Chapter 186 - Anomalies

"Alright, alright, don't be angry anymore. Just now, the atmosphere was so tense. In order to ease the tension, the two of us played with you for a while. Why are you so angry?" Seeing that I might really be angry, the little ghost hurriedly floated in front of me and began to console me.

However, to this little brat's words, I only indifferently glanced at the little ghost and did not reply. The two of them had lied to me in a partnership, and yet, you still dare to not make me angry?

"Earlier, you said that I was unable to see through such a small flaw. What flaw are you talking about?" After a moment of silence, I asked the little demon and female ghost this question.

I'm really curious now. What flaws? All three of them saw through them, but I was the only one who could do so.

"Didn't you notice that out of the three doors, two of them were dark, and only one of them had a hint of light?" When my words came to this point, the female ghost did not continue speaking to me.

However, just from those few words alone, I understood that this flaw is truly obvious.

After thinking about it, I also decided to forgive the little demon and the female ghost. I also knew about this matter and couldn't blame the little demon and the female ghost.

After all, what the two of them said was right. I couldn't even see such a small problem.

"Alright, alright, let's hurry up and do something. Let's hurry up and finish what you have to do, I still have to go back." I couldn't stand to lose face, so I walked straight to the front.

Seeing the interaction between me, female ghost, and the little demon, the master could only follow behind me and shake his head helplessly. After sighing, he chose to follow me in the end.

After all … No matter what, I am still his disciple. No matter how foolish Master feels that I am, he still has to protect me, no?

"I didn't expect that you would really come." When Master and I pushed open the door and entered the room, we saw a person sitting on the sofa looking at us from the direction of the door. After we entered, he smiled and said to us.

Rather than saying those words to us, it would be more accurate to say that those words were actually directed at my master alone.

"How can I not come when you've done such a thing?" His master began to calm down when he heard that person's words, and said this to that person in a gentle tone.

I turned to look at my master, feeling the calm before the storm.

"Since you've already given me the item, then I'll take care of it myself. Since that's the case, why are you looking for me again?" After hearing his master's words, that person stood up and walked step by step to his front as he asked this.

"Don't forget, your life was saved by me." After a pause, the man continued to speak to his master.

As I stood there, listening to their conversation, I was suddenly very curious.

How did he save Master? He actually made his master owe him such a huge favor.

"Although I gave this thing to you back then, but … I also told you not to use him to do evil things, but what about you? " His master was slightly taller than that person, so when he looked down on that person from above, his temperament was clearly much more superior.

This is the first time I've seen such a shameless person.

He had obviously done so many heinous things, yet now … He even took everything for granted.

"Those who come are all guests. Come, come in and have a seat. I'll make some tea for you all and then we'll sit down and have a nice chat." After they looked at each other for a long time, that person said this to his master.

Why did he suddenly become so courteous?

I looked at my teacher in bewilderment. What was going on? However, there must be demons behind all these abnormal events. It must not be a good thing.

"I say, Old Meng, it's been so many years since we last met. Your skills in brewing tea are just as good as it was in the past." After tasting the tea personally brewed by Old Meng, his master praised it.

"It's alright, it's fine. I haven't brewed tea in so many years. I'm afraid my craftsmanship is already inferior to that of the past." After hearing his master's words of praise, the Old Meng politely replied.

I sat on the sofa and stared at my master and Old Meng for a long time. I couldn't understand why the two of them, who were glaring at each other just a moment ago, would suddenly become so courteous.

It seemed to me that a good friend whom I hadn't seen for years had suddenly met.

However … Since Master is able to suppress his anger and exchange pleasantries with this so-called Old Meng, then — I believe Master must have his own reasons. As for me … Of course, he just needed to sit at the side and cooperate with his master.

"Don't you have any thoughts of repenting now?" I sat to the side and listened to my master and Old Meng courteously chat for a long time. Finally, I got to the point, and immediately got my spirits up as I sat to the side and listened to their conversation.

I had the feeling that the two of them didn't fight, that they were the abnormal kind, but now they made me feel like I was in outer space, like I was meeting an alien.

He felt that his brain capacity was already insufficient.

Didn't they say that enemies would turn red when they met? Why was it that when these two met, not only were they not jealous, they were even so courteous?

"In this world, no one is responsible for their own deaths. Everyone is looking for money, so what's wrong with me?" After hearing his Master's question, Old Meng took a sip of tea from the teacup on the table and slowly said to his Master.

Listening to Old Meng's words, I actually felt that what he said made a lot of sense.

This was because what the Old Meng said was correct. In this society, everyone looked at money, and it was the type that people did not care about themselves, but was instead cursed by the heavens.

If one were to think from this angle, Old Meng did not do anything wrong.

But standing in front of socialist morality and humanity, Old Meng had truly done wrong.

Wasn't it a mistake to hurt so many people, even causing others to lose their lives, for one's own benefit?

"You really have no regrets?" Hearing Old Meng's words, his master was also a little surprised, and after looking at him for a long while, he finally asked.

Right now, there was already a human life involved. Could it be … Is he still unrepentant?
