Chapter 562 – Purple Ivy’s Memories
The poison in An Zheng’s body had been completely cleansed, and in Qi Tian’s words, it was simply … With such a woman taking care of An Zheng, it was as if he was a mischievous child with an almighty mother.
Everyone wanted to know where Purple Ivy actually came from and also wanted to know the ending of the top floor of the ninety-nine floors.
Oldman Huo was the only remaining Master Artifact Forger. Although he was no longer able to create powerful artifacts with his own hands, and even had the heart to repair some artifacts, his knowledge still remained. Speaking of experience, Qi Tian might have even more experience than the Oldman Huo, but Qi Tian’s speciality was not artifact forging. He had seen a lot of tools, but he had only seen their appearances and abilities. Oldman Huo, on the other hand, had habitually seen the construction of artifacts.
“The opening of the bottle can be rotated, but it can only be rotated when the bottle is connected.”
Oldman Huo said, “You probably never noticed that the mouth of the bottle perfectly fits the bottom of the bottle. The groove at the bottom of the bottle doesn’t seem to have any value at all. Only when the opening of the bottle was aligned with the groove could the scale be turned. When you previously stacked the bottles, most people would habitually twist back and forth a few times to see if they were stable. When you twist the bottle, the opening and the bottom match, and when you turn the bottle, you twist the scale to the maximum. ”
He looked at the four bottles in front of him, his eyes filled with admiration. “To think that a supreme expert whose cultivation has reached the level of an Immortal Emperor could actually be such a valiant craftsman. Logically speaking, there were specializations in martial arts. One’s energy was limited. If one focused wholeheartedly on cultivation, there would naturally not be much time left for one to obtain a life-saving tool. If he were to wholeheartedly study crafting, then his cultivation would be left behind. Immortal Emperor Purple Ivy ieerless genius. ”
An Zheng replied: “Same type as me.”
The Oldman Huo laughed and said, “You are also an unparalleled genius, but your heart is too muddled. However, this is the place where you are luckier than Purple Ivy. He was lonely. Lonely people were more likely to be immersed in something. The creators were the same. Most of them were lonely. You are not alone, so in terms of some accomplishments, you may not be as good as Purple Ivy. ”
An Zheng acknowledged his as he turned to look at Qu Liuxi.
Oldman Huo continued to introduce the four bottles: “That is to say, every two bottles can be combined and then opened. At least two bottles can cause Star Seizer Pavilion to appear. Furthermore, the size of the Starseizing Hall can be controlled. I will now connect the two bottles at the top and set the scale properly.
Oldman Huo picked up the top two bottles: “The first bottle containree. I guessed that its root is the allegory. The second bottle contained a house, which meant home and stability. The third bottle was a ship, which meant to roam and to drift. The fourth bottle was empty … I think it must be the loneliness and loss of direction after reaching a certain height. ”
He connected the bottle and slowly twisted it.
Everyone felt dazed for a moment beforall building appeared in front of them.
The Oldman Huo said, “The most ingenious part of the Starplucking Tower’s design is that even if the two bottles on top are connected together, it still wouldn’t be a fault. In fact, the bottom of each bottle is like the foundation of a house. That’s why I said, the design and construction of this Starpicker Pavilion was so ingenious. ”
He stretched out his hand and said, “Come, help me in. I also want to see how grand this great person’s life is.”
There were no targets in the Heaven Defying Seal, so there was no need to control them. Everyone entered the Starseizing Hall.
As they walked, An Zheng and the others recounted the past Purple Ivy had seen before. Then, they continued to watch from the place they saw the last time.
Starting from the sixtieth floor, the stories that Purple Ivy travelled the world. The more they looked, the more shocked they were, because they realized that Purple Ivy’s style of conduct was extremely similar to An Zheng’s. They were all jealous of evil, and their methods were swift and decisive. Therefore, everyone could not help but think about why Purple Ivy had become so depressed after entering the Immortal Palace at the late stage of the competition. He spent the entire day immersed in his own world not going out, and also asked about the hardships of the world.
When they reached the eightieth floor, everyone seemed to have found some answers.
“It seems like he was cheated.”
Chen Shaobai sighed, “This should be because I have traveled to the Central Plains. Looking at the customs and customs in the painting, this should be the area south of the Great Xi River. Of course, at that time, there was no Da Xi, so he didn’t know what dynasty it was. Unfortunately, no matter what dynasty it is, the human nature is the same. ”
From the frescoes, it seemed that Purple Ivy had helped an old woman who was bullied by villains. After teaching her a lesson, he left behind some gold and silver coins and prepared to leave. However, that old woman suddenly fell in front of him for some reason, and then her son or some other family member came over and stopped Purple Ivy. The Purple Ivy in the painting stood there, a group of people dressed in ordinary clothes surrounding him, preventing him from leaving. Everyone in the painting stretched out their hands, even the old woman who looked like she was in pain on the ground. And that was not begging at all, but blackmail.
Qi Tian sighed: “He helped others, but was bluffed by others. To people who do good, this is unbearable pain.”
“This kind of thing will never disappear, not in the past, not in the present, not in the future.”
Chen Shaobai said: “If it was me, I would have gone crazy from anger, and probably killed everyone in front of me in one breath. I helped the old woman, but her family stopped me from asking for money. The old woman was the same. She was lying on the ground with one hand grabbing onto Purple Ivy’s clothes and the other extending her hand.
Everyone walked to the next diagram and saw that the villains who were taught a lesson by Purple Ivy had returned, along with some officials. Seeing the official walked over, two women in the crowd actually untied a single piece of clothing, then threw themselves at Purple Ivy’s feet and cried bitterly. The old woman’s son went to the official and complained with a sorrowful expression.
Following the next diagram, the officials pulled out their swords and walked to Purple Ivy’s side, placing them on top of Purple Ivy’s neck. There was another official who was holding onthick chain. Purple Ivy seemed to be trying to defend himself, but no one believed him.
“Now I can probably speculate …” He helped the old woman, but he was blackmailed. The villains that he taught a lesson to ran to the officials, and the villains complained first. However, in order to ask for money, the old lady’s son and his family started to hook up with those villains. They were probably trying to say … It was Purple Ivy who injured the old lady, and those villains became heroes who saw injustice. ”
On the next diagram, Purple Ivy stood there somewhat numbly, and the officials also extended their hands. In the picture, countless people stood there with sinister expressions, they were no longer human faces but ghosts. They were all stretching their hands out as they glared at Purple Ivy. Of the three women who threw themselves at Purple Ivy, one was an old woman while the other two were young women.
This painting was incredibly bizarre, causing people to feel their hearts clench when they saw it.
When Purple Ivy drew this painting, everyone’s face was painted with the face of a devil. It could be imagined that even though many years had passed, Purple Ivy’s heart was still unable to calm down when he thought of this matter. And on the next picture, it made everyone’s scalps go numb … Just as Chen Shaobai had said, Purple Ivy had really killed everyone. He walked forward alone with a lot of heads in his hands. Behind him was a long red trail that looked likiver of blood.
In the distance, there was a corpse lying on the ground. As for those people who had lost their heads, they were still half-raising their bodies, with one hand extended out to support the ground …
“Was he wrong?”
Gu Qianye asked.
An Zheng remained silent for a long time before replying, “No matter what era it is under the law, he is wrong. However, under any law, there was no justice that could be given to him. Everyone said that he had done something bad, and there was no evidence that he was a good person. If that was the case, then a good person would be in trouble. Therefore … He was wrong in the law, and outside the law … I don’t know what to say. ”
Gu Qianye asked again, “If it were you, what would you do? Will you kill them? ”
An Zheng remained silent because he did not know the answer either.
The An Zheng of the past sought to eliminate all evil, and if he had encountered this kind of situation when the Ming Fa Si was taking the head seat, An Zheng really might have started a massacre. As he was the head of the Ming Fa Si, he did not need to explain anything to the officials. However, what if ordinary people encountered such a situation? What else could they do other than admit their bad luck? A massacre? Even if they could kill that many, the result would be the same. They would still die.
Not only would he die, he would even carry a curse on his back.
Seeing this, everyone’s heart became heavy.
“Perhaps, this is the reason why Purple Ivy entered the immortal palace and spent his days immersed in alcohol and sex, and didn’t go out to walk around. The more he thought about it, the more he realized that he couldn’t find an answer. Should the law be observed? Of course I should, but … In a situation like this, was Purple Ivy’s sentence wronged by the yamen’s law? Not really, because all the available witness and material evidence prove that he is the real villain. ”
An Zheng’s tone was very sad: “So I often wonder if the law protects good people. If so, why is it that so many bad guys are living freely and happily under the law? And the good people who follow the law for their entire lives, will there really be a good reward? ”
As Qu Liuxi held An Zheng’s hand, she felt that An Zheng’s heart was exceptionally cold.
Chen Shaobai said: “This is really just a small matter, because we can often meet each other now. However, such a small matter actually caused an Immortal Emperor expert to become confused and even fearful. He didn’t want to do any more good deeds. Even he was like that, and thinking about the ordinary people … So it seems that it’s the right thing to do with your life. ”
At this point, he felt depressed and hopeless.
An Zheng shook his head, “So, I will say this again from the beginning. The only way to change this situation is to have a group of people to maintain fairness. To suppress crime with the most severe laws and methods. ”
“Impossible.”
Chen Shaobai looked at An Zheng: “Think about your Ming Fa Si...”
An Zheng’s gaze dimmed. He knew that that was indeed impossible.
“It’s hard foerson to stay early in life, and what you ask is for a group of people to be impartial at all times. In the face of great temptation and benefits, no one could live up to their original intentions. Furthermore, if the people of Ming Fa Si were to meet with this kind of situation, from a legal perspective, he will also be guilty, and even the Ming Fa Si will not be able to help him. ”
Qi Tian looked outside at the sky. “Could it be that I can only hope that one day, a person can rid themselves of that evil thought?”
“Just relying on one person.”
An Zheng took a deep breath, “Relying on one person, relying on one person …”
He repeated it three times, but no one knew what he was thinking.
