C255 kill to stop killing (1/2)

There is a philosophy called killing to stop; there is a theory called using violence to deal with violence.

There are many things in the world that don't make sense, and this is one of them.

Xiao Jian's heart suddenly flew back to the scene of the massacre. The man with red hair had muscles as red as blood.

”No!” Xiao Jian painfully covered his eyes, but the bloody scene still lingered in his mind, it did not go away!

”Calm down!” Chang Jing forcefully pulled away his hand, and looked him straight in the eyes. ”Calm down, don't be afraid! Look at me — don't you understand what I mean? There has never been perfection in this world, everything has to pay the price! ”

”And then?” Xiao Jian laughed coldly, despising himself from the bottom of his heart, ”And then, I can use this open and aboveboard excuse to kill that many people?!”

”Your heart demon is too heavy!” Chang Jing sighed, ”It's too heavy, is there a need to brood over this matter? If it wasn't for your mania, more people would have died! I know you still don't forget about Feng Zui's death, but this is a war, a cruel war, who can guarantee that the next person to be sacrificed won't be themselves?! It's still the same, if not for your mania, then Feng Zui would not have been the only one to die. Don't you understand that if we can't pursue perfection, we can only part from it! ”

”But …” Xiao Jian's heart wavered, and he muttered, ”But I killed so many people, so many …”

Chang Jing looked at him silently.

He finally asked him in a neutral tone, ”Then do you want to stand by and watch as more of your own people die in their place?”

Hearing that, Xiao Jian trembled, he was stunned on the spot, but Chang Jing quietly left the place.

The next day was sunny and the snow had melted. The weather was cold.

Three to five groups of merchants walked out of the quiet Wind Moon City. They were either driving the horse carriage or carrying bags on their backs as they hurried forward. Occasionally, there were a few thin and yellow skinned refugees that strenuously followed behind the caravan.

At this moment, the wind and moon were temporarily in peace, and the citizens who were immersed in the joy of victory were beginning to realize that after many years of war, the food stored in their homes could no longer support an increasingly difficult life. Of course, this also included those cities that were occupied by Mace. Compared to the Aragorn which was short of materials, the profits from going to those cities which were injected with Mace Merchant were much greater.

This is no wonder, no matter where and when, the practice of ”people eat the sky”!

And today, the number of merchants leaving the city was much more than usual, and the bodies of the merchants were much thinner than the previous ones, and they were generally younger, just like those Magic Student who had rendered meritorious service in the war — Hehe, of course it couldn't be them, who would dare to leave the city to do business during such a tense time, unless they didn't want to live anymore!

However, there were some people who did not wish to live among them. For example, there was a caravan of a beautiful young lady wearing fiery red clothing on the merchant car!

It was clear from her actions that she was Huo Wu!

”Hurry up and change your clothes!” The middle-aged man in front of him didn't know why, but his voice was hoarse and he said, ”You're already out of the city. If you keep on dressing like this, you'll be recognized after just a few steps!”

”Heh, teacher, you're talking nonsense again!” Huo Wu stood up and pointed her finger in front of her, ”Charge!” There are no enemies within a five kilometer radius, who would I wear such ugly clothes for?! ”

”Ugly?!” The driver lowered his head and looked at his clothes, ”Hehe, it is indeed a bit ugly …” ”No, quick, quickly change out of your clothes. No matter how ugly, you have to put it on!”

He pulled out a flowery shirt from his backpack and threw it to her, saying, ”You have to be clear, we're not here for sightseeing, so why are you being so particular? If they were to be discovered, then all of Feng Yue and even the Ara would be finished! ”

”Then... Can't I just put it on? ” Huo Wu felt wronged and took over the clothes, she went into the carriage and muttered, ”Alright, alright, I'll wear it, wood teacher is just a wooden log, I can explain anything, how can it be so reasonable?”

Seeing that she had obediently gone into the carriage, Chang Jing (of course, it was the pitiful guy driving the carriage) couldn't help but to whip the carriage forward, flying straight ahead!

The horse carriage quickly arrived at the nearby city and was stopped by the soldiers outside the city gates. A very long line had already formed in front of them.

”Everyone be careful not to leak anything!” Chang Jing lowered her voice and instructed the people inside the carriage.

”It's fine. If worst comes to worst, we can just rush in. What's so special about that? I don't believe that there's anyone here that can block our joint attack!”
