Chapter Thirty-One: Resentment Arises from the Heart

  It was just this moment that made me see clearly, and I suddenly realized that something was wrong with this sunglasses-wearing guy. From the time he came out, there were always flaws, but I didn't think about it in that direction. I was really blinded by fear, if I hadn't seen his smile, I would have jumped down directly.

  Let me think for a few minutes, he came from the direction outside the village, which shouldn't be the case, and he even asked me what the Gu was in my hand? If it were really Mo Jing Xia, he should have taken the Gu from me, and why did he tell me to let go of that big turtle? If I'm not mistaken, Mo Jing Xia went to Feng Men Village to deliver this big turtle to the witch. It seems that the person in front of me is definitely not Mo Jing Xia. Thinking about it now, I really want to slap myself hard, my own foolishness has reached a certain level. Only when I was about to be killed by him did I realize this point.

  Is this sunglasses hero a fake?! Thinking of this, the fear in my heart grew even stronger. If this is a fake sunglasses hero, then where did the real one go?!

  "Why aren't you jumping yet?" The fake masked man looked at me for half a day without moving and asked me coldly.

  Now I'm 100% sure he's fake, but I still can't expose him because I don't have the ability. If I expose him now, I'll die even faster. What should I do now? The most suffocating thing in life is probably this. A bad person is right in front of me, and I know he's evil, but I still can't reveal his true nature.

  "I always feel like it's going to be very hot in here, I don't know if it's true or false." I asked tentatively.

  At this time, the fake masked knight slanted his eyes and said to me: "How can you know if you don't try?"

  "Why don't you go down first and try it out? If nothing happens, I'll jump down too." I forced a calm demeanor and smiled at him.

  "Are you jumping?" The fake sunglasses-wearing guy stared at me and asked.

  "Hehe, I'm just kidding, I'll dance, I'll dance." I muttered.

  His appearance is too terrifying, and I can only say that it's not that I'm not clever, but humans are really at a loss when facing fear. Standing on the edge, I looked at the black swamp with a lot of emotion.

  Tang Bingxue doesn't know how much effort she spent to pull me back from death, and now I'm dying again in such a miserable way. At this moment, the scene of my childhood suddenly flashed before my eyes, when Zhang Bao and Wang Hui bullied Wang Xiaoya together. And suddenly, there was a very strong idea in my heart, I want to jump in, I must jump in...

  Just as I closed my eyes and was about to jump into the swamp, someone suddenly kicked me in the butt. It directly sent me flying up, and then rolling on the ground. At that time, my butt couldn't be described, because this kind of pain had never happened before.

  At that time, I wanted to shout out loud, but I endured it. However, this time I was thrown off, and my butt probably got bruised. But because of this, I also became more clear-headed. I thought, what happened to me just now? How could this be? And at this moment, the person behind me suddenly walked towards me quickly!

  "Don't be reckless! Don't be reckless!"

  What I'm worried about is that this fake masked hero will turn into some kind of terrifying monster, and I want to make excuses for myself, it's really not that I'm timid or weak. It's just that the things that have happened to me are unprecedented in history, it's simply terrifying.

  Who would have thought that this sunglasses-wearing guy suddenly pulled me up and punched my abdomen, but what surprised me was that the punch wasn't very heavy. It was like a girl's punch!

  He immediately shouted at me in anger: "Are you an idiot? How could you think of jumping into the swamp?"

  "Ah?!" I was stunned at the time and asked in confusion, "You won't let me jump?"

  "Get lost! Don't annoy me. Where did you hide that big turtle with us?" The sunglasses guy said to me in a bad mood.

  It wasn't until he said this sentence that I reacted and excitedly asked: "Are you the Sunglasses Knight?"

  The sunglasses-wearing guy had been circling around me three times on the ground, and said to me helplessly: "Can't you just stop talking nonsense? Let me show you the Gu."

  While speaking, he handed over the Gu that was carried on his body to me. This is undoubtedly the real Mo Jing Xia. I estimate that if it were someone else, they wouldn't be able to kick me flying either. At this time, I started looking around to find the fake Mo Jing Xia from earlier, but there wasn't even a shadow left.

  "What are you looking for? There's only demons here, no beauties." The sunglasses-wearing hero had a helpless look again.

  "Shades Hero!" At this time, I directly hugged him in my arms.

  He was taken aback at first, then hastily pushed me away and said: "Hey, stop messing around, I've already told you I don't like men. Now I'm asking you, where did you put that turtle? You promised me, if the turtle is with you, you'll live; if the turtle is not with you, you'll die. And my gu, return my gu to me as well."

  This is really the sunglasses knight, he didn't even give me a chance to catch my breath, and kept asking me nonstop.

  "It's all gone, everything is gone." His question made me feel like crying at this moment.

  "What's going on? Is everything gone?" The sunglasses-wearing guy was getting a bit agitated, he directly clenched his fist as if to hit me, but ultimately put it down and asked me, "What's the matter?"

  "Just now, someone who looks exactly like you just appeared, he..."

  I poured out everything I had just experienced to the Sunglasses Knight, and after listening, his expression was shocked. He muttered to himself: "How strange, what kind of person are you, that you've actually developed a heart demon?"

  "What's going on, Sunglasses Knight? What do you mean by 'heart demon'?" I asked impatiently.

  He let out a long sigh, pointing at me with his finger and said: "Really can't do anything about you, originally I thought it was the same road, letting you be a porter. Didn't expect that you're not simple, don't just stand there, first follow me to find that big turtle king and then we'll talk while walking."

  I know he's furious right now, having lost both of his treasures; anyone would be angry in his shoes.

  As he followed him back to find Wang Ba, he told me that grievances arise from the mind, and what is called a heart demon is an evil spirit hidden in one's heart. It refers to things that have been lingering in one's mind for a long time, which may be hatred, greed, delusion, regret, fear, etc. After being stimulated greatly, everyone will develop a heart demon. In other words, everyone has it! However, once the grievances of the heart demon take shape and reach a certain scale, they will erupt.

  He suddenly stopped when he said that, and I looked at him in confusion and asked: "So that means everyone has a heart demon, but mine ran out on its own."

  "Ah!" The sunglasses-wearing hero sighed and said, "I won't waste my breath on you anymore. I'll just tell you straight out. As for Wang Xiaoya's regret, it has been festering in your heart all these years. Recently, you experienced a severe shock, and the two combined will give birth to a terrifying entity that will make you feel guilty, fearful, and confused, ultimately devouring your heart. This is an extremely formidable thing, and as far as I know, no one has been able to dispel the Heart Devil in the current Yin-Yang techniques."

  "This sunglasses hero said that I have this lump in my heart, and I muttered: 'Yes, just now it made me stupid, I actually didn't know that was another you.'"

  "Go away, stop making excuses, you're not being fooled by your heart demon, you're just stupid."

  "That demon in his heart has appeared once, will it not come out again?"

  The sunglasses-wearing man looked serious, his chin tucked in, and said to me: "Since this thing has appeared, it will appear frequently from now on, and no matter what method is used, it cannot be eliminated. If you don't die, it will use various methods to torture you."

  "Ah?!" At that time, I felt numbness in my head and body.

  "Stop being foolish, today it's me by your side, who knows who it'll be tomorrow? Your days are probably going to be tough."

  This time, when Mirror Knight spoke, his mouth made a "tsk" sound, and now my head is like a mess. The matter of the Nine-Tailed Fox King Xiao Ya has not been settled yet, and now another heart demon appears, oh no? You might as well kill me directly! Just then, Mirror Knight patted my shoulder, I thought he was going to comfort me, but instead, he looked worried and said: "Brother, don't think about the heart demon for now, there's something even more terrifying in front of you." "What is it?" Mirror Knight said furiously: "You quickly find my Big King Octopus for me, or I'll never let you off!"
