The puppets' stage play

Chapter 171 Ordinary people, encirclement and suppression

In the fragrant tea room, a young man and an old man sat opposite each other.

"...So Zhuqing said this, what do you think, Master Yu?" Lin Dao smiled broadly, but stared at him closely.

"It's not bad for him to say that! I am indeed such a person."

The old man looked gentle and elegant, with no trace of sullenness on his face. He picked up the tea cup and tasted the light tea with a calm look on his face, and his eyes were full of gentleness.

Zhou Zhuqing sat aside with the Song brothers and Shen Daoyan, watching the two of them having tea, feeling a little solemn in their hearts.

"Teacher Yu seems to be enjoying himself, which is really enviable." Lin Dao admired on the surface, but secretly cursed the old fox in his heart.

He suddenly appeared in his house with a few people. He originally wanted to shock them, but unexpectedly, their pupils only trembled slightly and then calmed down.

Just as Zhu Qing said, the other party did not notify the academy, but instead waved to several people to drink together. Lin Dao then told his own side's evaluation of him, trying to pry into the other party's true and false, but he did not expect that the other party had no reaction at all.

Yu Sheng moved the tea set away from his mouth and shook it gently in his hand while looking at Lin Dao, who was frowning slightly across from him. He felt a little funny in his heart. The other person was still a little naive and thought he could easily control him.

After all, as long as he was that person's child and as long as he didn't do anything inappropriate, no one would do anything to him, not even Kang Tainian.

He was still not as good as those two people. He sighed and drank the remaining tea in his hand. Suddenly he felt a bitter taste in his mouth. He frowned and took a few sips of white water for brewing before feeling relieved.

Some people may accuse this approach of being wrong or something, but he is arty and doesn't care about that.

Thinking of this, he got excited to talk, and he said to Lindao with a smile.

"In that case, let me tell you a little story. You should also know about my father." There was doubt in his words, but everyone nodded. Who didn't know the famous dean of Qingjing Academy.

"My father, well, although the world thinks highly of him, in my opinion he is a coward."

"When I was young, I often heard him talk about how man can conquer nature, and he told me not to accept my fate, but to dare to fight hard. As I got older, he told me that I should obey fate, follow the trend of the times, and not go against the general trend."

"Do you think this is funny? Haha, it's really funny, but I was stupid at the time and only listened to half of his words. That's destiny."

Yu Sheng's words paused, and there was some reminiscence in his eyes.

Several people looked at each other intently, with thoughts on their faces.

"I think people's decisions are actually predestined. All the decisions we make seem to come from our free will, but they are actually God's arrangements."

"Suddenly, I felt that my life was all gloomy and I naturally lost my motivation, so I just wanted to be 'real'!" In a sense, I am also amazed at how you people can keep struggling in life, even though all your efforts are in vain.

Everyone's faces were a bit ugly, but looking at Yu Sheng's extremely sincere face, they felt ridiculous in their hearts.

"So you were discouraged by your imaginary enemy, and ended up living like this?" Lin Dao stood up in disappointment, looking down at Yu Sheng, whose expression was blank, and then laughed, with disdain for the other party's words in his eyes.

"Compared to this statement, I am more willing to believe that you are a villain who is purely seeking profit, or just a conspirator with evil intentions. This is more acceptable to me."

Faced with Lin Dao's unkind words, Yu Sheng waved his hands repeatedly, his face full of helplessness.

"I'm just an ordinary person. I'm not like you who think about the world all day long. I just want to protect my own one-third of an acre. What's wrong with pursuing interests as an ordinary person? Isn't it a natural thing?"

"It's important for a person to know himself, not to lose his life for some insignificant things." Yu Sheng's face was full of contempt, and he looked up at Lin Dao with a legitimate expression.

"Let's stop here. Zhu Qing is right. I shouldn't have expected anything from you from the beginning." Lin Dao sighed deeply, turned around and left. Everyone was stunned and quickly followed.

They held hands and disappeared into the house out of thin air.

"Young people are so angry," Yu Sheng complained in a low voice, and then his expression changed.

"However, it is indeed a miraculous method. No wonder the Zhou family would condescend to kneel down~" His eyes flashed and his expression was filled with a mocking smile.

"Forget it, it has nothing to do with me, I just need to be business as usual."

Thinking of something, Yu Sheng's smile faded and he sighed quietly.

"If I didn't know the inside story, why would I do this to myself?" He smiled bitterly, sat slumped on the ground, and stared blankly ahead.

"The Yu family is one of the chosen envoys. Our will is irrelevant from the beginning. What can I do?"

"As an ordinary person, I can only pursue those interests. Apart from that, I can't do anything else."

His eyes were a little blurry. "Brother, it's easy for you to leave. You gave me your responsibilities, but I can't do it. I'm just an ordinary person. I can't be as good as you."

Yu Sheng's voice was slightly trembling, and he told the grievances in his heart to the empty air.

"In the end, I'm still the guy who accomplishes nothing and can only fail. I told you so a long time ago..."

He lay on the ground without any image, his eyes closed tightly, sleepiness gradually rising.

After a while.

"zzzzzzzz" A slight breathing sound sounded.

There is a passage where the surrounding scenery is blurry and the scenery of the college can be vaguely seen.

The bodies of Lin Dao and the others were glowing. Except for the leader Lin Dao, who looked calm, the others looked more or less nervous.

The glazed light continued to spread from everyone, ripples spread to the passage, sporadic small black holes appeared from time to time, and dangerous auras came from inside, and they were immediately destroyed.

Lin Dao suddenly stopped and looked back. The breath somewhere behind him gradually became weaker, and the active thinking aura gradually extinguished.

Are you asleep? He thought quietly in his heart. He didn't care about the other party's attitude. Although for him, a small trick could make the other party obedient, but that was not his style.

He still hopes to work hard to the end, unless... he really can't catch up, then there is no morality.

Lin Dao is only following the morality in his heart, everything else is external. Even if he is pursuing the law now, it does not hinder his inner view, which is to do whatever he wants without violating the rules.

"Lin...Senior Lin..." Shen Daoyan's stammering voice came from behind. Lin Dao stopped his thoughts and turned to look, the corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously.

"You don't have to be so harsh, just call me Brother Lin." He imitated the man's approach in his memory and tried his best to show a gentle smile. He didn't know if it had any effect, but Lin Dao suddenly felt a little uneasy.

Perhaps sensing Lindao's sincerity, everyone gave the response Lindao wanted.

Shen Daoyan showed a reassuring smile and breathed a sigh of relief. Even the Song brothers, who had always looked tense, relaxed a little.

Even Zhou Zhuqing, who looked elegant and elegant, relaxed.

Shen Daoyan looked at the surrounding scenery. Judging from the changes in the blurry scenery, they were undoubtedly moving. Amidst the curiosity and hesitation in his heart, he finally made up his mind.

"Brother Lin, who are you? And why were you declared missing by the college? And there are all kinds of wonderful methods..." Shen Daoyan looked at each other in confusion, and even the other three couldn't help but secretly look at this side.

"Me?" Lindao pointed at himself and couldn't help but laugh a little when he saw several people nodding in unison with doubtful eyes.

He turned around with a nonchalant look on his face, "As you can see, he is an ordinary student."

"..." The four of them looked at Lin Dao with cold eyes, making the latter's face twitch.

Lindao scratched his head, his face a little embarrassed, "It's a long story..."

"Then let's make a long story short!" Zhou Zhuqing interrupted the other party's refusal, with a bit of contempt in his eyes.

"Okay, okay..." Lindao raised his hand helplessly, with a smile on his face.

"Have you ever heard of aliens?"

"..." Everyone looked at each other and expressed their willingness to listen.

"Then let me start from when I was a child. That was..." Lin Dao's eyes were full of memories and he told his past plainly.

After a while, everyone's eyes were filled with shock, but they had to believe it.

"So Brother Lin has received the teachings from heaven and earth, so he knows some special knowledge." Shen Daoyan asked quickly.

"This is natural!" Lin Dao nodded solemnly. In fact, he just made up a logical and harmonious story. If a few people knew that the suffering they had suffered for many years was controlled by others, who knows how many troubles would arise.

So Lin Dao simply combined a certain story he heard from the teacher and processed it into his own story. However, it seemed that some people did not believe it. He stared at a tall person among the people.

Zhou Zhuqing looked back coldly, his eyes filled with boredom. Lin Dao was really good at making things up.

This is of course. If he wants to get in contact with the other party, he will naturally investigate all aspects of the other party. Although the previous story became very exciting, he found several differences in the subtleties, and he suddenly understood.

"So? Why do you want to avoid the academy? Isn't it good to show up openly?" Zhou Zhuqing knew some of the situation, but it was not detailed. In order to clear up the doubts of the people around him, he asked openly.

Lindao glanced at the other party, his eyes a little sad.

"It's not that I wanted to be like this, but the college forced me to do so. On the evening of the 25th, as soon as I walked out of the victim's house, I was surrounded by cyan phantom lights, yellow bells, and ink-colored silhouettes. There are some other weird looking guys”

"A thick-ink team holding light sticks, some manic green beasts, and... dark gray masked people"

Zhou Zhuqing's hand trembled. Those were the three private guards of the academy. Without their permission... he couldn't help but fall silent.

Dean Kang...what's wrong with you...
