Chapter 1437 Justice and Distortion

Xia De pushed the door directly and entered the stables. The horses, who were neighing uncomfortably because of the noise, immediately became quiet because of Xia De's smell.

The scene where the horses were quiet as soon as Xia De walked in made the two confronting people look at the door in surprise.

The thin moonlight could only illuminate a small area of ​​the stable door, and the kerosene lamp hanging on the wall could not illuminate the shadow on Shad's face.With his boots stepping on the dry grass on the ground, Xia De put the wine glass on the stone fence of the stable next to him:

"Isn't it too rude to kill people here?"

"you again?"

Stone Oxenfurt looked at him in surprise:
"How do I feel, I can meet you everywhere? Didn't I send a servant to tell you that we have an appointment to see you tomorrow?"

"Yes, see you tomorrow, so what are you doing?"

Xia De looked at the fat man on the ground who wanted to call for help.Oxenfurt kicked the fat man with his boots in disgust. The latter covered his arms and screamed on the ground:
"I was wrong, I know I was wrong!"

"John Watson, if you have been professing to be just, leave this matter alone."

Xia De did not have a sense of justice, he must stop the other party's behavior, but asked:

"I'm very interested in the grievances between you and him. Let me guess. He owed you tens of thousands of crowns but didn't pay back the money, and then you found him playing Rhodes in the casino? Or, he stole your things? "

"neither."

Oxenfurt kicked the man on the ground again, who sobbed and dared not move in Shad's direction:

"You know, I have a pretty good group of friends."

"Minions."

Shad corrected.

"If you want to hear a story, keep your mouth shut."

Oxenfurt said in a low voice, because his back was facing the only kerosene lamp in the stable, his entire body and face were in shadow, and the pitchfork in his hand never put down:

"He hurt the sister of a friend of mine, and used the Rhodes card debt trap to force others to sell themselves to repay the debt. In other words, this is legal usury. My friend didn't ask me for help at first, and I recently I just found out about this.”

"When did you have such a sense of justice?"

Xia De asked suspiciously.

"Sense of justice? According to you, if I don't care if my subordinate's family is hurt, how can I do business in Randall Valley? This bastard has been avoiding me for the past few weeks, but I Knowing that he will definitely come to this banquet, he wants to curry favor with those nobles, you see, I will catch him right now?"

After speaking, he turned his head and looked at Xia De:

"What, you want to stop me?"

"I generally don't get involved in things like this, which have nothing to do with me and neither side is a good person. Once I get involved, no matter who I help, I will become like you."

"But if you don't save me, it's equivalent to helping Orson. Oh!"

The fat man on the ground was kicked again, this time he was kicked violently in the stomach, he bowed his waist and trembled on the ground, seemingly speechless.

"I'd like to know, in terms of your morality and sense of justice, how do you judge what I'm about to do?"

Oxenfurt raised the pitchfork, a difficult-to-sight weapon that was dangerous in close combat.

"Judgment?"

Xia De thought for a while:
"If what you just said is true, then he must have done something bad. Since he has done something like a legal usury once, it must not be the first time. So in theory, he really deserves to die. But .”

Xia De looked at the scene in front of him.

"You want to say, let the law sanction him?"

Oxenfurt sneered.

"I wouldn't say that, after all, I have done a lot of illegal things myself.

I mean, even if you want to kill someone, don't be on someone else's estate.Even if you killed him, turned him into stone and buried him in your garden, it was impossible not to leave a trace.And once someone finds out that someone died here tonight, Prince William and Princess Margaret may have a headache. "

"Buried Haila in the garden, did you even tell you this kind of thing?"

Oxenfurt narrowed his eyes and looked at Xia De, as if trying to see something from his appearance, but Xia De raised his eyebrows:

"That's not the point."

"The point is, you don't want me to kill him here?"

Xia De thought for a while:
"That's understandable."

"I thought that you would not hesitate to fight me and save him."

Oxenfurt said, and dropped the pitchfork in his hand.Because the ground is covered with dry grass, the sound of the fork landing is not loud.

The fat man on the ground thought he had escaped the threat to his life, but in the next second, as Oxenfurt's boots stepped on his palm, amidst the screams like killing a pig, the fat man's body The palm was petrified first, and then the petrified parts quickly spread along the palm until his entire body was turned into stone.

"I remember, your hobby is sculpture? When I went to your house to pick up the agreed statue, I saw the statue you made in the studio."

Xia De picked up his wine glass and said, looking at the stone sculpture on the ground.

"You said that, I broke it. I am always dissatisfied with my work, so I always break it and remake it."

As Oxenfurt said, he bent down and pressed the forehead of the stone statue, and then ripples appeared on the ground until the stone statue was completely swallowed into the ground.

"This method is really good. After you go home, you should be able to take it out of the soil directly?"

Xia De suddenly asked again:
"If I remember correctly, the word 'Stone', in the native colloquial language of Randall's Valley, sounds very similar to 'stone'. I'm curious why you would use this name."

"On this point, you should ask the ghost, not me. It also praised my name."

Speaking of standing up and preparing to leave, Xia De stood still, and when Oxenfurt was about to walk out of the stable, he suddenly asked:
"You have done so many things and have so many enemies, don't you believe that sooner or later, you will be retaliated against?"

Oxenfurt twisted his upper body and looked at him:

"You probably forgot that I am immortal. Although I am not a ring warlock, I am not an ordinary person either."

"But you can still feel the pain."

Shad pointed out:

"The last time I attended the wedding of Enriquez and his wife with you, when we dueled under the dead tree on the top of the hill, I could see clearly that you are not incapable of feeling pain. You can enjoy any kind of pleasure, you can appreciate the heat I feel like my heart is beating in my chest, but I live every day as if it is the last day. I am curious how this attitude towards life is developed.”

Oxenfurt looked at Shad with a gloomy face:

"Don't forget to come to my manor tomorrow night and take away [Founding Earth]."

After finishing speaking, he left. Xia De took another sip of the wine in his hand, and felt that even the wine smelled like horse manure:
"Sure enough, when it comes to the heart, he doesn't want to talk to me. There is indeed a problem with his heart."

[Heart of Stone? 】

"It won't be that simple."

Shad spilled the remaining red wine in the glass into the feed trough of the stable, and then also planned to leave.However, he took a step forward before turning around in surprise and looking at the darkest corner of the stable, which he hadn't noticed just now.

"You won't have been standing here since just now, have you?"

"No, I know that your senses are very sensitive, and it is impossible to try to eavesdrop on your conversation."

Mr. Lathers came out of the shadows, and he still had a sound when he walked, because his body was actually solid, not a phantom of the soul.

However, this is not resurrection from the dead. The sound of this body walking is too "heavy", which means that the density of the body is much higher than that of normal people.

"Since you took the initiative to show up, the restlessness of the earth has been appeased?"

Shad asked hesitantly, but Mr. Lathers shook his head slightly:

"No, the situation is more serious. It is expected that in the early morning of Saturday, with the northern part of Randall Valley as the epicenter, there will be a major earthquake no less than 300 years ago. At that time, the distortion of the ground will enter the fourth stage."

The guardian once said personally that there are only five stages of earth distortion, and the last stage is an irreversible disaster:

"The sign of the fourth stage: All the situations that happen in the Randall Valley will happen in any corner of the material world with equal probability. At the same time, there will be serious natural disasters in the Randall Valley area, such as storms, heavy snow, and mudslides. Some ancient monsters will be revived, and you can understand that the fossils have been given life."

Xia De sighed slightly:

"Saturday morning, what a coincidence. I plan to deal with the demon on Friday night. After the demon is dealt with, can you come to see me and hold a ceremony in the early morning of Saturday."

The Guardian neither agrees nor disagrees:

"It's not me who meets you now, but an incarnation of clay. I can't leave the heart of the earth now. I need to rely on the heart of the earth to maintain my stability, and the heart of the earth also needs me to maintain it. No one knew that the complete Heart of the Earth was shattered when the ancient god left, and what is left now is the most complete part. The collapse of the Earth was already preordained.

But don't worry, we're prepared ahead of time. "

"Don't tell me these things. That is to say, after I finish fighting the demons, I still have to go to the heart of the earth to find you in person and wake you up?"

Luvia said that the chosen ceremony of the earth is best performed in a place that can directly connect to the heart of the earth.So if it is done directly next to the Heart of the Earth, it seems to be the best choice.

The guardian also seemed to see what Shad meant:
"The chosen one's ceremony must be on the earth. This is the information I got."

The chosen ones, especially the first candidates, can always get some news that others don't know:
"Moreover, the situation in the heart of the earth is very complicated now, and the distortion there is more serious than any other place. Even you may not be able to reach there."
