Changsheng: I can sell everything

Chapter 801: Sacrifice your life for justice? (Two in one)

Do you choose to hurt yourself or others?
Should we follow the path of selfishness to the end? Or should we put morality first and sacrifice our lives for justice?
This question is obviously an extremely difficult one for many people.

The numerous creatures present, whether they were humans or demons, whether they were the "followers" in the classroom or the geniuses on the vast ocean, when they thought about this question and put themselves in the situation, they couldn't help but feel a dilemma in an instant.

My scalp is tingling and my back is cold.

Choosing to sacrifice one's life for justice is actually against the nature of living things.

But if it is purely for selfish reasons, let's not talk about whether it can pass the test of one's own moral bottom line. Even if it can pass, there are actually few people who can be so "shameless" in public.

Many people can't help but wonder, if they were Yun Liuguang, what choice would they make?

When I think about it, I realize that this decision is really difficult.

But if you don't do it, you can't do it!
Because of similar situations, everyone present will likely face them in the future.

Some people secretly feel lucky that it is Yun Liuguang who is facing such a difficult problem, not themselves. Even if they will have to go through the test of difficult problems sooner or later, there is always a benefit of being late, right?
Yun Liuguang was silent for about three breaths.

Three breaths were a very short time, so short that he spoke without even thinking.

But three breaths seemed very long, so long that in these few short breaths, everyone's mind was in a thousand turns, and some people even simulated in their minds several times the choices they would make when facing difficult problems.

My heart and soul were in turmoil in an instant.

But Yun Liuguang said calmly: "I choose to let Uncle Wen Yun continue to answer the questions."

He chose to leave his fate of moving forward or backward to Wen Yun!
This means that Yun Liuguang took all the risk of punishment on himself, thus saving Wen Yun.

As soon as this answer came out, the wooden man on the stage rolled his eyes slightly and raised his eyelids slightly.

The movement of his eyelids was subtle, yet very noticeable due to his wooden, square body structure.

ka ka ka-

All the living beings present seemed to hear the clicking sound of mechanical twisting.

The next moment, human surprise appeared in the wooden man's eyes!
This was the first time that this wooden figure showed truly human-like emotional changes.

Song Ciwan noticed this and was immediately moved. He felt that the changes in the wooden man were very magical.

She thought to herself that the nodes of the wooden man's changes were easy to associate with -

Was it because of Yun Liuguang's selfless act, or his act of "sacrificing his life for righteousness" that the wooden man underwent such a subtle change?
Where does this subtle change end?

Is the “humanization” of the wooden man just a simulation, or will it really shed its mechanical stereotype at some point and possess “human” emotions?

As she thought and calculated, she had a vague and clearer guess about the existence of this Haoxu Fairy Island.

Looking at the wooden man again, he tapped the ruler in his hand, and his eyes returned to normal. The subtle change just now seemed to be just an illusion. His mechanical and stereotyped voice sounded again, saying: "Tianjiao Yun Liuguang, you chose to continue to let your follower Wen Yun answer the questions."

"Human Wen Yun, you have thirty seconds to answer the question. Please complete the answer within thirty seconds. If you fail to answer within the time limit, it will be treated as an incorrect answer."

Wen Yun stood nervously in front of the desk, shock and emotion still evident on his face.

The wooden man's urging made him open his mouth immediately, but his throat seemed to be blocked by something and he could not answer a single word.

He swallowed nervously several times, and when the thirty seconds were about to run out, he finally blurted out, "The people of Zheng lost a pearl!"

Yes, since it was a case of buying the box and returning the pearl, the man from Zheng naturally lost a pearl. Is there any problem with that?

That's no problem!

This is a good answer!

After answering the question, Wen Yun let out a long breath, and his heart, which had been hanging in the air, slowly calmed down.

He broke out in a cold sweat on his back. He was relieved after answering the question, but he couldn't help feeling nervous at the same time.

After all, although he felt that his answer should be correct, the wooden man had not yet judged the question.

So how will the wooden man judge the question? Will he judge that Wen Yun’s answer is correct?

Wen Yun let out a long breath, feeling nervous and expectant.

Inside and outside the classroom, many people are looking forward to it. How will the wooden man judge the questions?

The wooden man tapped the ruler lightly and continued to speak calmly, "Human Wen Yun, you answered the question incorrectly and failed to execute. Tianjiao Yun Liuguang, you will retreat one step into the Soul-Falling Abyss."

The wind suddenly rose on the sea, creating ripples and the disc under Yun Liuguang's feet immediately retreated backwards.

At the same time, thick black fog rose from under the disc and quickly wrapped around Yun Liuguang's body. Yun Liuguang let out a painful groan.

Wen Yun stood in front of the desk, lost and angry, "Impossible! How could I get the answer wrong? What's wrong with my answer? How did I do anything wrong?"

The wooden man said, "In exchange for the pearls, the man from Zheng lost a box of pearls, not just one pearl."

Wen Yun: …

Wen Yun suddenly felt as if he was struck by a bolt of lightning.

Yes, in the case of buying a box and returning the pearl, shouldn’t the man from Zheng have lost a box of pearls? Why did he take it for granted that the man from Zheng had lost only one pearl?

Why was he wrong?
Why did he clearly think of the key answer, but answered the question wrong because of a difference of one word?
A huge regret surged into Wen Yun's heart. Through the huge projection behind the wooden man, Wen Yun seemed to see Yun Liuguang struggling in pain in the black fog.

The endless evil energy was like a poisonous snake and a giant poisonous insect, shuttling through Yun Liuguang's bones, blood vessels, body and soul, interrupting the circulation of his qi and blood, biting the sword energy filling his meridians, and began to rapidly devour it.

It is difficult to describe how painful this would be, but Wen Yun seemed to be able to feel this pain.

Thousands of arrows pierced the heart, thousands of snakes bit it, and the cunning monsters tore through the eyes and suddenly rushed into the people's hearts.

Wen Yun screamed in pain, he quickly bent down and spat out a mouthful of blood in pain.

Tianyin immediately shouted worriedly, "Junior Brother Wen!"

He thought that Wen Yun had also been punished like Yun Liuguang, so he immediately questioned the wooden man: "When the executor answers a question incorrectly, aren't only the geniuses punished? Why is my junior brother Wen also being punished?"

The wooden man said calmly, "The executor Wen Yun was not punished. His injury and vomiting of blood were spontaneous behaviors, not punishment according to the classroom rules."

"What?" Tianyin uttered two words, and then fell silent.

He understood.

It turned out that Wen Yun was not punished. The reason why he vomited blood was because he answered the question wrongly by one word, which harmed Yun Liuguang, causing him mental damage and vomiting blood in pain.

Tianyin understood Wen Yun’s pain in an instant and he sighed.

He did not try to comfort Wen Yun either, because after putting himself in Wen Yun's shoes and thinking from his perspective, he felt that if he were to face the same situation as Wen Yun, he would probably feel just as miserable.

Tianyin turned his gaze to the projection behind the wooden man, and looked worriedly at the cloud flowing light wrapped in black air in the projection.

Without noticing, the wooden man's eyes moved again, and he seemed to be more lively in a trance.

Just when the living beings thought that the wooden man would mechanically switch places again and select the next round of chess players, they heard the wooden man say, "Excuse me, Wen Yun, you got the question wrong but were not punished. Why are you so distressed that you vomit blood?"

Why would a wooden man ask such a question? Is this a normal question, or is he just curious?
When the wooden man asked, Wen Yun was holding his chest in pain, hunching his back and breathing softly.

Hearing the wooden man's question, Wen Yun immediately raised his head, with an unspeakable hatred and surprise still on his face. He was stunned for a moment before uttering one word: "I..."

Wen Yun uttered a word and then laughed.

Then, he straightened up, put down his hand that was covering his heart, and asked the wooden man: "Do I have to answer this question? Will there be a reward if I answer it correctly? Will there be a punishment if I answer it incorrectly?"

The wooden man said, "This is not a classroom question. There is no reward for a correct answer, and no punishment for a wrong answer."

Wen Yun sneered and said, "There is no reward or punishment, so why should I answer your question? So what if I don't answer the question?"

When saying this, Wen Yun had one hand behind his back and the other hand hanging at his side.

The hand hanging by his side was in a naturally relaxed state, but the hand behind his back was clenched into a fist, with veins bulging on the back of the fist, revealing that he was not calm at the moment.

But the anxiety and tension on his face were gone, his back was straight, and he seemed to have the bearing and pride of a pine or cypress standing against the frost.

It was also at this moment that Wen Yun's pride and aura as the top sect and top celestial being in Jiuzhou were finally revealed.

Yes, it was at this moment that there were so many celestial beings, masters everywhere, and large monsters gathering in Haoxu Fairy Island that the celestial beings seemed like cabbages and were totally worthless.

But in fact, any celestial being placed in the world of Jiuzhou is just a handful of people at the top of the tower.

Which fairy doesn’t have her own legends and stories, personality and temper?

The wooden man's eyelids lifted again and his eyeballs moved.

ka ka ka-

It was like the sound of some kind of machinery running, making all the creatures present feel inexplicably panicked.

On the projection screen, on the vast ocean, Yun Liuguang retreated ten miles of sea at this moment, the black air receded, and his punishment was completed!
I saw Yun Liuguang standing on a white disc, his body swaying slightly.

His face turned pale and he was speechless for a moment.

No one knew what he went through during the punishment. He just stood there, looking like the paper ghost who was about to break into pieces.

But what makes Yun Liuguang better than the paper ghost is that his expression is very calm. Although his eyes are cold, they are as tough as a famous sword.

In the classroom, on the podium, the wooden man raised the ruler in his hand again.

He raised his hand and tapped it, and a huge dice appeared in the air again.

The wooden man said, "Tianjiao Yun Liuguang, you made a mistake in playing chess, one step forward and one step back, the two cancel each other out. You can stay where you are and not be punished."

"Black and white chess pieces, two sides compare, black chess pieces lose one point, white chess pieces get zero points."

"Now draw the black chess Tianjiao, and then make the move."

"Boom-"

In the sky, the huge dice began to spin.

It was as if an invisible hand was pushing the dice to roll.

After a few breaths, the dice stopped rolling.

thump—

It was like the sound of a deafening bell, ringing in the hearts of all living beings present.

Finally, a bright red three dots appeared on the top of the dice.

It’s three o’clock!
The wooden man said, "Tianjiao Mengmo, you have been chosen. Now you will play chess and answer the questions."

The one drawn is the nightmare tapir from the demon tribe!

It was the same old routine. Although I didn’t know why Meng Mo was chosen, Meng Mo had three chances to answer the questions this time.

Oh, no, it should be said that Nightmare Tapir's followers have three chances to answer questions.

The Nightmare Tapir's follower is the ancient demon saint Ghost Chariot.

Yes, and there is only one, the Ancient Demon Saint Ghost Car!
Guiche is as domineering as Jiuying. Although Mengmo has three follower tokens, since Guiche has chosen Mengmo, he will not allow Mengmo to have other genius "followers".

Inside the desk, the ghost car flapped its wings, and eight bird-shaped heads whistled strangely. The beautiful head in the middle said tenderly, "Oh, it's my turn."

Everyone present felt dizzy and uncomfortable due to the sound of the ghost car.

I really wish Song Tianjiao could take action again and use the Shut Up Heavenly Master Technique once more to ask the Ghost Chariot Demon Saint to shut his mouth.

Unfortunately, Song Tianjiao had no intention of taking action at this moment.

Song Ciwan was listening to the class attentively.

Yes, it’s time for Mu Ren’s lecture again.

The teaching method was similar to the previous one, so there was no need to elaborate. However, every time Mu Ren gave a lecture, there was a new content. For Song Ciwan, this was a good opportunity to acquire new knowledge.

There are nearly 100,000 Chinese characters. Not to mention the uncommon ones, just the more than 10,000 commonly used characters are so profound that they are beyond words.

Song Ciwan just felt that he didn't need to master tens of thousands of words -

As long as she could master a few thousand words, even just a thousand words, her cultivation and combat power would definitely rise to a level beyond the limit.

Therefore, for Song Ciwan, the wooden man's teaching is an excellent opportunity for improvement that he absolutely cannot miss.

She is like a dry desert, absorbing the sunshine, rain and dew that can nourish an oasis and all living things at an astonishing speed.

A quarter of an hour of teaching time passed quickly. In this new round of teaching, Song Ciwan mastered more than thirty new characters.

At this point, the total number of characters she mastered reached three hundred and twenty.

She stood quietly on the white disc, without movement or words, but silently comprehended and observed everything in this world.

It seemed as if countless sparks were colliding in her body.

It is like in the deep and vast starry night, meteorites are whirling, stars are sprouting, all things are born and die, and the world is flourishing and withering.

Boom boom boom——

One after another, wonderful substances were annihilated, and one after another, wonderful substances were born.

Round after round, death and life, life and death, it seems endless.

She heard the ghost car answering questions, and it seemed that the ghost car could not answer the first question.

Tianjiao Mengmo seemed to have proposed to answer the questions himself, just like Yun Liuguang before. Before Mu Ren could say anything, Guiche screamed, "You bastard, don't talk!"

"Young man, if you dare to harm me, I will make sure you die without a burial place!"
