I'm the villain in the book

It can steal the beasts and earn points without hurting Chu An's life.

But the problem is that so far, it seems that only the moon-raising sword in this world can hurt the luck beast.

Then, if Wei Changtian wants to obtain a "best of both worlds" result through this method, he has to use the moon-raising sword again.

And this will undoubtedly bring him a lot of trouble.

Of course, if there is no other way to choose, Wei Changtian probably wouldn't care about this "loss".

After all, compared to 1500 system points and a lucky beast, the high probability of harm caused by casting the moon-raising sword again is not worth mentioning.

But right now he has other options.

In fact, it was exactly his initial plan——

That's straight up killing...

Going round and round, after several hesitation and entanglement, Wei Changtian still made this decision cruelly.

And I don't know if it was because of guilt in his heart, he didn't kill Chu An directly, but let Zhang San perform a "rescue" scene, so that the former could go back and meet Qin He for the last time.

To be honest, it might be better for Qin He or Chu An not to see each other.

After all, this kind of torture from great joy to great sorrow, from hope to despair is undoubtedly extremely cruel.

But Wei Changtian still did it.

He himself didn't quite understand why he did this, he could only say that he might feel more at ease in this way.

There is a professional term for this kind of psychology in the previous life, which is called "compensation effect".

In a ball game, when the referee makes a wrong judgment, his subsequent calls will tend to be biased towards the side that was damaged by the wrong judgment.

In an unfinished relationship, when one partner commits an act of infidelity, his or her attitude towards the other partner suddenly becomes tender and considerate.

These are all examples of "compensation effects", and they are not too different from Wei Changtian's current psychology.

And this also means that no matter what decision Wei Changtian has made now, in fact, in his subconscious mind, he still thinks that what he did was wrong.

You know it's wrong, but you still do it.

When interests and right and wrong conflict, everyone's choices may be different.

And this may be where the complexity of human nature lies...

......

......

Youshi, Zhuwu Inn.

From dawn to dusk, Qin He had been sitting in the front hall for a whole day.

She hadn't eaten all day, only drank a few sips of water.

Seeing her like this, the clerk in the shop tried to persuade her many times.

But Qin He just shook his head every time and said the same sentence softly.

"I'm not hungry."

"..."

In this way, the guys gave up after repeated persuasion failed, but they would take away the food in front of her every once in a while, bring it back to the back kitchen after heating it.

In one day, these few dishes of green vegetables and a bowl of white porridge have been heated back and forth countless times.

But Qin He never glanced at them, staring at the open courtyard door in the distance all the time.

She looked at the pedestrians on the street outside the courtyard, the peddlers carrying loads, the children running around, and the peasant women carrying bamboo baskets, and tears rolled in her eyes again.

Then, a familiar carriage slowly stopped at the courtyard gate.

Standing up abruptly, Qin He recognized that it was Wei Changtian's carriage.

She subconsciously wanted to run over, but stopped after a moment of hesitation.

Qin He was afraid that Wei Changtian would become impatient if he asked too many questions, so he suppressed the worry in his heart and stood there helplessly.

But the next moment, when she saw the man getting off the car...

"Chu, Chu An..."

His eyes widened in shortness of breath, and tears welled up in his eyes instantly.

Qin He murmured in disbelief, and immediately ran to the gate of the courtyard recklessly.

"Pfft!"

Not noticing the threshold under her feet, she fell on the bluestone road in embarrassment, with blood oozing from her palms.

But Qin He didn't care about these, just staggered up, and continued to run towards the man with disheveled hair.

At this moment, the man was also running towards her.

"Chu An!!"

"Qin Er!!"

Amidst the two calls full of joy and excitement, the two figures finally hugged each other tightly on the path in the bamboo forest, and the afterglow of the setting sun was golden and gentle.

Although less than a day has passed since the "farewell" last night, this day seems to be as long as ten years, which makes both of them want to talk to each other so much.

However, Qin He and Chu An didn't say much. After trembling and embracing for a moment, they turned around together and knelt down in front of Wei Changtian who had already walked nearby.

"Thank you sir!"

"Wuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

"We will never forget your life-saving grace!"

"woo woo woo woo......."

Qin He with tears all over his face, and Chu An with an extremely sincere expression.

The two of them just knelt in front of Wei Changtian and kowtowed heavily, even though their foreheads were already flushed red.

It can be seen that their gratitude to Wei Changtian really cannot be truer.

And as for Wei Changtian...

"Young Master Chu, Miss Qin, please get up quickly."

"I just did it conveniently, you don't have to..."

With a calm expression, he said some polite words in his mouth.

There was nothing wrong with Wei Changtian's reaction, but he turned his body slightly inadvertently, as if deliberately avoiding the direction of the two kneeling down.

Chapter 805

An hour later.

When the setting sun has completely disappeared into the horizon and the new moon slowly rises from the eastern sky, calm has returned to the bamboo dock.

In just an hour, Chu An and Qin He had already said many words of thanks to Wei Changtian.

The two of them didn't know how to repay a big man like Wei Changtian, so they searched out all the belongings including Zhuwu's house deed, land deed, etc., and wanted Wei Changtian to accept it.

But how could Wei Changtian accept these things, so the two sides inevitably pushed each other again, until Wei Changtian deliberately put on an impatient look before giving up.

But although they failed to send out the gift of thanks, Chu An and Qin He would definitely think of repaying Wei Changtian in other ways.

And the latter didn't say anything more, just claiming that he had something to do, and finally "driven" the two of them out of the small courtyard with great difficulty...

"Sir, why are you bothering?"

Walking to the side of Wei Changtian who was standing by the window, Yang Liushi raised her eyes to see the two leaving backs in the distance, and said with a wry smile:

"Since it's all decided, why let him back?"

"I do not know either."

Shaking his head, Wei Changtian sighed helplessly: "Oh, maybe it's better to be more straightforward."

"..."

Looking at Wei Changtian with a complex expression, Yang Liushi gently took his hand, paused for a moment and then asked softly:

"When are you going to do it?"

"Before you leave Yongding."

Wei Changtian replied truthfully: "Let them get along for a few more days."

"Well, I know..."

"..."

After a few simple exchanges, Wei Changtian and Yang Liushi stopped talking, and just stood silently by the window watching the bamboo forest swaying in the moonlight.

At the same time, Chu An and Qin He, who had already returned to the room, were discussing how to repay Wei Changtian for saving his life.

The inn and real estate failed to be given away, and the two were actually not surprised by this.

After all, how could Wei Changtian be short of money for someone who treated Gongsun Yan with such respect.

Let alone a mere inn, Wei Changtian might not even look down on Gongsunyan's tens of millions of property.

Everything I have, my benefactor is not lacking.

If you were an ordinary person, you might no longer think about repaying your favor at this time.

But Chu An and Qin He did not give up "as it should be", but were still thinking about how to repay Wei Changtian.

Even if it's just a tiny bit.

"Young Master Wei, with his status, ordinary people will definitely look down on him."

Sitting at the table, Qin He said earnestly: "Starting tomorrow, I will go to Hong'an Temple to pray for the young master every day. It would be good if I can accumulate some merit for him."

"What do you say?"

"Um......"

Nodding his head, Chu An frowned, seemingly absent-minded.

"what happened?"

Seeing this, Qin He couldn't help but wondered: "What are you thinking?"

"fine."

Chu An came back to his senses and said with a smile: "I may have something that Mr. Wei should like."

"what is this?"

Qin He jokingly said, "Why didn't I know you still had this kind of treasure in your possession?"

"It's not baby, it's..."

Chu An stretched out his hand to straighten the hair beside Qin He's ear, but did not answer directly: "Anyway, you don't need to worry about this matter, I will find a chance to talk to you, Young Master."

"Hmph, then you offer your treasure. Anyway, I want to go to the temple every day to pray for the young master."

With a soft snort, Qin He lightly rested his head on Chu An's chest, and sighed truthfully:

"Thanks to Mr. Wei this time, otherwise you and I would never see each other again."

"Yeah, I thought I was going to die too."

Chu An responded with a smile: "I didn't expect you to find out where I was locked up in just one day."

"No wonder even your prince is so afraid of Mr. Wei..."

Qin He agreed, then suddenly raised his head and asked, "By the way, what happened after I passed out last night?"

"Actually nothing."

Smiling, Chu An obviously didn't intend to tell Qin He what happened last night, but he couldn't help recalling pictures in his mind.

Masked man, candle dragon, blood, mysterious man...

Suddenly, Chu An's eyes froze for a moment, and the hand holding Qin He trembled slightly.
