From the end of the world

Chapter 243 Internal Drive Conflict

All along, my impression of Ying Lingyun's true self has been heard from various people, and everyone has the same description of him: arrogant, crazy, evil, unscrupulous, like a demon...

However, Mr. Zhu also mentioned that Ying Lingyun was not like this at the beginning. Although he was an arrogant and pretentious man, he also had a just and passionate heart, which was why he embarked on the path of opposing Yin Yue.

And it was precisely because he realized that he had lost Yin Yue forever, the woman who was the most important to his life, that he strangled his past self with lofty morals, abandoned his wife, children, and himself, denied the greatest achievement of his life, and dedicated the rest of his life to the goal of reviving Yin Yue.

He even fell into a state of insanity because of this - this is not a metaphor, but a fact. With the knowledge and memory of the "possible clone", he transformed himself into a mad scientist with super scientific research talent; and according to the information provided by the girl Lu Chan, directly absorbing the knowledge and memory of the "possible clone" is a suicidal act that will collapse one's own personality.

All these actions are based on the premise that "Yin Yue is really dead."

If Yin Yue had already made effective preparations for resurrection, then what was the purpose of Ying Lingyun doing all this?
If Ying Lingyun didn't know about all this, he could be said to be a self-indulgent clown, but that was definitely not the case. He knew what Yin Yue was going to do from the beginning, and all he had to do was to fill in the gaps in Yin Yue's imperfect resurrection plan.

This is really strange. Even if Yin Yue's resurrection cannot be said to be perfect, at least she is alive. It is a decisive transformation from death to life, from zero to one. Moreover, according to my contact, Yin Yue may not have regained all her power after resurrection, but at least she still retains the power of the Great Perfection level. Even if there are other major flaws that I don't know about, at least that is what Yin Yue chose to accept, or there is a way to spend time to solve it later.

Is it really necessary for Ying Lingyun to sacrifice himself to this extent just to fill in the gaps? The driving force that pushed him into such a crazy situation was seriously insufficient. Since he knew that Yin Yue would be resurrected, it would be difficult for him to feel the despair of completely losing his beloved, and it would be impossible for his temperament to change so drastically.

contradiction.

In my mind, the originally clear portrait of Ying Lingyun gradually became blurred.

There must be some crucial information that I don't know.

Obviously Yin Yue can resurrect on her own, but why does Ying Lingyun still go to such lengths... For now, I can only find one line of reasoning, which is that for Ying Lingyun, the "current Yin Yue" is absolutely unacceptable to him.

Why? Because the woman he loved was using his son's body, so he felt disgusted?
Also, since he knew from the beginning that Chang'an was Yin Yue's resurrection container, why did he keep Chang'an in the Zhu family?
Chang'an was possessed by Yin Yue's soul after he came out of the glass container in the dark room of the secret base of the Humanitarian Department. The function of the glass container was to remove the seal of Chang'an's monster blood. Therefore, when Yin Yue launched the attack, I thought for a moment that Chang'an's monster blood was running wild. According to my subsequent analysis, the prerequisite for Yin Yue to possess Chang'an should be the event of "Chang'an's monster blood seal being removed".

However, Ying Lingyun watched the Zhu family seal the "conditions for Yin Yue's resurrection" for so many years without asking anything, which inevitably makes people suspicious. Considering that he seems unable to accept the possibility of "the current Yin Yue", perhaps the Zhu family did something that suits his wishes. But if that's the case, why did he put Chang'an in the glass container that removed the seal of the monster bloodline not long ago?
Is it because he has now developed the "Rebirth Ritual", and although the "current Silver Moon" is unacceptable to him, it can at least become a necessary element of the "Perfect Silver Moon", so he thinks the time is ripe?

While I was thinking, Fu Feng and Dong Che were taking turns interrogating the senior researcher.

Compared with Yin Yue and Chang An, they are obviously more concerned about Xu Gou, the "missing Great Impermanence Qualifier". Although Xu Gou is undoubtedly the enemy of the Humanitarian Department, it does not mean that he will not become Luo Shan's enemy. Once the situation becomes the worst, Luo Shan's three major troubles will become four major troubles.

The senior researcher also knew that it was useless to resist, so he had to answer honestly. Although he didn't know the current whereabouts of Xu Gou, he at least told the time when Xu Gou defected. That happened only a month ago, and it was consistent with my previous reasoning to a certain extent. I'm afraid that recently, Ying Lingyun made adjustments to the "Rebirth Ceremony".

In addition, this is just my speculation. There is probably another reason that prompted him to take action against Chang'an now. That is, he deduced that the Zhu family intends to lift the seal on Chang'an's monster bloodline by themselves.

His reasoning process must be simple - because the monster maker had seen me through the eyes of the shadow-changing monster, so he must have seen Chang'an appearing at the scene when we interrogated the shadow-changing monster. And since Chang'an has come into contact with the strange world, the Zhu family will definitely not let Chang'an continue to remain powerless.

Everything corresponds.

The biggest question right now is whether Chang'an can still be saved, and whether he has been consumed by Yin Yue as resurrection material.

I asked the senior researcher without any hope. "...I think Zhu Changan's soul might still be alive." He actually had some explanation.

I immediately asked, “On what basis?”

He seemed to be organizing his thoughts: "Not long ago, you seemed to have fought with Yin Yue... But Yin Yue should have no reason to fight with you. She should have withdrawn from the battlefield immediately, but she chose to stay and fight with you... Why?"

"She seems to have a reason to kill me," I said.

"What follows is just my conjecture. Yin Yue may want to make Zhu Changan's soul despair." He said, "This is a common method used by many evil spirits. The evil spirits will manipulate the victim's body to kill his relatives and friends, causing his soul to become depressed and collapse, so that they can invade his existence. And you seem to have some friendship with Zhu Changan, so you may become a murder target."

Since Yin Yue needs to do this, it is enough to prove that Chang'an's soul still exists, and I can't help but feel relieved. But on the other hand, Fu Feng and Dong Che are also listening beside them, and let them realize that my close relationship with Chang'an is not a good thing. You know, I am now completely cut off from the Zhu family.

"Regardless of whether I am really that important in his heart..." I said, "With Silver Moon's power, if she wants to control a mere college boy with monster blood, does she really need to imitate an ordinary evil spirit and do such a thing to invade its existence?"

"That's not necessary." The senior researcher admitted, "So this is just my conjecture. Maybe Yin Yue just wanted to manipulate his own son's body to kill his acquaintances. We humans cannot understand such a demonic idea."

"You know so much... So much information was delivered to me at the right time..." Fu Feng said thoughtfully, "Since you know so much, please answer another question. Did that dog use your monster transformation technology? Or let me ask more accurately, did he also have your heart seeds implanted in his body?"

"No." The senior researcher shook his head. "The only thing implanted in him was that unknown substance that looked like black jade."

I thought Fu Feng would ask about the information related to the fragments of the divine seal, but he asked something else: "So do you know the source of the seed of the heart - who is the original body of the monster?"

"I don't know." The senior researcher shook his head again.

I remembered what was mentioned in Doctor Silver Mask's diary.

Doctor Silver Mask once speculated that the provider of the Heart Seed and the original body of the monster was probably the Great Impermanence outside of Luoshan. According to the information Zhu Shi once gave me, there are only two Great Impermanence outside of Luoshan, Xuan Ming who defected from Luoshan, and a person called Taoyuan Township Lord.

The appearance of the monster can be traced back to eighteen months ago at the latest, and Xuanming defected to Luoshan half a year ago, so Xuanming can be ruled out as a suspect. The original body of the monster is most likely the Taoyuan Township Lord.

It's okay to tell Fufeng about this news, but it may not be appropriate to let Dongche hear it when Fufeng is present. Fufeng may be the traitor Luoshan who has an affair with the Humane Department. He may kill Dongche for some reasons. Although he has the motive to kill Dongche now, there is no need for me to make things worse.

I thought to myself that I should go back and investigate the information about the Taoyuan village chief.

Fu Feng continued to interrogate the senior researcher carefully, but still got nothing. The interrogation was almost coming to an end. Perhaps because we were present, Fu Feng did not seem to intend to drag this work out for a long time. Although I also had many questions related to Ying Lingyun, Yin Yue, and Chang An, I could not continue to dig out more answers from the senior researcher. Of course, you can't ask for information that the person involved doesn't know.

It seems that this is all I can ask. I changed my body back to my appearance of being nearly 20 years old, and Fufeng called the interrogator back in and asked him to take the senior researcher back to the prison area. We left the interrogation room and returned the same way under Fufeng's guidance.

Dong Che slowed down his pace slightly, as if consciously moving away from Fu Feng, while looking at Ma Zao frequently.
