Chapter 1015: A plan that seems stupid but is not smart at all
Chapter 1015: A plan that seems stupid but is not smart at all
Yae Shinko fell silent. Alice's words were like a stone thrown into the calm lake of her heart, causing ripples.
She had indeed thought about killing Shao Yun, more than once. Whenever it was late at night and everyone was asleep, she would think of Baalzebub's death and the humiliation of having her tail cut off, and hatred would surge into her heart like a tide.
However, she couldn't beat Shao Yun. This cruel reality was like a shackle, tightly locking up all her hatred and unwillingness.
She could only deceive herself and let it be. The current situation was good enough.
At least there is no chaos in Inazuma, and the people can live in peace. That's enough.
The government affairs were handed over to the people on Haizhi Island as compensation for the losses they suffered in the war.
At least the shrine administrators were still the original shogunate staff, and she could still guard the Narujin Taisha Shrine and maintain this small peace. That was enough...
Alice looked at the silent Yaejinko and said earnestly, "Think about Baalzebul. Are you really willing to let her die like this? Don't you want to avenge her?"
The name "Baalzebul" once again awakened the softest and most vulnerable part of the Eightfold Son of God's heart.
Yes, can the matter of General Lei Dian being killed by Shao Yun really be put aside so easily?
The pain of tossing and turning in the middle of the night, the hatred suppressed in the heart, now surged up in Alice's words.
"Then... how sure are you?" Yae Shinko asked hesitantly, her fingertips tightly grasping the corner of the shrine maiden's costume.
When Alice heard Yaejinko ask how confident she was, the determination on her face faded a bit. She shook her head helplessly and said frankly:
"To be honest, I'm not sure."
When Yae Shinko heard this, she rolled her eyes at Alice and wanted to turn around and go back to the shrine to rest.
She thought to herself, Alice, did you let out a big, smelly, loud fart at me?
You're not even sure you can kill Shao Yun, yet you dare to incite me? What? When Shao Yun comes to kill me, do you also want to give me a piece of your tail and make a fox fur hat for your daughter Keli?
Do you think I'm a fur supplier?
"Not sure? Then why are you asking me to play with you?"
Seeing that Yae Shenzi was very emotional, Alice quickly waved her hand, signaling her to calm down and wait for her to finish speaking.
"Don't get angry just yet! I'm not sure, but I'm not without a 'solution'!"
Then, Alice held up two fingers and began to systematically describe her plan, which was a two-pronged strategy.
"First, we must unite and deal with Shao Yun just like we did against the Kanriya scourge!"
"Although the Ruling of Death did not support me, I have the support of the Ruling of Life and the Ruling of Time."
When mentioning these two rulers, Alice's tone was filled with a hint of pride. With their support, this plan undoubtedly added a lot of confidence.
Yae Shinko's anger subsided a little. If the two major rulers supported it, then... let's see what insights she would come up with next.
"Secondly, we need to incite Ying to rebel and cause the fortress to collapse from within."
"As for how to persuade Ying to rebel, the only thing I can think of now is either to make Shao Yun change his mind, or to make Ying change her mind."
After hearing Alice's plan, Yae Shinko's eyes changed significantly.
She obviously agreed very much with the first plan of uniting all forces, and dealt with Shao Yun as if it were the same as dealing with the disaster of Kanriya.
But when I heard the second plan to persuade Ying to defect, I felt that it was too far-fetched.
"The content of your second plan is even more outrageous than some of my Yaedou's outrageous light novel plots."
At this point, she recalled what happened more than two years ago and said self-deprecatingly:
"If Shao Yun could change his mind and fall in love with someone else, my god Baalzebul would not have died."
"Wouldn't it have been better if we had just let him sleep with Kamisato Ayaka? He would have devoted all his energy to helping us get that nerdy girl Ying out of the Pure Land of One Heart."
"Baalzebul chopped his wife, and I let him go myself to vent his anger."
Having said this, Yae Shinko's voice dropped and he looked deflated.
"But the end result was that Shao Yun strangled Ling Hua half to death. He even killed my god!"
Finally, she raised her head, looked directly at Alice, and said in a cold voice: "So, what makes you think you can use your beauty to sow discord between Shao Yun and Ying?"
After hearing Yae Shinko's question, Alice briefly pondered it in her mind and said in a cold tone:
"I don't believe there is a man in this world who is so loyal to love. Even a hero cannot resist the temptation of a beautiful woman."
"As long as a beautiful woman behaves seductively and vulgarly enough, it will arouse men's animal desires!"
"If the man doesn't take the bait, it means the woman isn't being slutty enough!"
There was an unpleasant paranoia in her words.
When Yae Shinko heard this, he felt disgusted and got goosebumps all over his body.
"I remember you also have a husband who's an adventurer. Could it be that he's also..."
When Alice heard Yae Shinko bring up the topic of her husband, she immediately became like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and her voice suddenly rose.
"My husband is different from that crazy Shao Yun!"
After hearing Alice's "double standard" remarks, Yae Shinko felt extremely speechless and sneered.
However, after thinking about it, she felt that it was only natural for someone to protect her husband, so Yae Shinko didn't say anything more.
"I have another question now. Do you think destroying other people's families is a good thing?" Yae Shinko changed the subject and asked this moral question.
She knew in her heart that if this matter really came to light, Alice's reputation in Teyvat would be completely ruined.
(The last person who destroyed someone else's family in this way was Wang Po in "Water Margin", and she was tortured to death by slicing!)
Alice didn't care about morality at this moment. In her opinion, as long as she could defeat Shao Yun and save Teyvat, nothing else mattered.
"I'm doing this for Teyvat. Morality is out of the question in this situation."
Then, Alice started playing with the "moral" standard again, saying, "Besides, if it's Shao Yun himself who can't control his belt, then it's not my fault."
"No fly would bite an egg without cracks. He fell on his own. What does it have to do with me?" She acted as if it was a matter of course, as if everything she did was reasonable.
After listening to Alice's twisted logic, Yaesugi couldn't help but roll her eyes, and the disgust in her eyes almost overflowed.
Is this a paradox? Someone killed Thor for his wife, went through so much hardship, and then suddenly changed his personality?
Besides, Yae Shen Zi knew very well how terrifying Shao Yun was. When that guy was trying to reason with you, he was just too lazy to use force and found it troublesome.
But once they really become unreasonable and start using their fists and feet, even if you, Alice, have nine lives, they won’t be enough to kill you!
"Do you really think that just because Shao Yun is your father, you'd dare to ride on his neck and shit on him?"
She really couldn't understand Alice's almost crazy idea. Don't you know how terrifying Shao Yun's bloody hands must look?
Alice, have you become stupid from taking care of the child?
Alice is certainly aware of the risks involved, but risks are often accompanied by huge rewards.
She gritted her teeth and insisted, "But if it really succeeds, he probably won't have time to bother me. Ying will probably just kill him."
In her opinion, this strategy is to use Ying to get rid of Shao Yun. Out of guilt towards Ying, he will definitely submit to being killed!
After hearing this, Yaejinko broke out in a cold sweat and said with some shame, "You'd better pray that he doesn't really lose control of his belt. Otherwise, he will really become a disaster for Teyvat."
If Shao Yun truly "degenerates," completely abandoning the only remaining restraints, becoming a being with absolute force and no principles...
Just thinking about it made Yae Shinko shudder. She couldn't even imagine what a doomsday scene Teyvat would be like at that time.
Murder, arson, rape and looting, he has to deal with the criminal laws of various countries as a daily task.
Alice saw that every time she said something, Yaezumi would retort to her, and she became very angry.
"I've gone off topic. Now, let me ask you one thing: do you agree to help me kill Shao Yun?" Her eyes were as sharp as arrows, staring at Yae Shen Zi, waiting for her answer.
Yae Shinko looked at Alice's eyes that were as sharp as arrows, and pondered in his heart.
Agree? It would mean facing the terrifying Shao Yun again, putting himself on the brink of life and death again. The past humiliation and fear surged into his heart like a tide.
Refuse to agree? The deep-seated hatred and desire for revenge against the gods burned within her like a flame.
In the end, in order to avenge Baalzebul, a hint of determination flashed in her eyes, and she chose to agree to Alice's plan.
But, this is conditional!
"I can accompany you to kill Shao Yun. But I need you to have a thorough plan, otherwise I will never seek death!"
She didn't want to lose her life in vain because of a plan full of loopholes.
"Also, how do you plan to destroy Shao Yun's family? Do you want to do it yourself, or do you have any other methods?"
Alice actually didn't have any good ideas on how to sow discord between Shao Yun's family. What she said just now was just a pretense.
But she couldn't show her fear in front of Yae Shenzi, so she could only pretend to have everything under control and said calmly:
"I'm still thinking about it, but I'm sure I'll come up with a good idea."
Looking at Alice's state, Yaejinko felt that the hope of revenge was slim, but she still reminded her of the consequences of failure:
"Then let me give you one last warning. Don't mess this up. Shao Yun has a vengeful personality. If your plan fails, you'll die miserably."
She had personally experienced Shao Yun's ruthlessness, and she knew this better than anyone else.
Alice is of course aware of the seriousness of this problem, so she must gather more forces as soon as possible and secretly look for opportunities to sow discord between Shao Yun and Ying!
She took a deep breath and said with a firm look in her eyes: "I know all this, but believe me, I will succeed!"
Alice followed Su Qin's example and persuaded the six kingdoms to unite and resist Qin, uniting all forces to fight against Shao Yun.
But what Alice didn't realize was that her anxiety about gains and losses, her concern for the past and her worry about the future had caused her to overlook a key issue.
What became of Barbara, who was sacrificed by her...
Tonight, this pure believer will make her own choice...
