Sharp Knife
Chapter 7129 (Seven Thousand One Hundred and Twenty-Nine) Sharp Knife
“Following the master will inevitably bring trouble. Generally speaking, there will be differences, but it’s just a matter of ‘more’ versus ‘even more’,” said the Gray-Handed Man. “Oh, I remember now, there are also differences in degree, but it’s just a matter of ‘trouble’ versus ‘more trouble’.”
“That’s true,” said the brown-handed man. “I was just used to it back then.”
“I’m used to it, but being used to it doesn’t mean I want to be like that, nor does it mean I still want to be like that now,” the gray-handed man said.
The brown-handed man said, "Of course I know, so during this time, you and I have indeed done some things that are different from our previous habits."
"It's a pity that some of my other habits haven't changed," the Gray-Handed Man sighed. However, after sighing, the Gray-Handed Man realized that he didn't need to be like that at all.
"Speaking of regrets again?" the brown-handed man asked.
Grayhand said, "Yes, but it doesn't seem like there's anything truly regrettable. After all, given the conditions before, I couldn't really think too much about whether I was willing or not."
The brown-handed man asked, "Do you mean it's related to that kind of inexplicable reason, or not?"
"When I said that, I was thinking about reasons that are hard to explain," said Grayhand.
"What you're thinking is that you were controlled by methods you still don't really understand back then, so you didn't think much about whether you wanted to or not?" the Brown-Handed Man asked.
“Yes, that’s exactly what I was thinking when I said it,” Grayhand said. “How did you suddenly bring this up?”
The brown-handed man replied, "If not this, what else can I say?"
“You just tell me that back then I didn’t think much about whether I was willing or not,” Grayhand said.
“I won’t say that after you said that,” said the Brown-Handed Man.
"Which sentence?" Grayhand asked.
The brown-handed man replied, "What you said, 'I can't really think too much about whether I want to or not'?"
The gray-handed man asked, "Why?" "Because you said 'cannot' or 'cannot' think about whether you want to, not anything else," the brown-handed man said. "Since you've already said 'cannot,' if I say 'not' to think about it, isn't that turning someone else's 'helplessness' into a sharp knife to cut them? It will not only cut others, but also cut myself, after all, my situation was the same as yours at the time."
The gray-handed man said, "I understand your idea."
“Aren’t you going to ask further?” the brown-handed man asked.
"What do you mean?" the gray-handed man asked.
The brown-handed man smiled and deliberately said, "Ask me whether I'm not saying that because I'm worried the knife will cut you or because I'm worried the knife will cut me."
"Why did you ask this question?" Grayhand asked.
“As I kept asking you questions and we kept talking, you eventually heard my thoughts,” the brown-handed man said.
"Oh, you want me to know your thoughts on this?" Grayhand asked.
“Yes,” said the brown-handed man. “When you were talking about those things just now, you didn’t include me. You were talking about yourself.”
The gray-handed man chuckled, "Indeed. You're not blaming me for not including you when I told you, are you?"
“Of course not,” the brown-handed man said. “Whether you take me or not is up to you.”
"Just tell me what you're thinking," said the gray-handed man.
“When I said that, I was genuinely worried the knife would cut you. At first, I didn't even think about myself,” the brown-handed man said. “Do you know how I came to think of myself later?”
