My name is Chen Gou, and I am the villain's lackey No. 1.
His name is Li Ying, and he is the villain's lackey No. 2.
We both worship the villain as our master, and we are a notorious gangster combination.
I grew up without a father or a mother. Both Li Ying and Master were kind to me. I would kill whoever they asked me to kill.
The people Li Ying asked me to kill were all bad people.
The people Master asked me to kill were all good people.
Li Ying advised me to do good, but Master taught me to do evil.
I thought we were the closest people in the world, but I was the only one who thought that. They both had murderous intentions for each other.
Li Ying: Xiaogou, if you were born in the Xianmen Taoist family and were not under the control of the master, everyone would respect you, instead of like now, where everyone shouts and beats you.
Master: Chen Gou, if you follow me wholeheartedly and are not deceived by Li Ying, you will surely make everyone in the world frightened.
Li Ying: Xiaogou, kill the master.
Master: Chen Gou, kill Li Ying.
One is whom I love and the other is whom I respect. I don't want to kill either of them, so I choose to escape.
And when I came back, everyone was spreading the news: Master killed Li Ying, and Li Ying died without a burial place.
I lost my love and my heart became cold.
I will not kill the Master, but I will watch helplessly as he is besieged by hundreds of Immortal Sects, and watch as he is poisoned with bone powder and his flesh and blood disappear little by little.
When the corrosion reached my chest, I heard something fall to the ground with a clang.
The master no longer had a hand, and he twisted his remaining arm as if he wanted to hide the thing.
But I was one step ahead of him, my fingertips tremblingly reached into a puddle of flesh and blood, and I pulled out a piece of jade Buddha.
——That was my love token for Li Ying.
Master wears a mask all year round. I initially thought he was ugly and invisible. Finally, before he died, I took off his mask and saw Li Ying's face.
Intention: evil is not evil
