"Destiny is as intertwined and ever-changing as the lines of a spider web. I will be as steadfast as a rock and never forget my original intention."

John was chewing on his understanding of Xia Hua's words, "Destiny is like a weave, you should be like a rock."

For a moment, I felt something in my heart. I just felt that my whole life was like prey on a spider web, unable to escape or escape.

In the end, the weighing weight became decadent until death.

Is this ending really his fate?

Or do you want to resist fate? No matter what the outcome is, you can control the future by yourself.

Miscellaneous thoughts emerged in his mind, and John knew that he had stood at a fork in the road.

It is very possible to think about heaven and hell.

While he was wavering, he remembered the assassin's art passed down from generation to generation by the Brotherhood.

"Kill one person and save a thousand. Is this the way of an assassin?"

The King of Killers asked confusedly, always feeling that the young man in front of him would give him the answer.

As expected, Xia Hua couldn't help laughing when he heard this.

"Haha, saving this kind of behavior is not something that can be measured with numbers."

"Assassins are not heroes. They bow to the darkness, but serve the light in the shadows. The way of the assassin is to respect one's own creed."

Hearing this, the pupils in John's eyes shrank, as if he had some understanding.

Xia Hua continued to speak.

"The Assassin Brotherhood put themselves in the position of savior, which has deviated from the path of the Assassins."

He paused, worked up his emotions, and prepared to show off in front of John Wick.

Become a life mentor to the feared killer king in the underground world.

"Here I would like to quote what a master of philosophy often said: When others are blindly pursuing the truth, remember that everything is false. When others are bound by morality and law, remember that everything is permitted."

"Everything is false, everything is permitted."

The historical prototype of this sentence is the creed within the Assassin Order.

The Assassin sect is a secret sect of Christianity. The word "Assassin" in modern English and French evolved from "Assasin".

All in all, it’s full of style.

But John Wick is not a child and cannot be fooled so easily.

He thought for a moment and asked: "If everything is false, then what should we believe? If everything is allowed, then why don't we follow our desires?"

Xia Hua glanced at him with surprise.

Sure enough, although the paths of killers and assassins are different, the King of Killers still thinks beyond his own pattern and begins to explore the value and meaning of life.

However, no matter how tricky John Wick's question is, he is not a real philosopher after all, and there is no need to fool him with idealistic answers.

So Xia Hua spoke like this.

"Human society is constantly changing, and assassins should not stubbornly follow certain traditions. But it does not give assassins unlimited freedom to do whatever they want, but tells them that there is always another way."

"This is what I think, everything is false and everything is allowed."

"Of course, there is a more simple and crude understanding, which is: it doesn't matter what you want, just do whatever you want!"

"As long as you stick to the bottom line and have a clear conscience. No matter killing or saving people, no matter order or freedom. As long as you stick to your creed and your belief as a human to protect the race, it doesn't matter whether you are an assassin or a hero."

Xia Hua's words went around and around, and he almost got himself involved.

But these words have a different meaning to the ears of a caring person.

John's eyes became brighter and brighter, as if there was a flash of light.

He pondered, and the expression on his face gradually relaxed.

As relieved.

Then he looked at Xia Hua gratefully.

"Although I haven't understood what my creed is yet, I no longer want to live in such a hazy state. Thank you for reminding me."

After saying that, he sat on the bed and bowed slightly to Xia Hua.

If he hadn't been unable to stand up, John Wick would have thanked him more formally.

But for the King of Killers, this is already his most sincere gratitude.

Xia Hua did not avoid it, he accepted John's thanks calmly.

People will get close to each other only when they have contact with each other. If you are too polite, you will become alienated.

"By the way, why did the bullet turn?"

After digesting some of the chicken soup that filled his mind, John finally remembered what he wanted to know most from the beginning.

"It's unscientific to think about it."

He complained about the Brotherhood's unscientific marksmanship from a normal person's perspective.

Xia Huaxin said: Of course it is impossible to understand with normal people's thinking.

He smiled slightly and teased deliberately.

"Of course I relied on my strong wrist strength to throw the bullet out!"

As he spoke, he couldn't help but laugh like a pig.

John rolled his eyes at first when he heard this ridiculous explanation.

Seeing Xia Hua laughing again, she knew he was joking, so she sighed helplessly.

"This is important to me, Erwin."

John Wick, like Mr. and Mrs. Smith, only knows Xia Hua's name.

Now that his name was called, Xia Hua couldn't make any more jokes.

"Normal people wouldn't think of using arc-shaped marksmanship."

Xia Hua's first sentence gave John some mental preparation.

But he didn't expect John to ask immediately.

"Is it okay to be an abnormal person?"

Xia Hua called him a good guy in his heart.

As expected of a man who has reached the top among ordinary people and is known as the King of Killers.

This ability to accept is also different from ordinary people.

"Even in the Brotherhood, only one in ten assassins can shoot arc bullets freely. Looking at the whole world, they are like wind-haired water chestnuts."

When John heard this, he said in his heart: So that’s it.

He thought the brotherhood was full of freaks who mastered this kind of arc-shaped marksmanship!

From this point of view, even if he doesn't know how to use arc marksmanship, his skills are still at the upper reaches of the Assassin Brotherhood.

Seemingly seeing through John's thoughts, Xia Hua poured cold water on him again.

"The guns of the Brotherhood are all handmade by a family of gunsmiths who have served the organization for thousands of years. The craftsmanship is a secret that is not passed down. Even the bullets are specially made. Otherwise, do you think normal firearms can produce arc-shaped trajectories?"

Then continue throwing bombs.

"But even if you master the arc-shaped marksmanship, you are not considered a core member of the organization."

Upon hearing these words, John Wick's eyes instantly became as sharp as an eagle.

"The core members of the organization need to have other specialties besides arc-shaped marksmanship, and the ace assassin among them has a special physique, which is almost like a superpower."

Xia Hua did not show off and directly explained this special physique.

"When people with this kind of special physique are highly concentrated, their bodies will secrete a large amount of adrenaline, which can instantly increase their heart rate to more than [-] per minute. This allows the body to gain stronger mobility, nerve response capabilities, The computing power of the brain, and the extraordinary dynamic vision.”

"In fact, fundamentally speaking, the Brotherhood's arc-shaped marksmanship is specially designed for this kind of people."

Xia Hua then continued to say nothing shocking, continuing to undermine John's confidence.

"The Brotherhood's ace assassin claims that as long as he has enough ammunition, one person is worth a small army without heavy weapons!"
