Separated by a thin layer of hair, Guixiangu sat upright and "looked" directly into Lord Xueyue's eyes. There was no trace of impurities in those red eyes, and the only aura of Mikazuki quietly sank in them.
"In that case, why do you bother to do such drudgery as the Six Paths of Impermanence?"
"Are you interrogating me? Do you think I am happy? I have to deal with humans all day long... However, it is better than others. Most of the time I just deal with monsters and am responsible for the so-called 'mediation' matters with humans. I
If I don't do these hard work that no one does in the world, I will go back to hell. I'm tired of that dark place where the only people I can see are ugly people.
In the world, in addition to those evil people, there are many stupid people - of course those evil people are also stupid, but not all stupid people are evil. After all, it takes courage to do evil. Even so, fortunately, these living people
Guys can bring a lot of fun, which is probably their only value. In addition, monsters and livestock, as well as the human scenery, are more worth stopping in than the depths of hell."
It is rare for Ghost Fairy Girl to show a sincere smile. At least in front of this big monster, she is a rare person with whom she can communicate normally. She happens to have many questions born out of curiosity, and she needs to take this opportunity to talk to Xueyue one by one.
Jun said.
"Since you have been doing impermanence for nearly a thousand years, and you have experienced all kinds of joys and sorrows in the world, is it possible that you have never been touched at all?"
Lord Xueyue took out the white cigarette stick from his arms: "I'm sorry, you may have misunderstood something. Of course I have interest, but it is unnecessary to talk about touching. Everything in the world has sorrow and joy, not just for human beings.
Privilege. When exploiting other races, have humans ever considered their joys and sorrows? In my opinion, except for being able to speak, humans are no different from those they despise.
They are different, but they think they are superior to each other. Human friendship is too fragile, just like birds that have known each other on the same tree since birth, they will fly apart when disaster strikes. The so-called brotherhood connected by blood, in the face of rich interests
, falling out is faster than flipping through a book, let alone friends who are not related to each other. Especially when it comes to deception and provocation, people who are close and trusted start."
Guixiangu put her arms on the edge of the table and leaned her head forward slightly.
"What you said is indeed reasonable. Indeed, although there are people who do harm to brothers and sisters, regardless of whether they are related by blood or not. For example, among the ten evils in this world, there are people who have a deep love for their brothers and sisters, and even do not hesitate to become members of other races.
, disobedience
Natural principles. From what I have seen, they are indeed a minority. However, the feelings of parents should be sincere. Of course, I expect you to say that there are not a few biological parents who abandon their own flesh and blood. Those people are indeed unworthy.
.”
"You don't even deserve to be born as a human - even animals know how to protect their calves. But you seem to know a lot about evil angels. You are right, but since you have become a demon, how should you judge human ideas? This is mutually exclusive
Contradiction. As for those shameless parents, we can barely treat them like these animals.
It’s true that beasts have to suffer. I know that there are many poor children who are sold as meat tickets to rich people, or become bait for monsters. Even if they escape by chance, what good ending will they end up with? They grow up in such an environment.
Da, how distorted the state of mind must be compared to others of the same kind."
"It's true that such things often happen when you live for a long time. It's just because you live long enough that you don't know about evil messengers, so it's rare, right?" Guixiangu nodded again, "But the class of human beings is not what I think.
Something you like.”
"The main thing is the method - human classes are not as straightforward as monsters. They are not divided by absolute power, but are mixed with many cunning elements. However, even if it is not a time of war and famine, people cannibalize people in endlessly all the time.
The rich eat the poor, and the poor eat women. In times of difficulty, women and children are not considered human beings. They are just food reserves and tradable goods. This can naturally be regarded as for the continuation of the race... To be fair, tigers and leopards will do the same.
encountering an existential crisis
When the opportunity arises, they will feed on their own offspring; in the face of a powerful enemy, antelopes will abandon their newborn cubs to save their lives; of course, there are also many cats and dogs who cannot believe the fact that their cubs have died, dragging them along when they are still alive.
, until it rots. Among the ten evils, a good child I know was raised by a monster that humans despise most. He is so sensible, but his adoptive mother was beaten to death by humans. It is really pitiful. Fortunately, I gave him
His courage and strength for revenge.”
"Well... there is essentially no difference between humans and animals, I think so too."
"Who says it isn't? Even if the love of parents is really as heavy as a mountain, it has been written into storybooks, made into operas, and sung and sung... The lines are filled with self-movement, and I am tired of hearing it. In the final analysis, but
It's just the desire for reproduction deep in the soul. It's still the goal of racial continuation, which gives people the so-called affection of love. Whether humans or animals, all
It begins to degenerate after childbearing, and is no longer as good as the body of those of the same age who have not given birth. After all, the mission of reproduction has been completed, and it is no longer valuable to nature. This is the law of the human world, but people think it is too straightforward, and always give greatness
The meaning makes it less monotonous and tames the two parties in the relationship, making them willing to think that raising a family and having a baby is a feat."
"Speaking of which, you should have heard the story of the lamb kneeling to breast. People not only justify their actions, but also find some basis from animals to educate themselves. I think a grown-up lamb can only kneel down.
Besides drinking breast milk, is there any better way?"
"Indeed, this is what bothers me the most. Among the ten evil things, there are people who betray and frame their own relatives for fun. What a monster. However, I do know a human boy who is willing to sacrifice for his deceased family members.
From birth to death. Only at this age
Children are too easy to be seduced, too easily deceived, too easy to be used. They are completely unable to withstand fanning the flames, so they can carry a knife and go through life and death for others. In the final analysis, this race is ignorant and ridiculous. But he personally is very
He has the qualifications to transform into a demon."
"How should I put it... It seems that you have experienced a lot of interesting things. No wonder, if you hadn't witnessed thousands of joys and sorrows and been bored for a long time, I believe you wouldn't have the confidence to say these words.
Come."
"Oh, human beings' pursuit of heirs is really more pathological than any other race. To this day, there are still ignorant people who don't know the heights of the world, tormenting themselves, tormenting others, and even going around burning incense and praying to various evil gods. People are always
He has no long memory and is so forgetful that it makes people laugh. Enough is enough, there are already so many humans in the world that even Yama is bored!"
Guixiangu's fingertips tapped the table in an orderly manner, repeating the cycle.
"That sir...don't you just want humanity to prosper?"
Lord Xueyue slowly put a puff of white smoke on her face, and a sweet and strange fragrance hit her face. Then, she moved the cigarette rod slightly away from her mouth, narrowed her eyes and said:
"Are you kidding? Even that adult feels that the spread of humans has seriously threatened the survival of other species. Moreover, you humans - have you misunderstood that adult's position for so long?
What an arrogant race. Even mortals
Yes, the same goes for immortals. I have seen too many people like you cultivating immortals. You are not the only one who has fallen into the devil's way. To practice immortality and achieve enlightenment, it is required that this person or monster has no distracting thoughts, no desires and no desires.
.But in fact, isn’t the pursuit of immortality the greatest greed?”
The condemned person gently waved his hand to disperse the sweet smoke. The ghost fairy was not angry, but said lightly:
"You clearly made a dogmatic statement without understanding Lao Cao's original intention. However, I forgive you."
"When will I need you to forgive me?"
Lord Xueyue bit the words "you" and "I" very hard, and at the same time pointed at each other with the cigarette rod, and then at himself. Guixiangu didn't care about her rude behavior, she just looked after herself.
He continued:
"Having said that, emotions in the world are free to be interpreted by people. It may be a momentary impulse, a momentary passion, a blink of an eye... or it may be a promise of loyalty for the rest of your life. People who are born for each other are lucky enough to meet each other, and they are like each other.
They live a harmonious life and grow old together; there are also words from parents who order a matchmaker, and they spend their whole life with green hair and white hair, stumbling along.
To the end; there is more love and hatred intertwined, fighting to the death, until the day of burial. The world is very big, and time is very long. As long as you look a little more, and look a little more, one day, you will definitely feel for
Those who had their pounding hearts and eternal vows stopped and shed tears. At that time, it would be too late for you to talk about numbness."
"Men and women, making promises and betraying each other, never tire of it - I'm tired of seeing it, and have no interest in knowing more. Those oaths that turn into lies in a blink of an eye, it's okay not to listen. Besides, human life is too short, and they disperse like dandelions in the wind.
.The back and forth of each other’s vows is really endless.”
"I have no regrets."
The air that followed was extremely quiet. There was no one inside or outside the store. There was no chirping of birds or insects, and even the wind never blew. Not only the space, but also time seemed to have frozen, and the two of them seemed to have been enchanted.
Like a binding spell, it was firmly fixed with the air. The world was so quiet that one could hear the sound of blood flowing through one's limbs and bones, but no one seemed to mind.
After a long time, Lord Xueyue let out a soft sigh.
"It's really interesting. It's your turn to educate me." She turned the cigarette rod upside down and knocked it on the table. The blue-white ashes fell on the table and melted into the wind in just a breath. "But I don't hate it.
You. You seem to regard yourself as a human being, but you don’t regard yourself as a human being. You are like a monster who admits that you are a monster.”
Even though it was so offensive, Guixiangu still didn't mind: "You are not the first person to evaluate me like this. However, I believe that these words are not meant to praise or criticize. I also want to believe that you are just stating what you think.
It’s just straightforward.”
"Oh, it's rare for you to think so - but admittedly, I am really looking forward to the day that you, the monster, talk about."
"It would be better if you tell the truth."
"Shall I make a bet with you?" She put away her cigarette, "Whether I can experience what you call...the joy of understanding human love in my lifetime. It seems that you think I don't understand it enough."
"You have never understood." Guixiangu said with a smile, "But what do you want to bet on? I am somewhat interested."
"Of course I can't understand the foolishness of a moth flying into a fire. As for what to bet on... If one day I shed a tear for this, then you have won; if until you and I are both extinct, I will still insist on my
Attitude means you lose."
"It sounds quite interesting. So, what's the bargaining chip? I'm an old man with nothing in his sleeves. I'm afraid it's not as good as what you have accumulated over thousands of years."
"I don't have much property," Lord Xueyue shrugged, "I can lose this Qinglian Town to you. Although it is empty now and is not my own property, it is indeed an important thing to me to this day. It
It’s a rare and clean place to escape from the world. Don’t underestimate it. But if I win..."
Lord Xueyue raised his body slightly and moved closer to her. At some point, all the dishes and dishes on the table disappeared completely, leaving only the teacups in front of the two of them. Guixiangu remained motionless and let herself go.
She approached head on.
"You have to give me your shadow."
"Well, this is indeed something important to me. In the past, I have always been the only one who harvested shadows. It is not a choice to take it with you in life or death, and leave it to whoever you want."
Lord Xueyue sat back and picked up the cup.
"But I refuse."
Guixiangu's speech was so sudden that she was caught off guard. She lost control and crushed the tea cup. The fragments were embedded in her flesh, but she didn't feel any pain. She just let the scarlet hot blood flow along the fragments and between her fingers.
The lines, drop by drop, fell on the table, as if eye-catching red lotuses bloomed.
"Oh... to express my apology, let me read your palm." Guixiangu tilted her head slightly, "This is one of the few eaters that I am proud of."
"..."
Lord Xueyue didn't speak, but frowned at her, feeling confused. Guixiangu ignored her and pulled her wrist. Her injured palm naturally spread out, and the blood-soaked porcelain fragments disappeared, and the scars
But it does exist, but it is temporarily covered up by a flowing red.
"……oops."
Guixiangu rarely showed a surprised look, and Lord Xueyue looked a little displeased.
"Soon, you will meet a... noble person."
"My lord? Tsk." When she withdrew her hand, the wound had healed. But at these words, Lord Xueyue sneered.
"It's true. If I tell lies about fate, I will be punished by God."
"Mysterious."
Guixiangu shook her head. What was strange was that her expression was more serious than ever before, as if she was a different person.
