Chapter 31: This demon’s brain is not very easy to use
Tang Ling was stunned.
This big brother...
Of course, Tang Ling didn't know who was the male or female of Xiao Hei. She even thought that Xiao Hei had no gender, and the animal he possessed was of that gender.
Then let’s call him big brother.
Tang Ling suddenly remembered that Tang Linfeng had also said that when Xiao Hei entrusted him and Liu Ru with a dream after his death, he also said that he could not remember who he was.
From this, Tang Ling came to a conclusion.
This Big Brother Demon... is not very smart.
I really have a headache, and I don’t know how Nangong Xun, who has suffered so much, feels after hearing this.
The haggard young man didn't seem particularly surprised, but the light in his eyes seemed to dim a little, and then he smiled without meaning.
"What do you think?"
Nangong Xun threw the question back to Xiao Hei.
Somehow, Tang Ling could hear a hint of resentment in these words.
This discovery made her feel that if she had a body, she would definitely have goosebumps at this moment.
Xiao Hei's tone was cold and he said dryly: "I forgot."
Nangong Xun laughed to himself, "You mean, before moving into the military camp?"
He didn't have much strength left, and Tang Ling could see that the act of laughing was also very difficult for him.
After all, the flesh on his cheeks was almost gone. When he laughed, he pulled at the dry skin. Tang Ling was afraid that the skin would split in the next moment.
Xiao Hei nodded.
After Nangong Xun finished laughing with difficulty, he suddenly lost his expression and said coldly: "I don't know you."
Xiao Hei continued to stand there for a moment. At this moment, Tang Qing couldn't feel any of Xiao Hei's emotional fluctuations.
Sometimes Tang Ling really doesn't understand what some of Xiao Hei's actions mean, whether it's from what others say or what he sees with his own eyes.
Just like she didn't understand why Xiao Hei came to see Nangong Xun.
Save people?
Then why not save the person before execution? Judging from its behavior today, it is clear that it can accurately know the time and place of Nangong Xun's execution.
If you don’t save people, then... is this a joke?
This should be even more impossible.
Tang Ling even felt that Xiao Hei would not have such emotions.
It always seems to be like this. It doesn't actually care about many things and many answers. Sometimes it just does some behaviors that imitate ordinary creatures just for the sake of routine.
It seems that the final answer is to ask Nangong Xun.
Does it matter whether you recognize him or not to this devil who is not very smart?
Knowing it or not, will it behave differently next?
Tang Ling soon learned what Xiao Hei would do to people he didn't know.
After a while, it turned around and left without saying a word.
The swift and decisive movements made Tang Ling feel that he was too cold and heartless.
"Wait a minute!"
Nangong Xun's slightly anxious voice came from behind.
Xiao Hei turned around in response and saw a slight disappointment on Nangong Xun's face, "You just... left like this?"
Xiao Hei tilted his head and looked at Nangong Xun without saying a word, as if he was asking "what else?"
"Do you believe I am a rebel?" Nangong Xun asked coldly.
Although his voice was extremely deep, Tang Ling caught a glimpse of a faint light in his eyes hidden by his dirty long hair.
"Is it important?" Xiao Hei glanced at his body covered by clothes and said in a tone without any emotion, "It's already like this."
The undetectable light in Nangong Xun's eyes quickly disappeared, he lowered his eyes and said softly, "You didn't ask me, do you regret it?"
Xiao Hei was silent for a moment, "What do you regret?"
Nangong Xun looked a little confused, "I heard that ancient monsters can travel through different time and space. I don't know if you are, but if you are, can you tell me, if I choose another path, will it be different?
”
Tang Ling understood what he meant.
Would it be different if I had not chosen to join the army, but could have quietly been a weapon-refining genius in my family and continued to develop my family's skills?
Is Nangong Xun still the high-spirited and wanton "bully" of Zhenchao Pass? Will the Nangong family not be destroyed?
Maybe in another time and space, if Nangong Xun chose another path, would it be different?
According to Tang Ling and Song Nan's speculation, Xiao Hei is indeed one of the ancient monsters, and may also be the most mysterious dream eater.
But whether it can travel through various time and space has always been a mystery.
Tang Ling was also very curious, so she quietly waited for Xiao Hei's response.
Xiao Hei closed his eyes first, then slowly opened them, looking at Nangong Xun with his calm eyes.
"It doesn't matter which way you choose."
"Really?" Nangong Xun's voice fluctuated a little, and he confirmed again and again, "Did you see it?"
Xiao Hei didn't nod, but he said a few more words, "The path you choose, the things you do, you bear the consequences, it's fair."
Nangong Xun was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly laughed softly, "You are so indifferent."
He smiled to himself for a moment and then remained silent for a long time.
Xiao Hei miraculously did not leave, but kept waiting silently at the same place, watching the words and deeds of this man who had experienced ups and downs in life when he was about to die.
"What you said makes sense." Nangong Xun began to mutter to himself, "If I had not chosen to join the army when I saw those suffering people when I was young, I would regret it now. No matter which path I take, I will regret it. So, talk about
This is meaningless. What’s important is the process, isn’t it?”
But... the result was very tragic.
Tang Ling thought of all the people in the Nangong family, no matter men, women, old or young, so many lives...
Nangong Xun's rickety figure at this time is probably bent by so many lives, right?
"People from the Nangong family..."
Sure enough, Nangong Xun asked timidly.
"Dead." Xiao Hei answered extremely quickly and indifferently, not caring at all how much impact his words would have on the man in front of him.
Nangong Xun's face was violently distorted, and his eyes turned red instantly. He opened his mouth, but no sound came out. It seemed that he was too excited and coughed several times unbearably. The coughing was so violent that he almost attracted the officers and soldiers.
Come.
"I should have known." Nangong Xun took a long time to calm down and said bitterly, "They wanted me to live to see the destruction of the Nangong family, so they kept me until the end."
Tang Ling had no idea how Xiao Hei knew this.
These days, she watched it eating and doing nothing in the jungle, and didn't even go out to inquire about anything.
Perhaps in Xiao Hei's memory, there is a protection mechanism for some of his unknown abilities that will not let her see them.
What Xiao Hei said next confirmed Tang Ling's conjecture, making her think that Xiao Hei must have some way of not showing up in this memory, but this method could allow it to know many things quietly. p>
"There is still a single seedling left." Xiao Hei added, "The fifth lady's son."
A flash of light flashed across Nangong Xun's eyes, "Can'er? Who saved him?"
"I can only sense these." Xiao Hei said.
These are enough.
Nangong Xun's eyes rolled, and a look of pleading appeared on his face, "I don't regret what I did, but the Nangong family... is my fault after all. Can you——"
"No." Xiao Hei flatly refused before Nangong Xun could say anything.
"Why do you have so many wishes?" It rarely used a somewhat impatient tone, "I didn't grant you the last one."
Normal people should feel uncomfortable being rejected, but Nangong Xun's reaction was also a bit strange.
He seemed very happy that Xiao Hei could talk to him in an impatient tone. He did not feel frustrated, but insisted, "I was just about to say, I don't want the last one, but you promise me this one. These two are also in love with each other."
Contradictory."
Xiao Hei looked at him with a sullen face and did not respond.
"There is no need to bury me in that flower field. Bring my soul after death to Chan'er. I want to protect him until he grows old."
Nangong Xun ignored Xiao Hei's expression at all. In his world, Xiao Hei never seemed to be a terrible demon, but just an ordinary friend.
So now he is just asking his friends for one last favor before he dies.
Ordinary friends generally won't refuse.
But it is Xiaohei.
"I don't know where Nangong Can has gone. His aura has disappeared in Nangong Mansion."
It said firmly, "You have to find it yourself."
"But I'm going to die soon." Nangong Xun said.
When Tang Ling heard the word "death", she felt a little sore in her chest.
She was a little confused, but she immediately realized that this pain seemed to be Xiao Hei's physical sensation.
Tang Ling was shocked.
This was the first time she felt Xiao Hei's mood swings.
It turns out that it also has emotions.
"It depends on my mood."
After saying these words, Xiao Hei left the cell without looking back.
