Xiao Liwu skipped ahead, and She Ji followed behind him, looking at him silently.
Strictly speaking, it was just a human child called "Louwu".
After all, he is just a child, he only cares about food and not about beatings. Although he had suffered many inexplicable and inhumane treatments before, as long as he offered some kind words and some sweet treats as compensation, he could temporarily forget about these. After knowing each other for such a long time, She Ji roughly figured out his personality. Indeed, no matter how many times that person has been reincarnated, many of the characteristics embodied in human beings are still incompatible with those of his own race. Only the playful, active, and thoughtful nature of children at this age is well reflected in him.
As a monster, She Ji's attitude towards humans has always been the same and has not changed much. I can't say I like it, nor can I say I hate it, but it's a bit common among the great demons to look down on it. This feeling is probably like humans and a group of monkeys living in the same forest. There are some lovable monkeys and some annoying ones. Most of the time, if you don't mess with them, they won't bother you very much. It wasn't She Jiqi who beat him, he simply thought so, and it is still the same now. In his eyes, the young boy in front of him now was like a maverick little monkey, jumping up and down, but She Ji clearly knew that he was once a human being and wanted to cultivate him into an adult now.
Uh, monster. That's just a metaphor.
Death Shadow Pavilion has been extremely busy recently, and he is too busy to take care of this brat's affairs. During his busy period, Xiao Liuwu escaped from the barrier six more times in various ways. He was not a peaceful child to begin with. Not only did he have many weird and wonderful ideas, he was also uniquely talented in onmyoji. This can be considered a good thing, but She Ji is not in a hurry to cultivate in this area. He has more important goals and priorities. Fortunately, Xiao Liwu was quite smart and knew that it was very dangerous outside the barrier, and he might not be able to survive even if he ran out. He just seemed...particularly interested in breaking the shackles and breaking the rules themselves. This also makes it easy for She Ji to find some shadows of the past, even if a thousand years have passed.
In the eyes of monsters, the soul is the only way to identify one's identity. He has a similar appearance to Lu Wu, has the same bad personality, powerful abilities that cannot be ignored, and the same soul. Then why can't he be Luowu?
Although human cubs are more troublesome in She Ji's eyes, this kid is different. Ye Xuici has taken advantage of his busy days to find out information for him. The key to getting "Lou Wu" closer to Li Wu is somewhere far away. Even if there are many shortcuts along the way that can be taken using spiritual veins, the overall calculation is not too close. By now, he was finally busy.
Yu Yumingxu Gaoyuejun is one of the few, or almost the only human being he deserves to respect. Although her appearance may be closer to that of a monster. She Ji would not refuse the task entrusted by her. There are only a few human beings who do not favor others of the same race, and Gao Yuejun is one of them. Her concept of weighing the value of things is recognized by She Ji. Moreover, he believed that this woman was capable enough to fulfill their initial agreement - in fact, she was already doing so.
It was she who told him how to find the whereabouts of Lian Wu's soul... using eyes tempered by hellfire. He touched the empty right eye under the blindfold and put his hand down again. The inactivated eyeballs of the Hundred Skeleton Master could not stay alive for long in his sockets, but it was enough for him to trace back to his origins and search for traces of his best friend's visit in the hell scene, and then follow the clues to explore what he could reach in his lifetime. place, waiting for the time to come. He did it, and he was satisfied. But after that, Death Shadow Pavilion tried its best not to let those important eyes retain their vitality, and finally burned suddenly one day, leaving a handful of ashes that melted into the air. In fact, if she didn't need it, She Ji wouldn't want to put that thing into her eyes again - the thing was so hot, like a red-hot iron, that although it wouldn't hurt anyone, it would cause excruciating pain. When using it, it will also consume a large amount of the user's demon power, as if his whole body is burned up as firewood. Even the eyeball seemed to be moving, as if it knew that it was not in the body of its owner. Although it had no arms or legs, it was still struggling to escape like a trapped animal.
Anyway, he no longer has to suffer such a crime.
After finishing everything he was doing, he only had one thought. Ye Xuici is a rare and reliable human being, and he chooses to trust him. Nothing else but the inhuman part that existed in her heart since she was born, when she was still human.
Now, She Ji has taken this kid a long way and passed through several spiritual veins. The child was not too tired. He was always energetic during this long journey, playing with cats and dogs, and was very happy. She Ji knew very well that this life was the one in which he was most likely to see the light of day again in the same posture as before. Compared with Ye Xuici's restraint, his inhuman part is more public and obvious. She Ji knew exactly what it was. In human nature, good and evil are equal from birth, which is the same as all creatures in the world. The nature of human nature cannot be completely good. After all, even young cats and dogs will fight for breast milk and punch and kick their brothers and sisters in their mother's arms. But at the same time, the nature of human nature is not entirely evil. In the era when human beings were still in the age of feeding on hair and drinking blood, without mutual division of labor and mutual cooperation, we would never have established such a huge population today.
From the beginning, those who only have absolute goodness in their hearts are fools. Pure goodness blinds their minds, preventing them from discerning what is evil and what is evil. Such false kindness is foolishness. What people call true kindness is a kind of wisdom, which is knowing what is right and wrong, good and evil, and still choosing to do good, even if you are the one who suffers. But evil is very different... Innate evil is also a kind of wisdom, but it is a wisdom that the human species rejects. This kind of thing is called demonic nature. Aren't bad-minded children often called "little devils" and "troublemakers" by adults? This is a manifestation of demonic nature. It's just that monsters don't think that evil as defined by humans is real evil. A truly bad boy, even if he does bad things as defined by humans, is just a way of existence in the eyes of monsters. Many people choose to do evil because their own experience and that of others tells them that doing so is profitable. Do young children understand those huge benefits? When the mind is not yet mature, the joy caused by doing evil is so pure. It is not like an adult's compensation for contending with the world, fate or anything else. Therefore, the lively little bad boy in front of him was closer to the existence of monsters than anyone She Ji had ever seen.
Isn't it because the child who was robbed of toys is too weak to snatch toys from his peers? Isn't it because the owner doesn't know how to take good care of his property when important things are stolen? Isn’t it possible to ridicule the weaknesses of others because they are real? Being pulled, pushed, or even pushed off a cliff... Isn't that because they let down their guard? Among monsters, it is of course necessary to be alert at all times. If you are as lazy as humans, you will die. Bullying and being bullied are all such trivial things that we take for granted. Even the victims themselves should understand this. It is their right to be angry or cry for this reason. Whether they can fight back effectively or not depends entirely on their ability, not even on their means. Naturally, many big demons disdain to express their stance on this. They are just used to seeing these behaviors, or understand what these behaviors mean in the eyes of humans. In addition, the big monsters have rich experience, powerful monster powers, and their shapes are closer to humans. Therefore, monsters like him make people feel more friendly and "human". In fact, this is just human wishful thinking.
Xiao Luwu had already run very far ahead, almost beyond She Ji's field of vision. He sniffed the air, which felt moister than before - a child's senses are always so sharp. Lu Wu judged that there was a water source not far away. He happened to be a little thirsty, so instead of going back to ask She Ji for a kettle, it was faster to go find it himself. So he ran faster, passed through the weeds half a person's height in front of him, pushed aside the flowers that were in the way, and actually discovered a lake. The clear lake water is sparkling under the breeze, which makes people feel relaxed and happy. Just as he was about to step forward to pick up the water, he suddenly heard the sound of teasing the water not far away.
A woman, who looked quite young, was near him. She was half-crouching by the lake, scooping up water and splashing it on her face. This matter had nothing to do with him. But at this moment, Luowu had bad thoughts again. Before the woman noticed him, he quietly retreated and walked around from behind the woman who was washing her face. There was only the sound of rushing water in her ears, and she was completely unaware of the approaching danger.
"!"
There was a loud pop and the woman was kicked into the water. She immediately started struggling in the water. Luowu didn't know if the lake was deep or not, and he didn't know if the woman knew how to swim, but the look of her helplessly flopping in the water was really embarrassing. He couldn't help but laugh, leaning forward and back. Fortunately, it was very close to the shore and the water here was not very deep. She quickly crawled back to the shore and coughed violently. Although the climate was no longer cold, she was so wet that she sneezed several times in a row when the breeze aroused her. That pitiful appearance was indeed in a state of embarrassment and pity, but Luowu didn't think so.
"I thought it was so deep here that you would slowly sink and turn into a string of gurgling bubbles."
He said these words easily, as if it were not such a sinful thing to do. The girl regained her composure, opened her eyes wide, and looked at him in surprise. She couldn't believe why such a young child could be so malicious and even carry it out. Isn't this naked murder? How on earth can his parents raise such a child?
"Huh?" Xiao Liuwu looked at her curiously, "Why don't you say anything? That's strange. Don't most people yell like crazy people when they first come up? You must be scared out of your wits. Ah, wait a minute. … Could it be that you are not only a landlubber, but also a mute?”
Ye Yinquan was stunned, she stood there dripping wet. She felt that even if she could say something, she was shocked and speechless by this vile speech.
