Autumn nights are extremely cold. The bleak evening breeze blew by, but the house didn't feel cold at all. It is true that her sense of temperature exists, but she just doesn't know when to wear less and when to wear more. But she seemed to have no problem with the heat or the cold. Her physique is so good that she doesn't need to pay attention to temperature changes.
Zishu came out wearing only a single coat, which was so white that it dazzled the eyes at night. The red coat hung on her arm. She just held it casually and had no intention of putting it on immediately. She walked quite far, and the top of this place was facing the guest room where they were resting, but there was no tree standing here. Maybe there is, but the location is wrong and it doesn't match the angle at which moonlight would be projected.
That flower shadow must be an illusion. Who is lying to her? Was she the one who lied? What did you lie to her about? Even so, she smelled a familiar fragrance. She must have smelled this scent, just... not long ago.
"You're here." This was a female voice that Zishu had never heard before.
Looking back, she saw an unfamiliar face, but the scent was extremely familiar. The voice of the visitor was so kind, as if he was so familiar with her, and she also knew something about that person's aura. This first meeting made the two of them feel less alienated.
Although whether it can be considered a good thing or not is another matter.
"You are the evil envoy of adultery." Zishu said bluntly, "I know you. You have harmed many people, and almost the whole village has become your food. You will not let go of the rest. Although you left that In the village, the branches and leaves are still stretched out there, poisoning people's spirits and continuing to squeeze out what little value they have left."
Tao Zhu was stunned, tilting his head and thinking seriously for a while.
"Which one do you mean?"
"I also know that you have done this more than once." Zishu replied calmly, "We all know. You are an evil envoy who spreads the seeds of evil in this way. You and your comrades are still in their infancy. , does not have much power. However, there are too many humans in the world. It is too easy for you to find food, and you will grow stronger soon. If you are allowed to go on unbridled, the entire world will be in chaos."
When he said this, She Zishu's eyes glanced around calmly. She saw and heard no one else. What she knew was that there was a male corpse next to Tao Zhu, who was her brother. He was the end of her collapse and the beginning of her madness. But it seemed that he was not nearby - at least not within her sight.
"So? Do you want to punish evil and promote good?" Tao Zhu opened his eyes wide.
She does have a demonic beauty about her, and even women like She Zishu commented on her in this way. Tao Zhu has a good face and a good foundation, but he didn't keep up with food and clothing in his early years. His current skin texture has been repaired by demonic power, and Zi Shu can feel it. This feeling is strange, like only a girl can figure out whether a girl has ever put on light makeup. However, on top of this layer of beauty, in addition to the light powder, there is also a subtle malice, like a thin layer of poison. Even a centimeter on your fingertip can be fatal.
"I don't know what to do." Zishu did not shy away. She has always been like this, whether to friends or so-called enemies.
"I guess you will think so, hahaha..." Tao Zhu's voice when he laughed was also very soft, like petals falling gently on people's hearts, causing shallow ripples. But Zishu's face was calm and he looked straight at her. After Tao Zhu finished laughing, he continued: "That's why I can call you down. If you don't agree with me, I can't call you down."
"I think I am not the same kind of person as you. At least I know that it is wrong for you to do this."
"Well... do you know, or do your 'friends' know?" she asked, rereading certain three words.
In front of her, She Zishu fell silent for the first time. She felt in a daze that what Tao Zhu said was right. She just heard Ling Huan's thoughts, but she still couldn't really agree with them. She also knew that Chenxing didn't like her, but she couldn't deny that she vaguely agreed with this person's ideas. Chenxing didn't say it explicitly, but showed it without hiding it.
"Admit it, you know what you are thinking. This world is full of malice. Those etiquette, justice and shame are just tricks to coax children, and they are tools used by superiors to fool the people. A sober and complete adult like you, let everything start again, Creating a new understanding of this human world will inevitably lead to this ending."
She Zishu wanted to shake her head, but she didn't. She pondered for a long time, and finally asked dryly:
"I didn't know you were so eloquent. Those who didn't know, thought you were the evil messenger of Qiyu."
"It's almost a guess, hahahaha... I heard this from another friend of the evil angel, but it's not Qiyu. She is just a child after all, and is far from mature enough for humans or monsters. Although we are not much different in age, she has experienced too little. Rather, she is very lucky. She has been protected by the six impermanences and has healed some scars caused by memory... Facing those things directly can make her grow. .”
Shezi didn't care about the evil messenger of Qiyu, she keenly caught the other identity that appeared in the topic.
"A lie? That's just some lies. It's hard for me to believe it - you can believe it if you want." She finally shook her head gently, "And why is he telling you these things?"
"Although the center of the topic is not you, but another person. But what he said made sense to me, so I wrote it down. Did you know? You are not the only one who has lost his memory like this."
"What do you want to say? If you want to introduce someone, just go straight to the point. I have no obligation to stand with you until dawn."
"You are really impatient. Are you afraid that if I convince you, you won't go back?" Tao Zhu waved his hand, "Okay, I'm just joking. Let me tell you directly, it's Lord Ruyue in December of Underworld ”
"Six Paths of Impermanence?"
"Have you heard of her?"
"What she said...it seems like something unexpected happened recently."
"That's right, I don't know what kind of villain beat her to pieces... It's really too much. She was once a corpse, and when she was brought back to consciousness, her mind was just blank. Like you, she was even much more manic. But those chaotic consciousnesses finally reconciled in her body, creating the current Kisaragi-kun - everyone thinks so."
"What you said...isn't it?"
"That's not accurate. Don't forget, the person who led her to the right track was the Lord of the Hundred Skeletons. They knew each other, and the Lord of the Hundred Skeletons also knew what to do. And what about Yama Demon? He took advantage of it and took her Even under her command, Master Bai Skeleton is willing to protect her integrity. Now that something like this has happened, no one wants to see it."
"What exactly do you want to say?"
"Coincidentally." Tao Zhu spread his hands, took two steps forward and continued, "The Master of Hundreds of Bones was once a monster made up of the corpses of hundreds of people. Each part of the body had a different consciousness. But, he also After receiving guidance and education, he now says that good is not good, but also says that evil is not evil. But what about you? Do you have such good luck...or should I say, destiny? Have a kind understanding of the world, or Is it a 'good' thing to treat everything in the world with kindness? You see, even if there are good people supporting you along the way, you will eventually form your own ideas. Perhaps their kindness is too weak. This It’s not surprising that kindness itself represents weakness.”
Zishu said in a daze: "I don't think so... I may not have found a way to refute you, but there must still be so-called goodness in the world. But I don't know if I am obsessed with it. I don't seem to be pursuing goodness. It’s necessary, but the people around me do it, and I do the same. They need me..."
"Many people need you, but no one really needs you." Tao Zhu frowned, "We are all abandoned by the world, but don't forget... not everyone is so lucky to be protected. , and was educated. But if I had a choice, I would rather make the same choice. It is tragic to face the bloody truth, but it is much better than muddleheaded self-deception. My words are also very clear, the person mentioned before My friends are just using me. The same goes for your friends. By using you and wooing you, they are trying to kidnap you with their good deeds."
Zishu recalled it a little and seemed to think that this statement made sense. Think about it, doesn't Chenxing dislike her too? In the end, he still gave a lot of orders to himself, and it was indeed a bit... to take advantage of himself. However, she didn't feel angry. Why? Seemingly normal people, even evil angels can get angry. What did she do before she lost her memory? Could it be that he is a killer? This can also explain her skills and her instinct to obey orders. She doesn't even have any thoughts that she doesn't want to admit. What she cares more about is whether the thought of doing something for others is really due to these dark reasons that she can't think about, or is it some kind of good instinct to help others?
If it is for self-satisfaction, is this another kind of self-impression?
She fell into unprecedented entanglements.
"You have to be careful... Although I don't know what you have experienced before, you have lost your memory, but you have saved your life. Life is indeed precious, and if you are not careful like my brother, it will cause suffering to the living. It is said that once a person is After reincarnation, the memory of that person is no longer the previous memory. Even if it is taken out and stuffed back into the past body, it will not help. Ruyue-kun is such an example. But I should always give it a try. There must be a way to make everything perfect. .”
"I would like to advise you to give up this unrealistic fantasy." Zishu said ruthlessly, "Since you also know that the human soul is reincarnated and the memory will be erased, don't do these futile things. The body is Mine, my life is mine, my memory is mine, and my ideas are mine. If my soul is gone, they will never be able to recover. To say the least, even if the body is injured, it can be repaired. If it is so rotten that there is no cure Rescue, as long as the consciousness is still there, you can still try to find a new body - isn't Yingyue-kun always doing this kind of thing? Aren't those puppets also cold corpses? It will be difficult for you to retrieve your soul and reach the sky , but if it’s just a change of body, wouldn’t it be as easy as changing a piece of clothing or a different place of residence?”
Tao Zhu should have been stimulated, but she fell into brief shock. She did not take action against Zishu, but murmured:
"You really... said something outrageous."
"I don't intend to apologize if I offended you. That's what I'm thinking. After all, why did you lure me out at night? If I just listen to you nagging about things that are and are not, I will Going back."
"Go back?" Tao Zhu's tone became weird, "Can you still go back?"
"...?"
