The arrival of the beast was a mixed blessing. Although it frightened the people in the fort, it also frightened away several reinforcements from the Rakshasa family outside the city. In the next four days, apart from dealing with other chores, Li Bochen spent most of his time observing the reactions of the Rakshasa in the fort.
The remaining hundreds of Rakshasa were imprisoned in the dark alley behind the square. The first day was normal - they were used to obeying powerful forces, so no one was dissatisfied with swearing allegiance to Li Bochen. Like Noya back then, they swore an oath to eliminate the demon king. On the second day, Li Bochen discovered something unusual about them. With a Rakshasa's temperament, once he has enough to eat and no worries about life and death, he will not worry about the future. But during this day, most Rakshasa's emotions were very unstable, showing obvious fear.
Some people hid in the darkness and were afraid of contact with others. Others seemed to regret their actions yesterday and began to pray to the Demon Lord. Lixxi even began to kill his own kind as sacrifices to the Demon Lord, killing thirty people in one day. , but Li Boxen did not interfere in all this. By the third day, the fear and uneasiness were even worse. Even Lixie's ferocity was overcome and she also joined in the prayers.
The situation suddenly changed on the fourth day. After discovering that nothing bad had happened for three consecutive days and that they were in warm underground and had plenty of food, the Rakshasa became less afraid. The one who changed the fastest was Lixie. He would even point to his broken horn and say: "Look, my horn was broken by the castle master. Who else has had his horn broken by the castle master?"
Li Bochen didn't understand why he would regard this as an honor, nor why the remaining Rakshasa would think the same. Because of the broken horn, Lixxi quickly won people's hearts and became the well-deserved new leader of these Rakshasa. He had said in the house that day that he would kill himself if he had the chance, but now he seemed to have forgotten all about it, and began to preach from time to time about how much better his life was now than before - he felt that he had become as smart as a fire bearer. .
"I guess it's because this horn is broken, something in my head is no longer pressed, and my brain becomes faster." But he said fiercely, "You are not allowed to do this. Because I This horn was broken by the castle owner himself."
Li Bochen took back the Yin spirit. He is now standing on the rooftop of the main building of Black Leaf Castle, overlooking the entire castle. The Rakshasa in the castle seems to be no longer a problem, all because he is Beichen. But while this result made him feel relieved, he also felt some inexplicable fear.
From this angle, there were many people and hybrids still busy below, looking like worker ants, which gave him a sense of control. However, when you don't stand so high and talk to those "worker ants", you know that they are living people, each with their own ideas, and they are not very different from yourself. But the power of the Spirit God subdued them like Rakshasas. Although the Six Emperors did not make them as ignorant and paranoid as Rakshasas, they also exerted a powerful influence in another way.
This influence can make Rakshasa become like a beast, or it can make the people of the Six Kingdoms continue to shed their blood in the north for thousands of years. However, just as he had thought before, these sacrifices were only to implement the will of gods and demons - in this world, can people or Rakshasa really have their own ideas? Even these thoughts that I have now... do they come from the Li Bochen who just came to this world a few years ago, or the Li Bochen who has gradually integrated with Beichen now?
As a controller, even he is being changed by himself. Will someone look at me at this time, just like I look at these Rakshasa?
Li Bochen realized that he came from another world, which indeed gave him a lot of advantages, but it also brought a lot of troubles. If it were the original Li Bochen, he would never care about "whether his thoughts are really his own thoughts." He couldn't say these thoughts to others...but in fact, he also had one person. When he was in Mengjiatun, he could tell Xiaoman everything in his heart. She was always serious and focused, and could truly understand him.
Six months have passed since our separation. It was August, and the distant high country should be warm and lush. What was she doing? Four more months...
Thinking of this, he smiled inwardly. Am I being "indecisive" again? But she was the only one who could understand my indecision. Well, at least I still need that power for now. I have to do what I want with this power first, and then I can try to subdue it or simply destroy it. I just hope that by the time I have that ability, I haven’t changed too much.
Thinking of this, he patted the cold female wall with his hand and let out a sigh of relief. Hearing the sound of footsteps, he turned around and saw Yang Baoping, wearing armor, walking up quickly.
"One good news and one bad news." Yang Baoping said, "The bad news is that three of our people died. Two of my people and one of your people. The good news is that it was done by Xie - it has not yet Walk."
Li Bochen frowned secretly. Compared with Rakshasa, Yang Baoping is almost a human being. But the reason why it is "almost" is because sometimes she will say what she just said - it seems that three lives are not worth cherishing in front of that ferocious beast. However, he knew that now that he was in this land, he had to accept many different values, so he only said: "You still want to see it?"
Yang Baoping glared and said, "You promised me a few days ago!"
Li Bochen nodded and said: "It's just that we should be prepared. That's a female ferocious with a cub. It stayed in the hills in the north for the past two days, and went to the west yesterday. I thought they were gone. Now look , it should regard that hill as its nest and feel that the surrounding areas are its territory.”
Yang Baoping was used to him often showing off his unknown abilities, and was no longer surprised that he knew these things. He just said: "Then what are you waiting for? Let's go now? This is only the morning, and there is still a whole day It’s God’s work.”
Li Bochen hesitated for a moment, originally wanting to say that it would be better to observe it for two more days. In the past few days, he asked Xu Cheng about the habits of this thing, but even Feng Xuejian didn't know much about it. He only said that there were not many of them, and most of them were males and females together, and occasionally they lived in groups. He has very high intelligence, but his lifespan is not too long, only thirty or forty years.
But the things he was thinking about just now made him feel a little irritable, and there was no big trouble in the castle. Although there were still many trivial matters, Ge Xuanbai and Yang Baoping's deputy handled them well, and there was no need for him to worry. So he hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay. Then go and meet it."
