Chapter 579: Alive
Before leaving, the white-faced ghost went back to school and changed his clothes.
When he appeared in front of Chen Le again, it was already the same as when he saw her for the first time.
On the roof of the dormitory building, under the bright moonlight.
The white-faced ghost, as in the past, held a delicate white lace parasol, and wore a white Western-style aristocratic dress in addition to the graceful and delicate body, and the neckline of the dress was inlaid with beautiful lace, and even the cuffs and hem were embroidered with beautiful patterns, giving people a delicate and beautiful feeling.
The round fluffy skirt blooms like a flower.
Holding a small umbrella in his hand, in the silent moonlight, the graceful posture is light, graceful, ethereal and thorough.
The white-faced ghost turned around, with a pair of eyes as clear as water, quietly staring at Chen Le, and chuckled in an elegant and tactful tone, "Then, that's it, it's time for me to go back." ”
Chen Le felt that the white-faced ghost was really different, and when the other cannibals were focused on eating people and focusing on improving their own strength, she was the only one who was unmoved.
She always dresses herself up like a noblewoman, looks elegant and calm, always has a tactful and elegant smile, and looks at you with a smile with crooked eyes.
Although I can't tell whether she is happy behind her expression, or if she wants to kill you in the next second, it is obvious that the white-faced ghost does not like that kind of rude and barbaric eating methods, hates cannibalism, and hates uncivilized eating methods.
I always like to dress myself up elegantly and exquisitely, and I like to imitate the way of eating like an upper-class aristocracy, to eat sweets, and to taste black tea.
When she walks, she occasionally lifts her skirt, obviously there is nothing on the ground, just because she thinks that the action of lifting the long skirt is very elegant and very in line with the demeanor of a noblewoman.
Obviously a cannibal, but he doesn't do his job well, and he only yearns for the life of a noble lady in human society wholeheartedly.
Chen Le said lightly, "You seem to like this very much." ”
"Isn't it pretty?"
"No, I just think it's inconvenient to wear a long skirt and fight. ”
In actual combat, it is likely that a little light clothing will affect the outcome of a battle.
Speaking of this, the white-faced ghost laughed softly as if he remembered something, "I once asked a few children, I said, what is the purpose of cannibalism, they said, is to become stronger, what is the purpose of becoming stronger, is it to not be killed, in order to fight, to live, what is the purpose of living, they thought about it for a long time, and they still replied to me that it is to eat people! As long as you live long enough and eat enough, you can become stronger......
The white-faced ghost said this, and smiled with a bit of mockery, "Actually, most people in the ghost clan don't know what they want to live, for them, they have to eat when they live, they eat to become stronger, they want to become stronger, they want to live longer, and what they do has nothing to do with their own ideals, pursuits, justice and evil, and there is no right or wrong." ”
"So I often think, is that enough, is this what we live for, to live?"
"She is worthy of being an older sister, far-sighted, thinking of things that ordinary people can't think of, and daring to do things that ordinary people don't dare to do. ”
Chen Le's sentence was sincere, after so long contact, he found that the white-faced ghost was really, very different.
It seems complicated, elusive, but in fact, it is very simple, and everything she does is for her greatest desire.
"It's useless to tout me now. ”
The white-faced ghost said this, as if he remembered something, and his eyes showed a little tenderness, remembering the light, as if he was saying to Chen Le, and as if he was saying to himself, and whispered, "When I was very young, when I was hunted down by other aliens and hunters, and I could only survive in the sewers, in the mud, in the rice fields, and in the caves. ”
"On one occasion when I was almost killed by a hunter, it was a lady-like figure passing by who rescued me. ”
She got out of the carriage, and was flanked by the maids on either side, carrying her long and splendid dresses, and looked at me, and with just a few words, she repelled the mighty hunters, and then saved me. ”
"She took me home, entertained me with black tea and cake, it was the most delicious food that I can never forget, and gave me a new dress, I was relatively innocent at the time, I didn't want to deceive her, I told her that I was an ogre, why save me. ”
She smiled and said, she knew, but so what?
"Is it my own choice? No. None of us can choose our origins, some people are born rich, some people are born poor, some people are born noble, some people are born low, the past cannot be changed, but we can choose the future we want. ”
"The ants in the garden live for food every day, they live for food, they don't even have the right to choose. ”
"But we can think that we can change for the future we want, although it may not be successful, but we are all lucky to be human!"
Then she let me go, and gave me some fruit and cooked meat, and I went all the way to the brook in the forest, and looked at the white dress I was wearing, and at my own face in the stream, which I had never seen before, and I suddenly realized that I could be so clean and so beautiful, and I found for the first time something other than food. ”
"Yes, I found that calm, elegant, indifferent, and intelligent appearance is what I want, that is the future I want, and then these fruits that I couldn't eat before suddenly became delicious. ”
“......”
Chen Le found that when the white-faced ghost said these words, his little bare face shone with holiness and happiness, and his eyes flashed with the sacrosanct brilliance of a pilgrim, and the sweet smile on the corners of his pink lips seemed to have seen the bright future he hoped for.
Chen Le suddenly understood the white-faced ghost a little.
He felt that white-faced ghosts should not be ghosts, and he wanted to be a person more than many people!
"Okay, that's it, I don't know why I'm telling you this, maybe I suddenly remembered it. ”
The white-faced ghost said, looking directly into Chen Le's eyes, and said with a smile, "Then sister, let's go first." ”
"Well, good. ”
Chen Le nodded slightly.
Then the white-faced ghost lifted the long skirt with one hand, owed a bow, nodded slightly, and bowed to Chen Le elegantly, as if it was the posture of saying goodbye to the prince at the end of the ball, "Then goodbye, Mr. Knight, don't die easily." ”
“......”
After speaking, the whole person jumped back, bounced high, and disappeared into the darkness after a few jumps in midair.
Until the white-faced ghost disappeared for a long time, Chen Le still stood on the roof of the building, letting the cold wind blow, and stared blankly at the direction where the white-faced ghost disappeared.
He thought, "If that's the ideal of a white-faced ghost, then what is your own ideal, your own ideal, your own ideal that you don't live for the sake of living?"
