Chapter 199: Tyrannical Humans
Douzi wiped the water stains on his face with a sluggish face, thinking that Jiuyue was simply choked by the water, so he stood up and slapped Jiuyue's back vigorously. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
In this way, Jiuyue really doesn't want to continue to discuss the topic of marriage with Douzi...... After all, she doesn't understand the world of monsters.
After Jiuyue's relief came, she reluctantly turned her head: "Your demon clan, aren't you on the same page as the human tribe?
Speaking of this, Douzi's excitement disappeared all of a sudden, and he said in a trance: "...... My sister is right, the demon clan has indeed been unable to coexist peacefully with the human tribe......"
"Human beings have expanded their territory, logged, chiseled rocks, plundered land, and excessively demanded land, resulting in smaller and smaller areas where we can live, and because of the destruction of our homes, hurricanes, torrential rains, rolling floods, droughts, wildfires, and rock avalanches, we have nowhere to ......live."
The faint sadness in Douzi's words seemed to have affected Jiuyue, making Jiuyue feel a little sad inexplicably: "Haven't your ancestors tried to reconcile with humans?"
Jiuyue believes that the nature of beasts is to defend their territory, and probably, there is nothing more sad and angry for them than the loss of their homeland, right?
"Reconciliation?" Douzi smiled bitterly, and his originally childlike and crisp voice was dyed with a bit of heaviness that shouldn't have appeared, "Humans have always been cunning, but most of the monsters are simple-minded, so they are not human opponents...... The ancestors, tired of fighting, also compromised and tried to reconcile with humanity in order to return everyone to their original pure life......"
"But, did the reconciliation fail?" Jiu Yue seemed to have vaguely guessed something.
Douzi's immature child's voice couldn't help but make his grievances look extremely aggrieved: "Human beings, they don't keep their promises at all, we have all backed down and paid a lot of price, but human beings, after getting the benefits we gave, still unilaterally tore up the reconciliation agreement...... That time...... It was also the worst defeat we had...... We are not defeated on the battlefield, but on trust in humanity......"
Jiuyue was silent and didn't speak again, although she was not a demon, and she couldn't really properly understand the demon's pain and its resentment towards humans, but ...... For this terrible world, she has a similar mood to Douzi.
"That time, the vitality of our demon clan was greatly damaged, and we suffered heavy losses, so we could only hide our bodies, hidden in the dense forest valleys in Youzhou, Moshang, and Qingchuan, and stored in the wilderness, and lived more cautiously. ”
"And after human beings have seized the land and materials, they still will never settle and stop, and their competition for what they have seized has also led to endless wars, bloodshed, killing, and tyrannical human beings...... How can we not hate, and what is wrong with us taking back the land that was rightfully ours?"
Jiuyue nodded approvingly and understood: "Yes, you are right." ”
As if he was afraid that Jiuyue would think too much, Douzi immediately pulled the corners of his mouth and showed a big smile: "Sister, I'm ...... I know you're different. ”
"I ?...... I'm no different, I'm one of the dirty, ugly, vile humans you call me. Jiuyue responded in a deep voice, but her thoughts gradually dispersed.
Born as a human being, Jiuyue doesn't feel ashamed, but she doesn't feel how noble it is, so lofty that she should be qualified to be above all things.
"No, my sister is just different from others!" Douzi was determined and firm in his opinion of himself.
Jiu Yue did not continue to entangle with Douzi on this issue, but continued to ask: "So, since your demon clan hates humans so much, why do you want to go and make a marriage contract with the ghost queen of that hidden capital?"
"Naturally...... It's because Ghost Ji is not a human being......" Douzi replied with some hesitation, looking very confused about the fact that Jiu Yue didn't know that Ghost Ji was not a human.
"It's not a human? Onihime is not a human...... Could it be that it's really a ghost?" Jiu Yue felt confused, and the fact that the ghost Ji was not a human being, and the fact that the child-like Douzi was going to talk about marriage with the girl was the same unacceptable.
Although the name of the ghost city in the hidden capital has the word 'ghost' inlaid in it, which sounds a little crazy, Jiuyue always thought that it was just because the place was a little weird, so he deliberately chose a scary name, but he never thought that it would be a person who was wandering in the ghost market......
"Of course not!" Douzi's reaction changed from confusion to unconcealed surprise: "The soul belongs to the yin, it is for the dead soul, how can it be combined with the yang life?"
"Yes?...... It's good if it's not a ghost......"
Jiuyue was slightly relieved when she got a clear answer from Douzi, in this world, she was not only afraid of monsters, but also of ghosts......
After thinking about it, Jiuyue once again tentatively asked towards Douzi: "...... Neither a human nor a ghost, is it ...... She's a youkai too?"
“...... Also—doesn't count!?" replied with a slurred voice, as if the little brain on his head was a little insufficient.
Hearing this, Jiu Yue knocked heavily on the wooden table with his fingers: "Then you can tell me directly, this ghost old man and ghost queen in this hidden capital, they are neither human, nor ghost, nor demon...... What is it?!" Jiuyue paused for a moment after finishing speaking, and then simply threw out all the questions in her heart: "...... What kind of ghost city is that so-called ghost city in the secluded capital?"
“...... Sister, you don't even know anything...... How dare you go there?" Douzi went from surprise to amazement.
And Douzi was amazed, his eyes lit up suddenly, and then he jumped and rejoiced, and came to a conclusion that made Jiuyue cry and laugh: "My sister who doesn't know anything, but I happened to know everything...... Doesn't this show even more that my sister is destined to be my sister!And Douzi is also destined to become my sister's demon!!"
The green tendons on Jiuyue's forehead are probably the same as Jiuyue's quick temper, and Jiuyue has to work very hard to press the impulse that is about to burst out......
After slipping the bean out of his arms, Jiuyue helplessly suggested to the bean: "...... Let's get down to business, shall we?"
