This time, Hong Ze paused for a long time, so long that Mo Qingshuang thought that he would not answer again before he gently spit out two words: "Bai Ze." ”

Mo Qingshuang didn't hear clearly for a while, and subconsciously tilted her head, "Hmm? what?"

Hong Ze smiled bitterly, raised his voice and said again: "My body is Bai Ze." "This time it's much louder than the last time.

"What?!" Mo Qingshuang was really surprised from the bottom of his heart when he heard Hong Ze's words, Bai Ze, that is the symbol of Rui, and it is an auspicious beast that makes people turn evil into good fortune. Bai Ze can also understand the feelings of all things and know the appearance of all things in the world. It knows the names, shapes, and exorcism spells of all the ghosts in the world, but on the contrary, for ghosts, Bai Ze is a fierce beast, and seeing Bai Ze is equivalent to seeing another death of his own.

"What, as a ghost, are you scared?" said Hongze's tone with obvious disdain.

"I'm afraid?" Mo Qingshuang smiled and said, "Hongze, although you are an ancient divine beast, compared to the truth, my popularity in the current cultivation realm is definitely higher than yours. ”

"Oh, are you still some big man, Ghost King?" Hong Ze obviously felt that Mo Qingshuang was bragging because he didn't admit defeat, and his words were full of laughter.

Mo Qingshuang suddenly became embarrassed, her reputation was really not to mention. After thinking about it, Mo Qingshuang changed the topic and said, "Obviously you are Bai Ze, why did you name yourself Hong Ze?"

After hearing Mo Qingshuang's question, Hong Ze suddenly straightened up and raised his head and looked at Mo Qingshuang. Because he finally stood up straight, his hair drooped by habit, and finally he showed his true face.

Most of the demons' appearances are divided into two extremes, either they are surprisingly ugly, or they are so beautiful, Hong Ze obviously belongs to the latter type, but there is one thing about his appearance that Mo Qingshuang cares about, that is, his eyes are actually red, which is a little different from the legend of Bai Ze that she knows.

Seeing Mo Qingshuang staring at him in a daze, Hong Ze turned his face to the side, not letting Mo Qingshuang see his face, and said in a somewhat self-deprecating tone: "What's the matter?

Mo Qingshuang hurriedly shook his head and said, "That's not true, your appearance is not scary at all, but very amazing, those eyes are like glowing rubies, so beautiful that people can't take their eyes off." Mo Qingshuang's tone was very serious, in fact, she really felt that Hongze's eyes were very beautiful, without any flattery.

"Is it......" Hong Ze lowered his head again, if Mo Qingshuang was close, he would definitely find that his face was slightly red at this time, until the hair blocked his face tightly, Hong Ze said with a little sadness: "Bai Ze's eyes are as clear as ice and snow, and my eyes have turned red, which means that I am not qualified to be an auspicious beast, and even now I may bring misfortune to people." ”

Mo Qingshuang heard the sad tone in Hong Ze's words, and she was puzzled: "Could it be that your eyes have become red, and your heart has changed?"

Hongze wanted to say "how is it possible", but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed again, and said with some self-deprecation: "Maybe." ”

When Mo Qingshuang heard Hong Ze's answer, she frowned and said unhappily: "Why do you care so much about that kind of ethereal identity? Could it be that the meaning of your life is because you are Bai Ze?"

Hongze clenched his fists and did not speak.

Seeing that Hong Ze was silent, Mo Qingshuang's heart was literally burning, if she hadn't been able to get to Hong Ze now, otherwise she would have to punch him in the head and wake him up.

If you can't move your hands, then you can only move your mouth, Mo Qingshuang asked unceremoniously: "Then now that you are not Bai Ze, what should you do?"

"What else should I do? This altar has trapped me for so many years, and I would have gone out a long time ago if I could have gotten out. Hong Ze said helplessly.

"What if you could get out?" Mo Qingshuang asked directly without giving Hong Ze a chance to escape.

This time, Hong Ze was silent for a long time, until Mo Qingshuang was about to lose patience before he said: "I will go out, and when I go out, I will find a place where no one is and stay honestly." ”

Mo Qingshuang took a deep breath and kept telling himself in his heart to be calm and not impatient, "You were born as a human god, expelling all ghosts and bless them with safety, but have you ever thought that in the eyes of ghosts, you are a fierce beast, which will only bring disaster and misfortune." ”

Red Ze retorted, "That's also because those ghosts set foot in the area where humans live, and they were the ones who did evil first. ”

"Human territory? Mo Qingshuang said coldly: "I don't know what the life of human beings was like before, but for now, the entire continent has a human life trajectory, many animals are either killed by them, or forced to migrate, and even many animals are completely extinct because of humans, disappearing from the continent forever, animals are not ghosts nor demons, and there are even many animals that do not harm humans at all, for those animals, human beings are tantamount to terrifying ghosts." ”

Hongze: "......"

In the face of Hong Ze's silence, Mo Qingshuang continued to say seriously: "Count you are also an animal, right? Then have you ever thought about them from the perspective of animals, or have you ever thought about it, what you do is just a noble hat by humans, in fact, it is just a transaction, they worship you, and you have to do things for them if you take their offerings." ”

"That's not a deal, I've never thought of it that way. Hongze said sullenly.

"Then, what would you do if one day, a harmless rabbit made a wish with an offering, and its wish was to let humans leave the deep forest where it had lived for many years?" If you are on the side of the humans, then the poor rabbit will be killed by the humans, or even exterminated, but if you are on the side of the rabbits, the humans may go hungry, and even if they are not hungry, they will spit on you because you have done something against their will, reduce you to an evil god, or even classify you as an enemy, destroy your temple and expel you from the area where they live, what choice do you make?"

Hong Ze hesitated and said, "They won't destroy my temple for such a trivial matter." ”

"Oh, then you don't know them well. There are a lot of stupid and selfish people in the human race, and you have always followed their wishes, so you have never seen their dark side. ”

"I keep them safe, they won't do this to me. Hong Ze answered very definitely this time, and he didn't know if he was talking about it for Mo Qingshuang or for himself.

Mo Qingshuang glanced at Bai Ze lightly, "Do you know? ”

Hongze: "......"

"The ancient divine beasts, whether it is the dragon and phoenix, or the unicorn and the white tiger, have all disappeared, and they are forced to disappear forever, Bai Ze, your kindred has long ceased to walk in the world, because the human race has grown so strong that it does not need your protection, if you rashly expose your identity in front of the human race, what you are waiting for is not worship, but encirclement, just because your whole body is a treasure. Bai Ze, times have changed, and the world you were in is no longer the same as the one you were in. ”

"Call me Hongze. Hong Ze said in a very low voice, if it weren't for Mo Qingshuang listening carefully. I'm afraid I'll miss his words.

"Oh, that's right. Mo Qingshuang smiled and said, "You have also changed, and you are not the original Bai Ze." So, you can live for yourself. ”

"I ...... myself" Hongze shook his head and said: "I was born surrounded by human beings, protecting them and listening to their wishes was all I had in my previous life, and now you want me to be myself, I, I don't know what to do." ”

"Then you close your eyes and don't think about anything, what's the first thing that comes to mind?" Mo Qingshuang felt that she was about to become a master, or the kind of master who guided others.

Hong Ze closed his eyes as Mo Qingshuang said, everything returned to darkness, and his mind slowly emptied, and then emptied......

Time passed slowly, Mo Qingshuang felt that Hongze had been thinking about it for about half an hour, should he be asleep? Staring at Hongze, who was still motionless, Mo Qingshuang couldn't help but guess wildly in his heart.

At this time, Hongze was a little troubled in his heart, because in his past life, he had seen many people, but none of them remained in his heart, he had done many things, but those things were made by others to do, and now when he recalled it, he suddenly found that he had never remembered people, nor had he encountered things of interest, and his heart was so blank that he didn't put anything in it.

"What's wrong?" Mo Qingshuang saw Hongze move, but he didn't speak, and asked curiously.

"I ......" Hong Ze was a little overwhelmed, he looked up at Mo Qingshuang, and his tone had a panic that he didn't even know, "I can't think of it." ”

Mo Qingshuang looked at Hong Ze in a difficult way, but at this time he still blocked his face with his black hair, so he couldn't see anything, "You don't need to think, you just need to empty your mind, don't think about anything, just let your thoughts wander in your heart at will, even if you fall asleep, it doesn't matter, maybe your answer will appear in your dreams." ”

"I didn't have a dream. Hongze replied honestly.

Mo Qingshuang gritted her teeth, she really wanted to give the altar another kick, she said with a smile: "Maybe it's a dream this time? ”

Hongze nodded embarrassedly, closed his eyes again, relaxed his body, and let his thoughts gradually empty.

"You don't look scary at all, but you look stunning, and your eyes are like glowing rubies. ”

Hong Ze opened his eyes suddenly, he was a little frightened, what appeared in his mind just now was the scene when Mo Qingshuang said that his eyes were beautiful, the scene was very clear, and even the corners of Mo Qingshuang's slightly raised mouth were still fresh in his memory.
