Chapter 22: Loving and Being Loved

Dong Scorpion began to reminisce about the past.

It was at Disneyland in Florida, Country M.

Located at the southernmost tip of the east coast of country M, Florida is a prominent peninsula and the second longest state in country M with a coastline. And Dong Scorpion has been wanting to travel to Florida for many years and take his lover to Disney.

It was when Wilvan had cheated to death and Isabella had finally agreed to her marriage.

At that time, as the adopted son of the Gominik family, he temporarily took over the family, but he knew very well that he was not popular in the family at all, and he could not command any of the people below. As a Chinese, living in a white society is very difficult, not that you can speak English to fit in, and even your own thinking has to be completely changed. But Dong Scorpion remembers his parents' admonition since he was a child, even if he lives in country M, he is also a member of country Z (of course, he now knows that he still has a quarter of country R blood).

On that day, Dong Scorpion and Isabella played late at Disney. Originally, that night, he hoped that when he returned to the hotel, he could do some two-person sports with Isabella, but ......

"Skobin." Isabella always uses her English name to address Dong Scorpion, "If you take charge of the Gominic family, I hope you can wipe out all the demon messengers and not leave any of them." ”

"What?"

Under the beautiful fairy tale castle, Dong Scorpion wanted to borrow this beautiful atmosphere to kiss Isabella, but she said this creepy word.

Unlike Wilwin, even if there was a priest in the first place, he didn't want to kill all the demon messengers, and he didn't leave any of them.

At the end of the day, those people are also poor people, and they don't know that the price of exams is to sell themselves to demons. Exam after exam, you have to be hunted down by evil spirits.

In the end, he was just standing in the shoes of the adopted son of the Gominik family, assisting Vilvin in hunting the Demon Emissary.

"I want you to inherit Verwin's will, so ...... I think his spirit in heaven ......"

"Why do you have to kill the Demon Emissary?"

It was one of the very few times that Dong Scorpion asked Isabella this question.

These are the words handed down from our ancestors. The messenger of the devil must die," Isabella said with great firmness: "For this is what I was born for, and even if I die, I will honor the will of God and slay all the demons that blaspheme me without leaving one behind." Since they have chosen the camp of demons, they can only be redeemed by dying. ”

……

"Is that why you want to kill all the candidates?"

Dong Scorpion only felt that his worldview had collapsed.

In fact, before Dong Scorpion became a candidate, his mentality towards candidates was very contradictory. Those people were all living people, and they had to go through this kind of examination in order to chase eternal life, and he didn't think it should be a reason for them to be killed. However, after a series of riotous operations by Wilwin, he developed a strong rebellious mentality, and would rather stand on the side of the demon messenger and be the enemy of Wilwin.

For Dong Scorpion, love and hate will be extreme, and his feelings have never been a gray middle ground.

Because he hated Vilvin, he became the demon messenger that Vilvin hated and feared the most.

Because he hated Isabella for breaking his promise, he was willing to do everything to protect Meng Qindong, who kept his promise.

The more he marched towards immortality as a candidate, the better he was to Meng Qindong, and the more he took spiritual revenge on Verwin, who had always defied him and even sent his uncle to prison with revenge, and Isabella who reneged on her original promise.

He deliberately uses the opposite extreme method to repay the love and hatred of others, or his own love and hatred of others. This kind of character is destined to produce huge social barriers, and it is easy for a person to fall into the devil and become a demon if he is not careful. In the real society, people are more in pursuit of moderation, and love and hate often serve the pros and cons rather than right and wrong.

Now, both Vilvin and Isabella are dead. The only reason for him to become a demonic messenger is to gain eternal life.

He glanced at the doll in his hand, and Yunyu's words reminded him of an important matter. For the ultimate exam, the number of places is limited. This also means that in the near future, he may also compete with Gao Ying.

He's a seed...... Examinee?

This also means that as long as he can survive to the ultimate exam, he will have a higher probability of becoming a demon host and gaining immortal life.

At this moment, Dong Scorpion had a lot of thoughts in his mind.

For Isabella, he has no value or meaning. But that alone is enough, even if Wilwin sends his uncle to prison, even if he sacrifices his time reward to save Wilwin, he is nothing to her after all. Vilvin and she can become a demon messenger in order to survive, and he is an unforgivable sin to become a demon messenger, which are completely two standards.

What was in his mind at the moment when he wanted to be a candidate? Do you want to get immortal life, or do you hope that you can defeat Verwin, who will still be a young man in his prime when he becomes an old man.

In fact...... He didn't crave immortal life to such an extent, after all...... The cost is too great, and the possibility of dying early is even higher.

All the way up to ...... It was only when he killed Vilvin and Isabella with his own hands that he felt a great emptiness. His hatred could no longer be unleashed, so much so that he almost became a real demon under the guidance of his demons.

"Dong, Dong Scorpion, what are you thinking?" Meng Qindong looked at Dong Scorpion's appearance and asked, "Have you thought of anything?" ”

Dong Scorpion looked at Meng Qindong, and he suddenly understood.

He never really did himself.

All this time, he did not really desire eternal life.

All he wants is to be loved.

This matter was far more important to him than eternal life.

It was precisely because of his desire to be loved that he did not take the road of total blackening. But while longing to be loved, he always loves himself more than others.

Life is really ...... It's so contradictory.

Suddenly, he launched a "private chat" with Meng Qindong.

That's right, this is a kind of private chat in the brain that only he and Meng Qindong can communicate with each other.

"If you can survive this exam...... Qin Dong, I'll take you to the Disney theme park in Florida. ”

Meng Qindong thought that he had something very important to say, but he didn't expect it to be like this?

Look back carefully......

Dong Scorpion found that he had never loved others more than himself.

But...... If you love someone, do you have to love them more than yourself?

Is true love only through comparison? Is love something that can be quantified?

Love can also love someone as much as you love yourself!

And now, he finally understands what the original sin of being a candidate is. But he couldn't regret it.

He has always loved himself more than others. So even if he becomes a demon host, he won't mind, as long as he can survive.

He has gone too far on this road.

He couldn't go back.

So......

He just had to move on.

Immediately after, he picked up the doll of Gao Ying that he was holding in his hand.

"So, Yunyu, the Demon Seed Host, will it have any advantages?"

Yunyu nodded: "There will definitely be advantages." But the lodged Demon Primordial will definitely not interfere with the exam. ”

"Even if this seed candidate is killed by other candidates, there will be no revenge?"

"No, it won't. Being killed means that you are not qualified to be a host. ”

At this time, looking at the high-shadow doll in front of him, Dong Scorpion was struggling in his heart.

Gao Ying gradually felt that something was wrong, what was Dong Scorpion doing looking at himself like this?

Dong Scorpion was thinking about a question.

Does he really want Gao Ying to live forever?

Now that Gao Ying has become a doll, Dong Scorpion wants to kill him, and there are at least a hundred ways.

It is impossible for Dong Scorpion to go back. Ahead of his path, there is either death or immortality as a demon host.

"Qin Dong, can you love me as you love yourself?"

Meng Qindong's words suddenly appeared in his mind.

She was stunned, and asked what was this for?

"I want to work with you to win the final exam spot and get eternal life. I want to be able to love you as I love myself. ”

"What's wrong with you? Dong ......"

"You don't need to sacrifice anything of yours for me, and I won't sacrifice myself for you. But at least without sacrificing ourselves, can we trust each other and support each other to the end? ”

Meng Qindong was stunned for a few seconds, and then replied in his mind.

"I will!"

Dong Scorpion nodded.

Whether others believe it or not, at least, he did.

He no longer hesitated and grabbed the hand of the doll Gao Ying......

Clenched tighter.

He wanted to be something completely different from Wilwin.

The demonic messenger he did whatever it took to drive him out was not a damned life!

They don't need death to be saved!

Just like himself!
