Chapter 146: Her Life Is Mine
Zhong Lingxin stared at the half-human, half-snake girl expressionlessly, looked at it for a long time, and then stretched her voice "oh", and then said thoughtfully: "It turns out that you have known each other for a long time." ”
Gao Ya stuffed her mouth with food again at this time, and said vaguely: "Yes, otherwise how could I risk my life to save her, this is thanks to you, Zhong Lingxin, she owes you a big favor now." ”
Speaking of this, Gao Ya couldn't help but smack her lips slightly, with a hint of imperceptible playfulness in her eyes, and said with a big grin: "Now she has also formed a cause and effect with you, or a life-saving grace, which is really unexpected!" I really want to see her upset now, and she can't do what she does with you! ”
"However, it's also because this idiot changed form without permission and wasted my energy in vain. It also caused the two of us to almost be sucked dry of our spiritual power by her, and our lives were over. When she wakes up, I'm going to make her pay me a lot of food. ”
Gao Ya puffed out his face angrily and said angrily as he took a bite of the biscuit.
Zhong Lingxin yawned lazily, and the tail note with a light smile rose faintly, but his tone was unusually quiet, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.
"I don't care about cause and effect, since I saved her, her life is mine! After that, she honestly followed behind me, made me cows and horses, brought tea and water, and repaid my kindness. After all, I'm not a bad guy who doesn't ask for anything in return, and I would trade at a loss. Not only did it cost me so many blood crystals, but it also made me experience a heart demon tribulation. If it weren't for my great fortune and blessing in disguise, I'm afraid I would have to be planted in that illusion. ”
Ren Mingyu scratched the back of his head, his worried eyes fell on the tail of the snake with flickering scales, and he said in his heart:
"Duplicity, you are still as soft-hearted as ever."
Zhong Ling's eyes swept at Ren Mingyu and Gao Ya with inexplicable meaning, and finally fixed on the half-human, half-snake girl, noncommittal, and her tone was light but hit the nail on the head: "Then what is her ability?" And her shocking snake tail, can it be changed back in the future? ”
Ren Mingyu laughed dryly twice, and winked at Zhong Ling's heart, he had a thousand words in his heart, but he only said one sentence, "She is also one of the reincarnated twelve holy guardian saints, the sixth snake saint." ”
Gao Ya also felt a cool gaze sweeping up and down, and suddenly her whole body was shocked, and she smiled at Zhong Lingxin flatteringly, and said from the goodness: "Her natural divine power is the most special existence among our twelve, her eyes can observe the luck of living beings, and even predict the future." ”
She seemed to have thought of something, suddenly paused, looked at Zhong Lingxin's eyes with deep meaning, and when she spoke again, even her tone was a little secretive.
"However, we must not believe too much in her natural powers, the so-called foreknowledge is sometimes like a curse, if the future is already doomed, all efforts will be in vain, and carrying a written destiny is too heavy for all of us. Therefore, it is best not to use this ability unless it is absolutely necessary. ”
Ren Mingyu nodded approvingly, looking at the snake tail, a haze flashed quickly in his eyes.
He and Gao Ya quickly exchanged a look, stiffly hooked the corners of his mouth, and said cautiously:
"Her tail is likely to be a while and a half, and it should be said that she won't be able to turn back into her legs for a long time."
Zhong Lingxin's hands with her fingers crossed on her knees tightened slightly, and she subconsciously squinted her eyes slightly, looking at the girl's gaze like ice and snow in winter, without a trace of temperature.
After a long silence, she sighed deeply, smiled relievedly, and said word by word with a hint of sharpness in her tone:
"In this life, I don't want to cower anymore and live looking ahead.
The reason why the weak become weak is that they are constantly patient and retreating, and the strong seize every opportunity to fight to become stronger.
The weak begging will not be exchanged for a handout from the strong. I'm going to be strong, stronger than anyone else in this world.
I want to walk with my head held high until the end of this world,"
If she hadn't spent so much blood crystals, hadn't experienced the Heart Demon Tribulation, and hadn't been known to Ren Mingyu about those cruel truths, she would definitely have ruthlessly left this snake-headed alien in the safe zone.
In the dark, there seemed to be an invisible thread pulling her, tightly entangled her with these people, so that their destinies were intertwined.
Good and evil, black and white, are always opposites. She's been making choices at forks in the road.
She has also been confused, not knowing whether the path under her feet is right or wrong.
However, if it doesn't go to the end, no one knows the answer, and even God can't decide, because the choice is in her own hands, and she has to live as she wants in the next few days.
Thinking like this, Zhong Lingxin couldn't help but feel suddenly brighter, and a shallow smile bloomed at the corner of his mouth, like a ray of sunshine, warm and warm.
The invisible pressure that pressed on her seemed to have become a little easier, and the heavy haze in her heart was instantly swept away.
Ren Mingyu also seemed to be infected by Zhong Lingxin's emotions, a bright smile rose at the corner of his mouth, and there seemed to be something more in his eyes looking at her, but then he returned to his previous appearance, and there was nothing else on his face except a warm smile.
A certain emotion flashed in Gao Ya's eyes, and soon disappeared, like a short-lived meteor, she looked at Zhong Lingxin without saying anything, and hesitated for a while before she made up her mind and moved her mouth.
"Actually, you don't have to take her away, it's fine to stay here. The human body and the snake tail are a vision in this small world after all. What's more, now that monsters are raging, if these mortals treat pearls as fish eyes and can't tell that the spirit snake is not a monster, trouble will definitely follow. ”
When Ren Mingyu heard her words, the smile on his face suddenly froze, his eyes stayed on the girl's snake tail for a long time, his delicate eyebrows were tightly frowned, and the condensed Sichuan characters were much deeper than ever.
He lowered his eyes, hiding the chill of panic, as if talking to himself, and whispered:
"Will you hide her forever from the light of day? I don't believe that by doing this, I will be able to protect her? If someone knew about her anomaly, the kind of situation you mentioned could still be possible. Isn't it?
Instead of hiding it and making people in the outside world panic because they don't understand, it's better to tell the world that she is like this, not a monster, and she won't hurt others.
She's just an ordinary person with a special appearance. I'm sure they'll understand, and then they'll accept it. ”
Gao Ya snorted disdainfully, word by word, slowly and clearly:
"You know, before you came here, what did those people you believed call me?
Monster ......"
"Just because of my peculiar curly hair and the ability to use it, I need to keep eating, otherwise I will lose weight and dry up at a speed that is visible to the naked eye. Those ignorant and stupid mortals, just call me a monster! ”
Elegant eyes were red, his teeth were clenched, and the blood vessels in his temples were bulging.
Her fingers hanging at her side clenched, and there was a slight choking in her voice.
"Ren Mingyu, this is not a wilderness of mountains and seas, and we are no longer the Twelve Holy Guardian Saints who are high above, and the phoenix that has landed is not as good as a chicken.
We are now mortal, and if we want to live, we have to survive.
Because of ignorance, these stupid mortals develop prejudices. Its energy is beyond your imagination, leaving them blind and deaf. No matter how much you explain, it will be in vain, and they will only remain ignorant and stubborn.
Towering peaks are often obscured by clouds, not because clouds want to block them, but because peaks often think they have the ability to break through the clouds, so they rush into the clouds and fog desperately.
We will be overwhelmed by prejudice all the time, not because prejudice is going to overwhelm us, but because there are people like you who think they have the ability to break prejudice, so they rush into prejudice desperately until their heads are bleeding and dying. ”
Gao Ya seemed to recall some bad memories, and a deep sadness flowed between his eyebrows.
She sniffed, and after a pause, she said angrily:
"The mortals of this small world will only think that the spirit snake is a monster and an alien, not a human, regardless of whether she has harmed others or not.
No matter what you say, any word is powerless and white in the face of powerful prejudices.
Therefore, if it is really for her good, hide her snake tail so that the world does not see her difference. ”
Ren Mingyu's face was gray and red, he bit his lip tightly, as if he was doing a fierce ideological struggle, and a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on the tip of his nose.
His eyes were like the sea water at low tide, darkening inch by inch, and there was a trace of pain in his eyes, and he couldn't spit out a word for a long time, and finally only muffled out.
The atmosphere around them solidified like frost.
From beginning to end, the two of them argued about their own stubbornness, and Zhong Lingxin never spoke.
She looked at the girl who must have been regarded as an alien by the world, and for a moment she was in a trance, as if she had overlapped with the man who was called the demon god in her previous life and had been wearing a mask.
Those cold eyes were covered with a layer of gloomy gray at some point, like a silent storm brewing.
"Why live so sadly? What do irrelevant people think of you, and what does it matter to you?
Prejudice is a very stubborn thing, and we can't change it at all. The world has long been distorted and deformed, try to be a strong person, to conquer those prejudices you care about, there is no need to feel sorry for yourself and hide in the corner.
If someone gives you a knife, you give him ten thousand dollars back. As long as you are alive, they will not dare to show a trace of prejudice in front of you. ”
