Chapter 40: The Deceased

"Miss Awan, I sympathize with your plight." I sighed. "I'm sure you'll have a hard time in the future."

"Hey. It's just hard to put into words. Awan shook her head, full of emotion. But what I can't bear the most is that Qingyuan wants to detain me and my subordinates without completely obvious truth, and it is understandable that I am being detained, but what is the reason for detaining my subordinates? What are they guilty of? ”

Thinking of those fishmen imprisoned in chains in prison, my heart throbbed, and I don't know how Awan would feel when she saw it. I have no right to ask what is right and what is wrong, but the destruction of life makes people have to re-examine the truth of these things.

I didn't dare to tell her about it, and at this time, I could only silently look out through the cracks in the bamboo.

The moon and stars are thin, the dusk fades, and the night is unveiled. I didn't expect this story to be so long and need her to tell it for so long.

"Senior Awan, I still have some doubts." Yu Ge asked tentatively, and after listening to Ah Wan's narration, maybe she was also resistant to some of her mother's practices, so she didn't expect Ah Wan to answer her. "Of course, if you don't want to answer, I can understand."

"Hey, hey. Don't talk like that, little girl. "Awan didn't linger as much as we thought." These past events have nothing to do with you, and I have hurt you before, so I also blame a lot of unrelated people. As I said before, as long as you ask, I still know everything. ”

"Senior...... I'm more puzzled, at that time, your Taoism disappeared for a short time, and you were injured again, how did you escape from Bird Island? Yu Ge asked. If you were able to escape, why were your men arrested? ”

A faint smile appeared on Awan's face. "If you can escape, you have to thank a benefactor, and you can be regarded as an old man."

"The deceased?"

"I haven't told you that when I came down to Bird Island with a group of men, there was a foreigner on the island besides us."

"And the foreigners?" That's something I never thought I would have.

"It's a human like you who doesn't have any way." Ah Wan told me that there was a bit of appreciation and longing between her eyebrows. "He doesn't know spells, but he has deep thoughts."

Another human.

It dawned on me. "Is that the person who once compiled the "Bird Island Chronicles" with the leader of the green mandarin ducks? It is to collect various ancient documents of the bird-man clan. ”

"So you know him." Ah Wan was also a little surprised. "I thought he wouldn't be remembered?"

"It's true that this person is rarely mentioned on the island, and I only knew about it by chance when my sister said that she had leaked her mouth." Yu Ge replied thoughtfully. "Actually, I also have a lot of doubts about this person? He helped us do such an important thing, why don't so many people know about him? ”

"Hahaha." Ah Wan suddenly laughed with an embarrassed face. "I'll have to ask your dear mother about this."

"Senior, you promised me to know everything, please explain this matter clearly." Yu Ge asked reluctantly.

"It's not that I don't want to tell you, little girl, I don't know anything about it. The only thing I know is that it seems that he and your mother are not just making books together, I have seen them play the piano together......"

“……”

"Your mother must love him very much, otherwise why would she say that I seduced her lover?" Ah Wan smiled helplessly. "Although the idea itself is absurd."

"Senior! Please tell me the truth. ”

Not only Yuge, but even my interest was vividly hooked to the extreme, although it was late at night, there was no sense of exhaustion.

I always thought that Yuge's mother would be very hostile to humans, how could I have thought that she once fell in love with a human.

But if you look back at it, you will find that although she is actually more bitter in her mouth, she is very tolerant of what she does, and she did not hesitate to detoxify Long Shao, which shows that her emotions towards humans are not as simple as she thought.

"Well, I'll tell you slowly, although you probably won't like it." Ah Wan stretched out her hand and picked up the bamboo tube again, but found that the 'pair in the cage' was empty, so she took the cup that I drank half of it and drank it all. "I'm sorry, I'm too lazy to mix anymore, but I don't feel interested in drinking anymore."

It wasn't until a faint bamboo leaf fragrance overflowed from her mouth that she cleared her throat and continued the topic of him.

"Although that person is a human being without Taoism, he is not ordinary at all. At that time, on the island, apart from the two things of bartending with exotic plants and having fun with Bi Fang, my favorite thing to do was to talk to him. I don't know exactly what he did in the human world, maybe he was a clerk or a teacher or something, but his thoughts are really rare in my life. ”

"It must be extraordinary to be admired by a person like Miss Awan. What kind of idea can make you so approve? ”

"Guess what he said? He said that he hopes that in this world, whether it is gods, monsters, or even those lonely ghosts, he hopes that all living beings can enjoy this beautiful world together, he hopes that all living beings are equal, and he hopes that in the future, when human beings talk about a ghost, they will feel accustomed to it, just a friend around them, without fear or rejection; He hopes that youkai can live in harmony with people, and everyone can run into each other and create a way of life that is suitable for all living beings. "Even when Awan was stating her experience just now, I didn't see her look so full of what she wanted to do now.

But just now this passage of the equality of all beings did wake me up like a thunderbolt, the human world has also said that all beings are equal, but that is only for human beings themselves, when human beings describe immortals, they will be unfathomable, all human beings can do is worship and sacrifice, when it comes to ghosts, they will scoff at them, all kinds of ugliness. This is not true equality at all, and this person's idea that all living beings are equal is truly great.

"His words deeply affected me, I have cultivated for tens of thousands of years, and I was here before I was a human being, but I have never heard anyone say such a thing......" Ah Wan said meaninglessly. So I really like to listen to his opinions, and I feel very comfortable listening to them. Maybe it's because of this that he gradually came to see me as a friend. ”

"His words are unusual, but I feel ...... It's a bit too idealistic. Senior, let's not mention what he said, I just want to know how he can help you escape from Bird Island if he has no Taoism? Although Ah Wan told many stories about the human, he still didn't say a word about escaping from Bird Island, which made Yu Ge's doubts not settled.

"Because he did something that no one could have imagined."

Awan shook her head with mixed tastes, it was the first time I had seen that deep remorse on her face tonight.

"Hey. I think he must have thought that I couldn't be the culprit of killing Bi Fang's seniors, so he did such an outrageous thing, and I really feel guilty that he hurt your mother because he saved me. ”
