As more and more words were "spoken", the black fox demon became more and more able to express itself fluently.

It seems that in the process, the human part of it has gradually taken over.

It lay down, its massive body leaning against the wall. Qi Wanli and Bai Qiyu sat on the steps on the side, listening to its story.

"Those happy days, after a while. I don't have a concept of time, I just know that the days go by day by day. I can't remember her name, of course, I don't need to know, I just have to scream, and she will know, I'm calling her. ”

"But the day I was afraid of came. She began to think of something, although it was not complete, but she often woke up in her sleep, burst into tears, and told me how scared she was, and each time, I used the power of life to soothe her and coax her to sleep again, but the more and more times she did, and the memories she remembered in her dreams became more and more complete, and it gradually became useless to soothe her with divine power. ”

"She started telling me stories about her dreams, about the temple of life, about her parents, about her master, about her in the hospital. Of course, more than that, it's the death of her parents, the pain she suffers when she finds out that she has been deceived, the helplessness when she kills the landlord, the warmth when she falls in love with the catcher, and the relief when she jumps off a cliff. ”

"She didn't know why I wanted to save her, she didn't know why I was so nice to her, she only saw me as a very special fox, she didn't know who I really was, and I couldn't tell her. As she slowly reminisced about the past, I began to subconsciously avoid the part that belonged to the human being, and I knew that with such a body, I could not become a lover with her, and I could only accompany her as a fox. ”

"Finally, one day, she suddenly told me that she could not hide in a cave in the depths of the ocean forever, and that she had to go back to the earth, to the human world, to be judged by her. ”

"Actually, I know that she doesn't care about the trial at all. She just couldn't bear the pain anymore and wanted to find an excuse to end her life. ”

"But, I don't allow it, the purpose of my existence is to let her live, how can I watch her die?"

Speaking of this, the black fox demon's voice became extremely low.

Of course, it couldn't stop the woman whose name she hadn't remembered until now. How could a man be stopped if he was determined to leave? It always had to hunt for food, always to drive away the occasional monster that smelled it, and finally one day, when it returned to its lair and habitually called out to the woman, no one answered.

Half of the clear soup fish on the dinner table was eaten, and there was still half a bowl of rice, and when she was eating alone in silence, she made up her mind and left directly.

"It took me three hours to find her. ”

Tears flowed from the black fox demon's eyes again, and a mournful whimper came out of its mouth, unable to "speak" any more.

Qi Wanli's heart moved, remembering Tang Hao's speculation, his heart seemed to be pressed on a big stone, he sighed and asked, "It's those monsters, right?"

The black fox demon didn't answer, but cried even more bitterly, and even the black king, who had always been happy, was infected by its emotions and became a little sad, curled up in the crook of Bai Qiyu's arm, and his tail was beating up and down.

Bai Qiyu couldn't bear to ask any more, she pulled Qi Wanli's clothes, and said to the black fox demon: "You should know that this is her own choice." For yours, this life is full of pain and sorrow, and there is no longer any meaning to live, and it may not be a good thing to be able to get rid of it earlier. ”

"I know, I know......" The Black Fox Demon whimpered in response, "but I still can't accept the fact that she's gone." ”

Bai Qiyu glanced at Qi Wanli as if asking for help.

He knew that Bai Qiyu had no better way to solve the black fox demon's emotional problems, and he had dealt with Bai Qiyu's inner demon, so she would naturally think that she had the ability to do so.

"Do you think about it now, what is your name?" Qi Wanli changed the subject and asked softly.

The black fox demon was still sad and painful, but it still tilted its head slightly, facing Qi Wanli, and replied: "In my soul, it belongs to the human part, and my name is 'Zhang Mo', but now I am not a human at all, but the 'demon' in your mouth, a fox demon." So, I named myself Hu Mo. ”

"Fox Mo. Qi Wanli called out its name and asked, "Have you ever thought about what you are going to do next?"

"I don't know. ”

Hu Mo replied: "After her death, I killed all the monsters and buried her mutilated body in the depths of the sea. After that, I wanted to go away, but I couldn't bear to live together for a long time. ”

"I still go back every day like I used to, and I fall asleep every day by the little folding bed, hoping to wake up one day and see her smile again. ”

"That encounter with the monster attracted a lot of people, and they began to look for me and hunt me down. Although I am now a demon, I still have the consciousness of human beings, and a part of my body used to be a soldier who guarded Yu Hai, a fast catcher, and among those who came to chase and kill me, there were many faces that I knew well, and I didn't want them to lose my life because of me, so I just injured them. ”

"However, among them, there is a very strong man who can manipulate the currents and can follow me through the fish, and although I know that I am very strong, I am no match for him at all. Strangely, while he had the power to catch me, he never really shot at me, and let me run away every time, which made me very strange. ”

Qi Wanli knew that it was talking about Gong Changfeng.

Hu Mo continued: "Although that powerful person has never really dealt with me, and has always caused me some trouble and injured me, I have also begun to be afraid. Recently, I've been injured more and more by humans, and the part of consciousness that belongs to the beast is often dominant, which makes me often involuntarily attack humans, which is not what I want. So, I'm going to leave here for a few days. ”

"A day or two ago, I had already destroyed all the things she had left in her lair under the sea, but I didn't expect to be found today...... I remember you, you came with that powerful man, but I could feel that you were not hostile to me at the time. ”

"Your arrival has also made me understand that I can't stay any longer. Although I still can't bear to keep the last trace of her scent, she is no longer in this world after all, and I should leave. ”

"With her passing, the part that once belonged to 'Zhang Mo' is no longer willing to remain, if it weren't for meeting you today, maybe, I will become a pure beast demon in the near future. ”

Qi Wanli's eyes flashed.

He could feel that there was an indelible despair and empty loneliness in Hu Mo's mood. If it is left alone, there are only two endings, either the part of its body that belongs to the human will be gradually erased, become a pure beast demon, start to be a disaster, and finally be besieged, or it will end its life before the part of consciousness that belongs to the human is gone.

Even if you don't consider Bai Qiyu's plan to recruit the same kind of demon clan, such an ending is too unfair for it.

He glanced at Bai Qiyu again, read the thick unbearability in her eyes, and knew that she also felt Hu Mo's emotions.

If there was a way, he would definitely find a way to persuade Hu Mo to survive, but Qi Wanli asked himself if he had any ability to convince a soul that had long since died, so he could only sigh silently. He gently squeezed Bai Qiyu's hand, indicating that he didn't have a good solution.

Bai Qiyu glanced at him, suddenly laughed, turned to the fox demon, and asked a question.

"Hu Mo, have you ever thought about finding her name?"

Hu Mo was stunned, his big head raised slightly, and his eyes flashed with a strange light.

With a comforting smile, Bai Qiyu said: "Her life is so rough and difficult, but she is also so beautiful and kind. Such a woman, but not many people in the world remember her, even her name has sunk in the years, don't you want to be the one who can remember her name and live with her memory?"

"People?" Hu Mo shook his head: "I'm not human anymore." ”

Bai Qiyu pointed at himself and said, "Look at me, what is like a demon?"

Hu Mo blinked, as if he had suddenly understood something at this time.

Qi Wanli opened his mouth and said: "You are very lucky, you are cultivating the secret method of the Life Dependent, although it is very rough, but by mistake, it seems that you also have the strength of the peak of the fifth order. Then, as long as you follow us, we can soon teach you how to transform into a human. ”

"Can I, become, human?" Fox Mo stood up, a fox face full of shock and confusion.

Qi Wanli smiled: "Of course you can." As long as you are willing to learn, with your special talent, you can learn it quickly. ”

Hu Mo was silent.

It wandered two steps in the small courtyard, raised its head, and looked at the dense and rolling galaxy in the sky.

"You told me that you can't see the moon or stars at the bottom of the sea, and you like to see the stars, so I caught many starfish for you and pasted them all over the top of the cave, and you were happy that day, but they weren't real stars. ”

"Perhaps, you left the lair under the sea that day, not only to die, but also to see the stars again. ”

"The last thing you look at is beautiful. ”

Hu Mo let out a soft whistle and said, "I want to know your name." ”
