Chapter Seventy-Four: The Demon's Mourning
Tao Yao dressed as a sand sculpture and became a demon, but she was a human in her bones, so she never thought she was not a human, especially after becoming an adult with a demon pill, she forgot that she was a demon.
On the sheep intestine mountain, the owner of the pheasant mountain complained like a pyramid scheme, the way of heaven was unfair, and the demon clan was used as a dog. Tao Yao listened, but she just listened, and she couldn't empathize.
Later, she was coerced by the mountain lord, went to Kunlun Mountain to find death, and accidentally swallowed the demon pill, and was burned by the big demon phoenix girl day and night, and she couldn't bear much sympathy for the perverted demon clan.
But the wind gallop raised by Tao Mi, the moment before it was about to be killed, the only thing he was worried about was the owner who didn't take it seriously; There are also those bird demons who fell into Kunlun from mid-air, and they didn't forget to thank her when they were about to die; and the ghosts and demons who were chased by people and were dying, unwilling to wag their tails and beg for mercy until they died; and the phoenix girl who does not forget her original intention and clamores to kill her every day, is willing to become her nourishment for the possibility of the rise of a demon clan......
The most incredible thing is that since she became a member of the Qiye Continent, she has heard too many rumors about the evil of the demon race, but in fact, there is almost no evil of the demon race that she has really seen.
On the contrary, it is the evil of man, and she has seen a lot.
Tao Yao stretched out her hand, gently stroking the fox demon's declining little face like an old woman, and asked Lu Li beside her: "Senior Brother Lu, do you know what Mrs. Tao said before she died?" ”
"Huh?" Lu Li was at a loss.
"She said that everyone in the world said that demons are heinous, but they didn't know that some people became disgusting beings worse than demons in the never-ending cycle of hunting demons."
"It's not-" Lu Li wanted to argue, but looked at the fox demon covered in injuries, and the words of rebuttal were stuck in his throat, and he couldn't spit it out. Weak words can't break the cruel reality in the end.
At least Lu Li is still a person, and he is still willing to see the truth.
"Senior Brother Lu, I bother you to do me another favor, I want to be alone with the fox demon for a while."
Lu Li didn't move, he refused to say yes or no, and after holding back for a long time, he said, "Senior Sister Tao, no matter what, it's a demon." ”
"You get out too."
Lu Li's face turned black with anger at Tao Yao's words, he gritted his teeth, paused in the dark room for a long time, and after a hundred turns, he pushed the door and retreated.
Lu Li saw the truth, but he didn't know what kind of cruelty wrapped in mortals behind this reality!
However, after a breath, Lu Lifu, who had withdrawn, pushed the door in again, he held two isolation charms in his hand, pasted them on the mountain wall in the room, and then he said, "Senior sister continue." ”
The door was about to be closed, and Tao Yao shouted to Lu Li: "Senior Brother Lu, I'm sorry." ”
Lu Li hated twice and gently closed the door.
Tao Yao lost her temper, she knew that Lu Li did not harbor malice towards her, for Lu Li, the demon is evil is an absolute truth, and he reminded her kindly for her safety.
But Tao Yao is not a person, even if she still regards herself as a person, but in this life, she is not a person.
Shangxian covered up the possibility of her being spied on by others with a prohibition that others could not see, but even Shangxian also said that she had to practice hard, because there are no absolutes in everything.
If one day, called Lu Li, Kunlun, and the huge world know that she is a demon, and she is lying in the corner and being humiliated to the point of dying, will it become her?
For the first time, Tao Yao felt that her neck was tightly strangled.
She lowered her head and looked at the fox demon lying on the ground, her eyes were brighter, and her breath was getting weaker and weaker: "Hello, my name is Tao Yao, and I am a sand sculpture." ”
The fox demon was shocked, but she was so weak that she couldn't make too surprised expressions: "You are also a demon?" ”
"Hmm."
"No, you're not." The fox demon shook her head slightly, the deep folds on her face rippling from the shaking, "People won't allow demons to walk with them. ”
This is the reality of the Qiye Continent since a thousand years ago.
She once again recalled that when she first fell into this plane, the old turtle with her on her back had scolded mortals, and how many desolations were hidden in those scoldings that the human race could not read.
The fox demon slightly hooked the corners of his mouth: "Ren Xiu, I'm going to die, you don't have to bother to lie to me, if you want to peel my skin, just peel it, I know that the fox skin can be sold for a better price." ”
"You know?"
"yes, I know."
In one word, four words, there is no hatred, no unwillingness, only a calm statement of the facts.
"Actually, I know a lot of things." The smile on the corner of the fox demon's mouth added a hint of invisible pride, "I know that the fox demon clan is locked up here, and I also know that every fox demon will be fed a demon pill before they become adults."
Some people who are in poor health will die the next moment after eating the demon pill, and Renxiu will peel off their skins, make them into scarves, and sell them to the dignitaries and nobles in the city.
The rest of those who are in good health, who have eaten the demon pill and have not died and have become adults, will be locked in a dark room and become a furnace to help people cultivate.
When we can't even make the Ding Furnace, we will be plucked by someone when we still have a breath left, and the flesh and bones will be made into a pot of fox soup and fed to other spirit pets. ”
Tears unconsciously blurred Tao Yao's eyes, and a drop of the corner of her eye overflowed from the corner of her eye and dripped on the fox demon's face. The moment the tears fell on the flower demon's face and shattered, she smiled and asked in surprise: "Renxiu, are you crying?" ”
"Nope." Tao Yao raised her sleeves and wiped away her tears. She shouldn't cry, tears mean nothing to the cruel Peach family.
"Little fox demon, do you hate?"
"Huh?" The fox demon fell into a daze, and after a long time, she replied to Tao Yao, "I don't hate." ”
Don't hate? This is not the answer that Tao Yao expected to get, but this is the real answer given by the fox demon, no reluctance, no pretense, no deception.
But the more this happened, the more she couldn't understand.
"Why?"
The fox demon laughed again: "Because the demon is sinful, it should not exist in the world." ”
"Ridiculous-" Tao Yao was angry, she was angry, and she was so frightened by the fox demon in her arms that she shivered, Tao Yao hurriedly put down her anger, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to." ”
The lord of Youdu Mountain once coaxed a group of little demons to boil their blood in the way of pyramid schemes, and they were full of hearts and eyes to take revenge on the world, but her vulture mother said that the little demons actually understood everything, and the reason why they still went to the world was just to humbly seek a way to live for themselves.
But what is this scene in front of you?
The only value of existence is to become the fox demon of the peach family, and he actually does not hate the enemy who destroyed their life, but instead calmly says "no hate"?
How despicable and shameless are the Peach family?!
The fox demon raised his face in a panic and asked uncertainly, "Ren Xiu, what did you say?" ”
"Huh?"
"You're sorry?"
Momo bowed: "Well, I'm sorry. ”
After a long time, the fox demon's calm and mournful face was stained with a hint of surprise: "People will never and do not need to apologize to demons, only humble demons need to constantly say sorry to people." It turns out that you really aren't human. ”
"......" This is a sentence that makes Tao Yao cry and laugh a little, and it is also a sentence that writes the shameless face of the murderer.
A glimmer of light slowly rose from the fox demon's eyes, she raised her head with all her might, eagerly hooked the corner of Tao Yao's clothes, and asked crampedly and nervously, "Are you here to take me out of here?" ”
The voice of the fox demon is very small, and the small one may not be able to hear it if he is not careful.
But Tao Yao heard: "Hmm." ”
Tears instantly broke through the fox demon's dry eyes and flowed into her cheeks full of furrows, and the sobbing fox demon choked up, "Thank you...... Unfortunately, you arrived too late. ”
Something suddenly tore Tao Yao's heart, she covered her heart, and she couldn't curl up in pain.
She had been injured many times, and each time it was painful, sometimes even painful, but those pains could not be compared to the pain of this moment.
If you don't use any words to describe it, the pain in the past is in the skin cream, the pain is in the flesh and bones, the pain is in the internal organs, and the pain today is in the heart and soul.
The fox demon seemed to know that Tao Yao was in pain, she stretched out her fingers with her nails flying, and gently stroked the back of Tao Yao's smooth hand: "It's okay, big demon." ”
A thousand years ago, was it true that the demon clan committed a heinous crime, so that the gods and people conspired to exterminate the clan?
The little fox demon showed an obviously happy smile, she opened a pair of eyes that shone like stars, and looked at Tao Yao intently: "It's good to meet you before I die." ”
Tao Yao was speechless except for shaking her head.
"Big demon, the flowers on your head are so beautiful, are there many such beautiful flowers in the outside world?"
Tao Yao wears a peach blossom on her head, and she hates the peach blossom of the mountain, and the fairy has cast a spell on the peach blossom, as long as she doesn't pick it, the flower will always bloom and be undefeated.
Tao Yao plucked the peach blossom and inserted the peach blossom into the fox demon's hair.
The fox demon happily asked, "Is it good-looking?" ”
"Well, it's good."
The peach blossom inserted into the fox demon's hair began to decay rapidly, and the fox demon cautiously stretched out his hand, wanting to touch the tender and soft petals, and asked briskly: "Big demon, what kind of flower is this?" ”
Tao Yao hurriedly stretched out her hand, wanting to hold down the fox demon's hand, lest she touch the withering of her hand, but the fox demon sensed the withering of the flower first, and she slowly withdrew her hand.
The light smile on the fox demon's face, like a peach blossom, began to decay: "It turns out that human cultivation is right, we demon beasts are naturally dirty, and the beauty of the world has nothing to do with us, we should be born in the darkness, and we should die in the darkness." ”
"No...... No......" She tried to deny the fox demon, but for the first time, she found that words were so powerless to her that she couldn't deny it, but she had to do something.
"Little fox demon, I'll rescue you out now and take you to see the flowers."
The fox demon shook his head: "No need. ”
“……”
withered with the peach blossoms, withered with the fox demon's light smile, and the fox demon's life, the gray of death had covered her face, indicating that she was about to leave the world.
"If you are a capable demon, then take the fox demons who are still alive and take a look at the scenery outside, they will definitely be very happy."
Tao Yao nodded, and for the first time solemnly promised one thing: "Okay." ”
The fox demon's breath was even weaker, and Tao Yao hurriedly leaned over and asked the fox demon: "Little fox demon, what's your name?" ”
At least ask for her name and erect a tombstone for her to prove that she has been to the world.
"I don't have a name, and I don't need a name."
yes, why does she need a name? No one would call her name, so why did she need one?
The fox demon, whose consciousness collapsed, muttered in a low voice: "Sister big demon, I don't want to be plucked out of the pot......"
Tao Yao stretched out her hand and hugged the fox demon: "I'll take you out." ”
Either way, she'll take her out.
"Don't bother." The fox demon tried his best to squeeze out the last shred of a light smile, "If you can, please pinch a fire trick and burn me, okay?" ”
"I ......"
She won't.
Why wouldn't she ......
At this moment, the voice of the Great Demon Phoenix Maiden suddenly sounded in her heart: "Tao Yao, let the deity come." ”
"Huh?"
"Put your hands on her, don't think about anything, give your body to the deity for the time being."
Tao Yao immediately reached out and gently covered the fox demon with her palm, and then emptied herself. At this moment, she had no doubt that the Phoenix Girl would take the opportunity to occupy her body.
Suddenly, a cluster of flames burned from her fingertips, and the bright red fire quickly enveloped the fox demon.
In the fire, the fox demon who was burned nodded at her lightly with relief: "Thank you, I don't know if it's the sister of a human or a demon......"
