Crown of Silence

Chapter 141 The gentle moonlight

"Bai Xi, do you know? I have witnessed many miracles in my life.

I have seen saints degenerate into devils, and I have also seen devils obtain salvation in heaven. This is all simple, because love and hate are sudden things.

But when none of these things can change a person, is there anything else in the world that can hinder him?

Is it the starry sky above his head? Or the morality in his heart? Or is it the most unforgivable death for human beings?

I have only seen one such monster, and it already made me despair of all my efforts. He was the second person to make me doubt myself.

Fortunately, I was mentally prepared for this when I found out his identity. "

He looked at Bai Xi and sighed softly: "Haven't you personally experienced his abnormality?

When he was hunted by the entire city, his tolerance was ridiculed, and his kindness was trampled on, he never changed any of his ideas, nor gave up any of the principles he believed in.

Even when he was taking revenge on those garbage, he still adhered to the principles in his heart and just returned the original fear he had suffered... He didn't even think that there was a simpler way in the world.

——Just get rid of all the garbage there! "

"That only shows that he is a good person!"

Hearing Bai Xi's rebuttal, Hermes was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter, as if he had heard a perfect joke, so he was overjoyed.

"Good guy? Don't be ridiculous, Bai Xi, he was born to be a black musician!

If he is a good guy, why can he learn something like "Black Friday"? Its level of madness is rare even in dark music.

The music has a soul, Bai Xi. The spirituality contained in it will select the most suitable master for itself.

It chose Ye Qingxuan, which proves that he has a dark instinct that even he cannot detect!

Haven't you seen it? The terrifying aura when he 'spreads fear', the smooth-flowing skills and arrangements... It's like art!

For him, killing is simply an easy thing. "

He stared at Bai Xi and said word by word:

"The reason why he didn't kill them was not because he was kind or kind, he just simply... looked down on them.

He just felt that these things were not worth changing. When he found that the world was contrary to his ideas, he did not change himself, but wanted to change the world into what he knew...

He is such a monster! "

Bai Xi remained silent, speechless.

In the long silence, Hermes picked up the tea cup and drank the red wine in the cup gracefully and calmly.

"I'm sorry, I said such unpleasant words, just pretend you haven't heard them and forget them."

He gently advised: "After you go back, study hard, stop messing around with him, and stay in your own sanctuary peacefully.

The lower city is now a playground for monsters, not a place for you to get angry as a child. If you are unwilling to let go, sooner or later you will die because of him and die in pain..."

"Hermes!"

A girl's voice interrupted him.

Bai Xi stared at him, her pupils were dark, like vast darkness. There were thunderclouds shaking in the darkness, with a fury that would burn people to ashes.

As if giving a final warning, she said word by word:

"——You can shut up."

"Okay, okay."

Hermes smiled helplessly and raised his hands in surrender.

Bai Xi silently withdrew his gaze, continued to read the music in his hand, and returned to his original state.

It's like nothing happened.

-

During this long afternoon, she occasionally raised her head to ask some questions she encountered while thinking, and Hermes answered her in detail, just like an extremely conscientious teacher, explaining the essence of the music score in simple words.

Until finally, when the sun was about to set in the sky, in the last remaining light, Bai Xi stuffed the piece of music that Hermes had given him into his backpack. When his fingers touched something cold, he hesitated.

She looked up and asked, "You are a very powerful alchemist, right?"

"More than awesome."

Hermes pointed at himself: "You should say: There is no one before and there will be no one after."

Bai Xi placed something on the table:

"Help me change this."

On the table, a military crossbow with its serial number removed reflected the afterglow of the setting sun. The silent weapon was extremely quiet at the moment.

Hermes was stunned for a moment, then looked at Bai Xi, his subtle eyes seemed to understand something, and he smiled pitifully:

"Okay, my monster princess."

He picked up the hand crossbow and walked to his workshop.

Where Bai Xi couldn't see it, his eyes turned pitiful and tolerant, like looking at a stubborn child trying to fish out the moon from a well.

——But even if you get your hands dirty, how long can you play this game with him?

——

Although in the end, under Charles's offensive of crying, making trouble, and hanging himself, he finally escaped the terrible punishment of wearing women's clothing, but Ye Qingxuan has already obtained a lot of blackmail in his hands through this thing, and he will definitely be with him in the future. Brother bitch will also be able to communicate more smoothly.

After all, in order not to wear women's clothes, Xia Er has promised to be a sparring partner anytime and anywhere, and promised to only take the beating and not fight back, so as to help Ye Qingxuan improve his proficiency in the music score.

With a guy like the slutty senior brother who can interpret the music score by instinct at any time to give guidance, I believe I can quickly make up for the last experience gap.

At that time, after digesting the remaining runes, he will be able to recreate the terrible record of entering the rhythm level within a month.

Of course, compared to the pervert like Xia Er who claimed to have taken a month but actually only took two days, this record is nothing, but at least it sounds beautiful!

Maybe I can cheat the budget from those bastards on the school committee again!

Late at night, in the basement, Charles, who was beaten unilaterally, squatted in the corner in ragged clothes and cried. Ye Qingxuan, who had basically mastered "Bolero", pushed the door open with a refreshed spirit. Looking back at Charles' miserable appearance, he couldn't help but laugh three times.

You have come to this day too!

He hummed the tune and walked towards the bedroom upstairs with ease and joy. There were still a lot of runes waiting for him to resonate.

But when he passed the living room, he turned around and noticed the girl sitting alone on the sofa.

As if she had finally come back from playing outside, she curled up on the sofa after taking a bath, holding her chin and looking at the night outside the door, thinking about something intently.

In the night, the moonlight fell on the steps, leaving a piece of silver, like her long hair.

It was so quiet that it didn't seem like her.

Ye Qingxuan was stunned for a moment and asked in a low voice: "Bai Xi?"

Bai Xi finally came back to her senses, looked back at Ye Qingxuan for a long time, then lowered her head, a little depressed:

"Cousin, you haven't slept yet."

"What's wrong with you?"

Ye Qingxuan reached out and touched her forehead: "Fever?"

Bai Xi slapped his hand away in annoyance and rolled her eyes at him: "You are sick."

"Then what's wrong with you? You are so serious and deep, I think I recognized the wrong person."

"I'm thinking."

Bai Xi said in annoyance: "Thinking."

"..."

Ye Qingxuan was speechless for a while. At this time, he didn't know what expression to show. He just wanted to say: Cousin, you just need to play around without any heart, and things like "thinking" are really not suitable for you.

But if he said it, he would definitely be beaten up by Bai Xi, and he couldn't fight back.

Forget it...

"Ahem, what are you thinking about?" Ye Qingxuan tried hard to look like a caring brother, grinning and coming closer: "Why don't you tell me, cousin, and I'll give you some advice?"

"...Cousin, your smile is disgusting." Bai Xi moved back a little with a look of disgust.

The corners of Ye Qingxuan's mouth twitched, and he didn't know what to say.

Bai Xi sat beside him, holding her chin and continued to be in a daze, falling into silence.

In the silence, there was only the sound of summer insects chirping outside the window. The moonlight came in through the window and shone on the girl's hair, and it was impossible to tell where the moonlight was and where her hair was.

He stared silently for a long time and looked away.

"Cousin."

"Hmm?"

"Being chased by someone is actually something worth getting angry about, right?" Bai Xi suddenly asked softly.

"Yes."

"So, are you angry too?"

Ye Qingxuan thought about it and nodded: "Yes, very angry."

"But..." Bai Xi hesitated for a moment and muttered in a low voice: "Why didn't you kill those guys in the cemetery and in Ganlu City?"

"..."

Ye Qingxuan was stunned and a little confused: "Are you entangled in this?"

"Yes, no?" Bai Xi's eyes became dangerous.

"Okay, okay, of course!" Ye Qingxuan raised his hand to beg for mercy, a little helpless: "I can't control what you think."

"Then why don't you kill those guys?"

Bai Xi came up and blinked at him, as if to see through all his disguises and lies.

The pair of eyes were so close, and the clear eyes were full of concentration. Ye Qingxuan couldn't help but lean back a little, a little nervous.

Bai Xi pinched her chin and looked at him, whispering: "Do you have any unspeakable difficulties? Or some shadows from childhood? Or some oaths? Or the influence of others?"

"..."

Ye Qingxuan was speechless for a while, and shook his head helplessly: "How can it be so complicated? You think too much."

He reached out and rubbed her hair vigorously. Seeing her angry look, he laughed: "You just want to ask me this?"

"Yeah." Bai Xi moved her eyes away and muttered in a low voice: "Anyway, you can choose not to say it, just pretend that I didn't ask."

"There is nothing unspeakable about this kind of thing."

Ye Qingxuan lay on the sofa, staring at the moonlight outside the window, and his expression became gentle: "Because I promised my mother to be a good person."

"Oh..."

Bai Xi was stunned for a long time, and finally nodded as if she understood.

Although she didn't understand it very well, she didn't know why, but she suddenly became happy and didn't worry about anything.

Perhaps it was too tiring to curl up, so she lay on the sofa, stretched out her body, stepped on the side of the sofa with her feet, and opened and closed her small toes, as if she was concentrating on playing a game.

Her hair was scattered on the boy's body, like moonlight, covering Ye Qingxuan.

"Your mother... what kind of person is she?"

Bai Xi suddenly asked, quietly raised her eyes and looked at the boy's profile.

Ye Qingxuan was silent for a moment and said softly: "He is a very kind and gentle person, but he has no choice."

"Yeah, just like my mother."

Bai Xi nodded in agreement: "What about your father?"

"A bastard."

Hearing Ye Qingxuan's unhesitating evaluation, Bai Xi also laughed: "Well, it's the same as my dad."

"Yes, we are all the same, so what's the difference between who is different from who?"

Ye Qingxuan murmured softly and stood up slowly: "Go to bed quickly, it's getting late."

He stepped onto the stairs and walked towards his bedroom, but Bai Xi's voice came from behind.

"cousin!"

"Huh?" He turned around.

Bai Xi sat cross-legged on the sofa, looked up at him, and asked seriously: "You will take me with you when you go out to play in the future, right?"

Ye Qingxuan thought for a while and smiled.

"Well, I will definitely take you with me."

The girl became happy and elated. She jumped up from the sofa, grabbed her slippers, and trotted back to the room.

In the renewed silence, Ye Qingxuan glanced at the moonlight outside the window.

The moonlight is gentle.
