Wicked documents

Xiran put his hands on Xiaobai's shoulders, forcing the latter to turn his head and look at him, his attitude was extremely serious and serious, "Xiaobai, just tell me the truth, what made you come to this day? This step?"

The hand on the shoulder can almost be called slender and exquisite from the outside, and only Xiaobai can feel the huge power contained in it, like Mount Tai pressing down on the top, Xiaobai clearly wants to escape at this time It's a pity he couldn't escape at all.

"Xiaobai, you said before that you just hope that your people can have space to live and thrive in this land for a long time. You may not believe me when I say this, but in fact this is exactly my hope. I also hope that the monsters can be passed on from generation to generation. I always thought that our goals are the same."

The emperor's openness came suddenly, but not abruptly.

Of course, if Xiran's worries were heard by other courtiers, they might think that the emperor is crazy, and they would worry about such baseless things.But Xiaobai is different, one is him, and another high priest should be added, the two of them are the minority who understand part of the truth.

Xiaobai was not surprised, but he couldn't fully accept it, or in other words, he couldn't completely believe it—it wasn't that Xi Ran's character was too bad to be trusted, but that the two of them had very different positions, and no matter how hard they tried, there was still an indelible gap between them. diaphragm.

"Actually, it's different." Xiaobai said shyly, even with a smile, he was so bitter that he could squeeze out the water. "Even if there is no difference in the original intention, the continuation between races is still different after all. Compared with monsters, we... are too weak."

"So this is why you want to expand your strength at all costs?" Xi Ran's attitude didn't seem very clear, but the wrinkle between his brows seemed to indicate that he probably didn't agree so much.

Xiaobai didn't deny it.But he also said, "Even if all the Bai people are soldiers, so what? Monster beasts can still clean us up, but it takes a little effort. Besides, no matter how powerful I am, I will never be able to make those who are weak Old people and young children also take up weapons, and it is just my fantasy that all the people are soldiers."

"Strength and weakness are not as simple as they appear on the surface." Xi Ran's voice was slow, and he himself should be convinced of this.

Today's humans can't compete with monsters, but what about ten years from now?A hundred years later?millennium?Perhaps it won't be too long at all, and the bias of the "Way of Heaven" is only beginning to emerge at this time. If the "Way of Heaven" suddenly intensifies, human beings will have the greatest basis for victory.At that time, it is really hard to tell who will win the game.

It's just that Xi Ran doesn't want to say more about these hidden worries.

Xiaobai didn't know what Xiran was thinking, but the palm he was pressing on his shoulder suddenly lost his strength, and rested on the same place.

Perhaps this is how the advance and retreat compensate for each other. Just now, some Xiaobai wanted to run away, but this time, he stretched out his hand out of nowhere and lightly pressed it on the back of Xiran's hand.

Xi Ran glanced at his hands from the corner of his eye, but didn't make any gestures.Even though he knew that persuasion was useless, he still couldn't help talking nonsense after all. "Xiaobai, I actually understand that the living environment of the Bai people is still very difficult. Although Fenggou Mountain is well managed by you, other places are still the same. But this matter can't be rushed, do you understand?"

One was uncontrollable, Xiaobai nodded.But he was not completely softened by the other party's attitude. As long as he thought about it from an objective standpoint, this was also true.

At least on the surface, it seems that this conversation is still going on, Xi Ran relaxes a little. "I don't dare to say that all my decisions are correct, but at least we have a good start, haven't we? Taking Fenggou Mountain as an example, the self-government method can be gradually promoted. By that time, there will be no room for the Bai people to survive. It will become wider and wider. Isn’t such a prospect exactly what you are pursuing so hard?”

With consecutive questions, Xi Ran seems to restrain the majesty of all emperors, and is patient and persuasive.Not to mention that Xiaobai is still a body of flesh and blood, even if it is a stubborn stone, I'm afraid he will be influenced.

It's not that Xiaobai isn't unmoved.On the contrary, Xiran's words seemed to condense into a hand, grasping his heart neither softly nor hard, with an indescribable soreness.But Xiaobai still maintained his calm, standing on the cusp of the storm just like him, he had to keep calm all the time.To achieve this, the first thing you need is a heart as rigid as iron, and you must treat others with the same indifference as yourself.

And there are some things that Xiaobai has thought about countless times.

This was probably beyond Xiran's expectation. The last time he personally visited Fenggou Mountain to present awards, Xiran had talked a little about the future between humans and monsters, including the existence of the laws of heaven, during the night talk. Mentioned so far.Xiran's original intention was just to get a promise from Xiaobai, but he never expected that every sentence of that night would take root in Xiaobai's heart, and he would ponder over it word by word for countless times.

When he rescued this boy from the sacrificial ceremony, Xi Ran must have never expected that this boy would have the ability to surpass that of a general—that is a handsome talent who can see the whole situation, and it can even be said to be the talent of an emperor!

However, limited by his birth, this talent needs an extremely important opportunity to be revealed.But the night talk at Fenghook Mountain was just such an opportunity, and suddenly a huge door opened in front of Xiao Bai.

Inside the door, Xiaobai is indeed just a humble human being struggling to survive. He doesn't even dare to imagine how to make his people's lives better. Just being able to survive still makes him feel burdened and burnt out.

Outside the door, there is a brand new world built by vigorous ambitions. If humans and monsters are destined to be unable to coexist, Xiaobai can't help but start thinking about what to do to make his side the final winner.Yes, he doesn't want to be attached to a powerful master, and he doesn't want humans to become vassals of monsters. If there is even the slightest possibility, why can't he and his clan become the master of the world?

I still remember that Ye Xiran once asked, if one day human beings stand at the top of this world, can he let the monsters survive.

When faced with this question at that time, Xiaobai did not give a clear answer, not because he didn't want to, but because he couldn't.This question is too difficult, and he is only qualified to answer it on the day when he reaches the peak.As for today, Xiao Bai still has no answer.

Obviously his heart has softened into a ball, but Xiaobai still asked, "Xiran, what day will it take for the 'time' you mentioned?"

Xi Ran was taken aback by the question.Although Xiaobai didn't intentionally make things difficult and chose a difficult problem, it's just that he really didn't think about it.The lifespan of monsters is too long, and the blood of the royal family makes him have a more tenacious vitality than ordinary monsters. Time is the least valuable thing to Xi Ran, so it's no wonder he often ignores it.

Xiao Bai took a deep breath, and changed the same question into a sharper way, "At that time, can I still see it?"

Before he could get out of the stupefaction, Xiran felt a sudden pain in his heart. It seemed that he hadn't really realized until now...Xiaobai is just an ordinary human being. Not only will he change from a weak child to a heroic figure in a blink A thriving young man will also become an octogenarian in the blink of an eye.

The positions of the two were completely reversed in an instant, just now Xiaobai had nothing to say, but now it was Xiran's turn to be speechless.Xiaobai didn't think he was chasing after the victory, but some words had been suppressed in his heart for too long, and finally reached the point where he couldn't bear it anymore, "You actually understand very well, I won't live until then, and you insisted on me making a promise to you that day. , In fact, that thing is not important, because I can't fulfill my promise at all. So Xiran, you have to prepare additionally."

Xi Ran frowned.Also prepared?He himself does not know how.

Xiaobai seemed to be smiling.It's only been a few days, the terrible wind and sand in the sandcastle have already carved sharp lines on his face, and his lips seem to be much thinner than Xi Ran's impression.When such lips evoked a sneer, they were like sharp blades that could sting the eyes.

"It's Weixi." A simple name was pronounced by Xiaobai with a feeling of gnashing of teeth.

But Xiaobai didn't know the change on his face. Although he deliberately put on an expressionless face, there was a streak of crimson on the corners of his eyes—this was the second time Xiran saw it with his own eyes. This guy has "become a demon of fear".

There are similar examples among monsters. Monsters are born with terrifying power, and it is not difficult for a few runaway guys to appear in the long history.It is generally believed that this is because the turbulent mind cannot control the boiling blood and will embark on the path of self-destruction.

However, Xiaobai is not a monster. If there is anything special about him, it is that Xi Ran personally taught him some skills that only monsters can learn.The last time I saw the crimson eyes of Xiaobai in Fenghook Mountain, Xi Ran wondered if there was something wrong with my own teaching - after all, there was no similar precedent in the past, maybe human physique is not suitable for learning skills like spells.For this reason, Xiran once blamed herself.

Seeing this scene again now, Xi Ran's heart trembled, and a strong look of worry naturally appeared in his eyes.

It's a pity that Xiaobai has a different explanation for this look. "Are you worried about Weixi? Are you worried that I will harm her? There is no need for this. A prisoner like me can't go anywhere except this dead and abandoned fortress. The heir to the family."

If Xiaobai hadn't mentioned it himself, it would be impossible for Xiran to think of Weixi at this juncture, and the so-called worry is even more groundless.He was about to deny—

But Xiaobai has already misunderstood himself, "The Void Clan has no other candidates for the patriarch. No matter how reluctant the old man Meishu is, he can only recognize the inheritance right of the only granddaughter. But I think, even if Weixi has other candidates Brothers and sisters, you will also intervene in the establishment of the patriarch, and you must ensure Weixi's status, because she is your future imperial concubine."

Xi Ran didn't speak, he was seriously thinking about whether he would do this or not?Perhaps, he has unknowingly interfered in the affairs of the Void Clan. In any case, he personally saved Weixi's life, and Weixi's ability to live safely to this day is also due to his naming .

"So, from the very beginning, I was your chosen one." Even though Xiaobai's conclusion was very subjective, after a series of "reasoning" just now, it seems to be true.What he didn't know was that the crimson at the end of his eyes was expanding, and even his eyeballs were covered with bloodshot eyes, like a scary red spider web.

Xiaobai can't see it himself, but Xiran sees every detail very clearly, so Xiran can only express his retreat in silence, thinking that as long as he doesn't continue talking, Xiaobai can finally calm down by himself.

Becoming a demon has always been the most deadly change for monsters, and it is far more terrifying to be killed, because this is the first case in Xiaobai, Xi Ran is not sure whether becoming a demon has the same serious impact on humans, but He still didn't dare to take it lightly.

Judging from an objective point of view, Xiaobai is really a very calm and forbearing person. His ability to build an autonomous region is the best example, not to mention that he once took quite extreme actions——in the Fenggoushan counterinsurgency. In order to obtain indisputable military merits for himself, he even cut off Li Da's head with his own hands, and took this thing as evidence to the court meeting.

At this moment, even though Xiao Bai is full of anger, if he can think about it calmly, he will find that all the unhappiness is self-inflicted.

So Xiran believes that he can calm down, he just needs to give him some time.

This may be God, no one can keep calm and restrained all the time for a lifetime, there are always some things or some people that will easily stir up the most fragile and sensitive nerves.But when it comes to Xiaobai, things will turn against each other. He doesn't remember when he started to have unreasonable thoughts about the emperor, but when he realized it, he had already firmly tied all his thoughts to Xi Ran alone. body—

Any turmoil is full of severe pain.

Not long after being silent, Xiran already regretted her negativity.

The two sat side by side on the ground, not far apart, so any slight changes in their bodies would be reflected in each other's eyes without omission.Xi Ran watched helplessly as the red marks at the end of Xiaobai's eyes continued to spread and extend, spider webs of blood completely covered his eyes, froze for a moment, the red began to shrink rapidly, and finally condensed into a point the size of a pinprick, piercing his pupils among.

At first glance, Xiaobai's expression has returned to normal, as if there is no major problem.

But is this really the case?No!On the contrary, it got worse.The trace of red is still there, but it has become smaller and darker, so red that it is black, and it is hidden in the black pupils, and it is missed when you glance at it.But if you look carefully, you can still see some signs, like a ray of bloody reflection.

"I can not be reconciled."

The words that Xiao Bai uttered lightly were too erratic, strictly speaking, Xi Ran didn't hear them clearly, but this did not prevent him from understanding his mood at the moment, that kind of strong unwillingness was deeply embedded in Xiao Bai's eyebrows The fundus reflected from his whole body.
