no one knows better than me

The torrential rain beat against the cornices of the roof, forming a torrential flow down the tiles.In the stillness of silence, Mei Hualan suddenly closed her eyes, and a shadow in a fine dress flashed in the sea of ​​consciousness.

Before she could speak, the outer gate was suddenly knocked open with a "bang", and the several figures who were guarding the guard outside rushed back trembling in a hurry.

"Something happened! Something happened!!" Panting, Mei Si'e was the first to enter the door, blurting out a frightened tone, "Senior Zhuang, Mr. Duanzhu, outside—!"

"It's changed outside!" Mei Siji's voice cracked.

Ji Wuduan seemed to have a ball of hot sparks falling from his head, and jumped back like flying: "Go out and have a look, there are green vines everywhere outside, it seems that something exploded..."

"—Boom!!—Boom! ∵ v. play.

The words he hadn't finished speaking were suddenly drowned out by the shrill chimes of the bell, which was so anxious that it was as dense as a drumbeat—this was the bell of the Mei family's announcement that there was a visitor.

Without saying a word, Zhuang Qingliu wiped away the aura in mid-air, turned around calmly and rushed out, and the rest of the people immediately raised their legs and rushed out.

The devastating torrential rain outside didn't stop for a moment, but the land as far as the eye could see was filled with greenery and green waves.The surrounding mountains and fields are covered with emerald green sparkling waves like waves, and the cold and thick forest fog can almost trap people in the air.

Zhuang Huang, who was dressed in lotus root white robes with golden silk patterns, stood tall in the mid-air outside the barrier, quietly holding a floral paper umbrella in his hand, looking down at them, and shouted warmly: "Zhu'er, Heng'er. "

Zhuang Qingliu and Zhu Heng stepped out of the barrier without hesitation, their eyes reflected those Bi Tao who were still swaying wildly, they turned their heads together and looked deeply at her.

I don't know why, but it's probably because I don't have to put on an act anymore and really relax, so Zhuang Huang's face looks much nicer than before pretending to be secretive. He looked at Zhuang Qingliu up and down for a while, and his tone became very gentle towards her. Said: "Before you woke up in the blue lake, I wanted to talk to you, but I never had the chance, and I didn't have time."

"..."

Probably like Zhu Heng, the enthusiasm for his mother and master in his heart has been exhausted by countless calculations over the years, so Zhuang Qingliu didn't have any special expression. He just looked up at the heavy rain like sea water pouring down, and said: Said: "At that time, you knew that I woke up in the lake, and you were the one who deliberately made Pei Xuan frame me?"

After she finished speaking, she couldn't see Zhuang Huang's expression clearly in the muddy rainstorm that almost became a rain curtain, Pei Xuan in the corner behind suddenly lowered her head in embarrassment and shame.

The boundless and torrential rainwater hit the moist and surging mountains, and continued to make thunderous noises. Zhuang Huang was not angry. The matter, Master apologizes to you. Heng'er is the same, I don't care about you all these years, I actually feel bad."

"..." Pei Yi was the first to be laughed out of anger, stepped forward resolutely, and asked awe-inspiringly, "The matter has come to this point, what do you mean by talking about it?" He waved his sword hand , pointing all at once, "Are you going to destroy the world now?!"

"A mere human race, dare to call it the world?" Zhuang Huang suddenly cast his gaze on the top of his head.

Pei Yi was slightly dumbfounded by her words, but still said seriously: "Then what do you mean, you want to exterminate our human race and let other races take its place?"

"The human race is your human race." Zhuang Huang took a deep look at him, "Do you want me to think for you from your point of view?"

Pei Yi lost his voice completely. This is already a confrontation between different races. It is useless to say anything under the premise that they cannot be defeated.

Dressed in white, Lan Song raised his eyes and said calmly, "The reproduction and replacement of all things is an innate law. Isn't it good to let nature take its course?"

Zhuang Huang raised his hand and grabbed him from the air: "What about you, let nature take its course now and die, okay? No one else has to save you?"

Lan Song didn't know if his throat was grabbed, and he didn't make another sound. At this moment, Zhuang Qingliu turned his head and opened his hands, and also pulled him back from the air.Zhuang Huang didn't insist, he let go of his hand naturally, holding an umbrella and said slowly: "Let it take its course, do everything according to its nature, and then wait for it to change with peace of mind, not doing nothing."

It seemed as if she had finished speaking, and the atmosphere froze again.

Standing on the top of the fairy cloud above ten thousand people for a long time, maybe the people of the fairy sect have forgotten how to bow down for a short time, so among the crowd, only the junior Mei Siyu has the best mouth, looking at Zhuang Huang vaguely The lonely figure quickly came up to coax her to ease the atmosphere and said, "But senior, no matter what happens, this junior dares to feel that it will not be a disaster to parents and family - so what we break through in the fairy gate should also be handled by us in the fairy world." Take responsibility and solve it, at least not to affect innocent people and ordinary people, let them go before you talk about it."

Zhuang Huang raised his eyebrows slightly, and said to him: "Human beings just came out of the monkeys in the wild mountains. When you have been eroding the entire world for a long time, you never cared whether the creatures you eliminated were innocent or not."

Mei Siyu pursed her lips, paused, and still said in a gentle and polite voice: "Senior... this is the instinct of living beings to reproduce and develop, so what is the crime?"

"What's the crime?" Zhuang Huang laughed, but looked into his eyes seriously, "You have the instinct to reproduce and develop, don't we have the instinct to survive?"

Mei Siyu was stuck: "This, how should I put it..."

"You don't need to search for some words that you have learned from childhood." Zhuang Huang said calmly, "It's just a very simple and universal truth. If you weigh everything, you will be more willing to tolerate it."

Think about whether you can do better than the other party in this situation.

The miasma rising from the mountains is getting thicker and thicker, and the air-conditioning close to the umbrella surface seems to be extraordinarily sensible, and the money is flowing, and Zhuang Huang's smooth and pleasant voice is also gently spreading like water ripples: "Be kind to others, and you will be happy." You have to take your own life."

Zhuang Qingliu listened quietly for a while, then raised her eyes and looked into the distance without showing any expression on her face: "If that's the case, what are you talking about?"

"Of course I have something to talk to you about," Zhuang Huang said holding an umbrella, "to be precise, it's with you."

Zhuang Qingliu turned his eyes back, and nodded with no emotion in his voice: "All ears."

"If you stop meddling in the affairs outside the barrier from now on, then those around you, Ji Wuduan, Pei Yi Lansong, including Pei Xuan, can all survive, and you will never have to be wary again in the future, and I will never touch you again." Zhuang Huang said to her without beating around the bush, "Even if you have anyone you want to keep, they can survive, it's all up to you."

Zhuang Qingliu suddenly looked at her: "How did you survive?"

Zhuang Huang said the most absurd request in the calmest tone: "One condition - no longer proliferate, and they will survive on their own until they die of illness and death, as long as they can live."

"!!" Everyone's eyes were staring at the mid-air in surprise and disbelief.

Zhuang Qingliu also raised his eyebrows slightly, as if a little surprised, raised his head and raised his hand to fiddle with the flowing water waves and swimming fish inside the umbrella, and asked very calmly: "Then what if I want to keep everyone behind?" ?”

Zhuang Huang just chuckled, and said to her in a helpless and doting tone: "Don't be naughty."

"Leave everyone, as long as they don't reproduce, why not?" Zhuang Qingliu tapped the wooden handle of the umbrella lightly with his fingertips, his eyelashes were slightly closed, as if he was really thinking about it, and even Mei Hualan's eyes fell into it. In her eyes, she looked deeply for a moment.

"My foolish disciples, people have always been despicable and cunning, and they are very good at bearing humiliation. How can we guarantee that they will not hide their positions if they stay too much?" Zhuang Huang shook his head, and stretched out his hand to catch a few drops of rain. Good thing."

"How should I put it, it's not uncommon to cut the weeds and remove the roots, but the roots have been removed before the grass has been cut. This is really unprecedented." Zhuang Qingliu laughed meaningfully, and immediately turned to Zhuang Huang unmoved After thinking about it on his face, he proposed again, "Let's put it this way, the despicable people are only some people, which is also normal-then what about the good people I left behind, how about not getting rid of them?"

Zhu Heng suddenly turned his head and stared at her: "Zhuang Zhu?!"

Zhuang Qingliu glanced at her calmly, but Zhuang Huang still shook her head and rejected her: "I don't need to say such an obvious contradiction—you are a kind person, can you guarantee that the offspring you give birth to will be kind?"

With such a mention, what else can everyone say? Everyone knows how the leaders of several major sects that were carefully selected 500 years ago have multiplied to this day.

Zhuang Qingliu knew what she meant, so he sighed lightly, raised his hand and touched his eyebrows, as if he wanted to fight for it again, so he pointed to Pei Yi next to him and said: "But the contradictions are relative, these Humans are not completely despicable and wicked.”

"So what." Zhuang Huang laughed, lowered his head and gently touched a green vine that suddenly swayed from the ground and wrapped around his wrist softly, and said, "To pick a flower, only one person is needed. It is not necessary for everyone to agree to pick it.”

Zhuang Qingliu raised his eyebrows as if he didn't understand.

Zhuang Huang hooked his little finger, touched the light yellow flower wrapped around his wrist, and said: "This flower grows on the side of the road, even if the first person passes by to water it, the second person passes by to loosen the soil, and the second person passes by to loosen the soil. Three people passed by and fertilized it... but so what, when the tenth figure came over, he folded it off with one hand."

As he spoke, he pinched lightly with his fingertips, and the florets that were fresh and swaying just now withered away, turning into a terrifying black mist and dissipating.

Zhuang Qingliu lowered his head and rubbed the center of his brows: "Should those nine people deserve to die?"

Zhuang Huang asked back: "Does this flower deserve to die?"

There are a hundred people in this world, and tens of thousands of flowers are broken off, and the hands of the human race are stained with blood?

In the end, even if there are nine people who are cherished, this one hand will destroy everything.The most important thing is that you can't prevent this hand from being produced, and you can't distinguish and predict it, so from a certain angle, you can only destroy it all.

"It's not my paranoia, it's the equality between life and life. All things have animism, so why shouldn't flowers and plants deserve a stable place to stand?" Zhuang Huang gently closed his eyes in the heavy rain, and said, "I first At the time, I just wanted to get rid of all the evildoers in this world, so that good will be rewarded with good, and evil will be rewarded with evil, so that all living beings can have a place to live... But later found that there are so many evildoers, so ambitious There are so many people here, so many that you can't hide no matter what."

"If people in this world could be kinder, I wouldn't insist on eradicating them."

"It's actually nothing now. No matter how civilized the war is, it is impossible not to affect innocent people."

She was silent for a long time in the torrential rain, as if she remembered many things in the past, the expression on her face changed from calm to surging, from surging to chaotic, from chaotic to mixed with various emotions, and finally restrained again , opened his eyes, and looked at Zhuang Qingliu silently for a long time: "So I have already given them a chance."

"Many times."

Zhuang Huang's eyes were slightly shifted under the umbrella, and he pointed to the world of mortals below: "Whether it was 600 years ago or 20 years ago, no matter who they were, they all chose this way."

"I chose it myself."

Zhuang Qingliu pressed his fingertips on the umbrella bone: "In short, do you have to get rid of people from this world?"

"People are pretentious, greedy, and unscrupulous. The same person has killed hundreds, thousands, or even tens of millions of creatures in this world, far surpassing himself." Zhuang Huang said, "From the perspective of the entire world, it would not be very difficult without them." Is it a good deal?"

It is not a race that has never stood together, but there are races, and many races in this world will indeed perish.

Zhuang Qingliu thought for a long time, knocked on the handle of the umbrella and said, "...so ruthless."

"Those who are not ruthless can't achieve great things; those who often feel guilty can't achieve great things." Zhuang Huang said, "There are some things that cannot be done by human beings, and some things can be done completely, and some things require huge and monstrous efforts. The price or even the crime, but it can also solve the real problem-so how to do it in this situation is up to you, whether I want to propose it or not, choose?"

"..."

At this moment when water could be squeezed out of the air, Zhuang Qingliu didn't say anything, but suddenly turned his head inexplicably and stared at Mei Hualan.

"It's rare for Mei Hualan to raise her thick eyelashes without receiving what she meant: "...? "

Zhuang Qingliu hooked the umbrella angrily, put it away, and said, "What are you looking for? I found you who are so taciturn, and when you can't talk to others, no one can help you out!"

Plum Blossom Lane: "..."
