Wang Xiaoming of Lucifer

Lucifer didn't rush him either, but just grilled meat for Wang Xiaoming silently.

Wang Xiaoming, who was scalded by the heat from his hand, looked at the meat in the pottery bowl and asked his own question: "Say, should I help Bai Mian?"

"You want to help him?" Lucifer didn't know why Wang Xiaoming suddenly had such an idea. He seemed to hate Bai Mian before.

"I just think he is quite pitiful." Wang Xiaoming, who had almost sorted out his thoughts at this time, said slowly, "I think he is like the girl from our side who was trafficked into the mountains. , I can’t escape, I can’t die, I can only lie there resigned to my fate, and use it as a reproductive machine for people I don’t know.”

"En." Lucifer snorted casually, and put another piece of meat into Wang Xiaoming's pottery bowl, "Talk while eating."

"But..." Wang Xiaoming, who was fighting between heaven and man in his head, obediently took the meat and stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it twice, and then swallowed it, "But I don't know if I should help him."

"En?" Lucifer continued to respond casually, waiting for Wang Xiaoming to continue.

"You don't have much contact with him, maybe you don't know him well, let me tell you." Then, under Lucifer's feeding, Wang Xiaoming told Lucifer all about his few contacts with Baimian.

"Do you think I should help him?" After speaking, Wang Xiaoming finally asked this question again.

In the past, Wang Xiaoming didn't have to think about this kind of problem at all. In the era of the big Internet, those who need help will naturally be pushed in front of Wang Xiaoming, and he just needs to help.

Even if he occasionally encounters a dilemma, there will be various people expressing their opinions on this matter. Wang Xiaoming can also rely on those comments and analyzes to judge whether he should help this person—although most At that time, Wang Xiaoming simply stood on the side with strong public opinion.

And here, the only person who provided Wang Xiaoming with his own thoughts was Lucifer, so he naturally asked for Lucifer's opinion.

But Lucifer started to lose his mind when Wang Xiaoming asked him for the first time. He remembered, a long time ago, when he first thought that he could participate in the Heavenly Dao Examination, what Michael said to him: "You It’s not ready yet.” Of course, every time Lucifer made this request afterwards, Michael always answered like this.

As for what is not ready?Michael never once answered Lucifer directly, but said repeatedly: "One day you will understand."

Lucifer felt that today was probably the 'one day'?He has traveled through so many book worlds, and tried his best to adapt himself to the rules of each world and integrate into each world, but he never actually had the idea of ​​helping anyone.Because in Lucifer's view, the fate of everyone in the story has been determined long ago, and there is no need for him to waste time doing such things.

But Wang Xiaoming is different. Although he failed to integrate himself into this world from the habit, he really sees everyone in his eyes and in his heart. That's why he has this desire to help others. idea.

It's like reading a sad novel. Some people cry because of the fate of the people in the play when they read it, but when the book is closed, he will leave all the plots in the book behind and continue his life; People are obsessed with it, read it repeatedly, and finally write a fanfic by themselves in order to give a good ending to their favorite characters.

"You are persuading me not to help him." Lucifer obviously belonged to the former, "You told me so much to tell me that Bai Mian did it all on his own accord?"

"No!" Wang Xiaoming, who obviously belonged to the latter group, immediately shook his head, "I'm telling you this to let you know more about Bai Mian so that you can make an objective judgment."

"Then do you think your description is objective?"

Wang Xiaoming originally wanted to nod, but at the last moment he chose to shake his head: "Not objective, because I hate him. You are right, I do think he will become what he is now, and he made it himself." Although Wang Xiaoming didn't want to Admitting this, "He had to be willing to work hard at the beginning, so why was he humiliated by Leopard in public?"

Later, Lucifer also told Wang Xiaoming about what happened at the confirmation ceremony of the subordinate beast. Leopard Li obviously didn't like Bai Mian. He is so pathetic."

Bai Mian's loveless expression seen during the day has been deeply imprinted in Wang Xiaoming's mind, and he can't get rid of it.Wang Xiaoming knew that it was the guilt of seeing the weak but unwilling to help.

"Do you still remember why we came to the book world?" Lucifer asked nonsense.

"Training for the assessment of the way of heaven."

"Then what do you think Heaven is?"

"I used to think that the way of heaven is the rule of the world." Wang Xiaoming said uncertainly, "Now, isn't it an intelligent creature?"

"Well, it is an intelligent creature, but the way of heaven is also the rule of the world. It doesn't matter whether this rule has feelings or preferences."

"Because his preferences will also become part of the rules." Wang Xiaoming continued following Lucifer's words.

"So, do you understand?" Lucifer asked again.

Wang Xiaoming wanted to shake his head subconsciously. After all, he felt that Lucifer didn't say anything at all, but after thinking about it, it seemed that this was not the case—Lucifer had already told him everything he could say.

"If I become the Dao of Heaven in the future, I will designate the rules of the whole world alone?" Wang Xiaoming began to think along the line of thinking given by Lucifer, "The most feared thing about the rules is repeated revisions. It is always a big taboo to change the rules from day to day. So Are these worlds just for me to learn to think and judge independently?" Wang Xiaoming asked Lucifer.

"I don't know, I'm also exploring on this road." For example, just now, Lucifer suddenly realized that a qualified Heavenly Dao will not blindly follow the original rules of the world.

"But at least, I think so." This is the only answer Lucifer can give Wang Xiaoming at this stage.

"So you won't tell me whether you want to help Bai Mian." Wang Xiaoming came to the final conclusion, although this sentence sounded more like a complaint.

"Yes, because my decision cannot represent your will." Lucifer nodded affirmatively, "But there is one thing I can tell you."

"What?" Wang Xiaoming looked at Lucifer expectantly, and unconsciously leaned on Lucifer.
