After walking out of the bathroom, Fu Li was not in high spirits and walked to the quiet campus path, not wanting to speak.
There are many ginkgo trees beside the road, and the leaves rustled when the wind blew. Zhuang Qing looked at the leaf on Fu Li's head, and after holding back for a long time, he reached out and picked it off.
Fu Li turned his head to look at him, his eyes were confused and a little curious, and I had a question to ask all over his face.
"What do you want to say?" Zhuang Qing sighed while playing with the ginkgo leaves in his hand, "Speak directly."
"Don't human beings value love very much? Why are things so ruthless?" Fu Li whispered, "There is a grievance formation in that building, that ghost lover, who deliberately killed those students. , let them become resentful ghosts, and then hate the suicidal Earthbound Spirit, right?"
Fu Li can't understand why, even if they don't love each other anymore, they are already separated by yin and yang, so why not let go of each other's ghosts
"Because he knew he had done something wrong, he felt guilty and afraid. When the guilt and fear exceeded the critical value, he would try to destroy the source of his guilt." Zhuang Qing has lived in this world for nearly two thousand years, and he has seen many The ugly and kind side of human nature, so no matter what the result is, he can face it calmly, "It's like a debtor, who owes too much debt and can't pay it back, he will give birth to the idea of letting the creditor disappear. people's hearts."
"If you owe a debt, don't you have to pay it back?" Fu Li was puzzled. "It's you and me who cultivate, and you have to pay back what you owe because of cause and effect..."
"So don't you understand? Humans are more complicated than demons." Zhuang Qing looked at Fu Li, "So don't easily believe what humans say, even if what he said at the time was true, it doesn't mean that it will be true for a lifetime. volatile."
Fu Li drooped his head, thinking of his pet, the writing was beautiful, he could tell stories, and the roasted meat was much better than the one made by the king, and whispered: "Not everyone is like this, right?"
Seeing Fu Li's expectant look, Zhuang Qing had no choice but to nod, "Yes."
After walking out of the campus, Zhuang Qing saw that his interest was still not high, so he said, "Let's go, I'll take you to a place."
"Where?" Fu Li followed Zhuang Qing into the car.
"Don't you want to know the thoughts of that Earthbound Spirit's ex-boyfriend?" Zhuang Qing fastened her seat belt. "I'll take you to see him."
After Luo Pingwei was brought back by the case team, he pretended to be calm for a while, until the experts who studied the crime in his heart pierced his lies, and the police found strong evidence in his home, and he began to explain his crime process and motives.
Twenty years ago society was not tolerant of gay love, so it was possible that someone would commit suicide because they could not bear the rumors. Now this man is doing such cruel things for his deceased lover. Although the sin is unforgivable, it also makes people with stronger empathy feel a little sympathetic.
"Many ruthless criminals wear a layer of love or kinship, and they seem to be excusable." After reading the case records, Peng Hang scolded while holding his instant noodle bucket, "It's all These beasts, if they really have love in their hearts, how can they attack these innocent students."
Even those inhuman murderers like to say that they were unfortunate in their childhood or abandoned by their ex-girlfriends. There are not enough people for them to kill.
No reason can be used as an excuse to cover up your crime.
"Captain is right." A police officer sneaked out a ham sausage from a drawer, was seen by a colleague, and divided half of it. He was so frightened that he hurriedly stuffed the remaining half into his mouth and swallowed it before he did it. He continued, "If the criminals are justifiable, do those who were killed by him deserve to be killed?"
"Forgive the murderer is because the victim is in the underworld. Our police are responsible for catching the criminal." Peng Hang was so hungry that he didn't get a drop of water since he was busy at noon and he felt that he could eat the whole bucket of noodles in one bite. .
"Team Peng." A police officer walked into the office and whispered in Peng Hang's ear, "Someone asked the suspect Luo Pingwei some questions, and the leader took him over."
"Who is it?" Peng Hang wiped the oil from his mouth and picked up the police cap on the table, "Let's go and see."
This bastard has killed several students, is there anyone else to protect him
The Cultivation Management Department is externally attached to the security department, so Zhuang Qing "uses public interests for personal gain" and leaves to see the suspect. The police can't refuse, but when they question the suspect, the police must be present.
"You are Luo Pingwei?" Fu Li sat at the old-fashioned desk and looked at the man in front of him. He was a little fat, wearing glasses, and his skin was pale. He looked very gentle.
"Who are you?" Luo Pingwei's demeanor was very good, and no one could have imagined that under this skin, there would be a cruel murderer.
"Why do you want to harm those students?" Fu Li felt that such human beings were too terrifying, and the so-called "beasts in clothes" were nothing more than that, but he always felt that this idiom was not very friendly to their demon cultivators. On an equal footing with birds and beasts, they can't do this kind of thing.
"I don't want to hurt them, but if they die, Ali can come back to life. For Ali, I'm willing to do anything." Luo Pingwei wiped his tears and talked about his past with his lover, their affection, their love Helpless, and his thoughts that have never been cut off in the past 20 years.
How hypocritical can a person be
Seeing the man sang and narrated his friendship well, Fu Li said blankly, "But isn't the method you used just to make him go away?"
Luo Pingwei moved for a while, then continued to cry: "He is the only love in my life, how could I treat him like this."
"Lie." Fu Li's dark eyes stared at Luo Pingwei, "A human like you loves only yourself."
Luo Pingwei felt that the eyes of the person on the other side were very uncomfortable. Under his line of sight, he seemed to have no clothes on, and he didn't have any cover up. He was embarrassed and annoyed, "What do you know, why should I tell you this?"
"Everyone has to pay for what they do wrong." Fu Li stood up with cold eyes, "You won't be that exception."
"Police, he's threatening me!" Luo Pingwei pointed at Fu Li with his handcuffed fingers, "Now the emphasis is on civilized law enforcement."
Seeing that everyone ignored him, Luo Pingwei began to say that he was a doctor from a famous foreign university and wanted to complain about this practice without human rights.
"Don't ask?" Zhuang Qing followed Fu Li out of the inquiry room.
"Nothing to ask." Fu Li pursed his lips, "It's a pity to give up your life in order to protect the love with this kind of person."
Zhuang Qing snorted: "You don't understand love, why do you think so much?"
Fu Li was silent for a moment, and found that he could not refute.
Seeing Fu Li and Zhuang Qing coming out of the inquiry room, Peng Hang didn't go forward. Watching the two walk out of the police station, Peng Hang returned to the office to continue eating instant noodles, but he had a new judgment on Fu Li's identity in his heart.
No wonder Fu Li's job is always changing, and investigating his past life can't find anything useful. It turns out that he is a member of the national security department. Those bricklayers, security guards, etc., are all his disguise outside, just to investigate the case.
To understand this, when a colleague asked him about Fu Li, he always said he didn't know. Talking nonsense at this time is harmful to others. Peng Hang knows very well what to do and what not to do.
After leaving the police station, Zhuang Qing saw that Fu Li was not very interested: "Let's go, I'll treat you to a late-night snack."
"What's there to eat in the middle of the night?" Fu Li didn't like convenient meals like hamburgers and fries, so he wasn't interested in Zhuang Qing's proposal.
"You'll know when you've been there." Zhuang Qing threw Fu Li into the car.
The car stopped in a small alley. There was a very small restaurant in the alley. The signboard of the restaurant was painted in white paint with the words "Night Owl Restaurant" written in red paint. There were a few customers sitting sparsely inside. Lazy.
The cook was a middle-aged man with very bright eyes. When he saw Fu Li and Zhuang Qing, he greeted him warmly.
"What do you two eat? I have dumplings, noodles, wontons, and malatang here." The middle-aged man wiped the clean table again. "The price is fair and the portion is sufficient."
"What do you want to eat?" Zhuang Qing asked Fu Li.
"Malatang." Fu Li added, "Add more meat dishes."
"Okay." The boss responded, turning around full of energy to cook Mala Tang. Fu Li took a few glances at the other diners. These diners were not humans. Their bodies consisted of cats, dogs, and an owl.
These diners looked like regular customers of this restaurant. They occasionally joked with the boss and joked with each other, but more often they looked at Fu Li and Zhuang Qing from time to time, as if they were guessing their identities.
The two bowls of Mala Tang came to the table, as the boss said, the portion was very large, and the boss even poured two bowls of soy milk for them. Fu Li originally thought that the boss was an ordinary human being, but he soon discovered that the other party had a very faint smell of monsters, but this smell was very weak and almost disappeared.
The regular customers didn't leave even after they had given the money, talking about their troubles at work, but their attention was always on Fu Li and Zhuang Qing.
Fu Li vaguely felt that this was a bit strange. After eating, he and Zhuang Qing left the store. Sure enough, the regular customers also got up and left.
"This person's ancestor is an owl, and he is best at making dragon and phoenix soup." Zhuang Qing started the car and opened the window to dissipate the spicy smell on his body.
"and after?"
"Later, he fell in love with a human woman. The two married for ten years without a child. The human woman accidentally discovered that he was not human."
"Then, what happened after that?" Fu Li was a little nervous, "They separated?"
"If they are separated, where will the descendants come from?" Zhuang Qing looked at Fu Li as if he was looking at a fool, "They love each other very much, and they didn't give up this fate because of their different races. Later, the owl asked for help. Medicine, let him have children with human women."
Seeing that Fu Li seemed to be interested in this story, Zhuang Qing continued: "Human life is limited, human women are getting old, owls are too sad, and they died not long after they lost their cultivation. The owner of this restaurant, I don't know. He is the first few generations of great-grandsons, although he has long lost the instinct of demon cultivation, but the cooking skills have been inherited."
"Have you ever drank the dragon and phoenix soup made by that owl?" Fu Li was a little curious. Wouldn't Zhuang Qing mind this soup's name as dragon and phoenix soup
Zhuang Qing nodded: "I have had it, it tastes good."
The car was quiet, and after a long time, Fu Li suddenly understood: "Zhuang Qing, you are telling me about the past, do you want to tell me that some love is still very beautiful?"
"I'm so old, why do I still like to think wildly? I'm just telling a story."
Fu Li: "Oh."
The inside of the car became quiet again, but this time the silence was extraordinarily long. Until Fu Li got off the car, Zhuang Qing didn't say a word.
After a busy night, Fu Li finally had time to take a vacation during the day. He bought a lot of food and knocked on Kunpeng's door.
Although there was a lot of food this time, Kunpeng didn't make a fuss about drinking. He was afraid that if he got the rabbit drunk again, the dragon in the management department would jump up and down to fight him again.
"Master Kunpeng, in fact, I have something to ask for..."
Kunpeng put the half-eaten duck tongue back into Fu Li's hands: "Don't let me fight, I'm afraid of death." There are so many delicacies in the world, how can he die if he hasn't eaten enough
"Master Kunpeng, you misunderstood, there is no fight today." Fu Li stuffed the duck tongue back and let Kunpeng continue to eat, "It's just a little thing."
"Why do I think it's not good for you to find me?" Kunpeng looked at Fu Li suspiciously, but still ate the remaining half of the duck tongue.
"I invited you out to dinner before, which time was not a good thing?" Fu Li's eyes widened, "I'm the kind of demon who deceives demons?"
"That's true." Kunpeng thought about it carefully, "Then tell me."
Fu Li was waiting for Kunpeng's words. He turned into his original shape with a thud, and his furry front paws held the chicken wing while gnawing, "Something strange happened to me."
Kunpeng touched his fat back: "It's really strange, rabbits like to eat meat, and they are so fat."
"Lord Kunpeng, you didn't wash your hands." Fu Li moved to the side, shaking the hair on his body, "I... two nights ago, I accidentally ate two bites of dragon meat, which attracted Tianlei."
"You gnawed Zhuang Qing?" Kunpeng raised his voice, "You're still not a demon, even a juvenile dragon can talk?"
"How could I gnaw on my own people? It's the Qinglong you beat up last time."
"Good bite!" Lord Kunpeng's emotions have always been so flexible, "But no matter how capable you are, you are only a rabbit. For the sake of species balance, Heaven can't tolerate us big monsters, so why can't you tolerate a rabbit like you? ?"
Kunpeng wiped his hands intentionally, picked up Fu Li and looked at it seriously for a while, then crossed his legs and touched his chin: "Look carefully, you look a bit different from a rabbit, but I have been in the demon world for tens of thousands of years. I don't look like you." No matter how big he is, he still thinks this is a bit strange, how can rabbits eat dragons, this is completely against animal instinct. Even if animals and plants cultivate into demons, they will carry their own characteristics. He has never seen someone like Fu Li.
Thinking that he has lived for so many years, not to mention that he is knowledgeable and talented, and he has seen a lot, I really can't see anything wrong with this rabbit. The only special thing about the other party is that they have the opportunity to transform into a shape, and the others are not much different from rabbits, except that they have a dog's nose.
The most powerful part of these ancient demons is their body. They are incarnated by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and they are born with divine power. Other demon cultivators can't compare to them even if they practice desperately. According to the current statement, they were considered the darlings of Heaven at that time.
Breathing into clouds, traveling thousands of miles a day, and being able to move mountains and rivers with a single anger, the ancient demons didn’t have these abilities, so they were embarrassed to be considered big demons. A small-bodied demon cultivator like Fu Li, who had nothing powerful in his body, was no different from the weeds on the road back then.
But if he is so ordinary, how could Heavenly Dao hack him
"No, Tiandao can even chop Yu Qiang into slag, why are you still alive?" Kunpeng felt that this was the most important point.
Fu Li was a little embarrassed: "Zhuang Qing protected me."
"It's no wonder that you are so determined to follow such a half-blooded dragon, to follow this kind of heavenly darling, Tianlei will open the back door for you." Kunpeng opened another bag of chicken feet with pickled peppers, "Since you don't know what you are, why don't you just do it? When I am a rabbit, I look at rabbits very well."
Fu Li turned back into a human body, and remembered his out-of-control state that night, and felt a little uneasy in his heart. He lowered his head and took a bite of the biscuit in his hand, but what he thought was the taste of dragon blood.
Tender, tasty, even with a certain energy that appealed to him.
"But Zhuang Qing treats you well. You suddenly want to eat dragons, and he still protects you." Kunpeng suddenly said, "If I were him, I would probably start guarding you. God is crazy, what should I do if I bite him too?"
Fu Li was stunned, he didn't seem to have thought about this. Although he didn't care about other people eating rabbit meat in front of him, those were rabbits with no spiritual intelligence, Qing Yan... but nearly three thousand years old, a dragon that could transform into a human form.
"Being a demon, following the right boss is a blessing." Kunpeng glanced at Fuli out of the corner of his eye, "You are lucky."
"That's true, although Zhuang Qing looks a little indifferent, but his nature is very good." Fu Li didn't eat the biscuits, and began to count Zhuang Qing's advantages, "Generous, calm, responsible, kind-hearted, and high cultivation. , show loyalty..."
"Stop, stop..." Kunpeng said with disgust, "You look so proud, you think you're praising your son if you don't know. Are you a rabbit, can you be born a dragon?"
"He is young and underage, so he should be praised for doing such a good job." Fu Li said confidently, "Young people should be encouraged."
Kunpeng was too lazy to pay attention to him, moved his butt, turned his back to Fu Li, and continued to eat chicken feet.
He has to sigh countless times that pickled pepper chicken feet is really the greatest invention of mankind.
After the snacks, when Fu Li was about to leave, Kunpeng glanced at him and stopped him.
"Cultivation lies in cultivating the mind, whether it's a rabbit or other monsters, you are still you." Kunpeng is rarely so serious, "The world is huge, and changes are happening anytime and anywhere. It doesn't matter what the body is, you don't have to worry about it. "
Fu Li was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Thank you, Lord Kunpeng."
"Go on, go, I'm going to sleep." Kunpeng kicked his legs and rolled to the ground, complaining in a low voice, "Young demon is too busy."
After Fu Li left, Kunpeng sat up from the ground with a solemn expression.
It can turn the green python that Yu has been raising for tens of thousands of years into ashes, eat dragons, and attract thunder...
Kunpeng recalled that thousands of years ago, when human beings were just emerging, there was a ridiculous rumor in the demon world, saying that a new monster would be born soon, and in a few thousand years, they would replace these big demons and become the leaders of the demon world. At that time, he thought it was a rumor spread by ignorant demons who were afraid of them, so he didn't take it seriously at all.
In fact, not only is he not true, but other big demons don't take such ridiculous rumors seriously.
It has been five thousand years since the rumor came out. According to the rumor, this monster that can replace them should have been famous in the entire monster world hundreds of thousands of years ago. How could it still be unknown.
If the monsters that can replace their ancient monsters really look like Fu Li, then that is the most ridiculous thing in the monster world.
To put it this way, Zhuang Qing is more in line with the rumored new leader of the demon world. It is the current cultivation world that is a bit sloppy, and this boss is not very prestige.
On the tenth day of the eighth lunar month, Zhao Xiu, the head of the Qingxiao Sect, celebrated his 150th birthday. As a leader in the cultivation world, the head of the Qingxiao Sect was highly respected. Not only did people respect him, but even the demon cultivators respected him very much. In the first three days of his birthday, the home page of the Cultivation World Forum put out a slogan for his birthday. Some juniors in the cultivation world discussed the glorious deeds of the head of Qingxiao in the forum. The Qingxiao faction not only did not stop it, but also the inner disciples. , secretly came to break the news, and said some small shortcomings of the head.
Everyone was chatting, and the topic turned to which comprehension leaders would go to Zhao Xiu's birthday banquet.
A little demon who had just transformed into a timid message said: I heard that Minister Zhuang Qing of the management department is very powerful. Will he go to the birthday banquet of the head of Zhao
Demon Manicure: Haha.
Ren Xiu B: Haha.
Half-Monster C: Haha.
Disciple of Qingxiao Sect: Minister Zhuang Qing is in charge of every day. However, Minister Zhuang Qing does not seem to like to participate in such occasions, I am afraid that he will not come. But in case, it is not illegal to dream.
A certain sect disciple who had some festivals with the Qingxiao Sect: Hehe, some sects are daydreaming with a big face because they have two disciples working in the management department. Look at it, if Minister Zhuang goes to the birthday banquet of the head of Zhao, I will live on the forum and eat my mobile phone.
Qingxiao Sect disciple: …
So angry, but unable to refute.
