"For the demon race."
Yuan Yuanyuan almost bit the tip of her tongue, forcing herself to say this.
…
Nowadays, no matter who you are, you have told lies when you were young... Actually, to be honest, Yuan Yuanyuan told more lies when she was a child than when she grew up.
When I was young, I didn’t want to go to school, so I lied and said I was sick. When I was young, I was afraid of being beaten by my parents, so I lied and said that the cut on my face was not caused by me, but by the kid next door…
Childhood is the weakest period of time. Children at that time basically have no power to fight against the world. So when they encounter something that they cannot solve, if there is no one to guide them correctly, some children will choose to escape.
So when Yuan Yuanyuan grew up, she gradually understood that she shouldn't lie... In fact, in addition to gradually understanding the truth, there was another reason why she had to be familiar with it.
As I become stronger, I need to lie less and less; as I become stronger inside, I am fully prepared mentally for some of the things I need to face.
Lying is actually a kind of psychological weakness... If a person can face everything, then the lies he tells must be very few.
A person who often tells lies must be a cowardly person, if nothing else.
Just like when Yuan Yuanyuan grows up and forgets to wear thick clothes, she will no longer be afraid of her mother scolding her, so she can tell her mother openly.
In this way, she would naturally not lie about a small matter like not wearing clothes.
Yuan Yuanyuan has felt for many years that she is very honest and reliable, and she almost never lies. The only lie she has told in recent years was about her identity "Yuan".
However, at this moment, she was in a daze, and almost in an instant, she seemed to have returned to a very young age.
It was as if a switch was suddenly turned on in the dark.
Suddenly, the round mouth started talking for no apparent reason.
She was dazed and actually didn't know what she was saying at this moment. She just said subconsciously, "I am doing this for the demon clan."
"Indeed, it is for the demon race."
“Maybe you don’t quite believe me… But I can prove it with my actions.”
When she said this, she didn't control the expression on her face at all.
However...if there was someone standing in front of her at this moment, he would definitely see an indescribable sincerity in her expression.
That kind of sincerity seems to come from the heart... No one who sees it will have any doubt.
When saying this, Yuan Yuanyuan neither cried nor laughed, she just sat there quietly and spoke in a very calm tone.
Her face was red, and although her eyes were open, they were out of focus, and her breath seemed to smell of alcohol.
After she said it calmly, she didn't even add a single extra word... Just these two calm sentences, without any other words.
However, these two short sentences... seem to carry more weight than any other words.
Even the best answer that Patriarch Lan had thought of before he came was not as good as this one.
His face was also drunk, but he suddenly raised his head and looked at Yuan Yuanyuan opposite him.
However, Yuan Yuanyuan inexplicably swayed twice in his sight, then suddenly fell down and fell on the table without any sound.
…
"How could this happen?" Tang Shi was looking at the forum and hadn't fallen asleep the whole time. "Where are the armistice terms? Where is the convention?"
She read the website from top to bottom. These were all written down by the students after their own summary. In the early hours of Monday morning, seven monsters who were out on the border between the human settlement and the monster settlement in the northwest were arrested for no reason and their whereabouts are still unknown.
Early in the morning, the inspection team discovered the situation and negotiated with humans. After the negotiations failed, the human race sent out Taoist priests to block the border and issued a red alert.
As of early Tuesday morning, there had been no progress, and the humans were very tough in their attitude and were trying to capture more innocent monsters.
“This is too bullying…” Tang Shi felt like his chest was going to explode as he read on, and the replies below basically said the same thing.
How could this be possible? What did the Northwest Army eat? Where were the generals guarding the Northwest
There is no general in the northwest now. There is only a person who was temporarily promoted to general to guard it... This general was urgently promoted from lieutenant general.
The rabbit who was in charge of writing censorship before
Damn, this is bullying the Northwest because there is no one there... The veterans in the Northwest are either dead or injured, and now there is no one who can withstand it. Why doesn't he go to the Central Plains to capture people
As Tang Shi read on, she felt a surge of anger in her heart. Just as she was about to roll up her sleeves to reply, she suddenly received a call on her cell phone.
"Hello? Qiu Ling, what's the matter?" Tang Shi suppressed his anger, but his words still had a hint of gunpowder.
"Tang Shi, why were there so many crows here yesterday and today?" Qiu Ling's voice was a little panicked, "And they are all monsters... Has City C become a crow's nest?"
"It's okay. They are all little monsters. They can't transform into human form. They are just delivering messages. I'll hang up if there's nothing else." Tang Shi's tone was a little heavy, but then he realized it immediately and adjusted his tone. "Something big happened recently. I'm not in a good mood. Sorry."
"It's okay. Can you tell me what the big deal is?" Qiu Ling asked.
Tang Shi originally didn't want to tell Qiu Ling, but she was straightforward after all, so when she heard Qiu Ling asking, she immediately told her everything like a machine gun, leaving Qiu Ling stunned.
"Then, then why did he arrest people? Didn't he tell us?" Qiu Ling suddenly asked.
"What else can we do? They are stupid humans who bully us monsters because we have no one to rely on!" Tang Shi was suddenly stuck after he finished speaking, "Sorry."
"It's okay." Qiu Ling said, "Sometimes I also think we are pretty stupid... But can you show me the armistice agreement you mentioned?"
"Okay." Tang Shi immediately copied a copy and sent it over... This was actually the first time in all these years that she had read the armistice agreement in its entirety.
Before this, she had never read it carefully... just like few people would look through the messy things signed during World War I and World War II.
Qiu Ling was silent for a while, then sent another message, "Look, it's clearly written here, humans are not allowed to enter the monster territory without reason... How did they get there to catch people?"
"I don't know, it was at the border, so they caught him."
"I don't really understand what's going on with you monsters." Qiu Ling said, "But... I always feel... Forget it, don't move, don't go no matter what others ask you to do, just stay at home quietly, I'll come to find you now."
When Tang Shi was feeling puzzled, he suddenly noticed a flock of crows flying over the window opposite.
City C has been like a desolate wilderness these past two days... Crows are flying all over the sky and have even been on TV. Experts say it might be the breeding season... Bullshit.
Tang Shi turned her head back and looked at the news on the computer. She refreshed it and a bunch of new posts appeared. One of the posts was: Have you heard about it? There might be a war. It's going to start again!
She looked at the post and suddenly felt dazed for some unknown reason.
Crows were flying all over the sky outside, delivering news to the monsters in the city... Looking up from below, it looked like black clouds.
…
“I… just drank too much for one day. What on earth happened?” Yuan Yuanyuan looked at the crows outside with a headache and asked with a grin.
"Oh... I heard yesterday that humans accidentally caught monsters on the front line."
"A monster was caught by mistake?" Yuan Yuanyuan thought for a moment, "How could a monster be caught by mistake? This is simply not taking the armistice agreement and the surrender agreement seriously."
Humans are not allowed to enter the monster's habitat without permission.
Were the words in this treaty eaten? This was paid for with the blood of so many people... Ah, the main thing is Yiqi. The treaty between monsters and Taoist priests is not like the treaty between humans that is followed purely based on conscience. There is a punishment from heaven for that.
When Yuan Yuanyuan heard this, she found it a bit puzzling and there were many things that didn't make sense. She looked up again and wondered why there were so many crows again.
When she was wondering, her cell phone suddenly rang. Yuan Yuanyuan answered the call and found it was Qiu Ling, whom she hadn't seen for a long time.
"Boss, I just called Tang Shi... She said that humans and monsters are going to go to war. Is that true?"
"Who told you that?" Yuan Yuanyuan was shocked.
"It's just... Tang Shi said that it was spread on their monster internal network." Qiu Ling said, "I'm really worried, so I want to find a more reliable person to ask."
Someone who is more reliable... Me? Yuan Yuanyuan thought.
"Yesterday I..." She was just about to say that she drank so much yesterday that she passed out and didn't know anything, and just woke up, and asked not to ask her about such things, when she suddenly found that the mirror on her chest made a noise.
"Hey, wait a minute, Qiu Ling, I have something here." Yuan Yuanyuan answered the phone with one hand and picked up the mirror with the other hand and looked at the words on it.
Worship Master Yuan:
After unanimous discussion among all the family heads and the Council of Elders, we have decided to invite you to join the negotiation team.
To negotiate with the people in the Northwest Territories regarding the border issues in the Northwest Territories.
Huh? What is this
Just as Yuan Yuanyuan was about to continue watching, she felt a sudden pain in her head, which made her grimace in pain.
"Why are you drinking so hard?" Liu An came over. "Even if you are the head of the Lan family, you don't have to be so cruel."
"Master Lan? Do you know him?" Yuan Yuanyuan asked.
"Yes, I know him." Liu An said, "He's a famous family in City C. I saw it from the pattern on the bottle this morning. Why did you insist on drinking with him? What did you drink?"
"I don't know." Yuan Yuanyuan said, "Quick, quick, rub my head."
She turned around and asked Qiu Ling, "What did you say?"
…
In a warm house, a white-haired old man was waiting anxiously. He waited for a long time and suddenly saw a person being carried in through the door.
"How... did you allow the master to drink like this!" The old man got angry when he saw it, "What do you do for a living?"
"Don't, don't curse..." the person being held drunkenly said, "Okay, Yuan can... I agree with him."
As soon as he said this, a girl next to him shouted in dissatisfaction, "Brother!"
"Alright, alright, help him in quickly," said the old man next to him. Immediately a woman came over and followed the girl next to them to lift him up and carry him back into the house.
When he entered the house, the Lan family head's face was still red and his expression was very excited. The woman next to him looked distressed and said, "Hurry up and make some hangover soup... How did you become like this? This is the first time I see you drink like this."
"I drank it all." The head of the Lan family said drunkenly.
"Did you drink it all?" The girl next to him widened her eyes. "Did you two drink that bottle... all?"
The head of the Lan family wanted to say something else, but suddenly his head tilted and he retched a few times.
"Hurry up, hurry up, bring the hangover soup over here." The woman next to him said anxiously, "He's really drinking like hell... He's going to die at the table sooner or later. Do you want to go and vomit first?"
"You're really hurting the enemy but losing yourself eight hundred." The girl next to him smiled with disdain, "Forget it, I'll go back first. We'll talk about the elders' meeting tomorrow."
As she spoke, she walked out with the woman, and the door was gently closed, leaving only the head of the Lan family in the room.
After a long time, the head of the Lan family, who was lying on the bed, suddenly muttered, "It's as if a little brat like you can make the decision for the elders."
He turned over again, and this time he really fell asleep immediately, drunken and unconscious.
