Chapter 2015 Relationship
"Mr. Jiang!"
The man's voice was a little loud, "That's the monster I caught!"
"This is the gift I want to give to Master!"
Jiang Lao twitched the corner of his mouth.
Junior brother has not yet agreed to take on a disciple.
This master has already been called?
"Xiaojie."
Mr. Jiang slowed down his tone.
"I brought little friend Xiao Xiao to you this time just to see if the monster you caught is the one that little friend Xiao Xiao is looking for."
"If so."
"Xiaojie, for my sake, please return this monster to Xiao Xiao."
The man's expression froze.
Give it back to the other party?
The man is not happy in his heart.
But it was difficult to refute Mr. Jiang in person.
He looked at Xiao Xiao again.
"This monster is not yours."
Although he didn’t remember who he pulled the monster off from at that time.
But definitely not the person in front of me.
Of this he was certain.
"Yeah."
Xiao Xiao nodded.
"It belongs to a friend of mine."
The man's lips moved.
".He is looking for this monster?"
This seemed to be what he just heard from this person.
"Yes."
Xiao Xiao's eyebrows curved slightly, "I've been looking for it for many days."
"Why are you looking?"
The man whispered.
He was really puzzled.
"This monster can absorb spiritual power."
"It also sucks blood."
"Such a dangerous monster."
The man raised his eyes with sharp eyes, "It should be eliminated."
"He wants to thank me."
"Isn't he obsessed with this monster?"
"Why are you still looking for it?"
"Correction."
The corners of Xiao Xiao's mouth turned up slightly, "The statement that he was entangled by this monster is not accurate."
"They are..."
Xiao Xiao thought for a while and chose a statement that was easier for men to understand, "a harmonious relationship."
The man's eyebrows twitched.
Live in harmony?
"Like you?"
It's hard to tell whether the man's tone was mocking or simply confused.
He glanced at the monster on Xiao Xiao's shoulder, his expression unclear.
……
"Yeah."
Xiao Xiao agreed with the man's analogy, "Same as me."
Man:...
"He will be killed by this monster."
The man said this with almost certainty.
Feeling the slight movement of Xiao Yi wrapped around his wrist, Xiao Xiao's expression remained unchanged, and the corners of his mouth still had a slight upward arc, "Let's not say that this is only a possibility."
"And, that's his choice."
"He believes in Xiao Yi."
"Oh, Xiaoyi is the name he gave this monster."
The man was confused, so Xiao Xiao explained.
"This choice does not involve others, it only concerns him and Xiao Yi."
"He had complete freedom to make this choice."
……
The implication of Xiao Xiao's words was very clear.
If a choice affects others, then others also have the right to interfere with the person who makes the choice.
But if this choice does not affect anyone, then no one except the person involved can interfere with the person who makes the choice.
Even with the best of intentions.
……
"..."
The man was speechless for a moment.
He wanted to refute Xiao Xiao's words.
But he couldn't find a reason to refute.
"...Are you saying that I am nosy?"
After a long while, the man faintly uttered these words.
He never thought that one day, he would be accused of being nosy.
His feelings were somewhat complicated.
..."A little bit."
Xiao Xiao smiled, unaffected by the man's momentary ugly expression.
"You know he took a leave of absence from school in order to find a primary school student, ran through many red lights, and almost got into a car accident."
"Xiaoyi is his very important friend."
"You took his friend away without authorization, and he was very worried."
……
"Friends?"
There was a puzzled and somewhat sarcastic expression on the man's face.
"Yes, friend."
Xiao Xiao nodded slightly, as if he didn't hear the sharpness in the man's words, and his tone was calm, "So next time, please take more time to observe before you take action."
"Some people have been saved because of your actions."
"But there are also some people who are very distressed, sad, and sad because of your arbitrary opinions."
"The relationship between humans and monsters is not just opposition."
Xiao Xiao looked directly into the man's eyes, and his gentle tone made the man inexplicably feel like a hammer was hitting his heart, "But it needs to be more complicated and diverse."
“One size fits all is not a good idea.”
……
Mr. Jiang opened his mouth.
He said similar things to his junior brother many times.
I also mentioned it to the kid a few times.
However, neither of them listened to his words.
It would be nice if what happened today could have some impact on Xiaojie.
Xiaojie is still young.
It should be easier to change than Junior Brother.
To be honest, many of Xiaojie's current ideas about monsters were also generated under the influence of his junior brother.
Given the respect this child has for his junior brother, it's not easy to get him to change his perception of monsters...
……
The man pursed his lips.
The lips are pale.
……
"So..."
Xiao Xiao looked at the old man, "Mr. Jiang, can we leave?"
"Ah."
Mr. Jiang was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Oh, yes."
Now that the monster Xiao Xiao was looking for was found, they had no reason to stay.
"Xiaojie."
The wrinkles at the corners of Jiang's eyes relaxed, "Then we're leaving."
"Don't you want to become your junior brother?"
"Then don't go out hunting monsters too often."
As a result, the young man was constantly suffering from injuries of various sizes.
Just like the previous junior brother.
"Junior brother doesn't like people who are half-assed and still trying to show off."
Hopefully what he said would make the kid behave more restrained.
Before, this child was just a junior to him who wanted to be his junior brother.
He didn't pay much attention.
But I will say a few words when I meet someone by chance.
After all, in this child, he saw many shadows of his former junior brothers.
This time, it was his first time to come to the other party's home.
I always feel as if I am closer to this boy than before.
Some "superfluous" words were said.
……
"Huh?"
The man was instantly attracted by the old man's words.
"But Master always accepted the monsters I gave him."
It doesn't look like he's unhappy or angry.
Although Master always has a straight face, it is difficult for people to judge Master's current mood from Master's expression.
But as time passed, he began to feel more or less his master's emotions.
In terms of his understanding of Master, he is still somewhat confident.
……
Uh...
Mr. Jiang smiled bitterly.
"Junior brother hates monsters."
So...
Whenever he sees a monster, he will take action.
No matter who gave this monster to him.
He would not refuse to deal with a monster with his own hands.
……
Um?
The man was stunned.
He knew that his master hated monsters, so after his master refused to accept him as his disciple for the first time, he came up with a way to use monsters as a apprenticeship ceremony, hoping to impress his master and let him accept him as his disciple.
But what does this have to do with the master accepting the monster he "offered"-
ps: Thank you Cang Qian Qian Jue and Xiao Cui for the reward~(*︶*)!
