Yu Shishi was sitting on a cold rock. Seeing Zhang Chenran coming, she became inexplicably alert.
Zhang Chenran stopped three meters away from her:
"Do you believe me?"
Yu Shishi was silent for a while, then pointed at his shoulder and said:
"I don't believe you, but I believe it."
Hearing this, Zhang Chenran smiled and walked over to sit beside her.
"They feel safe with you around." He said to Qing'e who was flying beside Yu Shishi.
"They are my relatives." Yu Shishi continued to comfort Qing'e in her arms.
"Does this have anything to do with you becoming a maiden?"
"yes."
"Can you tell me about it?"
Yu Shishi turned her head and stared at him for a long time. After a struggle, she recounted her experience:
"When I was very young, I fell seriously ill. My family thought it was difficult to cure me, so they threw me into an unfamiliar forest.
I also knew that I wouldn't live long, so I walked into the woods, to a place I didn't know, and fainted in a warm and humid grass pond.
I was wrapped in a white coffin-like thing and I thought I was dead. After waking up, I realized that I was wrapped in a cocoon.
After sleeping for many years, when the cocoon opened, I was reborn in the white cocoon just like the Moon Moth Phoenix, without any disease or weakness.
But I have wings and fangs, and apart from my appearance, I am almost completely different from an ordinary person."
After waking up, she regarded the moths as her relatives, the family that gave her a second life.
Seeing her so miserable, Zhang Chenran stretched out his hands.
Whoosh, whoosh~~~
When he opened his hands, a gust of black wind blew past.
Because she was relatively close, Yu Shishi could vaguely see the tiny fireflies in the darkness.
That is a soul, a pure soul that has just died.
The black wind swallowed up the firefly light, replacing it with countless thin wings.
The light-winged creature was emitting firefly light, but the light was much dimmer than that of Qing'e beside Yu Shishi.
The Dark Light Green E and the Firefly Green E hovered around Yu Shishi.
"What, what's going on?" Yu Shishi's beautiful eyes were filled with shock.
She sensed that these dark-light green maidens were different from the green maidens around her, but her soul sense told her that these were the green maidens that had been burned to death before.
"Although they are dead, their souls are still there, and now exist in another form," said Zhang Chenran.
Yu Shishi's eyes were filled with complex emotions. She didn't know whether she should be glad that the dead Qing'e was resurrected, or whether she found it difficult to accept that the dead Qing'e existed in this form.
"Will they disappear?" she asked softly.
"No, as long as I am here, they will never die." Zhang Chenran responded to her.
Yu Shishi smiled, but her smile was bitter:
"Anyway, thank you for keeping them alive."
"Will you think I'm evil?" Zhang Chenran said with a smile.
"Totem beasts are friendly to humans, but they are not stupid. People who are purely evil will not be recognized by totem beasts." Yu Shishi said.
"Maybe." Zhang Chenran smiled and continued,
"Although I'm not a pure villain, I'm not a good person either. At least I think I have a clear conscience for everything I've done."
"Why are you telling me this?" Yu Shishi looked puzzled.
"I just think we are very similar." Zhang Chenran said:
"I came into this world without parents or any relatives. Loneliness made me feel at ease, and I always believed that I was someone who should live in darkness."
People living in darkness. Yu Shishi chewed on these words in her heart.
She was also abandoned and grew up in darkness.
She is a human being, but she can only be accompanied by moths.
At the beginning, she was also afraid and uncomfortable with moths. This was her human thought.
But the moths gave her new life when she was weak, free from the torture of disease, and gave her power that ordinary people did not have.
Gradually, she understood what real relatives were.
"Even after I came into contact with magic, I was still very scared. I lived in fear and didn't dare to seek so-called companionship and spiritual support." Zhang Chenran's tone was full of helplessness.
"What happened next?" Yu Shishi asked.
Yu Shishi did not see any deception in his eyes, which made her even more curious.
Without relatives or friends, he believes that he should live in darkness. Such a person must be extremely lonely inside, but now, she did not see any loneliness in Zhang Chenran.
There are many orphans in this world, but few can grow to his level.
"Later, for some reasons, I changed and no longer worried about whether I could survive." Zhang Chenran continued:
"In this world, only the strong have the right to speak. I have gained the power that allows me to live without fear, and I have the power to defeat those who hinder my survival!
You just want to survive, but there are always people who want to destroy your life and step on your head. If you don't have the strength to resist, you can only let others slaughter you. "
This sentence obviously touched her sore spot. Yu Shishi lowered her head and her emotions fluctuated significantly.
She clearly just wanted to stay there, and she didn't take the initiative to do anything harmful.
Why are those people from the Research Institute and the Magic Association unwilling to let her go? She clearly just wants to live and live with her family.
If, if she is like what Zhang Chenran said. She has strong power and absolute right to speak.
Would those people from the Research Institute not dare to attack again, and she could live in peace with the moths.
"But I don't have that kind of power, let alone the so-called right to speak. After all, I am just a moth girl who is feared and hated by everyone. They even compare me with demons." Yu Shishi had a bitter expression.
Not to mention getting such a powerful force as Zhang Chenran, her identity alone is not accepted by the world.
"This world is ugly and dirty, but it is also full of many unknowns. No matter whether the front is dark or bright, we can't stop moving forward, right?"
Zhang Chenran placed his hand on the back of her fair hand:
"We are of the same kind. I can understand your past, your situation, and your pain. Since you cannot possess that kind of power, let me be your strength."
Yu Shishi retracted her hand as if frightened.
When she raised her head again, her face, which looked like a painting, was beautiful and ethereal, with veins all over it, sharp fangs exposed, and the moth wings behind her were also exposed.
"This is who I really am," she said in a deep voice.
"Are you trying to scare me on purpose?" Zhang Chenran asked with a smile in his eyes.
Yu Shishi lowered her beautiful eyes and said nothing.
Suddenly, Zhang Chenran lifted her chin and lowered his head to kiss her red lips.
"Hmm."
Yu Shishi's ferocious and beautiful face was filled with helplessness.
She didn't expect that after seeing her looking so ferocious, Zhang Chenran would still do this.
For some reason, she couldn't push him away with her hands against Zhang Chenran's chest.
