The whole world thinks I'm inscrutable

It was noon on the second day after arriving in the demon world.

Qiu Die sat on the top of a tree, picked up flowers and drank honeydew, replenished her strength and took a rest.Leaning against the tree trunk, Ke Shaochen picked up his mobile phone and looked at a map that was completely different from what he saw in his eyes, casually playing with the bell that Yin Sijin gave him in his palm.

As early as less than an hour after departure, Ke Shao'an already noticed something was wrong.Although he doesn't know the reason, what is certain is that he was deceived by the monster beside him.

It's just that he didn't say anything immediately and asked out loud, but continued to follow behind Qiu Die, observing quietly, trying to see clearly what she was doing.

Because her behavior didn't look like she was trying to murder Ke Shao'an, but more like she was trying her best to accomplish something.The achievement of this matter required Ke Shao'an's participation, so he used lies and tricks to deceive Ke Shao'an and bring him to this place.

She would do whatever it takes to offend Ke Shao'an and destroy the possibility of cooperating with Ke Shao'an.

Ke Shaoan pondered for a while, and roughly guessed several possibilities.

It's just that no matter what the development direction of these possibilities is, what remains the same is that the other party will use Ke Shao'an to exchange for a result that can be of great benefit to her.

This result is greater than the benefits that can be obtained by forming an alliance with Ke Shao'an, and it is more important than her own lifespan or even her own life. Completed.

So what exactly is this benefit?

Not hard to guess.

Think back to the dreamlike quiet village under the moonlight, and you will understand.

Ke Shaoan took out the paper that he had already memorized the content by heart, and silently looked at the word "save people" on the top.

The meaning of saving people is not difficult to understand. It is one of the purposes of his coming here. He originally came to find the demon world that may be humans who are trapped in the demon world and can't find a way out.

But for some reason, "more" was mixed in between the word "saving people". Such an adjective made Ke Shao'an couldn't help thinking carefully and pondering.

This seems to be expressing to Ke Shao'an that the lives of a dozen human beings are more important than the lives of hundreds of monsters.

If you had a choice, which would you choose.

It's really a bad taste, but it seems to be a dilemma that we will face sooner or later.

As a human being, Ke Shao'an, whose standpoint is between humans and monsters, perhaps should have thought about this issue a long time ago.

If there is a conflict between monsters and humans in the future, and Ke Shao'an has to make a choice, what will he do.

Ke Shaoan unconsciously groped the smooth paper with his fingers, thinking quietly.

Without thinking for too long, Ke Shao'an had already made a choice he was satisfied with.

Both are required.

Regardless of whether it is a human being or a monster, no matter which side he chooses or which side he abandons, Ke Shao'an will eventually have regrets.

So, he wants both.

It's not that he is indecisive, or that he doesn't have the bravery of a strong man to cut his wrists, but that he thinks he has the ability to do so, so why doesn't he do it.

However, if you want Ke Shaochen to help, or even use Ke Shaochen in a deceptive way, it depends on whether Ke Shaochen is happy or not.

Ke Shao'an is not necessarily willing to exchange his identity, body, or even his life for such a risky thing.

If Qiu Die's answer doesn't satisfy Ke Shao'an, Ke Shao'an may leave directly, completely cutting off her thoughts of being lucky.

Expose the front side of the paper, fold it into a strip, tie it on the wrist with a ring, and always pay attention to whether it changes. Ke Shaohan raised his head and asked Qiu Die: "What do you think of your people? Are they?"

"Love." Qiu Die replied without any hesitation: "They are more important than my life."

Ke Shao'an spoke very directly: "What about my life?"

"..." Qiu Die's face changed slightly, as if she had sensed and understood something, and became a little nervous.But thinking about what her grandfather said to her in the bedroom before, "This is just an ordinary human being, he has no power, as long as his life is not threatened, he will be fine." He managed to calm himself down and said, "Tell me It is definitely a lie to think that your life is more important than my people, and you will not believe it. But please believe me, even if I hurt myself, I will never hurt you."

Ke Shaochen: "You are just a liar trying to take advantage of me, how can you convince me?"

Qiu Die's face turned pale, apparently shocked by the fact that Ke Shao'an had already noticed something was wrong, she quickly flew down from the tree, knelt down on the ground with her arms bent, her forehead pointed to the ground, and begged: "I use The life of our family of monsters is guaranteed. This statement is absolutely true. I will never do anything to hurt you. Even if it takes my life as the price, I will do my best to protect your safety and prevent you from encountering any danger! You trust me!"

Ke Shaoan looked at Qiu Die expressionlessly, and said, "Then tell me what your purpose is. According to the situation, I will decide whether to cooperate with you or not."

Qiu Die quickly raised her head and explained to Ke Shao'an, "I want to take you to meet our king."

Ke Shaoan frivolously raised his eyebrows, and tightly clenched the bell in his hand: "Your king?"

If he really went to that kind of place, Ke Shao'an might not dare to use the bell to call Yin Sijin out again.

He knew that Yin Sijin was very powerful, but he couldn't guarantee that Yin Sijin would be able to confront the strongest king in the demon world and retreat completely.

Or to put it another way, do monsters who pay attention to rank and status have the courage to resist in the face of their king?If he resists, will he be punished irreparably and hugely.

Ke Shao'an would never do anything to push Yin Sijin into the fire pit anyway.

Ke Shao said angrily: "How can you guarantee that I will be safe and sound when I go there?"

"I can promise!"

Knowing that "the king has been looking for a human being for thousands of years, you may be that human being", or "the coat of arms on your body can definitely make the king want to see you" are all false, and those who come from the human world do not know the situation in the demon world It is impossible for Ke Shao'an to believe her one-sided words, so the butterfly demon hurriedly said: "You think, if you will be in danger, how can I use your human identity to get the chance to meet the king! Only I am sure You will be safe and sound, that’s why we have the courage to risk the lives of our family to bring you to meet our king! Only if you live, can our family live!”

Ke Shao'an carefully analyzed the logic in these words, and he was indeed a little moved by the persuasion.

There are three reasons for talking. Qiu Die’s words are on the one hand, he is selfishly wanting to help such a pathetic demon clan and give them a just future; the content of the paper that has not changed has ensured his safety is on the other hand. ——If Ke Shao’an will be in danger next time, the future will be changed, and the content on the paper will not be written like this; I hope to meet the king of monsters and get a chance to talk face to face, yes One last aspect.

You know, that's the king of the entire demon world.He is the only king who controls the lives of all monsters and holds the entire territory of the monster world.

If you can meet with the other party, or even if you are lucky enough to say a few words, the benefits you can get are far beyond the comparison of one or two Wangyou flowers.

If you can further gain the other party's trust...

What an exciting and exhilarating situation that must be! !

Ke Shao angrily imagined that scene, and was so excited that his whole body trembled.

It’s okay to take risks, Ke Shao’an is willing to try.

Not to mention trying, maybe he will try every means to get Yin Sijin to keep sending him back to the moment when he met the king, using hundreds, thousands or even tens of thousands of chances of contact to please the king and make him feel good about him. Ke Shaochen made a good impression and reached a friendly relationship.

Qiu Die would never have imagined that her persuasion did not have much effect, instead, she directly moved Ke Shao'an by saying "Take you to see the king".

Ke Shao turned from passive to active, and said directly: "Since this is the case, you don't have to bother to change the surrounding scenery to deceive me. Concentrate on your journey and take me to see your king as soon as possible."

Qiu Die said pleasantly, "Are you willing to help us?"

Ke Shaochen: "Yes, after meeting the king, if the conditions are right, I will help you and have a nice word with your king."

Qiu Die was grateful to Dade, and wept with joy: "Thank you, thank you! You are the benefactor of our clan!"

Ke Shaochen: "It's too early to say these things. In short, let's go first. Your king is now at the funeral of the lord, or where?"

He has always had a good memory, so he naturally still clearly remembered the sentence that Qiu Die mentioned by chance when he was chatting with him yesterday morning.

Qiu Die: "According to the information inquired by our tribe, the king should watch the lord's burial at Shenshi today. So around that time, the king will be in the villa."

Shen time, that is, from three to five in the afternoon.Ke Shaochen asked, "Do you know where the manor is?"

Qiu Die nodded: "I know, although I have never been too far away from our territory, our clansmen will go out every year to find ways to find out these things and come back."

This is the map that her people bought with their lives, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with it.

Ke Shao said angrily: "Then don't leave, you just take me to fly there."

When Qiu Die heard the words, she naturally couldn't ask for it.Hastily stepped forward and bent down, inviting Ke Shaoan to come over.After feeling the weight on his shoulders, he firmly carried Ke Shaohan on his back, stretched out his wings, and turned into a bright blue shooting star in the blink of an eye at a high speed that was completely unattainable in the previous few flights. Row across the forest below.

Ke Shao was not surprised why a butterfly monster could fly so fast.

For a journey that takes life as fuel, it is natural to ensure that the speed is fast enough to reach every corner of this demon world without wasting life.

You should have deliberately trained this ability on weekdays.

Ke Shaoan looked at Qiu Die's face that was obviously more mature than yesterday, and said, "What is the curse on your family?"

Qiu Die replied: "The time for a stick of incense outside the territory is equal to the remaining time of ten moons in the territory."

Ke Shaochen made a quick calculation and said, "240 times the flow rate?"

"Two hundred...forty?" She didn't seem to understand the meaning of the number Ke Shaochen said.

"I remember that the lifespan of an ordinary butterfly is as short as dozens of days, and the most common is no more than eleven months." Ke Shao said angrily: "Then the clansmen you sent out were still young when they went out. Has become middle-aged or even old?"

Qiu Die said: "That's right."

Her grandfather was aging so quickly because he resisted foreign enemies and frequently entered and exited the territory when he was young and strong.

Ke Shao'an sighed softly: "This punishment is really too heavy."

"It's been like this for thousands of years, so it's not so much a punishment, it's more like a part of our family's life." It's like, humans who can't go out of the atmosphere, never feel how boring staying on the earth, Qiu Die said : "Grandpa said we are very pitiful, but I haven't been outside much, and I can't really feel how sad life is. It's just that I have always imagined that one day I can go out and see the outside world, but I didn't expect it to be realized in this way. , was not expected at all.”

Ke Shao said angrily: "Besides this curse, does your king have any other restrictions on you?"

"Nothing."

Ke Shaoqi said in surprise: "Then, as one of the 'six major clans', you are powerful, so how could you..."

How could he be reduced to such a passive state.

Qiu Die: "We are different from those monster races who decide the outcome by force. We mainly rely on racial abilities. One is 'seeing through', which can help us directly find the opponent's weaknesses and hidden moves that cannot be ignored. The other is 'Illusion', can unknowingly create a perfect illusion that can never be seen through, deceive the enemy's eyes, cooperate with the first ability to easily deal with various enemies. Even if you can't beat it, you can at least escape."

Ke Shaochen continued, "But?"

"However, our ability was seen through by the king thousands of years ago, and it was announced to the ears of all the monster races. Since then, all the monster races in the demon world know how to deal with our clan, so we can only become passive and deter The power and combat power will never be the same again." Qiu Die said: "Fortunately, our illusion can at least protect our homeland from being discovered by monsters from the outside world, as long as they don't destroy every corner of our entire domain. If we destroy it, we can continue to live—and no monster race has such a deep hatred for us, and is willing to pay such a high price to completely wipe us out."

Ke Shao said angrily: "It can be regarded as a great fortune among misfortunes."

"Yes." Qiu Die said: "Compared to the other six extinct clans and the Hedgehog clan, we are considered better."

"Hedgehog?"

Qiu Die gestured to the appearance of the Hedgehog clan: "The back is covered with spikes, which is very intimidating. It looks particularly inviolable, but in fact it is a very weak monster clan."

The image of a hedgehog appeared in Ke Shao'an's mind: "Yes."

"They used to be the most terrifying of all our demon clans." Qiu Die said: "The power is endless, so powerful that it is unimaginable. Fear has enveloped the entire demon world. Even our ancestors can't find their weakness. ...until the Hedgehog tribe was defeated by our king and announced the reason why their tribe was powerful, they immediately declined, and now they have completely become the targets of predation by all tribes."

Ke Shao said in amazement: "Your kings are so powerful—what is the reason for their strength? Why did they decline so quickly once the reason for their strength was known."

"It's fear." Qiu Die said: "They use the fear of monsters as their source of power. The more powerful the hedgehogs, the more they will publicize their power everywhere, so as to cause other monsters to panic about them. As long as the monsters If you continue to fear them, then they will always be the most powerful clan in the demon world. If the king hadn't found out the secret of their power back then, maybe even now, the demon world is still under the shadow of the hedgehog clan's oppression, and they will never be found. to the way out."

Ke Shaochen: "..."

The ability of this "hedgehog" sounds so familiar.

It seems that a certain subordinate he sent to the haunted house in the amusement park has the ability like this.

The trembling and trembling appearance at the first meeting is indeed very similar to a hedgehog with a soft belly, who will only bluff and shrink into a ball when it encounters danger.

Ke Shao said angrily: "I have to say, your king is very powerful."

The facts and secrets that thousands of monsters could not see through were easily subverted by him with the power of a single monster.

Such a remarkable existence, in the world, is definitely a great man who can be passed down through the ages. Ke Shao'an felt very honored to be able to meet it with his own eyes.

Qiu Die said: "Of course. Otherwise, how could he be our king?"

Just like this, you chatted with each other sentence by sentence, and the two of them wrapped in the phantom of Qiu Die quickly passed through fields and forests, crossed mountains and crossed rivers.Before I knew it, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.

Among the lofty mountains, on the top of the towering peak, is a majestic and solemn villa—from a height point of view, perhaps it is more appropriate to say that it is a castle.Ke Shao said angrily, "This is it?"

"Yes." Qiu Die's eyesight is excellent, and she has already seen the faces of many monsters in the distant villa, and said: "There are all big figures from the demon world inside, we can't just get close like this."

Otherwise, the subtle changes in the smell, wind direction, and surrounding scenery will be seen by the group of unpredictable monsters.

Just as Qiu Die imagined herself standing among the group of monsters and trying to pass through them unknowingly, she shuddered and her fingers began to tremble uncontrollably.

But Ke Shao'an is very familiar with this kind of stealth work, or it can be said to be more than capable.

Standing in the distance, he carefully observed the appearance of the castle, analyzed several places where the king who is the highest status should stay, and quickly found the entry point to enter the castle by using the scene he observed from a high place just now. He led Qiu Die forward without hesitation.

Qiu Die's hands and feet were cold, her complexion turned pale, Ke Shao'an even had the strength to turn around and comfort her: "It's okay."

Qiu Die could only forcefully smile as a reply.

Then try to adjust their mentality, hoping to represent their clan well when facing the king, and tell the king what they said.

This was a meeting that affected the fate of hundreds of people in their family.

Ten minutes later, Ke Shao'an quickly locked his target on an area in the castle.

Only here is the place with the most gorgeous decoration, but also the most peaceful place.

Qiu Die suddenly grabbed Ke Shao'an's hand, looked at the monster at the corner in front of him with fear in her eyes, and whispered anxiously to Ke Shao'an: "It's the lord!"

Ke Shaoan stood still and silently observed the monster not far away.I saw the other party's face was quiet and beautiful, with soft silver hair all over his head.Wearing a black tuxedo, he behaved like an aristocrat, full of gentlemanly atmosphere.I thought to myself that this monster is more like a person than a person.

"He, and the deceased lord, the two peoples have been with the king since thousands of years ago, and they are the king's close servants." Qiu Die said: "I think the place he is going at this time should be That's where the king is."

Ke Shaochen also thought so, looked down at the paper on his wrist, and said decisively: "Follow."

Qiu Die felt the coercion of the lord in front of her at a close distance, her teeth chattered in fear, but she still walked forward step by step.

Maybe they never thought that someone would dare to be "presumptuous" in such a place, or maybe they didn't expect that the Butterfly Clan, who had been huddled in the territory for hundreds of years and hadn't heard of it, would appear here.

Even the lord Qimu, who is under one demon and above ten thousand demons in the demon world, did not expect that there would be a person and a demon following him at this time due to his negligence.

Qimu went to see the king.

Although he is the Patriarch of the Qi family who is famous in the entire demon world and the closest attendant to the king, the time he can really see the king is actually not very long.

During the 100-plus years of following Wang, the number of times he actually witnessed Wang revealing his true thoughts was very few.Today, maybe one more time.

——Different from juniors like him, the monster who passed away this time was the great-grandson of Wang's childhood friend, and even the name was chosen for him by Wang himself.

It is said that when the big monster was still young, he served the king under the king's knees for more than 200 years. He had a deep relationship with the king and won the trust of the king.

But even if he enjoys the greatest pampering in the entire demon world, and sits on the most extensive territory in the demon world, he still cannot stand against the passage of time, so he quietly left forever in his sleep.

The king must be very sad.

With such a long time, I can only witness the death of the once close monsters one by one again and again.This is the sorrow of the immortal.

It is said that he has been guarding the lord's side all night alone, and has not gone out for half a step.

Qimu sadly imagined Wang's sad appearance, and only felt the pain in his heart.

This is their king, their unique, supreme king.

Wang's sadness is their heart-wrenching sadness, and Wang's wrath is their unparalleled anger. If possible, Qimu is even willing to use his own life to continue the life of the lord, just to make Wang Zhong smile.

I believe this is also the idea that every monster in the demon world will naturally come up with.

Standing quietly outside the house, Qimu said to Wang inside: "Wang, the time is up."

There was a sigh from inside, and a male voice came from inside.

"Come in."

The door is pushed open, revealing the appearance of the house, and it will be too late if you don't go in.Qiu Die grabbed Ke Shao'an's arm and led him into the room.

Knowing that it was impossible to hide from the king's sharp eyes, Qiu Die confessed her crimes as soon as she entered the door, and did not dare to continue using her ability to deceive the demon king: "King!"

Qiu Die knelt down on the ground in response, showed Ke Shao'an to her side, and said loudly to the monsters in the room: "Qiu Die, the sinner, pay homage to the king! Please forgive me—"

Before the words fell, Ke Shaoan had just seen who the monster sitting on the seat was, with an unbelievable look of astonishment in his eyes, and uncontrollable anger poured out from the other side's face, and he raised his hand to Qiu Die's body from the air shoot away.

"you wanna die!!"

Ke Shaoan never thought that the other party could show such an expression, and he didn't even have time to say "stop", so he could only use Qiu Die to hold his hand tightly and pull her aside in a hurry.

The next moment, blood splattered everywhere.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Yin Sijin is actually the most vicious person—ah no, demon.
