Ten Days End

Dilong was silent for a long time, and then slowly said, "I really don't know..."

"Qi Xia split a plan into countless pieces, and even he himself has no way of knowing the whole picture now." Qinglong said, "I find it hard to understand... the reason for all this is to go to that blood-red world. Would you be willing to go with him?"

Seeing that Dilong didn't speak, Qinglong looked her up and down again, and added, "You go with him in this way... with scales all over your body and a lizard-like face?"

"You mean..."

"I don't know what is in that world. Now "Tianlong" and Qi Xia both want to go and find out, but I don't want to. I don't want to create a whole new world..."

Dilong's face became silent again, and he never said a word.

"Dilong." Qinglong said again, "Even if other "Earth-level Zodiacs" haven't made up their minds, you should have done it."

"I... have made up my mind? "

"All the "Earth-level Zodiacs" are looking forward to being promoted to "Heaven-level" one day, thus shedding their monster skins, but only the "Earth Dragons" know that they can never be promoted to "Heaven Dragons" anyway. "Qinglong smiled and said, "You were already prepared when you chose this path." "

"Yes, I didn't understand it at first..." Dilong said with a wry smile, "Dragons can obviously become the managers of the "Zodiacs", but no one is willing to sit in this position... Later I figured it out, because everyone who joins the "Zodiac" wants to get out, but the "Dragon" can't. As long as you choose to become a "Dragon", you will become a slave forever. "

"That means you admit it." Qinglong said, "Your purpose of joining the "Zodiac" is different from theirs." "

"Yes." Dilong said, "There is no need to hide it now. Maybe I will die, but it's worth it. "

After Dilong finished speaking, he showed an expression of fearless death, but Qinglong did not make any move.

"You won't kill me...?" Dilong asked after a while.

"I like your frankness." Qinglong turned his head and continued to look down and said, "If you had any quibbling or denial attitude, you would be dead now."

"You call this frankness..."

Dilong smiled bitterly again after hearing this, and simply squatted down and sat down next to Qinglong.

She was petite, with small horns and scales on the side of her face. She seemed like a spiritual pet next to Qinglong.

"I don't understand it a little bit." Dilong asked, "If you know everything... why did you let Qi Xia go to this point now?"

"I said... I'm a little curious." Qinglong said, "When you find that the ants at your doorstep have their own ideas and the whole army is mobilized to plan a big thing... you will also want to see the result. ”

“What an “ant”…”

Qinglong chuckled: “How many people do you think would single out an ant and kill it when it just started to move…”

“But you didn’t expect that the ant could turn into a human and finally stand in front of you. He is almost as powerful as you, so you can’t kill each other.” Dilong also looked down and said, “This is also unexpected for you, right?”

“Oh…?” Qinglong looked at Dilong with interest, “I never realized that you are such a talkative person?”

“Since I knew you saw through me, I don’t know why… I actually relaxed a lot. "Dilong laughed a few times, "For so long, even the nightmares I had when I was sleeping were all about you twisting my head off after you found out my identity."

"So what's the source of your sudden cheerfulness?" Qinglong said, "Do you think I won't kill you?"

"No." Dilong shook his head, "It's just that I know I'm dead, so it's useless to pretend now, I just want to sit down and rest for a while."

"Ha, it's interesting." Qinglong held his chin and looked down at the people coming and going below, "I didn't want to kill you, but you think you're dead."

"Yes, since I became a "Zodiac", I have a lot of time to think independently." Dilong said, "I also figured out a lot of things because of this."

"For example?"

"For example, in this game, even if you don't kill me, I will die." Dilong looked at the people below with a smile and said indifferently, "I have a hunch that someone will "bet their life" with me."

Qinglong asked with the same expressionless face after hearing this: "Then Qi Xia won't save you? "

"Qi Xia is one of the candidates." Di Long replied, "He might kill me himself.""Then I really can't understand it." Qinglong sighed, "How can there be such a relationship in this world? You are willing to die for his plan, even if he knows nothing, even if he will kill you with his own hands... do you think it doesn't matter?"

"To be honest..." Dilong frowned and smiled, "I am afraid of pain and death. But some things are like this, you will no longer be afraid after being afraid. The same is true for pain, you will get used to it after being in pain."

"I really can't understand these "human natures." Qinglong said.

"Qi Xia let us live for decades longer." Dilong said, "Isn't that enough? We came here in our twenties and have lived for fifty or sixty years. Everyone is old enough to die of old age."

"Die of old age...?"

"Yes!" Dilong smiled and stared at Qinglong and said, "You don't know how much I miss it, I miss the party commemorating our "death of old age"... Qi Xia said that after we drank enough wine and woke up that day, everyone was equivalent to "death of old age". "

Qinglong turned his head and looked at Dilong's excited narration, obviously with some interest.

"That year, we counted and found that some of us were over 90, some were over 80, and some were over 70. No one in this world can choose when to "die of old age", but we can. I and those companions who are like family choose to "die of old age" on the same day. After that day, we joined the "Zodiac" team. You asked us why we were ready to die, but for us, we had already died of old age. "

"Interesting." Qinglong nodded, "I have never heard of such a statement. Each of you not only chose to "die" by yourself, but also used the unique way of "dying of old age" that mortals can do. "

"Is there anything incomprehensible about this?" Dilong was still laughing, "Our bodies have not changed at all, but our thoughts and memories are old enough. Real "monsters" like us, even without this skin, can no longer integrate into the real world. "
