Chapter 2015 Relationship
"Mr. Jiang!"

The man's voice was a little loud, "That's the monster I caught!"

"It's a gift I want to give to Master!"

Mr. Jiang twitched his lips.

My junior brother hasn't agreed to accept me as his disciple yet.

Has the master been called?
"Xiaojie."

Mr. Jiang slowed down his tone.

"This time I brought Xiao Xiao to see you, just to see if the monster you caught is the one Xiao Xiao is looking for."

"If so."

"Xiao Jie, for my sake, please return this monster to friend Xiao Xiao."

The man's face froze.

Return, return it to the other party?
The man was unhappy.

But it was not easy to refute Mr. Jiang in person.

He looked at Xiao Xiao again.

"This monster is not yours."

Although he didn't remember from whom he had pulled the monster off.
But it was definitely not the person in front of him.

He could be sure of that.

"Ah."

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 had just heard the man say.

"Yes."

Xiao Xiao's eyebrows curved slightly, "I've been looking for many days."

"Why are you looking for it?"

The man muttered quietly.

He was really puzzled.

"This monster can absorb spiritual energy."

"It can also suck blood."

"Such a dangerous monster."

The man raised his eyes, his gaze sharp, "It should be destroyed."

"He'll thank me."

"Isn't he entangled by this monster?"

"Why are you still looking for it?"

"Correct that a little."

Xiao Xiao's mouth curled up slightly, "It's not accurate to say that he was entangled by this monster."

"they are……"

Xiao Xiao thought about it and chose a statement that the man could more easily understand, "a harmonious relationship."

The man's eyebrows jumped.

getting along well?

"like you?"

It was hard to tell whether the man's tone was sarcastic or simply puzzled.

He glanced at the monster on Xiao Xiao's shoulder with an unclear expression.

……

"Ah."

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 Xiaoyi wrapped around his wrist, Xiao Xiao's expression remained unchanged, with a slight upward arc at the corner of his mouth, "Let's not talk about it for now, this is just a possibility."

"Besides, that was his choice."

"He believes in Xiaoyi."

"Oh, Xiaoyi is the name he gave to this monster."

In order to avoid the man's confusion, Xiao Xiao explained it.

"This choice does not involve others, it only concerns him and Xiaoyi."

"He has complete freedom to make that choice."

……

Xiao Xiao's implication was very clear.

If a choice affects others, then others have the right to interfere with the person making the choice.

But if this choice will not affect anyone, then no one except the person concerned can interfere with the person who makes the choice.

Even if it's with good intentions.

……

"..."

The man was speechless for a moment.

He wanted to refute Xiao Xiao's words.

But I couldn't find any reason to refute it.

"…Are you saying I'm meddling in other people's business?"

After a while, the man uttered these words faintly.

He never imagined that one day he would be accused of meddling in other people's affairs.

His feelings were somewhat complicated.

……"A little."

Xiao Xiao smiled, not affected by the man's momentarily ugly expression.

"You know he took a leave of absence from school to look for Xiaoyi, ran through many red lights, and almost had a car accident."

"Xiaoyi is a very important friend of his."

"You took his friend away without permission, and he was very worried."

……

"friend?"

The man's face showed a puzzled and somewhat sarcastic expression.

"Yes, my friend."

Xiao Xiao nodded slightly, as if he didn't hear the sharpness in the man's words, and said in a calm tone, "So next time you take action, please spend more time observing."

“Some people were indeed saved because of your actions.”

"But some people are distressed, sad and upset because of your presumptuous behavior."

"The relationship between humans and monsters is not just about opposition."

Xiao Xiao looked directly into the man's eyes. His gentle tone made the man feel like a hammer was hitting his heart again and again. "It's more complicated and diverse."

“One size fits all is not a good approach.”

……

Mr. Jiang opened his mouth.

He has said similar things to his junior fellow apprentice many times.

I also mentioned this to the child.

But neither of them listened to what he said.

I wish what happened today could have some impact on Xiaojie.

Xiaojie is still young.

It should be easier to change than for my junior brother.

To be honest, many of Xiaojie's current thoughts about monsters were also influenced by his junior brother.

Given the respect this child has for his junior fellow apprentice, it's not easy to get him to change his perception of monsters...

……

The man pursed his lips.

Lips are pale.

……

"So……"

Xiao Xiao looked at the old man, "Mr. Jiang, can we go now?"

"what."

Mr. Jiang was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Oh, sure."

Now that the monster that Xiao Xiao was looking for had been found, they had no reason to stay.

"Xiaojie."

The wrinkles at the corners of Jiang Lao's eyes relaxed, "Then we'll leave."

"Don't you want to take me as your master?"

"Then don't go out hunting monsters too often."

As a result, the boy suffered from injuries of varying sizes all the time.

Just like my former junior brother.

"Junior brother doesn't like people who are half-baked and try to show off their abilities."

I hope what he said can make this kid behave more restrained.

Before, this child was just a junior who wanted to become his apprentice.

He didn't care too much.

But if we meet by chance, we will say a few words.

After all, he saw many shadows of his former junior fellow apprentices in this child.

This time, it was his first time to come to the other person's home.

I always feel like I'm closer to this boy than before.

Some "redundant" words were spoken.

……

"what?"

The man's attention was instantly drawn to the old man's words.

"But Master always accepts the monsters I give him."

He doesn't look unhappy or angry.

Although Master always has a stern face, it is difficult for people to judge his current mood from his expression.

But as time went on, he more or less began to feel his master's emotions.

He was somewhat confident about his understanding of his master.

……

Uh……

Mr. Jiang smiled bitterly.

"Junior brother hates monsters."

and so……

As long as he sees a monster, he will take action.

No matter who gave him this monster.

He would never refuse to kill a monster himself.

……

Ok?
The man was stunned.

He knew that his master hated monsters, so after his master refused to accept him as a disciple the first time, he came up with the idea of ​​using monsters as a gift, hoping to impress his master and get him to accept him as a disciple.

But what does this have to do with the fact that the master accepted the monster he "offered"?
