Chapter 422 Good Monster, Bad Monster

The prerequisite is that the child himself must learn to let go.

Don't let yourself relive this bone-eating hatred over and over again.

……

"Because this is my friend."

"Guo Shan, do you want me to kill my friend with my own hands?"

There was a hint of solemnity and coldness in Xiao Xiao's eyes and brows.

……

friend?

Yes, Master Xiao said that this monster belongs to his friend.

Guo Shan couldn't help but carefully glance towards Xiao Xiao's right shoulder.

A faint outline came into view.

Just when he was wondering why the silver-blue color he had seen before disappeared, two spots of silver-blue suddenly appeared.

The gorgeous colors made Guo Shan feel cold when he saw it, and he subconsciously looked away.

……

But how can a monster be a friend?
Guo Shan looked at Xiao Xiao again, with some unconscious doubt and questioning in his eyes.

Such a bad monster, a monster that made him so miserable, a monster that wanted to hurt his sister, a monster that always sucked his blood...

"Guo Shan."

The child's confused and scattered gaze focused again, and his mind went blank.

"Guo Shan, the parasitic vine monster is dead."

"The monster that hurt you is dead."

"It will never be around you again."

"You'll never see it again."

……

Xiao Xiao kept repeating the same thing, as if he wanted to engrave all these facts into Guo Shan's mind.

His eyes were indifferent and his tone was light, and even though he seemed a little cold, there was not a trace of aggressiveness in him.

"This monster is my friend."

"It won't hurt you."

……

Guo Shan's expression gradually became confused.

Can monsters really be friends?
Aren’t all monsters bad guys?

……

"Guo Shan, do you like making friends with bad guys?"

Although he was somewhat puzzled by Master Xiao's strange question, Guo Shan still shook his head honestly.

How could he like making friends with bad guys?

Obviously bad guys will hurt him.

His mother and teacher taught him that if he encounters a bad guy, he should find the police.

"So do you like making friends with nice people?"

In response to Master Xiao's increasingly strange questions, Guo Shan nodded with a confused face.

Everyone likes to make friends with nice people, right?
Is there anything wrong with this?
……

"Guo Shan, there are good people and bad people."

"There are good monsters and bad monsters."

"Although you hate bad people, you like to make friends with good people."

"So why do you hate all youkai because of one bad youkai?"

Xiao Xiao spoke at a steady pace, stating his questions in a straightforward manner.

But it made Guo Shan fall into deep thought.

Because it was Master Xiao who said these words, Guo Shan accepted them without any preconceived notion.

Then I slowly began to understand what Master Xiao meant.

……

Guo Shan is already in the sixth grade of elementary school.

Although still just a child, he already has his own vague sense of right and wrong.

It is natural that there are good people and bad people.

But he unconsciously ignored the fact that monsters can be good or bad.

Perhaps it was because the first and only monster he encountered was a cruel and powerful monster that caused him great harm.

This gave him a profound but one-sided view of monsters.

Make him feel that monsters are evil and are unbearable creatures that will hurt others.

……

However, after hearing these words from his idolized Master Xiao, Guo Shan began to waver in his own beliefs.

"Guo Shan, I didn't ask you to like monsters."

"Even if it's a good monster, if you don't like it, you don't like it." "Don't force yourself."

……

"only."

"I hope that even if you don't like them, you won't have extreme hatred towards them."

"Okay?"

Xiao Xiao reached out and touched the soft hair on Guo Shan's head, "I don't want my two friends to hate each other."

"This will make it very difficult for me."

Xiao Xiao seemed to have a headache and tapped his forehead with his finger. Then he tilted his head slightly, blinked at the child, and showed a clear and gentle smile.

……

"friend?"

Guo Shan repeated this familiar yet unfamiliar word in a daze.

He really wanted friends for a long time.

But he really hasn't had any friends for a long time.

All his previous friends distanced themselves from him, and he couldn't even try to keep them.

Does he have friends now?

"Master Xiao, are we friends now?"

Guo Shan looked towards Xiao Xiao, his eyes filled with caution, and his voice was so light and fragile that it seemed like it would dissipate into the air with just a breeze.

"Of course, does Guo Shan think we are not friends?"

Xiao Xiao asked back with a smile.

"No."

Guo Shan quickly denied it, looking very anxious, "We are friends!"

Guo Shan emphasized it again, with stars twinkling and shining in his eyes.

"We are friends."

Guo Shan had a hard time controlling the curve of his mouth.

……

After grinning foolishly for a while, Guo Shan suddenly remembered that Master Xiao seemed to have asked him a question before?
He thought hard for a while, his eyes always on Master Xiao's smiling face.

His eyes moved and he caught a glimpse of the figure on Master Xiao's shoulder.

Guo Shan remembered Master Xiao’s previous question.

Although he hated monsters, he liked and admired Master Xiao.

Even if he couldn't let go of the hatred in his heart for the moment.

However, if Master Xiao wishes so, he will try his best.

Because Master Xiao is his savior and also his friend.

……

"Master Xiao, I won't hate all monsters for no reason."

Guo Shan felt that saying these words was not as difficult as he had imagined.

After all, every wrong has its perpetrator and every debt has its creditor, and I understand this truth.

……

"Good boy."

Xiao Xiao rubbed Guo Shan's hair. This child was really too sensible.

"But I don't like monsters."

Guo Shan said in a low voice, with a little willfulness.

"Ah."

Xiao Xiao responded in a low voice with a faint smile in his eyes.

"Guo Shan doesn't like monsters."

……

Xiao Xiao took Guo Shan out of the wisteria trellis, and the people waiting outside immediately surrounded them.

Guo Shan subconsciously hid behind Xiao Xiao.

……

"Master Xiao."

The impatience on Wen Shaoyuan's face was replaced by a smile, and the corners of his mouth twitched as he looked at Wen Shaoyang who followed behind.

This brat.

When he was waiting outside just now, he had a sour face towards him and Achuan, but now that he saw Master Xiao, he smiled like crazy.

Isn't this discrimination too obvious?
He is his own brother!

……

After Chi Xiuchuan greeted Xiao Xiao, he turned his attention to the child hiding behind Xiao Xiao.

Guo Shan's face was still pale, but he no longer had the dull look he had at the beginning.

His eyes were still calm, but no longer dull and lifeless, instead they had a lively touch.
