The bronze mirror reflects two almost identical faces, which are also so beautiful, like the eyebrows and eyebrows carefully outlined in a meticulous painting.

It was just one of the faces, with raised eyes and a slight smile on the corner of the mouth.On the other face, the corners of the eyes are drooping, and the eyes are slightly rounded. When a look of surprise is shown, the eyes are more like cat's eyes.

Ying's chin was pressed against Er Dong's shoulder, and he pressed Er Dong's arm with one hand, making an intimate gesture.

The two in the mirror are like intimate twins, whispering.

"You know it in your heart, why do you still show a surprised expression?" Ying said.

"What can I know?" Er Dong said coldly and stubbornly.

Ying rolled his eyes and said angrily, "It's still the same duplicity as before."

He also said, "What's so bad about being a demon? Those mortal monks are far inferior to the two of us. They are just ants, and they are at the mercy of others. Isn't it good to feel in control of life and death?"

"I'm not you," Er Dong said.

Ying raised his eyebrows and said, "I don't like what you said. Back then you recognized me, I recognized you, and we are one."

There was a little contempt in Er Dong's eyes.

Ying smiled and said, "I know what you care about. Demons live on essence and blood, but you are afraid of drinking blood. But it's okay, you will gradually like this smell in the future, and even feel that there is nothing else you can drink except it. food."

The expression on Er Dong's face did not change, but there was fear in his heart, and his fingers could not help trembling slightly.He recalled the bloodthirsty impulse in the afternoon, and only felt that he was so uncontrollable and disgusting.

"Humans still eat rabbit meat, drink rabbit blood, dissect demons and cultivate their inner guts for their own use, what you have done is to treat their body in the same way as others."

"What's more, the law of the jungle is the foundation of nature. If people are stronger than rabbits, they can kill rabbits and eat meat. Once rabbits are stronger than humans, why can't they eat human blood?"

The man's face in the mirror was exceptionally soft, his eyes were full of smiles, but he spoke cruel words.

"People and demons regard demons as ominous, just because demons have supreme power, and they are afraid. If you listen to their nonsense and don't want to become demons, don't you fall into a trap? They want you to be like a chicken without hands The little devil with the power, has spent his whole life in a daze."

Er Dong said, "Have you said enough?"

Shadow stood up, the bronze mirror only reflected his thin jaw and slightly curved mouth corners.

Er Dong was still sitting in front of the mirror, staring at the face in the mirror that didn't belong to him but felt extremely familiar.

"It's okay, one day you will take the initiative to come back to me. There is a saying among human beings that people who are not of my race must have different hearts. Even if you want to be human, they will exclude you, fear you, and hate you."

Ying smiled and said, "Your master is no exception."

After hearing this, Er Dongxu's clenched palm suddenly shrank into a fist, and dark blue veins appeared on the back of the pale hand.

"Why doesn't Zhenhan Mountain allow you to go down the mountain? Why doesn't it like you but accepts you as an apprentice? Why accepts you as an apprentice but never teaches?" Ying uttered three questions in succession, each sentence hitting the softest and most vulnerable place in Erdong's heart.

Ying continued, "He didn't regard you as an apprentice at all, you are a prisoner in a cage, and he is that strong cage. Once you disobey and become rebellious, Zhen Hanshan will kill you without hesitation, after all He has already stabbed you with a sword, why not do it again?"

Er Dong narrowed his eyes and said angrily, "Shut up!"

"Why do you get so excited when I mention Zhenhan Mountain? I really don't like you becoming like this."

Shadow leaned over his wife, and the mirror showed two similar faces again.Ying's eyes were long and narrow, slightly drooping, with a cold look in his eyes, "You know what? This kind of reaction of yours will make me jealous of Zhenhanshan."

"Why are you obsessed with a ruthless person?" Ying's lips brushed Er Dong's ear, "You also refuse to believe me who is closest to you?"

A tingling sensation came from the furry ears, and Er Dong jumped up as if getting an electric shock, taking a few steps away from the man.

Shadow smiled with an innocent face.

"Go back wherever you came from, I don't need your kindness," Er Dong said.

Shadow sighed, and with a flick of his sleeves, he turned into a black shadow and merged with the night.

Er Dong watched him disappear, and then breathed a sigh of relief, and sat back on the chair exhausted, with cold sweat oozing from his forehead, as if he had been fished out of ice water.

The two beautiful faces in the mirror disappeared, leaving only the face of an ordinary, thin and pale teenager.The rabbit ears drooping on both sides are extremely weird.

Er Dong looked at this face, and felt a little relieved.

However, Ying's words still stirred his mind, and Er Dong had mixed feelings, the more irritable he was, the more he wanted to pierce the flesh with his teeth and suck the sweet blood under the skin.

Er Dong forced himself to erase the image of Chi Jin's neck in his mind, in order not to succumb to uncontrollable desires, he bit his wrist tightly.

The teeth sank slowly into the wrist, blood seeped out, but he felt no pain at all.After a long time, Er Dong raised his head, and there was a touch of bright red on his bloodless lips, which was gorgeous and dazzling.

Er Dong wiped the blood from his lower lip with the back of his hand, and the blood stain spread at the corner of his mouth.

He finally calmed down his bloodthirsty desire, and the teenager in the mirror showed a blunt smile.

That night, the evening wind howled.

Er Dong stayed up all night, and suddenly understood what he didn't understand before.

He is a demon.

He once committed murder, and his crimes are too numerous to write down.

The master accepted himself as an apprentice just to guard him and prevent him from causing harm to the world again.

He didn't understand why the master was only indifferent to himself before, but now he knows.Oh, who would go near a bloodthirsty monster?

The next day, Zhen Hanshan opened the door and came in.Only then did Er Dong realize that it was dawn.He was exhausted, but couldn't sleep all night.

"Took the medicine."

Master used to come to deliver medicine.Er Dong's pale face imprinted in Zhen Han Shan's eyes, Zhen Han Shan approached, with the back of his hand against Er Dong's forehead.

Er Dong didn't have a fever, he was startled by the man's actions, and couldn't help turning sideways to avoid Zhen Hanshan's overstretched hand.

Zhen Hanshan glanced at Er Dong, but didn't say a word.

Er Dong raised a stiff smile, "I'm not feeling well, I think I'll take the medicine later."

Zhen Hanshan nodded his head rarely, and said: "Don't forget." Before he left, he left a plate of jujube cake on the table.

Er Dong looked at the cakes and medicines on the table, and stretched out his hand towards the pills. He didn't swallow them in one gulp as usual, but rolled them in his palms like marbles.

The black meatball exudes a strange smell. I can't tell what kind of smell it is, but it is very comforting.

Er Dong stuffed the pill in his pocket, and in the afternoon he sat at the stone table, took out the pill and played with it in his hand.The fragrance of the pill stained the palm of the hand, and the whole hand smelled of the pill.

Chi Jin just ran to look for him, "What's in your hand?"

Er Dong didn't have time to stop, Chi Jin had already seen it.

The smell of the pill is strong, and Er Dong's palm is full of this smell.As soon as he lowered his head, Chi Jin smelled a strange fragrance.He slowly frowned, "Is this smell... Reincarnation Pill?"

"Reincarnation Pill?" Er Dong repeated in doubt.

"A good medicine that is worth thousands of gold. It is said that it has the effect of bringing the dead back to life and making the bones white. It can also be used by monks to increase their cultivation base."

Er Dong raised his head and looked at Chi Jin.

Chi Jin said, "Although it's expensive, it's not that I can't afford it. It's just that the medicine is expensive and there's no market for it. A pharmacist might not be able to make a few qualified reincarnation pills in his whole life. Spiritual cultivation is better, but it's also difficult."

"My mother worked so hard to find a few pills for me to take. Fortunately, I don't need to take medicine after I have this." Chi Jin took out the pendant around her neck. The bead seemed to have a pool of bright red blood inside.

Although the light pearl is beautiful, it looks ordinary against the backdrop of Chijin's precious accessories.

Er Dong didn't care to look at his pendant, still stuck in what Chi Jin said just now.

"However, you don't have to be the Reincarnation Pill. The smell of the Lianxin Pill is similar to that of the Reincarnation Pill. People often use the Lianxin Pill to deceive people." After Chi Jin finished speaking, she realized that Er Dong was absent-minded.

He looked closely, and found that Er Dong's face was ugly, and his eyes were sickly.

"What's wrong with you?" Chi Jin asked closer.Er Dong hastily turned his head away, unwilling to look directly at Chi Jin.He was afraid of his appearance and didn't want people to pry.

Er Dong found an excuse, saying that he was unwell, and ran back to the hut.

Seeing that he was out of his mind, Chi Jin wanted to catch up with him, but Er Dong had already disappeared. He felt that Er Dong was very strange these days, and he always looked preoccupied.

Why can't he be carefree and unrestrained like him?

Chi Jin was born high and high, and his father, queen, mother and concubine stopped all worries and worries for him, and only had to be happy as a prince.

According to Qin Clan's calculation, his hundred-year-old phoenix is ​​only equivalent to a six or seven-year-old child, still at the age of innocence.Chi Jin naturally couldn't understand what Er Dong was thinking.

Er Dong went back to the house, staring at the jujube cake left by Zhenhan Mountain in the morning in a daze.

He took a piece of pastry and stuffed it into his mouth to chew, but the jujube paste cake with strong fragrance tasted like chicken ribs in his mouth.

Er Dong couldn't taste the sweetness of the jujube cake, but he finished it in one bite, even the dregs upside down.

Only the medicine left by Master, Er Dong kept holding it in the palm of his hand, and when the cakes were finished, he opened the window and threw the balls into the pond.

The small pill fell into the water and disappeared instantly. The koi smelled the smell and swarmed up, flapping their gorgeous fins and splashing a little bit of water.

Er Dong looked at the happy swimming fish in the pond, and couldn't help touching the scales on his neck.

One piece, two pieces, three pieces... Just this afternoon, he found a new mark on his neck.

He must have done a lot of wrong things in the past before he was cursed.

If death was a punishment, he would accept it with ease.

The real reason why Er Dong didn't want to think about it, and didn't dare to think about it, was that he didn't want to become a bloodthirsty demon and die in the hands of his master in the end.

Compared with being killed by the master, dying by a spell is really an easy and happy way.
