Chapter 280 Humans and demons are different after all
"However, if someone could accompany me and protect me, I could walk around and have a stroll without having to worry about anything."
The girl raised her head and looked at him with her beautiful eyes under the hood.
Being looked at by the little leech demon, I felt a sudden excitement in my heart, and I was hesitant about how to respond.
"Huh...what's that over there?"
Suddenly, the little leech demon raised his hand towards a pond in the distance.
"It's a mandarin duck."
Su Mu collected his thoughts, looked in the direction of the little leech demon's finger, and then explained.
"They always come in pairs. They look so good."
The little leech demon said this with some envy, and walked forward a little further, and Su Mu immediately followed.
All the way
The girl was talking and laughing, and always looked lively and cheerful.
…………
Grandma Green Snake is already old, and even though she has good cultivation, she is still very tired after traveling for a whole day.
So they found a mountain stream to rest.
"It's old, old."
Grandma Green Snake sat on a piece of bluestone, gently patting her ankles.
"Everyone will grow old. Humans will grow old, and monsters will grow old too."
Su Mu laughed beside him.
"Too."
Grandma Green Snake smiled, looked up, and saw the girl who had run to a flower bush not far away and was stepping on a bouquet of flowers. It was as if she saw her younger self.
"What do you think of Xiao Tan?"
The old man turned his head and looked at Su Mu.
"Xiao Tan is innocent, pure and kind, he's a good person."
"Have you ever thought about being together?"
Su Mu looked up in surprise.
The old man's cloudy eyes seemed to show a shrewdness that saw through the world: "You are very smart, can't you see it at all?"
Su Mu was silent.
He is not really a straight man. He has been with the little leech demon for these days and has seen every move of the little leech demon. How could he not guess something?
After feeling better, he hesitated and said, "I already have a girl I like."
The old woman was stunned for a moment, and then she stood up involuntarily. Her old eyes were filled with a cold feeling like a cold wind scraping at the bones.
Su Mu just stood there quietly.
After a while, the old man withdrew his gaze, but the cloudy eyes were obviously not as gentle as before when looking at him.
"I am a human, and she is a demon. If I were a demon, I probably wouldn't have any concerns, but I am a human."
Su Mu whispered and explained again.
"Is it because of what you humans call the different paths of humans and demons?"
Green Snake's voice became a little more indifferent.
"I don't care about the so-called 'different paths for humans and demons'. I just don't want Miss Tan to have the same fate as you did."
"Humans have short lifespans, but demons have long lifespans. I've gained a hundred years of joy, but what awaits the demons is thousands of years of loneliness and desolation. Although I haven't experienced it, I can sense it from my predecessors."
The green snake's gaze narrowed, no longer as cold as before, but whispered: "Tushan, there is a 'reincarnation and continuation of fate'."
"Reincarnation continues."
Su Mu murmured, then shook his head: "I will not carry out the 'reincarnation continuation of fate'."
The so-called reincarnation means losing the memory of the past. Whether it is personality, habits, or life, they have already become completely different. So, is the so-called "reincarnation" really reincarnation?
Su Mu was not sure about these, but he probably did not need such a reincarnation and would not choose it.
"If possible, I hope Miss Tan will always remain this cheerful, innocent, and happy."
He looked up at Grandma Green Snake and said with a smile:
"What do you think?"
The green snake was silent. Although she had waited for reincarnation and continuation of the relationship for life after life, and did not feel that such waiting was painful, she also knew that such waiting was not something that ordinary people could do, nor was it something that ordinary people could wait for. Only the person involved knew the loneliness that had to be endured.
"Humans and demons are different after all..."
Su Mu spoke softly.
"Hey, what are you talking about?"
The little leech demon came running over, looking at Su Mu and Grandma Green Snake with some curiosity.
"Just talking about the upcoming trip."
Grandma Green Snake spoke with a smile.
"oh oh!"
The little leech demon glanced at Grandma Green Snake and Su Mu with some doubt in his eyes, but he didn't see anything, so he didn't think much about it, but happily took out two wreaths:
"Look, what Xiao Tan made. A wreath. I just picked a lot of flowers and wove them into a wreath. Doesn't it look nice?"
The little leech demon lifted up the garland, and in the warm sunlight of the setting sun, it fell on the beautiful outline of the girl, looking very beautiful.
"very nice."
"very beautiful."
Qing Snake and Su Mu praised one after another.
Cui Yu Xiaotan seemed very happy and gave a woven wreath to Qing Snake and Su Mu respectively.
Seeing Su Mu and Grandma Green Snake both wearing the wreaths she had woven, Cui Yu Xiaotan looked extremely happy.
"Let's take a rest."
Su Mu looked at the girl who was about to pick flowers again and whispered.
"it is good."
The little leech demon stopped after taking two steps and sat down next to Grandma Green Snake.
The warm wind was blowing, the sun was setting, and the clouds under the sunset were glowing red like a fiery cloud. The wind was blowing through the leaves, making a rustling sound.
Su Mu also found a place to sit nearby, and the old man and two children quietly looked at the fiery clouds in the distant sky.
Cui Yu Xiaotan took out a few red fruits from the small medicine box on her waist, handed one to Grandma Qingshe, took a bite of one herself, and then handed the red fruit she had bitten to Su Mu.
Su Mu took the fruit, looked at the bitten red fruit, and couldn't help but look at the little leech demon.
"Eat quickly."
When Cui Yu Xiaotan saw him looking at her, she turned her head away feeling guilty.
Su Mu shook his head helplessly, but he didn't mind that the red fruit had been bitten by Cui Yu Xiao Tan, so he ate it in one bite.
Seeing him swallow the red fruit, Cui Yu Xiaotan also swallowed the red fruit in her mouth.
The flesh is sweet, and the sweetness falls between the lips and teeth, and into the heart and lungs.
The warm breeze from the mountain stream blew gently, and the girl took off the hood on her head. Her long pink hair fell in the wind. The little leech demon tilted her body and leaned her head on the shoulder of the man next to her.
The feeling on his shoulder made Su Mu stunned, and he couldn't help but look down at her.
The little leech demon also looked up at him with a nice smile: "Do you mind if I use your shoulder to rest for a while?"
"Of course I don't mind."
Su Mu laughed.
The warm sunset cast a rosy glow on the boys and girls. The warm breeze blowing from the mountain stream stopped at some point, and there was silence all around.
then
The world became quiet at this moment.
