Chapter 536 The mother who became fireworks
Meng Chao finished speaking.
The underground space ushered in a deathly silence.
After a long time, Bai Shan sighed quietly and said with a bitter smile: "It would be fine if I didn't take action against you, then you wouldn't be able to catch me."
"impossible."
Meng Chao said, "If I remain unscathed, after weighing the pros and cons, you might choose to stand still and continue to be patient.
"But I carefully pretended to be dying, as if I could be stabbed to death with a knife. How could you resist such a great temptation?
"You know, you have no idea what Miss Mulian said to me, and what I would say to the wild wolf if I bumped into him.
"In this case, the safest and seemingly most convenient option is to kill someone and silence them."
"Indeed, I can only kill people and silence them, but I shouldn't be so smart as to tell the wild wolf that I saw you kill Miss Mulian with my own eyes."
Bai Shan thought for a while and said, "If I had made my words more ambiguous, maybe I wouldn't have exposed myself so quickly."
"This is impossible. If you didn't see me kill Miss Mulian with your own eyes, why would you chase after me and kill me?"
Meng Chao said, "Assuming that you just accidentally stumbled upon me sneaking around underground and doing shameful things, you should capture me alive and torture out a lot of information including Miss Mulian's whereabouts, instead of trying to kill me."
Make a killing move.
"Don't worry, I've considered every detail. You can't explain this matter clearly no matter what."
"..."
Bai Shan sighed and smiled bitterly, "Meng Chao, Meng Chao, he is indeed the most popular extraordinary person outside in the past two years. No wonder those people told me that this time the hunting team that went deep into the Leprosy Village to destroy the Divine Transformation Capsule Refining Factory,
The one with the highest level is 'Man-eating Shark' Zhou Chong, but the most difficult one might be you, a guy who has just entered the heaven level. Let me never underestimate you. If I see you, I will do it at all costs.
They will all kill you.
"I did as you were told. Unexpectedly, I fell into your trap."
Meng Chao said with piercing eyes: "Are you admitting that you colluded with the gangsters from outside - those guys who refine magic capsules and disguise themselves as Dragon City secret police?"
"Now that the matter has come to this, does it matter whether I admit it or not?" Bai Shan smiled sadly.
"Why?"
The two eyeballs of the wild wolf were about to turn into two red-hot crystals. He took a heavy step and gritted his teeth and said, "Bai Shan, why did you betray me, the Wild Wolf Gang, and the entire leprosy village? Do you know?
You know, there are probably monsters hiding behind those gangsters!"
"At first, I didn't know."
Bai Shan said quietly, "I guessed it later, but it doesn't matter anymore."
"It doesn't matter?"
The wild wolf laughed angrily, "Bai Shan, we have known each other for decades, but it seems like I have really seen you clearly for the first time at this moment. It turns out that in your heart, being a monster's minion is nothing."
Something about that?”
"Then you come and tell me——"
Bai Shan said calmly like a zombie, "Why can't we act as the monster's minions? Even if the dragon city is completely occupied by the monster, what does it matter?"
"Monsters want to eat people. Once the monsters completely occupy Dragon City, they will eat all the humans. Doesn't this matter?" Meng Chao couldn't help but said loudly.
He really couldn't understand Bai Shan's thinking circuit.
Or is it that the spiritual secret method of the demon god's "whirlpool" has become so sophisticated that it can completely distort and crush people's logical thinking while maintaining perfect calm and normality on the surface?
"Yes, monsters want to eat people. Being swallowed by a bloody mouth full of fangs, all the flesh and bones will be ground to pieces. This kind of death must not be very beautiful."
Bai Shan smiled, cast a deep look at Ye Lang, and suddenly asked a seemingly irrelevant question, "Ye Lang, do you still remember my mother?"
Yelang, Zhang Tie, Meng Chao, Aji, Miss Mulian, and the Yelang Gang were all stunned for a moment.
Bai Shan's face was blank, her eyes were out of focus, as if she had traveled through time and space, lost in long-lasting memories. She murmured, "My mother, like the parents of most people in the leprosy village, is in an underground workshop refining special weapons.
Work, dealing with high-radiation, high-pollution, high-toxic monsters and crystal materials every day.
"Because we have a third eye naturally growing between our eyebrows, we can see light and colors that normal people cannot see. We can distinguish subtle differences in various monster body fluids at a glance, and filter out the most powerful acids and
venom.
"So, my mother was assigned to work in the poison quenching workshop. Her task was to carefully smear the monster's highly toxic bodily fluids into the rune grooves engraved on the weapons and ammunition, ensuring that the smearing was even, and then refining it repeatedly to maximize the
Increase the power of weapons.
"This is dangerous and painful work.
"The more powerful the venom and acid are, the stronger their permeability. No matter how many layers of protective clothing or gloves you wear, the toxins will penetrate the molecular gaps and invade the mother's blood, muscles, nerves and bones.
"What's more, in order to ensure the quality of quenching, the mother must ensure the flexibility of her fingers, so it is impossible for her to wear the gloves with the best protective effect, but also the thickest and clumsiest.
"Sometimes, when the workshop receives large orders with extremely high quality requirements, my mother doesn't even wear gloves and works with bare hands like embroidery.
"After years of hard work, toxins accumulated in my mother's body, like hundreds of millions of tiny worms, eating her up completely.
"My mother is a taciturn person, or in other words, she has been tortured to the point of death by the matter of 'survival' and has no interest in talking or laughing at all.
"Since I can remember, there are only three sounds that I hear most often from my mother - coughing, moaning, and the 'dong-dong' sound of hitting the joints with the fist. Oh, there are four kinds, and there are also the sounds from the joints.
'Crack-click-click' sound.
"My mother told me that human joints are like mechanical gears. If they are rusty and cannot move, just give them a few hits with a hammer and they might be cured.
"When I was young, I was ignorant. I really thought my mother was some kind of mechanical superman who could do anything.
"Unfortunately, it is impossible to completely remove rust by just relying on a hammer, let alone make rusty machinery as shiny as new.
"No matter how hard my mother coughed, moaned, and banged her joints with her fists, her body was irreparably ruined bit by bit.
"Gradually, all of my mother's teeth fell out, and all the pulp nerves were exposed. Even drinking water hurt her to tears.
"Later, my mother's spine failed, and her waist kept bending, bending a few more degrees every day. From a tall and fit woman, she turned into a lobster-like monster that was stooped all day long.
"I was very afraid of such a mother, but she smiled and comforted me and said it was okay. She also said that the way she looked now made it easier for her to work at her desk and continue to apply more venom to more weapons.
"After some time, my mother's eyes also stopped working.
"Originally, the visual function of our third eye is more than 300% of that of ordinary people. The visual acuity, visual range, and ability to distinguish colors are all better than those of many extraordinary beings.
"But after working in a poisonous fumigation environment for a long time, my mother's three eyes were severely corroded, as if covered with a pale film, and her vision became increasingly blurry. Even when walking at home, she often stumbled.
A patch of green and a patch of purple.
"It was because her body was extremely weak and she couldn't get enough food and medicine. At that time, Miss Mulian hadn't grown up yet, and she hadn't awakened her magical healing power. No one could help her mother relieve her pain, and bruises were always there.
Not good, it changed from cyan to purple, and then from purple to black. Even if she is a mother, I think she is extremely ugly.
“Finally, on the morning when my mother lost her sight completely, she opened her eyes wide for the last time, groping randomly, and struggled to reach the underground workshop where she had worked all her life.
"The next thing can be done without using your eyes.
“Mom found a whole can of monster venom used to coat swords and bullets, opened the top, and drank it all.
"My mother died like this, just like countless leper villagers who could not bear the torture. In the underground workshop where she worked alone, that year, there were six uncles and aunts who chose to die the same way as her.
"This is really an unremarkable story.
"The only thing that impressed me was that when we cremated my mother, we found that her bones exuded fluorescent colors like crystal veins, and even crackled and exploded with colorful sparks. She was ugly when she was alive.
My mother died and turned into beautiful fireworks.
"It turns out that the deadly elements contained in various monster body fluids and crystal powders have long been filled with my mother's bones - in the terminology of extraordinary people, my mother's bones can be called 'spiritual bones', right?"
Hahaha!"
Bai Shan twitched the corners of her mouth and let out a sad smile.
"Bai Shan, I know you have been in pain because of your aunt's death. You have never walked out for so many years."
The wild wolf said solemnly, "But what does this have to do with you becoming a claw of a monster?"
"Ever since the day my mother turned into a firework and died, I have been thinking about two questions."
Bai Shan's three eyeballs were frozen, and she said in a daze, "First, Wild Wolf, do you think my mother was in the underground workshop day after day, year after year, being constantly corroded by toxins and acid, and gradually becoming decayed?
Is it more painful to be empty of flesh and blood, nerves, bones and internal organs, and eventually die alive? Or is it more painful to be directly eaten by a monster?"
"this……"
The wild wolf was silent.
"If you live and die for several years or even decades, and you don't see the possibility of changing the fate of your children before you die, and you will still follow her footsteps a few years later, it will be more painful.
So--"
Bai Shan smiled and said, "Suppose at the beginning, a monster sneaked into the leprosy village and bit my mother to death, killing her instantly. Wouldn't it be helping my mother relieve her pain?
