The character monologue of The Ancient Covenant

People always have expectations for the strong.

Expect strong men to solve complex and heavy difficulties with an understatement, subvert traditions from time to time, challenge the authority of the superiors with overwhelming strength, and blast enemies into ashes in the blink of an eye.

I am a strong person. A long time ago, many times, I did many great things that were in line with people’s expectations, so-called gratification and grudges. But a long time later - that is, now, even though I have the qualifications to be a strong person. The increase continues unabated, but it is no longer possible to kill at will or behead at will.

Most of the time, many things can be done easily by me, but I have to hesitate for a while before taking any action, or even hesitate before taking any action. Many people are hesitant about me. I felt unable to understand and forgive my decisive behavior pattern, and criticized me for being cowardly, not decisive enough, and too considerate of others.

I don’t care what others think about me, but I don’t want to deceive the world and steal my reputation. What I must declare is that I... am not as kind as you think. No matter what the reason for my hesitation is when I tell you, it is just an excuse. In fact, I just "don't want to care".

Why?

Because I have lost interest.

In the past, I have destroyed the most powerful enemies, the most ferocious beasts, the most arrogant groups, and the most solid fortresses.

But so what?

I have also seen the noblest sentiments, the greatest heroes, the most vicious conspiracies, and the most despicable villains.

But so what?

Once upon a time, I obtained the most precious secret treasure, the sharpest weapon, the largest property, and the most amazing martial arts.

But so what?

My ancient soul has experienced countless ups and downs and great sorrows and pains. When my enthusiasm for saving the world and my cynical sadness have been obliterated by endless reincarnations, shouldn't I be numb? Can't I get tired of it?

I can’t find any reason to be interested in those so-called exciting things, so I would rather be a coward, so I allow those arrogant and ignorant weaklings to act like idiots in front of me. Being imbecile, I allowed those capable people with ulterior motives to secretly and smoothly carry out their long-planned conspiracy.

If you want to conquer the world, go ahead!

Go ahead if you want to enslave humans!

To put it bluntly, it’s my fault...

I don’t think there is anything wrong with my extremely meaningless mentality at all. After all, I have experienced everything in this world. Too much and too long. The elements of the entire material world interact with each other, and I have already seen through the operation mode of the whole body. I can't predict anyone's fate, but I will try my best to avoid having a major impact on anyone's destiny - no matter good or bad, I don't want to be involved in all the joys and sorrows of success or failure.

I just want to be responsible for myself.

It sounds easy to say, but just like that, I am beyond my capabilities. I have been in this world for a long time.

A long time...a long time...a long time...

That is a long time beyond the imagination of ordinary people. However, I did not witness the birth of this world. I’m not sure whether the God of Creation is a man or a woman, and I’m even less sure whether light vs. darkness when Hongmeng first opened. The only thing I can be sure of is that things must have had a beginning, but no one can know more.

But I know enough things. For example, the orcs are not native to this land.

Orcs are a species that only appeared after I became an adult. Their arrival was like meteors flying from the sky, without any reason or warning. They replaced the original overlord of this land in the most barbaric way. .

The original overlord of this land was the dragon.

Yes, dragon. They are dressed in sequins, chew tobacco, talk like stewed eggs, and pick their noses with their tails from time to time. In my opinion, they are no different from Taiwanese, and they are the most vulgar and intolerable species.

I hate dragons very much. I killed several of them when I was young. Many people can’t understand how a unicorn can kill a dragon? In fact, it is very simple. My beautiful horn can be the most compassionate spiritual healing or the most deadly poison. Even though the dragon's heart is stronger than the heart of other creatures, it still cannot withstand my graceful piercing.

The first batch of orcs were called the original ancestors by later generations. After the original ancestors came, killing dragons was a normal thing, but before that, killing dragons was a big deal, except that it would lead to the rise of the dragon clan. In addition to the siege, there were also rumors that he would be sent to heaven.

Many stupid dragons seek revenge from me, but they either fail to catch up with me or are killed by me. As a result, more and more stupid dragons die in my horns, and other spiritual beasts even fight for me. He was nicknamed "The Poison-Horned Dragon Slayer". It was obvious that dragons were not popular in this land.

Of course, the dragon clan cannot just play with me like this, otherwise they would not be able to dominate this land. My incident alarmed the dragon kings from all over the world, and they sent their most powerful protector, the "three-headed tyrannosaurus" To deal with me, that guy was six times as big as me. He had three mouths that could spit out ice, fire, and sulfuric acid. The most difficult thing was that he also had three hearts. I fought with him for half a year before we finally found him in the snowy mountains. The top pierces the last heart.

But the matter did not end there. The three-headed tyrannosaurus had the qualifications of a dragon priest, and his heart was brave enough. Before he died, he drew his energy and cursed me. I was exhausted and couldn't escape at all. He watched as his body hardened into metal and turned into a weapon.

I couldn’t move, but my mind was very clear. I felt very helpless. The heavy snow gradually buried me. I couldn’t help but feel sad when I thought about how long it would take to see the sun again. I missed my original appearance and was filled with sadness. , at this moment, I suddenly turned into a unicorn again.

Damn! It turns out that this curse can change with me...

If I want to be a weapon, I can change it into a weapon. If I want to be a unicorn, I can change back to my original form.

I’m not sure what the meaning of this curse is, but I don’t think the purpose of the three-headed tyrannosaurus cursing me is to give me the ability to transform. Of course, I also doubt whether the three-headed tyrannosaurus will curse me because of this. He fought with me for half a year and eventually fell in love with me, but that kind of plot was too pointless. Anyway, I am very grateful to the three-headed tyrannosaurus, because no dragon can recognize me if I become a weapon.

For a long time after that, I fell into a deep sleep in the form of a weapon. It was not until the orcs arrived and the dragon-slaying battle began that I deliberately lay down in the middle of the road and let the orcs pick it up.

How can you miss the Dragon Slaying Battle? Kill a few more dragons so as not to let down the kindness of the three-headed tyrannosaurs.

◎◎◎

My weapon is a double-edged sword with a handle in the middle and blades extending from the top and end. It looks like two long swords. The swords are tied together up and down.

The dragon-slaying war lasted for hundreds of years. I was handed over to the hands of one orc hero after another, drinking the blood of countless dragons, and my terrifying sharpness won me the "Ferocious Demon Slaying" ” title, I have never had any special feelings about these bloody things. It wasn’t until I cut off the head of the last Dragon King that an inexplicable sense of boredom took over my heart.

That night, the orcs had a great carnival to celebrate their complete dominance of this land. While the orcs were tired and asleep, I changed back to my original appearance and traveled thousands of miles away.

As a winged unicorn, I can fly wherever I want with my wings spread.

Going straight to the deepest part of the jungle, I returned to the hometown of all unicorns. I had not seen my unicorns for more than five hundred years. They were just like before, crouching under the poplar trees and lying on the ground. Among the flowers, for this peach blossom garden that is like spring all year round, even the outside world can't affect anything.

My kindred spirits did not welcome my return. On the contrary, they actually stayed away!

I think it’s because the taste is too strong! Orcs stink like shit. After hanging out with orcs for so long, my body must not smell any better.

Standing by the hot spring pool, I was about to jump in and take a thorough bath. Looking at the water filled with light smoke, I saw a shocking reflection.

I will never forget that reflection.

That reflection of me.

That’s not me

That’s not the snow-white reflection of a unicorn.

That is... the reflection of a zebra.

◎◎◎

When did I get so many horizontal lines on my body?

I don’t understand, but my heart is full of shame.

Unicorns are the most clean-loving creatures in the world. They are not allowed to be contaminated by any dust, not to mention there are so many stupid lines on the surface of their bodies, and they still walk around in front of their kind. , I was so embarrassed that I jumped out of the hot spring with my face flushed, dived to the deepest point, and came back to the surface again, going back and forth dozens of times, swimming like crazy.

But no matter how heroic the swimming style is, the color of those lines is still chaotic, showing no signs of fading away.

It can’t be washed off, right? good! It doesn't matter, I'll play with you! Rubbing on the sand, walking through the grass, and even rolling in the mud, I tried everything I could do except skinning. In the end, I even attracted lightning and thunder to kill myself, but it was all useless. These lines were like restraints. Refuse to let me go.

When all my efforts were in vain, I calmed down and told myself that if I don’t understand the nature of these stripes first, no matter how many attempts I make, it will just be a trick.

My spirit was at its most stable, and my spiritual awareness was at its widest. All the phenomena in the material world were diluted at this moment, leaving only the spiritual waves and magnetic field that were extremely clear. I saw Heavy waves of blood hit the sky and covered the earth, and I smelled the putrid smell rising into the sky.

I finally understand where these dark lines come from!

Those are blood stains.

It is a bloodstain that has been dried for a long time.

It is a blood stain that turns from red to black.

It’s the bloodstains of the dragon clan that I’ve been drinking for hundreds of years!

I heard the wailing of the dragons and saw the resentment of the dragons. The bloodstains one after another are not curses nor retribution. These are all cause and effect. Forms originate from the heart, form inside and outside, reflect the changes in my state of mind, record my killing years, outline the surface of my body, and faithfully represent my sins.

To deny these bloodstains is to deny my past. I shouldn’t do that, but I choose to do that.

After spending twenty years traveling across thousands of mountains and rivers, I climbed to the outer sky, crossed the sea of ??clouds, and found the rumored magic weapon "Purification Spirit" that can purify the soul at the border of the material world. mirror".

After passing through the Dispirit Mirror, I successfully returned to my original snow-white appearance, while those dark stripes remained on the other end of the mirror, giving birth to a unicorn darker than midnight.

The unicorn calls himself "Miao".

It said: It will follow me forever.

Always... some things are inherently unfair

Geniuses and idiots, rich and poor families, and men and women.

Since the beginning of history, except for some special matriarchal societies, physical disadvantages have always made women inferior to men, accepting unequal treatment and depriving them of their dignity as human beings. As a tool to carry on the family line, as a slave for washing and cooking, as a foil for vanity and showing off, or even as a part of property.

Forgive me for speaking so harshly, but as a woman, of course I will be angry at the oppression of men for a long time, but I also have to admit that when the world judges heroes by their fists, women There is nothing wrong with being synonymous with the weak, but fortunately things will always improve. After the industrial revolution, machines replaced labor and took away many menial jobs that were originally required by men. On the surface, this change promoted mankind towards a more comfortable life. But in my eyes, this is a great opportunity for the realization of gender equality.

When men can no longer dominate the workplace with their physical advantages, when the physical requirements of working conditions are significantly revised downwards.

Only women can truly stand on the same starting point as men.

I am very happy that I grew up in an era of equal rights for men and women. Although many aspects still need to be strengthened, such as children taking their father's surname, and being unable to go home for New Year's Eve dinner after getting married, however, compared with A century or fifty years ago, women's social status has been greatly improved. At the very least, we have a fair chance to compete with men.

My father is a famous martial arts master in China. I believe he would like to have a boy to inherit what he has learned. But unfortunately, my sister and I are both girls, although my father has never revealed this. It's a pity, but I know that he must have some degree of loneliness in his heart.

I understand that my father’s love for us will not increase or decrease because of our gender. I also know that no matter what I prove, I can’t comfort my father, but I just don’t want to lose to a boy. So since I was little, I have ranked first in homework tests and raced to be the champion. Even in the martial arts gym run by my father, I, the so-called eldest lady, never lost to the so-called senior brother in martial arts competitions.

I told myself that when I grow up, I will never rely on men, and I will be an independent and successful woman.

However, holding that philosophy does not mean that I don’t need a man. On the contrary, I will not deny the importance of a partner at all. If the final result is to be alone for the rest of your life, then no matter how successful you are, it will not be meaningful.

Many students cannot understand why I like Tuzhen. In their opinion, Tuzhen has no advantages that can defeat me.

That may be true, but it is too superficial.

Let us return to the basics of the soul and ask a question that the master of psychology Freud still did not understand until his death - what do women want?

Want money? Want a brand name? Want to be beautiful? Want to go shopping and watch movies every day?

Yes, we all want those things, but when I can satisfy these desires by myself, what else do I want?

I want an honest and reliable guy.

Yes, Liang Tuzhen, an honest and reliable guy. I am Yumo.

My personality is just like my name.

Silent and withdrawn, serious and calm.

I hate nonsense, and I hate unnecessary emotions even more. My face always seems to be covered with a layer of frost, making it difficult for people to get close to me, and I refuse to let people get close.

My ideas have clear right and wrong, and I implement them without any doubt. I don’t need to explain my actions. I am willing to take full responsibility for the harm I have caused. Responsibility, even if it cannot be made up for, even if no one agrees with it, I will still not give up the justice I uphold.

The Yue Shi tribe is born with the talent of reading minds. Ordinary people cannot lie to us. Because of that, my tribe is generally engaged in judicial and public duties. We help the weak and help the weak, and see through the hidden things. The truth behind the surface mystery is to maintain the general social order. In addition, it also skillfully balances the conflicts between various forces among the ancient survivors.

The damage that the ancient remnants can cause to the world is terrible. Crisis is always brewing, and incidents happen at any time. When the situation disrupts the general operation of society, the Holy See will come out to stop it. For countless generations, the Holy See has eliminated many conflicts in this way, but it has also sown a lot of dissatisfaction. Hatred continues to accumulate, and one day it will get out of hand, causing a full-scale confrontation between humans and the ancient relics.

World peace cannot be entrusted to the Holy See alone.

If the matter could be resolved before the Holy See intervened, the situation would be much simpler.

Having seen through the hidden worries of the future, from a long time ago, the Yue Shi Clan shuttled among various ethnic groups to appease various conflicts by various means. As the candidate to be the next head of the Yuezhi tribe, the education I have received since I was sensible has not only required me to learn how to lead my tribe, but also how to coordinate various ethnic groups.

In order to maintain a stable and stable development of a win-win situation for mankind and the ancient relics, both the Yue Shi Clan and I can sacrifice everything.

If the sacrifice must involve other people... then I will consider it carefully.

Once, I deceived and sacrificed someone in order to achieve my goal.

Although he was fine later, I could not stop feeling guilty about him for a day.

Out of helplessness, time and time again, I used him intentionally or unintentionally.

He never had any strong backlash against this.

I can't read his thoughts, but I know he doesn't care what I do to him.

Because of this.

When I realized it, all the guilt I felt towards him had turned into good feelings, and I couldn’t help myself...

※※※ "Without power, you are nothing."

That is what my mother reminds us three brothers most.

The names of my two older brothers are "Da Chang" and "Da Sheng" in order, and my name is "Da Jun". If there are any younger siblings in the future, that guy's name will be "Da Jun". group".

Our naming pattern reveals my mother’s strong persistence in winning. The fact that a woman can be evaluated as “win even to the death” by the outside world is enough to prove how strong her desire to win is, but she is not born with it. This is the case, but it must be so. Our family is one of the five major families that have the power to rule the Bali clan. There are fierce internal conflicts among each other. My mother leads the family as a female. If she did not have awesome personality traits, she would have been annexed by the other four major families. .

I admit that she is a successful leader, but she is definitely not a successful mother or wife. Whether it is my father or our three brothers, opening their eyes every day is endless training, forever. They are all preparing for victory.

Exercise projects are difficult and often beyond our capabilities. If we do well, we should do it, but if we do poorly, we will be damned. My mother has never learned how to be gentle and complimentary, and speaks bitterly and harshly. mean. When I was very young, my dad ran away from home because he couldn't stand her arrogance. Although my mom didn't show it, we could all feel that she was sad.

But my father’s departure did not teach my mother a lesson. In fact, she intensified her efforts. In addition to rigorous training, she also wanted us three brothers to fight to the death, killing each other like enemies. cut down.

Although I am the youngest, my fighting qi cultivation is the highest, because I am the destiny inheritor of Burning Sea Halberd. Even if I practice lying down, I am stronger than most people practicing while hanging. My mother stipulated that the person who loses the most in a fight must be punished, so I kept suppressing my fighting spirit to fight with my two brothers. Otherwise, they would have no chance of winning.

But how could such a child’s trick be hidden from my mother?

The first few times she turned a blind eye, but then she became more and more angry. She secretly launched moves to help the two brothers attack me. The fierce offensive forced me. It's hard to hold back, it's like a tiger coming out of the gate, it's full force, it explodes with a loud bang.

As a result, I blinded Da Chang in one eye, and I beat Da Sheng into a cripple...

And I was only eleven years old that year...

I hate my mother so much for forcing me like this.

I also hate why my dad left us alone.

So I left that home, so I didn’t want to be a survivor of the ancient times.

Fuck you Bali! Fuck you Burning Sea Halberd! Fuck you power!

I don’t want anything! Did you hear that? Overlord Otina!

So what if it’s nothing? I don't want anything! The vast majority of foreigners thought that both my parents were dead and that I was the only one left by my grandfather. Even the Tuowei people themselves believed this.

But in fact - that is pure misinformation!

I am not surprised at all that this was said. Although I don’t want to admit it, my grandfather is really committed to denying the existence of my father "Shimada Masahiro".

My father is undoubtedly a good man, and he works very hard. However, it is a pity that his abilities in all aspects are too mediocre. Even if he only sleeps for one hour a day and practices hard, he will not accumulate as much in the end. The result is still far from the "minimum standard as a leader" required by my grandfather.

After numerous tests and failures, my grandfather ordered his father’s inheritance rights to be deprived of, and considered it a shame to the Shimada family, removing his name from the family tree.

After I was born, my father was sent to a neighboring country to take charge of a simple branch, forever separated from the core of family power.

It is not difficult for me to understand my grandfather’s good intentions. As the leader of the largest clan in the world, of course he must appoint talents. However, I cannot agree with my grandfather’s exclusion of my father, and even ordered my father not to be with me. It was as if my father was suffering from some kind of incurable infectious disease.

Of course, there is no room for my interference in this matter. Standing in front of Grandpa, I was not allowed to express any other opinions other than nodding in agreement.

I only have the obligation to accept.

Since I was a child, I have been locked in a room of more than 200 square meters, and the best teachers in each subject have taken turns to help me with classes. Unless I complete the elite basic courses designated by my grandfather, I will not be able to attend classes. Never have the right to step outside for the rest of your life.

This room is not only the most complete classroom, but also the strictest prison, and I may be the youngest but most noble prisoner in the history of the Tuoyi tribe. The heavy civil and military courses make me breathless. , all knowledge about the outside world can only be obtained through textbooks. I have never touched any soil or seen any sky.

My young heart yearned for freedom. When I was four years old, I tried my best to spend a month digging a tunnel to escape without being discovered, but I failed. The nails were dug out and they were still missing.

Later I learned that the absconding operation that I thought was secret was actually under the control of the adults, and they remained silent simply because the room was located two hundred meters deep underground.

It’s a joke to dig it out.

During that tense childhood, I was not allowed to have fun or have fun. I could only focus on practice and study. All the courses were so boring and boring, and they were only captured by spy satellites. Amlet's life record can relieve my brain nerves a little bit.

Yes, Ou Dajun.

This is the inheritor of the Burning Sea Halberd who is destined to compete with me.

This low-level and vulgar person is born to be rebellious.

Although he also grew up in a persecuted environment, I envy him very much.

I envy him that he can roll on the grass and run wildly on the beach.

I envy him for roaring loudly when he is happy and crying when he is sad.

Looking at the tidbits of his life, sometimes I feel that the outcome of the eternal war is not that important.

Sometimes, I feel that the teachings of my grandfather and teachers are not worth worrying about.

What really matters is...

What really matters is...

I...can I say a few words to you? Amret.

Please...

Just one sentence... The past is like a song, people hum it no matter what.

As he thought about it, Liang Tuzhen began to smile unconsciously on his face. Guan Xiaolei, who was sitting next to him, saw this situation and asked in confusion: "Tuzhen, what are you crazy about?"

"Go! Who is crazy about you!" Liang Tuzhen competed. He gestured solemnly: "I'm telling you! This life..."

"How is life?" Guan Xiaolei said with her head on her hands and her eyes blinked.

Liang Tuzhen cleared his throat and said seriously: "It's like a box of matches. It would be foolish to treat it too seriously, but it would be too dangerous to ignore it."

"So? What should we do?"

Liang Tuzhen thought for a while, shook his head and said: "I don't know!"

Guan Xiaolei was a little dumbfounded: "Then you What I just said are just nonsense."

"Of course not!" Liang Tuzhen looked out the window and said seriously: "It's just that there are no standards for things in this world. The answer is."

Guan Xiaolei said with a smile: "So we just need to ask questions?"

"That's right.

Hey! How would you know? "

Guan Xiaolei said angrily: "Because you told me a long time ago, and you said everything is doomed. ”

The simple man said unexpectedly: “I didn’t expect you to remember it very clearly!” "

"It's ordinary, do you still think everything is doomed? "

Touching the jade finger in his pocket that he forgot to give to Mr. Guan, Liang Tuzhen suddenly realized something in his heart and said lightly: "Yes, it is all destined..." Together with me and you Inside, everything is doomed... It took me a year to hand over this episode, and I am quite thick-skinned.

To all my friends who are still willing to wait for this story, please accept it. My deepest respect, you may curse me day and night, but I hope you understand that I am really sorry.

If I had to choose one word to describe this past year, I would choose "empty". /p>

Because last year was a year of idleness for me, with nothing good to show and nothing to regret, I quit my job at the end of June. The original reason was of course that I wanted to concentrate on writing and see if I could leave. To end this story, I didn’t write much, but all the money was spent.

It’s a tragic warning story!

Forget it, let’s talk about these scandals during the Chinese New Year. It’s very unlucky, let’s talk about this episode!

Most of the old friends who have watched the preview will complain: Why does Liang Tuzhen only appear in the second half of the episode? This problem has been often discussed by readers since the first season. If you take out the whip, you can't blame me. He is an invincible character. He will only destroy the balance of the battlefield all day long. If the scene follows him, there won't be many battles to write about.

You probably have it. I have noticed that Liang Tuzhen mostly plays idiots, and I also noticed that you like to watch him act idiots. In fact, it is not impossible to let him play throughout the whole book. I have seriously considered following the good example. After all, this book is for you. Look, my opinion doesn't really matter, maybe give it a try in episode 10, but then "Ancient Covenant" will become a real funny book.

Not many people will criticize me. The writing style, but those who are picky all point to the same point - too many pronouns are used, making it very difficult to watch. Improving this shortcoming has become the biggest effort in these episodes. By this episode, it can be said that it has been completed, and there are fewer pronouns. , only one of the ancient names and common names will be used, I believe that there will no longer be confusion. As for readers who like pronouns, please forgive me, it will be less burdensome to write the script after simplification.

The so-called trinity theory refers to the unity of time, the unity of characters, and the unity of scenes. Although the novel is not a script, I never like stories with quick storyboards. This episode is a special case. I am running around everywhere, even when I am abroad. Forget it, running to a different world goes against my creative philosophy. Fortunately, I finally brought Liang Tuzhen back to campus. He has not returned to this scene for a long time. After all, he is a student council president. How can he not do his job properly? I hope he can help Xiaolei get more points, but there are some miscellaneous things!

Thank you for your support. I will work hard to improve my writing speed and speed up the story rhythm. I know you are disappointed with me, but please don’t despair. !
