After finally catching up with them, I slowed down and complained, "Why are you running so fast?"

"He said that we can arrive before dawn if we hurry up, so..." Chu Ying said without slowing down.

Humph! If we go slower, we might be able to go faster and be more comfortable.

But I swallowed all these words. Looking at the winding path, I couldn't help but wonder: "Is this the shortcut you mentioned?"

Chen Tianxu said without looking back: "Yes, I said it would be difficult to leave..."

As expected, our decision to take this path was fundamentally wrong. Not only did we suffer, but we also took the trouble to do it.

In the dark night illuminated by snow, the stars in the sky are shining, as if thousands of eyes are watching me. The woods are getting denser and thicker, and the snow is getting thicker and thicker. When I walk on this path, the road and roadside are frozen.

There are more and more animals, including quick-frozen squirrels, frozen woodpeckers, and even mountain rats with stiff limbs.

But these have lost their breath of life, and even the leaves of the trees on both sides have changed their color due to the cold. I wonder if this tree has also frozen to death.

Along the way, Chu Ying was frightened from time to time by corpses rolling out of the snow under her feet, and sometimes she was tripped over. She screamed repeatedly along the way, shaking the snow off many trees.

Later, she simply stepped on Chen Tianxu's footsteps and stopped touching the soft snow.

"How many lives have been taken away by this heavy snow..." Chen Tianxu couldn't help but sigh.

"How many lives have you sacrificed to survive?" I pushed away a stiff mountain rat at my feet and said nonchalantly.

The mountain rat in front of me died very strangely. Its limbs were still in a running posture, as if it had been frozen to death in an instant.

"Me?" Chen Tianxu pointed at his nose and asked with wide eyes.

"Well, as long as you are alive, you have no right to blame others, because you are robbing lives every moment."

"Are you kidding?" Chen Tianxu stopped in disbelief and looked back at me: "Am I plundering?"

"Don't stop, we're on our way." Chu Ying pushed him and scolded him.

Chen Tianxu turned around helplessly and continued walking forward.

"In your opinion, only things that can be seen, touched, have flesh and blood, and can run and jump are life, right?"

"This..." Chen Tianxu was stunned.

"Life, life, since it wants to live, it must devour the lives of others."

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

"Is it wrong? That's right. If you don't kill, you might as well just die. Plants are alive too. They will be afraid and will die. What I hate the most is those who keep saying they have good intentions and cannot bear to kill.

Aren’t all lives the same? Aren’t they devouring other lives every meal to extend their own lives?”

"No..." Chen Tianxu wanted to say something else.

"Okay, I'll just assume that those that can't move don't count, so they don't exist if you can't see them? No matter whether it's humans or animals, no one can live without water. There are many microorganisms in the water that we can't see.

Oh, they should be able to move, right?" Chen Tianxu was stunned by me and was speechless for a while.

Chu Ying laughed out loud: "My dear minister, don't play debate with her. She can make you alive even if you can't do it. I think you should just admit defeat."

"Haha... He lost from the beginning. Her idea is very strange. I guess this theory will piss off a lot of eminent monks." Chen Tianxu said.

"It's a long road, just bickering and passing the time. I won't ask for trouble. It must be boring to mess with some eminent monk!" I smiled lightly at Chen Tianxu: "Speaking of which, you have

Don’t have any stories? It’s good to listen to them while walking, so that you and I don’t end up bickering.”
