Eternal Night

Chapter 247
(PS: Thanks to the leader Xiao Zhao, who is still a new leader today, for the reward. I will add another chapter here. Thank you again for your support.)
There are a total of thirty or so untouchables in the entire city, which is a very small number. The entire city has a population of nearly one million, so in comparison, these thirty or so people are really too few.

Almost all the untouchables live together with other sinners and behave no differently from other sinners. They are respectful, like puppets, without any thoughts or lives of their own. They work every day and kneel down to worship monks and pure people. Unless you know their inner hearts, it is impossible to tell whether they are an untouchable or not.

Wu Xianxiao's target was the only one living alone among this group of untouchables. He was a teenager who lived alone in a small nest similar to a dog hole not far from the pure area.

When Wu Xianxiao found him, the boy was sleeping soundly, but his sleep was very light and he was very alert. When Wu Xianxiao landed nearby and deliberately stepped a little harder, the boy's eyeballs began to twitch, but he pretended to be asleep and did not get up or show any expression.

Wu Xianxiao didn't care. He just sat on the ground next to the boy and looked up at the sky. Then he actually saw the full moon and some stars that he was familiar with. Here... This world with only one continent is actually Earth?

The boy's whole body was tense, but he still maintained his sleeping posture. Wu Xianxiao was silent for a while and then said, "You are the Untouchable, right?"

The young man's body shook slightly, and then he pretended to be woken up, half stood up with sleepy eyes, and showed a stunned expression when he saw Wu Xianxiao for the first time. Then he knelt down without saying a word, and began to kowtow heavily. The first kowtow broke his forehead, and then he immediately kowtowed hard the second time. Judging from the strength, he was trying to commit suicide.

A hand held up the boy's forehead, making him unable to move no matter how hard he tried. Despair appeared in the boy's eyes. At this time, Wu Xianxiao continued, "I will not expose you, nor am I here to arrest you. Look, there is no one else except me."

The boy's heart skipped a beat. Although he lowered his head, he could still see his surroundings out of the corner of his eyes.

It was very dark here, there was no extra firelight and no noisy voices. It was obvious that there was only one person here.

Thinking of this, a hint of cruelty appeared in the boy's eyes, but feeling the unshakable power of the hand supporting his forehead, the cruelty in his eyes turned into a kind of despair.

Wu Xianxiao suddenly let go of the boy at this time. He remained sitting and said, "I've already said that I'm not here to arrest you, nor am I your enemy. I just want to chat with you."

The young man sat up, wiped the blood off his face, and just looked at Wu Xianxiao, still without saying a word.

Wu Xianxiao also looked at the boy at this time. Seeing his resolute eyes, he smiled and said, "What a good look. You are not afraid of death, so are you afraid of talking to me?"

The young man then said in a hoarse and dry voice: "What did you say? The noble pure one."

Honorable Pure One, these words seemed full of sarcasm.

Wu Xianxiao shook his head and said, "I am not a pure person. I came here just to have a casual chat with you."

"But I am just an untouchable." The young man continued with a mocking tone: "It is the most filthy thing that cannot even be looked at. The pure ones will ascend to the heavenly way. You... you are not a pure one! Are you an evil demon from outer space!?"

Wu Xianxiao immediately became interested. He asked, "Oh? Why are you sure that I am a demon from outer space? And do you know what a demon from outer space is?"

The young man immediately jumped up, but he did not run away. Instead, he carefully looked around. After confirming that there was no one around, he lowered his voice and said, "How dare you? How dare you pretend to be a pure person by being an evil demon from outer space? Once you are seen by the high-level monks, you will be exposed immediately, and you won't even be able to die!"

Wu Xianxiao smiled cheerfully and continued to ask, "Answer me first, how do you know I am a demon from outer space? And what do you know about a demon from outer space?"

The young man looked at Wu Xianxiao for a long time, and then he said, "It is described in the Buddhist scriptures that there are countless worlds. Our world of Buddhas and monks is a small thousand world, three thousand small thousand worlds make a middle thousand world, and three thousand middle thousand worlds make a big thousand world. There are countless big thousand worlds in the universe, and there are worlds outside the world. You are an evil demon from the outside world."

Wu Xianxiao nodded slightly, and the young man continued, "As for why I am sure that you are an alien demon, it is because you knew that I am untouchable, but you still contacted me. It's that simple."

Wu Xianxiao was silent for a few seconds, then smiled and said, "Why not? It's because I'm curious. As a pure person, I want to know what you untouchables are and what you want to do, so I came to you?"

The young man flatly denied it, "It's impossible. Those who can become pure are all pure and flawless in body and mind. This is a fact confirmed by Buddhist principles. They are pure and flawless and can enter the heavenly realm. Such beings, let alone coming to find us untouchables, will never come to this city again even if they know that we untouchables have appeared in this city unless they perform a great sacrifice. So you definitely can't be a pure person."

Wu Xianxiao continued to smile and said, "What if I am actually a sinner pretending to be a pure person?"

The young man looked at Wu Xianxiao as if he was a fool and said, "That's even more impossible. Although no one will examine the pure ones, this is the Buddhist cause and effect, and one must enter the heavenly way. The sinners would never dare to blaspheme like this, because this is the mark of the Buddhist principle engraved on their souls, and they can't do this. And there is another point, you come to chat with me and ask... This itself is not something that any existence in this world would do. The sinners can't do it, because they don't even have their own thoughts. The pure ones won't do it, because they only want to enter the heavenly way. The monks don't need to do it, because they know all our origins and reasons for existence. So, you must be an evil demon from outer space!" Wu Xianxiao looked up to the young man at this time. He thought for a while and asked, "Since you know that I'm an evil demon from outer space, aren't you afraid?"

"What are you afraid of?"

The young man sneered and said in a very low voice: "The so-called Buddhist principles and the so-called savior Arhat, aren't they also evil demons from outer space?"

"Huh? Arhats and these Buddhist religions came from outside?" Wu Xianxiao asked curiously.

The young man's voice just now was very low, and it was almost impossible for outsiders to know it, but Wu Xianxiao heard it and asked about it. The young man was immediately shocked, but thinking that the other party was also an alien evil demon, he gritted his teeth and said, "Yes! The archaeological discoveries in the past ten years have confirmed that Luohan is the alien evil demon!"

Wu Xianxiao frowned and said, "Is Jun Tu Bo Tan Luohan an evil demon from outer space? Isn't he the source of pollution in this world? Could it be that the source of pollution can also be directly infected from other dream worlds?"

"do not want!"

The young man immediately whispered, "Don't call that name, don't say the full name! He will sense it!"

Wu Xianxiao was stunned for a moment, but nodded obediently and said, "And what is archaeology? It's the ancient history that you Untouchables have been looking for? Can you tell me about it?"

The young boy stared at Wu Xianxiao in a daze. He totally couldn't understand why Wu Xianxiao knew so many things, even the most secret "ancient history" of those who they were not allowed to contact?

How can this be?

Although he was confused, the young man didn't know what to say for a moment, but thinking that the other party was an evil demon from outer space, and calling him Luohan also had an inexplicable meaning, he gritted his teeth and said, "Do you really want to know the truth about us untouchables?"

Wu Xianxiao nodded, and the young man immediately asked, "Why? Why are you so interested in these things? Don't the evil demons from outer space want to destroy the entire world, or take over the entire world?"

Wu Xianxiao raised his head and looked up at the sky. After a long while, he said, "I guess I just can't stand people not treating others as human beings, and I also can't stand people not treating themselves as human beings..."

"If all the people in this world are the sinners, pure people, monks, etc. that I have seen and heard, then I have nothing to worry about... Who said that reconnaissance means secretly following? I will just go to their door and beat them half to death, or even kill most of them, and the rest will naturally tell me everything."

The young man naturally didn't understand what he said, and Wu Xianxiao continued, "But I also told myself that I am also a human being, even if I am just an ordinary man or a reckless man. Precisely because I am powerful now, when facing other human beings, I must use my power carefully and prudently, so as not to become the kind of inhuman that I hate the most. So, what if it's just a chance? I came to find you..."

"I hope you can give me an explanation, a reason, or even an excuse? So that I can take all of this into consideration, so that I can calm down and only target the main culprit, and not involve too many innocent people... This is why I came to talk to you."

"Even if it's just for someone who still treats himself as a human being, I am willing to put myself in a difficult position at this time."

The boy still didn't understand, but he instinctively knew that the next words were crucial, although he himself couldn't explain why.

He looked at Wu Xianxiao and said, "We untouchables are passed down from generation to generation. There are very few of us. Only when the old untouchables die will new untouchables appear among the sinners. Our goal is to find ancient history..."

"Before the advent of Buddhist principles and the savior Arhat, the truth of this beautiful world, find the weapons left to us by the ancients, and then..."

"Expel Buddhist principles, expel Arhats!"

"Let us humans become human again!"
