Monster Tea Party

Chapter 5439 is all right
Great.

My brother is fine.

Thinking of what the owner of the house said before...

The woodcutter was still a little uneasy.

"younger brother."

The woodcutter withdrew his hand.

"You can tell your brother now..."

The woodcutter's voice paused.

“This time you…”

“Why such a big reaction?”

"Of course I know this exam is very important."

The woodcutter added hastily.

"I also know that you have been preparing hard for a long time."

As a woodcutter living under the same roof, he could see the young scholar's efforts very clearly.

But he was really confused...

He felt something was wrong.

Based on his understanding of his brother...

"You are not that easy..."

The woodcutter thought about the appearance of the young scholar he had just seen in the house, "He is a person who has given up on himself."

"I thought……"

"Even if you fail this exam, you will be disappointed, lost, and sad..."

"But you'll cheer up soon enough."

“You’ll work harder.”

"You will tell your brother..."

"You will definitely pass the exam next time."

The woodcutter always thought that his brother would do this.

did not think of……

He doesn't understand.

He really doesn't understand.

Is it because he doesn't know his brother well enough?

Or did I underestimate the importance of this exam to my brother?

……

"Have I never understood you well enough?"

Although he was reluctant to think so, the woodcutter still couldn't help asking.

……

The young scholar stared at the woodcutter blankly.

For a long time...

The young scholar shook his head.

"no……"

The young scholar's voice was hoarse.

"Brother, you know me very well."

"if……"

The young scholar's lips trembled slightly, "I will do as you say..."

"It was just a failure."

"Can't keep me down for long."

"Back then, in order to get the Master to accept me..."

“I failed several times.”

“I didn’t give up.”

“This exam is very important.”

“I’ve worked hard for so many years…”

“I am very ambitious…”

"But I also know that the Master has told me time and time again..."

“On the list…”

"It's hard."

"I am mentally prepared..."

……

"Why then?"

The woodcutter didn't understand.

Since my brother has thought it through clearly, why...

"I was surprised when I found you."

Thinking of the lifeless young scholar at that time, the woodcutter still felt a little scared.

"I've never seen you like that."

……

“Was I ugly?”

The young scholar asked softly.

……

"very ugly."

The woodcutter nodded, "Very embarrassed."

“It’s like it’s lost its vitality.”

"You scared my brother."

……

The young scholar raised his hands to cover his face.

Ah.

What a shame.

……

"if?"

An idea suddenly occurred to the woodcutter.

"Did you just say if?"

"What does if mean?"

……

The young scholar slowly put down his hand.

in case……

The young scholar grinned.

Like laughing.

But it sounded more like crying.

……

"elder brother."

The young scholar's voice was a little vague.

"That kid is right."

"Aunt, sister-in-law..."

“They are both right.”

……

Ok?
The woodcutter was stunned.

What do you mean?
"younger brother?"

"what are you saying?"

"Who is that kid?"

"What did your aunt and sister-in-law say was right?"

The more the woodcutter listened, the more confused he became.

She is both a child, an aunt, and a sister-in-law...

What is the young scholar talking about?
……

"elder brother."

The smile on the young scholar's face grew even wider.

For some unknown reason, the woodcutter felt that the young scholar was more like crying.

……"younger brother……"

A look of worry appeared on the woodcutter's face.

"In the end what happened?"

"Tell brother."

"Are you in trouble?"

"Brother will help you solve it."

The woodcutter puffed out his chest.

……

The young scholar was stunned.

Then shook his head.

"My brother can't solve it."

"is my problem."

……

"your problem?"

The woodcutter became more and more confused. "What's your problem?"

In the eyes of the woodcutter, the younger brother is the most powerful person.

How could there be a problem?
The young one looked up.

Seemed to smile.

“…What the child saw was real.”

……

A very confusing sentence.

At least that's what the woodcutter heard.

....
"What's true?"

The woodcutter became a little impatient because of the vague uneasiness in his heart.

"Please explain clearly."

"younger brother!"

The woodcutter raised his voice.

He was becoming increasingly impatient.

What on earth is this?

Spoken vaguely and unclearly...

Isn't this frustrating?

……

The young scholar pursed his lips.

"...a black monster..."

Finally, he made a sound.

……

"what?"

The woodcutter asked subconsciously.

He saw the young scholar open his mouth.

Probably said something.

But he didn't hear clearly.

He moved closer to the young scholar.

"what did you say?"

"I did not hear it clearly."

"younger brother."

"Can you say that again."

The woodcutter urged the young scholar anxiously.

The answer is right in front of you.

Just a little bit...

This made the woodcutter almost crazy.

……

The young scholar looked the woodcutter in the eyes.

He opened his mouth.

The woodcutter immediately became absorbed in the matter.

Face slightly tilted.

Ears pricked up.

……

"...a black monster."

……

What?

The woodcutter was not sure whether he heard clearly what the young scholar said.

"Black……"

"Monster?"

The woodcutter repeated with a somewhat strange look the few words he had heard from his brother.

What is this?
what! ?

An idea suddenly occurred to the woodcutter.

He remembered!
He said, why did he feel familiar with these strange words?
this is not……

"Your sister-in-law's brother's-"

"what!"

The woodcutter figured it all out.

"The child you just mentioned..."

"You mean the child from your sister-in-law's brother's family!?"

……

The young scholar nodded.

……

The woodcutter swallowed.

"The black monster..."

"That's what the kid said."

"He said he saw a black monster in your study..."

The woodcutter muttered quickly.

At that time, none of the adults believed what the child said.

after all……

How could the black monster be real?

Especially appearing in a young scholar's study?
The young scholar knew nothing yet.

A face full of calmness.

They naturally judged the child's words to be false.

The child must have seen it wrong.

……

and many more!

The woodcutter suddenly opened his eyes wide.

He finally reacted!
What the young scholar meant was...

"You mean what that kid said... about seeing a black monster? Is that true?!"

How can it be? !
The woodcutter retorted subconsciously.

How could it be... true...?

……

The young scholar's expression did not change.

He nodded slowly.

"it is true."

……

The young scholar's voice came to my ears, close yet far away...

The woodcutter reached out and rubbed his ears hard.
