Monster Tea Party

Chapter 5461 Which one to choose

"……and……"

The woodcutter spoke again, "Brother."

"If you fail next year, wouldn't it make you look ridiculous right now?"

In that case, the young scholar can still justifiably blame the black monster...

Do you think it's the black monster that's holding you back?

After all, excluding the influence of the black monster, next year...

The young scholar was not successful either.

……

The woodcutter said all the good and bad things.

Doesn't he believe that this won't make his brother do what he says?

……

The woman remained silent.

For the first time, she discovered...

The woodcutter's eloquence is quite good?

really.

My younger brother is good at studying.

Even though my brother is not very good at studying, he still has some level.

……

The young scholar was silent.

But my heart was far from being as calm as it appeared.

He cracked his knuckles.

As if wanting to crush it.

……

"younger brother."

The woodcutter did not give the young scholar much time to think.

"Don't think about it."

"Besides, the black monster made his own choice."

“It didn’t show up.”

"You should just let it go."

Let go of your obsession.

Admit your failures.

The woodcutter felt more and more...

The so-called black monster was something my younger brother made himself.

My younger brother was under too much pressure, so he created this thing to share the stress.

It is something used to vent anger when one cannot accept one's own failure.

Where is the black monster?

It's all my brother's fault.

The woodcutter was very upset.

He hadn't even noticed that there was something wrong with his brother...

He trusted his brother too much.

It was also his brother's behavior that confused him.

He never thought that his younger brother would sometimes be overwhelmed by the pressure of studying.

He had to admit...

Sometimes the elders’ words may be hard to hear…

But it makes sense.

……

"It will appear..."

The young scholar's voice was quiet, but it revealed a hint of stubbornness.

……

woodcutter:……

He shook his head slightly.

"it is good."

"Then make a promise with me."

"I'll give you one - no, three months."

The woodcutter held up three fingers and said, "It's been more than three months, and the black monster hasn't appeared. You didn't let your sister-in-law and I see the black monster..."

"Just promise us that you will forget about the black monster."

"Just pretend it never existed."

"May I?"

……

The young scholar opened his mouth slightly.

He subconsciously resisted specific deadlines.

……

"Three months."

The woodcutter stressed, “Isn’t it long enough?”

He originally only wanted to give his brother one month.

Then I thought about it and decided not to bargain with my brother, so I gave him some room for negotiation.

Just give it more time.

But there is no room for negotiation.

Three months is really long.

……

"Brother, if you don't agree..."

"Let's go to our parents' graves now."

"I told my parents that you have been bewitched by the black monster and have lost some of your sanity and become mentally ill."

The woodcutter was threatening his brother.

He knew that his brother would never agree to do this.

....
"I don't!"

The young scholar retorted subconsciously.

Very loud sound.

Because this statement is ridiculous.

My brother actually wanted to tell my parents such a ridiculous statement! ?

Is my brother crazy?!

……

"You have."

The woodcutter looked solemn and serious, "Anyway, you and I have different opinions."

"Let's go and ask our parents to judge the matter."

"Let them see what has become of their youngest—"

……

"elder brother!"

The young scholar interrupted the woodcutter. His rising and falling chest showed his intense emotions.

"Don't talk nonsense in front of my parents!"

……

"I didn't say anything nonsense."

The woodcutter looked at the young scholar and said, "I will ask you one last time."

"Do you agree or not..."

"The agreement I just mentioned?"

……

"I……"

The young scholar was so troubled that the veins on his forehead were throbbing slightly.

……

"Are you afraid?"

The woodcutter raised his eyebrows.

"Three whole months..."

"You think the black monster won't appear?"

"You can't make your sister-in-law and I see the black monster..."

"is not it?"

"You actually know in your heart that the black monster will never appear again."

"It's just your imagination."

"Because you believe, you appear."

"And now, you don't believe it."

"It wouldn't have appeared."

"is not it?"

……

"no!"

The young scholar's lips trembled for a while, and finally he shouted out.

"no!"

The young scholar even cried out at the top of his lungs.

……

The woman was a little startled.

But she said nothing.

She stood behind the woodcutter.

……

"younger brother."

The woodcutter was not affected by the young scholar's loud voice.

of course.

He was indeed a little startled.

Just a little.

His attitude was even a bit tough, "You have two choices now."

"How about making a three-month agreement with me?"

"Why don't we go to our parents' graves now."

"Tell Mom and Dad about the black monster."

"Tell your parents that you were affected by the black monster and failed the exam..."

……

"elder brother!"

The young scholar shouted again.

The elder brother not only wanted to tell his parents about the black monster, but also wanted to tell them about his failure in the exam! ?

No.

He disagrees.

The young scholar just wanted to tell his parents the good news that he had passed the imperial examination.

I didn't want my parents to know that I was tricked by a strange black monster...

……

"Tell brother."

The woodcutter remained unmoved.

"Which one do you choose?"

"hurry up."

……

"elder brother!"

The young scholar unconsciously scratched the back of his hand with his nails.

He squeezed his fingers tightly.

Shortness of breath.

His chest rose and fell violently.

He felt as if he was being lifted up and suspended in mid-air, feeling weightless and confused.

……

"quick."

The woodcutter urged the young scholar, "Tell me your answer."

"If you can't make a choice, I'll help you."

"Since you want to see the black monster so much, let's go see our parents first before you see it."

The woodcutter helped the young scholar make a decision.

"Tell Mom and Dad everything."

"This way you can do whatever you want with all matters concerning the black monster."

"Brother won't interfere with you."

……

"Let's go."

The woodcutter reached out and grasped the young scholar's hand.

He exerted force with his hands and was about to pull the young scholar away.

……

"elder brother!"

The young scholar felt as if he had been burned by a red-hot iron.

His movements and expression were somewhat exaggerated, as if he was trying to break free from the woodcutter's shackles.

……

The woodcutter did not let go.

Instead, he tightened his fingers even more.

The steps are firm.

……

"elder brother!"

The young scholar used his fingers to pry open the woodcutter's fingers.

The whole person stepped back.
