"Why, how could this happen?" Beiran looked at the golden-scaled fish in a daze, unable to believe that it was the sea monster causing trouble.

Once upon a time, when she rescued it at the beach, its eyes were still so simple and pure, without any evil thoughts in the world, but now...

Yu Ling also felt a shock in his heart. He seemed to understand the intention of this illusion for a moment, but this ray of light quickly drifted away.

"Why are you doing this?" Beiran squatted down and stared at the weak golden-scaled fish with great complexity.

"I just... don't want to be so lonely..." the golden-scaled fish murmured.

"But they are all innocent, why do you want to hurt others?" Beiran's hand holding the knife trembled. She could not accept that her temporary kindness would bring such tragic consequences. If she had not saved the golden fish,

Will there be fewer unjust souls who died in vain in this world?

The golden-scaled fish was silent for a few seconds, and said a little tiredly: "I have never hurt others... Of course, it is useless to say so much. You have saved my life, I will return it to you now."

"You..." Bei Ran's heart was in a state of confusion. She felt like she was making some futile struggles: "I'll let you go this time, and I won't do it next time. Don't do bad things again in the future."

The golden-scaled fish said calmly: "I don't want to lie to you. I don't think I'm at fault. If you are willing to let me go, the most I can do is change to another fishing village and continue to do these 'bad things' in your eyes."

"Why are you so stubborn? You live in the sea and they live in the human world. They have nothing to do with each other. Why do you want to destroy other people's originally happy lives?" Bei Ran said angrily.

"Happiness?" There was a hint of sarcasm in the golden-scaled fish's tone: "No, they are not happy at all. The people I choose all have a deep hatred for this world, even if they are not even aware of it many times.

arrive."

"What do you mean?" Bei Ran was suddenly confused.

"The same goes for me. Although you saved my life, do you know where I come from? What kind of environment did I grow up in? What have I experienced over the years? You don't know, so you see right and wrong in your eyes.

Evil, sometimes may not be true, and the judgment you get from limited information is just taken out of context..." The golden-scaled fish said slowly.

By this time, the frightened villagers in the fishing village had calmed down a lot, and they began to approach the golden fish cautiously, holding various simple weapons such as hoes and hatchets in their hands.

"With the help of the immortals, the sea monster will not survive!"

"Why does it look like the legendary golden fish?"

"What? Golden Yuan Fish! Impossible, that is the divine fish that blesses the world, how could it be a man-eating sea monster?"

The villagers were quarreling, and only the girl in blue, who had narrowly escaped death, sat silently in the corner.

Her eyes changed from scattered to focused, and she slowly picked up a wooden stick that had been left behind, and walked towards the gold-scaled fish step by step.

Yu Ling was the first to notice something unusual about this young girl. Her pale face seemed transparent, and she was so weak that she would fall down if blown by the wind. However, the girl's tight lips and cold look looked so determined.

There is still an air of gloom and hostility between his brows that cannot be resolved.

"Are you okay?" Bei Ran followed Yu Ling's gaze and was also startled by the state of the girl in blue.

The girl lowered her head and bowed respectfully, her voice still weak: "Thank you two benefactors..."

The golden-scaled fish struggling feebly on the sand suddenly laughed: "Did you see it? She will be the next me."

As soon as it finished speaking, the girl swung the wooden stick hard, with a ferocious expression as if she was dealing with an sworn enemy, and hit the golden-scaled fish hard on the head with a "bang" sound.

She was obviously just a mortal, but the power she unleashed at this moment shocked even Yu Ling.

In fact, both he and Bei Ran could stop it, but at this moment, a feeling of fate lingered in the hearts of the two of them. In just a moment of hesitation, the golden-scaled fish had its head smashed, leaving only a pile of treasures scattered on the ground.

on the ground.

"Oh my god, it really is a golden fish! So many treasures!"

"This is a gift from God. This golden fish has fallen into darkness, and the gods will not forgive it!"

"Mine, everything is mine..."

The villagers rushed forward, screaming, cursing, and laughing wildly, depicting an ugly world.

The girl in blue silently let go of her hand and let the wooden stick stained with golden blood fall to the ground. Her eyes were so calm and ruthless, and she just stood there silently.

"They are destined to gain nothing." The girl in blue said softly, and saluted Yu Ling and the others: "My benefactor, we are destined to meet again."

Yu Ling watched the girl in blue walking away, and couldn't tell what was going on in his mind. He had even foreseen the future many years later.

"How come, my pearls and my gold, why have they disappeared? Give them back to me, they are mine!"

A fisherman suddenly screamed in horror. He grabbed the most treasures by virtue of his physical strength, but everything gradually turned into sand and eventually poured down from his fingers.

"Ah, why is mine also..."

More screams rang out, and these villagers fell from ecstasy to the coldest hell in an instant. The gap between this almost made them go crazy.

Someone really went crazy. A middle-aged man frantically smashed the body of the golden-scaled fish with a hoe, and kept shouting: "The sea monster must be still causing trouble even after death. Give it back to me quickly, give back my things."

I!"

Many villagers woke up from a dream and raised their weapons to join in, as if tearing the golden-scaled fish into pieces would allow them to dig out more treasures from its belly.

"That's enough of you!" Beiran couldn't stand it any longer, and with a shock of black power, he pushed back the villagers.

She was now filled with disgust for these greedy people, and even felt uneasy about her conscience, because the words spoken by the Golden Scale Fish before his death seemed to contain too much information that she did not understand.

Beiran silently held up its broken body, feeling sour in his heart for some reason, almost on the verge of tears.

"This is just an illusion." Yu Ling comforted.

"I know...but I still feel like I did something wrong..." Beiran said in confusion.

The two ignored the crazy villagers, returned to the seaside as quickly as possible, and sent the bloody body of the golden-scaled fish into the sea.

"It's been a good journey." Bei Ran sighed.

Last time, she saved the dying golden-scaled fish, but this time, she buried it in the sea with her own hands.

The body of the golden-scaled fish was submerged into the sea water, and gradually emitted a golden light, like the morning light that first appeared on the horizon at dawn, so beautiful and clear.

This ray of golden light slowly expanded to the entire ocean, and it seemed that even the slightly undulating waves turned into a brilliant golden color. This is such a magnificent picture.

"This is..." Yu Ling couldn't help but was slightly startled. She saw a wave of waves suddenly hit the shore, and then a group of women with different appearances appeared out of thin air.

Their faces were full of shock and confusion, and they seemed to be confused about their current situation.

"How could this happen...Is Xiao Jin dead?" The group of women stared blankly at the golden ocean.

"You are..." Beiran's heart suddenly started beating wildly, and she even felt a little dizzy because she had already guessed the identities of these people.

"Did you kill Xiao Jin?" A woman suddenly noticed the golden blood on Bei Ran's hand, and immediately her body softened and she almost collapsed to the ground.

Her companions immediately exploded, and a tall woman asked with tears in her eyes: "Why are you doing this? How did Xiao Jin hinder human beings? It has never hurt anyone, but people are greedy for the strange things in its belly."

The rare treasure has been cruelly pursued and killed, causing it to hide in the depths of the ocean. Why is this?!"

"I didn't..." Beiran said with some difficulty: "Are you all the girls who were kidnapped by it back then?"

"It's not kidnapped, it saved us... Anyway, living in this ugly human world is just a continuation of misfortune. On the contrary, after coming to the deep sea, it was the happiest time in my life." A woman in a yellow dress said quietly.

.

Bei Ran's heart was suddenly filled with great guilt and confusion: "Why...it didn't say it earlier."

"Don't you have your own judgment about right and wrong, good and evil? Those who believe in it will believe it no matter whether it says it or not. For those who don't believe it, no matter what it says, it will be useless." The tall woman said coldly.

Beiran looked at the boundless golden sea, and the little ripples of light were just like the golden scales on its body.

But soon, all the scenes faded away like the tide, and Wanxiang Bridge appeared in front of the two of them again.
