Chapter three hundred and twentieth: if nothing happens
Jiaomo disappeared.
She disappeared suddenly, not long after parting with Mao Yuejun. That day they rested in a town. According to the usual practice, Jiao Mo and Wen Ying lived in the same room, while Xie Zhe and Han Zhang lived in the same room. They woke up the next day
Come, Mrs. Jiaomo disappeared without a trace. Wenying thought she woke up early to buy some food for everyone as usual. But after waiting for a long time, until the sun rose high, Mrs. Jiaomo did not show up.
Xie Zhe was a little worried, worrying about what kind of trouble she would get into. Such concerns were normal. Although the town was considered safe, at least in broad daylight, no one dared to attack a capable "monster" like Mrs. Jiaomo. But it was hard to say.
, after all, Wuyongshi has already released such dangerous news, and Jiaomo still acts alone, which is really ill-considered.
Rather, they all lacked consideration and failed to think of the situation she might face.
They couldn't wait any longer. Before lunch, several people immediately set out to look for traces of Jiao Mo. In a town with a lot of people, they could feel a little more relieved and went separately. Xie Zhe asked about the nearby breakfast shop, and naturally there was no one there.
I’ve seen it before; Wenying and Hanshang sniffed the breath and thought
They tracked Jiao Mo's whereabouts, but found that they couldn't do it at all. She seemed to have deliberately concealed the path she had taken. At noon, the street became lively again, and when there were more people, the smell became even more difficult to identify. Even in the guest room
, Wenying could only smell a faint smell of the sea.
Then again...
Madam Jiaomo, does she really have her own aura?
They are sharks, so they are somewhat different from humans and other terrestrial monsters. And being together day and night makes them relax their vigilance, and they do not firmly remember the breath of Jiaomo. This is too strange, no matter how they think about it, no matter how they think about it, Yingying and Hanshang will remember it.
They couldn't remember it either. If Jiao Mo appeared again, they would probably be able to remember the familiar smell again, but she really disappeared without any warning.
Is it a sign... maybe there is. They began to recall Jiao Mo's behavior these days. In their memory, she seemed to have become a little taciturn and had difficulty concentrating. She often had to call her a few more times to come back to her senses. She occasionally
It will be like this,
So the three of them didn't take it to heart. To put it bluntly, it was because they were thinking about Utsuki-kun's words. Several people took turns to persuade her not to get too entangled in this issue. No one would spurn her. No matter who it was.
If you come to your door, they can deal with it.
But she still left. Investigating the reasons, these were the only things they could think of.
At night, they returned to their residence without finding anything. The three of them gathered in the girls' room in a tacit understanding, and no one spoke first. After looking for someone for a day, they were all thirsty. There was just tea on the table, and they
I don't even feel like falling down.
"Where...will she go?"
Finally, Han Chang spoke first.
"Didn't I say that there's nothing to be afraid of...Why doesn't she understand?"
Xie Zhe sighed lightly and said, "Maybe she thinks that we are the ones who don't understand."
"...How can I see it?"
"Mrs. Jiaomo... is a rare kind person, even more humane than many human beings. She chose to leave, and I tend to understand it in a good direction. If I think about the worst, my leg was injured by Wuyonglan's weapon, he
Now he can keep track of my movements at any time. Therefore, it is easy for him to provide information to those who want to capture the sharks. So for Madam, the safest way is of course to stay away from me. In this way, trouble will only fall on us.
It will affect her."
"She is not this kind of person!" Before he finished speaking, Wenying interrupted him, "She will definitely think that if trouble comes to you, staying here is the way to increase her fighting power... She definitely doesn't want to be blamed for her
It causes trouble and causes trouble to others.”
"Well, you're right...but please hear me out." Xie Zhe raised his hand and gently pressed it down, signaling the agitated Wenying to calm down. "She will consider many things, consider many...
…Things that we can’t even consider. If she stays, we will become a target, it is because the enemy’s target is her. If she is not here, people will doubt the authenticity of the false information.”
Han Chang laughed dryly and said: "Ha, lies...how can you tell the truth?"
"That's why...she chose to leave?"
"This is just a possibility. There may be other reasons that we don't know. But no matter what, she made her own choice. If she is determined to do so, I'm afraid she won't let us find out no matter how hard we search.
"
"It's not impossible to insist on asking." Han Chang's expression was a little unnatural, "But if this is her own wish..."
"Yeah, I'm a little surprised that you can think of this." Xie Zhe said frankly.
"What's the meaning?"
"It's just that... you will think of respecting her opinion. In the past, you may not have considered the thoughts of the person involved. I thought this sentence should be said by me today."
Xie Zhe chuckled as he spoke. It wasn't contempt, just helplessness, but at the same time he felt some... recognition of Han Chang's speech. Han Chang's brows furrowed even more tightly, and he asked inexplicably:
"Is it weird? Just think that after hanging out with you for a long time, she has grown a little bit. But wasn't she really kidnapped by someone? To be honest, this makes people feel uneasy."
"If she was really kidnapped, she would have tried her best to leave some traces... But no. Of course, we can't completely place our hope on this. Even if she left, she should have left some letters. She is not like this
Such an inconsiderate person.”
Wenying whispered: "But...she has been with us recently. If she is really in a hurry to leave, maybe she doesn't have time to write a letter?"
"...It makes sense. Well, the most important thing is that we need to know that she is okay."
"Yes. If there is a chance, we should entrust Liu Dao Impermanence to pay attention to her whereabouts. After all, except Huang Quan December, no one is worthy of trust..."
Xie Zhe sighed quietly. They had eaten almost nothing today, but no one complained about hunger. Compared with the fierce battle day and night, such endless changes are more tiring. The three of them stopped talking.
, just looked at the moon outside the window in unison. Today’s moon is not perfect, but it is extremely bright.
The sea foam illuminated by the moonlight...
Han Shan couldn't help but recall the meaning of that name. He spread out his hands, and a red flame burned on his palm. The room became brighter, and even the candles were eclipsed. Xie Zhe and Wenying's eyes flickered from the moon
Moved it to Han Zhang's hand. Soon, the fire turned into blue. Wenying looked at her brother in surprise, but his expression did not change. The blue fire made the room feel cold, and ordinary candlelight
Can't compete with it.
The Shiranui burning on the sea that day brought a unique Qinghai wonder.
Perhaps we will never see him again in this life.
Their last guess was closer to the truth. The good news was that Jiao Mo was fine of course, and of course she chose to leave voluntarily. For someone like her, it is not difficult to understand such behavior, otherwise Xie Zhe and the others would not have spent just
She accepted this possibility in just one day. But what the three people didn't know was that the sword that left scars on Xie Zhe's legs had already scratched her cheek earlier. She wanted to tell them
...but what's the use of knowing this?
Lies can still find her, this is an unchangeable fact.
She only scratched some skin, and now the wound has healed, but it is not completely healed. Because under the strong light, you can still see a thin line on her cheek. If these lines were rough people doing heavy work,
Of course, if you touch it through the cocoon, you won't feel anything. But if you are a young lady whose fingers are not wet with spring water, your delicate skin and tender flesh will definitely be able to detect this slightly invisible crack.
The cracks on the face…
It may never be eliminated. If you use some special techniques, you may be able to cover it up. But there is no need. After all, this is something that cannot be noticed without looking carefully. And just covering the appearance does not completely remove it.
Erase its essence. Shui Wujun's magical weapons are impeccable. Thousands of years of wind and rain have fully confirmed this.
What to do... where to go next? To be honest, she didn't think about it when she left. By the time she thought about it, it would be too late. She didn't know whether those kind people would encounter more trouble because of her, or whether
It was better to leave early. Is it possible to really go back to the waters of the South? Her family had already gone further south. She was in the South, and she didn't know from the water that her family was nearby.
And can she really go back to the sea?
Ten years... She has benefited a lot in these ten years, especially getting to know these interesting and honest people. Her current life span is far from being called old among humans. It would be too uneconomical to leave like this.
.She wanted to die like a normal person
Go to bed, live a fulfilling life, witness the great rivers, and witness the sophistication of the world. But when will it be the end? When will she feel satisfied? The scene on the mainland always refreshes her, and the boring ocean for thousands of years
life is incomparable.
The moon is so bright tonight, as if it is lighting the way forward for her. At this time, Jiao Mo is not sleepy at all. I don’t know if it has something to do with the moonlight, but she even feels full of energy. Monsters all like yin,
Perhaps even she was no exception. Walking on the path covered with silver light, her footsteps became so brisk, as if she was not leaving, but on the way to visit an old friend.
"You look really energetic."
The unfamiliar voice. Jiao Mo immediately stopped and tensed up all the nerves in his body. Was it a killer? If it was true, he didn’t know if he could handle it. It seemed that there was only one person in the voice, but there was no sound of footsteps or any communication from him.
She could not detect the aura that she could detect. If there were many such people hiding in the dark, she would not be able to cope with it.
"Take a step to speak." She said calmly.
"You don't really think that once you leave, they won't be entangled by Wuyonglan, do you?"
The owner of the voice had not yet appeared, but he said some heart-wrenching words. This was very effective. Jiao Mo clenched her fists slightly and was not in a hurry to let this uninvited guest show up. She asked the air:
"What do you mean by that?"
"You don't really think that the person Wuyonglan is staring at is you, do you?" This indistinguishable voice made her irritated. After a deliberate pause, the voice continued: "That's why you feel that you are
Just leave and everything will be fine? How naive. You must not have forgotten that you were not the only one injured by that terrible weapon, right? That person was probably injured more seriously than you, right?"
There is something in the memory that is ready to come out.
"Really, after just a few words, I feel like I can save someone. Your self-destructive virtue is really not worthy of my praise."
"I don't need you to praise me." Jiao Mo said firmly, "No matter who you are."
