After a long while, She Zishu choked out such a sentence from her throat. She should be grateful, but she couldn't tell how she felt now. Should she hate him and blame him? But the child did nothing wrong - maybe he was wrong.
The mistake is just a little playful. But isn't this the nature of all children, or even all cubs? They have not yet been injured by the sharp edge of life and survival, and this is a rare stage in their lives where they have the right to remain ignorant...
Innocence also killed her "children".
The boy clutched his clothes in embarrassment. He may have witnessed everything, or he may not know what happened. He seemed uninjured, and his clothes were not torn, just a little dirty. He may not have hid by the river, but
He went to the nearby woods. He looked at her timidly, seeming a little apologetic.
"Sister, I'm sorry... I caused you to come to me and wet your clothes."
Zishu looked at him with his mouth open, but did not speak. The boy may have seen someone familiar and ran over from the hiding place. Since the child is fine, don't waste time on him for the time being. Zishu looked towards
The silent grandma, she had been stunned in place, frozen. Her dark eyes fell on a fixed position, and she did not look at Zishu. That was the place where the previous ghost disappeared - Quilt Zishu
Burnt out place.
How can human beings recognize the appearance of souls...? Zishu couldn't figure it out. She remembered that it was clear that many people couldn't, and most people...but it wasn't like they didn't. Why could she do it? Or maybe the special bond of human beings is
It can make them notice something unusual. But what's the use of this? It's better to ask yourself, if you were calmer at that time...
The noise of the people became clearer and clearer, and she saw that the light made of torches was approaching. She felt a sense of inexplicable fear.
What happens next? People will think that she saved the child. Even though the child will clarify, he and people will still thank her... And what about the old lady? She will use that hoarse voice to whimper and cry about losing her granddaughter again.
? It’s clear that so many years have passed, but the brief reunion and loss have come together again
She suffered such a strong impact. Can she recover from that dazed state? Maybe she will get better, maybe not; she may tell what Zishu did, but no one will
Believe it, or even if you believe it, you won’t have any more feelings. After all, it is a ghost, and it is not your child after all.
Before people discovered them, She Zishu imagined almost all possibilities.
Then she finally made a decision.
"Don't let your mother worry... Go back with grandma and help me take care of her." She said to the boy, "Also, say goodbye to grandpa and your friends for me."
She smiled a little bleakly, with water still dripping from the wet hair. When the evening breeze blew by, she felt a little chilly and stinging slightly. This is the "cold" people should feel. And she smiled.
Sometimes, she couldn't help but wonder if she had ever laughed unconsciously and from the bottom of her heart before. At this moment, she knew that this was not true.
"Sister Zishu, won't you go back with us?"
"Well, it's time for me to go. There's still a lot to do."
I can't stay here any longer.
"But, but your clothes...you are covered in water, so cold -"
"Don't forget that I am a powerful miko."
She felt relieved and spread her arms. Her body became very hot, and her clothes quickly bloomed into light patches of color. The moist areas dried, and the moisture in the skin, hair and fabrics quickly evaporated. She exuded a light fragrance all over her body.
There was a red shimmer, and occasionally a spark-like light point flickered. The little boy frowned, feeling both magical and sad.
He watched her turn around and disappear into the cold night. The light in front of his eyes dimmed, and the crowd behind him came. As soon as he turned around, he was taken into his arms by his mother who bumped into him. People laughed and celebrated. The old man went
She pulled the grandma who was still dazed. She seemed to have come to her senses, but said nothing. Finally, she looked in the direction that Zishu had left, but there was nothing there except darkness.
She went to the sparse woods. Because it was the south, not many trees had lost their leaves. But this did not relieve the depression in her heart. The nameless depression made it difficult for her to breathe, but she did not know what it was. If she was really a
Humans who have lost their memory will definitely be able to recall similar emotions. Having said that, even a monster should have its own joys and sorrows. What kind of monster is she that is so insensitive to this? Or as a monster, she also has those feelings.
Emotions were completely forgotten.
Zishu didn't want to think about it anymore. She seemed to have no ability to think about it anymore. Just as she was walking silently at night, a light song sounded in her ears again. This time it was very close. She immediately looked around, trying to judge.
Where was the source of the sound? She knew very well that it must be the sound she heard underwater.
The sound of music came from diagonally behind, and she immediately turned around and ran towards that location. Not long after, she saw a familiar figure in the bushes. At that moment, the loss in her heart was temporarily left behind.
, she felt a sense of surprise.
"Yin Quan...?" she shouted, "Is that you?"
The familiar apricot-yellow clothes looked like Yin Quan, who had been away from her for a long time. She was still alive and seemed uninjured. Zishu gently pressed his hand on his chest and took two steps forward to take a closer look at her.
Huan didn't show much surprise, as if it wasn't the first time he saw her at this moment.
She held up something to show to Zishu, and Zishu discovered that it seemed to be an agate of good quality. But if she looked more carefully, she would find that there were small black holes on it. Isn't this...
"Is it that magic weapon?"
Yin Huan nodded. Then, she pointed in the direction where Zishu came, and then pointed at herself.
"You mean, where are you coming from?" Zishu quickly understood, "Did you see me?"
Yin Huan nodded again.
"Why didn't you earlier..."
Yin Huan sighed softly, as if he had some unspeakable difficulties. However, there was no need to explain too much. Zi Shu could also imagine how difficult it would be for her to deal with Yin Huan appearing next to her again when she was panicking.
She didn't ask any further questions about her current mood. She just looked at her with some nostalgia. But what made Zishu feel strange was that she didn't seem so... so familiar to her. It was hard to say why, maybe it was because she had been away for too long, and...
A lot of things have happened...Yin Quan has changed a lot.
Her appearance has not changed much, and her aura doesn't seem to be unfamiliar to her. Maybe it's her temperament - she has aged a lot, and her behavior has the feeling of being in the world for many years. But did they have to be separated for that long? She didn't know.
, why does fate let
They met here. This was different from the lively and information-rich places. It was considered a wilderness. How could they meet again in the vast wilderness? Everything seemed to have been arranged. She wanted to ask Yin Quan
, but knew that she would not be able to answer for a while.
There was a different kind of maturity in Yin Quan's eyes. But at this time, she called Zi Shu to come closer and showed a playful and cunning smile - which made her look like a lively child for a moment. She will
Put it to your mouth and blow out a sweet song
At this time, every tree crown in the forest was swaying gently, which seemed strange in the latter half of the night. Zishu became alert, but soon discovered that many birds were flying out one after another. Their movements were strange.
Sluggish, seems to have just woken up.
Many birds, big and small, black and white, flew over. Soon, clever squirrels and small moles came towards them. Within a certain range, all animals were awakened.
They circled around the chanting phoenix and sang songs, as if in response to the music.
It was quite a dreamy scene. Zishu looked at all this blankly, and his mood improved. The woods became lively. But at this moment, the chanting phoenix that was playing suddenly stopped. The music suddenly stopped, and those small animals
After reacting, after a brief daze, he immediately ran away in panic. Some birds collided with each other, and a lot of messy fine velvet fell from the air, like snowflakes. Soon, no trace of any living creatures around him disappeared.
.
Yin Quan spread his hands helplessly, as if to say, "As you can see."
"It's really a magic weapon... and you can use it." Zishu muttered, "Yeah - just like what the national master from heaven did in the past."
Ye Yinquan nodded repeatedly. Then, she gestured on her waist, as if measuring the height of something. She pointed to the direction where Zishu came from again, and then brought the xun to her mouth, but she just made a blowing sound.
After a series of movements, Zishu seemed to understand what she meant.
"You mean, you...saved that child?"
Yin Huan continued to nod. Her expression was a little happy, as if she was very happy that she had done this, and Zishu understood what she meant. Zishu continued to reason:
"Before me, was that boy really a water ghost? So in desperation, you used music to control him and didn't let him go into the river. Only when the villagers came did you feel free to let him out.
? He didn’t seem to see you, and he didn’t tell me what happened. Of course, I didn’t ask... I heard music playing while I was looking for him, was it you who directed him to come back? "
Yin Quan kept nodding in agreement with her inference. Zishu wanted to sigh, but in the end he didn't. Perhaps the four cute little water birds were too far for her location at that time, not to mention the firelight attracted her attention. Those birds
When she ran down the river desperately, she did not hear any sound. But did she want to blame Yin Quan too? No, she should not blame anyone, including herself.
That's all, that's all, don't think about this anymore. Now that you've met Yin Quan, it's already a great joy.
"Why are you here? I thought I would never see you again..."
Yin Quan thought for a while, and finally squatted down and scratched the dry land with a stone. She only wrote one word, and Zi Shu immediately understood what she meant.
That is the word "die".
"You want to go there too..."
If so, their reunion seems more reasonable. Is there really such a coincidence in the world? Maybe... it really is such a coincidence. She doesn't believe in fate or God, but there may be something really responsible for her misfortune.
Compensation. These two words came to her mind - yes, unfortunate. This should be enough to describe her situation.
But from now on, everything should be fine.
The clothes they both wore were so old, and were worn too thin in many places, almost torn. Yin Huan still had patches on her body. Her clothes were made of materials only used by wealthy people who did not travel far or do heavy work.
, it has been cherished enough until now.
It was almost dawn. They accompanied each other and walked forward in the darkness that was gradually dispersed by light.
