Chapter 396: Reversal
Speaking of light, the silent and dark pool did start with Ah Yan, and slowly became transparent and bright.
The little monsters with blinking eyes are a little creepy, but when there is light in the darkness, they also seem to be happy. Looking at these little monsters now, Man Shengsheng suddenly felt that they were not so annoying.
Like a contagious plague, the light quickly spread throughout the pool of ice water, dissipating every darkness at the bottom of the pool and the accumulation of volcanic magma on the surface of the pool.
Man Shengsheng looked up at this time, and he could already see the light of the faint lotus seat on the top through the extremely transparent pool surface.
The plaice and Hu Qin were sitting on the lotus seat, also looking down to probe the movement below, they must have been curious and surprised by the change in the water of the pool.
Man Shengsheng was waving to the plaice, and the flounder was also in a hurry to wave his arms.
"Let them come down, it seems that there are still some causes that need to be unraveled. Zhu Yan said to Ah Yan.
Ah Yan glanced up with her hair flowing in the water:
"Hmm. ”
Then, with a wave of his hand, the barrier at the bottom of the lotus seat ceased to exist, and as soon as he lifted his hand, the lotus seat slowly began to fall.
Then Zhu Yan quickly ripped off the monk's coat on his body and wrapped it around Ah Yan's body.
"Poof!"
The lotus seat fell into the water in response, startling the jade flounder and the huqin. However, after they were forced to inhale, they found that they could actually breathe in the pool of water, so they slowly adapted to it.
The plaice couldn't wait to hurry up and said:
"Oh my God, what the hell is going on here. After you fell, I was worried and scared for a long time, and then the stone didn't know what was crazy, and I jumped down without looking back!"
As he spoke, the jade flounder flickered his eyes, and found a stone body that had no breath in a protrusion in the pool. The little monsters of the wood climbed up to the stone, as if they wanted to eat him, and as if they were just curious.
He ...... Dead?" the plaice exclaimed.
Although he was an enemy before, the stones had also stuffed himself everywhere, but when he saw the stone corpses sinking at the bottom of the pool, Man Shengsheng was always a little unhappy.
She asked Zhu Yan and Ah Yan:
"Is there a stone in this world, is he only an incarnation of the serpent from beginning to end, or has he been invaded by the serpent? ”
Ah Yan didn't seem to know very well, so he said:
"It's just an empty skin, and after driving away the serpent, my consciousness entered the body of the stone.
There may really be such a person as a stone in this world, the giant snake only uses the body of the stone to move, and the consciousness of the stone himself may have long returned to his original world. ”
If so, everyone is happy, Man Shengsheng continued with a little relief:
"The giant snake hiding in the body of the stone and the giant snake in the actress palace are really two extremes. However, I have a deep understanding that if the two giant snakes are combined, we will have a more scheming and clever opponent. ”
Ah Yan sighed:
"The serpent is not an opponent, it is also a friend and foe, and it is also a pitiful and helpless existence. ”
Man Shengsheng sighed in agreement. After all the experiences during this time, Man Shengsheng's mind seems to have become a little more restrained.
At this time, Ah Yan looked at Hu Qin, and Hu Qin also looked at Ah Yan.
"Sure enough, it's your ......," Hu Qin was the first to speak.
Ah Yan squinted his eyes and smiled bitterly:
"It's me, Huqin, it's me who brought you all into the urn when the fishing village was destroyed.
At that time, in order to avoid the sweep of officials, I temporarily went out of the fishing village and hid in the mountains to avoid it for a while.
After that, the officials dragged the bodies of all the people in the fishing village to one place for collective burial so that the corpses could be destroyed.
Just as the official sent back to the yamen to mobilize manpower, I quietly turned back to the woods where the corpses were parked, and carefully checked each corpse. There is one reason why I do this, and that is that I can't let go of you who I grew up watching.
However, I did not find you in the pile of corpses, and of course, I have no power to stop the slaughter of the officials, so the fishermen's bodies must have been wiped out long ago.
I have tampered with the memories of the fishermen in the urn, so that what happened to the fishing village that night will be forgotten by them......"
"You're lying!"
Hu Qin suddenly said angrily.
Man Shengsheng glanced at Huqin, and then looked at Ah Yan, she smelled that a good show was about to be staged again.
Zhu Yan also looked at Ah Yan.
Ah Yan didn't dare to look at Hu Qin's eyes anymore, and then said with an expression that couldn't contain the fire:
"I brought you to the Three-legged City and gave you rights and a stable life, and I thought you would forget the past and your hurts.
However, seeing your restless daily listening around, I know that the day of your doubts will eventually come.
You find the stone, or the serpent deliberately went to you, the serpent knows everything, he deliberately reveals something to you, you will definitely be impatient to find the truth, and go to the serpent three times and twice.
Now tell me what kind of truth you have found. ”
Huqin's nose is sour:
"When I was a child, I was often beaten and scolded by my father, and whenever I did, I would run to a huge rock on the top of the hill and sit and cry, and then you would come and comfort me and play with me.
But as I grew older, you appeared less and less until you disappeared. I thought you had left the fishing village for some reason, but now I know that you have been living in the village all along.
Why? I want you to tell me why you avoided me. ”
Ah Yan shook his head and said:
"I am an ageless body, Huqin, when you were born, you looked at you as a cute baby, just like seeing my own child.
But you'll grow bigger and bigger, and I'll always be like this, at least until you grow old and die. If I continue to appear in front of you, how can I explain that I have changed from an elder to your sister?
So I slowly faded out of your sight, looking at you from afar, guarding you. ”
Hearing this, Hu Qin's expression of "Xingshi asks for guilt" gradually softened, but at the same time, it was also disappointed. She bowed her head and said:
"I thought that even you had abandoned me, and the people in the village thought that I was unknown, and since I was born, there have been many strange things in the village.
My mother is not in good health, and the family needs a boy to go to sea with my father to fish to supplement their livelihood, but because of my mother's poor health, she has never had children since I had me.
In desperation, my father could only raise me as a boy, let me do rough work and heavy work, and beat and scolded me everywhere.
The people in the village said that I was an unknown person, and every time I followed my father out to sea to fish, I would definitely cause the villagers to encounter storms and waves. ”
