Chapter 62: The Water Girl in the Sea with White Flowers in the Mountains
When Luo Muli heard this, he immediately knew what the old man meant - on the other side, someone was waiting for them, and this person must not be his mother.
"Grandpa, thank you for thinking so much about us. Lin Shuihan looked at the old man with gratitude, but he didn't appreciate it very much, and raised his head very disdainfully, "Thank you! I kindly reminded you for the sake of the face of the wooden ring!"
"This ......" The two suddenly wondered, "You mean, this thing was originally yours?" Luo Muli took a step forward, aggressive, and the old man was so frightened by her momentum that he took a step back, and said, "Didn't you say it! I sold this thing to Lin Shu, and then she gave it to Lin Shuihan!"
"Then why is it in my hands again?!You haven't answered my question!" Luo Muli took another step forward, the old man looked at her helplessly, and his aggrieved eyes fell on Lin Shuihan, he knew what the old man meant, so he immediately stepped forward to stop Luo Muli, and said softly: "Let's leave quickly, maybe, Nan Kongqian is waiting for us over there." ”
Luo Muli glanced at Lin Shuihan, and then at the old man, knowing that the two of them must have something to hide from themselves, and they didn't want to let themselves know, okay! Since this is the case, then she won't be forced to force each other tightly, anyway, after going back, she will definitely sort out the cause and effect of the matter!
Old tree spirit, since you want to hide it like this, then I want to see if you are one foot taller or I am one foot taller! I don't believe it, without you, I can't overcome Lin Shuihan!
Thinking of this, Luo Muli resolutely turned around and got on the boat, and before leaving, the old man said a meaningful word to Lin Shuihan, he patted Lin Shuihan's shoulder with a solemn expression, and said: "Remember, the most difficult thing to do in a person's life is not to be afraid of the world and do it casually." ”
After saying this, the old man disappeared from their sight, and when they gradually moved away from Ran Island, the two finally knew the secret of Ran Island, and they finally understood why so many people wanted to come to Ran Island, but almost no one could get it.
Because the Ran Island seen on the Qinghai Sea, full of mountains and white flowers, blooming all over the mountains, a white expanse, connected with the vast sky, there is no trace of the island, what makes Luo Muli even more surprised is that there is actually a transparent isolation barrier on Ran Island, she only then understood that if the old man did not appear at that time, I am afraid that she and Nankong are shallow, and there will be no way to find Ran Island!
It seems that this 10,000-year-old tree spirit is really not low! Perhaps it is precisely because of this that he cultivates on Ran Island will get twice the result with half the effort, and he will conjure up edges and corners so quickly!
It's just that the 10,000-year-old tree spirit is so willing to stay on Ran Island? Who is he? Can he survive for 10,000 years? She thought so in her heart, and suddenly remembered the story that Lin Shuihan had told before, so she asked him: "Lin Shuihan, what did you say before, what is the legend of the love of water and land?"
"It's in our Beiban Zaikong City, there is a person who is very good at telling stories, and I also heard him say it, that is, about Qinghai Island, a story about the love of land and water. ”
"Can you tell me more about that?"
Lin Shuihan was slightly startled, and then nodded, "Of course!" Before the words fell, he began to tell a story that he and Ning Xi had heard from Gu Dao Zhenren three years ago, about the fisherman and water demon of Qinghai Island......
Ching Hai existed a long, long time ago, when there was a small village on the shore, and the people in the village basically relied on fishing to make a living, if the weather was good, the harvest would be abundant, and if the weather was bad, even their lives could sink into the sea and disappear.
One day, the wind was beautiful, the sea was calm, the villagers were about to go out to sea to fish, but they found that there was a person lying on the shore, so they went up to check, and found that it was a young man, scarred and dying, the villagers rescued him, took care of him for a few days, and he finally woke up.
The villagers wanted to wait for him to wake up and ask him about the origin of the incident, but what they didn't expect was that the man actually didn't remember anything! This shocked the villagers, and for a while, everyone's attention was focused on the man! Everyone was speculating about where he came from, but no one knew.
Later, because the man had nowhere to go, he simply lived in the village, and because he had no name, everyone called him Aqing.
He would often go out to sea with the villagers to fish, but every time he came back, he had the least harvest because he didn't know anything, and they didn't have much time to teach him.
Later, he often went to Qinghai alone at night to practice fishing.
He didn't notice it at first, every night when he was fishing, there was always a pair of bright eyes staring at him in the sea, until one day when he perfected the fishing technique, he found that not far from him, there was a pair of eyes staring straight at him!
He was taken aback, and then he fainted, and fell into the sea.
When he woke up, he found himself lying on the shore, and remembering the pair of eyes he had just seen, he still had palpitations, and felt that it was not suitable to stay here, so he got up and wanted to leave, but as soon as he took two steps, he heard a shallow movement behind him, and he immediately turned back—
But he saw nothing.
A trace of fear swelled up in his heart, and he turned and walked away quickly, but after a few steps, he heard a strange sound behind him, and he stopped at once, and thought to himself, since this had come to this, he should find out what was in the water!
So he boldly walked back, looked at the rolling waves in front of him, cleared his throat, and shouted loudly: "Who! Come out for me!" The sea seemed to move, but no one responded to him, he firmly believed that there must be something in the sea, after taking a deep breath, he plucked up his courage again, took a step forward again, and shouted loudly to Qinghai City: "Hurry up and come out for me! Don't sneak around there!"
Before the words fell, Ah Qing saw a human head appear on the sea, he was startled, and his steps couldn't help but retreat, until the people in the sea gradually revealed the true face of Lushan, Ah Qing relaxed, it turned out that it was a woman!
"You...... Who the hell are you?" Ah Qing looked at the woman in the sea, with long hair and a shawl, a beautiful face, the corners of her mouth curved like a hook moon, a pair of flooded eyes like watery spirits, her body exposed to the water was naked, her back was facing the bright moonlight, and her outline was extremely beautiful.
"I ...... My name is Ling Su. The woman gradually approached Aqing, and Aqing saw that her body was getting closer and closer to herself, so she subconsciously turned around, so as not to let her eyes fall on her, and reminded her by the way: "You...... You don't have any clothes, don't, don't get too close to me, there is a difference between men and women. ”
Ling Su looked at him with a look of rejection and resistance, so he didn't get closer, stunned in place, not knowing what to say, Ah Qing saw that she didn't say anything, and covered her eyes and turned back to ask, "That, I'...... I just want to ask you, why do you keep staring at me? You are the same person who looked at me in the sea just now!"
Ling Su nodded, "Well, because before, you fell into Qinghai and I rescued you ashore, and then I saw you appear, I wanted to follow you and see how you were, I'm sorry, I scared you." ”
Her voice was very soft and soft, which made people listen to it very comfortably, Ah Qing suddenly relaxed her vigilance, and asked in surprise: "You rescued me ashore?!"
"Hmm. Ling Su nodded.
"That'...... Then why didn't you go to the village to see me at that time, and you had to stare at me in the sea like this, do you know that when I saw your eyes just now, I thought it was a water ghost, and I was scared to death!"
"I'm sorry. Ling Su said very apologetically, as soon as Ah Qing heard that her voice was aggrieved, her tone softened, and she hurriedly comforted her: "You, don't be sad, I'm not blaming you, I'm just curious." ”
"Curious about what?"
"That's it...... Why are you sneaking around following me in the water, you have to look at me, just go to the village to find me openly!"
Hearing this, Ling Su instantly lowered his eyes and said weakly: "I...... I could only stay in the water and couldn't go ashore, so ...... That's why I didn't go to the village to look for you. ”
"Why?" Ah Qing suddenly became curious and quipped, "You can't be some kind of mermaid, right?"
"No, it's a curse on me, as soon as I come ashore, I'll die of exhaustion, and I can't see the sun, or I'll die of exhaustion, so I can only stay in Qinghai for the rest of my life, and I can only move freely at night, and this is my only place to live. Ling Su said very sadly, A-Qing suddenly felt her mood, and unconsciously, her mood became heavy.
He wanted to ask her what the curse was, but she didn't want to mention it when he thought of it, he didn't want her to be embarrassed, so he swallowed back the words that came to his lips, and turned to her: "No matter what, I still want to thank you for saving me, so let's do it, in order to repay my life-saving kindness, tell me what you want to do, what you want to eat, I will satisfy you, okay?"
"Really?" Ling Su's eyes lit up in an instant.
"Hmm. Ah Qing nodded, "As long as you say it, I will do my best to help you do it." ”
"Then I want to eat the dumplings you made!" Ling Su shouted excitedly, Ah Qing was confused, "Dumplings?!Haven't you eaten them?"
Ling Su shook his head, "No, I've seen you eat it before, and I think it's very fragrant, and I've always wanted to taste it, but I didn't have a chance." ”
As soon as she said this, A-Qing immediately agreed, "Isn't it just dumplings, it's not a big deal, don't worry, I will definitely bring it to you tomorrow!"
"Really?"
"Yes!"
