1-004 Clouds, Mist, and Water
Let's turn back the clock a little further. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
It is said that before Lian Li's descent into the lake at that time, because he was afraid and anxious at the time, he ran too fast and his feet were slippery, and he almost rolled down the lake after Shi Luoxue fell into the water.
He was obviously not good at swimming, so he fluttered twice and then sank, subconsciously barely kicked a few feet in the water in the lake where he had nowhere to borrow, and with the help of buoyancy his mouth and nose just came out of the water, he inhaled hard and then gurgled and sank. Lian Li's body barely stabilized in the water, and found that it didn't seem to be too difficult to move in the water, so he simply calmed down and held a breath of air in his mouth to look nearby to find the figure of Shi Luoxue who had fallen into the water earlier.
Even if the water of the lake was clear before, the mud at the bottom of the lake became muddy. The vision in front of him was blocked, and the lake water stinged uncomfortably in the eyes, and even the carp wrinkled his facial features and endured the extremely uncomfortable feeling, barely spit out a small mouthful of blisters, and tried to open his stinging eyes and waved and groped for the lake water beside him. The water-soaked imperial robe on his body was much heavier, dragging him down in the water, causing his strength to drain faster.
Just as he groped his arm twice and threw it into the air, he felt that his fingertips seemed to touch something soft, he was stunned for a moment and thought it was aquatic plants, and then turned his head to look at it only to find that it was a corner of his clothes in the dark water waves on the soles of his feet.
He was overjoyed, and his other hand stretched out indiscriminately to try to find a solid place to pull the two of them up. He knew that the place where he had gone into the water was close to the embankment, and that he had not been in the water for a long time, so he could easily touch the cobblestone piled up under the embankment to stabilize the road above, so that he would have a place to float to the surface.
Who knew that Shi Luoxue, who was almost drowning, had long been unable to breathe, and grabbed the leg of Lian Li in the dark as if grasping a life-saving straw, subconsciously grabbed and refused to let go, and the Lian Li, who lost power, struggled twice in shock, and the air came out of his mouth in a big gulp, gurgling up, and his nasal cavity choked into the lake The water was so sour that he was about to collapse, because he was not good at water, and he lost his strength after a few strokes wrapped in a heavy robe.
Lian Carp struggled in vain in the water, bent his body and pulled away Shi Luoxue's fingers with his hands, but his calves cramped due to the hard struggle, and when he broke open and pulled Shi Luoxue, who had lost consciousness, with his hands, he kicked his legs hard but could only slowly fall to the bottom of the lake with her, he already felt as if he was at the bottom of the sea tens of millions of years below, and there was darkness all around.
You can't let this kid die like this......
Lian Li's sour eyes narrowed, pulling Shi Luoxue in vain, and spit out the last breath of air in his mouth, such an idea came out. He first made fun of himself in his heart that he still had time to think about it at this critical time, and then suddenly found that he had no fear of imminent death at all, and even seemed to have a strange mood in it.
He couldn't describe that strange mood in specific words, vaguely familiar but couldn't say it, but that strange inexplicable emotion made him a little trance-like a cloud, like a lullaby whispering in his ear to give up such a difficult struggle......
Give it up...... Give it up......
Since you've struggled so hard......
How can you give up now? Lian Li's closed eyes suddenly opened, and he held his breath to prevent inhaling the lake water and looked up at the top of his head.
The water on the surface of the dark lake suddenly rippled, and a black shadow swooped into the water. Obviously, the limbs of the person who were also in the water seemed to be unhindered, like a ghost living in the deep sea, quickly plucking the waves of water around him like a fish, and swimming over like a spirit in the water.
Lian Li, who gradually lost his strength, could not see clearly whether the person was facing or clothes in the turbid lake water, almost in a state of trance, gritted his teeth to force out the last bit of air in the lung cavity, and forcefully broke the resistance of the boiling water and lifted Shi Luoxue, who had lost consciousness, and the two of them flipped their positions in the water because of the force, and Lian Li, who was under Shi Luoxue, pushed his hands behind his back, and slowly pushed Shi Luoxue to the black shadow that swam quickly with the last force, but he choked on a large mouthful of water, and his nose and eyes were extremely uncomfortable and sour, and he sank to the bottom of the dark lake because of the reaction……
I'll be alive, right?
Or will it die?
Obviously he was about to die, but Lian Li, for some reason, suddenly felt calm. He didn't struggle because he didn't have the strength and the need, and he knew that his situation was very bad at this time.
Maybe it's better to just die. Lian Li still had time to think about it, and mocked his desire to survive before, and he thought repeatedly in his mind, he didn't want to be the emperor anyway, anyway, Dawei still had his mother and uncle, anyway...... Anyway......
It didn't take long to fall into the water, but time seemed to stand still in the endless dark waters.
The carp fell slowly, and the pain on the body intensified after the five internal organs were spasmed and convulsed by muddy water. However, the pain will be felt at a certain point, and for a moment, the senses of the dying moment will be infinitely prolonged, and the darkness in the vision of the carp will be more pervasive, and the pupils will be more and more dilated.
He could feel his soul light to the point of shedding his shell.
Is this what it feels like to die? Why...... I always feel like it's familiar...... Have you ever died?
In the silence of nothingness, he seemed to hear someone singing softly and muttering something over and over again after eons of time.
Who's talking?
The light in his eyes became more and more dimmed, and he could not feel the shackles of his body, but the thoughts that bloomed before death moved faster, clearer, and more unhindered than before.
The woman's voice was ethereal and sad in his ears, full of grief and desolation, repeating something, and the tone swirled back and forth in the vast dark space, but he couldn't hear it clearly, so that his head hurt, and he wanted to jump out of the darkness and kick the man hard.
A burst of extremely white light came from a distance and covered the carp, as if the sun in the sky had fallen into his eyes, and the scorching heat made him open his eyes suddenly, but he found himself standing in the boundless mist, as if he was walking among the clouds and mist in the sky.
Someone chuckled, even the carp was startled, and looked in the direction of the sound, the clouds and mist were boundless, a woman looked away with her back to herself and looked into the distance, her long hair was like a waterfall, and her waist-length black hair was simply tied with a dark red ribbon, and the end of the ribbon was also tied with a pair of small silver and white bells, and her body was slim, wearing a transparent but colorful feather coat with colorful light, and her carcass was looming, and the back alone led people to reverie, what kind of face was in front of her.
"You ......"
Lian Lili was a little frightened, and subconsciously took a step to catch up, but the woman in the feather coat seemed to feel something, as if she had waited for a thousand years to get a response, took a step happily, but hesitated to stop her steps, raised her hand and beckoned lightly in the dense fog in the distance, and then did not look back, and ran forward happily.
So what's ahead?
Lian Li looked into the distance, the white mist obscured all his senses, and his heart was in a hurry, and the ghost made the god send to take the first step. The clouds he stepped on were nothing, but they were solid, not as soft as they seemed.
His mind relaxed slightly, Lian Li was just about to take the second step, and suddenly a silver bell rang near his ear, and the fog in front of him suddenly disappeared, and he instantly fell from the clouds to the darkness, his cheeks were cold like the sea water slapping and hurting, and the huge panic of death finally hit at this moment.
I don't want to die, I don't want to die, I don't want to die, he opened his mouth wide in horror but couldn't make a sound, and before he fell back into the darkness, he only saw a hand reaching out from the sound of water in the clouds, and grabbed himself, and before he could push away the black fog in front of him with one hand and rush to see everything clearly, his chest seemed to have been hammered by someone, and he couldn't help opening his mouth and exhaling in pain.
Even the carp couldn't exhale in pain, and he didn't know where he was, he vomited out a few mouthfuls of dirty water blocked in his chest, barely opened his eyes, and saw a boy in a trance looking at him coldly, and his face stained with black mud was strange but white and pure like a blooming white lotus.
Who are you?
Lian Li couldn't hear the cheers of everyone in his ears at all, and muttered that he wanted to raise his hand, but his whole body was as heavy as lead, and then the overwhelming black mist covered all his senses, and Lian Li was paralyzed and fainted again.
By the time he woke up again, it was already a day and a half later in the afternoon.
As if the dream was not over yet, the first thing he saw when he opened it was to look at his body face to face, looking at the pale and lifeless eyebrows, and feeling from the bottom of his heart the alienation and resistance that had nowhere to go, and the previous desire to survive dissipated without a trace, and he subconsciously wanted to leave.
"Go ahead. "Someone's voice is like a dulcimer, melodious, and when that person touches his back, his soul suddenly gains weight. With the force of the forward fall, he slowly merged into his body.
Miraculously, his memory was intermittent and intermittent, and he suddenly had a sense of five senses, and he vaguely heard someone talking, as if it was echoing in a huge space, and then he felt his three souls and six spirits slowly coming back in a trance, as if he was returning from a trance, and then came a pain all over his body, as if he was twisted by the black-faced Shi Lan beside the queen mother with that pair of rough man-like big hands, and then twisted the same sore feeling.
Lian Lili frowned and snorted softly, rubbed the pillow under his neck, and for some reason sprouted a deep sleep.
The room he was in was quiet, and with a soft snort, a woman in palace clothes standing by the window a few steps away shuddered violently and slowly moved her face.
The young woman was wearing a red palace skirt today, the cuffs and placket were embroidered with golden lotus branches, and several layers of water waves were outlined with silver threads, and the corners of the skirt spread out with a light movement of the body, like a red lotus blooming quietly, the skin was like a condensed fat like a quiet orchid, and the eyebrows were solemn and hidden burnt.
This majestic red lotus trembled when she heard the sound and turned around, and then stepped on the auspicious clouds around the phoenix gilt palace boots and walked quickly through the extremely quiet compartment, leaning down gently, and the hibiscus golden phoenix with her solemn hair slanted in her bun swayed lightly. She quietly sat on the pear blossom wood stool near the head of Lian Li's bed, frowned slightly and observed Lian Li's groggy sleeping face for a while, gently lifted the red lotus wide sleeves and poked out a pair of jade-carved Qianqian thin hands, and raised her fingers lightly, reaching into the cold little hands that were covering Emperor Wei from the middle to the top, and her eyes were full of sorrow.
"Li'er?" she whispered softly, lest she wake up the child who was still asleep.
"I'm so sleepy...... the little emperor who was about to fall asleep with his eyes closed frowned, and muttered, "I don't want to get up and endorse ......"
The young queen mother was stunned when she heard this, then smiled slightly, gently brushed aside the broken hair next to Lian Li's yellow and thin cheeks, looked at the long eyelashes and was silent, and then the sadness was even worse, and she held Lian Li's hand tighter, and said with pity: "Okay, good, Li'er will sleep a little longer......"
Listening to the familiar voice in his ears, the little emperor who was about to sleep hummed like waking up from a dream, his eyelashes trembled and he opened his eyes, and his big glass-like transparent eyes looked at the loving queen mother in front of him with confusion and surprise, he was stunned, and said softly: "Queen Mother?"
Empress Dowager Wei Ruoshui hurriedly lowered her head to avoid the corners of her reddish eyes, then let go of her hands and quietly withdrew, her hands were stacked on top of the red palace skirt on her knees, ten fingers Ruolanzhi, and the big red dankou were stacked on top of each other, like a blooming fire orchid, and the next second she turned around and responded lightly to the pale little emperor in the brocade quilt, her face was solemn and indifferent, as if the two were representatives of the diplomatic relations between the two countries.
