42. Mask

In the trembling of the little assistant, those reporters came and went in a swarm. After they left, until the evening, Gu Xi didn't look for Chi Chi again, as if this incident had never happened.

At about nine o'clock in the evening, someone came to call Chi Chi's assistant away, but was stopped by Chi Chi, and after that, there was no one who even came to find Chi Chi's assistant.

The female assistant, who was only in her twenties, was crying again, this time in fright.

Chi Chi made it clear that he didn't listen to Gu Xi's words, and she must be the unlucky.

She really couldn't understand if Chi Chi had taken the wrong medicine, and the little girl who was usually so talkative suddenly became a stubborn temper who couldn't be persuaded to listen, and she actually didn't give Gu face twice in a row. That's a pity! Don't talk about the coffee position, she is still the most effective person in the entire crew, what can she do if she offends? !

Chi Chi did exercise and homework as usual, and called Boss Han in the evening, saying that he was about to finish.

The second day's drama is the literary part of the showdown between Linglong and tourmaline.

It is also the only scene in the whole play in which Linglong no longer wears a mask to face tourmaline.

[Shen Zhou ordered in front of Tourmaline to block the news of Coral being killed at sea.] Tourmaline got the second Divine Tree token that Wenxuan gave her, and in order to destroy the Sacred Tree, she must first enter the secret passage of the temple. 】

The main hall of the temple was empty, except for Linglong, a white linen robe, kneeling beside the altar.

Tourmaline walked in step by step from outside the door,

When she saw Linglong's outfit, Tourmaline knew that she already knew the news of Coral.

"You still know. She let out a long sigh and clasped her hands in her sleeves.

"Shen Zhou, she is also afraid that you will be sad, and she may ...... It's feeling like I can't face you. ”

On the altar are shriveled leaves, which come from the sacred tree, and the people of the daughter kingdom can conceive and give birth to children by taking the fruit of the sacred tree, and they also believe that if they are buried with the leaves of the sacred tree after death, then their souls will return to the sacred tree.

"Four thousand nine hundred and thirty-five, four thousand nine hundred and thirty-six......" Linglong counted one by one, her mouth gently opening and closing, as if reciting an unknown scripture.

There were 5,000 warriors on the expedition with Coral, and all of them were buried in the belly of the fish, and their bones were gone.

Five thousand and one of the leaves of the sacred tree were burned into ashes and scattered into the sea, can they bring back those wandering spirits who have nowhere to live in the sea?

As a priest, Linglong didn't know the answer himself.

Behind her, Tourmaline came closer and closer, the sun shining through the door behind her, and she seemed to bring a piece of darkness from the light.

Perhaps, she has always been the shadow that wanders in her daughter's country.

Linglong didn't face her, and she could feel an invisible pressure coming from behind.

The girl's expression was a little haggard, her eyes were scattered and empty, and she counted the leaves, and her voice became smaller and smaller.

"Four thousand nine hundred eighty-eight, four thousand nine hundred eighty-nine......"

Tourmaline looked at such exquisiteness, and her face was still full of consistent love. "Although there is no Wenxuan, and there is no coral, poor child......" her hand rested lightly on Linglong's shoulder, "I will take good care of you." ”

"Five thousand and one, five thousand and two, five thousand and three. Counting until her lips were dry, Linglong finally stopped.

Tourmaline didn't notice that she had two leaves.

"No...... Wen Xuan ......" Linglong turned around, both in her voice and in her expression, with the confusion and grief of losing a qiē, "There is no more...... Coral ......"

"yes. ”

The corners of Tourmaline's lips were slightly hooked, and a pair of hands slowly rubbed on the girl's back, and her voice was soft and hoarse: "Your propaganda was taken away by the sinking boat, and your coral ...... He was also killed by the sinking boat. ”

The last few words, she whispered slowly in the girl's ear.

One tear, two tears...... Slowly flowing down the girl's face, what is noble and elegant, what is not to provoke mortal dust, is thrown away in the pain of losing a loved one.

She knelt beside Tourmaline's lap, like a child who had nothing to rely on, and at some point there was a leaf of a sacred tree in her hand, which slowly crushed between her fingers, and the crumbs fell to the ground, no different from dust.

"Why, kill the coral?" no one knew who she was asking questions, no one knew what was in her eyes.

Tourmaline crouched down and put her arms around her shoulders, her eyes becoming too loving, too gentle, and finally revealing a little hypocrisy, and this subtle change of emotion actually made her face come alive, as if she had only gotten rid of some mask until this moment.

Because she opposed Wen Xuan's entry into the palace. ”

The answer was too much for the girl to accept, and she shrunk her shoulders, bit her lower lip, and closed her eyes, fending off the pain that came from deep within her body that she couldn't bear.

"Shen Zhou has obviously gotten the document, why don't you let go of the coral?"

"Because Coral is a general, she is in control of the army......" Thinking of Coral, Tourmaline's eyes revealed complicated feelings, "Military." ”

The woman's fingers ran through the girl's long hair.

"The army is power, and for the sake of power, a queen can become an executioner, just as she can become your enemy for the sake of love. ”

"Power?" the girl smiled mockingly, not knowing whether she was mocking power or the person who coveted it, "In front of power, no one cares about me." ”

At that moment, her gaze was deep and complex, the opposite of the original simple girl.

It's like a white flower suddenly blooming with fragrance, but it's not what people imagined.

She is poisonous.

Linglong slowly stood up from the ground.

At the same time, Tourmaline's expression changed abruptly, and a steel thorn was inserted into her abdomen.

"Can power make you turn your back on your daughter's country, and can it also make you kill coral?"

Linglong's expression finally became excited: "She is my sister, you watched her grow up, you ......"

“Cut!”

Fei Ze pestle his chin and looked at the monitor, thought for a long time, and finally said to Chi Chi: "Your emotional expression is a little soft, the early stage is very good, at this time, you shouldn't still have this love-hate feeling for tourmaline, coral is much more important to you than tourmaline, you have to be more passionate and let go a little more ......"

Chi Chi stared at the script and nodded silently.

The tourmaline played by An Lan is too gentle, too loving, and too wise, so that she can't help but lean towards her side when designing her own emotional logic, probably this is the so-called "being led away", not a scene being taken astray, but the accumulation of these scenes, so that as a delicate person, he can't help but be full of feelings for tourmaline in his heart.

Looking at the girl's frowning and thinking look, An Lan sat on the side and said unhurriedly: "Feelings are relative, you can feel the love of tourmaline because tourmaline does pour more feelings into Linglong, that is to say, I also think Linglong is really a distressing junior." ”

In every scene with Chi Chi, An Lan couldn't help but amplify the emotional release of her, because there was indeed a real relationship between the two of them, saying that Linglong had too deep feelings for tourmaline, and tourmaline was of course the same for Linglong.

"Acting, it's just to see who can have more fun. Fetzer patted her on the shoulder, "Feel good, let's start where you inserted the steel spike." ”

The girl looked up at him, and for some reason, she felt that what she had just said was a little familiar.

Linglong, who stood up, slowly turned to look at the tourmaline, and her sleeve wiped the place where the tourmaline had just been touched.

"Power can also make you turn your back on your daughter's country?!Can it also make you kill Coral?!" Her face leaned closer to the tourmaline, as if trying to see what kind of heart lay beneath this familiar skin.

"She's my sister, you watched her grow up, do you think everyone is under your control, and everyone who stands in your way will die!"

Linglong's eyes were murderous, and her eyes when she looked at the tourmaline were no longer the closeness and admiration they once had.

Many things have never been precious because they have been lost, and the moment tourmaline came into contact with the exquisite eyes, I felt a sour feeling in my heart.

"If you want a daughter country, Coral will die, Shenzhou will die, and thousands of people outside will die, and you don't care about it. ”

Glancing at the hideous steel thorns on the woman's abdomen, there was the joy of revenge in her delicate eyes, the unforgettable hatred, and the sorrow that came from nowhere.

"I, I can only let you die first. ”

Saying this, she smiled, her eyes slightly red, and her expression was gloomy.

"It turns out that you already knew everything. ”

Tourmaline's hand slowly pulled the steel thorn out of her abdomen, and she stared at Linglong, her eyes gradually becoming indifferent and cold.

Linglong looked into her eyes and slowly took two steps back.

Little by little, tourmaline stood up and looked much taller than usual.

"It's a pity, you don't know......" Her voice became low and dangerous, and the hand holding the steel thorn was gently raised, and as soon as the hand was released, the steel thorn fell to the ground without the slightest trace of blood, "I am a merman." ”

The girl's pupils shrank, a premonition of danger.

Several cloth bags with red dots and green paint fall from above, and after post-effects, the cloth bags will turn into static fish-headed human monsters.

"The ...... I'm sending you to see your sister. ”

Tourmaline said, waving her hand slightly.

She turned around and took a long breath, as if this would suppress the faint pain in her heart.

Looking at a few monsters, the corners of Linglong's mouth showed a sneer, the white robe was torn, and the black leather armor was tightly wrapped around her slender and powerful white body.

Chi made up for the part where the clothes were picked up and thrown away, and I shot them a few more times, but the clothes didn't look good when they flew just now. ”

"Oh. Chi Chi nodded.

Over and over again, An Lan and Liu Tingxin sat in their chairs and watched lazily, holding the water in their hands and gently clinking glasses.

"Nice view today. ”

"Hehe, indeed. ”
