Zangguang left the tavern from the back door, pricked up his ears and listened, the tavern crackled non-stop, knowing that Hong Yi was arranging, he didn't have time to take care of himself for the time being, so he slammed into the door of the boss's residence directly at a trot, and only thought about informing one of them in his heart, and if he could run, run quickly. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info knew that the front foot just stepped into the empty space, and the body was planted under surprise, and he rolled down directly.
When did it turn into a wine cellar? The boss is going to soak himself in the wine vat...... Ye Zangguang thought so, feeling that his body was out of control, and the soil face kept beckoning to his face, occasionally turning a corner, his body would have a more intimate contact with the passage, and after reaching the flat ground, Ye Zangguang lay there on all fours, thinking that the boss was afraid of stealing, after turning so many corners, the shops in front of him were about to be demolished......
Reluctantly standing up, the black grunt couldn't see anything, and could only grope its way forward. Because of the previous experience, this time the steps under my feet have become smaller.
"You're here......"
The sudden sound startled Ye Zangguang, and he didn't plan to stand up again when he sat on the ground. He said hesitantly, "Come...... You're ...... You've come early......"
The dim candlelight lit up, because the range of reflection was not large, and with the shaking of the candle, it was impossible to see what the place was, and it would be bright and dark for a while, like a ghost fire, but the person sitting in front of the candle was so clear that Ye Zangguang couldn't say a word with his mouth open, it turned out to be the mayor of the town.
"You still came to such a difficult place, it seems that it is providence. The mayor stared at the candle flame, and the voice was as low and scattered as if it had been blown out of a crack in the ground.
"Town...... Mayor Town, this place is actually quite easy to find, just one road, as long as you push the door, you have to come down. Don't blame God, I guess God won't have nothing to dig in the tunnels to play, it's not good to dig so deep, and the stuffing almost comes upside down. ”
The more Ye Zangguang spoke, the more uncomfortable he became, and he felt very bad about the mayor being so pretentious, so he patted the dust on his body and stood up.
"What a good child, what a good Qinglian Town...... It's a pity, what should come will come after all, and you can't hide from it......"
"Mayor Town, now is really not the time to hide! Just before an outsider killed Erkui, and now he is going to find some spiritual root, in fact, he wants to take away a child in the town. This can't be delayed, you have to have an idea!"
"Is it for it?"
After the mayor finished speaking, he took out an object from his arms, it was a lotus root with a crystal green light shining all over his body, and the surroundings were clear and abnormal under its background, and after looking around for a week, he sat on the ground again, and even forgot the pain.
On one side, a piece of green lotus was shining, but on the other hand, the room was full of dead silence, and the strong contrast made Ye Zangguang almost collapse, and he didn't know what the mayor was doing.
"The whole village is waiting for you, including me, but I don't know it...... Is it fortunate or unfortunate to have you in the village......"
As he spoke, the mayor stretched out a trembling hand and gently turned the nearest spiritual seat around. Although the sound of rubbing against the ground was inconspicuous, it was very uncomfortable to listen to Ye Zangguang's ears, and there was even a chilling feeling.
Ye Zangguang's eyes were so wide that he didn't dare to come out, looking at the scene that was about to happen. There is no word! There is nothing on it! Ye Zangguang breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's yours, so wordless is entirely because of it!"
After speaking, the mayor shook a piece of green lotus in his hand, and then his tone sank, and he continued: "When I picked you up, I was just a baby in swaddling clothes, and I left you by my side when my son died. Twelve years ago, when you were just able to walk, you dragged me to that place. It was the town's forbidden place, and no one knew about it except the previous mayors. Do you want this lotus, do you know what it does? For many years, because of it, the small town of Qinglian has always been on the verge of war. At first, I didn't understand, but then I figured it out, the blessing and misfortune are all up to you, and nothing has changed. Even if the water is dire and has nothing to do with my Qinglian, even if the people are mourned, Qinglian is still unstained..... However, no one can escape the prison of death! Hundreds of years of inheritance are not as good as a newborn orphaned baby...... I vaguely remember the rain when I picked you up, and it was so dark that I couldn't even see a crack in the sky. If you open your eyes and see the first rays of light, I really want to know what you see besides hope......"
Ye Zangguang was about to cry, what is this? I picked it up by the mayor of the town? Why did I become a tavern in a mess...... No one has ever told me about their parents, but what is it raining? It's raining so much. I can't do it by being struck by thunder...... Why is it such a coincidence? Heavy rain...... Heavy rain? Ye Zangguang kept muttering in his heart, as if he remembered something......
Suddenly, Kuramitsu's back straightened, sweat mixed with muddy water slid down his face. It's that intermittent dream, the same heaven and earth, the same wind and rain......
Looking up at Qinglian in the mayor's hand again, a trance suddenly hit, and Zangguang couldn't even tell whether he was out of it or in it. The black-clothed people above the wind and rain, the people wandering in the wind and rain, and the little girl who almost withered under the wind and rain appeared in front of him one by one. When I turned my head to look at it, some were excited, some had tears in their eyes, and some looked at them with pity...... Ye Zangguang trembled, and his eyes widened to try to reload reality into his mind to get rid of this lingering innocence.
At this moment, there was a loud buzzing in his ears, and Ye Zangguang covered his ears hard to isolate the outside world, but the voice in his heart could not be suppressed. A baby's cry was extremely loud, and then the call came closer and closer with the gradually enlarged Qinglian......
Come on...... Come on...... You and I are of the same origin, why have we been separated for so long? Let me enter your heart and become a part of you, and live you to my body and become the most precious lotus seed. Come on......
Hearing this vague voice, Zangguang instinctively stretched out a hand, but was disturbed by the boundless rainy night, withdrew his hand and pressed his ear desperately, and kept shouting in his heart: "I don't know you, go away......!"
Just when his eyes were filled with bright red blood, everything in front of him shattered and withered, and the dream became a reality, and one by one familiar names were engraved on the spiritual table. It was a fluke to face his back, and it was a shock to face it, and Zangguang felt cold all over his body, and he couldn't even breathe.
"Accept it, Zangguang, you are a pearl, even if you are thrown to the lowest place, it will still be useless. Natural selection, it's time to put an end to it. Hong'er, come here!"
After the mayor finished speaking, he picked up a dagger from his side and picked the wick of the candle, and the candle flame suddenly became much brighter. Against the backdrop of the candle flame, the dagger shone with a sharp light.
At this moment, a woman came to the mayor's side, a living person, and compared to those spiritual positions, Zangguang felt a little more life.
"Zangguang, this lotus should have been handed over to you, but please allow me to be selfish for once, give it to my granddaughter Hong'er, just thinking that with this so-called spiritual root, she can survive, she may not be happy, but at least she is alive. As for you, it was chosen by God, not to mention the efforts of so many people. It's best to wait until you're strong enough to get back what belongs to you in the future...... It's best to protect my red ...... too."
The mayor choked up several times after saying this, and then pointed to the surrounding spiritual positions, and Zangguang looked at the trembling fingers, as if poking in his heart.
"Well, I agree. ”
"Hong'er, come here, I have a few words to tell you, for what happened today, no matter what happened in the future, you are not allowed to think about it again, let alone mention it to others. Ye Zangguang is on the other side, you have to try to forget, today is a stranger, understand?"
Hong'er understood. The woman's voice was soft and firm.
"Okay, I'll give you this lotus now, it's also a gift of hidden light, but it's not in your hands, are you ready?"
"Grandpa, I'm ready. ”
Ye Zangguang listened to the conversation between his ancestors and grandchildren, and felt a little trembling in his heart, if he didn't hold it in his hand, he would still be tied to his feet......
At this moment, the mayor suddenly turned around, and stabbed at Hong'er with his right hand, which was the dagger that had been missing from the candle flame for a long time, the tip was still red, and it was pierced into Hong'er's body and made a sizzling sound. Ye Zangguang couldn't hold back the tears in his eyes when he saw this scene, and wanted to ask why it had to be like this, but he couldn't make a sound at all.
"Ye Zangguang, a man must learn to be stronger! Put away those useless tears, and everyone in Qinglian Town doesn't need to use tears to see them off! I can feel more at ease when this spiritual root is placed on Hong'er. ”
After saying that, the mayor stuffed the lotus root into Hong'er's body, then threw away the dagger in his hand, picked up the prepared needle and thread from the side, and sewed it.
Hong'er may not be able to endure this pain any longer, and a low wail echoes around her. Ye Zangguang wanted to find a corner to lean on, but found that he didn't even have a heart to rely on.
After a long time, the mayor tore off a piece of Hong'er's clothes and slowly tied it to his face.
"Zangguang, you two go out now, you are responsible for calling all the children in the town, and you will say that it was my idea. Do as the man tells you, and it would be good to have one more. Don't take off the cloth on Honglian's face, no one can, can you do it?"
"Yes...... Yes...... But you've got to get me up first......"
"Hong'er, go over and help each other out......"
In the long and narrow tunnel, Hong'er bent over but didn't forget to hold Ye Zangguang, and Zangguang dragged his legs but didn't forget to bend down and pull Hong'er. Listening to each other's heavy gasps, I always feel that there is no end to this continuous upward road.
