Chapter 168: Three Lives and Three Worlds
The island of seven islands
The last time Ah Gui came here was with Xinyue, and participated in the Gathering Conference, Xingyue came to this land with Ah Gui, Ah Gui was very strange how Xingyue came here before, one has no money to buy a ferry ticket, and the other has no water Pokémon.
"Gui, you know what? In fact...... I'm not human. Xingyue walked on the island of Juyuan, which is different from the time and space of Ah Gui, there is no town on Juyuan Island, or human habitation, but a forest, Ah Gui couldn't help but be surprised when he heard Xingyue's words, and the curious baby generally stared at Xingyue, Xingyue blushed when he was seen, but still said: "Actually, I am a Pokémon - Nine-Tails." ”
Agui was suddenly surprised, Nine-Tails? If you can turn into a human form, it means that you have good ability, so why should you be bullied by people and Pokémon? Also, Ah Gui didn't even notice it. Xingyue looked at Ah Gui in her arms and walked slowly towards the center of the island of Gathering Fate, she said, "Do you remember that time in the cave of the Snow Mountain? Actually, I was already dead at that time, and we Nine-Tails and Six-Tails are called Longevity Pokémon, and that's because we can live for at least a thousand years, and besides, there are six to nine lives, and every time we die we have one less tail, and we die when we don't have a tail, but you are an exception.
Our race, once we admit our trainers, we have to swear to follow them, but human life is too short, so when the trainers die, we will be left alone, we will become extremely lonely in the long years, and the spirit will become strong, so our clan will awaken superpowers and ghost powers. And I was different, that day ......"
A thousand years ago, the lamp volcano in the northern part of the island of Kinno
The lamp volcano in this world is different from what Gui has seen before, before Gui subdued the flame bird here, but there is no flame bird here in this world, but a six-tailed and nine-tailed tribe, at this time, in the tribe, there is a nine-tailed stroll, and the other nine-tails have a strange gaze, that gaze is envy, jealousy, hate, but at the same time there is fear and trembling.
The nine-tailed strolled out of the tribe to the southern part of the island of Gathering Fate, and looked out at the sea at the southernmost point, and the nine-tails shouted at the sea, "Who am I?" Pokémon? Nine-tails? Still is...... Monster? Why are you looking at me like that? Nine-tails lowered his head and cried, but immediately the crying stopped abruptly, because, Nine-Tails found that there was a young man on the rock below who was looking at him, the young man was wearing a white robe, carrying something on his back, wrapped in cloth, the young man also noticed Nine-Tails' gaze, and the next second Nine-Tails saw the young man disappear into his field of vision, and then appeared next to Nine-Tails, the young man did not do anything to Nine-Tails, but looked at Nine-Tails with a pair of big eyes.
"Can I touch you?" The young man said in a childish voice, his eyes were crystal clear, innocent, and he looked like a good baby, Nine-Tails couldn't help but nodded, the young man stretched out his hand and stroked Nine-Tails' hair, and Nine-Tails' hostility gradually disappeared.
"Hello, big fox, my name is Xiaoxiao." The boy said his name, which was incompatible with the boy in front of him at this time, and the nine-tails nodded slightly, indicating that he knew the name of the owl, and then, the owl said to the nine-tails: "You must remember my name, but even if you forget it, don't be afraid, as long as you still remember me." ”
Nine-Tails shook his head, used his powerful spiritual power to transform into a human form, and said, "To me, you are just a little boy, just like thousands of other little boys. I don't need you. You don't need me either. To you, I'm just a nine-tail, no different from thousands of other nine-tails. ”
The boy was not discouraged by the Nine-Tails' refusal, but said, "Do you know domestication? We will tame one another, and we will need each other. To me, you are unique in my world; I am the only one in your world for you. Of course, once you tame something, you have to be responsible for her, forever. ”
Xiao pointed at himself with his right hand, and then pointed at the Nine-Tails, then put his hands together, and the Nine-Tails who turned into a human form also did the same and asked, "What does this mean?" Xiao smiled and said, "I am friends with you!" After saying that, Nine-Tails paused for a moment, and found that he seemed to have made a friend unintentionally, friend, what kind of definition is it?
……
Ah Gui listened to Xingyue's story, listened and walked, and unconsciously walked to the center of the island of Juyuan, in fact, Ah Gui saw that there was a big tree in the center of the island of early gathering, Ah Gui suddenly remembered the three-life tree, he and Xinyue had participated in the three-life relationship under the three-life tree, Xingyue pointed to this big tree, his face was full of nostalgia and said: "This is the three-world tree." ”
……
"You know what? I just found out that there is actually only one tree on the island! Xiao said, waving his little finger and pointing at a big tree in the center of the island of gathering fate and said, Nine-Tails didn't know why, looked at this piece of forest and said, "One? Are you sure? ”
Xiao looked proud, and at the same time still pointed to the big tree, and explained: "The roots of this big tree are special, rooted in the ground for thousands of miles, so that this island is firmly immovable, the roots are immersed in the seawater, not only are not soaked and rotten, but also fully absorb the organic matter in it, so that the roots grow one after another, looking at the countless trees on this island, in fact, there is only one." ”
"Oh! I see, it's the first time I've heard of it after I've been on this island for so long, so how did you find out? Nine-Tails asked curiously, he had been on this island for ten years, and how did an outsider find out? Wait a minute, outsiders. Immediately after, the Nine-Tails asked, "Also, how did you get to this island?" "Although the island of Juyuan is not far from the mainland, it is impossible for humans to come, because there is a barrier on the island of Juyuan, just like the temple of the sea in "The Prince of the Sea", which is invisible to the naked eye.
"Huh! Then I'll talk about it together! I came here, and I wanted to take a shower, but I found a huge root net underground, so I followed the roots to this place. Xiao explained, but the Nine-Tails was stunned when he heard it, and walked over? The Owl saw the Nine-Tails' doubts, stepped out with his right foot, and was about to tread water, and the Nine-Tails saw that the Owl's feet were stepping on it as if they were stepping on the ground, and there were not even ripples on the water, and the Nine-Tails now knew that the Owl had come. Xiao smiled and said, "I forgot to say it!" I'm a swordsman! ”
"Swordsman? What is that? The Nine-Tails have no contact with humans, so naturally they don't know what a swordsman is, the Owl smiled, and walked towards the big tree in the center, the Nine-Tails followed, and the Owl said as he walked: "Swordsman, what do you say?" Kill one person in ten steps, and don't stay for a thousand miles? Heroic loneliness? Magnificent? Unstoppable? Bright sword? Swordsman, who is it? Xiao himself didn't quite understand what a swordsman was, and when he was asked by the Nine-Tails, he asked himself.
"Swordsman, who is it? Maybe you will know later, in other words, since you are called a swordsman, then, what about your sword? This one on the back? Nine-Tails asked, there was something tightly wrapped in bandages on the back of the owl, the owl nodded, and the nine-tails suddenly wondered: "Since this is a sword, why do you want to wrap it in a bandage?" How to draw a sword in times of crisis? ”
"This sword, sword name: do not kill. Once unsheathed, behead the ten directions. Therefore, you should not show your sword in general! Xiao explained, and the Nine-Tails couldn't help but laugh when they heard it, just a sword, how powerful can it be? Owl didn't care about the Nine-Tails' sneering smile. As they spoke, the two arrived at the foot of the Sky Tree.
"Does this tree have a name?" The owl asked the nine-tails, and the nine-tails looked at the owl as if they were mentally retarded and said, "Tree, name?" It's just a tree! Xiao pondered for a while and said, "Such a sacred and solemn tree in the sky, since it has no name, then I will give it a name!" It's called the Third World Tree. ”
……
"Three-life tree, three-life tree, three-life three-life relationship under the three-life tree?" Ah Gui thought in his heart, Ah Gui inexplicably felt that he had an inexplicable relationship with this owl, Xinyue and this Xingyue, perhaps, three lives, three lives, really existed, and the Xingyue and Xinyue in front of him may be two in the previous life, the present life, and the next life. And the three lives, Ah Gui and Xinyue's encounter with the new moon a thousand years ago plus now, it is already two lives, and the last life, Xingyue and Xiao are one life, if you add as Xingyue guessed, he is the second life of Xiao, then it is also two lives. Three lives and three lives, with a wonderful fate, really exists? No, maybe there is, because, perhaps, I liked you in my previous life!
……
"Your name?" Owl suddenly turned to the Nine-Tails and asked, Nine-Tails froze, each race of Pokémon only has the total name of each race, as for the exclusive name, it is generally taken by the trainer, and wild Pokémon do not have exclusive names, including the legendary Pokémon, but at this time, the Owl asked a wild Nine-Tails this kind of question.
"Xingyue!" Nine-tails, no, Xingyue thought of one temporarily, I don't know if it was out of blind knitting or intuition, he gave himself such a name, Xiao stretched out his hand and said to Xingyue with a smile: "Hello! Xingyue! Xingyue also stretched out his hand to hold the hand of the owl, I don't know when it was already night, the moonlight through the leaves of the sky tree shone on the faces of the two, the faces of the two were clearly visible, and at the same time, the slightly surging sea water was also sparkling under the moonlight.
"Is this domestication?" Xingyue felt this wonderful feeling and asked, Xiao replied with a smile: "Yes, at this moment, we have domesticated each other, and we will need each other in the future, for me, you are unique in my world, and I am the only one in your world to you." Xingyue was very moved when he heard it, he didn't understand it much before, although he still didn't understand it very much, but Xingyue didn't know why, but he was very moved.
"I, I'm different from the other Nine-Tails, I'm a monster, are you sure you want to tame me?" Xingyue cried and asked the owl, at this moment, Xingyue was afraid of losing the owl and afraid that he would hurt the owl. Suddenly, Xiao hugged Xingyue, Xingyue was stunned, although he didn't understand the so-called feelings of human beings, but he was still stunned at the moment, Xiao said in Xingyue's ear: "What about monsters? Monsters also have their own things that they want to domesticate. ”
