Chapter Eighty-Five: Who is the Water Ghost?
When I saw the rose, I thought of Ah Cheng. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Ah Cheng is a good friend of mine. He once was full of ambition to cross his waist with one hand and draw a great circle with the other, enclosing the earth in which we could see, and said to me, "Lianruo, one day, I will make all the scars bloom with roses!" ”
The wounds he spoke of are the wounds of the earth. You see so many scars on the ground, they are all water ghosts. They can't get on land! They just got some strange weapons against us, and we ended up making the earth like this. Look at the big crater, it was blown up by a cannonball; Those deep marks were raked by nine-toothed nails. Looking at these ruins, you can see how tragic the battle was at that time. Fortunately, Ah Cheng commanded properly, and our casualties were not large.
He was not only wise and brave, but also well-informed and ambitious, and said that he would use roses to cover these eyesores. But I didn't know what a rose was, so I asked him, "Is a rose a weapon?" Or is it eaten? ”
"It's a flower!" Ah Cheng patiently explained to me, "Its roots are very deep, it can only grow on solid soil, and if there is too much water in the soil, it will die because it can't breathe, so——"
"Ah, better than grass!" It dawned on me.
There are a lot of plants growing on our land! But they are basically in the category of grass. Evergreen grass, short grass, purple stem grass, vine grass...... Fat and delicious, with a short root system, lying there like a jellyfish. It's all to blame for our lack of momentum on the ground, and there is water everywhere - water is such a terrible landform, thicker than the lake water, softer than the land, lightly stepped on, "horn" a soak in water; If you step on it hard, you will almost sink into it and face a crisis. These grasses have evolved, their bodies are light, and there is no problem at all when they lie on the surface of the river, and they suffer pedestrians, and when they see a piece of green grass, they stride over, and the "horn" is not topped. The grass spread out like duckweed and gathered back again, as if nothing had happened.
If you plant roses, it's different! If you walk where the flowers are blooming, it must be solid ground, and no one will drown! I held Ah Cheng's hand: "That's great! When will it be possible? ”
"Maybe it's going to take a while. After all, the place where the rose seedlings are produced is far away, and ......," Ah Cheng turned his head, "Do you really like it?" ”
"yes." I felt cold, and grinned into Ah Cheng's arms to warm up, "That must be beautiful!" ”
"One day, you will sit happily in the roses." Ah Cheng's tone was surprisingly solemn, "Lian Ruo, I promise you." ”
-- The dividing line at the end of the second story --
Manshu uses the knowledge of simplified Chinese characters to look at the story written in traditional Chinese characters, although it can be completed, after all, it is bumpy and needs to be guessed. After she finished reading a paragraph, she translated it to the demons. The black fork forest lord is not as good as her in recognizing traditional Chinese characters, and it is only after listening to her that he suddenly realizes and expresses his opinion.
Regarding the second story, everyone's reaction is relatively unanimous: "This is about a war between the aborigines and the demons?" ”
So far, the king has not intervened, maybe because their village is very small and remote?
If we continue to fight, it may turn into a big war!
Not to mention that everyone is curious, Manshu is also busy looking down:
The third story, the water ghost
I've never seen a rose in my lifetime, and I certainly don't know what it looks like. It is obviously not enough to rely on what Ah Cheng casually described to me. So, this little pink double-petaled flower in Ling Yan's hand, why did I immediately know what kind of flower it was? I couldn't help but shudder slightly.
Actually, I've been hurt. Very serious injury. After that injury, I forgot a lot of things, and like an idiot child, I asked Ah Cheng to pick me back piece by piece and tell me what kind of person I should be. Relying on Ah Cheng, I became a complete person again.
But now I suddenly think that maybe I'm ...... Not as complete as I thought?
I seem to have some pieces lost somewhere. Even I don't know.
"It's not flowers." Ling Yan buttoned the calyx, and it opened, revealing a small portrait, "I'm sorry, my plan to transplant the flower seedlings failed." It simply can't stand the climate we have here. I can only bring back a dried flower and wear it with me day and night, expecting—"
"Who is she?" I stared at the little ivory statue.
She has honey-colored skin, reddish-brown hair, a smile as bright as the sun, and a faint freckle on her cheeks. She looks so healthy and happy that it makes me jealous! No, deeper than jealousy. It's like some kind of ......
"Lian Ruo." Ling Yan was helpless.
"Who is she!" I'm irritable. Why she looks like this damn sounds familiar to me. What the hell am I missing!
Ling Yan raised his hand and gently pressed it against my bubble wall.
As a human being, I can't live in an underwater world. Thanks to this huge bubble that covers my whole body, I can breathe. Does he want to puncture it? I flinched back in fear.
He pressed his palms there, motionless.
I hesitated, but finally I couldn't resist the temptation, and slowly raised my hand and folded my fingers with him.
It's hot. It's strange that the water ghost always has such a hot body temperature that we all covet. However, Ah Cheng warns us: this is just a water ghost's lure technique. If we indulge ourselves closer, we risk being devoured by water spirits.
I should have backed away.
Ling Yan pulled me out of the bubble! He actually pulled me into his arms! I felt damp and weak, like a fish about to melt in his hot arms.
Ah Cheng, come and save me! Ah Cheng, this ghost is going to eat me! I burst into tears and threw myself with all my might.
He buried his face in my hair and muttered, "If you hate me, eat me, Lianruo." ”
Someone outside suddenly shouted: "General, Madame's room is on fire!" ”
He ran out in a hurry, and I was lying on the ground, choking. The bubble just now has been burst by this barbarian! I couldn't breathe. What to do, what to do? Ah, there's a water glass on the table, and I'll jump in!
- Wait a minute. Water, water glasses?
I gasped and looked around the small space blankly. I'm squatting in a water glass?
Speaking of which, wasn't the bubble I was staying in just now a bubble, but a blister? I have to be in the water to breathe...... What is it?
Fists clenched. Normal people should ask "Who am I?" Deep down in my heart, I already know the answer?
"Lian Ruo. Mi Lianruo. The hem of her skirt was squirming, and a young lady walked in.
"Huh?" How is it that everyone here knows me. I held my head. This does not bode well.
"You're back, it's okay, this time we can settle this matter once and for all." She carried a small piece of paper in her white fingers, and as soon as she let go of her fingers, the paper floated down leisurely. I looked up blankly.
The piece of paper was about to fall on my face.
In the moment when the paper fell, who suddenly moved the cup away? "Boom" splashed and I hit the wall of the cup. The water in the cup shook into a tsunami. Who the hell did it?! With such a strong force, I'll faint to death in the cup, big brother!
Ling Yan's angry face appeared above the cup. Wow, from this point of view, his face is so big, like some kind of cute monster - why do you always want to be so messy, is there a little sense of crisis, Mi Lianruo! I slapped myself on the head.
"Lingdang, what are you doing?" Ling Yan's anger was directed at the noble lady.
"Using the Purification Charm, what's wrong?" There was a sneer on Lingdang's lips. She had picturesque eyebrows and plump blond hair, and she was originally a beauty, but the thick bitterness in her smile hurt her face, "It is natural to use this method to deal with water ghosts." Isn't it, Husband-sama? ”
-- The dividing line at the end of the third story --
"So Lian Ruo is a water ghost! Ling Yan and Lingdang are Lingmin! Manshu finished retelling the story and summed it up like this.
Everyone agrees.
Even Ruo's partner Ah Cheng is also a water ghost.
These four people were supposed to know each other? Judging by the illustrations, maybe they're still good friends? But Lian Ruo and Ah Cheng have become water ghosts, and they don't know yet. Ling Yan arrested Lian Ruo and wanted her to bring a bomb to kill all the water ghosts!
Well, it seems that so far, the main story line is like this.
Was the water ghost killed later? Manshu and other demons, could it be the descendants of those water ghosts? They go on:
The fourth story of our love
It's really going crazy!
How can you be so fierce? Ling Yan and Ling Dang, the couple, scolded each other in the most intense language that a human could come up with. Ling Yan scolded Lingdang for creating a fake fire and taking the opportunity to come over to commit murder; Lingdang scolded Ling Yan for hiding the portrait of his old lover by his side and deceiving people too much; Ling Yan said that it was only now that he saw the true face of Ling; Lingdang said that it was because Ling Yan had never bothered to take a good look at her. Words are like sharp arrows, shooting wildly. During the argument, they kicked down the table, trampled on the roses, and knocked over the water glasses.
- That's what I hate the most. Why do they quarrel and bring disaster to the water cup on which I live?
The couple are clearly evenly matched. Lingdang threw Ling Yan to the ground, Ling Yan grabbed her neck, and she took off a high-heeled shoe and smashed it into the back of Ling Yan's head. When the high heels were held in the air, the roof was broken by something, Ling Yan hurriedly signaled, she was also aware of it, but the shoes still fell down according to inertia. "Bang!" The visitor outside the roof gave her a spell of lightning, and the whole world fell silent.
"Ah Cheng!" I struggled to lift my head in the poured cup, tears welling up in my eyes.
It was Ah Cheng who came down from the roof. Obviously, he can't survive in this world, so he hides in a big blister all over his body, and when he moves, he has to step on the blister like a mouse stepping on a cage, which is not unfunny. But at this moment, in my eyes, no hero in heaven and on earth is not as burly as him. He swept his eyes into the room, quickly saw the situation clearly, raised his hand, picked me up, pulled me to his side, and I was able to breathe freely again.
"Ah Cheng, we ...... It's a water ghost, right? I hugged him behind my back and asked softly. (To be continued.)
