Chapter Seventy-Six: Sharp Eyes
"What is this?" Fang Yu hesitated a little, from that bead, he felt a bloody aura that made people's hearts palpitate.
Lu Tian didn't answer him directly, just shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "Have you ever heard of the fiery eye?" β
"Of course I've heard of it." Fang Yu replied without hesitation.
After all, the story of Journey to the West is too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, the story says that Sun Wukong was locked in the gossip furnace by Taishang Laojun and burned for 7749 days, but under the smoke and fire, not only was he not burned to death, but he refined a pair of fiery eyes that could see through demons and monsters.
"That's the eye."
Lu Tian turned the pale gold bead around, and Fang Yu really found that in the center of the other side of the bead, there was a circle of gray-green circular traces, ring after ring, just like a human pupil.
"In fact, Sun Wukong is not the only one with fiery eyes." The corners of Lu Tian's mouth rose, and he said lightly: "You should have heard of a divine beast like Bai Ze, right?" β
Fang Yu nodded: "I've heard of it." β
He has always liked to read online novels, especially those in the fantasy fairy tale category, so he knows a lot about some mythical beasts in ancient China.
According to legend, Bai Ze is shaped like a lion, snow-white, with wings, knows the feelings of all things, discerns the things of the world, and is a rui beast that tends to be auspicious and turns evil.
"The reason why Bai Ze, a divine beast, can discern all things and understand the world, has a lot to do with the fact that he has such fiery eyes." Lu Tian spread out his palm, and the pale golden bead slowly floated, hovering in mid-air thirty centimeters away from his palm.
Bai Ze was a little surprised: "Could it be that this is ......?"
"That's right, this is the fiery eyes of Bai Ze's divine beast." Lu Tian blew on the pale golden bead, as if a stone had been cast on the surface of a calm lake, and ripples like golden juice rippled out in all directions with it as the center of the circle.
"This is a real treasure that can be compared to the corner of the truth, and this can be worthy of you."
Fang Yu subconsciously stretched out his finger and touched the bead, feeling that there was still a trace of warmth on it, and even a few traces of blood that had not dried up, which made him feel awkward in his heart.
Could it be that this eyeball was just gouged out? That Bai Ze Divine Beast......
However, before he could express his doubts, Lu Tian had already urged: "Calm down, hold your breath, I'm going to do it." β
The next moment, without waiting for Fang Yu to agree, he had already flipped his palm, and several magic tricks popped out from his ten fingers.
I saw that the pale golden bead suddenly shot out, with a flash of golden light, and directly hit Fang Yu's head.
Fang Yu subconsciously wanted to hide, but found that his body seemed to be tied by a rope, and he suddenly couldn't move.
He could only watch as the bead touched his skin, and then instantly turned into a puddle of golden water, seeping through his pores.
The whole process is not painful, but it feels cool, like going to the hospital to hang water and the nurse lady rubbing it on the skin with an alcohol cotton ball.
Immediately afterward, Fang Yu's mind suddenly had a lot of visions, one moment the fierce beasts roaring in the sky, the next moment the doomsday city where the sky collapsed, the next moment the beautiful picture of red fragrant nephrite, and the bleak evening scene of the lonely tomb of white bones.
Then the protagonist of the picture gradually became Fang Yu himself, from the time he remembered, first he sat in the middle of a bunch of children, other children played and frolicked, but he just watched from the sidelines, looking a little different.
Then the scene jumps to his first day of school with his school bag on his back, and the other children are picked up by their parents, but he is the only one, and one child laughs at him for wearing patched clothes, but he can only pretend not to hear.
When he was a little older, he began to like a girl in the class, and liked to look at the girl's back silently, but he never dared to tell her what was in his heart, until one day, the girl fell into the arms of the little gangster in the class.
As if playing a movie, Fang Yu's memories of the previous eighteen years flowed out frame by frame, condensed into fragments that were only a dozen seconds long.
Then, everything fell silent, and when Fang Yu slowly opened his eyes, his gaze became extremely clear, like a bottomless well.
Memories of a long time ago resurfaced in my mind, and became extremely clear, even a sentence that I had unintentionally said when I was a child, a text from an idle book I read, or a musical melody that I occasionally heard on the radio, all became clear at this moment, as if engraved in my mind.
"How does it feel?" Lu Tian asked on the side, with some expectation in his eyes.
"It's amazing." Fang Yu took a deep breath and expressed his feelings and plates.
"That's right, this fiery eye is taken from Bai Ze, naturally with Bai Ze's power, in the future, you will be able to understand the world, never forget, and have a superior IQ."
"Thank you, senior." Fang Yu said sincerely.
I don't know why, every time he sees Lu Tian, he has a sense of trust and worship for him in his heart, as if the other party is the person in the world who is worthy of his respect and trust.
"Don't thank me, I hope you can grow up as soon as possible, and I still have something to ask you to do when the time comes." There seems to be a deep meaning in Lu Tian's words.
And in the next second, the whole room began to shake, and it was time for Fang Yu to have to leave.
"Senior, I'll come back to see you in ten days."
"Okay, there you go."
When Fang Yu's figure turned into a ray of light and disappeared, the light around him began to dim.
Dust began to fill the otherwise palatial room, the paint on the furniture gradually discolored and peeled, and cobwebs covered every corner.
The gorgeous room was once again a cold cell, and Lu Tian sat there quietly, letting his clothes rot into ragged strips of rags.
It was quiet all around, except for the heavy wheezing sound in the corner, and the wizened gray mouse cowered in the corner, its body seemed to tremble.
"Nanming, I've wronged you." Lu Tian said lightly.
"The subordinates are willing to die for the adults, and they dare not be wronged." The gray mouse said through gritted teeth, as if in great pain.
"Don't dare to be wronged or anything, it's all." Lu Tian shook his head: "But you have to understand that our hope of getting out of trouble is all pinned on him, and in order to make him grow to the point where he can be used by us, we need to do whatever it takes." β
"Yes, sir, you're right."
"I'm sorry for you for this, but I promise that once we get out of this hellish place, I will compensate you a hundredfold and a thousand times, and I will also be responsible for healing your eyes."
"Your subordinates have thanked you."
The gray mouse said as he shook his two front paws as if he were kowtowing.
When he looked up, the moonlight shone on the side of his faceβand all that was left of his left eye was a bloody hole.
