Chapter 020: Encounter the missing Xin'er
If it weren't for the smell of a very fresh bamboo fragrance to wake me up, I didn't know that I actually fell asleep, I clearly remember that it was in Master Meng's study, when I faced a picture of a girl on the wall stroking the qin, a killer bee flew out of my fingertips, and then I ran out of the study with the killer bee and went to an extremely unbelievable cave.
In the cave I saw a beautiful girl composed of countless fireflies playing the harp, and then I was unexpectedly put in a pyramid cage and chased by monster octopuses and zombies, so I was exhausted.
Eventually, when I was too tired to do anything, I saw a courtyard in the distance, and there seemed to be a few wooden houses in the middle of the yard, and I gritted my teeth and rushed to the vicinity of the yard before I collapsed, surrounded by the zombies that followed, and I thought I was dead, but when I woke up, I found myself sitting in a small cabin with a quiet light.
The whole wooden house is made of various bamboos of different sizes and thicknesses, and countless emerald green bamboos decorate the house with a unique charm, and even a faint smell of bamboo.
Opposite me sat a woman, she was staring sadly at the guzheng in front of her, she didn't seem to notice that I had woken up, her appearance was very familiar to me, it was the daughter of Master Meng, Xin'er.
I don't know why I'm here, but I actually met Xin'er, could it be that she saved me from the zombies? So, am I still in the same cave as before, or have I left the cave now?
Or maybe it's a mind-deceptive illusion, like the glowing beauty I saw when I first entered the cave, but was quietly locked in a kind of cage while admiring it.
However, based on past experience, if I encounter a crisis, my palms will be hot or even hot, but at this moment, I feel that everything is normal in my palms, and it is clear that there is no danger.
"Hello, are you Xin'er?" Since there was no danger, I simply asked, and my voice instantly broke the silence in the room.
"Childe, do you actually know me?" The moment the other party came back to his senses, he asked in confusion.
"I've seen your portrait in Master Meng's study before, so ......," I replied truthfully.
"Have you seen my father? Is he okay? Xin'er interrupted me excitedly and asked eagerly.
"Although Master Meng's hair is all white, his spirit is okay, but his expression is a little low, he must be missing you." I recalled the scene when I first met Master Meng and replied.
"What? Is your hair all white? When I left home two years ago, my father barely had gray hair, so he must have had a bad time in the past two years. Xin'er said in extreme frustration.
"Yes, Master Meng thought that you were dead because you unfortunately fell into the sea of blood two years ago, and were devoured by the bloodthirsty alchemy shark, so he has been sad until now, and he has become depressed, if he knows that you are still alive, he will be very happy, and in time, he will be able to recover his health quickly. By the way, have you been stuck here for the past two years? I asked curiously, reassuringly.
"It's true that I'm still alive, but being trapped here is no different from being dead, and I won't be able to go home to see my dad for the rest of my life. My mother passed away just after giving birth, my father raised me, he is my only relative, and the best father in the world, I really want to go home to accompany my father, but I can never go back. Woo woo......" Xin'er said in a choked voice, and couldn't help crying after speaking.
Listening to Xin'er's words, I was surprised, she said that she was trapped here and couldn't get out for the rest of her life, so wouldn't I be able to get out too? Where the hell is this?
It's just that seeing her crying so sadly, I'm embarrassed to interrupt her, if she is imprisoned here alone for two whole years, there must be a lot of grievances suppressing her heart, just let her cry well, venting it is good for her body.
So I sat quietly, silently watching her cry unpassionately, my heart was also unspeakably sour and helpless, and I was also worried about my future, did I have no hope of leaving here and finding Feng Juanjuan and my mother in the black prison?
"I'm sorry, I just miss Daddy too much to make you laugh." Xin'er cried for a long time before she said to me a little apologetically.
"It's okay, I can understand, you're much luckier than me, at least you've lived with your father, and I was given away when I was born, and I still don't know who my mother and father are. I'm trapped here with you now, and if I really can't get out again, then I have no hope of knowing where I came from in this life. I poured myself a cup of tea, drank it in a sip, and sighed as I stared at the empty cup in my hand.
"By the way, I don't know your name yet? Also, how did you get here? It stands to reason that no one who entered the cave and made it to me alive should be trapped in the pyramid outside. Xin'er suddenly remembered something, stared at me and asked.
"My adoptive parents named me Su Feiyang, as for my real name, I don't know, I only know that my nickname is Tian'er. I was about to ask you, but there were a lot of zombies chasing me, and I was so tired that I fell down when I rushed to a yard, and I was surrounded by zombies, and then I fainted, and when I woke up, I was here with you. Didn't you save me? Where is this? As I spoke, I walked to the window and looked out.
"I saw you lying on the ground outside the yard, surrounded by many zombies, I thought you had become a zombie after being bitten by them, but I didn't expect a flash of golden light, and those zombies ran away in fright. I went out to see if you were still alive, so I helped you in. You're a big deal, you've been the only one I've seen survive in the past two years. Someone used to get lucky enough to run out of my yard, but they ended up being bitten to death by zombies. In this cave, only this yard is the safest, with a prohibition, zombies can't enter, but if I go out, I will be bitten to death by zombies. I've been stuck here for two whole years now. Xin'er looked at me with an incredible expression and said.
"Golden light? Could it be ......" Hearing Xin'er mention that it was the golden light that drove away the zombies and saved me, I naturally thought of the amulet pattern in my palm. I didn't expect that while I was unconscious, the amulet could also actively defend. But considering that this amulet is my secret, it is easy not to tell outsiders casually, so I didn't continue halfway through it.
"What is it? Could it be that you have a defensive weapon on you? It's okay if you can't say it's okay, but if your magic weapon can really deal with zombies, maybe we have a chance to get out of here. Xin'er saw that my face was embarrassed, a little hesitant, guessing that I should be reluctant to mention the origin of the golden light, and said empathetically. He just gave me a hopeful look when he said the last few words.
"Actually, I don't know if I have a magic weapon on my body, maybe those golden lights are my mother protecting me in secret, before I came to the black prison to be reborn, after experiencing some bizarre things, it became like this, I don't know why, even if there is a magic weapon, I don't know how to use it." I thought about it, but I told the truth, because I thought Xin'er looked very innocent, and I didn't know much about it, so it didn't hurt to tell her.
"Reborn in the Black Prison? Aren't you a native of our Dan Shark Island? Are you from the mortal realm? Xin'er asked in surprise as she covered her mouth.
"The mortal realm? The world I was in was called the mortal realm? So what kind of realm is the Black Prison? Could it be that the people in the Black Prison are all immortals? I asked in confusion.
"I was born in the Black Prison since I was a child, and as far as I know, this world is divided into three realms, one is the most ordinary mortal realm, that is, the world where you died before; The second is the Black Prison, which is the world after you are reborn, also known as the Immortal Realm; There is also a heavenly realm that is limited to the legendary heaven where all gods live. It is said that Qin Shi Huang, the emperor of our Black Prison, has spent a lot of manpower and material resources in the past five hundred years, but he has not found a way to enter the Heaven Realm and no evidence that can prove the existence of the Heaven Realm, so the Heaven Realm is still just a legend. I haven't even been to the mortal realm, and the heavenly realm is even more out of reach for me. Xin'er patiently explained, and when she mentioned the Heaven Realm, her eyes showed a look of extreme envy.
"How nice is the Immortal Realm? Why is it called Black Prison again? "I felt uncomfortable at the thought of the name of the Black Prison, so I naturally wanted to ask for clarification.
"In fact, the black prison has always been a customary name among the people, and the official is not allowed to call it that, especially if you mention the word black prison when you enter the imperial city, you will be killed on the spot by the patrol officers and soldiers. It is said that after Qin Shi Huang had a nightmare about the Black Prison Angel five hundred years ago, he issued a decree that the Black Prison was officially renamed the Immortal Realm, and no one was allowed to mention the four words Black Prison Angel, including the two words of the Black Prison, otherwise the whole door would be beheaded. So in the last few hundred years, the word "black prison" has hardly been heard. Xin'er said to me cautiously, as if she was worried that the wall had ears, and it was clear that she still had lingering feelings about the word "black prison".
"A nightmare about the Black Prison Angels? Is there really a Black Prison Angel? Xin'er, where can I find the Black Prison Angel? Can you tell me? "Hearing Xin'er mention the words Black Prison Angel, I was pleasantly surprised, I remember that my mother once told me that if one day I can take back my Black Prison Angel, I can go to her, and my mother and I can reunite with mother and son.
Therefore, any information about the Black Prison Angel is extremely important to me, and I have a gut feeling that Feng Juanjuan seems to be related to the Black Prison Angel, as long as I get as much information as possible about the Black Prison Angel, it will be of great benefit to me to find Feng Juanjuan and her mother in the future.
"I don't know where the Black Prison Angel is, if we can get out of here alive, you can ask my father, he might know. The only thing I can tell you is that the underground cave we're in now is the Black Hell. The reason why the Immortal Realm is also called the Black Prison is because there are fifty-four underground black prisons like this in the Immortal Realm, whether they are officially imprisoned in the Black Prison or those who inadvertently break in, none of them have been able to leave alive so far, so the Black Prison is a forbidden place in the Immortal Realm, a dark hell on earth. This is also the origin of the name Black Prison. Come, while the zombies are asleep for the time being, I'll take you around this terrifying black prison quietly. ”
Xin'er said this with a melancholy face, opened the door and walked out. Hearing Xin'er say this, my heart also sank, I didn't expect that I actually broke into the black prison by myself, so do I still have hope to get out of here in my lifetime......
