Episode 4 Isle of Tribulation (10)

A month has passed, and this day is very strange, Chi Yinghan did not go to practice. She ordered the day's affairs every morning and then went to practice her strange martial arts behind closed doors without knowing whether it was qigong, and only came back to share a bed with me in the evening, more often than not, I was with her in the dark, and sometimes I would wonder, is she afraid to see the sun? Monsters are like that, right? Perhaps the fog surrounding the island in the sky was her way of "shielding" the sun...... No, although she is powerful, she also does not have the ability to conquer nature. But now in my mind, she can't be considered a monster, I have acquiesced to this bad relationship, and the thought of me succumbing to her makes the shame occupy my heart, and until today, it is estimated that it has been ** point, and she has not left.

I admit that I never looked at her properly, or even tried not to look at her as much as possible, but today her behavior was so strange that I couldn't help but ask, "Are you ......?" before I could say anything.

She casually asked, "What?" Then I realized that her voice had become as melodious as that of a normal young woman, when did it become like this? I suddenly remembered that from the first night, the unbearable wedding night, her low roar like a beast, to the recent night, her ** voice has indeed gradually transformed into charming.

I mustered up the courage, and even overdrew the courage in the future, to look at her face suddenly...... No more scabs! Although it is paler than ordinary people, it is already a handsome face, only those eyes, which retain extreme vigilance and primitive animal nature, even if she completely changes, these eyes are enough to distinguish her from ordinary people. Her skin, though still a little rough, was much better than before, and most of her hair turned black and shiny. Indeed, in this way, in addition to being thinner, she is not as good as the four girls outside.

Ji Yinghan was also a little surprised that I dared to look at her directly.

I couldn't help but ask, "Are you like this?" ”

"Originally?" She replied, as if disdainful, "I...... As I said, it's your honor that I fell in love with you, I have a portrait! As she spoke, she rummaged through the small storage room where the paintings were stored like a child, and then carefully took out a drawing, and as soon as she shook it open, I cried out in surprise. Although this painting is not as completely realistic as the photo, it can be seen at a glance that it is Ji Yinghan himself. It's just that the clothes are more gorgeous, the skin is like snow, and the delicate face is covered with a light powder makeup, which is extremely beautiful, and it is indeed a gorgeous fairy image.

I was completely stupid and stared at the painting motionless for a full minute. Ji Yinghan also seemed to be satisfied with admiring my expression, and then said proudly, "How is it?" Do you still think I'm ugly? ”

I had nothing to say, and I had a faint sense of loss: she used to be beautiful, but I have always been. But he asked an irrelevant question: "Who drew it?" ”

She didn't answer, and I asked, "Is it him?" The original husband? "I know it must be, but for some reason, I'm a little sour.

Chi Yinghan said mischievously: "Ah, I didn't expect you to be jealous...... You know how to cherish it, right? "It dawned on me that she was really endearing, she was so ...... Beauty.

"Why didn't you take it out in the first place?"

"There's no need. You won't believe it either. ”

"That'...... How old are you this year? What kind of martial arts do you practice, how can you rejuvenate yourself? "I was a little dazed considering her age.

"That's what I'm going to talk to you about today, and I'm going to tell you everything you should know as a husband from today on." Ji Yinghan's expression revealed a holiness in his seriousness due to the change in his appearance, "As for whether you want to stay, I'm not worried at all." You're going to stay, you're a responsible man. ”

She stood up, paced back and forth, and suddenly paused, and said, "I'm about your age." Don't believe it. I can rest for a long time. It can last up to a few decades, so my actual age is not that old, but most of the time is spent sleeping. ”

Although I was no longer afraid of her, I still didn't dare to laugh casually, but asked suspiciously, "What about you...... Are you saying you're hundreds of years old? Are you from the Qing Dynasty? ”

She said lightly: "You are my husband, you should trust me more than anyone else." Didn't I prove it to you? I can break trees and split rocks, do you think this is what ordinary flower shelves can do? "My heart sank, it is true that it is possible for a person to jump from a height of four meters without injury, but she can jump from the ground to a height of four meters without any effort, is this a light work often described in novels? In any case, it's hard to have anyone do that in real life. Or the wolf child who is often said in the news can also run like a fly and hunt with his bare hands, but he is not as good as her.

"My husband's name is Zhang Renying, and his name is Lingyao. We are brothers and sisters, and we are responsible for guarding the same precious ...... It is not just precious, but a treasure of great importance. According to the instructions of the ancestors, we must give up our youth with the method of turtle breath and guard it forever. ”

"On this island?" I wanted to believe it, but her words were too fantastical, "Your ancestor made this island?" ”

"You still don't believe me...... The island has a very long history. She frowned sadly, this action made me feel indescribable love, I tentatively reached over to hug her, she pretended to struggle and did not move, I felt that she was more and more like a real woman, but I didn't understand, she was obviously a civilized society, at least a person from an ancient civilized society, but she was willing to be unkempt and wear animal skins, did she suffer any blows?

She suddenly became cold again, and said to me seriously: "He usually likes to travel all over the world, and he has been to many places where the official ships of the imperial court have not been. It's a coincidence that the island is found occasionally. He wanted to meditate here for a while before leaving, but who knew that the ships that also came here were destroyed by the monsters in the mist, and no one survived. He remembered that there was no fog on the day he came, and after observing it for nearly half a year, he realized that one day in a year he could successfully land or leave the island, and he happened to be the lucky one who came that day, and he also found the treasure on the island. So when he returned to Middle-earth the following year, he kept it a secret that only his successive heirs could see. ”

Sure enough, as I expected, this is not a dead island, and you can still enter and exit! I...... I can't tell if I want to leave or stay. I'm going to ask her if she's willing to go with me, because the material civilization of human society still makes me very attached to it. Of course, if she insists on protecting her treasures here, and I can't bear her, then it's better to stay here...... I really can't bear her! But those four girls should still let them go, they don't want to come back anyway, and they can't lead anyone to bother us. I should have a good discussion with Chi Yinghan about this.

"Wait," it occurred to me that I had to ask, "that flying fish monster, hidden in the fog, did you already know?" Your grandfather also knows? ”

“…… Yes. She did not shy away from saying, "Whether it is Master Zu or me, we have long known about its existence from the mouths of the ancients, and it is nothing more than that we have only seen it with our own eyes after we came to this island." There is a fish in the northern underworld, and its name is Kun. The Kun is so big that I don't know how many thousands of miles it is. Turned into a bird, its name is Peng. Peng's back, I don't know how many thousands of miles it is. Flying in anger, its wings are like clouds hanging from the sky...... You've heard of it too, right? ”

I couldn't help but laugh: "That's it? Who can't memorize when they're studying? That's what you use as a basis......"

"It's just an outsider's interpretation." "We are different from ordinary people," she said word for word. Our ancestors had an internal interpretation. I just said this just to illustrate it to you. In fact, the flying fish is a very ancient animal, long before we drank blood, it existed in the world for a long, long time. It usually hides in clouds and mist, and comes out to move on rainy nights with lightning and thunder. ”

"And how do you know?" I suddenly felt that in addition to being pretty, she was actually a little crazy.
