Chapter 181: The Sad Truth
I silently controlled the boat, the speed of the boat was very fast, and after a while, it gradually drifted away, leaving the cat demon town far behind, and looking from the boat, the cat demon island became the size of a fist.
I felt a lot of emotion in my heart, it was only a few days since I came to Cat Demon Island, but everything seemed to have changed, and even what I was sure of was not so sure, before I came to Cat Demon Town, I thought I could successfully rescue these people, but it turned out that I couldn't save so many people, and people can't fight against the sky.
As I was immersed in my thoughts, I heard the group of students wake up.
I heard An An shouting there: "Yang Yifan, what's wrong with you, your injuries are not serious." "I still have to sail the boat, and I don't have time to care about them, but I am afraid that something will wrong with them, so I prick up my ears and listen to what is going on outside.
I only heard Yang Yifan's weak voice comforting An An: "I don't have any problems, but my leg seems to be broken." ”
Then I heard a rummaging motion, followed by a small sound. and An An's uneasy instructions: "Uncle, be lighter, don't hurt him." ”
I knew that it was the middle-aged uncle who was treating Yang Yifan's injury, and I was suddenly relieved.
Seeing that they had an uncle to take care of, I wanted to concentrate on driving the boat and take them out of this broken place as soon as possible, at this moment, Zhou Jie rushed in and stood next to me with tears on her face, and took my hand: "Sister, where is Li Ming?" Why didn't Li Ming stay with us, I know we're not on Cat Demon Island now, but why didn't you bring Li Ming out. ”
I pulled her hand away, looked at her quietly, and said to her as plainly as possible: "Li Ming can't come back, I can't save him." ”
She looked at me in shock and asked, "Why?" Isn't he still alive? ”
I said to her, "Actually, there is no difference between living and dying, and there is no point in bringing it out, so it is better to let him stay there." ”
She was stunned and said, "I don't understand, what do you mean by that." ”
I didn't! Ignore her and drive my boat professionally. After a long time, I said to her who was somewhat relieved: "Wait a little longer, wait for Zhou Siyu and the beard to wake up." You'll know the truth. ”
Zhou Jie listened to my words and stood in place in a daze, she understood what I said, but she didn't understand what it meant.
The boat was still moving forward quickly, slowly. The surrounding scenery began to change, and unlike the weird painting style of Cat Demon Island, the scenery here is fresh and natural. It looks very clean, very pure, and not shrouded in black demonic energy, and mine is now completely out of Cat Demon Island.
I began to slow down the ship and let it move silently, but there was no danger now.
At this moment, I heard the middle-aged uncle shouting excitedly: "Siyu, have you woken up?" Zhou Jie heard the voice and quickly ran out, and I followed her outside.
I saw the bearded man standing to the side with a blank face, and the middle-aged uncle was holding Zhou Siyu in his arms, Zhou Siyu had opened his eyes, but he didn't respond to the uncle's call, and he could see that something was wrong at a glance, to be honest, the current Zhou Siyu is like a vegetative person, or to be precise, she has become a vegetative person.
Uncle also sensed that something was wrong, he raised his head and asked me with a shocked face, "What the hell is going on?" How could Zhou Siyu be like this, could it be that the long-lived cat demon deceived me and didn't put Siyu's soul back. ”
I approached him, helped him pick up Zhou Siyu, and then said to him: "Let Zhou Siyu go first, and I'll tell you the reason." ”
The uncle looked at Zhou Siyu, who was unresponsive, and nodded at me with a solemn expression: "Okay." ”
When the uncle put Zhou Siyu on the long seat on the boat, he carefully covered her with a blanket. I walked out of the cabin with my uncle. Then I turned back
Chong and Zhou Jie, who were still standing there, beckoned: "You guys also come out together." ”
An An saw that there was a lively scene and wanted to come out, so I ordered her: "Hurry up and let me in and take care of Yang Yifan." She heard me, stuck her tongue out at me, and walked back to the cabin.
Seeing her walk in, I said to my uncle: "Now only the bearded man is the one who has occupied the body of the cat demon, and only he can tell you the truth, so listen well." But I hope you don't get excited after listening to it, and you don't think about revenge anymore, because that's completely pointless. ”
The middle-aged uncle heard my words and nodded silently.
At this time, the bearded man spoke: "I was captured by a cat demon on the first day I came to Cat Demon Town, and after he captured me, I don't know if it's right!" I did some weird trick, and when I woke up again, I found myself a cat. But I found myself still conscious, but the other cats in Cat Demon Town didn't seem to be conscious, they only knew how to eat and sleep groggily every day, and they didn't know what was going on at all? But why I'm the only one who doesn't feel affected, I don't understand. ”
After listening to the bearded man's words, the middle-aged uncle's face changed, and he struggled to say the fact that even he didn't want to believe: "You mean, the cat demon has made everyone unconscious, except for you?" But why is that? ”
I looked at the crystal clear surface of the lake, which was already far away from the town of the cat demon, as if I had come to another world to talk: "Because the cat demon does not allow anyone to break his secrets, he cast spells on all the people he captured, directly dispersing their memories, leaving only an empty shell with a trace of soul." In this way, even if the person can be saved, the spiritual consciousness will be completely destroyed, and the possibility of recovery is almost zero. ”
I paused, and then said: "And the uncle is fine, I don't know the specific reason, maybe he is talented, and there may be some master who is protecting him." ”
The uncle listened to my words, was silent for a long time, and then asked me, "When did you know?" ”
When confronting them, I noticed that something was wrong with them, and naturally I also remembered the unconscious cats roaming the town. Since we are all unconscious, I can only try my best to hold the lives of a few of us, and leaving Cat Demon Island is the only option. ”
Everyone remained silent for a long time, but they didn't expect the truth of the matter to be like this, the cat demon is really an evil creature, and they didn't want to leave a way for those people to live when they committed it.
I said to my uncle: "Zhou Siyu has become like this now, what are you going to do next?" ”
The middle-aged uncle said firmly: "When I met Zhou Siyu, I promised her to take care of her for the rest of my life, no matter what she became, I would take good care of her, and I would take her to a quiet place to live for the rest of my life, knowing that we would all leave this world." After saying this, the middle-aged uncle didn't look at us anymore and walked straight into the cabin. He went to take care of Zhou Siyu.
Zhou Jie sobbed quietly from the moment she heard us talk about Cat Demon Island, and it wasn't until the uncle walked in that she asked me resignedly: "Sister, Li Ming really can't come back." ”
I patted her on the shoulder and told her, "Yes, I can't come back, and even if I do, I'm a living dead without consciousness, what's the point?" All you have to do now is forget! Everything happened here, go back and live a good life. ”
I sighed, I shouldn't have paid too much attention to the strange things, let alone treated them as a joke
Desecrate. I was forced to get involved in these ghosts and gods, and you people, you can live well in a bright place, why did you get involved, now everyone has paid a terrible price.
I think back to the day when the ferry started, if I insisted on preventing them from getting on the boat, then Li Ming might not have died, and they wouldn't have had to go through so much. But it happened, and I regret it! It didn't work either. Moreover, everyone should be held accountable for their own actions. No matter how powerful I am, I can't interfere in all the things in the world.
At this time, while I was thinking, the boat arrived ashore, and the middle-aged uncle didn't say a word of goodbye, but directly put on his bag, picked up Zhou Siyu and left. It's just that when we meet, it's hard to see each other again in the future, and we don't have to see each other again.
The bearded man and I sent a couple of students to safety. I said to them to take care of themselves, and I was ready to leave.
I walked faster and faster, and I knew that I had come up a wide road, so let's get out of here in a car. I thought to myself, at this moment, I heard a slight footstep behind me, someone was actually following me, it was really careless, I turned around, and said angrily, "What person? ”
only to find out that the man was bearded.
When I found the bearded, he blushed and asked me embarrassedly, "Can I recognize you as a master?" ”
I looked at him with a look of fascination and admonished him, "Don't think about it, learning spells is not good, but it will cause you trouble." Let's go. Go and live the life of a normal person. ”
The bearded man did not give up, he stepped forward and persisted
He looked at me: "If you didn't save me this time, I wouldn't have come out alive, so it's very useful to learn magic, Master, you can recognize me as an apprentice, I can endure hardships." ”
I shook him off and walked forward, when a bus came, I jumped directly into the car, I thought he would leave, but unexpectedly, when I sat in the car, I found him sitting next to me. I couldn't smile bitterly, and I left it to him.
At this time, I remembered something, so I turned my head and asked the bearded man: "Why did you not have any effect on the cat demon by changing your body, what is so strange about you?" ’
The bearded man listened to my words, scratched his head, and said with some trouble: "I don't know, obviously I don't have anything different from others, and I don't know any strange people." ”
I didn't know him, and I didn't bother to ask him. But after thinking about it, since he can not be affected by the cat demon, it seems that he is also a person who has a fate with the Tao, why don't I keep him by my side, and I can have another companion on the way to react.
That's it, I decided to keep him.
I looked at him chattering beside me and thought, where should I go next? What's next for me?
