225, let me take you home!
Inluo's eyes stared at her quietly for a long time, and finally bowed lightly, "Then you go." β
"Thank you, Major General!" Getting Inluo's approval, Xia Xihe's face was full of excitement.
Yin Luo easily melted away the solid ice around him, watched Xia Xihe flutter, and swam down again, he shook his head slightly helplessly, and said in his heart: Could it be that she thinks she wants to forcibly take the star essence? Scold.
Xia Xihe dived dozens of meters, and it was pitch black all around, and she couldn't see it with her eyes.
Since this lake water is fused by Chenglan's ability, then she must be able to hear Chenglan speak.
"Suck-" Xia Xihe took a deep breath and shouted in the lake with his loudest voice, "Cheng-Lan-"
"I know you'll be able to hear me! I'm here to tell you! You've been waiting for so many years, since you can't wait for your family to come to you! Then I'll take you home! β
"Take you homeβ" The bottom of the lake rippled, and these four words echoed around them over and over again.
"Go home...... a shadow slowly condensed in the distance, muttering these two words in a low voice.
"Although my strength is very weak now, it may be difficult to fulfill this promise for a while, but I can promise you that as long as I am alive, I will definitely take you home! Trust me! Xia Xihe's voice was sonorous and powerful, and her resolute face was full of sincerity.
The shadow flickered slightly, as if touched by her words.
"Chenglan! Let me take you home! Xia Xihe shouted loudly at the back.
The voice seemed to penetrate people's hearts and struck hard in Chenglan's heart.
"Chenglan! Let me take you home! β
Her empty eyes slowly looked at Xia Xihe, a little hesitant, a little hesitant, and a little overwhelmed.
Was that person really willing to take her home?
"Chenglan! Let me take you home! β
Xia Xihe smiled sincerely towards the shadows, her voice became louder and louder each time, and every time it became higher and higher!
The shadow in the distance shook more and more, and finally she responded with all her might, with a little crying, with a little grievance, "I...... I want to go home! Please take me homeβ"
"Take me home...... Take me home......" Her voice echoed throughout the bottom of the lake, as if it were her cry that had been silent for a thousand years.
"I want to go home! I want to go back and see my mom and dad again! I want to go back to Lanhai and see the beautiful sea! Please, take me home! The obsession that had accumulated for her for thousands of years finally erupted at this moment that was no longer concealed!
Leaving home at a young age, experiencing deception and hurt, and finally dying in a foreign land......
What she regretted most before her death was that she couldn't apologize to his family, because it was her willfulness that made them worried......
"I'll take you home." Xia Xihe swam towards the shadow step by step, and then slowly hugged her, his tone firm.
"Thank you...... Woo-woo......" The shadow trembled and cried softly.
"Don't be afraid, I'll always be there, I'll take you home, and all the suffering is over." Xia Xihe gently stroked her and said softly.
"But...... I waited so long and they didn't come, did they not forgive me for my willfulness at the beginning, so ...... Don't want to come and see me at all? Although the shadow could not see clearly, it had a pair of hollow eye sockets, and two lines of bloody tears on his cheeks.
"No!" Xia Xihe decisively denied it and explained, "They must be very worried about you, but they have to be delayed for some reasons!" So, you don't have to think about it, just wait for me to take you home! β
She was entangled for a moment and was persuaded by Xia Xihe, and happily responded, "Hmm! After a pause, he seemed to think of something again, and a shadow pulled Xia Xihe over, "You come with me." β
After that, he took Xia Xihe to the previous stone cave.
"I know you're here for this star, and now that you're willing to take me home, there's no need for this place to exist, and in return, I'll give you this star." The shadow handed the translucent 'crystal ball' to Xia Xihe.
Xia Xihe was slightly stunned, but she didn't expect that just her verbal oath, Chenglan was willing to hand over this star essence to herself, this kind of trust made Xia Xihe inexplicably have a little more complicated feelings.
"You just gave me this, aren't you afraid that what I just said was a lie to you?" Xia Xihe didn't take the star essence, but asked.
"Because I want to believe you!" She was obviously just a shadow, but Xia Xihe felt that she was laughing, a very bright smile.
"Really...... Thank you for believing in me. We're just paying lip service, but I'm going to do it. Xia Xihe shook his fists and said solemnly.
She doesn't want to live up to such trust!
Chenglan stuffed the star essence into Xia Xihe's hand, and at the same time, the shadow spread again, and an azure water drop suddenly appeared in the air.
As soon as this azure water droplet appeared, the entire cave began to ripple, emitting a pale blue glow, illuminating the entire cave as bright as day!
The bursts of energy transmitted from the water droplets were majestic and rich, and with just one glance, Xia Xihe judged the extraordinaryness of this thing.
"This is the Fishman Bead that is condensed by the energy of each fishman who has practiced for many years, and it is where every fishman has cultivated all his life...... And this one is my Fish Man Bead, which contains the energy of a tenth-level supernatural being. Chenglan explained for Xia Xihe.
"Fish-man bead ......" Xia Xihe felt that this word was a little familiar at first, and then remembered that she remembered it wrong, and the vicious woman in the dream was talking about Lingyuzhu, not Yurenzhu.
"Actually...... The Lingyu Bead is made of the Fish-Man Bead, and the Fish-Man Bead is the main material for refining the Lingyu Bead. Chenglan seemed to see through Xia Xihe's thoughts, and slowly explained for her.
Originally, this secret technique was born in order to allow those who were about to pass away to create more advantageous talents for their offspring.
Later, the existence of this thing gradually became a nightmare for the fish-people.
Because all the cultivators are starting to peep, who doesn't want to have great strength without practicing?
After Cheng Lan finished speaking, he lowered his hollow eyes slightly.
"Then tell me what to do!" Xia Xihe stepped forward to cover the brilliance of the fish-man beads, then stuffed it into the shadows of Chenglan, looked around nervously, and said, "Don't you know that wealth is not exposed?" You've got to hide it! Don't take it out again! Fortunately, this time it was for me to see, if it was seen by someone with ulterior motives, what would it be? Hide, hide! β
"Poof-" Chenglan suddenly laughed, and the light laughter hadn't been uttered for a long time.
"You're still laughing? You're testing my ability to withstand temptation! Xia Xihe deliberately bared his teeth and glared at her.
"It's okay, this is just the main material, it still takes many steps to turn it into a spirit fish bead, and only the elder-level fish of the fish people know how to refine it." Chenglan is not another way to test Xia Xihe.
If Xia Xihe had any desire to possess the fish and human beads at that moment, she would kill her directly......
It's just that Xia Xihe's reaction at that moment knocked into Chenglan's heart again, so she smiled happily from the bottom of her heart.
"Hide it!" Xia Xihe rolled his eyes, paused, and said, "But how can I take you out of here?" Can I use a space ring? β
Cheng Lan shook his head and handed the Fishman Bead to Xia Xihe again, "The Fishman Bead is me, it can be used to store my body, and then you can put it in the space ring with you." β
"So what am I going to do?" Xia Xihe asked.
"You don't have to do anything."
Cheng Lan's black shadow suddenly spread slowly, like a black point of light slowly melting into the figure leaning on the cave not far away.
After all the black points of light melted into the figure, the tail fin of the fish's tail of the figure curled up against the cave suddenly fanned slightly.
Immediately, the beautiful face that was pillowed on the overlapping arms between the foreheads bloomed under the faint blue light, and the empty eyes looked in the direction where Xia Xihe was, raising a shallow smile.
"Wow-" The fishtail swung slightly, and the narrow space was suddenly filled with a warm light, and Chenglan was surrounded by a shiny pearl light that illuminated the entire cave!
In an instant, this place is like a fairyland on earth, dreamy and gorgeous.
Chenglan's huge arc and graceful figure swayed back and forth in the cave, she seemed to have a magical purification ability, and with the swaying of her fishtail, the originally dark lake water was lit up by crystal, and instantly turned into a blue lake!
Chenglan jumped towards the fish-man bead in Xia Xihe's hand, and the huge figure quickly became smaller in an instant, leaping into the azure fish-man bead.
In just a moment, a strange light emitted from the azure fish-man bead.
"Ugh." Suddenly, the dazzling light quickly condensed into a clear shape, and the huge fishtail swung and led from the gap to the lake outside.
Xia Xihe was stunned for a moment, and followed the crystal to swim out of the stone crack.
"This is ......" Xia Xihe looked at everything in front of him, and his obsidian eyes were undisguised moving.
The mermaid, sparkling with dazzling brilliance, swayed its huge tail and slowly swam along the bottom of the lake towards the shore above.
Everywhere he passed, he was lit up by the sparkle left between the swaying of the fishtail.
The black water of the lake dissipated and turned into a clear blue lake like a sapphire, and at the same time, the colorful pebbles hidden under the lake water seemed to have finally been unveiled from the curtain covering its body, reflecting the colorful brilliance!
The sparkling mermaid soared upward, and everywhere it passed, everything was purified and restored!
"Wow!" The sparkling mermaid swam up to the shore of the lake, jumped in the shape of a crescent, and fell back into the lake again.
At this time, the crystal light of the mermaid's body turned into countless points of light, like a meteor shower, falling from the surface of the lake to the bottom of each lake.
In an instant, the warm sunlight shines from the surface of the lake to the bottom of the lake, illuminating this thousand-year-old haze!
