Chapter 44: Life History (I)
"Say no more. He couldn't have known the reason for this at the time, he cruelly abandoned me and fled with Awan. Qing Yuan said sadly, but his originally sharp gaze became weak at the moment, and he didn't know when he became scarred. You can forgive Awan, but you can never forgive him. If he comes back, I will kill him decisively. β
"Why do you think he's betrayed you?" Bi Fang couldn't laugh or cry. "Is it just because he saved an innocent person and saved an even greater catastrophe?"
"He lied to me! Every word he says is false! I won't allow anyone on the island to be with humans again! Qing Yuan said hysterically.
"Leader Qingyuan, although we hate each other, I will tell you the truth, your sweetheart and I just like to chat together." Ah Wan said. "After escaping Bird Island, we never saw each other again."
"You don't understand anything! Even if you're telling the truth, I still can't forgive him. The green duck roared. If he really remembered his oath, he would definitely come back. But he didn't, which is enough to show that his heart has long since died. β
Bi Fang suddenly laughed, gently fiddling with his fiery red hair, and even the flames around him jumped with it. "Hehe, Sister Qingyuan is really infatuated, infatuated and timid. I think Sister Qingluan should still love him, otherwise why say so much. β
"I ......" The green duck suddenly became timid, as if it had been hit in a death hole. I hate him to death. β
"Qingyuan, I'll show you one thing, and you'll understand everything." Bi Fang looked at me when he said this. I was supposed to be a bystander to see their love and hate, and she suddenly saw me as something.
"Little brother, why don't you take out that thing in your pants pocket and let Qingyuan take a look."
Pants pockets? I tried to feel for my pocket, and all that was left was the red sachet that had been filled with square feathers, and the fluffy sawdust could still be felt through the silk.
"Is this it?" I was dull for a moment, and then I remembered that before I remembered this place, the Taoist priest had asked me to give this sachet to its owner. It's just that this matter has long been forgotten.
This simple sachet doesn't know what magic power there is, but it makes the green duck lose his mind, and he has a thousand words to say, but he is speechless.
Tears rained down in the shallow eye sockets, and cold tears fell on the hot floor, rising in bursts of white smoke.
She rushed to me desperately, snatched the sachet from me, clutched it in her hand, swallowed tears and made up, and kept silently reciting the birdman language on the sachet. βaraha koaγβ
Araha Koa is I love you.
"If he really abandoned you and forgot you, then this sachet should have turned to ashes a long time ago." Bi Fang said. "You really misunderstood him, the reason why he left Bird Island was to rescue Ah Wan from a disaster, and to find a proof that I still exist. I think he had read a lot of myths and stories before him, studied a lot of ancient books, and guessed everything about Nirvana. β
"Him! He...... Why so stupid? Qingyuan gently put the sachet on her cheek and said stupidly. Why can't he tell me openly? β
"You're so impulsive, you want to kill all the fishmen at once, what can he tell you? He loves you, that's why he wants to help you take it all on. β
The green duck shook its head frantically, the bun on its head was scattered, and its hair was messy, and it looked in a trance. "I don't want to hear this, I just want to know where he is now, sister, tell me quickly, where is he?"
"He's dead."
"What!"
"He's been dead for a long time, almost ten years." Bi Fang said flatly. "After escaping from Bird Island, Ah Wan took me to the Dragon Palace, and then I was washed ashore with the lake, and a passer-by noticed that I was different from other feathers, so he carefully kept me, and then changed hands several times and was discovered by a feather collector. And that feather collector is him, more than ten years of searching, he ran all over the Central Plains cities, with the mentality of gambling to find me, the hard work paid off and was finally found by him, he put me in this sachet you sewn, full of joy ready to come to you, but at that time he had become ill and terminally ill. β
The green duck collapsed to the ground stupidly, tears like pearls, rolling down all over the ground, and the pitiful face made people look like needles, like knives, like thorns in the back.
I had never seen her look like this, and at this moment the white veil on her body seemed so plain, and her eyes became spotless and pure as a child. The domineering aura on his body just now was gone, just like another person.
"Mother ......" even Yuge, who gets along with her day and night, was surprised.
She actually hummed a ballad slowly, her hoarse voice, and the poignant melody really made people cry when they heard it. The birdmen beside her hid their faces and wept, leaving teardrops.
I felt that the wind in the cave suddenly stopped, the grass and trees suddenly stopped falling, the magma stopped flowing, and even the lake at the top of the cave suddenly froze. The bright moonlight outside the cave was also erased, and there seemed to be only that melody left between heaven and earth.
"This is the ancient song of mankind." She muttered to herself.
We were still immersed in the sad song we had just had, when the green duck suddenly flew into the sky, spread its wings, and once again waved her hands in the air like a harp, and the feathers on her wings were constantly shaken off from above. Her brow furrowed, her forehead covered with drops of sweat, her lips twitching slightly.
"I'm going to find him."
I could clearly see the white feathers shining with blood spots in the red light of the hole.
"Mandarin duck! What are you doing here? Bi Fang roared.
"Mother!" Yu Ge was frightened by this sudden scene, and could only keep calling the name of the green mandarin duck.
Qing Yuanyuan didn't plan to stop at all, her hand waved faster, she closed her eyes tightly and didn't look at us again. More and more feathers began to fly in the air, bits of white, like a bleak snowfall.
"Sadness and sadness parting, happy and happy new acquaintances." She recited mournfully.
Bi Fang suddenly flew into the sky, spread the wings of the flames, and dragged the green duck down. All that was left was the charred feathers in the sky, swaying alone in the wind. "Sister Qingyuan, are you crazy? Are you going to kill yourself? β
"Why are you holding me back, I'm going to find him." Qing Yuan's face was resentful.
"You want to be martyred, can you really cruelly abandon yourself and his daughter?" Bi Fang comforted while staring at Yu Ge tenderly. "Isn't it, little sister. Persuade your mother quickly. β
