Chapter Seventy-One: Making a Wish
The palace is still the palace they had "seen" before, but this time Wang Ling changed the angle but found that it was different from the previous one, standing in front of the sea god Poseidon, Wang Ling carefully looked at the man in the mythical world, and then slowly took out the two gold coins from his pocket and looked at them and said to Li Xin: "Now I understand a little why these two gold coins are placed in the eyes of that servant, in fact, the designer of this bureau has given us a reminder." ”
Li Xin said: "He's telling us not to be blinded by our eyes, right? ”
Wang Ling nodded and said: "That's right, after all, there is still a glimmer of life left for us, it seems that he doesn't want to put people to death, otherwise we can't do anything to trap us with this skill." ”
"What if I also choose to go left?" She asked.
"That's the will of heaven," Wang Ling said, "In fact, at that juncture, I consciously chose to give up my choice, and giving it to you is not so much gambling as I am evading," he said very sincerely, he continued: "Your life should have been chosen by you, if I chose a result for you but led to a tragedy, wouldn't it be irresponsible to you?" After that, he turned to look at Li Xin, the latter's eyes revealed a sense of disappointment, and he said, "Some disappointment, right?" You feel that your fate has been entrusted to him, but now he wants you to make your own choice. ”
"No," Li Xin reluctantly squeezed out a smile and said, "I probably shouldn't really be a burden to you, I'm causing you trouble." ”
"I guess you'll think so," Wang Ling sighed and said, "You are too smart, smart enough to be able to read a person's mind, in fact, ......" He wanted to say something, but he stopped talking, looking at that familiar face, Wang Ling knew that maybe from now on there would be an extra knot between him and Li Xin, he wanted to say: Actually, I want to give myself to you, no matter whether I live or die, I will be with you......
After all, he couldn't say this, Wang Ling is a very passive person, and in his bones he hopes that the woman will understand one day. But character is innate, you can't force everyone to understand it as you think, because in a woman's heart, once she feels that this man can be trusted, it is to give him everything she has, and that choice should naturally be made by him.
No one is wrong, the wrong is just a small angle, maybe a few years later they recall the six-step choice again may be a smile, they all want each other to choose, but in the end, that result is the best choice, isn't this the so-called follow the heart?
"It's okay," Li Xin quickly adjusted her state, she smiled and said: "It seems that my luck is not bad, it is said that such places can make wishes, can you give me a gold coin?" ”
"Take it," Wang Ling handed over both of them, and Li Xin only took one of them and shook it and said, "Sincerity is spirituality, one is enough." Then she put the gold coin in her hand and whispered to the idol, she prayed very reverently, her brows were furrowed, her chin was slightly lowered, and her face suddenly showed a smile after about half a cigarette, and then she threw the gold coin in her hand into the pool.
Wang Ling asked, what wish did you make just now, and you are still so happy? Li Xin said, I won't tell you.
So Wang Ling touched another gold coin and said: "I don't want to ask God to believe in ghosts, anyway, this gold coin is obtained from here, and the right is to borrow flowers to offer Buddha, and I will also make a wish to try." With that, he walked to the other side of the statue, and Li Xin reminded him: "You have to face God head-on to be effective, how can anyone make a wish to go behind the back?" ”
"God is omnipresent," Wang Ling pointed to the heavens and said: "No matter where we stand, He is always so high, people will always prostrate at the feet of God, you choose the boiling water that represents the yang, then I will choose the cold water that represents the yin, otherwise it will not be unbalanced?" ”
Li Xin, who was a little speechless by his words, had no choice but to watch him tinker there, originally thinking that the guy would take some time, but who knew that it was only a few seconds before and after she heard the sound of gold coins falling into the water.
"So fast?"
"Or else?" He said, "God is very busy, and he uses the stolen gold coins to make a wish, and he has to say a lot, and I am afraid that he will not remember it, so I make the simplest wish." ”
"Am I not too greedy?" She also smiled and said: "That's right, there is nothing to ask for, okay, now that the gods have worshiped and the gold coins have been returned, should we go?" I'm guessing they're already in a mess. ”
Wang Ling nodded and said: "This island is not big, according to the setting here, it should be a banquet hall, the functionality of any building is fundamental, if you are the master here, what will you set up around here?" ”
"Naturally, it's the kitchen and the bathroom." Li Xin said: "The dishes need to be sent when they are steaming, and the host is a person who loves wine, so he naturally needs to wash up after drinking, there must be a secret door here, and such a particular person certainly does not want such a gorgeous room to have an out of place kitchen passage, which will damage the overall style." ”
Tapping is the simplest and most effective method, entities and spaces are destined to have different echoes, and after following Zheng Jiuwu's side for a long time, Wang Ling has also learned. However, the walls here are very thick and need to be put against their ears, so he and Li Xin acted separately, extending from the left and right sides of the door, knocking all the way over, the huge palace was about to finish, and Li Xin suddenly heard a knocking sound from the other end of the wall. "Boom", there was only one sound, and by the time she put her ear back on, the sound was gone.
Seeing her solemn expression, Wang Ling also leaned over and asked, "Found it?" ”
"No, I think I heard someone knocking inside, did you think they found it?"
Wang Ling also put his ear up, but he didn't hear it, so he asked Li Xin to stay where he was and continue to wait, he continued to check the rest of the part, until he knocked on this end and still found nothing, and Li Xin didn't hear that kind of knocking sound again. The two of them are back in trouble, everything here seems to be sealed, are they all wrong?
"Could it be that the real entrance and exit are not here?" Li Xin thought: "For example, the small door we came in, there was a servant standing outside with a lamp, his role was similar to that of a housekeeper, the guests came in from the outside, and we were wasting time here at all." ”
"No," Wang Ling still thought his judgment was correct, and he said, "My intuition tells me that I can get out here, and the road outside is actually not for the living, but for the dead, remember the room with the red wine and the coffin?" ”
"Yes."
Wang Ling continued: "The passage we fell down from is for the dead, there are so many rooms here, where would anyone choose to put the banquet hall deep underground? He pointed to a table directly in front of the statue and said, "You see, of all the tables, only that one has a wine glass on it, and that's where the master is." He walked over and gently picked up the dusty silver wine glass, leaving a circle of traces of time on the table, and looked at the glass, he thought, maybe it was here that the master was drinking in front of the empty hall, and when the prosperity was over, there was nothing more terrible than loneliness.
Suddenly, he heard a slight movement overhead, and when he looked up, he saw that there was a hanging candlestick above his head, which was quite high from the ground, and he wondered who could light the candle above it in such a high position. At least here, they didn't see a ladder or anything like that to climb.
At this moment, the movement was a little louder, and a violent friction sound began to come, and then he felt that something fell into his eyes, so he quickly retreated to the side, only to find that there were scattered dust falling from the original position, and he took Li Xin's hand a little excitedly and said, "I think they found us......"
