Chapter 6: The Change of Memory
The sun rises and sets, the tide rises and falls, and the Stygian Sea is like a huge oil paint that stretches across the sky, silently recording the light and shadow of day and night. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info At this time, the Yin Lord and Hui Hui were standing on this picture scroll, quietly waiting for the arrival of the underworld.
After moving his slightly stiff neck, the Yin Lord asked Huihui, "Did you talk to Hanyan about the progress last night?" ”
Huihui nodded: "I said it, but it's the same whether I say it or not, she must know everything in the underworld." ”
Hearing this, the Yin Lord nodded thoughtfully, this is also true.
Then he suddenly thought of something again, and asked Huihui again: "By the way, if the characters here end early, can I go back early?" ”
After glancing at him, Huihui smiled a little strangely and said, "What, are you in a hurry to go back?" ”
The Yin Lord shrugged his shoulders and said, "That's not it, I'm just asking." ”
Watching the sun slowly approach the sea level, Huihui chuckled and said, "If you can finish it early, of course you can leave early." ”
The Yin Lord nodded and didn't say anything more.
Huihui glanced at him, stopped talking, and finally just shook her head silently.
As the sun sank into the Stygian Sea, the huge figure of the Underworld City also quietly appeared. When its figure condensed, the Yin Lord and Huihui did not hesitate and immediately entered inside.
Subconsciously glanced at the towering Tongtian Pavilion in the depths of the underworld, the Yin Lord pursed his lips and said to Huihui, "Let's continue from our previous position." ”
Huihui didn't have any opinion on this, and nodded: "Okay." ”
Walking through the streets sprinkled with lights, the two quickly found where they were at the end of the morning. The Lord took the candlestick out of his pocket, lit the candle on it, went to the next room, pushed open the door and walked in.
Just like last night, Hui Hui still didn't go in with the Yin Lord. She stood outside with her arms crossed, her eyebrows frowning slightly, as if she had something on her mind.
But when the Yin Lord came out of it, she immediately changed her expression, as if she didn't want him to know something. At this time, she found that the Yin Lord was also frowning, so she asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Shaking his head with some hesitation, the Yin Lord didn't say a word, and walked straight to the next room.
Seeing that he was a little abnormal, Hui Hui didn't know what was going on, so she kept watching him before the Yin Lord entered the house. But after her careful observation, she didn't find anything, the Yin Lord was still the same as before, just went in and walked around, and there was nothing special in it, the only anomaly was probably that the Yin Lord paused in it for about a second.
But what does this mean? Hui Hui thought secretly as she stared at the Yin Lord's expression. She keenly noticed that although the Yin Lord's brows were stretched, his expression seemed to be more solemn.
If there are any things and phenomena here that can make the Yin Lord puzzled or uncomfortable, Huihui knows, it must be the handiwork of Han Yan. But what has my own lady arranged here? Han Yan didn't tell her, and the Yin Lord didn't say that she didn't ask, but just silently followed him and continued to move forward.
Subsequently, the Yin Lord seemed to be much more normal, except for the solemnity on his face that had not disappeared, and he couldn't see anything abnormal, at least his brows had been relaxed. But Huihui still found that every time the Yin Lord entered the room, he didn't just walk around inside, but would pause in it for a second or two every time.
Although this detail is not conspicuous, but with the previous anomaly of the Yin Lord, Huihui still believes that he has discovered something. It was probably something that the young lady had arranged, and although she was very interested in it, she also knew that it was none of her business, so she didn't ask much.
And what did the Yin Lord find?
In fact, he didn't notice anything, just felt a little imperceptible change. From the moment he entered the first room tonight, he was keenly aware that there was something abnormal in the room, although it was still just as cold inside, somewhat paralyzing his perception, he could still vaguely feel a trace of abnormality.
It's not the smell, it's not the temperature, it's not the setting. Based on his impressions of last night, he could sense that there was something unusual in the house he walked through tonight, but there was no way to figure out why. Could it be that there is a mystery in these rooms? With this speculation in mind, he began to pay attention to the situation in each room.
Because he needs to keep an eye on all the rooms, there will inevitably be some pauses in the room, although only for a second or two, but the surprise will be evident as it slowly accumulates. At dawn, he walked through a room that was twenty percent less than it had been yesterday.
However, even so, the entire city of the underworld had been almost visited by him, and he had not seen it in the small area near the gate of the city of the underworld.
Seeing that there was a red light in the sky again, the Yin Lord shrugged helplessly and blew out the candle in his hand.
"Looks like it's all over tomorrow." He said to Huihui.
Wen Yan Huihui nodded: "It's going fast, it seems that you can indeed complete the task as soon as possible." ”
Glancing back at the attic, Huihui said again: "Let's go out, we won't be able to get out after a while." So saying, she walked towards the gate.
But I didn't think that the Yin Lord didn't take a step: "Forget it, I want to stay in the underworld today." ”
Slightly surprised, Huihui asked, "What, is it because it's boring outside?" ”
The Yin Lord shook his head: "That's not true, it's just that I want to take a good look at what the underworld looks like during the day." ”
Hearing this, Huihui pursed her lips and didn't say anything. Huihui didn't care about this anyway, after all, to her, there was no difference between inside and outside the city.
Then she took out a handkerchief, shook out some fruit from her sleeve and put it on it, handed it to the Yin Lord, and said, "Well, you eat first, and since I stay in the city today, I will go and pick some fresh ones for you." ”
"I'm tired." The Yin Lord smiled and nodded.
I have to say that the underworld during the day is actually very boring. Without the soft water, surrounded by rows of houses, the Yin Lord stood on the narrow street, as if he was standing in the alley of the human world, but there was less excitement and human atmosphere.
He nibbled on the fruit as he thought about the previous night. He was sure that something had changed inside the city, but he didn't find out where it was or what it was about. And he thought about it all night, and it was not clear whether this change would be good or bad for him and Hades.
But think about it, since Hanyan didn't say anything, it probably wouldn't be a bad thing.
When he thought of the cold smoke, his heart suddenly burst out.
This change can't be about cold smoke, right?
In fact, he couldn't figure out why he was so sensitive to this trivial matter, and it also affected his mood for the night. Now that I think about it, is it because of the cold smoke?
After all, Han Yan said that these rooms were the places where he stored his memories, and the things he sensed in the house must be related to her memories?
After thinking about this, the Yin Lord was calm in his heart. If it's related to the memory of the easy to dye, he doesn't need to care about anything, after all, it's normal for a person's mood to fluctuate, even if it's Hanyan, he will definitely change his mood because of some people or things, it seems that he is making a bit of a fuss.
At this time, Huihui happened to come back, and when she saw the stunned appearance of the Yin Lord, she said with a smile: "What's wrong?" ”
The Yin Lord shook his head, not intending to tell her these things: "It's nothing. ”
took out a square cloth from her sleeve and put it on the ground, Huihui shook out a lot of fruit from her sleeve again, and said, "It's still the same as yesterday, there are only fruits, and it's bitter for you." ”
Hearing this, the Yin Lord smiled: "What is bitter or not, many people will never be able to eat these strange fruits in their lifetime." As he spoke, he gnawed the fruit in his hand on the first floor.
Looking at his gobbling up, Huihui couldn't help but feel funny: "Why do you take such a big bite every time I see you eating, do you have to be in a hurry to eat?" ”
Swallowing the contents of his mouth with great difficulty, the Yin Lord wiped his mouth and said, "Actually, it's not that I'm in a hurry, I'm just used to it." ”
As he spoke, he picked up another fruit: "I used to eat a lot of food, so I had to eat a little faster, so that I could finish it at the same time as others, but now I can't change it if I want to." ”
Hearing him say this, Huihui asked with interest, "Then you have a normal amount of food now?" ”
"Not really, it's just a lot smaller than before." The Yin Lord explained, "The consumption of the physique is much less, so the amount of food is also much smaller. ”
Huihui nodded thoughtfully: "Yes, you are now half a normal person." ”
Then she asked, "Do you need to rest now?" You can go to the Tsuten Loft today. ”
The Yin Lord nodded: "Wait until I'm done." ”
Smiling helplessly, Huihui said, "Don't worry, I won't rob you." ”
Stretching slightly, Huihui sighed and said, "On weekdays, I only pick a few fruits to taste, and Miss doesn't eat them at all, so these fruits have always hung on the branches, fortunately you came, otherwise they don't know how long they will stay on the tree." ”
Hearing this, the Yin Lord raised his eyebrows: "Why do I feel as if I have eaten a lot of fossils?" ”
Huihui smiled: "Actually, it's almost the same, the pile of fruits in front of you is estimated to have been ripe for thousands of years." ”
After hearing what she said, the Yin Lord subconsciously glanced at the water spirit fruit in his hand and smiled helplessly. The Stygian Sea is truly a magical place.
The well-fed Yin Lord was finally able to rest. Although it was good to rest in the Stygian Sea yesterday, there was no bed after all, which made the Yin Lord more or less unaccustomed. And now lying in bed, he can be said to have slept until dark.
It was probably the last night, and after the Yin Lord woke up, he moved his body a little, and the whole person became energetic. In view of yesterday's events, he must be extra serious today, because after all, he is walking in the place where the cold smoke stores his memories, and it is easy to be affected by his mood.
But he still didn't expect that even though he was mentally prepared, he still accidentally landed.
It all went well at first. Every room he entered didn't change except that it was a little colder than before, and he didn't perceive anything unusual. But just as he came to the street facing the gates of the city, he suddenly stopped.
Before he could push open the first door, the Yin Lord felt that his surroundings had become cold. He subconsciously looked around, but found that there was no Huihui.
What's going on? Could it be that you have fallen into the memory of cold smoke?
After thinking about it, he still felt that it was impossible, after all, this was only a part of Hanyan's memory, and even if the remaining telekinesis in it was strong, it was impossible for him to lose himself in an instant. There must have been something else unusual, he thought as he looked around, secretly on guard.
Although he had been to the city of the underworld many times, he had to admit that he didn't know much about this magical place, and there must be some secrets hidden in it that he didn't know yet. And when he faced the situation in front of him and sought a solution, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.
When I first came here, I felt very cold, as if I was standing naked in the ice and snow, and every cell seemed to be frozen. But as he pondered the current situation, the coldness suddenly disappeared.
Like a traveler standing in the warm sunlight after a blizzard, the Yin Lord felt that his frozen cells were rejuvenated one by one, and the whole person slowly came to life. This feeling has not risen to the level of life and death, but it has also made him unforgettable.
Standing in place for a long time, the Yin Lord seemed to be stunned there, motionless, looking like a statue. After a long time, he took a few steps back and walked out of the confines of the street.
When she first came here, Huihui found that the Yin Lord was standing at the entrance of this street and was stunned, as if she had been clicked on the acupoint. But she wasn't surprised or panicked, she knew it must be because of the cold smoke.
If it was only to let the Yin Lord help him sort out his memories that he invited him, Huihui would not believe it if he was killed. She knew in her heart that her young lady must have some purpose to find the Yin Lord, but she didn't know what means she would use. And judging from the situation in front of her, it is probably the means she arranged that has taken effect.
Seeing the Yin Lord standing there blankly, Huihui was not in a hurry, she stood there quietly, watching the candle in the Yin Master's hand slowly burn. Her eyes were golden by the candle flames, and she looked mysterious and seductive.
It wasn't until late at night that the Yin Lord made a move. He slowly took a few steps back, out of the confines of the street, then glanced at her, silent.
"Are you alright?" Huihui asked.
The Yin Lord nodded, still not speaking, or he didn't know what to say. After hesitating for a moment, he finally spoke.
"Let's go back and come back tomorrow night."
