Chapter 51: Imitation
readx;
Where the sea and sky meet, the orange-red sun has just emerged, and the surrounding clouds are gilded with a golden glow. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe sun had not yet fully risen, and it was in a gray hue that was about to be bright, so I wiped my hair and looked into the sea, where the merman was still nearby, but it didn't bark anymore, but swam slowly around our boat, and when my eyes met, its tail immediately slapped quickly on the surface of the sea, as if in response.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the ghost ship disappear, and sat down on the spot one by one, and began to discuss it, glad that the ghost ship did not cause more trouble. Ermazi is not very good-tempered, and said; "It's all to blame on this merman, it's okay to bring us here for something."
Ah Zi speculated: "Although this merman has wisdom, his IQ is limited. It didn't know that the people on this ship were ungrateful, but it probably saw that there was no one on this ship, and that their homes were destroyed, so they asked us for help. ”
Er Mazi said: "What can we ask for help, what can we help it?" Those sharks fled, and the rest of those who didn't flee died. After saying that, he stood on the side of the boat and shouted at the merman: "I say...... Your people have fled, in the direction of the North Pacific, you look in that direction. ”
No matter how high the IQ of this merman is, he can't understand human words, even if it was a family millions of years ago, but now one is a land animal and the other is a marine animal, the gap is still very large.
Drought didn't know why before, it would agree with Tang Linlin's opinion, and now it knew the truth, pondered for a moment, and ordered the navigator to return. At this moment, Zhou Xuanye stopped him and asked him to wait.
"Don't drive the boat, I need to stop here for another day."
As soon as these words came out, the eyes of everyone on the ship looked at Zhou Xuanye, I suppressed the anger in my heart, and couldn't help but say: "We have been delayed at sea for a long time, one more day of delay, there will be more danger, and we will return immediately." ”
The last sentence I said to the drought, and my heart said that it was your benefactor, give me some face. But obviously, that bit of face had been used up, because the drought fish asked Zhou Xuanye for help next, so it glanced at me, moved the corners of its mouth, and said, "Listen to Mr. Zhou's reason." ”
Immediately afterwards, something even more surprising to me appeared, and Ah Zi on the side also said: "Mr. Zhou, is there anything worth staying in this sea area?" "Ah Zi has always had no good impression of the four of us, when he looked at us before, he rolled his eyes, snorted his nose, and walked with his chin raised, but now he is gentle and polite, and Mr. is called. I immediately realized that it must have been Zhou Xuanye's act of letting out the awakening rune last night that touched Ah Zi's girlish heart.
Suddenly, I felt that my heart was sinking directly, because the people on the boat were now facing Zhou Xuanye.
Tang Linlin, who was on the side, glanced at me, leaned over to me, and said in a low voice: "Tiantian, what's the matter with you, what are you doing against Zhou Fox, he will stay for one more day if he wants to stay for one more day." It's strange, you're not usually a dog, but he's the only one who looks at the horse, how did you change sex today? ”
On the other side, Zhou Xuanye glanced at me and said to everyone: "In the ghost boat before, when I looked at the memory of this ghost ship, I found that there was something under the bottom of the sea. This may not be useful to you, but it happens to be of great use to me, so I hope you will stay for a while while I go and salvage it, and if it goes well, it will only be two hours of work, and there will be no need to delay for a day. ”
As he said the last sentence, he looked at me with a provocative look. The people on the boat were not stupid, and they immediately knew that we were in trouble, but the gang also knew who was the one worth pleasing against, and immediately nodded and said that it was no problem, and they were willing to go into the water to help salvage together.
Zhou Xuanye described the appearance of the resurrection stone, and said: "This thing was placed in the original gathering place of the merman, during the tsunami, the undersea mountain stone collapsed, and it was covered by a sunken ship, so it is very difficult to find, don't be anxious when you go into the water, take your time." ”
My opinion didn't matter at all, and the group started to prepare the diving gear.
I stood there and smiled wryly, unable to do anything about the situation.
Tang Linlin saw that something was wrong, tiptoed, reached out and patted me on the shoulder, and said, "Tiantian, what's wrong with you?" ”
I said, "That night, the big octopus attacked us, and Tan Jian transformed into purple hair, do you remember?" ”
Her expression changed and she said she remembered.
I said, "Aren't you curious why?" ”
Tang Linlin tilted her head and thought about it, and said; "Remember when I reminded you to watch out for them? Before, I once accidentally saw that Zhou Fox dug something out of Tan Blade's stomach. ”
I was shocked: "Something dug out of the stomach?" ”
Tang Linlin said: "It's night, I didn't see the whole process clearly, he was too vigilant. However, from that time on, I suspected that Tan Jian was not a living person, and Zhou Xuanye would have been able to refine corpses. ”
I said, "So, a long time ago, you suspected that Tan Jian was a refining corpse? ”
Tang Linlin nodded and said, "It's just that I was sure of that transformation." After a pause, Tang Linlin said: "Actually, I don't care much about their identity, I've been in the office for three and a half years, I have eaten, drunk and played, and no one has hurt me, as long as I live well, everything else doesn't matter." ”
I smiled wryly and said, "You live so easily. ”
Tang Linlin shrugged her shoulders and said: "There are gains and losses, people like me are easy, there is no concern, no one harms me, but in the same way, no one puts me in their hearts, if I die one day, I will die." You are different, although you like to break into troubled waters, and your life is quite tangled, but at least you are remembered, if you have an accident one day, there will be many people who remember you and are willing to help you. My way of life, I got free and carefree, but lost my feelings; Your way of life has gained affection and concern, and you have lost stability; The world is fair, it's just up to you to choose, and if you choose to live like me, I don't mind taking you with me. ”
I said, "You really know how to live, but don't worry, if you die one day, I will miss you." ”
Tang Linlin stood on tiptoe and kissed me on the cheek, and sighed: "So, I still like you the most." Don't divert the topic, tell me, why are you going against Zhou Fox? I don't approve of you doing that. ”
At this moment, the rest of the people had already gone to prepare diving equipment, and Tang Linlin and I were left at the stern, and Tan Jian didn't know where to go. I looked at Tang Linlin's curious look, then sighed, and told the reason for the matter, Tang Linlin heard it, her eyes widened, and she immediately said, "No!" Tan Jian is even the software you described, but in the past three years, he has partnered with me, and he is the one who pays me a salary. ”
Not long ago, I convinced myself that whether it was Zhou Laoer or Zhou Laosan, it was Zhou Xuanye's personality anyway, so I felt that the current Zhou Xuanye and the previous Zhou Xuanye were the same person, but there were some dark sides of human nature.
But now I have found out that this dark side is too big, and it has completely changed Zhou Xuanye.
I always thought that their brotherhood was very deep, after all, they were a teacher and grew up together, but now it seems that I was wrong.
The relationship between Zhou Xuanye and Tan Jian is indeed deep, but that is the same as the previous Tan Jian, the current Tan Jian, what is it for Zhou Xuanye?
No, I can't let this kind of thing happen, Zhou Xuanye has disappeared, do you want my other brother to disappear too?
I was ruthless, dragged Tang Linlin and said, "Let's go, go find Tan Blade." "As long as Tan Jian doesn't cooperate and disagree, is it possible that Zhou Xuanye can still be hard?
Soon, we found Tan Jian on the bow deck, compared to the people on the ship who were busy preparing to go to the sea, Tan Jian seemed very leisurely, and moved a chair to fish on the side of the ship. I snatched the fishing rod back from his hand and said, "Boss, things have come to this point, you give me a word." ”
Tan Jian glanced at me, his expression was still lukewarm, and he slowly took the fishing rod back again, and said, "Listen to him." ”
Tang Linlin said angrily: "But, you will die in this way!" ”
Tan Jian said: "It's not death, it's life." ”
"Boss, do you really think that the dead can be resurrected? Even if the soul is put into this body, it can't change the fact that this body can turn into purple hair. The Corpse King is the Corpse King, and although I don't know how to alchemy, I also know that it is impossible. Why did Zhou Xuanye do such a thing? ”
Tan Jian glanced at me and Tang Linlin deeply, and said, "I am composed of a lot of scattered spirits, so I have the memories of many different people, among which Tan Jian has the most memories. Zhou Xuanye has a twin brother, the two were adopted by Sanziguan since childhood, and I am the first apprentice of Sanziguan, so these two people are brought up by me, and their feelings are like brothers and fathers. My memory is not complete, I only know that that year, Zhou Xuanye made a mistake, because of this mistake, his brother and me, both died. ”
"Because I am the first apprentice, I was refined into a corpse king by the master, this process cost a lot of money, the master has no ability to refine another corpse king, besides, for the sake of Xuanli, there is no need."
The first time I heard these past stories, I wasn't surprised in my heart, because many details told me that Tan Jian would become what he is now, which had a lot to do with Zhou Xuanye. The Xuanli he said in his mouth should be Zhou Xuanye's brother.
Tan Jian continued: "Xuanli is gentle and friendly, upright and upright, and is deeply loved by his peers, while Zhou Xuanye has a somewhat ruthless personality since childhood, is quite scheming, and is good at disguise, so he is not loved by the master, but the relationship between the two brothers is very deep. After that incident, Zhou Xuanye was stimulated too much, so his personality split, and the other personality that split out was the personality that imitated Zhou Xuanli. ”
