Chapter 233: The White Fish Lifts the Siege
I was anxious and moved, the river was cold, but I could feel the warmth on Miao Yu's face, she stopped any movement completely, and just hugged me like that, face to face - I struggled with my hand wrapped in hair, held her shoulder and shook it a few times, I blamed her, blamed her for why she was so stupid.
But Miao Yu's expression was very serene, she couldn't see me in the water, but there was a hint of a smile on the corner of her mouth. She shook her head, as if to say: I want to die with you.
The predicament has been decided, but when I saw the serenity on Miao Yu's face, I wanted her to live more and more. She and I were entangled and sinking, and at the same time, we took out the knife from our bodies with all our might, and the clumps of hair were weak in the water, and only a few strands were cut back and forth.
Before they knew it, the two of them had fallen to the bottom of the river, and little by little the runes that shone brightly dangled around. I can hold on for a while, but in such a situation, is there any other way but to die? I'm extremely unwilling, I'm still young, I still have a lot of responsibilities, I don't want to die like this.
The hardest thing for people to face is just reality. At this moment, I am powerless to change that.
I don't know where in my heart a strange emotion was vented, and I suddenly fell silent. I wondered, what would I do if I really had to die at this point?
If I really want to die, I just want to hug the person in front of me. Through a layer of hair, I reached out and took Miao Yu into my arms for the first time. The moment I hugged her, I suddenly remembered my great-grandmother's babbling words, people live to the end, except for the person who has always been by their side, everything else is actually not important.
We hugged each other, softly and tightly, and nothing could separate the two of us. Miao Yu's lips came over and touched mine, she was very satisfied, and there was no pain and reluctance before she died. At the bottom of such a turbulent river, two people died like this. I wondered how long later, when our bodies surfaced and were recovered, they would feel a kind of broken poignancy when they saw the two people who were still holding each other until they died.
"I will not leave you, life, together, death, together"
Our lips were pressed together, and I could hear the voice from the bottom of Miao Yu's heart. I also closed my eyes, when a person finally can't get rid of bad luck, to have another her by her side, poor and lowly, life and death will not give up, it is undoubtedly a helpless but gratifying ending.
So be it, and the last thoughts in my mind were dispelled by the flow of water and the tumbling sand.
The bodies of the two of us were wrapped in mud and sand, and there was no way to survive at all, and I didn't have any hope in my heart, but after closing my eyes, there was a strange fluctuation in the surrounding water, and I couldn't help but open my eyes, and the flashing runes around me began to shake randomly and irregularly, followed by a sharp and abnormal shadow that rushed down from the water.
The shadow was faster than any of the fastest fish I had ever seen, and it plunged headlong into the water, and when it came closer, I recognized it as a white carp, the white carp that had disappeared for a long time!
The white carp was fast and powerful, and when it pierced to the bottom of the water, it circled around me a few times, looking kind and cheerful, and then it opened its mouth and began to bite the hair wrapped around my and Miao Yu's bodies, the white carp had sharp teeth, and it was very flexible in the water, and the hair that was cut with a knife was bitten off by it.
Seeing the white carp biting at the hair, hope suddenly sprouted in my already dead heart, and I grabbed the knife and began to help. In a short time, a hole was bitten out of the net-like hair, and I immediately pulled Miao Yu out of it, and several human heads dragged the messy hair closer, and the white carp flicked its tail in front of me, and the strong current pushed several human heads out.
The huge white fish swam around my body twice, this is the fish raised by my grandfather, I don't know how many years it has lived, it has been human, as if it can recognize me, after swimming around affectionately and anxiously twice, it will support me to float towards the water. There were no shackles on my body, and I swam fast myself, holding Miao Yu with one hand. We were about to run out of breath, and before we could rise to the surface, a mess of things above dived into the water and approached us.
Sou
The white carp is like a sharp arrow shot out, swam from the bottom of the head, one knocked the two frontmost wooden people out of the air, several clay figurines on the ancient carriage clumsily wanted to squeeze the white carp, but could not succeed, the white carp deftly swam out of the gap, bit a blood baby, flung head-on, the blood baby was torn in half, floating in the water.
The white carp rampage, bumping back and forth a few times around, but we were still surrounded, one by one shadows were constantly rushing, layer upon layer, the white carp was flexible, but could not take care of everything, bypassing the two terracotta figurines, there were two black balls full of sharp blades behind the cold flashed, the white carp turned around, it had no life to protect itself, the sharp blade was attached to the fish body, and suddenly was drawn a deep wound.
The white carp swam anxiously, as if angry, it was no longer entangled with the things around it, bright red blood spilled out, the white carp's almost jade-like body, all the fish bones were clearly visible, the flesh and blood suddenly flashed a little bit of gold-like light, the surrounding wooden people withdrew a large piece, and even the heavy terracotta figurines shook to dodge.
The white carp took me and rushed forward, that little bit of golden light was like a strange kind of magic, the hundred evils retreated, the Zhenhe mirror was dyed with a trace of fish blood, and it emitted a light red light, the two forces merged together, so that the evil was very evasive, and the white carp swam forward desperately, knocking away the things that occasionally rushed out of the mess. We followed the white carp as we swam vigorously, and the big bull specially made by the live Luban family roared to the front. The white carp didn't even have the intention of dodging, and hit it headlong, and the fish body was like a sharp sword, rushing past the wooden ox, and poofed out of a hole. I swam along, stumbling on the bull's head with both hands, and with all my might, breaking it off. The wooden ox floated on all fours facing the sky, and the barrier was temporarily swept away.
This time it rushed far away, and the white carp turned around and swam behind us, blocking everything that was in pursuit. The little golden light on its body is always extinguished, and it has a strong deterrent. I felt that I had escaped from the encirclement, but I did not dare to show my head, these things would not appear for no reason, and there must be enemies hidden on the river beach. I dragged Miao Yu all the way to dive, drifting from the water to the front for at least seven or eight miles, and the white carp then quickly followed, a fish, two people, swimming together for a few miles, before completely surfaced.
As soon as I got out of trouble, the white carp rubbed back and forth beside me a few times, and his expression was very intimate. I saw a big frightening wound on its body, and the fish's head was broken, but I didn't know it. I was afraid that it would not be able to hold on if it was too badly injured, so I reached out and touched the head of the fish, and the white carp happily flicked its tail, as if to signal that it was okay.
When I got to a safe place, I took Miao Yu ashore and squatted in the shallow water. Miao Yu likes this white fish very much and teases it, but the white carp only recognizes me and is not sticky with Miao Yu.
"This fish has a lot of origins." Miao Yu looked at it and said, "I was raised by a master." ”
"How?" I looked at the wounds on the white carp and said, "Can you see anything?" ”
Miao Yu explained to me that fish is a wild thing. In the realm of those cultivators, people are the spirits of all things, and entering the two disciplines of Buddhism and Taoism to practice is inherently advantageous, but other things are very difficult. Like the old man I saw before, I don't know how many years it took to cultivate to that point.
And the white carp in front of him is a little special, it can't transform into a human form like Hua Laohan and Lao Fuba, but it won't live for a shorter time than the latter two. I suddenly wondered in my heart, this white carp appeared in the story of the Pai Jiao, and I knew that it was raised by my grandfather.
When Miao Yu heard this, she laughed out loud and said, "Don't talk about your grandfather, even if your grandfather's grandfather is not born yet, this fish must already be there." ”
This white carp, didn't grandpa raise it when he was a child? It has been around for a long time, why would it be kept by grandpa? Always following around? And now, why did it leave Grandpa to wander in the big river again? When I think about it, I'm a little scared, if it weren't for the white carp leaving Grandpa, it is likely that he would not have met us here today.
"The first person to raise this fish must be a very powerful person with ability." Miao Yu continued to look at it, and gently touched the wound of the white carp with his hand, the white carp was in pain, flicked its tail restlessly, and slapped us all over the water, Miao Yu didn't mind, wiped the water on his face, and said: "It can live so long because the people who raised it have blessed it with things." ”
According to Miao Yu, the white carp does not practice like Hua Laohan, it has always lived carefree like other fish in the river, but because of that blessing, it can live for so long.
"Where is its blessing?"
"You can see it when you open its wounds."
I couldn't bear to touch the white carp's wound anymore, but I always had to give it some medicine and find a way to wrap it up. I stiffened my head and moved the wound on the white carp's body, this thing is really spiritual, Miao Yu wants to move, it won't let it, but as soon as I stretch out my hand, it endures the pain, and it doesn't move, only the tail is constantly flicking, as if the pain is a little unbearable.
The wound was very deep, and the bone was already visible, and the main spine on the body of such a big fish was like a bone. Now out of the water, but there is still a faint light in the wound on the white carp's body.
I picked up the wound slightly, and at a glance I saw something on the main spine of the white carp, and at that moment, I was very surprised, I didn't expect that the blessing on the white carp would be this.
