Chapter Seventy-Five: Mandarin Duck Eyes
Mandarin duck eyes, a pair of eyes that are both favored by angels and cursed by demons.
If you look directly for too long, you will lose your eyesight at least and lose your life at worst, and it has a strong penetrating power, so even if you are blindfolded, as long as you meet the eyes of the mandarin duck, it will also cause unimaginable consequences.
And such a pair of eyes, Lou Jingtai has not seen them for a long time, this time I actually saw such a little girl holding a pair of mandarin duck eyes in the territory of the sake fairy, if it was...
He didn't dare to resemble the consequences!
The reason why it is called mandarin duck eyes is because the pupil color of the two eyes can change from one to each other, one of which is silver and the other is gold.
Legend has it that the silver one is the angel's favored eye color and can bring the dead back to life, while the golden one is the demon-cursed eye color, which can penetrate the brain through the pupils of any living being, causing cerebral palsy or outright death.
It stands to reason that there is a silver pupil that can bring the dead back to life, but the people with mandarin duck eyes have never snatched people from Lord Yama, but have sent them to see Lord Yama.
Over the past few hundred years, people with mandarin duck eyes have undoubtedly been killed because their danger is immeasurable to them, or they are all called ominous people.
Lou Jingtai stood on the pavilion and pondered for a long time.
That girl... Can't let her stay in sake wonderland, absolutely!
Hua Tianjiu didn't know Lou Jingtai's idea of sending Yuanzi away at this time, she was sitting in Yuanzi's boudoir at this time, Yuanzi was lying on the bed and was asleep, and the bruises on her neck were clearly visible.
Hua Tianjiu pursed her lips, she has adopted Yuanzi for three years, and when she first met her, she was in the bamboo forest of Nanyan City, that is, near the forest leading to the sake fairyland, when she first met her, the whole person was in a mess, her hair was like straw, her clothes were tattered, and her body was full of scars.
But these were superficial, she didn't see her eyes at the time, and she reached out to help but she shivered and avoided it.
With their heads down, they just thought she was scared.
Later, Hua Tianjiu simply asked Mozhi to knock him out and beat him back, but he didn't expect that just after returning to the sake fairyland, Mozhi was in a coma with her on his back.
Hua Tianjiu didn't know why, but when she accidentally glanced at Yuanzi's eyes, her eyes were stinging and unbearable.
In the end, I couldn't just twist her head and treat her without looking into her eyes.
When she learned that Yuanzi was a mandarin duck eye, Hua Tianjiu's surprise was no less than Lou Jingtai's, but after hesitating, she still decided to keep her.
The child was also very well-behaved, and since he had recovered from his injuries, he only asked someone to send him a letter of apology and told them that it was okay to talk to her without looking her eyes.
Hua Tianjiu knew that this child was sensible, and he didn't bother, never did anything that bothered them, and he lowered his head when he met her.
——
"Yuanzi, get up and eat something when you wake up, my sister will go first."
Hua Tianjiu put the food plate on the table and glanced back.
This child must not want to see them now, because the people of Sake Wonderland will more or less accidentally meet her eyes, and the most serious of them may be Mozhi, who has been in a coma for more than three months.
The little girl knew that she was so sad that her eyes were swollen from crying.
But he didn't dare to look at Mozhi's face.
Lying on the bed and pretending to be asleep, Yuanzi bit her fingers, and tears soaked the mattress.
She didn't want to have such eyes.
Once upon a time, she wanted to poke herself blind, but Grandpa Wu said that even if she poked herself blind, the mandarin duck eyes would grow back on their own, and the process of growth was even more painful.
She is grateful to Hua Tianjiu, she rarely appears in front of everyone for the sake of the people in the sake fairyland, and she doesn't want to have a second sister Mozhi.
——
"Isn't it guilty?"
Yuanzi's body trembled and wrapped the quilt tightly.
The sound frightened her, and she almost died at his hands.
Lou Jingtai leaned against the door and sneered: "Do you think you can live your life in a mess by hiding?" ”
Lou Jingtai touched the corner of his lips and poured himself a cup of tea.
"People with mandarin duck eyes live extremely long, twice as fast as ordinary people and heal faster than three times as fast as ordinary people, that is..."
Lou Jingtai bent his eyebrows, and leaned forward and said, "Even if your sisters are dead, you are still alive in the world, not to mention that you are only fifteen years old now." ”
After drinking a cup of tea, he smacked his lips, this is the sorrow of a person with mandarin duck eyes, who lives extremely long and is difficult to die.
A hundred years ago, people with mandarin duck eyes had a maximum lifespan of more than 260 years, and aging was extremely slow.
He was in pain when he lived in the world, and finally chose to end himself with a knife.
Yuanzi sobbed constantly, and her mind didn't know what she was thinking.
Lou Jingtai smiled, he had no doubt that this child would collapse psychologically, she was raised by the people of Sake Wonderland, and letting her watch the people of Sake Wonderland die one by one had no intention of making her completely collapse.
"You... What do you want?! Yuanzi poked out a small head and cried a little.
Lou Jingtai looked up to the sky and sighed: "If you continue to stay here, your life is meaningless, it's better to..."
Lou Jingtai smiled, this child is a good one after all, and it is okay to save it, but it is still very difficult.
Yuanzi sat alone on the bed and was silent, the window was ajar, and the cool breeze was blowing, but she felt extremely cold.
Since she was born, her parents died, her grandmother died, her grandfather died, and no one who looked at her directly for more than a cup of tea has survived.
The people in the village did not kill her, she was driven out of the village and wandered alone, because she had lost count of the dead people in her eyes, she thought she would die quickly, but she did not expect that the wound on the skin and flesh of the beating had already scabbed within three days.
But in the bottom of her heart, someone told her that you can't die, she hated her eyes to death, and she also tried to blindfold but it was useless.
The sky in Sake Wonderland is always blue, and when the young lady is in a good mood, the fog is particularly thick, and her mood is also happy.
During the time that the young lady followed the Ning Pavilion Master out, she stayed in the house every day, looking at the entrance through a small window.
She can touch those plants and watch them thrive, and she's happy.
But she can't see any creature that has eyes.
——
Hua Tingjiu lay on the tatami mat on her side, watching the movement in the pond with a pair of beautiful eyes.
After a long time, she sat up and took a sip from her glass.
"Green Branch, has Yuanzi ever been to this pool?"
Green Branch put down the flower basket in her hand and thought about it: "It seems that she has indeed been here, and Green Branch saw her walking by this pool that day, but as soon as she saw me, she quickly ran away." ”
It's also strange to say, Yuanzi usually doesn't like to go out, but she was cautious that day, and I don't know what she was doing.
Hua Tianjiu pursed his lips: "The fish in this pond are all dead." ”
Green Branch turned his head in amazement, dead?
sighed: "That girl has grown up and has ideas, and she must have looked directly at the fish in the pond." ”
She should also think that this child is so big, even if a pair of eyes make her hate, but she always has a curiosity about the world.
Green Branch exhaled with difficulty, this is also a matter of no choice.
"But miss, these fish are not even the carcasses."
Even if the girl kills all these fish, what about the corpses?
Hua Tianjiu lifted the curtain and cut a lotus leaf.
"What do you say?"
Green Branch looked at the emerald green lotus leaves, and lowered his head a little sadly.
"Don't be sad about the spring and autumn, just bring some fish and shrimp over, there are always some living creatures in this pool, don't mention this matter again."
Hua Tianjiu stroked the lotus leaves, and the withering trend not long ago has become "slim and elegant" today, and it is difficult to think about it.
The green branch blessed the body and answered the voice.
But looking at the lotus leaves in the pool, she couldn't help but feel distressed.
Hua Tianjiu couldn't see what was going on in this Nizi's mind, but she couldn't help it.
After all, Yuanzi didn't bring it up themselves, and they couldn't make their own decisions.
Hua Tianjiu gathered his sleeves, wrapped his cloak, and the wind rose.
Hua Ning was busy in the pharmacy without an old man, and the return of the second Horcrux undoubtedly bought him more time, and now the two Horcruxes were in his hands, and the beads and earrings were still useless and returned to him by Lou Jingtai.
But no matter how much he tried to figure it out, the two things didn't react at all, let alone glow blue like last time.
"Okay Ning'er, these Soul Guards are all spiritual, just that blue bead has already given birth to spiritual wisdom, will the next Soul Keeper be simple?"
The old man stroked his beard from nowhere, he believed that these things had their own independent consciousness, and it was impossible to break them by force, so it was better to just wait quietly for the opportunity to come.
Hua Ning stopped researching, frowned slightly, and was not entangled anymore.
"Pavilion Master Ning! Something happened! ”
Mo Zhi ran in in a hurry, sweat oozing from his forehead.
When Hua Ning saw that she changed her usual cold temperament and was so impatient, she knew that something big must have happened.
"What's wrong? Don't rush to speak slowly. ”
Hua Ning comforted and handed over a cup of tea, Mo Zhi shook his head and gasped and said, "Yuanzi is gone!" ”
Hua Ning opened his eyes and was stunned for a moment: "Yuanzi is gone?!" ”
It's really a bit of a big trouble now, Yuanzi's eyes are special, and it's really a big deal to disappear all of a sudden.
Nanyan City may be a big mess again!
"When did you not see it?!"
Hua Ning became serious, nodded to Grandpa Wu, and followed Mozhi to speed up his pace to Yuanzi's courtyard.
It was empty, the clothes and jewelry were still there, but the people were gone, the mattress had been folded neatly, and the table was neatly arranged.
Hua Tianjiu sat motionless on the round stool, still holding a piece of paper in her hand, Hua Ning patted her shoulder, took the paper from her hand, and saw the contents of it...
Hua Ning sighed lightly, looking at the creases on the paper, she also knew how complicated the girl was at the moment.
"Girl, that's it..."
Hua Ning patted her on the shoulder, only to find that her body was stiff, but he didn't know how to comfort her.
Hua Tianjiu lowered her head and covered her cheeks: "She is only fifteen years old, how can I bear it." ”
Hua Tianjiu covered her sore head, wondering if the path she chose would not forget her original intention?
