Chapter 12: Choices (Part II)

Magical things always attract children, at first he thought it was just a simple water hole, formed by the environment, but something magical happened to his originally wet shoes, which made him not curious, and he decided to go down and have a look.

He is not worried about this, because he has been very good at water since he was a child, not because of how hard he has worked to learn. But once the teacher took them to the river to experience learning, and Xiaobai directly pushed him into the river while he was unprepared. That time he thought he was almost drowning, but after the incident, he didn't complain about Xiaobai, not because Xiaobai didn't know that he didn't understand water, but because he understood some truths, and he wouldn't die soon after water·····

He put his foot in the hole first, and nothing happened. Now he was more relieved, and then slowly put his lower body into the hole, took a deep breath and slowly let go of his hand····· Hearing only a "bang", he burrowed into the water hole.

Diving into the water, he slowly opened his eyes and looked around, there were many bright lights in the water, these bright lights were not the refraction of the light above, but the light emitted by these firefly-like points of light together. He had never heard of all this, and he had read a lot of books over the years, and although he had almost forgotten it, he was sure that such things were also recorded in the books.

Such a miraculous thing was obviously fatal to a child, and he swam into a piece of light, only to find that the light had dispersed when he swam past, but how he swam, the stars always kept a distance from him. When he was about to turn around to look for the other "fireflies", he suddenly turned around and found that there were many large "fireflies" approaching him behind him, and although these balls of light were the same size as him, he couldn't see what was inside.

As he observed the orb, he didn't notice that the other orbs had surrounded him. When he came back to his senses, he noticed this scene, and he spun around and looked at the balls of light.

As he observed these orbs of light, they were also observing him.

These balls of light suddenly became conscious, giving the little boy in front of him a hint. Xiao Ye suddenly had a voice in his head, this voice seemed to say, "Choose me, I can make your body strong" Hearing this sentence clearly, he suddenly looked back at a ball of light. He knew it was what the ball of light was trying to convey to him.

More and more voices after another "Choose me, I can make your talent higher", "I can make you smarter", "I can make you physically free", ·········" I can make you stupid!" Hearing what this ball of light said, Xiao Ye almost laughed, and suddenly laughed out a large part of his breath, he was about to stay underwater, no one knew if there would be such a good thing waiting for him after going up and coming down, the only thing he knew was that he had seen something he liked before, so he asked his father on the spot to ask for it, and he would not come back the next day.

That's when he knew that his time was running out and that he had to make a choice.

At this moment, a voice sounded again, "I can make you stronger", he didn't say anything about getting stronger, just emphasized the word become stronger. Xiao Ye looked up, and a large ball of light was above his head.

It was clear that this orb of light was the strongest one, and when he looked around, and as he was about to make a decision, he found a very small orb of light behind many of them. He was a little curious at this time, and he took the initiative to swim towards this small ball of light this time. He couldn't speak, but he wanted to ask about the little ball of light, and he thought "what can you do" and he tried to communicate with the little ball of light.

The little ball of light reacted, and he tried to think again, "Hey, can you hear me?" When he was disappointed and about to leave, the little ball of light shook a little, as if he had just woken up.

"I don't want to go out!

Hearing this, Xiao Ye became interested, but at this time he was already a little uncomfortable, there was very little time left, and he needed to choose and go out immediately.

He looked at the small ball of light, looked at it, and found that there was a reflection in the ball of light, and he looked at it carefully. Slowly finding that this reflection was getting clearer and clearer, he tried to see this reflection clearly. Suddenly, it became clear, and the reflection became a person, and he was surprised that what was reflected in this small ball of light was actually himself. He was a little surprised!

After being surprised, he didn't hesitate to look back at the largest ball of light, and found that it was some distance away from him, and he was about to lose it.

He looked at the little ball of light and thought, "Death is death, it's you!" When his hand reached into the small ball of light, the small ball of light emitted a strong light, and the light was too strong for him to open his eyes for a while.

I don't know how long it took...

He awoke suddenly, and found himself crouching, his hands in the water of the hole. It all seemed like a dream, but it was real.

Xiao Ye didn't know if it was a dream just now, he only vaguely remembered that when the little ball of light emitted a dazzling light, he lost most of his consciousness, as if the starlight around him was entering his body, and it didn't take long for him to pass out completely.

Looking at his wet hands, he was sure that it wasn't a dream.

The blue eyes faded and turned back to black. He didn't know why he believed it like that, and it suddenly occurred to him that if all this was a dream, he would definitely be scolded half to death by his teacher and father if he went back empty-handed.

He sighed and leaned against the stone platform. He thought of something again, and turned to look at the stone platform, where the sword was still there. He let out a sigh of relief, and his heart relaxed.

Xiao Ye rested for a moment and then got up and looked at the sword on the stone platform, although this sword was all bright silver, but it was blue, which was different from the teacher's sword, which was bright silver all over the body.

He stared at the sword carefully, and the minutes passed. He moved, and he was ready to try to draw his sword.

His movements were fast, there was no superfluous movement, he jumped on the stone platform and stretched out his hand to draw his sword, and when his hand quickly touched the hilt of the sword, a change occurred.

His hand was not far from the hilt of the sword, and it seemed that he could hold it in the next second. But at this moment an invisible force was holding him back, his hand could not move forward an inch, he didn't think too much, he was trying to make his hand touch the sword.

At the same time, his eyes turned blue again, and his eyes were stubbornly admonishing the sword, and looking at the pale blue light that suddenly appeared on the sword, he now understood that it was the sword that was resisting him.

He was almost unable to hold it anymore, and he suddenly shouted "Ahh

I saw that Xiao Ye's hand was flicked away, and the sword glowed with a pale blue light, and he fell off the stone platform and rolled a few meters away. He didn't pass out, he was gasping for air, he was slumped on the ground and didn't move.

After exhausting all his strength, he now wants to sleep beautifully. But there was a sudden sharp pain in his hand, and he hurriedly raised his hand to look at it, only then did he realize that he had turned into a bloody hand. The intense pain caused Xiao Ye to roll underground and shout "It hurts me"

After a while, he used his other left hand to tie his teeth and tore his clothes and wrapped his right hand. He didn't know if it worked, but after wrapping it, he found that it didn't hurt so much. I don't know if it's adaptation, or it's a psychological effect.

Looking at the hands that didn't hurt so much, he slowly felt that his eyes couldn't be opened, and he was very tired now, and he fell asleep unconsciously.

~

I don't know how long he slept, but then he woke up naturally, feeling that his whole arm couldn't move, and the pain caused by overexertion. He still wants to continue to sleep for a while.

But he knew he had to do something about it now.

He sat up, looked at the sword on the stone platform, and then looked at his palm, thinking, what a powerful sword!

He got up and walked towards the stone platform, he was not afraid, because he still had a hand. If you can't succeed, then you can only go home and ask your father to make a sword for yourself, the one you valued last time. He's already figured it out

He didn't rush to try, he looked around, and then circled around the stone platform, but he didn't find anything.

Somewhat disappointed, he sat under the stone platform, looking at the water in the water hole, and lost his mind for a moment. Suddenly, he thought of something and stood up suddenly.

He looked at the water hole, and then at his bad hands.
