42 | Culvert pearls
The Hanshui pearl that was close at hand no longer even emitted a dazzling white light, and the demon couldn't help but reach out her hand, but just as she was about to hold the pearl, the movement of her hand stopped.
Because the demon suddenly realized that everything that happened now seemed to be a bit too coincidental.
She was first lured into the cave by the sound of an unknown lute. In the cave, he also found the island and the pearl of the water that he had in mind.
The demon didn't think she would have such good luck, and she slowly retracted her hand and returned to the island.
The moment the demon landed on the island, the heaven and the earth were turned upside down in an instant, and countless seawater from nowhere fell from the sky and engulfed the demon.
Just when the demon felt that he was about to suffocate, the boundless sea water shattered and disillusioned along with the upside-down and rotating scene around him, and the demon gasped for breath, and the scene in front of him gradually condensed.
He Luoyu puffed out his mouth and looked at the demon with a smile: "You have withstood the test and have not disappointed this great immortal." ”
"Yu Daxian, it turns out that everything I just experienced is just your test?" The demon secretly rejoiced that he was not carried away by desire at the last moment.
"Ben Daisen wants to know, what did you see at the last moment?" A hint of cunning flashed in He Luoyu's eyes.
"Yu Daxian, don't joke with me, isn't everything I just experienced an illusion created by you?"
"Of course not, this great immortal just awakens the deepest emotions hidden in your heart." "Maybe it's fear, maybe it's desire, if you can't stand the test, then you'll be trapped in your emotions forever." ”
"In other words, only you know what you're seeing."
The demon was not sure whether what He Luoyu said was true or false, so she didn't dare to lie at will. After all, no one can say for sure whether He Luoyu's remarks are another kind of temptation.
But if she told the truth, He Luoyu knew that she had a deep desire for pearls in her heart.
The demon had a hard time choosing.
But in the face of He Luoyu's aggressive gaze, the demon could only groan slightly, and said stubbornly: "I saw a shining pearl. ”
"Oh roar, it turned out to be a water pearl." The expression on He Luoyu's face was so strange that the demon couldn't guess what it was thinking.
"Yu Daxian, I'll tell you the truth that I lost my memory not long ago, so I don't know why I saw that pearl at the last moment."
"The Hanshui Pearl was offered to me by a little water demon many years ago, and she also lost her memory back then." He Luoyu said.
"Since the Hanshui Pearl can't awaken memories, why do I still miss it?" The demon pretended to look surprised.
"How do you know about this great immortal, but I am now basically sure that you did not come here because you coveted the treasure of this great immortal."
"Yu Daxian is wise."
"There is no need to say a compliment." He Luoyu spit out a few bubbles, "Although Ben Daxian likes to be praised very much. ”
"It's not a compliment to tell the truth." The demon said with a smile.
He Luoyu puffed out his cheeks, and his tone of voice was much softer: "Since you were driven here by the little miscellaneous birds, if I kill you, wouldn't it be equivalent to doing something for it?" ”
"So, this great immortal won't kill you." He Luoyu spat bubbles and continued, "As the saying goes, capital crimes can be avoided, but living crimes are unforgivable. Therefore, Ben Daisen has decided to punish you for the crime of trespassing in the East China Sea. ”
"I wonder how Yu Daxian is going to punish me?"
"It's rare that you are so good at chatting, so I will punish you for talking with me for ten years." He Luoyu said, "Because this great immortal likes to sleep, this decade is not the other decade, and I have to count it when I am awake." ”
The demon felt bitter in his heart, according to He Luoyu's sleep of ten hours a day, wouldn't he have to stay here for more than sixty years?
But she couldn't think of a good way to get out for a while, so she had to agree first.
"I've been playing with you for more than two hours, and Ben Daxian is a little tired, so I'll go to sleep first." He Luoyu puffed out his mouth and let out a characteristic grunt of yawning in the water, "You can play here for a while." ”
Before the words fell, He Luoyu actually snored again.
"Where is this Holo fish? It's clearly a Ho Luo pig! The demon cursed secretly, "Isn't it just sleeping, as if no one can't." ”
The demon vultures found a relatively flat place and lay down.
In order not to let He Luoyu's snoring disturb her, she also specially closed her hearing.
Just as the demon was about to fall asleep, a chill suddenly rose from under her body, and she opened her eyes abruptly and sat up.
She followed the chill and began to inspect the treasure beneath her, and after opening a few gold bars, she saw a delicate agarwood box, and the chill continued to emanate from the box.
The demon took out the box, looked at He Luoyu not far away, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that it was still sleeping deeply.
The demon hesitated, but curiosity finally prevailed, and she took a deep breath and slowly opened the box.
On the base of the red velvet in the box, a milky pearl lies quietly.
It was really in the test of He Luoyu that she saw the pearl of the water.
This time, it's not going to be a test, is it?
The demon looked at the water pearl in the box, and then looked at He Luoyu who was still asleep, and it was difficult to judge for a while.
Distrust is often more ingrained than trust, and once the seeds of distrust sprout in each other's hearts, the slightest stir will allow it to break through the ground.
Thinking of this, the demon sighed lightly, and with a little reluctance, he closed the box and put it back in its place.
He Luoyu was still asleep, as if telling the demon that her concerns were unnecessary.
The demon can only tell himself again and again that it is more important to find a way to get out than to take out the water pearl.
Leave directly while He Luoyu is asleep? The demon didn't dare to try it easily. After all, He Luoyu could detect her arrival in a deep sleep, and naturally he could also detect her departure.
Waiting for Youyan or Beike to save yourself? It's even more fantastical. Not to mention whether the two of them joining forces are He Luoyu's one-in-one general, she can't think of any of the reasons why the two of them came to save herself.
The demon deduced all kinds of possibilities in her mind, and finally had to reluctantly admit that in the face of the unfathomable strength of He Luoyu, the possibility of her leaving here without permission was almost zero.
Unless, there can be someone with the same strength as He Luoyu to help her contain that fish immortal.
The demon searched his stomach and recalled all the people he could think of, but he didn't find a suitable candidate.
The demon sat a little decadently on top of the pile of gold bricks, and she thought, "If only Pujia and Mu Yu could be around, at least two more people could think of a way together." ”
It's a pity that Pu Jia is trapped in the Ghost Valley, and if it weren't for the Tears of the Phoenix, he probably wouldn't be able to leave there for the rest of his life.
"yes, how could I forget about the little broken bird?" The demon has a flash of inspiration, isn't the phoenix in the East China Sea Wutong Forest the best choice to contain He Luoyu?
