Looking at the royal family's secretive appearance, the silver poppy only felt happy.

He also did not forget about the conditions of men.

The secret realm of the country of Li'er is opened once every ten years, and to open the secret realm, you must go to the star platform by the direct bloodline of the royal family and open the exit in person, if the royal family is coerced and forcibly opens the secret realm, the entrance to the secret realm will collapse by itself. There are few people in the Liuli Sect, only Rong Yu and Senior Brother, and it is not easy to be discovered, so he hid in Rong Yu's body, planning to mix in it when the time comes.

However, I didn't expect Gu Baiying to come. Unexpectedly, the people of the Taiyan faction found the truth of the year by mistake.

He didn't originally come for revenge, at least not entirely, but now, the moment the truth was discovered, Yin Poppy felt that it didn't matter if he couldn't enter the secret realm, anyway, he had achieved his goal.

"What does the other party want you to find in the secret realm?" Gu Baiying asked.

"I'm not going to tell you."

"Looks like you don't want the demon pill anymore."

"It's a painting, a portrait of a woman! He said I would know when I saw it. Silver Poppy said angrily. Not everyone can endure the pain of the demon pill being dissected.

"I still don't understand," Hairpin looked at him seriously, "whether you're here for revenge or to enter the secret realm, I've never had any hostility toward you. But why did you sneak into my room in the middle of the night? ”

Yin Poppy was stunned, his gaze fell on the hairpin, and it became a little strange for a moment: "That's because you ......"

As he spoke, the pitch-black scales on his chest suddenly flickered.

"Danger!" Gu Baiying's face changed, and he pulled the hairpin behind him.

From the chest of the silver poppy, a large block of black mist suddenly rose, not so much black fog, but a beam of light condensed by the black mist, and these black beams of light penetrated the silver poppy's chest in an instant. The merman's expression became painful, as if he had endured great devastation. The beams of light grew like a misty swamp, enveloping the silver poppies.

"Silver poppy!" Silver Chestnut shouted in panic.

But he was just a primordial spirit, and he couldn't even touch his brother's body. I could only watch as the silver poppy was swallowed by the black mist, leaving only a broken robe on the ground.

"He's ...... He's dead? Tian Fangfang asked blankly.

"There's something wrong with that scale." Gu Baiying's face was surprisingly ugly, "Maybe the other party is taking his weakness in his hands by giving him demonic power, and once something happens, he will take the merman's life." ”

It's a sure-fire deal.

"Silver Chestnut ......" hairpin looked at the little merman, he had wandered lonely in the corridor of the imperial tomb for decades, thinking that he could touch freedom, even if it was only for a short moment, but as soon as he met his loved ones, he was about to be separated.

She wanted to fulfill Yinli, but this long story was doomed to a tragic ending from the beginning.

The monks looked at him from afar, and the figure of this little mermaid was so pitiful between heaven and earth.

Until the woman's voice sounded: "Silver chestnut ......"

Silver Chestnut moved and slowly turned around.

The woman in red stared at him in amazement, beside her a bow and arrow that fell to the ground. Her gaze penetrated the years of time, like the first encounter on the sea, bewildering, incomprehensible, and warm that he could never forget.

Princess Lizhu slowly approached and walked in front of Silver Chestnut.

Forty years have passed since that year.

Forty years, for the merman, is just a snap of a finger, but it is enough to turn a human girl into an old woman.

She still likes to wear red as she did then, like killing pirates on a cargo ship, cutting her robe short and her wide sleeves reaching her elbows. Her hair was still in a high bun, but the green silk had turned white. His eyes were still bright, but wrinkles were already crawling at the corners of his eyes.

Life has been a long time coming.

"Silver chestnut...... Is that your name? Princess Lizhu asked softly.

He was stunned for a moment, then nodded shyly.

Tears welled up in her eyes: "I'm sorry. ”

The merman smiled: "It's okay. ”

Those truths, those truths hidden in the depths of the imperial mausoleum and disappeared with the demon slaying array, like those bright ever-bright lights in the underground corridors, burning alone and without anyone care. Maybe one day it will see the light of day again, or maybe it will never be known.

The white jade palace of the imperial tomb seemed to become very faint for a moment. The wind was blowing from all directions, and the land was empty. The merman's silver tail gradually revealed, drawing a strong brilliance in the empty night sky.

The young man looked at the gray-haired woman in front of him, and suddenly leaned over slightly, and kissed her shyly and firmly on the forehead.

Time and space seem to stand still.

He remembered a long, long time ago, when the moon on the western sea shone on the great ship, and he saw the red-clothed woman standing in the bow of the boat, carefully wiping the horn bow in her hand, and he was eager to try behind the reef, and followed her all the way to a strange land.

That night, for the first time, the princess looked at the silent little guard and said to him, "Thank you. He gave her the blue conch that had been wiped countless times, hoping to change her face.

It actually hurts to walk, but he rejoices in his heart.

Shemales have never been on different paths, and there is no good ending together. But he has never had the luxury of being with each other, this humble young man likes someone, but he can't say it, he can only ...... It can only be hidden in the heart.

"I want to be human." ”

The witch of the snake witch clan looked at him, "I want your demon pill in exchange." ”

He said, "Okay." ”

"Pull out the scales from your body one by one."

He said, "Okay." ”

"It's not easy for a demon to be a man, although you have legs, you are walking on the tip of a sharp blade every day."

He said, "Okay." ”

The witch's eyes were full of compassion that understood everything, as if she had already seen through the ending, and she said, "The destiny of heaven has long been predestined and cannot be changed. You and her, the two of you, the fate of the cause and the end of the moment, why force? ”

For a moment?

Ginri felt his body become lighter, like the wind blowing in the summer at the end of the Western Sea, and he looked at the woman in front of him.

With herself in her eyes, she called out her name.

That's enough.

Hairpin once jokingly said: The memory of fish is very short, only for a moment.

But she didn't know that sometimes, that moment, was eternal.

In the sky, the night sky turned into an inky blue sea, from the merman's fishtail, began to gradually blur into bright white stars, those twinkling stars floated on the long field, in the darkness, slowly scattered in all directions.

From his tail, to his body, to his arms, until the whole person completely turned into a point of light and disappeared, only those amazing stars, splendidly and grandly burned, and then returned to tranquility.

The night sky darkens again.

There are no more shark silver chestnuts in the world.
