Chapter 69: The Mysterious Island (Part II)
"Not an island? So what is this place? ”
Li Lingyun slowly stood up and asked suspiciously.
Brother Chao's "continuous knockout" Dafa not only destroyed Li Lingyun's desire to resist, but also made her temporarily forget about being attacked on her chest and focus on other things.
"Here's my back!"
An old voice sounded, Li Lingyun looked at it curiously, and after seeing the "person" who spoke clearly, he couldn't help blurting out:
"Talking turtle!"
"What's all the fuss about", Xu Mochao saw her rare and strange appearance, and said lightly, "There are many things that can talk!" ”
"Hehe, the young man is right."
The little turtle perched in the pool was obviously very satisfied with Xu Mochao's attitude, and actually coughed twice, "Let me introduce myself, I am an ancient ancient who has lived for a long time, life is the same as heaven and earth, wisdom is the first of all things, and my name is Penglai!"
What you see now is just my primordial spirit! I first appeared when Pangu opened the world, and later experienced Kuafu's chasing the sun, Jingwei reclamation, Houyi shooting the sun, Nuwa creating people, the dispute between water and fire, Nuwa mending the sky, and so on......"
This thing started from the time when the world was opened, and when it was talked about nine thousand years ago, Xu Mochao finally interrupted him, "Shut up, I'm not here to listen to your story." ”
Xu Mochao's words were not polite, but the Penglai giant turtle was not angry, but apologized: "I'm really sorry, I haven't spoken for too long, so I happily forgot everything as soon as I said it......
Speaking of which, I remember the last time I spoke, it seems to be more than 300 years ago, when it was in the South China Sea......"
"Hey ——!"
Xu Mochao really can't stand this goods.
You're too good at, aren't you?
From the beginning of the world to 9,000 years ago, it was hard to interrupt you, right?
You told me three hundred years ago?
Who cares about these things!
"Poof~"
Li Lingyun on the side really couldn't hold back and laughed out loud.
Xu Mochao turned his head to stare at her.
"How, what's wrong......"
She was startled, for fear that Xu Mochao would knock her again, "I'...... I don't mean anything else......"
Even she secretly hated herself for what's wrong, why is she so unconfident when she speaks?
Unexpectedly, Xu Mochao just glanced at her and said lightly, "You look good when you smile, you can smile more in the future." ”
"Y-What are you talking about?"
Li Lingyun never expected Xu Mochao to say this, because no one had ever said this to her.
Because the senior sister Qi Rongxia in the Five Wonders of Xianxia is graceful and generous, quite a family demeanor, and tolerant, so several junior sisters are not very afraid of her.
So she, the second child, simply took on the role of singing blackface, plus her appearance was originally a bit fierce and strict, so the three junior sisters were more afraid of her than Qi Rongxia.
In this case, even she herself couldn't remember how long it had been since she had laughed.
Although it is not as long as the last time Penglai opened her mouth for three hundred years, for her lifespan, it is much longer than Penglai's three hundred years.
However, Xu Mochao only turned to Penglai after saying this, "Since this entire island is your back, then you must also know the whereabouts of the other people who came with us." ”
Seeing that Xu Mochao only said this sentence and began to tease Penglai, Li Lingyun was faintly disappointed, but when he asked about other people, he was also in good spirits and listened attentively.
"Of course! Penglai said proudly, "There are several people who have fallen on my back, but you are the first to find here. ”
"So everyone is alright, right?"
Li Lingyun couldn't help but ask again.
Xu Mochao glanced at her and did not speak.
"It should be fine, but you don't have to be too careless, right?"
Penglai said in a slightly reproachful tone, "Actually, I have been sleeping at the bottom of Yunmeng Lake for hundreds of years, and today I suddenly felt a force appear on the surface of the lake, disturbing my sleep.
So I surfaced to see what was going on...... So if I hadn't floated like this today, you would have gone to the bottom of the lake to feed the fish and turtles! ”
"Thank you so much, Penglai senior! Thank you, you saved our lives! ”
Li Lingyun opened his mouth again to thank him, and his words were sincere.
Xu Mochao glanced at her and did not speak.
"Haha, you're welcome, you're welcome, but since I saved your life, can you do me a small favor?"
"Mean, you say."
Xu Mochao didn't know if he was saved by Penglai today because of his luck or because the script was originally written like this, but it must be a fact that he was rescued by Penglai Giant Turtle, so he happily agreed without even asking anything.
As a result, Penglai said that it was indeed a small matter, that is, there was a thorn on its back near its tail that had been piercing it, so it hoped that Xu Mochao and Li Lingyun could help it pull out this thorn.
Since Xu Mochao had already agreed, Li Lingyun couldn't object anymore, so he had to speak, "Then ask Wang Shaoxia to help the seniors pull out the thorns, and I'll look for ......."
"Haha, don't worry, you brothers and sisters, I'll bring them here! You can go and pluck the thorns for me first, so that my tail is more comfortable, is that okay?" ”
"No problem", Xu Mochao looked at Li Lingyun who was standing in place, "What, don't you go?" ”
"That...... I'll just stay here and wait for them...... I think I got a little hurt just now......"
"It's useless, then you can rest here!"
Li Lingyun: "......"
An inexplicable sense of grievance suddenly appeared in her heart, which she had never experienced before.
When Xu Mochao left, Penglai let out a long sigh.
"Why are the seniors sighing?"
"Little girl, you humans are not like me, your longevity is limited, there are some things that some people can't miss, otherwise if you miss it, you will miss it."
"What are you talking about, senior!"
Li Lingyun was shocked in his heart, but he said, "That person just now was a beast, how could I ...... him?"
"Haha, girl, I didn't say it was him, didn't you admit it yourself?"
"I ......"
"Don't explain, explanation is a cover-up, I have already said it, I have lived with heaven and earth, and I have seen too many people and things...... Besides, the young man just now is not what you said, you should know this in your heart. ”
"He's one of the few people I've ever met!" Penglai sighed, "If I'm not mistaken, this son will definitely do something in the future!" ”
Seeing Li Lingyun's unbelievable look, Penglai smiled again, "Haha, girl, anyway, if you want to stay here and wait for someone, why don't you chat with me?" ”
