Chapter 165: An Unbearable Past
Shu Zhihan's eyes flashed, looking at the two men in front of her.
After thinking about it for a while, he asked, "Father, can you tell me about my background?"
Looking at her, she seems to be very entangled in this.
Master Shu is also a little embarrassed.
"Zhihan, can you tell your father when did you know about it?"
Shu Zhihan looked at Luo Jinyu for a moment and got an affirmative nod.
"I learned about it by accident after I came to this city.
So, father, I'm really not your daughter, am I?
However, since I am just a merman, and I don't want to have anything to do with you, why did you raise me?"
This sentence finally came out of his mouth.
After Shu Zhihan learned of her special identity, this doubt has been lingering in her heart, which is the most insoluble for her.
After all, everyone knows that they are a shark clan, and that is a double-edged sword.
Master Shu thought for a moment, reached out and gently touched her hair, "Silly boy, you are my daughter, and everything you should do."
Just when Shu Zhihan was moved for a while, Luo Jinyu saw a strange look in Master Shu's eyes, which was a little incomprehensible.
"Master Shu, I don't know Zhihan's biological father and mother, but that battle ......"
Luo Jinyu didn't let him choose to escape, but asked closely.
He thought that maybe if he figured all of this, then he would know all the secrets of the blue pool.
Seeing that he couldn't hide it, Master Shu sighed lightly and slowly told the past.
"At that time, I was young, and since I was a child, I didn't know how to use water.
One day, when I ran out, I fell into the water because I was greedy for fun.
The moment I fell into the water, I thought I was finished, but what I didn't expect was that someone carried me back to shore.
When I looked closely, it was a beautiful woman, and her voice was extremely moving, making people feel like they were listening to a song.
However, when I looked closely, I realized that the woman had a tail and was dangling in the water, and I was frightened."
Listening to Master Shu sharing his past, Shu Zhihan gradually became a little fascinated by it.
Master Shu took a sip of water gently, and then continued to speak.
For the first moment, his whole heart was filled with fear, and as he talked further, he gradually let go of his defense.
At that time, I often heard about the sharks, but only a few people actually saw them.
During the exchange, Shu Yuancun found that she was very interesting and thoughtful, so he often went to the lake to play.
Each time, he sat on the shore, and the mermaid was half of her body in the water.
The two of them have been getting along like friends all the time, and finally one day, they realize that they don't know each other's names.
"I'm getting out of here."
When Shu Yuancun heard her say that, his heart seemed to be hit hard, and he asked a little nervously, "Why? Where are you going? Will you come back?"
In response to his question, the mermaid slowly lowered her head, looked at the water, and shook her head gently.
"I don't think I'll ever come back to this water."
Hearing this, Shu Yuancun's heart was a little lost, and he sighed lightly and said, "Then can I see you again?"
The question came out, but there was no response.
After a moment, he continued, "My name is Shu Yuancun, what about you? At the very least, if you meet each other next time, you can say hello in person."
The mermaid smiled and said lightly, "Purple kite."
She left just two words, and then dived to the bottom of the lake, and soon the water was calm again.
Shu Yuancun looked at the calm mirror-like lake, as if no one had been here just now.
There are still some regrets in his heart, but his heart is still very rational.
It would be a lie to say that there is no trace of affection for such a beautiful woman.
But Shu Yuancun is very clear about his identity.
He was born in a famous family, and the other half of the future is definitely the right person, and it is impossible to choose a merman.
In addition, it is rumored that the merman is full of treasures, and even so, it is bound to bring a lot of trouble.
In this way, their acquaintance ended so briefly.
originally thought that there would be no more intersections, but they didn't expect that the departure that time was because their whereabouts were exposed.
And the person who exposed their whereabouts happened to be Shu Yuancun.
What he didn't know was that his unintentional words had brought them so much trouble.
At that time, although the saint was still young, he listened to the slander of the Taoist priest, saying that the merman was full of treasures that could make him immortal.
But the whereabouts of the mermaids are uncertain, and no one knows their exact location.
At that time, Shu Yuancun's father was the master of the dynasty.
During that time, Shu Yuancun always ran out secretly, and instead of focusing on his studies, he sent someone to follow him quietly.
When the follower went back to tell him, he couldn't believe it until he secretly followed it and saw it with his own eyes.
He was afraid that the merman would bring unnecessary trouble to his family, so he asked his wife to quickly find a suitable family for Shu Yuancun, and then quietly told the Taoist priest where the merman was.
The Taoist priest added oil and vinegar, and for a while, let the saint believe in the location of the merman.
But at that time, it was inconvenient to make a big splash, so I had to quietly investigate.
The five senses of the shark are very sensitive.
When they learned that someone had discovered their presence, they planned to move away.
When Shu Yuancun later learned that it was because of himself that he forced them to leave, he felt very guilty.
He returned to the lake, and found a small hole in the same place where he and the purple kite had been chatting often.
Curious, he reached in and found a letter.
Shu Yuancun opened it gently, looking at the words on it, his heart instantly felt as if he had been pierced by thousands of thorns.
He felt so painful.
It turned out that Purple Kite knew that it was because of him that he would attract those people, but said that he didn't blame him.
Not only that, but she also left a bright pearl.
Shu Yuancun's heart felt very guilty, and he secretly made up his mind in his heart that he would definitely remember this love for a lifetime.
Just like that, he began to prepare for his marriage, although he didn't like it, and the figure of the purple kite often appeared in his mind.
But he continued, knowing that this was his fate, and for a moment he looked forward to how good it would be if he could swim freely in the water like her.
Freedom is simply a luxury for the children of these eunuch families.
Due to the support of his newlywed wife's family, coupled with his father's constant maneuvers in the court, his career has been smooth and has risen quickly.
I always thought that life would go on like that.
A few years have passed, and the name of the purple kite seems to have faded from his impression.
Since in the past, I only heard that there was a merman, but I didn't really find his figure, and the matter was over.
It's just that what I didn't expect was that one day in the early dynasty, someone would bring up the old things again.
In this way, a tragedy is about to happen.
"Your Majesty, Wei Chen heard that the queen of the shark is extremely beautiful, if you can get her tears, grind powder and drink it, you can live forever, or you can drink its blood,
If you eat its flesh, you will have the incorruptible body of Vajra."
That person is none other than the current Prime Minister Jiang Cheng.
Hearing the words he said in the court, Shu Yuancun was extremely nervous.
The face of the purple kite was clearly engraved in his mind again.
prayed wholeheartedly, the queen shark in Prime Minister Jiang Cheng's mouth was someone else.
It's just that as soon as I thought about it, I heard a familiar name ringing in the court.
"Your Majesty, that queen is called Purple Kite, and it is said that someone in our court has seen her."
When the Holy Lord heard this, he couldn't help but be interested, "Quick, tell me, who has seen it, and what does it look like?"
"If you go back to the emperor, the person you have seen is Master Shu."
was suddenly so famous, Shu Yuancun's heart was nervous.
This is the position he just ascended to the position of the Grand Master, and if he loses it because of this, he will also feel unwilling in his heart.
"Really? Then Shu Aiqing will talk about whether the queen shark is really that beautiful."
Shu Yuancun didn't know how to answer, his eyes met his father, and he saw that he was looking at him coldly.
He was startled, and then nodded, "Back to the emperor, indeed, it's just that Weichen hasn't seen her for a long time, and when I saw her at that time, I didn't know that she was the queen of the shark."
After hearing this, the emperor waved his hand directly, as if he didn't want to hear these words.
"In this case, I will send you to bring the queen mermaid and control all the other mermen."
After getting this order, Shu Yuancun was very embarrassed.
From the bottom of his heart, he didn't want to hurt the purple kite, but he didn't have the courage to disobey.
He had no choice but to take the order.
This time, they caught those mermen by surprise.
The more they resisted, the more casualties grew.
When Shu Yuancun saw the purple kite again, the helplessness in his heart was all written on his face.
"I'm sorry."
That's the only thing he said to Purple Kite.
It's just that she didn't expect that she didn't hurt Shu Yuancun, she just shook her head, "Don't blame yourself, even if you don't come, there will be others, some things can't be changed, maybe this is the fate of our clan."
Shu Yuancun listened to her being so reasonable, and felt even more guilty in his heart.
He didn't tell her that he was the one who started it.
The two of them were silent for a long time.
