Chapter 17: The Secret of the Sea (8)
He took the silver cup home, while Crystal was taking care of her elderly parents, and he called Crystal to his side to surprise her. As he moved the silver cup from behind him to his eyes, Crystal Lena was overwhelmed by the light from the cup, and she took it, her eyes filled with sparkling stars, and suddenly a hot tide of warmth floated through her heart and turned the blue of the sky.
She blinked her eyes and asked curiously, "Arrow, what day is it today, why are you giving me a gift?"
"Na, guess what, it's a day for you. Dugu Jian pursed his lips and said mysteriously.
"I really can't remember what day it is, tell me quickly!" said Crystal Lena with a frown, running her hand through the ends of her hair.
"Today is your twenty-fifth birthday, my dear wife!"
"Yes, don't you say I almost forgot?" said Crystal Lena as if she had just woken up from a dream, "but why did you give me a silver cup?"
"The homonym of the silver cup is a lifetime, and I hope we can live happily ever after. ”
"It should be a very beautiful gift, and I have to treasure it. Crystal Lena lowered her head, her cheeks flushed, "When we grow old, I'll take it out again and see the promises we've made together." ”
"Okay, I believe that our love will live forever, even if the sea is dry and the rocks are rotten, two hearts that love each other will not change. Dugu Arrow hugged Jingliana tightly in his arms, and Jingliana leaned on his shoulder and sank into the love story of the cup and water.
One day, the cup said to its owner, "I'm lonely, I need water, give me some water." The master said, "Well, if you have the water you want, won't you be lonely?" and the cup said, "It should be." So the master poured boiling water into the cup. The water was hot, and the cup felt like it was about to melt, and the cup thought, this is the power of love. Then, the water warmed up, and the cup felt very comfortable, and the cup thought, this is what life feels like.
Later, the water became cold, and the cup felt scared, and it didn't know what it was afraid of, and the cup thought, this is what it feels like to lose. Slowly, the water was cold, the cup was desperate, and the cup thought, this is the evil result of fate. The cup said, Master, pour the water out quickly, I don't need it. However, the master was not there, and the cup felt like it was painful to death, and the abominable water, cool, was put in the heart, and it felt so sad. The cup shook hard, and the water finally came out of the heart of the cup, and the cup was so happy, and suddenly, the cup fell to the ground.
The cup was broken, and before it died, it saw that there were traces of water in every part of its heart, and it knew that it loved water so much, but it could no longer put water in its heart. The cup wept, its tears dissolved with the water, and it hoped to love the water again with its last strength, but the overturned water could never return to the empty cup. Love is often cherished only after experiencing pain, and it is often regretted when it is irretrievable. In fact, love is like this, and so are many things in life, which must be lost to feel precious.
A pitch-black bolt of lightning struck the heart of the wooden house, which connected to the earth and trembled violently. A faint light flashed in Crystal Lena's eyes, which pierced her sensitive heart, and as if she had expected something, she frantically pulled out a red cloth from the window and wrapped the silver cup on the table and hid it.
At this time, she heard thunderous footsteps shattering her eardrums one after another, and hurried out, at this time, she saw the black oppressive soldiers rolling forward like a rising tide, and then she smelled an aura that was more terrifying to her than death, she held her breath to block the more and more ferocious turbidity, but the oppressive aura still invaded her heart continuously, she stretched out her hands and tried to stir those heavy undercurrents, but they easily jumped over her fingertips and flowed towards the other side of the darkness, she reluctantly let go of her hand, and let the undercurrent in her hand and the undercurrent of the wasteland merge together to break through the armor of the dawn。
The Lord of Darkness, Midori Zhuxuan, led the soldiers to rush over like a strong wind, and Crystal Lena's eyes were painted with layers of pitch-black smoke from the ghostly light.
"Open the door!" "Inhuman Tian Siyu shook the wooden fence, trying to rampage in.
"Excuse me, who are you looking for?" asked Crystal Lena through the crack in the door, confused.
"We are looking for the hunter Dugu Arrow, the same hunter who guarded the castle for Lan Xingye, the king of light. The Lord of Darkness roared loudly with a roar like a torrent.
He ...... He was not there, he went hunting in the wilderness, and he could not return until noon. A hint of fear welled up on Crystal Lena's face, and she replied with a slurred expression.
At this time, Dugu Jian's mother's voice came from inside the wooden house: "Na'er, are you a guest, let them in!" Jingliana echoed in a panic and opened the wooden fence.
Jingliana invited the Dark Lord and Inhumans into the wooden house, served them hot tea, and when Jingliana sat down, the Dark Lord was silent for a moment, and then said, "I heard that on the day of your and Dugu Arrow's great joy, the King of Light gave you the crystal ball hidden deep in the secret room, but is this the case?"
Crystal Lena suddenly turned earthy and stammered, "Yes, there is...... There is such a thing. ”
"In this case, the crystal ball should be hidden in this wooden house, you can give it to me, as long as you give it to me, I will reward you well!"
"The crystal ball is the king of light, he gave it to us, it is a trust and affirmation of us, I can't give it to others at will. ”
"So, you don't want to hand it over?" said the Dark Lord, with a hideous face.
"She didn't want to hand it over at all, and if she wanted to give it, she would have given it to you a long time ago. Inhuman tugged at the Dark King's clothes and encouraged him.
"You don't want to toast or eat!" the Dark Lord's eyes lit up evilly, threatening, "I'll give you one last chance, I hope you'll think about it." ”
"I said that the crystal ball is the thing of the King of Light, a sacrosanct relic, and no one should touch it. ”
"So, you won't give it," the Dark Lord grinned, pulling out his black wand from his body and placing it around Crystal Lena's neck, and commanding the Inhuman, "Go outside and find more soldiers, and search the wooden house carefully until you find the crystal ball." ”
At this time, Dugu Jian's parents heard the sound of breaking furniture and smashing porcelain, and knew that something must have happened, so they said to Jingliana: "Na'er, don't be afraid, no matter what happens, our family will always be together, even if we die, we will die together." ”
The Dark Lord's soldiers turned the hut up and down, inside and out, but still didn't see a half shadow of the crystal ball. The Lord of Darkness was very angry, and scolded them for being a bunch of fools, and suddenly, Inhumans saw a statue of Guanyin in the shrine, and he had an idea, and turned Guanyin around, only to hear a bang, and the wooden door where the crystal ball was hidden was opened, and they found the crystal ball in a treasure box, and when they got it, they retreated towards the field that was immersed in dead silence.
The power of darkness followed the figure of the dark lord Lu Zhuxuan and retreated towards the field, the dark light in Jingliana's eyes turned into the power of light and warmed her heart, she was once again pulled into the distant imagination of a more distant unknown place by the dream, suddenly, she felt as if she had touched a prison as cold as iron, she looked from the prison to a higher and farther place, it turned out that a fiery red sun had already ignited in her heart......
