Chapter 18: The Deceased
As night falls, let's turn our eyes back to Jinao Island.
Hou Yi looked at Yunyin Mountain with respect, this number one master of Jinao Island turned out to be the same as Cheng Shu, and he surrendered to the realm, and the reason was the same - to stay on the earth to deal with the threat of black holes.
Hundreds of people on Jinao Island knelt in front of Yunyin Mountain, and no one thought that Yunyin Mountain stayed because of nostalgia for the position of the island owner, just as no one thought that the position of the island owner was more important than the ascension of the catastrophe.
Although Jinao Island is a loose organization, in the thousands of years that Yunyin Mountain has served as the owner of the island, almost everyone has been convinced of him, and it is not easy to be a person to do this. And Yunyin Mountain did pour all his heart and soul into Jinao Island, so he was unwilling to rush into the catastrophe. Everyone can imagine that if the next island owner is not arranged, if Yunyin Mountain soars, the consequences will most likely be internal problems, which Yunyin Mountain definitely does not want to see.
Yun Yin Mountain made a decision to cooperate with the U.S. government before the self-surrender realm. From Hou Yi's mouth, everyone on the island already knows that on the earth today, the United States is still leading in many aspects in terms of science and technology, especially in aviation technology, and the United States, which has always been very concerned about outer space, is undoubtedly ahead of the world for decades in this regard.
In fact, only half of the cultivators on the island are from China. Of this half, one-third are alien cultivators, that is, monsters, and these people still have a deep attachment to their homeland. But the other half of the people are different, most of these people are from the kraken, and they have no sense of belonging to any country on land, they only regard Jinao Island as their home, and only obey the orders of the island owner Yunyin Mountain. There are also a small number of standard foreigners, and among the people Hou Yi sees alone, there are bearded Arabs, blonde Westerners, and even blacks with totemic tattoos.
And what surprised Hou Yi the most was that he actually saw a mixed-race child. The half-breed has a very simple bloodline, his mother is a vampire and his father is a werewolf. This is what Yun Yinshan told Hou Yi, and his tone was full of sighs and sympathy for the life experience of this mixed-race child named Gais.
Hou Yi was full of curiosity about this half-breed, although he rarely went to Europe, he also knew some things about the dark world of Europe from various sources. Vampires and werewolves, though they belong to the same dark alliance against the Holy See, are deeply hated by each other. From ancient times to the present day, countless wars have broken out between the two races, large and small, and the enmity between the two sides is almost irreconcilable. Most people of both races don't know what the reason for the initial feud was, but the countless killings and revenge have made that reason irrelevant, and almost everyone alive has had their ancestors die at the hands of the other.
In the history that Hou Yi understands, since the birth of the two races, there has been no example of intermarriage, and the talk of mixed-race children is even more unheard of. But the appearance of the werewolf in front of him, who was both strong and fierce and elegant and handsome of a vampire, subverted Hou Yi's cognition.
"Cloud Island Lord, can you introduce the origin of Gais?" Hou Yi asked Yun Yinshan in a low voice, he was very interested in Gais's bloodline, he had to go to Europe anyway to deal with the Holy See and the Dark Alliance, Gaith might be the best helper.
Yun Yinshan glanced at Hou Yi strangely and said, "I didn't expect you to be so interested in him." Gaith is an outlier on Jinao Island, he is from the West, so he can't talk to the Eastern cultivators, his blood is not pure, and the monsters also look down on him. In short, he doesn't have many friends on the island, but he never takes the initiative to talk to others, and everyone is used to it. ”
"Why did he come to Jinao Island?"
"Escape!" Yun Yinshan said: "Just the day before Jinao Island was sealed by the Silent Great Array, Geth fled to the island covered in blood, hoping that we would take him in. According to him, it was because his half-breed identity was discovered, and neither the vampire nor the werewolf race could tolerate him. More than 1,200 people from the two families of Gas's father and mother were slaughtered first, and then he watched his parents be dismembered, when he was still very young, only 300 years old. In fact, speaking of his life experience, he has been trying to go back to take revenge for the past four thousand years, but he was blocked by the silent array. ”
Hou Yi frowned, this half-breed is indeed worthy of sympathy: "Then what is his skill, I'm afraid that he has made a lot of progress in four thousand years on the island, right?"
Yun Yinshan sighed: "Gaith has no friends on the island, he is a man and silent, so no one exchanges his cultivation experience with him at all, but I pity his life experience, and taught him some simple exercises when he first came to the island, and I haven't paid attention to him for so many years, but I don't know what level he has cultivated." However, this man has excellent qualifications and a strong body, and no one on the island can compare with him. In fact, if it weren't for his too cold personality and too strong a sense of revenge, I would have taken him as an apprentice a long time ago. ”
"I see!" Hou Yi took a deep look at Gess who was bowing his head and was silent in the corner, and decided to find an opportunity to contact him.
While he was thinking, a crisp but slightly sad voice came: "Cloud Island Master, Brother Hou, are you done talking?" At the sound booth, a beautiful woman in yellow moved her lotus feet lightly and came with an elegant smile on her face.
Hou Yi smiled, if he had friends on Jinao Island, it was undoubtedly this woman, and immediately nodded and smiled: "Sister Qionglian, I haven't seen you for a long time!" Yun Yinshan saw that the two of them were talking, and he didn't bother, turned around and walked out of the main hall, to take care of the preparations for the catastrophe.
"Yes, Brother Hou, it's been four thousand years, are you okay? Sister Yue'e is okay too?" Qiong Lian's beautiful big eyes flashed with water, and she could see that she was very excited. She is also a master who is qualified to sit in the hall, everyone has been talking about important things just now, and it is inconvenient for her to stand up and catch up with Hou Yi, but now that everything is in order, she came to greet her.
Hou Yi looked at the little sister in front of him gently, who had been very loved before, thousands of years, her appearance and personality didn't seem to have changed at all, she was still so beautiful and gentle. However, unlike thousands of years ago, she is now single, and her whole body exudes sadness and sorrow that she did not have before, which makes people feel pity.
"I'm fine, Yue'e is also very good, she has always missed you very much, and often mentions you. ”
"That's good, I've missed you for thousands of years. Qiong Lian smiled happily, but Hou Yi could still see the indelible sorrow in her eyes, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
"Sister Qionglian, after so many years, you still can't forget your brother-in-law?" asked Hou Yi tentatively.
Qiong Lian lowered her head: "Hmm!"
Hou Yi sighed: "In fact, when you were with him four thousand years ago, you should have known that the righteous brother was just a mortal, and his life was only a short hundred years, and separation was doomed." After so many years, I thought you had already seen it, but I didn't expect you to still remember it, so why bother?"
Douda's tears finally rolled down from Qiong Lian's beautiful eyes: "Brother Hou, I know, but I still can't forget him......"
"Alas, if it weren't for the fact that the righteous brother was born with no pulse and couldn't cultivate the truth, you could have been together all the time. Hou Yi sighed, "It's been four thousand years, in fact, sister, you should let go of everything, maybe you will find someone as good as your brother." ”
"Brother Hou, you don't have to comfort me, how can I let go?" Qiong Lian raised her teary eyes and said sadly.
Hou Yi's heart moved, and a sentence that had been prepared almost rushed out of his mouth, but when he saw Qiong Lian's current appearance, he knew that it was not time to speak, so he just said: "Brother Yi is really a blessing, having a loving wife like you." Sister Qionglian, let's do it, anyway, after a few seniors cross the tribulation, Jinao Island will reappear, and then you will have to go out of the island anyway, why don't I talk to the Lord of Yun Island, and let me be your tour guide?"
Qiong Lian's expression changed: "Tour guide?"
Hou Yi smiled: "Yes, the world now is completely different from four thousand years ago, and it is much more exciting than four thousand years ago. ”
Qiong Lian knew that Brother Hou cared about herself, and she was also very moved in her heart, and said in a low voice: "Then Qiong Lian will listen to Brother Hou's words." She didn't know that Hou Yi still had a word in her heart that she hadn't said.
"Go out for a walk, and the girl will definitely meet someone she likes. ”
