Chapter 65: Minotaur (1)
The two of them were on this black water, riding the breeze, stepping on the waves, side by side, walking slowly, and the silverfish leading the way in front of them quietly glowed with a little firefly, silently accompanied.
If it weren't for the need to beware of the terrifying evil force from time to time, in such a leisure time, it would be really relaxed and pleasant, Feng Shuzhu and Shui Lingyue are like a pair of mandarin ducks playing in the water with each other, not impatient or impatient, and tranquil with a leisure.
Feng Shuzhu looked sideways slightly, and within a few steps of her side, Shui Lingyue and the sword walked together, her white clothes fluttering in the wind, her hair dancing in the wind, and her cold face was so cold and glamorous.
Feng Shuzhu looked a little stupid, a little suspicious, and unconsciously, he actually froze.
Shui Lingyue seemed to have sensed something, and suddenly turned her head, her bright cold eyes and the undodging Feng Shuzhu looked at each other, her peerless face was like a lily quietly blooming in this darkness, and in that piece of cold and frosty beauty, there was a trace of tenderness that was difficult to capture.
Feng Shuzhu saw those cold eyes, and suddenly realized that he was out of shape, as if he had been caught as a thief, and felt embarrassed, under the cold eyes, he actually had a feeling that he had nowhere to escape, and hurriedly turned his head and looked away.
Shui Lingyue's face was indifferent, she didn't care, and after a few more glances at Feng Shuzhu, she slowly turned her head, closed her eyes slightly, and moved her nose slightly, as if she was catching the oncoming wind breath, and seemed to be enjoying the beauty of this moment.
In order to alleviate the embarrassment, Feng Shuzhu looked to the other side, coughed lightly, straightened his expression, and stared at the front, but he didn't dare to look at Shui Lingyue anymore, and suddenly said: "Water girl, has your master reminded you, where is the specific place of the melting grass." ”
Hearing this, Shui Lingyue slowly opened her eyes, stared ahead without distraction, and said slowly: "My master only said that it is in the Evil Transformation Pool, and one plant will grow every hundred years. ”
Feng Shuzhu said "oh", he is no stranger to this "Evil Pool", as early as when he was in Luotian Town, he heard Yuan Wuxi mention it, but the specific location was unknown, so he pondered for a while, and said: "That water girl, can you know the exact location of the Evil Pool." ”
This time, Shui Lingyue blinked, her eyebrows lowered slightly, and she didn't speak again, just shook her head lightly.
Feng Shuzhu thought about it, and had to say: "Water girl, you don't have to worry, the so-called rare treasures, those who are destined to use them, I see that you have your own natural appearance, and you will definitely find the evil grass." ”
For these comforting words said by Feng Shuzhu, Shui Lingyue listened to them in her ears, not liking, but not bored, but her face was still cold and expressionless, in fact, she herself was quite strange, no matter how she decided to avoid the scholar next to her, but by chance, they bumped together, and for some seemingly valid reasons, they had to go together, and there was always an unrelenting entanglement in their hearts, could it be that this was also one of their destiny?
How could Feng Shuzhu beside him know that the cold and beautiful woman was in such a fluctuating mood, but when she saw Shui Lingyue's face was cold and faint
With a hint of displeasure, he mistakenly thought that he had said the wrong thing again, and he didn't know what to do for a while, so he was silent with Shui Lingyue.
After a long time, Shui Lingyue's eyes suddenly lit up, and she said strangely: "Where are these silverfish going to take us?"
Hearing this, Feng Shuzhu realized that he only cared about the cold and beautiful woman beside him along the way, but he forgot the direction, and let those silverfish fly like reins, and he had already been taken to an unknown area.
Under the faint light, the water surface is a little clearer, and several strange stones of different shapes poke out of the water, sitting or lying, large or small, forming a strange stone formation.
When the two of them were hesitating, their eyes actually lit up, and a light rose from the water in the distance, the size was like a goose egg, rising to a height of several zhang, and suddenly stood still, and after a while, the light gathered for a while, suddenly changed from small to large, and gradually dispersed, and in an instant, the soft clear light was like moonlight, swaying down, bringing a layer of blurred color to the whole space.
Raise your eyes and look up, here is like a big lake with vast water potential, the lake is wide and vast, sparkling, and the opposite side sees the distant mountains, a good group of lake light and moonlight, if you don't look up, you still see the black cave roof, you will really mistake it for the outside world.
Feng Shuzhu and Shui Lingyue glanced at each other, and they all flew to a small island in the middle of the lake with the clear light of the moonlight.
This is an isolated island of several acres in size, composed of gray hard rocks, because it is born in the middle of the lake, it is surrounded by water on all sides, there is not much vegetation on the island, it is full of rocks of different shapes, uneven sizes, the big ones are several zhang high, and the small ones are only the size of a fist.
There are no buildings on the island, and there is not a single path to be found, it is like an isolated and uninhabited place.
Feng Shuzhu and Shui Lingyue two, chose an abrupt rock next to the foot, the rock is a complete piece, a place below hanging, actually upside down some unknown grass, inch long, although the grass color is not as verdant as the outside world, but the tender yellow, like a new sprout, those small grass coiled with a thumb-thick purple vine, butterfly-shaped corolla, or green or deep purple, strings of flower spikes hanging between the green leaf vines, slender pods swaying in the wind, very beautiful, have a charm.
The wind and bamboo look out, the island is the moonlight, the lake, the distant mountains, the breeze is coming, blowing slowly, people are comfortable, but also marvel at the magic of nature.
And Shui Lingyue beside her, quietly, stopped a pair of bright cold eyes on the wisteria under the hanging stone, and looked at it, the strings of dark purple flower spikes, like waterfalls, actually flowed on the rocks, as if they also flowed into her heart.
Feng Shuzhu retracted her gaze and glanced at Shui Lingyue beside her, only to see her cold and beautiful face, blended into the soft light, and in the blur, it was even more beautiful.
The breeze, the lake, the moonlight, and the beauty of the people, this moment has achieved the best time, which makes people feel intoxicated and forget to return.
Many times, two people who are together, even if they have been silent, have been like that, quietly, bathed in the soft light of the moonlight, silently looking at the mountains and rivers, silently listening to the wind in their ears, they are already full of wishes.
Just like the rocks and wisteria beside them, they grow together, for hundreds of years and thousands of years, quietly waiting by each other's side, even if they don't do anything, don't say anything, but, silently accompany each other, it is better than any confession of long-term affection.
The two were speechless to each other, silent in this short and rare time, only feeling the existence of each other around them, letting the wind in their ears convey their delicate thoughts, at this time, silence is far better than a thousand words.
After a long time, there was a "bang", and a small stone under the wisteria, for no reason, rolled down into the lake, breaking this short period of silence.
Feng Shuzhu saw that Shui Lingyue was still staring at the brilliant wisteria flowers, so he accompanied her to look at the wisteria, and on Shui Lingyue's side, she lightly opened her lips and told a legend about wisteria:
A long, long time ago, there was a beautiful girl who liked to wear purple clothes, she prayed devoutly every night, hoping that she would meet someone who cherished herself, and finally one day, I don't know which side of the god was touched, just in her sleep, a voice said to her: "When spring comes, under the big locust tree behind the village, you will meet a young scholar, and that is the love you have been waiting for for a long time." The girl silently remembered it, and waited with her eyes and minds.
Wait until the day of the spring flowers, a morning mist is soft, the infatuated girl came to the big locust tree alone with joy, nervously and excitedly waiting for her beautiful love, but the sky is not beautiful, at noon, the sky is full of dark clouds, and it will rain in a blink of an eye, but the young scholar still did not appear, the girl was nervous and disappointed, a small fall down the cliff next to the big locust tree, and later, on the edge of the cliff where she lost her footing, a wisteria grew on the edge of the big locust tree, the wisteria wrapped around the big locust tree to grow, bloomed many beautiful flowers, bright as clouds, extremely beautiful, later generations called the flowers that bloomed on the vine wisteria flowers, and more people said"Wisteria grows around the tree, and the tree falls and the wisteria dies", which is used to describe the growth of wisteria and the tree.
After listening to such a poignant story, Shui Lingyue was silent for a moment, her bright cold eyes blinked twice, and she said lightly: "The wisteria here doesn't grow around the trees, and I don't like purple clothes." ”
When Feng Shuzhu heard this, he pursed his lips and smiled, and said, "Water girl, I just told a legend." ”
Hearing this, Shui Lingyue didn't give any explanation, still looking at the wisteria, and later, she smiled faintly and lowered her head slightly.
Such a cold and beautiful woman, showing a shallow smile in front of people, just like the frying water made ice, around, the soft clear light is wrapped around that shallow smile, accompanied by bursts of floral fragrance in the breeze, which is intoxicating.
The two people, for some reason, suddenly sank in unison
Silence.
Under the hanging stone, the splendid wisteria flowers swayed gently in the wind, as if moved by the poignant story, and more like being overwhelmed by the shallow smile of the beautiful woman in front of her.
However, good times are always rare and short-lived.
Suddenly, there was a "snap", as if something jumped out of the water and landed next to Shui Lingyue, and at the same time, the water droplets scattered on the person's skin, cold and piercing.
