Chapter 83: Chess pieces
"Master's last ...... Or give me the Cuilong Stone...... Haven't you failed your wife?" said the green snake.
"For you, disappointing Madame?" Hua Hai sneered, "You really exalt yourself too much. My lord promises a thousand dollars, and I will not break my promise to you. But my lord and wife have a deep relationship, and the adult can't take Cuilongshi back to save his wife, he has his own considerations. Sure enough, the lord returned empty-handed, and when he returned to the Red Fortress, he told his wife the truth, and at the end, the lord said to his wife, "Without this emerald stone, I will find another way." I've already thought about it, in the end, I really can't, I'll accompany you, I won't let you go on the road alone, anyway, I've lived for thousands of years, it's long enough, if I don't have you, it's really boring!'"
My heart sank, it turned out to be ...... It turns out that the adult has a deep affection for his wife. During the 16 years I lay there, I always felt that the adult was cold and majestic, and that he was indifferent and tired of everything, and it turned out that his deep affection was hidden in the life and death with his wife.
As soon as my heart was interrupted, I didn't hear what Hua Hai said, but I could hear her continue: "...... Of course he didn't die, but if he did, how could he have said this to me three years ago...... The day after the Lord returned, an envoy from the Holy Star Fort came to visit, bringing a secret letter from the Holy King. According to Madame, there was a small bag in the secret letter, and there was one in it—medicine. The lord read the short note in the secret letter, was speechless for a long time, and finally burned the short note, took the pill and fed it to Madame himself—Madame picked up a life. ”
I heard the crowd sigh in secret.
"So, in the end, it was the Holy King who saved Madame?" Jicheng suddenly asked, "Then why didn't he come to the rescue directly?"
"Is he waiting for the adults to beg him......?" It's useless to beg, and the Holy King himself probably can't do it. ”
"Brother, you're the smartest. Hua Hai chuckled, and then said with a straight face: "My lord told my wife that in the letter written by the Holy King, I said that although the Holy King himself had no cure for his wife, he still hoped that the Lord would go to see him and beg him...... The man begged for a life-saving pill, and put down his body and ordered someone to send it, hoping to save his wife's life. ”
"Who?" I asked hurriedly.
"Actually, it's not human...... Hua Hai said while glancing at his brother: "Madame said that the person's name was very quiet, right...... It's the 'Demon of All Beings'. ”
Demon ...... Someone told me that name...... It was on the white island of the railing, and she told me and her brother that the Son of Man had dedicated his soul and the Holy Star to the Devil's great disciple, the Soul Demon, and became the King of the Blood Clan who ruled the heavens and the earth, while the Soul Demon imprisoned the souls of the leaders of the five clans and sealed them in the Holy Star with dark magic...... This terrible and dark demon, actually, he actually saved his wife's life!
The relationship between the Lord and the Holy King, I heard the Lord himself say a little, but after listening to what Huahai just said, the relationship between the two of them is a bit complicated...... Alas, I slept for 16 years, and once I woke up, I was faced with this series of strange and strange things, no food, no drink, no rest, and the relationship between the characters was intricate, which really made people want to break their heads and couldn't tell ...... difference. I snorted to myself and shook my head, it was useless to think too much, anyway, I would follow them to retrieve the five things, and return my wife a lively sister!
"Green Snake, you just said that my family has something to do with you, what is the matter?" the elder brother asked politely and in a deep voice.
"Oh, yes, when I saw that the master recognized me, and he not only saved my life, but also such a powerful person, I was very happy in my heart......" The green snake replied, suddenly turned his head to the sea of paintings, and said softly: "Fortunately, my mother saved my life, I thought that if the master gave me the emerald stone that saved my mother, and caused my mother to die, then I wouldn't ......."
"Oops, it's none of your business, that's an adult's choice...... Alright, hurry up and tell us what your lord has entrusted you!" said Drawhai.
"Yes. When I saw that Master would not turn his face to me, I slowly swam towards Master and stopped behind him, only to hear Master say word by word: 'In 900 years, a person named Meiyi will pass by here, please do your best to help ......him.'"
The green snake tried to imitate his master's tone, and I was shocked, that, that was exactly the voice and tone of an adult, it didn't lie! But 900 years ago, adults knew that today, a person named "Meiyi" would pass through here! And I am the person called "Meiyi"! And I am only 16 years old! I have a chill on my back—what else does an adult not know?
"Ahh I looked back at him in a daze, and my heart was numb—who the hell am I, and how could I have thought that I would be here at this moment in 900 years? Why do I want this green snake to help me "in all its might"? Am I a chess piece? A chess piece that I knew 900 years ago would fall into today's game?
A hand gently shook my hand and held my hand in his palm, but the palm was colder than mine. It's my brother's hand.
I gently broke away from my brother's hand, walked up to the green snake, looked straight at it, and suddenly there was a gallop of horses in my chest, and I couldn't say a word to ask it.
"For 900 years, I have been waiting here in accordance with Master's will. Finally I waited for you, Meiyi. The green snake faced me and tilted its head slightly, trying to see me clearly with its brownish-red eyes. Suddenly, a string of tears rolled out of the eye, and the tears slid down its green snakeskin.
I wasn't moved, I just stared at it, speechless, and my whole head was wooden.
The green snake shook his head, no longer shed tears, opened his face behind me, paused again, and hesitated: "Before Master left, there was one more sentence......
"Say anything else!" I asked, exclaiming.
"Master said," the green snake straightened up and said loudly, "Master said, 'I am still hesitant about what to do with the humans who came with Meiyi...... Forget it, you protect the good will all the way, if that human has any intention of harming the good will, he doesn't have to exist in this world!'"
This time, the whole world fell silent.
My eyes are blank, and there is no doubt, all this is just a game, and I thought about playing this move 900 years ago. I've been holding this chess piece between their fingers for 900 years!
"What nonsense!" suddenly there was a cry in my ears, and a figure jumped up from behind me, holding a stick in her hand (when did she pick up a stick!), and waved it at the green snake!
Suddenly, there was a flower in front of me, and the green snake jumped up from the palm of Jicheng's hand, and I looked at it again, the green snake had disappeared, but there was an extra cyan jasper hairpin in my hand!
Kazama slashed into the air. The crowd shouted softly. The long hairpin gradually stood up in my hand, pointed down, touching my palm, gently pulling in my palm, I was about to subconsciously grasp the palm, the long hairpin suddenly rose from the ground, straight towards the wind pierced, seeing that it was about to pierce the face of the stroke, everyone exclaimed, my brother turned sideways, flew out obliquely, stretched out his arm to grab the end of the hairpin.
One of the long hairpins accelerated in the translation, evading his brother's capture, the speed was too fast, Kazama didn't know how to dodge for a while, and he could only be stunned there.
"Meiyi!" Someone shouted beside me, and I squinted at it and saw that I had forgotten to speak! I suddenly reacted and shouted at the long hairpin: "The green snake obeys its orders! Stop quickly!"
The long hairpin slowed down instantly, and the direction was deflected, and it could be brushed by the cheeks of the wind room. I only heard the sound of "oops" in Kazama, and a thin mark on his cheek was drawn by the long hairpin. The hairpin turned around and flew towards me, and in an instant, it was in front of me. I was sure in my heart, I was no longer worried, I didn't dodge, I just faced it. I didn't expect it to be close in front of me, but suddenly it turned around and flew diagonally behind me!
As soon as I turned around, I saw that the long hairpin "suddenly-" slanted on the chest of the forgotten words, trembling slightly, and the sunlight passed through the hairpin, overflowing with wisps of light, which was simply bright and incomprehensible. (This green snake is simply a sperm!)
I blurted out, "Don't hurt him, he's a friend!"
Forget to say that his face is not afraid, his expression is kind and moist, he is dressed in a white robe, and he is handsome and upright. I only heard him say to the long hairpin on his chest: "How are you doing?"
The long hairpin faintly sounded: "Friends are the best." If you hurt the good will, you will be ......"
Suddenly, a shrill voice interrupted the long hairpin: "Kyauk's death! What are you still making a fuss about! Do you want to go to the ancient country of elves?! Do you want to find the tears of the night?!"
I pulled my legs and ran in the direction of the sound, and as I ran, I turned back and shouted to the green snake that had transformed into a jasper hairpin: "Forgetting to say is my best friend, it will never hurt my heart, please leave him quickly!"
The long hairpin stood up, pulled out from the chest of the forgetful (fortunately, it was already very shallow), and flew towards me, as soon as I looked up, it was gently and skillfully inserted into my braid, and there was a faint voice: "Meiyi, I will follow you for the rest of my life." ”
"Whew...... Whatever you want...... Just don't hurt my friends. I muttered that I really didn't have time to bother with it for a while.
"How's Xiao Jiao!" I shouted, crouched down, and saw at a glance that in the grass, three elves were leaning closely, Xiao Jiao was in the middle, and Xiao Jiao and Xiao Phantom were guarding on both sides. Xiao Jiao stared at his gray-white eyes, hollow, his life had disappeared, his face was gray, his thin wings tightly wrapped around his small body, he looked small, hard, and pitifully thin. Xiao Huan had a cold face, half-hugged Xiao Jiao, and his expression was blank. Xiao Tween looked up at me, couldn't bear it anymore, and cried: "Meiyi...... Kindness...... Xiao Jiao ...... He's dead...... He finally couldn't hold it anymore...... I heard that...... Hearing the sound of his heart breaking...... as he spoke, tears rolled down his gray eyes.
My tears came out in a "whoosh" and I reached out to bring the three of them into the palm of my hand. Phantom gently pushed my fingers away and slowly moved to the side, never saying a word. I gently held Xiao Jiao and Xiao Jiao in the palm of my hand, and I finally couldn't take them back to the ancient elf country, and Xiao Jiao couldn't go back until he died. I was so sad that I couldn't speak.
"Let us down, Xiao Fantasy and I still have something to do. Tweed sobbed softly. I quickly put Tweed and Tweed and Little Khao back into the grass. Xiao Tween beckoned to Xiao Huan gently, only to see them put the dead Xiao Jiao sideways in the grass, gently remove Xiao Jiao's wings, and walk lightly towards the side of the water.
"You-" I didn't know what they were going to do, so I asked softly, and then looked back at Xiao Jiao, who was lying on the ground on her side and had no wings, "What are you doing...... To put Xiao Jiao ...... Do you want to bury it?"
"No, the elf loses its wings, and his body slowly disappears, merging with everything he loves in nature...... Xiao Jiao, he doesn't have to worry about being scared anymore. The little one turned around and whispered.
I nodded, but I couldn't hold back, and took a leaf and a tiny lilac flower from the grass, and covered it with the leaf, and placed the flower beside him.
Xiao Ni and Xiao Huan held Xiao Jiao's wings, walked to the edge of the water, and raised their voices to call, "Fairy Xiao Nai, can you please come closer?"
Xiao Nai, who was lying in the reeds, was hidden in the water, half of his face was hidden behind the reeds, refusing to show up.
"Miss Xiao Nai, this is the wings of the bright elf of my firefly clan......" There was a slight tremor in Xiao Twe's voice.
"Don't say anything...... I...... I'm afraid I won't be able to accept ......" Xiao Nai's voice trembled.
"This is Kyauk's last wish, and he is willing to dedicate one of his wings to you when he dies. When a light spirit offers his wings, the recipient has to fulfill a last wish for him...... Of course, you can also not accept it. Xiao Phantom said coldly. But I noticed that his little body was shaking slightly.
Xiao Nai finally slipped out from behind the reeds, her long, ocean-blue curls scattered in the water, and the water rippled and reflected on her pale face, cloudy and uncertain.
"Aoi is dead...... My aunt's life and death are also uncertain...... Two generations of masters in my water have come to an end! Only then did we have the difficult situation where the water grass demons and witchcraft controlled us, used us to seduce the young people in the world, and were hunted and hunted by humans! All of this was given by the dark elves of the firefly clan! It was also the evil result of the blood clan's encroachment on the world, the reversal of black and white, and the abrupt multiplication of all evils! We are just a small water sand life, living here, just trying to be stable in this world, but we can't ...... it." Xiao Nai said as she tilted her face back, scanning us one by one with her emerald eyes, full of anger and innocence.
When I met her eyes, my heart felt like something had pierced me, and my eyelids jumped in pain.
"I know what your friend's last wish is, I'm not unwilling to accept it, I'm not afraid of them, it's a big deal to give up this life, I'm just ......" Xiao Nai looked at Xiao Nai and Xiao Fan, there was hesitation in his tone, and as he was talking, suddenly there was an explosion in the sky, and a bright golden thick line tore through the clouds and slashed towards Xiao Nai in the water!
