Chapter 75: Rescue
"What did you say?!What has been 'ruined'?!" Before I could answer, the three elves "Hum!" suddenly appeared from the shadows, rushed to the front of the Mizusawa fairy, and asked urgently in unison.
"Of course, it's the ancient elven kingdom that you have in mind. It's already ruined. The Mizusawa fairy was tied up solidly, and her body couldn't move, but she just twisted her neck, turned her face, and looked at the elf in front of her who was so anxious that she flapped her wings, and her tone was extremely cold. Her long neck twisted at an incredible angle, and her sea-blue curls wrapped around it, making her face look like a brittle flower growing from snow-white branches and inky blue leaves—brittle but not broken, and her stubborn eyes supported the bones of her face.
"You...... Are you Aoi?" Xiao's tone was uncertain.
"And a second Aoi?" said the fairy, her eyes looking toward the water.
"According to the elven old man we met in the tree hole, you should be right...... name, and the blue mole in the center of the eyebrows...... "The little tweed turned his face to look at me, and he had no idea on his face.
"Have you personally been to the Elven Ancient Kingdom?" asked Xiao Phantom in a cold voice.
"Of course—I've heard your own well......" Aoi said coldly.
"The Well of Eternity!" Xiao Jiao shouted.
"Then the Well of Eternity, I heard the sound of the well being blown up. Xiao Kui's tone was a little uncalm, and her eyes frequently looked at Mizusawa.
"What! The Well of Eternity was—" The three elves exclaimed, and Xiao Jiao seemed to want to lift his breath, and as soon as he raised his body a little, he fell to the ground with a desperate muffled sound. I stepped over and held him in the palm of my hand.
A footstep approached quickly, fast and steady, one step at a time, I heard my heart tighten slightly, looked up, a white-bearded old man had arrived in front of him, made a gesture at a few of us, ruddy face, kind eyebrows, opened his mouth, his voice was very full: "I really have a lot of thanks! Everyone recommended the little old man to come over to express my gratitude, how many families have broken the mirror to reunite, and rekindle hope, all rely on your feats......" said while bowing down.
This embarrassed us. Forget the words hurriedly reached out to support the old man's arm, and said softly: "Don't do this big gift, just come back with the children." ”
"I don't know what you want, but we should do our best to meet them. The old man smiled heartily and brushed the white beard on his chest as he spoke.
"You're welcome. You should do your best. Forget to say and continue to speak softly.
"Okay, please leave your names, and we will spread the good name of all the kings to the world—come here," the old man said with a smile, and turned back and beckoned: "You can take this water demon down first, and deal with it later." ”
As soon as the words fell, two middle-aged men stepped forward and bent down to carry the water fairy.
The elf shouted in my ear, "Hurry, save Aoi!"
I saw that I made a gesture towards the wind, and leisurely blocked it in front of the fairy Xiaokui, and still said softly: "What are you doing?"
The old man laughed and said, "Now that the children have returned, the hearts of the parents have also fallen to the ground. This water demon, how to deal with it, it can be regarded as an explanation to everyone, and this matter is over. ”
Suddenly, I heard a low cry from Kazama, and pointed with his hand: "Look at it!" We glanced in the direction she pointed, and at this time, the moon receded and the stars were hidden, and the morning light appeared.
"What's that?" I whispered, feeling bad.
"Big pumps—they're going to drain the water!" he whispered.
"What do you want?!" I shouted as I jumped in front of the old man.
"This little girl, with rolling cheeks and childishness, but just now she entered the water with your brother, and she didn't frown a brow, she is really bold—but," the old man smiled, and changed his words: "I see that you are talking and talking with these elves and ghosts, and it is really worrying, don't get mixed up with those strange and strange aliens!"
I was still too young and naïve, and as soon as I came up, I was frightened by the kindness and heartiness of this old man, and I had a good impression of him, and when he had something to say and intended to turn his face, I didn't know what to say to deal with it. The mouth was clumsy and angry, and he choked there for a while.
"The world says that our blood clan is ruthless and turns our faces and denies it, haha, it seems that in front of you humans, we are still willing to bow down!" a cold voice said as he ghostly stood beside me. "Breath!" he spat out two more words and reached out and tapped me on the head. It's Luoying.
"For the sake of old disrespect, go back on your word—where do you put your face?" Luo Ying chuckled. His eyes were fixed on the old man. In the smoky blue morning light, he was dressed in a navy blue shirt, as if he had been outlined by a heavy brush, and the lines were clear and cold. A snow-white face, the corners of the eyes, eyebrows, and mouth were all shaded by lead blue, and there was a murderous echo.
"Little Lao'er, don't want this old face!" The old man rolled his eyes, smiled, and slapped his face lightly: "It stands to reason that this water demon should indeed be handed over to you, but, seeing that your brothers and sisters are very young, they must not have started a family yet, and they have no children or daughters, how can they experience the pain of losing a child......
"Didn't the kids help you get it back!" Kazama choked.
"How can the pain in my heart be dissipated? If you don't kill this water demon, it's hard for the people to be angry!" the old man still smiled, but his tone was not relaxed.
"Then it is not enough to drain the water with this pump, but to kill it all?
"You little girl," the old man said with a smile, and a pair of white beards shook in his chest: "Look at what you said, the word 'vicious' is not nonsense, it depends on who you are right against, these ...... Man is not a man, a demon is not a demon, the name is not right, and it is a scourge to grow like this, to charm children, and to remain in this world......"
"That's what you really think in your hearts, isn't it?" Another person spoke, his voice was slender, but quite powerful—a small thin whip, striking on the skin, and a red mark went down: "If the name is not right, it cannot stay in this world, and it should be eradicated, so who is the right person in this world?" He also came to us, and he was taller than me.
"We humans are rightly speaking. The old man smiled and said, "Of course, you ......."
"Our blood clan?" Jicheng interrupted him, "We suck blood, snatch your children, and never die, I don't know if we are a hundred times more evil than this water banshee, why don't we see you come to destroy us?"
"Do you think we don't want to?" suddenly the voice of a mysterious woman, turning her face, turned her face to see that it was actually the gray-purple robe, the crying woman fighting with her son in the water!
"I want to whest your tendons, pick your bones, drink your blood......! These ......" she pointed at us tremblingly, and her tone was so sad that there was an unexpected softness - bitter, hateful, her tone had no support, and she staggered: "I have ruined my family...... Loss of a child...... Lost another child...... This world is too bitter...... How can you hold on......"
The old man had a lot of words, and I heard them in my ears, but I was just irritable. But the gray-purple robed woman's tone was drifting, like a headless raindrop, hitting my heart, but it was a secret pain - my heart was still hard.
"Lost another child. But her son had already returned, and was now standing not far behind her. I looked at it, and I understood—the young man had returned, but he was shrugged and staggered, his eyes open, and his face was dejected—his soul had remained in the water, and he was already a wasted man in this world.
Forgetting to speak, he stepped forward, and without waiting for the woman to refuse, he took her hand and whispered a few words in his ear, not knowing what he had said. I saw that the woman's eyes were straight, and there was light under her eyes, and her upper lip was slightly open, and she breathed soundly, as if the words she had forgotten to say were burning her. All of a sudden, he cast his eyes on my face, and it was like a tongue, and it rolled up in my face, and I was so frightened that I shook my body and dodged.
When she had finished speaking, the woman looked up at him for a moment, as if she were counting the birds in the nest on the branch overhead—and when she had counted them, she bit her lip, and did not know whether she believed the words or herself, and turned and dragged her son away.
"The ground is sinking!" Kazama suddenly exclaimed.
I looked down and sure enough, the ground beneath my feet was so soft and muddy that I couldn't bear my weight, and I was sinking uncontrollably into the ground!
The ears have heard the screams repeatedly, and as far as the eye can see, people are already in a mess, supporting each other, pulling, jumping, shouting, in the powder blue morning light, like a pot of boiling water, gurgling and bubbling fresh blisters, one after another.
"Be careful—" Hua Hai and her brother ran out of the bushes, Hua Hai ran faster than his brother, and her face was terrified—she had almost been swallowed up by the swamp of the wetland, and in the blink of an eye she ran to us, not daring to take another half step forward on her feet, but desperately stretched out her arms and handed them to us.
"What a fairy!" Jijo pulled me and raised his face towards the water.
I noticed that all the fairies had cut off their hair, and the flowers on their sideburns were nowhere to be found, and they looked like a group of handsome-looking frightened little boys, like fresh beans stripped of their pods.
"Aoi-run-" The fairies whispered in unison.
"You're all here!" Xiao Kui's face was surprised, and then she turned from joy to sorrow, and said softly, "It's okay if you're okay...... The spell of the water grass has been lifted, and there is no need to be coerced by him in the future...... Get out of here, leave me alone, get out of here......! They're going to drain our house! Run...... What's wrong with your hair? Where's your hair?"
"Drain our house!" One of the fairies sneered, "Even if we allow it, I'm afraid someone won't allow it!"
"Let's go, let's go, leave me alone, where the hell is your hair? Something like that! And why is the ground sinking? What the hell is going on?" exclaimed Aoi. In front of her companions, she is also an impatient little girl.
"Do you remember our old neighbor, that long-standing water snake - what I think about is our hair!" The old fairy stroked the water with her hand, and got closer to Xiaokui, and closer to the human, quite fearless: "Just now you were caught by the human, we didn't go anywhere, went straight to the snake's lair under the water, cut off all the hair and gave it to him, and he saved you - but a snake is more than a human talk! Be careful - he is coming!"
The fairy shouted, only to see the water tumbling, half of the snake's body out of the water, the snake's body was about the thickness of a hug, and the dark green scales were sprinkled with black dots. The head of the snake is hidden underwater, and the tail of the snake sweeps along the water. Everyone was busy falling under their feet, not beware of a thick green storm sweeping by, and the sharp qi with water, fishy gas, and scales was darkened, and they fell in an instant.
I stared at the snake, the green serpent was too thick in color, and the sunlight suddenly broke free from the heavy cloud that dragged it on, and bounced lightly, and the light burst out of its shell, and sprinkled over everything with joy. The tail of the big snake was illuminated all over the body, as if it had eyes, and swept and smashed towards those people, but it was a few of us, and every time his tail was about to sweep it, he would dodge it intentionally or unintentionally, which was really amazing.
The old man was an acquaintance, and he ran to Xiao Kui's side with a rolling belt, and trembled to untie the rope that bound Xiao Kui. There were some unwilling people in the crowd, shouting loudly and in a low voice, and the old man turned around and shouted: "Horizontal and vertical is a life, what can you do if you let her go! For the sake of this water demon, is the big guy ready to die here? If anyone is willing to contribute his life, I will not!"
"Yes, yes, my own life is the most important thing. It no longer matters what 'people are not human, whether they are demons or not'. Hehe, humans......" Luo Ying smiled.
Seeing that the rope had been untied, Xiao Kui didn't even glance at the old man, stretched his body, and jumped towards the water.
"Aoi-chan!" I shouted. Her body was already arched, like a fish, about to enter the water, heard my voice, looked back, looked at my face, and there was still room to stretch out her fingers and make a movement!
She, Aoi, looked back at me a moment before entering the water, suddenly clasped her fingers around the center of her eyebrows, and gently picked off something - that little blue mole!
