Volume II: Clouds Rise Chapter 139: Mirror

Got into the dark passage, abandoned the light of Yue Dongxue and Xia Ling kept falling, and fell into a bottomless pit.

There was nothing under her feet, Xia Ling lay on Yue Dongxue's back and hugged his neck tightly, for fear that she would be separated from him if she was not careful.

I don't know if it's because their nervous appearance is a little funny, which provokes a burst of exaggerated laughter.

"Hahahaha, don't worry, it's okay, it's almost there, and now that the passage outside is gone, that monster can't come here. ”

I didn't see anyone and only heard his voice, although the person who spoke was comforting the two, but the words made people feel a little smile.

"Who are you?" Yue Dongxue clenched the knife in her hand and let her body fall, vigilantly guarding her surroundings.

"You don't have to worry, I don't have any malice, I'm just like you, I'm just a lost person who strayed here, it's just that I came earlier, I'm a senior, you can call me Jing. ”

"Mirror, how is this name similar to the stinky chicken outside? Xia Ling muttered quietly on Yue Dongxue's back, but she didn't expect that this was also heard by the other party. ”

"What do you say?

"I know, it's the stinky chicken that guards melon seeds every day, and we were still together. ”

Listening to their words, the passage suddenly became silent, and the other party didn't seem to expect to hear the news.

After a long while, "Mirror" spoke again, but this time it was not said to Yue Dongxue and the others.

"Er, these two people, I want them, if you want to rob them, just come!"

"Mirror" said categorically, as if he was declaring sovereignty and like a demonstration, but there was no doubt that he and that person did not get along, and his words also determined the next situation of Yue Dongxue and the two of them.

As soon as he finished speaking, another voice suddenly sounded in the passage, presumably the "Er" in the mouth of "Mirror".

"Hmph, whatever you want, I'm not interested in this kind of lowly garbage. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a red light smaller than a hair suddenly disappeared in the passage, leaving only another white one.

It was also at this time that Yue Dongxue and Xia Ling discovered the two lines that existed in the passage, and they had been falling, and they subconsciously ignored the things in the passage.

Now it seems that from the very beginning, the other party has been following them in another way.

At this moment, the white silk floated in front of the two of them, and the "mirror" spoke again: "Hold on to the silk thread, and I'll take you out of here." ”

With no choice, Yue Dongxue reached out and grabbed the white line in front of her. Because it is too thin, the thread seems to be nothing in the hand.

But even so, it's enough.

The two of them only felt an inexplicable pulling force coming, and the silk thread automatically flew up and wrapped around the two.

The bright light hit, and the two of them only felt that they were being dragged out of the dark passage, and when they opened their eyes, they were already standing on a lawn.

The sun shines warmly on the head, and the grass is full of flowers and plants, but there are no butterflies and bees, and there is a little less charm. On the other side of the meadow, the chicken, who had always been snow-white, happened to look at the two of them for a long time, and there was a simple thatched hut behind him, if it weren't for the red crown on his head, ordinary people might not be able to notice that he was a living thing.

"Are you the mirror?" Xia Ling slid down from Yue Dongxue's back, for some reason, after coming here, she had some strength, at least she could stand without worry.

"It's me, what do you call the two children?"

"Mirror" looked at the two of them, the beak of the chicken was slightly open, and he was laughing at it.

"Ice floes!"

"Xia Ling!"

The two of them reported their names one after another, but they did not move in a hurry, but continued to stand in place to guard against the white rooster in front of them.

"You don't have to do this, if I had tried to harm you, I wouldn't have saved you before. ”

"Mirror" flapped his wings twice as he spoke, and a low table and three futons suddenly appeared on the lawn, and there was a pot of hot tea on it, which should have been placed in the inner realm of the spirit.

Like "Yue", "Mirror" also has claws on its wings, just like human hands.

Sitting on the futon, "Jing" picked up the teapot and poured three cups of tea, and motioned to the two: "Please!"

Xia Ling hesitated to look at the ice floe, but saw that he walked directly to the futon and sat down, so she also sat side by side.

"Drink this cup of tea first, and I'll answer all your questions. ”

"Mirror" said as he pushed the tea in front of the two. Xiaotao Chinese

Picking up the teacup, a trace of purple spiritual power in Yue Dongxue's hand was transmitted to the cup, and seeing that there was nothing unusual, he nodded to Xia Ling.

Xia Ling got his permission, and naturally she was no longer hypocritical, and the two drank the tea together.

As soon as the tea entered the abdomen, Yue Dongxue only felt that a vigorous life force spread out in the body, spreading to every part of the body, not only making up for the spiritual power in the body, but also sweeping away the tiredness, making people instantly refreshed.

As for the taste of this tea, of course it is tasteless. However, Yue Dongxue subconsciously remembered the clear spring in the Yin and Yang Realm of Ice and Fire, both of which are like ordinary water, and the taste is similar, but the difference in effect is the same.

But the water was just a refreshing sensation for him, and it wasn't so unusual.

On the other hand, Xia Ling, the moment she drank the tea, the rich vitality directly wrapped her, and at a speed visible to the naked eye, her face began to change from old to full and white, more delicate than the flowers on the lawn.

Not only that, but the original withered yellow hair has also become pitch black like a waterfall, and the glory of the girl has reappeared, and the original wrinkles have long disappeared.

"I ...... Am I recovered?" Xia Ling looked at her white green jade fingers in disbelief, subconsciously touched her face, looked up at the "mirror", and finally fell on Yue Dongxue's body.

Seeing Yue Dongxue nodding, Xia Ling's eyes were suddenly covered with a layer of mist, and she sobbed quietly. For a woman, what could she care more about than her youthful appearance?

On the contrary, the moon and winter snow did not change, which made the "mirror" look a little higher, but he also saw the emotion in Xia Ling's eyes, so there was only a little smile in his eyes.

"What is this?" Yue Dongxue ignored Xia Ling's reaction and looked at the "mirror" and asked.

"Water of Life!"

"Mirror" said, tilting his head and raising his wings to point to the corner of the hut. Following his white feathers, Yue Dongxue saw that there was a thin tree in the corner of the wall, with two leaves growing on it. Even Xia Ling stopped sobbing, and the pear blossom looked at the small tree with rain.

"Do you remember the tree you escaped from?"

"What do you mean?"

Seeing the two of them looking at themselves, the "mirror" explained: "That is its branch, which grows every few years, and the tea you drink is brewed with its leaves." ”

I don't say who "it" is, but since "mirror" mentions trees, there must be nothing else.

Xia Ling raised her sleeves to easily wipe away her tears, looked at the "mirror" suspiciously, and asked, "But...... How did that tree's leaves end up here?"

"Mirror" smiled, no matter how disobedient his chicken head was, and continued to explain: "There is nothing impossible, the place where we are is is above it, it has grown for countless years, and naturally there are times when it stands up to the sky. ”

"But we obviously fell just now!" Xia Ling was still puzzled, not understanding what it meant.

Yue Dongxue thought of another possibility, and asked uncertainly: "Ball?"

"Clever!"

"Mirror" did not hesitate to praise himself, and he also appreciated the moon and winter snow even more.

said: "That's right, it's a ball, this place seems flat, but in fact, the whole heaven is a round ball, as long as you keep walking in one direction, it will eventually appear at the place where you started at the beginning." But one thing you're wrong about is that it's a ball, but it's only half a ball. ”

"At that time you were moving forward in the dark, and in fact you were going down all the time without reference. And that passage seems to be downward, but in fact it just falls in the hemisphere, and when it reaches a certain point, it slowly shifts again, allowing you to fall to the original point. So before you know it, you have circled the whole "heaven", but you are not aware of it!"

After saying this, he suddenly lifted his feather, moved the table away, and by the way, lifted a pit in the grass.

The pit was only a foot shallow, but when I looked down, there was only a thin transparent film, and below the membrane were countless branches and leaves, but there were no glowing fruits. Even so, the two recognized the tree inside.

"Why is this place so weird?"

After the surprise, Xia Ling had already been re-distracted, and when she saw this magical scene, she naturally asked again.

"Mirror" didn't mind her question, and patiently explained to the two: "Actually, it's not difficult to understand, 'Heaven' and 'Tianshu' were originally just one world, one yin and one yang, one bright and one dark, but later for some reasons, the world was separated and became two worlds. It's like a melon split in half, and where we are, it's just one end of the hemisphere. ”

As if afraid that the two would not understand, the "mirror" beckoned back to the table, covered the meadow by the way, and then drew a cross on the table with his paws. Pointing to the upper end of the cross, the mirror continued: "We are here now, and the place where you fled was on the left, and then you entered the passage, and you have been circulating in it. ”

"Mirror" said and pointed to the left and right ends of the cross, and also drew an arc to connect them, explaining very carefully.

Of course, this is only for Xia Ling, as for Yue Dongxue, she already understands the meaning of "mirror", and she also knows why "mirror" asked them not to enter that door at that time, because going back there is the interior of this hemisphere, and it is also the place where they escaped.

Thinking about the key, Yue Dongxue once again asked a more noteworthy question.

"What is the relationship between you and Yue, why are you here and he is outside, who is he just now, what is the secret of that tree?"

Even if they had already thought that they would ask this question, but when they really asked, "Mirror" was still a little in a trance, raised his head, and slowly spoke with pain in his eyes.

"That's a long story!"
