This is their third day in this big village.
In the early morning, Dai Luan and Xi Yu took Mo Liang to the market. There was something wrong with the atmosphere when they woke up in the morning. Dai Luan noticed that something was wrong, so she and Xi Yu immediately took him away, preparing to quietly ask questions outside. This morning, Shanhai and Mu Wan were supposed to pick up the old man as agreed. Mu Wan originally wanted to take this opportunity to ask Shan Hai about what happened to them in the mirage. But his face was exhausted and his energy was very low. So she asked him to rest in the room and asked Ye Yuejun if he wanted to go. Ye Yuejun agreed, and Mu Wan thought it would be the same to ask her. Although she was not a very observant person, the different reactions of the three people to this big dream made her realize that it was not that simple.
To be honest, Ye Yuejun doesn't look good, but since she is willing to go out with her, she should be able to say something.
Shi Wuqi and Ah Qi stayed in the house, and they wanted to continue drying the Luoshen sand. Walking in the courtyard, they cooperated quite tacitly. Miss Qi first spread the big old bed sheet, and Shi Wuqi sprinkled the slightly dry fruits on it. He spread them not very evenly, and Miss Qi followed him and spread them quickly with her hands, spreading them completely on top.
The early morning light was soft, and the weather hadn't started to heat up yet. The temperatureless sunlight penetrated through the trees in the distance and fell into the courtyard. Wait a little later and the sun will shine directly on the yard. Shan Hai leaned against the door, looking at them quietly, his eyes full of indescribable weariness.
"Are you still sleepy?" Shi Wuqi turned around and glanced at him, continuing to work on his hands, "Go back to sleep while the little devils are away."
"It's okay, I'm not sleepy." He pinched the bridge of his nose as he said that, "I just feel too tired."
Shi Wuqi didn't ask what they had experienced. He knew that if Shan Hai wanted to say something, he would say it. And Shan Hai didn't know what to say. It was either inappropriate or meaningless. Regarding his own part, to be honest, he was still immersed in the continuous shock, like a gong that had been struck hard, still buzzing.
Indeed, this is a good opportunity while everyone is away. Although Shan Hai did not fully trust the identity of the banshee, he had no doubts about her words. Her words followed one another, catching them off guard and giving them no time to think about more issues that had been ignored.
"Wu Qi, let me ask you something."
Lin Shanhai didn't want to delay. He knew that the longer he delayed, the less chance he would have to make things clear later. Many things in life are like this. If you don't explain it clearly on the spot, it will always be a joke, and it will make people feel uncomfortable if they think about it unintentionally. Shanhai didn't want to regret this. The less anxious you are to ask this kind of thing, the less urgent the answer will be.
"Huh? You ask."
"how old are you?"
Shi Wuqi's hand froze. It's not that he doesn't want to answer this question, but he didn't expect Shan Hai to ask this question suddenly. He stopped what he was doing and turned around, his eyes a little strange.
"Why do you suddenly want to ask this?"
"That's all you say." Shanhai said, "I remember I mentioned it before, something happened that you can't remember clearly. But you can remember your approximate age? I know you have a special status. You should be younger than us. It's much longer, but I don't know the exact age. You can just give a rough estimate, you don't need to be more precise."
"You're really making things difficult for me... I'll think about it again."
Shi Wuqi picked up his chin and dabbed some powder on it. After feeling a slight discomfort, he wiped it off with the back of his hand and continued to meditate. Even Miss Qi's movements stopped and she stood there stiffly, as if she was frozen. It could be seen that Shi Wuqi was also a little confused.
Time cannot leave any trace on him, Shan Hai thought to himself.
"When we see you again, you have returned from hell..." Shan Hai took a deep breath, his lungs still a little blocked, "When we see you, except for your hair growing longer, there is almost no change in your appearance. From our perspective Come on, you just disappeared for a few months, in fact you also said that you spent a long time there."
"Maybe I was born like this." Wu Qi spread his hands helplessly, "Like an immortal or a half-demon, I can live for a long time. After all, I don't have any memory of my parents. All I can remember is Qi. Speaking of which, you should be the same way. .Your mother is the Six Paths of Impermanence, right? She probably can be like an immortal without practicing."
"I can't say for sure." Shan Hai didn't seem to care about this, "I'm only over twenty, so I can't tell much. I personally believe that life and death are determined by destiny, and wealth is in heaven."
"Isn't that enough?" Shi Wuqi turned around and began to dry the last bits of Roselle sand, "What are you thinking about?"
Shanhai opened his mouth slightly and swallowed the words. He watched quietly as the two people finished their work, washed their hands in the basin, and prepared to go back to the house. The two people passed by the mountains and the sea. He turned around and still leaned at the door, looking at them. The sun shone sideways from behind him, making his face look gloomy.
"Don't you want to come in? There are too many bugs in the summer, don't let them all in. Just close it after you've finished breathing."
"I'm thinking about something."
"Huh? You say."
Miss Qi poured two cups of tea, and Wu Qi picked up one cup and brought it to his mouth, looking up at him.
"Remember the Deadman's Swamp?"
"remember."
"That barrier."
"Which one?"
"The one that was broken by Kutsutsuki-kun."
"Ah, yes."
"Thirty years ago... Thirty years ago, right? I fought with a demon named Xuan Sui, and the demon spirit soaked into Miss Qi's limbs and bones. In addition, her name is not in the Wangui Chronicles. Lord Ruyue said that she was about It's a human being. The demonic energy that people are forced to accept is generally not strong enough to contaminate others, even if they get along day and night."
The tea in my mouth suddenly became bitter and difficult to swallow. Two unbrewed tea leaves slipped into Shi Wuqi's throat, causing his throat to hurt. He put down the water, coughed twice, and his tone became strange.
"What do you want to say?"
The color in his eyes surged and flowed, as if he could shed golden tears.
"You are...have you ever met a person before? A person seeking death."
Did you save him and then kill him?
"That's too much." He put down the cup. "Although I can't remember who it is, I do have these impressions. Why don't you make it more specific? But I can't guarantee that I can remember it."
"A young man, probably... he probably looks somewhat similar to me. You must remember it, because that happened more than twenty years ago, about ten years after you lost your memory."
"You suddenly said that to me... I've been alone for many years. Do you know how long it has been?" Wu Qi felt a little uncomfortable, "Forget it, I didn't mean to say this. Let me think about it - Looks like you? Who? Your family?"
"It's my father." He said truthfully, "I don't want to pursue anything. It's just that the monster in the mirage told me that this happened, and I just wanted to make sure. I don't know whether I should trust her. She came out The ideas are all a bit extreme, Ye Yuejun doesn't seem to think so, but Mo Liang and I feel something is wrong. Now the two of them have some minor conflicts, and we haven't even had time to think about whether these methods are feasible and whether they should be used."
Shi Wuqi's expression softened a little, and he began to recall it seriously. Shan Hai increasingly felt that he had stayed in hell for much longer than they imagined. So Shanhai took the opportunity to tell the story about his parents, hoping that he could match that story with the person in his memory. Shi Wuqi said truthfully:
"I think I am really capable of such a thing. I must have killed many people, but asking me to assist in suicide should be a deep impression on me. What you said always makes me feel paradoxical, like I really did it, and it seems like I heard it from others. If I am sure that I killed it, I will not hide it. It would be better if I didn't. But, if I really did it..."
He looked into Shanhai's eyes.
"——Do you still consider me a friend?"
Before Shan Hai could answer, there was noise coming from the yard. The children in the front yard came back, holding red and green candies in their hands. They returned to the house, and neither of them mentioned the matter again, but went to meet them at the door. Although Mo Liang still didn't smile, she was happier than before going out.
"Heheheheshanhai..."
"What are you doing stupidly?"
Dai Luan stretched out her hand to him.
"After the money is spent, give me some more."
So Shanhai took out the money from his pocket. On the issue of silver, he was not ambiguous. In order to prevent his daughter from being wronged, Lord Dailuan gave him a lot of banknotes before leaving. As long as she doesn't spend according to her house expenses, the money is enough for ordinary people to live for a long time. Dai Luan didn't know about this, after all, she was just a child in their eyes, and they were afraid that she would spend money recklessly. Only Shanhai didn't care. He knew that Aluan was a good boy who never wasted or wasted.
"You are generous." Wu Qi said with a smile, "You are not afraid of being spoiled by the girl."
“How much can a child spend on candy?”
"Too."
While going to the market, Mo Liang told the two girls what happened. He didn't want to say that he was afraid that they would worry, and he had no intention of hiding anything from them. Xi Yu admitted that she was a "selfish person". If she was the one who was cursed, she would rather find someone to replace her, especially a sinner. It would kill two birds with one stone. Mo Liang knew her temper and was not angry. After all, more people thought so in their hearts but did not say so in their mouths. Instead, they talked about benevolence, justice and morality.
Dai Luan is actually one of the people who talks about benevolence, righteousness and morality. She also admits that she is a "common person" who is not good at anything and is greedy for life and afraid of death. But this is not what Shanhai taught her. She clearly knows what is right and what is wrong; what is good and what is evil. Even though she wanted to choose the most effective way, there was a voice deep inside that told her not to do it. Presumably if she was Mo Liang and listened to the banshee and made her choice, she would spend the future in endless regret.
"It would be better to have other ways."
"Yes. Ye Yue-kun thinks so because she is more willing to protect you."
"If it were Chi Li, she wouldn't necessarily do this..."
"Hey, that's because she doesn't know about it yet. When things happen, who knows what someone will do."
After learning that most people are actually very "selfish", and that his candid companions also advised him to think more about Hazuki-kun's good intentions for him, he was no longer so angry.
In fact, it's the same with Hazuki-kun.
