"Shi Yao——, Shi Yao! Wake up, wake up quickly! Shi Yao——"
The ethereal calls seemed to come from the distant sky, in a trance, like a dream.
"Shi Yao! Wake up quickly, Shi Yao—"
Shi Yao seemed to be trapped in an endless nightmare. In the dream, parasitic beasts were rushing towards her ferociously, swarming towards her and overwhelmingly surrounding her, making her nervous and frightened. Suffocating her.
Every parasitic beast wanted to devour her whole.
Every parasitic beast is screaming "嘤-嘤-嘤-".
The sounds of squealing one after another, overlapping and pervasive, made her feel uneasy, made her angry, made her heart boil with murderous intent, and made her just want to destroy, destroy everything.
As long as she swallows them all, she will be able to calm down, she won't have to be afraid, and she will be safe.
Devouring, endless devouring, crazy devouring——
The terrifying devouring power emanated from Shi Yao's body, and all the power around her was forcefully swallowed into her body.
"Ah! Shi Yao! Wake up! I'm Zhu Ruyue——"
Zhu Ruyue?
Shi Yao, who was caught in the mad devouring state, immediately paused.
"Zhu Ruyue?"
A name that was strange but familiar to Shi Yao suddenly broke into Shi Yao's mind, making her a little confused and making her involuntarily recall and search for all the memories of "Zhu Ruyue" in her mind. .
"Zhu, Ru, Yue——"
A hoarse voice sounded low in the dark hall, which seemed very scary.
But when Zhu Ruyue heard Shi Yao's words, she was inexplicably surprised and said with difficulty: "Yes, it's me, please let go."
Shi Yao slowly opened his eyes.
A faint red light flashed in her eyes.
At this moment, her mind was gradually clearing up, and her long-standing memories were slowly returning.
But she saw that her hands were actually tightening Zhu Ruyue's neck.
Shi Yao's heart froze, and he immediately loosened his hands, letting go of the grip on Zhu Ruyue, and then slumped to hide his hands behind his back.
"Cough cough cough——"
Zhu Ruyue finally got a chance to breathe, and couldn't help but cover her neck and cough a few times.
"Huh-huh-" Zhu Ruyue took a deep breath and sighed in shock: "I thought that this time, I was really going to die in your hands."
Hearing this, Shi Yao lowered her eyes and whispered hoarsely: "I'm sorry!"
Her apology was so small that it was almost inaudible.
But of course Zhu Ruyue could hear it clearly.
So, Zhu Ruyue said: "But if it weren't for you, I would have died fifty years ago."
Fifty years ago, when the woman discovered that Shi Yao was the person she was looking for, Zhu Ruyue was of no use to her.
So at that time, the woman thought of swallowing Zhu Ruyue directly.
Fortunately, Shi Yao was smart and immediately stopped her: "Since you want me to stay here on your behalf, then you should let her live. Otherwise, I will always find a way to destroy my body."
The woman's eyes turned cold and she said disdainfully: "Haha——, given your current situation, you still dare to threaten me?"
Shi Yao was not frightened by her, but instead said:
"In the future, if I really stay in this cold palace for a long time on your behalf, it will be too lonely without her company. You stay here alone without anyone to accompany you, don't you feel Are you lonely and pitiful?"
Hearing this, the woman seemed to be really moved by Shi Yao's words. She nodded, as if she was pitying herself and Shi Yao, and said:
"Yes, what you said makes perfect sense. Over the years, for countless days and nights, I have been really lonely... If so, then I will help you, hehehe——"
So in this way, the woman really let Zhu Ruyue go.
After that, she really let Zhu Ruyue stay with Shi Yao.
Let Zhu Ruyue watch Shi Yao being forced to swallow countless parasitic beasts in this deep sea palace, watching Shi Yao's mind being affected by swallowing too many parasitic beasts, and watching Shi Yao gradually fall into a state of madness. , madly devouring everything without distinguishing between ourselves and the enemy...
Shi Yao and Zhu Ruyue both knew that the woman would spare Zhu Ruyue's life - the real reason was probably not that simple.
However, no matter what the reason and intention is, as long as they can continue to live, they will still have the opportunity to find a way to escape from the woman's control and escape from this ghost place...
Now, Shi Yao has woken up from her mad state, but the soul in her mind is still aching.
Shi Yao frowned in discomfort and asked in a hoarse voice: "How long did I lose my mind this time?"
Hearing Shi Yao's question, Zhu Ruyue couldn't help but frown and said, "The duration lasted three quarters of an hour longer than last time."
Shi Yao's heart sank, and he sighed: "This is getting longer every time, and this time, it will actually last more than half a day."
Every time, after Shi Yao was forced by the woman to devour one parasitic beast after another, gradually, Shi Yao would be affected by the violent power in her body, affecting her mood and sanity. Slowly, she would lose control. Living in a state of madness.
Hearing this, Zhu Ruyue pursed her lips and said uneasily: "Shi Yao, you must hold on, I don't want to die yet."
"Haha!" Shi Yao smiled hoarsely, "Don't worry, you can't die now."
Because every time Shi Yao wakes up from a state of madness, he will have nearly two days to adjust his breath and repair——
And these two days, in the past fifty years, with the woman's permission, it has almost become a routine.
Therefore, Shi Yao and Zhu Ruyue were safe during these two days.
Of course Zhu Ruyue knew this, so she also understood what Shi Yao meant.
However, after so many years, they still couldn't find a way to leave this place, nor could they get rid of the woman's control.
Therefore, even if we have two days of temporary stability, what is the use?
"Alas -" Zhu Ruyue sighed and said in confusion: "For so many years, she has been forcing you to eat those parasitic beasts - what kind of method will she use to make you be trapped on her behalf? In this palace?"
Having said this, Zhu Ruyue suddenly felt a flash of inspiration in her mind, and immediately used her spiritual consciousness to send a message to Shi Yao: "Could it be that she can't take you away easily? I mean, her The soul should also be imprisoned by the chain, so——"
Shi Yao had already closed her eyes, and while meditating and adjusting her breath, she used her spiritual consciousness to transmit her voice and replied: "So, she must be exchanging souls and bodies with me."
