The invisible sword cut off the water curtain, and the fairy pavilion in the void disappeared like a dreamy bubble, as if the shadow had never appeared in the first place.
Lin Xixue stood there in astonishment.
"I obviously saw it, I obviously saw it, why not? Am I hallucinating? But I clearly saw it!"
She recalled her magic sword and swung it wildly at the waterfall, causing water to splash everywhere. The waterfall, which was originally flowing upwards, crashed downwards.
After swinging the sword a few times, she suddenly stopped again, holding her heart in her hands, using her mouth and nose together, and sucking in air.
But the feeling of coughing became increasingly uncontrollable. She sat down, covered her mouth and nose with her hands, and coughed violently.
Every time he coughed, bean paste-colored dirty blood gushed out from between his fingers. At the end of the cough, he spit out a big mouthful of blood.
She put her elbows on the ground and kept repeating in a low voice: "I clearly saw it, why not, why not, why, why, why..."
Hong Yanzi's last words, which she had originally ignored, suddenly appeared in her mind at this time for some unknown reason.
At that time, she only thought that Hong Yanzi wanted to continue to mislead her before his death, but now that she thought about it, what Hong Yanzi said may not be all lies.
Indeed, he began to have various hallucinations after removing the parasitic eggs from his body.
Am I really the granddaughter of Hong Yanzi? Have I really been crazy since childhood? Is the so-called soul-fixing Gu just for suppressing his own madness?
No, if this is the case, how should we explain the sachet of love token taken from the dead slave.
She wanted to take out the sachet to confirm the authenticity of her memory, but she searched all over her body and couldn't find it.
No, they are all lying to me, Tianzun is lying to me, Hong Yanzi is lying to me, they are all lying to me, you all, get out of my mind, get out!
It's entirely possible that the sachet fell somewhere. Just because the sachet is missing doesn't mean that what Hong Yanzi said must be true.
They are all lying to me. They are still trying to lie to me after they die. I can’t be fooled. I definitely can’t be fooled!
She became agitated and coughed a few more times, but perhaps because there was no more blood flowing in her body, these coughs only produced a few mouthfuls of blood foam.
She slumped on the ground helplessly, with a strong sense of exhaustion that left her unable to muster any strength.
She glanced at Bai Qing beside her. The original sickly redness had faded away, and now her face was as pale as paper, without any trace of blood.
Fortunately, I still have someone to accompany me when I die, so it’s not the worst outcome. Lin Xixue unconsciously leaned towards Bai Qing and slowly closed her eyes.
The waterfall rushing into the pool with a loud roar was heard by my ears.
In the darkness, the ward with heaven and earth completely reversed appeared in front of him again.
"Calm down, I'm going to die, so stop using such crude illusions to scare people," Lin Xixue complained silently.
But in a daze, she seemed to suddenly understand something.
Many things in the fantasy world correspond to reality. For example, I pierced the halo in the illusion, and Hong Yanzi's heart was broken by me in reality.
So what does it mean in a ward where heaven and earth are reversed?
She opened her eyes suddenly and saw the waterfall flowing backwards in front of her.
Up is down, down is up!
Perhaps this waterfall was not supposed to flow upward, but for some reason the flow direction was suddenly reversed.
This waterfall was supposed to flow downward, so the path that was originally washed out should naturally be at the bottom. She finally figured it out.
She looked down at the bottomless abyss, and her heart began to beat.
The exit at the bottom was just a conjecture she made in a flash of inspiration. Whether it was true or not was completely impossible to confirm.
The remaining strength she had now couldn't carry the two of them down anymore. At best, she could only slow down their descent.
Jumping from such a high abyss, even if the falling speed is reduced, if there is no water source below to buffer, I am afraid that the whole body will not fall down in the end.
But if you continue to stay here, you are just waiting for death. They are all dead anyway, and it makes no difference whether there is a whole body or not.
After only hesitating for a moment, she picked up the unconscious Bai Qing and jumped down the waterfall.
The jade book surrounded the two of them, and its falling speed slowed down slightly. Lin Xixue just coughed hard this time, but could not vomit any blood.
Blood and tears fell from the corners of his eyes, his vision became darker and darker, and the sounds he heard became farther and farther away, as if he had put on soundproof earplugs. The sound of water rushing close to him could not be heard clearly at this moment.
It's like having 800 degrees of myopia without wearing glasses. In the blurry field of vision, there is only a black brilliance that rotates endlessly.
Lin Xixue felt as if she was about to be pulled out of this world.
Finally, she heard nothing and saw nothing. She just felt that she had fallen into a huge pool of water.
After her body suffered a huge shock, she felt the cold liquid pour into her nose and throat, and an unknown force pushed her forward.
The last thought in her mind was to hold on to Bai Qing tightly and not let the undercurrent wash away the two of them.
Her consciousness gradually faded, and she knew nothing.
...
"Goooooh——"
It was late night, and Lin Xixue was awakened by the sound of roosters crowing.
She dozed off a little tiredly, then sat up suddenly and looked around alertly.
In some old bamboo houses, the beds and furniture are all made of woven bamboo, coir raincoats and bamboo hats are hung on the walls, and fishing nets are drying outside the windows.
It looks like an ordinary fisherman's home.
She searched around and found that Bai Qing was not in the room.
Thinking about it, Bai Qing was so seriously injured that she either died or was sent to the hospital, so naturally she wouldn't be here. Of course, it is not impossible to be dispersed by the undercurrent.
He sat back on the couch and checked his current state.
The black feather coat was still draped on the outside, but someone had changed the clothes underneath for her - a slightly frayed linen shirt, but it still fit well.
She lifted up her sleeves and checked. The original torn muscles and broken bones had all been restored at this moment, and not even a single scar was left.
If there was any difference, it was that his skin had a sickly pale color, as if he had been dead for more than ten days, without blood.
There was no mirror in the house, and bronze mirrors were rare in this world. They were not something that ordinary farmhouses would have, so she could only freshen up according to her feelings.
She opened the door, and a fishy smell hit her face. Before it was completely bright, a group of fishermen were already sorting all kinds of fish by the lake.
If the fish is not in good condition, it will be thrown into the pot and cooked into fish and rice. If the fish is in better condition, it will be taken to the market to exchange for money to make a living.
In the fishing village, everyone, men, women, old and young, all came forward to help sort. In the busyness, no one noticed Lin Xixue coming out.
Lin Xixue knows that the freshness of the catch is very important, and there is no low-temperature preservation technology in this world. If time is delayed, the catch will become rotten, and it will not be sold for a penny.
She was the type who didn't want to cause trouble to others, so she just watched everyone busy quietly and did not come forward to disturb them.
After everyone finished sorting, had fish and rice, and rushed to the market with their burdens, Lin Xixue stepped forward and found a middle-aged woman who looked kind enough to ask.
Unexpectedly, when the middle-aged woman saw Lin Xixue, she immediately showed a look of horror, lowered her head, avoided her eyes, picked up the bamboo basket on her wrist, and walked away quickly...
