Needless to say, when they saw Elsa next to An Yu, they were in disbelief at first, and rubbed their eyes several times before walking over.
Cen Xiangyun couldn't help but pull Eve's cheek. After the other party yelled, "Don't you have your own face?", she finally confirmed that this was not a dream. Little Elsa, who was originally thought to have died tragically without even a body left, actually appeared in front of them alive and kicking.
They were all very curious about the changes in little Elsa, especially the fact that one of her eyes had turned into a scary red and black pupil, which made them look sideways frequently.
But no matter what, Cen Xiangyun and Eve were very moved to see Elsa appear alive again.
At this moment, Luo Ling had already given up his position and used some tricks to make them ignore his existence. He just watched silently the surprised reunion of his former teammates, and a faint smile appeared on the corners of his mouth.
She had tried her best to save Victoria from the "doomsday". Even if it was just for this moment, it was enough.
It's just that Cen Xiangyun, Yi Fuxiang and others never mentioned Luo Ling, but Luo Ling could see a hint of expectation and uneasiness in their eyes.
They are afraid.
They are afraid that once they ask, they will get an unacceptable answer.
They were just wondering if Elsa could tell the truth about Luo Ling herself, maybe that would make it easier to accept.
Elsa actually wanted to tell all these things. She looked in Luo Ling's direction frequently, but was still hesitant.
"What if I accidentally disrupt Miss Luo Ling's arrangement?"
Elsa has always been aware that her little head is very stupid, and stupid people should not act on their own and cause trouble for others, so she should try her best not to affect Miss Luo Ling because of such things.
Luo Ling saw all of this. She knew what her teammates were thinking and what Elsa was worried about.
"Let's go to the cenotaph with them."
At this moment, Luo Ling's voice sounded in Elsa's mind.
At the same time, the blue-haired girl who had been ignored had disappeared without anyone noticing.
However, after hearing Luo Ling's words, Elsa already knew Luo Ling's intention and decision, and the smile on her face deepened.
Although Elsa's sudden request to see her own cenotaph was quite strange, Cen Xiangyun and others did not refuse.
Little Elsa has come back alive, and if the cenotaph continues to exist... it would be a bit too unlucky.
After a while, Cen Xiangyun and the others brought Elsa to the location of the cenotaph.
Looking at the black and white photos of Luo Ling and Elsa on the small tombstone, Cen Xiangyun, who buried this cenotaph with her own hands, couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.
Elsa, on the other hand, kept staring at her own grave, as if she had sensed something.
"... Let's take out all of Elsa's clothes first."
Cen Xiangyun hesitated for a moment, but still spoke.
In fact, because Elsa often slept in the same bed with Luo Ling during her "lifetime", their cenotaphs were actually buried together.
Opening a tomb is disrespectful to anyone no matter what.
But...
Little Elsa is watching right next to us now, and we can’t keep her cenotaph here forever.
Even if Miss Luo Ling is really dead, Elsa's clothes still need to be taken out.
Thinking of this, Cen Xiangyun sighed softly.
Eve just remained silent, but soon she and Cen Xiangyun started fighting together.
Soon, a simple coffin was dug out, and it seemed no different from when it was buried before - in fact, it was only two or three months ago, not long ago.
Cen Xiangyun walked forward but still hesitated.
Finally, she let out a long sigh, and together with Eve, she took the coffin and slowly opened it.
"Um?"
Just as they opened the coffin, Cen Xiangyun suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.
After losing their abilities, the physical fitness of Cen Xiangyun and others has declined to varying degrees. Although they are still better than ordinary people, they are no longer able to reach the level of "superman".
Before Cen Xiangyun's doubts were resolved, a panicked cry followed.
"Wait, wait..."
It was An Yu who was standing next to him.
When everyone focused their attention on her face, An Yu's face was filled with doubt and confusion.
"You, is this really a cenotaph?"
"yes."
Cen Xiangyun frowned slightly. She was the one who buried it with her own hands, so how could she have remembered it wrong
"But... "
An Yu raised her hand tremblingly and pointed at the half-opened coffin.
"Senior seems to be inside..."
"???"
Cen Xiangyun and Eve were shocked when they heard this and quickly opened the coffin lid, only to see a familiar gloomy girl lying in the coffin. Her sleeping face was particularly moving, but there was an unspeakable silence in it.
"This, seems to really be..."
Cen Xiangyun and Eve stared at the familiar girl in the coffin. They searched their memories, but could only recall the memory of sealing Luo Ling and Elsa's clothes in the coffin.
Just when they were caught off guard, the black-haired girl suddenly opened her eyes and blinked smartly.
"Hi, Sister Xiangyun, Eve, long time no see."
Chapter 8: We Met Again in the Past (5k)
It was more of a shock than a surprise.
When Cen Xiangyun and Eve saw Luo Ling open his eyes, their faces turned pale.
How is this possible
Miss Luo Ling...how come you are still alive
This sentence is harsh to hear, but it is indeed the first thought that came to their minds when they saw this scene.
Although they had held a glimmer of hope before, in fact, Cen Xiangyun and Eve both knew in their hearts that this was almost impossible.
It was okay for Eve, who was the first to be defeated, because she didn't see anything. Elsa's resurrection didn't shock Cen Xiangyun either, because at that time she only deduced Elsa's death based on the bloodstains at the scene, and there was no real conclusive evidence.
But Luo Ling's death happened clearly in front of Cen Xiangyun. She watched helplessly as Luo Ling was torn to pieces by the sword energy emitted by Lin Jianming, and not even his body was left.
Because of this, when the haunting fact appeared in front of her in such an unexpected way, Cen Xiangyun's first reaction was...
“Ghost!”
Only An Yu's eyes lit up and he said,
"Senior Luo Ling! Are you...really a senior?"
"Of course."
Luo Ling sat up from the coffin. Seeing everyone's reactions, a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes, and the smile on his face was hard to suppress.
When Elsa met them, Luo Ling couldn't stop thinking about this prank. After struggling for a while, he finally couldn't help but put it into practice.
As for the exact location of the cenotaph, Luo Ling already knew it. It was buried there together with Cen Xiangyun when she played Eve.
However, Luo Ling later returned this memory to Eve, the first guest of the Divine Kingdom Hotel, so that this thick-skinned and iron-fisted maid always believed that it was something that she and Cen Xiangyun had experienced.
Unconsciously, Luo Ling had accomplished a series of achievements, including attending his own funeral, burying his own grave with his own hands, mourning himself in front of his grave, and opening his own coffin.
This kind of thing, which ordinary people may not encounter once in their lifetime, is already commonplace for Luo Ling.
"You, you..."
Looking at Luo Ling, who was rarely smiling because of the success of her prank, Cen Xiangyun couldn't utter a complete sentence for a long time, and her delicate face turned as red as a pig's head.
The reason was simple. As the unlucky person who had been deceived by Luo Ling's death the most times, Cen Xiangyun's thoughts after being frightened were quite complicated.
Happy and angry, sad and happy, all kinds of extremely complicated thoughts kept emerging from her mind, making it difficult for her to control herself for a while.
After thousands of thoughts flashed through her mind one by one, Cen Xiangyun rushed directly to Luo Ling and hugged her tightly.
It was not until she truly felt the softness and warmth of the petite body in her arms that she finally accepted this reality. With an unconcealable sadness, she sobbed and whispered,
"Welcome back, you big liar..."
"Um... I'm sorry, I lied to you."
Luo Ling did not break free. The smile on his face eased a little. He spoke apologetically and gently hugged Cen Xiangyun with his backhand.
It has to be said that Miss Cen was the person who shed the most tears among everyone because of her "death", mainly because Elsa, the little pearl king, had always known the truth, but Cen Xiangyun had been kept in the dark.
From the initial train battle in Jiangcheng County, to the accidental loss in the "realm of nothingness", and to faking her death to leave the quagmire of Victoria and move behind the scenes, the saddest person among them is Miss Cen.
Luo Ling felt somewhat guilty towards Cen Xiangyun in his heart. Because there were too many things, Luo Ling had no choice but to hide them for the time being.
So even though Cen Xiangyun had already cried so much that her shoulders were wet, Luo Ling allowed her to continue venting the emotions that had accumulated over this period of time on him.
It was unknown how long it had been, but Miss Cen's eyes had turned red from crying, and Luo Ling had been turned into a tearful person, before she finally let go of her arms.
Looking at Luo Ling's almost soaked white dress shoulder straps, she could vaguely see her delicate collarbone and slightly poor figure. Cen Xiangyun also realized that she had just been a little too out of control, and lowered her head and said,
"Sorry..."
"No problem."
Luo Ling just smiled and didn't care.
She raised her hand and waved it gently, and in an instant, she had woven a new piece of clothing with mycelium, and changed it in the blink of an eye - in fact, the clothes she had just worn were also woven with mycelium so that they could adapt to the body shape when changing form.
Ever since she understood the true use of mycelium, Luo Ling has been wearing clothes woven with mycelium.
Otherwise, no matter how hard they tried, "White Witch" and "Purple Pearl" would not be able to wear the same clothes...
I have to say that Puppet Yao's little abilities are really useful in daily life and can be regarded as little life skills.
Of course, only Luo Ling could use it this way. Even Su Wan, the real owner of Puppet Song, could not have imagined that Luo Ling would use this terrifying ability in various unimaginable places...
After a brief surge of emotions, Cen Xiangyun and others quickly calmed down.
This cenotaph will certainly not remain, after all, Luo Ling and Elsa are still alive.
Thus, Luo Ling achieved new success.
—Dig your own grave with your own hands.
"Why do I always feel like this will happen again..."
During the process of digging the grave, Luo Ling couldn't help but have this absurd and bizarre thought in his mind.
After some preparation, Luo Ling and others found a cafe nearby and sat down.
The main reason is that the apartment where the Twin Ponytails team lived has been vacated, otherwise it might have been more convenient to get together there.
"Has Lu Manqing never appeared since then?"
Luo Ling pondered, she didn't notice this.
Lu Manqing rarely escaped from the Divine Kingdom Hotel. When Alyssa and Stasha were fighting, Lu Manqing displayed unprecedented escape skills and then disappeared in a flash.
Luo Ling originally thought that she had returned to the "company" headquarters, and like other low-level awakeners, was receiving protection from the order-side organization.
Now it seems...
"This sister may have hidden as much as I do." Luo Ling said silently in his heart.
But this is normal. If she can hide things, why can't Lu Manqing hide it
Regarding the confusing truth of the whole matter, Luo Ling still chose not to tell Cen Xiangyun and others everything.
It's not that she wanted to hide it deliberately, but the mere incident of "digging a living person out of a grave" today had already brought such a drastic emotional change to Cen Xiangyun.
If the fact that Luo Ling is the "White Witch" is revealed...
Luo Ling was really worried that Cen Xiangyun would suddenly die after hearing this, and she had to rescue her herself.
I'll explain it in detail later when I have a chance.
As for how Luo Ling and Elsa came back to life, Eve and Cen Xiangyun tactfully did not ask any further questions.
Everyone has their own secrets, Lu Manqing, Luo Ling, and they are no exception.
