I couldn't help interrupting Let's narration, and asked curiously: "Does the resurrection technique that old man Zhou said really exist?"
Let explained: "The so-called resurrection is just a relative concept, a term of awe for technologies that we don't yet understand. For example, it is very common for us to cut the brain and transplant internal organs now, but if the ancients see If you see it, you will definitely be shocked to say that it is the secret technique of bringing the dead back to life. Mermaids can only use their own spirit beads to revive drowning people, and the time is strictly limited, and there is no way to treat terminal illnesses of the human type.”
I nodded, "Understood"
let continued: "Originally, this was not a big deal. The little mermaid is not the first one to save the human mermaid with her precious spirit beads, and certainly not the last. Anyway, the mermaid's lifespan is far longer than that of human beings. She Just wait patiently until the human prince dies and get the pearl back. After the little mermaid rescued the prince, she decided to send the prince to land. In order to ensure that the prince was rescued, the little mermaid sent him to a human The place where she lived. When she hid behind the reef and saw the unconscious prince being rescued by someone, she felt relieved and planned to return to the deep sea, but she was discovered by a human fishing boat. Because of the storm at sea and rescue Prince, the little mermaid is very exhausted. In the process of escaping from human capture, the little mermaid was seriously injured. She must get her spirit orb back, or she will die. However, once the prince loses the spirit orb, he will die. "
My whole heart was hanging when I heard it. I knew the ending of the story, but I still asked nervously: "Has the little mermaid gone to the prince to get back her spirit bead?"
Let said: "Although mermaids are a powerful race, they love peace and never kill at will. The principle of transferring mermaid spirit beads is not killing, but willingness. Just like mermaids willingly give up spirit beads to save princes, princes also The mermaid must be willing to give up the orb, so that the mermaid can get back her own. But who would give up his life so easily? The little mermaid didn't know what to do, so she had to ask for help from the witch who followed her family. The witch is a human being, and she understands human nature very well It is absolutely impossible for a human to give up his life for the little mermaid. The only possibility is to make him fall in love with the little mermaid. My grandma said that love is the most magical witchcraft in the world, it can make selfish Those who are selfless, those who are cowardly are brave, those who are greedy are kind, and those who are cunning are dull. With the help of the witch, the little mermaid landed on land and came to the side of the prince, but the prince has fallen in love with the girl who rescued him from the seashore and carefully Take care of his human girl. No matter how beautiful and intelligent the little mermaid is, and how hard she tried to attract the attention of the prince, the prince never fell in love with her, but always loved the kind-hearted human girl. In desperation, the witch prepared a sharp She wanted to help the little mermaid get back the spirit orb by force. However, the little mermaid fell in love with the upright and loyal prince. No matter how the witch and sisters begged, she gave up again willingly. The Lingzhu turned into bubbles and died, and exchanged his long life for the short happiness of the human prince, and even he didn't know what the little mermaid had paid for him."
Let lowered his head and gently wiped away the teardrops with a tissue.
Let's tears made my heart turbulent, wishing that I was just in a nightmare, and as long as I woke up, nothing happened. I try my best to tell myself that it’s just a story, a very distant story, but I know better than anyone else, how could let let come here on purpose, just simply tell me a story, and tell it to tears
Let raised his head, staring at me sharply, like a sharp dagger, against my lifeline, not allowing me any retreat.
I asked with a trembling voice: "If a human has a mermaid spirit bead, what symptoms will her body have?"
"There will be no abnormal changes on the surface, and the testing equipment in the hospital will not be able to detect it at all. It is impossible for her to grow a fish tail, it is impossible for her to suddenly come and go in the water freely, and it is impossible for her to live longer. However, Her body will become better than before, she will hardly get sick, and if she gets sick, she will recover faster than others."
I murmured, "It turned out to be like this."
let say: "regu"
I stood up, trying to restrain the shock and fear in my heart, and said to her: "Please leave"
Let said eagerly: "Little Luo, let me finish my words, I have to tell you"
I pointed at the door and said sharply: "The matter between me and Wu Julan, if you don't come, you must tell me what you want to say. Let Wu Julan tell me yourself."
"Little snail, regu"
I lost control of my emotions and covered my ears and screamed, "I told you to leave, leave immediately"
Let hurriedly walked towards the door, "Okay, I'll leave, I'll leave immediately" She stood at the door and said loudly: "Little Luo, I know you need a little time to accept everything I said, I will wait your decision."
The door slammed shut, and I was alone in the room.
I still covered my ears and stood motionless. However, if you don't listen to some things, you can treat them as if they don't exist.
Through the hazy tears, I can see that everything around me is still familiar, but the original warmth of the room has turned into biting cold, and the boundless darkness surges from all directions, drowning me from head to toe, making me It was hard to even breathe.
I panicked and fled the house without taking anything. I vaguely heard the front desk talking to me, but I turned a deaf ear and walked straight out of the building.
I didn't know the direction, I walked casually, there was nowhere to go anyway, I just wanted to stay away from Wu Julan.
cold
The wind blows on the body, bringing a biting coolness.
I think I should calm down and think about it, but every inch of my body is filled with panic and anger, making my brain feel chaotic and desolate. I don't know what to think or what to do. Can keep walking.
As I was walking, a blue lake appeared in front of my eyes, and I stopped before I knew it.
Although I can be regarded as a child who grew up by the sea, my affection for water is not deeper than that of other human beings. It was not until I fell in love with Wu Julan, a mermaid from the depths of the ocean, that I really fell in love with water.
Any time I see blue water, I can't help but smile. The homonym of Wu Julan is Wujulan, the person I love lives in blue water
Because I fell in love with a person, I fell in love with everything related to him. Everything that represents him will make me feel warm and happy.
But now I look at the lake, but I don't feel warm and happy.
Because, I can't help but think about the warmth and happiness that Wu Julan gave me, is it because of me, or because of the mermaid spirit in my body
I stood by the lake, staring at the lake quietly, recalling everything that happened after I met Wu Julan.
That sad morning, I opened the door, and he fell in the yard of my house.
His bare feet were covered with bruises. He must have walked a lot before finding me with difficulty. More than a hundred years have passed, and human society has undergone earth-shaking changes. Language, writing, transportation, and communication methods have all changed. He must have never thought that he would appear in front of me in such a state of embarrassment.
Wu Julan is not a mermaid who has never been in contact with human society and does not understand the ways of the world. He must understand that it is almost impossible for me to fall in love with him who is so down and out, but the "impossible possibility" happened
I crossed my arms and placed them on my chest.
It is hard to imagine that there is something belonging to Wu Julan in this body.
Back then, Grandpa Gaozu helped Wu Julan, and Wu Julan should have generously promised to fulfill one of Grandpa Gaozu's wishes. For the fishermen at sea, the most fearful thing is drowning in the sea. Wu Julan used the spirit beads that can "return the dead" as a reward, so that Grandpa Gao no longer fears going into the sea. But my great-grandfather and great-grandfather, who had been fishermen all my life, didn't use it, nor did my grandfather, but I accidentally drowned when I was seven years old.
It turned out that the nightmares I often had were real, and I had really died, but my grandfather saved me with the spirit beads presented by Wu Julan.
It turned out that in the vast crowd, Wu Julan and I met for no reason. He came here on purpose to get back his Soul Orb.
It's no wonder that when I first saw him, I was always frightened by his eyes. It wasn't because I was too timid, but because of my animal instinct, I felt his killing intent towards me.
With his proud and indifferent personality, I think he would be very depressed and impatient when he thinks about trying to make me fall in love with him willingly. He must want to slap me with his palm and take back what belongs to him. Anyway, it is my great-grandfather who has been kind to him, and he has already repaid him with practical actions of "lending the Lingzhu for more than a hundred years".
Unfortunately, things exceeded his expectations, he passed out at my feet, and I had "a drop of water" to him, and he could only struggle between "kill me with one palm" or "let me return it willingly"
I couldn't help but smiled slightly, it's so damned that he wanted something from me, and I could enjoy the temptation and pursuit of a beautiful man, but he completely ignored the rules and abruptly turned everything into what I wanted. Ways to please him, pursue him
I fell in love with him willingly, not only did he not open his arms to warmly welcome him, but he also pushed me coldly away again and again, which is disgusting
Gradually, all the panic and anger that I had just discovered calmed down, leaving only endless sadness lingering in my heart, and with every beat of the heart, there was a sharp pain.
I smiled at the blue lake, and said softly: "I should have punished him for cheating, playing with disappearance, and made him worry, but I can't bear to make him worry."
No matter why he is good to me, I love him but it is an unchangeable fact. I can be unaware of his will, but I can't be unaware of my own.
I turned around, walked in the direction of the apartment, and walked back firmly.
When passing a secluded tree-lined path, a call suddenly came: "Shen Luo"
I stopped, turned around, and saw Let.
Let quickly walked up to me, stared at me with piercing eyes, and asked earnestly, "Have you thought it through?"
It's not that I don't understand her mood, but it still makes me feel very uncomfortable. I said coldly: "Think about it carefully, it's all between me and Wu Julan, don't worry about it"
I turned around and was about to leave, but suddenly felt a pinprick-like pain in the back of my neck.
I turned around and looked at Let in shock.
Holding an empty syringe, she murmured, "I'm sorry"
I opened my mouth, but no sound came out, and the whole world turned into a shaking phantom. My body was weak, my steps were staggering, trying to catch something, but I only saw Let's figure becoming more and more blurred, and finally turned into pitch black.
