no puppet

Chapter 189 Trading

However, after the long death-like silence, the wind whistled continuously in the ears, but no one gave even a half-sentence answer.

Xie Hengyan froze on the spot, she had already made perfect psychological preparations, but collapsed at that moment, and seemed to be a little at a loss again.

"Could it be that I...have found the wrong one?" Xie Hengyan asked herself, "It doesn't make sense, Xie Cong can never lie to me."

"Then...Even if Xie Cong is lying to me, it is true that Fang Yan intends to come back to life, isn't that note about planting gardenias hinting at me?"

Xie Hengyan walked to the edge of the tent, raised her voice, and subconsciously called out: "You can't be wrong. You must be here, I know it all, you want to leave the island... you need me to take you out, right?"

For a long time, there was still no answer.

Xie Hengyan said again: "If you can't save Yin Chu, then we all don't leave, we will be on this island from now on, no one can survive."

"Who's inside?" Una's familiar voice suddenly sounded from outside the curtain.

Xie Hengyan suddenly shut up, and then saw the curtain was lifted, Wu Na strode into the tent, caught a glimpse of Xie Hengyan in the corner, and suddenly asked in surprise: "Why are you here?"

As he spoke, he shook the water droplets all over his body, put away the paper umbrella by the way, then walked to Xie Hengyan's side, and said with a surprised face: "It's raining so heavily outside, how did you get out of the house like a cripple?"

Xie Hengyan: "Well, I..."

"Wait..." Una turned around and said, "I'm going to call Brother Yin."

"Don't!" Xie Hengyan opened his throat and shouted loudly, "Don't call Yin Pou!"

This time, the sound was so loud that it was ear-piercing. Wu Nian on the haystack was awakened instantly, and started to howl with a "wow".And Wuna was also frightened for a moment, and it took a long time to react, and hurriedly hugged her daughter and coaxed softly: "Good boy, don't cry, don't cry, Daddy is here, don't be afraid..."

Wu Nian: "Wow... woo wa... woo!"

"Okay, okay, it's okay, Nian'er don't cry!" Una coaxed, and said to Xie Hengyan, "What are you talking about, what are you doing here? The child was woken up, it's just..."

Halfway through the talk, when she turned to look at him again, she also had an aggrieved expression on her face, with red eye circles, as if someone had bullied him.

Una glanced at it at first, gasped, and quickly waved at the puppet again: "You...you don't, this set is useless to me!"

Xie Hengyan didn't speak, and his thin lips were pursed slightly, and no one knew what he was thinking.

It was also the first time for Una to see such a battle. Thinking about it, this monster is no different from an ordinary beast. If someone accidentally offends them, none of them will have a good time——After thinking about it, Una turned his head From the food box I brought back, I took out a piece of half-cooked and half-cooked biscuit, tore open half, handed it to Xie Hengyan, and coaxed him like a puppy: "Here, do you want to eat?"

Xie Hengyan was slightly taken aback, then took the cake, held it in his palm, looked at it carefully for a while, then stuffed it into his mouth, and ate it slowly.

Una finally let out a sigh of old-fashionedness, and thought in his heart, it is really not easy for Yin Chun, even if he raises a watchdog, but he is born with a moody little demon, how can ordinary people dare to provoke him like this? Fierce daughter-in-law?I am afraid that Yin Chun is the only person in the world who has the courage to spend the rest of his life with this monster...

"What are you doing here?" Una couldn't help asking, "Isn't it just to eat this cake!"

"..."

Xie Hengyan's mouth was covered with crumbs, and he gnawed, eating without any sense of beauty.

"I'm here... to see the child." After a while, he replied.

"Just watching the children?" Una's eyes were full of guard.

Xie Hengyan: "Yes."

But Una shook his head and said: "After you finish eating, go back quickly, don't let Brother Yin see you, you will definitely be shamed on the spot again."

As he spoke, he turned around and helped his daughter tidy up the clothes, clothes, diapers and other miscellaneous things. At the end, he didn't forget to grab the broom and rag, and walked around the whole tent, cleaning and cleaning, as if he was a father and a mother at the same time. Damn it looks like you're working hard.

But Xie Hengyan did not rush to leave after eating the cake, but sat silently by the side, observing Wuna's every move.Staring at him changing the diaper for his daughter, and then going to the table to bring fresh goat milk, ready to be warmed before feeding her—the man in front of him looked very rough, and his temper was not usually violent, so he was only treating When he was a child, he rarely showed his most gentle and considerate side, and most of the time, he was often so stupid that it made people laugh.

Xie Hengyan unconsciously stared at him for a long, long time, until the inside of the tent had been cleaned and Wuna was free, Xie Hengyan then called him out, "That...Brother Wu."

"What are you doing?" Una didn't look back, "I'm busy, didn't I tell you to leave after eating?"

Xie Hengyan: "I want to ask you a question."

Una: "Speak if you have something to say, and fart if you have something to say."

"Before autumn this year, when the big ship is fully built, we will take Wu Nian to sea." Xie Hengyan said, "Brother Wu and Sister Tangshui will also...leave this island together?"

As soon as these words came out, Una was indeed a little stunned, as if he didn't expect him to ask such a question.After staying for a while, he said with uncertainty: "I have discussed this issue with Sister Lian. Although she has not given a definite answer, I know in my heart that she will definitely leave...No one can Can stay."

Xie Hengyan said again: "What about you? Are you going or not?"

Una turned his eyes slightly, with a little confusion in his eyes.Xie Hengyan can probably also understand that for Una, it is not up to him to decide whether to go or stay.

But if he stays here, it means that his wife and children will be separated, and Wu Nian will be separated from Rong Shilian by thousands of mountains and rivers.But if he chooses to leave, he also failed the old village chief Yang Deyi's expectations. After all, the Yesheng Seal does not belong to him after all, it is used to extend the longevity of the entire Yongcun.

"If possible, who wouldn't want to go far away with the person he loves the most, and escape from the long-term shackles brought by this sea?" Una said with a wry smile, "but I took the seal of the old village chief and used The life of the entire village is at stake, so it’s easier said than done now that we’re going to leave?”

Xie Hengyan stared blankly at him. After a while, he said slowly, "Then if...you leave here, is there a chance to come back? After all, you still have a long future, no matter where you go, there will be infinite possibilities."

Una still smiled and said, "The Mu family and his wife also planned that way...No one knows whether they are dead or alive."

Xie Hengyan stopped talking. At that time, there was a continuous sound of rain outside. He had just finished eating half a cookie when Una poured him fresh tea and said, "I know, you follow Brother Yin...in fact, you Both are not easy. Anyway, no one can predict what will happen in the future, whether it is you or me, let’s all do it and cherish it..."

"Brother Wu." Xie Hengyan said, "I still have a question for you."

Una: "What?"

"How long does it take from when the villagers start to get gray hair, and then...they start to get sick and die suddenly?" Xie Hengyan asked in a stagnant voice.

Una immediately turned his head and asked, "What? Did you start too, or Brother Yin..."

"No...no, I just...ask, ask." Xie Hengyan put on a hard face, and lied casually, "I'm also afraid that something will happen to Yin Chun, so I'll prepare myself in advance."

Una said: "I can't say for sure. Some people will be lucky, and it will be fine if they live for another year or two... You don't have to worry too much. After so many years, everyone has already opened up about life and death, and there is nothing to let go of." No less."

Xie Hengyan couldn't listen, so Gu Zi asked, "Then... what about the unlucky ones?"

Una paused, and after a long time, he replied: "The unlucky ones may not last a day, and they will be gone if they say nothing... There is no time to react."

Might not last a day.

If you say no, it will be gone.

Just because of such a sentence, Xie Hengyan's whole body was lost, and he was a little confused. He didn't know how he got home that afternoon.

I only remember that it rained a lot later, and when I moved all the way back to the wooden house, my whole body was completely wet, and even my hair was dripping.

Yin Chun frowned and asked him, "Where did you go again?"

Xie Hengyan looked at him intently, and after a long while, he replied, "I don't know."

"Xie Hengyan." Yin Chun's tone became severe, "Didn't it be good to stay at home? Can you listen to people!"

"I..." Xie Hengyan choked up slightly.

Yin Chun: "What are you?"

"You...you can scold me a few more words." Xie Hengyan suddenly burst into tears, and plunged into his arms, rubbing back and forth like a mad dog, "I want to hear it."

"..." Yin Chun was so choked that his scalp went numb, "Why are you crazy? Who has upset you again?"

Xie Hengyan didn't say much, just circled him with two small claws, babbling, squeaking, and didn't know which language he was speaking. In the end, Yin Zhen had no choice but to reach out and hug him back, sighing. He said in a low voice: "Xie Hengyan, I didn't give you your life, but I don't want to see you tormenting yourself like this. You are already sick, your legs are lame, and you have a low-grade fever. Even if you are a puppet... you must take care of your body anyway. .”

Xie Hengyan was glued to Yin Chun's body like an octopus: "Woooooooooooo..."

"Come down." Yin Chu ordered, "Change into clothes, and then eat."

Xie Hengyan: "Woooooo..."

Yin Chun: "Okay, don't act like a baby to me. Acting like a baby is useless, don't rub it, tsk..."

Xie Hengyan: "Woooo..."

After all, what should we do now?

Once Yin Chu's lifespan is affected by the time compression, if he dies because of this before leaving the island... all the previous efforts will be considered in vain, and there is even no meaning at all.

That night, Xie Hengyan tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, but when she turned her back, she could see Yin Chu's sleeping face when she raised her eyes. It was obvious that she was exhausted during the day, and she worked and worried about the shipbuilding day and night, almost every day. I can fall asleep when I get home.

Xie Hengyan propped up one arm, and in the darkness, stared at Yin Chun's sharp-edged facial features, which were not there 20 years ago, and gradually became sharper, but tainted with the taste of vicissitudes and fatigue.

Now that time has passed and everything has changed, Xie Hengyan stared at him, and after a long time in the past, Fang asked himself and said, "Could it be that I can't protect you too?"

As he said, he lowered his head, opened his lapel, and looked at the almost shattered demon seal on his chest many times. He seemed to want to dismantle it several times, and even slowly touched it along the edge of his heart. Yin Chun rubbed and gestured clumsily on the top of his head, after doing this several times, he suddenly seemed to be discouraged, and put his hands down silently.

If it is necessary to dismantle the puppet's Karma Seal and transfer it to Yin Chun, it is not impossible... But on this island, who can start to implement this matter, except him and Yin Chun, who else can do it? Risk it?

"Could it be...you want me to find Sister Tangshui?" Xie Hengyan asked almost anxiously, "But will she be willing to help?"

But now, he can't think about it anymore.Yin Chun would die at any time, even in his sleep, he might stop breathing. Just thinking of this, Xie Hengyan couldn't fall asleep at all.

The only thought at the moment is that Yin Chu cannot be allowed to die, absolutely not.

It was close to the third watch in the morning, Xie Hengyan took advantage of Yin Chun's deep sleep, and got out of bed alone. He was so anxious that he didn't even put on his shoes, so he put on a robe, pulled two wooden crutches, and staggered slowly towards the back door. out.

He was going to find Rong Shilian.No matter what, the matter of transferring Ye Sheng Yin should not be known to Yin Zhen himself, just like how he treated Una back then, everything was carried out under the condition of concealing Yin Zhen...

Even if you do so, it may attract Yin Zhu's wrath.Xie Hengyan thought that from the moment he got the Yesheng Seal, Yin Zhen himself would know how to weigh the pros and cons.

"Only sister Tangshui can help."

Xie Hengyan limped through the bushes and walked to the gravel path outside the circular village.He walked in a hurry, but not fast. Perhaps his lameness accounted for a large part of the reason, so when he stepped on the stone pit by the side of the road, his body was completely out of control, and he fell down almost unexpectedly. On the mud floor, he rolled several times in a row, and finally trembled crookedly to the side of the pool, almost falling headfirst into it.

At this time, a hand suddenly stretched out from behind, firmly grabbed the back of his neck, pulled him back from the edge of the pool, and helped him stand firmly again.

Xie Hengyan trembled all over, and subconsciously shouted: "Yin Chun...don't pull me like this, my neck hurts!"

And when he lowered his head again and looked at the reflection in the water, he unexpectedly found that the figure behind him was weak, thin and thin, with a hunched waist, which was obviously quite different from Yin Zhu's stature.

"Wait..." Xie Hengyan came to his senses, and said in horror, "It's not Yinzhu!"

When he concentrated his eyes, he looked closely at the two blue-gray male figures in the water, one in front and one behind, with facial features, brows and eyes clearly visible, which was exactly the same as Xie Hengyan's appearance!

"You..." Xie Hengyan turned her head suddenly, and blurted out, "Who are you?"

However, at this moment, there was no one behind him, it was dark and misty, and the sea breeze on the unique island was blowing the branches and leaves, and they were constantly rustling with each other.

Behind him, is empty.

But the reflections of the two of them in the water were true, and the subtle pain lying between his neck spread around his spine almost all the time.

Xie Hengyan felt cold all over, and even lowered her eyes uncontrollably, looking into the center of the pool where the microwaves were rising in front of her, the blue-gray figure of that person was extremely similar to him.

With the same facial features, the same clothes, and the same expression, across a layer of water at that time, it was as if they were silently looking at Xie Hengyan.

Suddenly, Xie Hengyan remembered something and asked him, "You... are you Xie Cong?"

That's not right, how could Xie Cong appear here, he should have come long ago, and he wouldn't wait until now.

"Could it be that you can't make it?" Xie Hengyan said in horror, "No...Fang, Fang Yan! It's Fang Yan, right?"

In the dark night, no one gave him a half-word answer.

Xie Hengyan bent down with great effort, forcing herself to squat down to the edge of the water, staring at the figure of the extra man.

Just like talking to the air this morning, Xie Hengyan said to the figure of the man: "You can't fool me, even Xie Cong can't kill Yinzhu, no one can take him away from me Walk."

"Xie Cong said that the person who brought me to Tongjing Island was Fang Yan." Xie Hengyan said, "If you are Fang Yan, you must help me...help you get out of here and find the place with your body. The seal of karma...you long for resurrection, isn't that the case?"

The surface of the water was still calm, and the man in the water also smiled but did not answer, hesitantly stood behind Xie Hengyan, like a hallucination that appeared out of thin air, just an empty and nonsensical nightmare, without any special meaning.

Xie Hengyan squatted by the water, waiting in silence for a while, until he confirmed that the other party would not respond, he finally stood up straight on the ground, and then re-supported two wooden crutches, turned his head towards the depths of the woods, and continued Go forward stubbornly.

"Are you sure that you want to give this hard-won demon seal to an...ordinary mortal who may leave you, betray you, and abandon you at any time?"

All of a sudden, from behind his ear, a vague and turbid hoarse voice, difficult to distinguish between male and female, came through.

Xie Hengyan was startled, and when she turned her head again, the figure in the water was gone, leaving him alone, his lonely and broken reflection, stuck deep in the middle of the chaotic water surface, unable to extricate himself for a long time.

"That's Xie Cong... It's a precious thing that Xie Cong paid all the price to get back." The voice came from far away from all directions, with an indescribably weird feeling, but it was completely clear and piercing.He once again asked Xie Hengyan, questioning and conjecture full of hesitation: "Are you going to ruin a complete life of unlimited freedom between you and Xie Cong in order to keep a stupid promise that has been buried for decades?"

"Is it your father who is important, or the abandoned baby you raised back then?"

"What are you talking about?" Xie Hengyan turned around angrily, raised her voice to refute him, "They are very important to me! Even if I die for them, I am willing!"

"I didn't ask you to die."

A pair of pale hands stretched out in the darkness, and suddenly squeezed Xie Hengyan's chin hard.

Xie Hengyan: "..."

"Puppet, it's better like this." The voice said with a faint smile, "Let's make a... fair deal for both parties."

"Deal...?" Xie Hengyan's almond-shaped eyes widened, and he said in a daze, "W-what deal?"

"Xie Hengyan."

"Xie Hengyan..."

"Wake up, Xie Hengyan!" Yin Zhen's voice sounded like thunder, "It's noon, get up and eat!"

"Wow ah ah ah ah ah..."

Xie Hengyan threw off the quilt abruptly, sat up straight from the bed, and the piercing sunlight quickly blinded him completely.

It wasn't until he was half asleep and half awake that he smelled a familiar smell of porridge, and then he came back to his senses, twisted his neck and looked around, and found that at this moment, he was already in the small wooden house where he used to live.

Xia Tian patted the bed through the window lattice, there was a faint smell of paste in the porridge, and the back of the toiled back who was busy worrying about him like a woman pouring water in front of the bed.

"What are you shouting about?" Yin Chun frowned, "Come here and wash up, I'll comb your hair...you don't even eat breakfast, do you want to become a fairy?"

"Yin, Yin pour!" Xie Hengyan called out tremblingly.

"doing what?"

Yin Chun walked over helplessly, before he had time to say anything, Xie Hengyan had already scrambled over and hugged him fiercely.

"It's great that you're still alive!" Xie Hengyan said tearfully.

Yin Chu: "..."

Xie Hengyan buried her head on his chest, she looked pitiful, like a puppy afraid of being abandoned by its owner.

"Why, have a nightmare again?" Yin Zhu was very gentle, stroked Xie Xiaogou's hair, and said, "I woke up in the middle of the night last night, and I heard you talking in my sleep."

Xie Hengyan muffled: "Really? I... What did I say?"

Yin Chun said: "Gurgling, I can't hear clearly... What did you dream about?"

"Huh? No..."

From an angle that Yin Chun couldn't see, Xie Hengyan opened his eyes, and said very flatly: "It's nothing, I... I dreamed that I went to play in the water, and I almost fell, thinking about it now... It's still scary. "

"Is it better now?" Yin Chun patted his back and asked softly.

"Okay, I'm fine." Xie Hengyan let go of him, forced a smile and said, "In this world, there are things more terrifying than falling into the water... It's just a dream, it's all fake, don't worry too much about it."

Yin Chun was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "For you, what could be more terrifying than falling into the water?"

"Of course there is."

Xie Hengyan didn't pick up his words, but shifted his gaze to the table, pouring out the pot of hot porridge that was now cooking.

"Let's have breakfast." Xie Hengyan said, "I'm also a little hungry, and I'm growling..."

Yin Chun also let go of the puppet, and turned to get the bowls and chopsticks next to the cabinet: "Of course you are hungry, it's time for lunch... Do you know how long you have slept? I was almost scared to death."

Xie Hengyan was still in a daze, and when he was about to turn over and get out of bed, the heavy bedding around his waist slipped off layer by layer, revealing several obvious and sharp scratches between his knees and calves.

It was the scar from falling by the pool last night.
