[System] Where is my vest?

"This is Xia Yan."

The utensil in Jiang Lan's hand fell to the ground with a clang. After a while, he said, "What did you say? I couldn't hear you clearly because of the strong sea breeze."

"I said—" Shen Zhuo held the frantically struggling puffer fish in his hand, and said, "This fish is Xia Yan."

Jiang Lan said with a look of disgust: "This puffer fish is so stupid, how could it be Xia Yan."

"You think he's stupid because the soul of the fish was still there before." Shen Zhuo pondered, "Xia Yan told me that he couldn't control this body all the time before."

Xia Yan, who had turned into a pufferfish and revealed his identity, gave up struggling and pretended to be a dead fish.

Noticing the word "before", Jiang Lan frowned: "Is this considered a loss?"

Seizing the house is directly destroying the original owner of the physical body and occupying the magpie's nest. No matter how you say it, it is also in the category of harming the heavens and the law. Once you do it, you must be prepared to pay the price. doubled its power.

"It doesn't count." Shen Zhuo shook Xia Yan with his arms in his arms: "Because the original soul of this fish was scared to death by you, he can at most be reincarnated from the corpse."

Jiang Lan pointed at herself with an innocent expression: "Huh? Me?"

He looked at the sky and recalled what he did after he picked up the puffer fish, and suddenly realized: "It must be the time I threw him on the chopping board to kill him."

"..." Shen Zhuo looked at Xia Yan and asked with his eyes: How did you survive?

Xia Yan continued to play dead.

"So, did you expose his identity because of Shanhejuan? Did he tell you what he saw in Shanhejuan?" Even though he knew the way to communicate with spirit consciousness, Jiang Lan didn't use it at all. on the meaning.

"He can't tell."

Jiang Lan had a bad feeling when she heard this.

"In the past, no one could tell what he had experienced in the secret realm of mountains and rivers, even Xia Yan, who was recognized as the master." Shen Zhuo explained: "But his situation is not optimistic. He has been in an incompatible body for a long time. It will have an impact on his spirit."

"Then take him back quickly." Jiang Lan waved her hand, as if to leave quickly.

Shen Zhuo's voice was astringent: "...I don't know the way."

Jiang Lan fell silent against Shen Zhuo's calm gaze, he didn't know the way either.

"Then, where is his body?" Jiang Lan looked at Shen Zhuo expectantly, how could Shen Zhuo be Xia Yan's master, maybe...

"In Xuanwu City." Shen Zhuo paused, and added: "Put it with your body."

Jiang Lan thought about the scene, "Who did it?!"

Shen Zhuo replied: "Ji Miyue strongly requested it. Although Yuan'er did not agree, Ji Miyue said that you used to be called husband and wife. You are husband Xia Yan and wife, and you have to be responsible to Xia Yan."

Now that Shen Zhuo knew about this, let alone other people in Xuanwu City, Jiang Lan grabbed the ground with her head in her heart, regretting it, he shouldn't have helped Ji Yunyue get rid of the obstacle, that woman really knew Too much!

Jiang Lan pulled out a stiff smile: "In Xuanwu City, heh, it's easy to handle in Xuanwu City. I can let the system send Xia Yan's body over."

"You have a teleportation array?" Shen Zhuo said with hope, "Then..."

"You can only transfer dead objects, not living objects."

"Forget it then." Shen Zhuo sighed, "Although the body of this fish is not suitable for the soul, it adapts to the environment. Considering our current situation, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages."

Jiang Lan: "...then I'll leave it to you."

Xia Yan rolled his eyes with his beady eyes: So Master, why did you reveal my identity, why? !

Seeing that Jiang Lan was about to leave, Shen Zhuo, who had received Xia Yan's spiritual sense, felt that he could still be rescued. He cleared his throat: "Actually, there is nothing we can do about Shanhejuan."

Jiang Lan paused and made a nasal sound: "Huh?"

"Some intimate contracts can share memories...maybe." Shen Zhuo said this method almost against his conscience.

Jiang Lan raised her eyebrows slightly: "For example?"

"Hmm..." Shen Zhuo looked at the sand obliquely in front of him: "...the contract of a Taoist companion."

Jiang Lan thought for a while and asked, "Can it be lifted?"

"...Yes." The premise is that both parties are voluntary. For this reason, some Taoist couples will not sign this contract.

"let me consider it."

Shen Zhuo with a disturbed conscience just wanted to leave quickly, but Jiang Lan stopped him: "Wait, keep him."

"Oh." Shen Zhuo thoughtfully put Xia Yan back into the fish tank, and then put the fish and the tank on the ground in front of Jiang Lan.

After Shen Zhuo left, Jiang Lan sat cross-legged in front of the fish tank, leaning her head and staring at Xia Yan sternly.

"Actually, you can sign an incomplete contract, and in our current situation, we don't use our own bodies, and there is no way to sign a complete contract." In the end, it was Xia Yan who took the initiative to release his consciousness.

"!!!" Jiang Lan was startled, and moved her hands and feet back in unison.

Seeing that Jiang Lan was so frightened, Xia Yan was silent for a while and said: "It is not only the contract of the Taoist couple who can read the memory, but also the contract of the master and the servant. A servant has no secrets in front of the master."

It has to be said that Xia Yan's concession really poked Jiang Lan's heart. Jiang Lan suddenly felt that he was making trouble for no reason. He sighed. Under the current situation, Xia Yan was willing to make such a sacrifice, but he himself Such pettiness... my conscience is so disturbed.

"The Taoist couple's contract is—"

"City Lord Yin." Shen Zhuo left and returned.

Jiang Lan quickly stood up: "What's wrong?"

"Over there." Shen Zhuo pointed in one direction, "The two mermaids started arguing, but I couldn't understand what they were saying."

"I'm going right away!" Jiang Lan ran away, looking like there was some kind of scourge behind her.

Xia Yansheng, who was left in place, had nothing to love: "Master, is this helping me, or making it more difficult for me?"

"Hey, the situation is compelling, we must put the overall situation first."

It is obviously wise for Shen Zhuo to let Jiang Lan understand the content of the quarrel between Xiao San and Fei Se.

"Why can't you choose me?" Concerned about the presence of outsiders on Sea God Island, Fei Se spoke in Yuren language: "Obviously this is not the only way to go!"

Jiang Lan hid in the dark and raised her ear fins.

"Why did you let the black flood dragon steal a god's eye when you were a member of the temple!" Fei Se said loudly, "That's because they want to see if they can bring the catastrophe of the mermaids to the mainland!"

"This way, this way, the merman can survive the catastrophe, and you don't have to sacrifice, Your Highness, how great!" Fei Se grabbed Xiao San's arm, bent her waist and lowered her head, hysterical.

"Fei Se, you know, that will only cause more deaths, whether it's the sharks or the creatures on the mainland over there." Xiaosan held up Fei Se's face and said seriously: "Fei Se, this is me The decision I made was not because of the oppression and frame-up of the high priest, nor was it because of the will of the gods, it was just my own decision, and I wanted to do it."

Fei Se hugged Xiaosan and cried loudly.

……

"What did they say?" Shen Zhuo asked.

Jiang Lan said briefly, looked at the silent Shen Zhuo, and suddenly said: "I will ask Xiao San to send you back to the mainland."

Xia Yan: "I won't leave!"

Ignoring Xia Yan's protest, Shen Zhuo had some doubts: "Will that mermaid agree?"

"He will." Jiang Lan said: "But before you leave, I will first take a look at what Xia Yan saw in the scroll of mountains and rivers."

After finishing speaking, Jiang Lan snatched the fish tank from Shen Zhuo's hand, walked into the Sea God Temple, and shut Shen Zhuo out.

"I can see your memory, so you should be able to see mine too?" Jiang Lan scratched her hair irritably.

"If you don't want to, I don't have to watch it."

It was obviously a generous word, but Jiang Lan could hear the grievance in it. He gritted his teeth and said, "Yes! Why don't I! Did I do anything that would be shameful to others!"

Jiang Lan grasped Xia Yan with both hands as if she was dying, and pressed against his forehead.

After a while nothing happened.

Xia Yan lowered her voice and coaxed: "Master, you are too nervous, relax a bit."

"Shut up!" As soon as she thought that she would unreservedly show her memory in front of the other party, Jiang Lan's mentality collapsed: "If you read something you shouldn't, I will kill you in minutes!"

"Okay, okay." Xia Yan was a little ashamed. He didn't expect Jiang Lan's reaction to be so strong. He thought that if Jiang Lan was in the form of a mermaid at the moment, the scales on the fish's tail would have exploded.

Jiang Lan took a deep breath, finally overcame the sense of shame in her heart, and exchanged consciousness with Xia Yan.

"Plop!" Jiang Lan fell into the water and broke out again. He wiped off the water on his face and transformed into a mermaid. "Is exchanging memories so real?"

"Boom—"

Jiang Lan turned around, and what unfolded in front of his eyes was a piece of hell.

Dead bodies are strewn across the sea, including sharks and sea beasts.

The boiling sea water evaporated a bloody mist.

what happened?Jiang Lan plunged headfirst into the sea, as if diving deep, his eyes reflected a red color.

Before Jiang Lan could think deeply, she felt a huge pulling force.

"Master, master... Jiang Lan!"

Jiang Lan opened his eyes abruptly, and he saw Xia Yan in human form, still naked.But he couldn't care less about it anymore, and rushed forward, "I saw it, I saw it, the destruction of the mermaids!"

Xia Yan was held down by Jiang Lan's shoulders and fell down.

Jiang Lan: "???"

Xia Yan said slowly, "Why are you still wearing clothes?"

Jiang Lan blinked, and said indifferently: "It's strange that you don't have any clothes on. What is this place? Your memory?"

"This is the place where the original heart is reflected." Although Xia Yan saw this place for the first time, he naturally knew where it was.

Everything here can be said to be a reflection of thinking. Taking Jiang Lan's clothes as an example, this is a style of clothes that Xia Yan has never seen in this world. The hem of the clothes is short and the sleeves are also short.But for Xia Yan who had skimmed through Jiang Lan's memory, there was nothing new about it.What he cared about was that Jiang Lan was wearing clothes, which meant that he was unwilling to be honest with Jiang Lan.Jiang Lan is still wary of Xia Yan.

"You didn't read my memory." Xia Yan's face was brightly disappointed: "The picture in the landscape scroll you saw before."

A scroll of pictures suddenly appeared in Xia Yan's hand, and he handed it to Jiang Lan: "Here, I don't know if this broken thing can still be used."

Jiang Lan was a little strange. He took the scroll of mountains and rivers and opened it to see that the ink on the painting had faded so much that it almost turned into a blank sheet of paper.

Xia Yan said: "At that time, I struggled too hard, and Shanhejuan fell into the sea on the way, and I also fell into the body of that chubby fish. Shanhejuan also became like this."

Jiang Lan let out a "huh".

Jiang Lan's bland reaction made Xia Yan a little flustered: "Then do you want to read my memory? I read yours, and you can read it back too."

"..." Since he was wearing modern straight-leg trousers, Jiang Lan put his hands in his pockets very naturally. He stared at Xia Yan, knowing that the smile on Xia Yan's face could hardly be maintained, so he said: "In In the world before me, people paid great attention to personal privacy, not only protecting their own, but also respecting others."

"Let's go, let's go out from here." Jiang Lan turned around, thinking in her heart, since she has entered the mountains and rivers, then the couple's contract should not be completed... Maybe.
