Chapter 42 There is a God in the Mountain
As his eyes flashed, he suddenly grabbed his ankle and dragged him into the lake.
There was a crash and the lake water splashed in all directions.
Bailian sank into the lake uncontrollably, but he didn't panic much. He didn't need to breathe anyway, as long as he couldn't drown.
The mermaid is not evil and has no intention of drowning him. She might as well just be joking.
She put her hands around his waist, gently supporting his body, and swaying gently to prevent him from sinking.
Bailian didn't know where to put his hands. The other person's body was very soft, and it felt like no matter how he placed it, he simply opened his arms and looked stiff as if he was hugging him.
The mermaid smiled, her smile was pure and beautiful. She squinted her eyes and looked at Balian and exhaled softly: "Little boy, why is your body colder than the lake water? Is it cold?"
Bailian smiled bitterly and said: "Perhaps I will never be able to feel the feeling of cold in this life?"
"It's so pitiful."
The mermaid looked pitifully, and then said: "Do you know? Why do the creatures in this mountain not like humans, but like to be close to you and that little deer?"
Bailian thought for a while and answered seriously. Said: "Because Xiaolu'er and I are not human beings."
The mermaid was slightly startled, beautiful and clear. The faint light of the lake reflected under her eyes, and then she smiled and said: "But it's not just that, you have a special smell. Although you can't feel the breath of life here, you can feel the beauty and brevity of life. A very pitiable young man.”
The slightly explicit words made Balian a little embarrassed.
The mermaid chuckled and said: "My name is Lin Yuan, what is your name, young man."
Bailian said: "Si Chen."
Lin Yuan squinted and smiled: "Si Chen, I remember this name. By the way, you look like you are not very good at swimming. Do you want me to teach you how to swim? Huh?”
After saying that, before Bailian could answer whether she was willing or not, she hugged him tightly, her beautiful fish tail swayed out of the water, and she flexibly dived into the lake with him in her arms, swimming happily.
……
……
Lin Guiyuan's clothes were soaked, and he walked step by step in the dark wetland.
The golden robe was dripping with water, and his hair was wet. He stopped somewhere and looked at the old man in front of him in silence.
The old man is on a huge tree.
In other words, he is the huge tree.
Because at this moment, his upper body is in human form, but his lower body has turned into wood and merged with the huge tree under him.
Although he is the mountain god here, at the same time, he is also imprisoned in this mountain.
Although he has eternal life, he has also lost his eternal freedom.
"Yuan'er, you shouldn't have brought those people in today."
The old man's voice was old but still powerful, giving people a feeling of strong power.
Lin Guiyuan slowly knelt down and kowtowed deeply to the old man. His white forehead was stained with black soil, and he looked a little embarrassed.
"Father Shan, I broke the rules, please punish me."
The old man chuckled, his eyes filled with the kindness and kindness of an elder: "You kid, you've been here since you've made a mistake since you were a kid. Zhao, you know I won’t punish you.”
Lin Gui. Yuan smiled and said: "Father Shan, today's situation is too special. Shebi's corpse woke up from death and hunted down the local mortals. I took them to escape and had no choice but to go into the mountain."
"Special..." The old man's eyes suddenly became distant and complicated.
He murmured: "Yes, today is special... Guiyuan, there are practitioners outside the mountain gate who have discovered traces of the formation. Can you go and collect the formation and let them in?"
Lin Guiyuan's body was shaken, he raised his head and said in confusion: "Father Shan, the mountain guarding formation is guarding you and this living creature, how can you take it away at will?"
The old man sighed softly: "I was killed by the emperor. I have been thinking about this for ten thousand years, and I have been thinking about it for ten thousand years. , I have guarded this mountain for ten thousand years, and I still don’t know what crime I have committed. I have been sent away from my homeland for ten thousand years and there is still no day to return. I think... maybe that day will never come. "" Mountain Father. ..." Lin Guiyuan murmured.
……
……
In the lake, Baili Ansheng was dragged from one end to the other by Mermaid Linyuan.
It may have been a long time since I saw outsiders, but Lin Yuan and the other mermaids in the lake were very enthusiastic.
Even the deer wandering on the shore was pulled into the water by them.
The little deer didn’t understand the nature of water, so it screamed twice and found that under the gentle support of several mermaids, it did not sink into the water, nor did it choke on the lake water.
Feeling their warm kindness, I am no longer afraid.
Playfully, he kicked his little hooves and paddled through the water.
“Sister Linyuan, why is your tail different in color from the tails of other mermaids?”
Linyuan seemed to be tired from playing, and sat on the bank of the lake with Bai Lian, With the waist as the boundary, the beautiful fish tail on the lower body gently paddles on the lake surface, creating ripples of water.
She took out a shell from her hand at some point and lowered her head to count the huge pearls inside the shell.
The pearl is round and exudes a faint brilliance in the night. It is obviously an extremely precious luminous pearl.
There are many mermaids in the lake, but most of them have red tails like koi fish, and some have light purple tails.
Only Lin Yuan, her tail is as blue as the dreamy sea, and even her scales are as blue as water, very tempting.
The slender fingertips that were picking up the pearls paused slightly.
She lowered her head, her beautiful eyes rippled with the swell of the lake.
She smiled slightly, picked out the largest luminous pearl and handed it to Balian, and said with a smile: "Nothing in the world is absolutely the same, especially beautiful things, right?"
< br>
Seeing the sadness under that smile, Balian didn't ask any more questions. He took the luminous pearl and said seriously: "Your tail is very beautiful."
Lin Yuan was slightly startled, his blue eyes filled with emotion. It creates a beautiful layer of watery light.
The rhythm of the aqua blue fish tail rippling on the lake surface is much more lively.
She smiled slightly and said: "You are the first person to say that."
Wow...
The sound of water rising from the lake surface did not come from the direction where the deer were playing, but from the center of the lake.
The wet golden robe clung to the man's tall body, and his black hair was dripping with water drops.
Lin Guiyuan walked up from the bottom of the lake step by step, stepping on the lake water, looking towards Bai Lian and Lin Yuan with a stunned expression.
This was the first time he saw a creature in the lake being so close to an outsider.
Especially Linyuan.
I haven't seen her smile like this for a long time.
Lin Guiyuan trotted up to the two of them and said, "Lin...Sister Linyuan, Shan...Father Shan said that...outsiders cannot be brought to this...lake." ”
Lin Yuan smiled nonchalantly, put his arm around Bailian's shoulders and said, "But he's not a human, and neither is that deer."
Lin Guiyuan was stunned, lowered his head and muttered softly for a while. , it seems that this is really the case.
"You went to see Father Shan?" Lin Yuan asked.
Lin Guiyuan nodded and said: "Father Shan... looked... strange today. He asked me... to open the barrier in the mountain... and said that someone in the outside world was being violated by... demonic spirits."
