Mirror: Twin Cities - Chapter 80

The human puppet master stopped, but didn’t turn his head, sneered: “You have the courage! Why do you believe it?”

“This.” Bai Ying lowered her eyes, and her hand suddenly flicked out of her sleeve.

A small object cut through the air and hit his shoulder. Su Mo subconsciously stretched out his hand to catch it, spread his palms, bowed his head, and suddenly his body shook imperceptibly, as if the small thing hit his heart, but he quickly squeezed the palm of his hand silently.

The little puppet’s expression was also a little stiff suddenly, looking down at the master’s hand, his mouth was tightly pressed.

Somo didn’t answer a word again, and turned back to the Ruyi Gambling Shop without looking back, with a faintly terrifying light on his face, with anger and murderousness, his slender and pale fingers clenched tightly and pierced the skin of his palm. —

In the dark night, there was a soft sound, as if something was shattered in an instant.

The fine powder spilled between the fingers of the puppet master, shining with a pearly gleam in the black and iron night.

Tianma’s transparent wings and pitch-black wings crossed in mid-air, and the wind howled.

The two parties who belonged to the underworld quickly passed by without greeting each other.

“A lot of bird spirits… Is there a disaster in Taoyuan County?” Seeing the gathered black wings passing by, Lan Xia, the leader of the team, muttered to herself, her expression tense, her fingers fastened Tianma’s rein, and she accelerated her speed.” No! Could something be wrong with the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess? Hong Yuan, we have to hurry up!”

However, when the Lan Wang turned his head, he saw the beautiful Chi Wangyou looking back at the direction the bird spirits were passing by, startled with a strange expression on his face.

“What’s the matter?” Lan Xia asked in surprise.

“Lan Xia…Did you see the wounded one among the bird spirits just now?” After watching the group of monsters whizzing and disappearing into the dark night, Hong Kite turned her head and whispered to her colleague while galloping. , “Very familiar…it should be something we have seen before. Did you recognize it?”

“I didn’t pay attention.” Lan Xia was anxious, because he had already seen the terrible scene after burning on the ground, “Who is it like?”

“White King.” Hong Yuan bit her lips tightly and spit out two words.

Lan Xia looked back in surprise and saw Chi Wang’s face, and knew that it was definitely not a joke: “White King? Are you talking about the predecessor Bai Wangliao, or the current prince Bai Wangying?”

Chi Wang lowered his head, with a thoughtful expression on his glamorous face: “All are like.”

“God…” The Blue King suddenly understood, and blurted out, “You mean, that monster is–!”

Hong Yuan didn’t speak, but just nodded slowly. At this moment, as if sensing something, the two of them quickly reined their horses and led a group of Underworld Warriors to the broken courtyard on the ground silently.

There, on a plaque full of chaotic arrows, there was a few big golden characters written: Ruyi Gambling Shop.

“It seems to be right here.” Feeling the breath of the crown prince, Lan Xia was anxious, too late to think about the topic before, and quickly jumped off his horse.

Walking away from the pure white woman’s side, she was immediately surrounded by the boundless night.

The puppet master silently led the doll through the ruins, passing through those dying broken walls, his pale face was reddened by the faint fire, and his empty eyes were similar to hatred and viciousness. His fierce expression flashed across his dark blue eyes like lightning.

The puppet originally followed the master with a click, but suddenly stopped, pulled the lead in Suma’s hand, raised his hand straight, and pointed to the road ahead and the Ruyi gambling house in the distance— —Go in the wrong direction.

However, the puppet master did not pay attention to the puppet at all. He walked in the ruins in a daze, and made Anuo staggered and flew out without stopping. Perhaps knowing that the master is in a terrible mood, the puppet, who has been disobedient, quickly followed up silently.

A half-fallen wooden fence stood in front of him.

However, such an impenetrable barrier made the young master of Shark stand in a daze, and his empty eyes passed through the fence in front of him, as if he had seen the far end of time and space.

The other side of time and space is still a wooden fence, as if a gate blocked in memory.

Behind the sturdy wooden cage is the face of a young child with horror. Hiding in a corner of the cage, with dark blue eyes looking at a group of merchant-like people outside, they desperately shrunk their bodies into a ball-as if this If you curl your body as hard as you can, you can become a tiny little bit, and disappear from the coppery and dirty space in front of you.

However, the stout hand from outside reached in, grabbed him effortlessly, took it out, and showed it to the merchants: “Look, it’s only forty years old! How young, I can earn you money for a long time in the future. “

“What’s on its back? Such a big birthmark?-Oh, is there still a tumor in its stomach?” A hand stretched out, tore its clothes, looked at it, frowned in disgust, “What about this kind of thing? Sell ​​it? It can only be used to produce pearls, and it is not cost-effective to teach it to weave silk.”

“Hey, don’t go, don’t go, the price is easy to negotiate-you look at its face again, it must be beautiful like you have never seen before!” The consignor was anxious, turned the child’s face hard, and yelled at the away merchants. .

How many years have passed since those days… eighty years? Ninety years?

In that dark corner of Yechengdong City, the wooden cage was his childhood home, so that for a long time, he believed that this stinking street with no sunlight all the year round was the whole world. This grew up in the eyes that were regarded as “things”, the initial fear and panic became numb after time and again, and the hatred and resistance grew day by day. It seems that poisonous vines are entangled and grow crazily, enveloping the child’s heart, twisting his bones, and densely shielding any ray of light above the head.

After experiencing the pain of breaking abdomen, the pain of dismantling bones and legs, he died alive. One day, he was bought in a human form, all kinds of poison, just to squeeze the last tear in the eyes of the children of the shark.

However, at that time, the years of burning of the fire of hatred had already scorched the heart and lungs, no matter how severely beaten and humiliated, no tears gushed out of the child’s yin eyes. That day, after the crazier torture passed, the children still bit their lips and refused to cry. In the dying breath, I heard the master discussing from the side: Why not just dig out the “Ning Bizhu” from this mackerel child who can’t produce beads and sell it for money, right?

At that moment, without thinking about it, he grabbed the silver shuttle used for weaving and pierced his eye, piercing his eyeball.

——Those Kongsang people, never want to get anything from him again. Never, never think about it!

In fact, before he became blind, his eyes had never seen light. There is total darkness in front of him, and a never-ending night.

Until later, he was taken in by the Blue King’s Mansion and sent to the top of the White Tower of Garan to execute the despicable conspiracy. He was finally free from the hands of the Blue King. However, he had already given the last thing left, and nothing was left. .

How can I forget everything? How could it be forgotten!

After so many years of insults and damages, so many people’s destruction and death, he carried such a sea of ​​blood and deep hatred, and went to gain strength desperately. Isn’t it possible to come back and not to avenge the people who should be condemned by the heavens, but to hold those stained The hands of the blood and tears of the sharks, fighting side by side with their brothers and sisters?

How can he do it? How can it be done!

The puppet master stood blankly among the ruins, facing the half-fallen wooden fence, slowly raised his hand, clenched it, and punched the wood in front of him—instantly, the fence was torn apart under the terrifying force.

However, Sumo’s hand did not stop, hitting the broken pieces of wood uninterrupted, punch after punch. Until the entire wooden fence is reduced to debris.

Among the wood chips flying in the sky, the puppet master suddenly pressed his **** hands against the scorched ground, and knelt down in the ruins tremblingly, seeming to be howling silently. But there are no more tears.

The powder of the pearl finally leaked out from the tightly held fingers little by little, and then dripping, was the red blood bead pouring out of the palm.

The night wind rolled over, smelly and damp—like the dark, coppery streets in the East City hundreds of years ago.

silence. In the silence, I suddenly heard a slight “click” approaching, and then something cold hugged his neck. The puppet Suno silently leaned his head on his master’s cheek, and hugged Somo’s neck in the dark eyes that changed the light of understanding and comfort for the first time.

The puppet master did not speak, but silently hugged his puppet.

At that moment, there was a rare understanding and consideration between the strange twin brothers who had been fighting each other, as if they were dependent on each other.

“Arnold…” For a long time, Sumo stood up holding the doll, and muttered weakly, “Do you…really like that monster?”

“Click”, the puppet did not speak, but just nodded slightly and grinned.

“Okay… as you wish.” Holding his only partner, the puppet master closed his eyes and smiled bitterly. “When things are settled for the Re-National Army tomorrow, we will go to her, okay?” paused Sumo, there was a blank light in his eyes again, and he murmured: “It’s a good match for companionship with monsters—actually, I think that Youhuang is very weird…you seem to be familiar with it, right?”

Arnold cracked his mouth silently, and seemed to hug his master happily, but a dark and unpredictable light flashed in his eyes.

The moment he stood up, both the puppet master and the puppet were startled.

She should have been alarmed by the sound of the wood cracking just now, the ghost woman had come to her side silently for unknown time, standing on a street corner ten feet away, quietly watching the doll stand up from the ground holding the doll
