Chapter 912 Chapter 19: Non-human, non-god existence
Everyone watched as the girl carried the wooden bucket to the lakeside and slowly sat down, then gently raised her hand to tie up her long silver hair.
"She is...a deity?"
"No, he looks like an ordinary human. He doesn't have any aura of the realm or the Tara."
"Not sure, let's take a look."
Li Muhan and others discussed in low voices while watching the girl's actions.
I saw her fetch a bucket of water, then tilt her head, letting her long hair be gently soaked by the lake water, and then gently combing her long hair with her slender fingers.
"She's... so beautiful."
Li Lingan couldn't help but say.
The others all nodded.
Her beauty, which even An An was amazed by, was the best and irrefutable certification.
At this moment, it was such a simple action of washing hair, but it made several people stunned, including several young girls.
The couple knelt on the ground devoutly, clasped their hands together and closed their eyes in prayer.
So, after washing her hair, the girl stood up, her wet hair draped over her shoulders, and then she looked towards the other side of the lake.
There were seven wine barrels placed on the shore.
The girl slowly put down the barrel and then walked into the lake step by step.
"...She, she's going to swim over here? Then why did she wash her hair just now? She might as well have just taken a shower."
Lin Ziyu asked doubtfully.
Yin Qi glared at him and said, "Be careful or I'll tell Chen Yiming that you wanted to watch other people take a bath."
"Huh? I, I didn't mean that."
"Shh." Li Muhan raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet.
Then several people saw the girl's bare white feet.
She stepped into the lake step by step, but her body did not sink, instead she stepped on the water.
The whole person seemed to be weightless and walking on flat ground.
Soon she reached the other side of the lake. Her long hair on her shoulders was still dripping with water, but the girl didn't seem to care at all.
She slowly bent down, sniffed the wine barrel with her nose, and then smiled with satisfaction.
Then the girl stood up straight, her eyes suddenly looking towards the bushes where everyone was hiding.
"Have you seen enough?"
Her voice is ethereal and pleasant, but it gives people a sense of unreality.
Since they had been discovered long ago, Li Muhan and others did not hide it.
A group of people came out from the bushes.
"Sorry, we didn't mean to peek, but the locals said you don't like being disturbed, so you're hiding."
Lin Ze said with a smile.
As expected of a leader, he has his own way of negotiation.
But the girl tilted her head and looked at the axe that Lin Ze was carrying.
"You are not suited to that weapon," the girl said with a chuckle.
Lin Ze was slightly stunned, then raised his hand and took out his axe.
"Really? I think they're all pretty much the same."
The girl chuckled and shook her head.
"You are very powerful. All weapons are the same in your hands, the only difference being the ability to chop, slash, or pierce. However, the sword is the one that best aligns with your soul."
After saying that, the girl raised her hand slightly, and the calm lake surface behind her began to churn slightly, and then a snow-white long knife with a tuft of white tassels appeared in her hand.
“Give it a try.”
The girl smiled and threw the long knife to Lin Ze.
Lin Ze raised his hand and grasped the hilt of the sword, and then immediately felt the wonder of this long sword.
"There is a certain power in this knife, different from any power I know. What exactly is it..."
It was the first time that Li Muhan saw Lin Ze with such a puzzled expression, and he also began to feel a little curious about the girl's true identity.
The girl clasped her fists slightly and bowed.
"My name is Shao Yu, the fourth princess of Yan Kingdom, and I am also a swordsman cursed by the white dragon."
"Director Lin." Li Muhan asked.
"How about this knife?"
"...Let me put it bluntly, Fu Jiang Zhen Mo is totally inferior to it." Lin Ze said with a frown.
Although the Fujiang Zhenmo created by Lingying is not her best work, it can be regarded as a top-notch one.
The power compatibility can be improved according to the user's soul.
This kind of divine weapon is now even worse than the knife that the girl named Shao Yu casually took out from the lake?
Li Muhan was a little skeptical.
"It's just a little toy I made in my spare time over the past hundred years. Thank you for your compliment."
The girl was very modest.
But what was said made everyone feel uncomfortable.
The weapons forged by the chief engineer of the engineering corps of the Huaxia Special Management Bureau are not as good as the toys you casually made?
Is this arrogance or...
"Shao Yu...Princess, well, we actually just wanted to meet you. I heard you've been here for a hundred years. Are you a native here?"
Li Muhan asked.
The girl chuckled, raised her hand, and tapped the wine barrel lightly with her finger, and then the wooden lid of the barrel shattered instantly.
The girl took out a small cup from somewhere, filled the barrel with wine and drank it all in one gulp.
"I'm not from this world, but I have nowhere else to go."
When the girl said this, a hint of mellow red wine flowed from the corner of her mouth.
"My world no longer exists."
There was a hint of helplessness in her tone, but not much, and her face didn't look overly sad.
"Don't worry, it's been so long. The people and things I cherish have long since become a tiny part of the torrent of time."
"And I need to keep going. If this world needs me, then I will come here. If this place no longer needs me, then I will go to the next place."
After saying this, Shao Yu looked at Li Muhan.
"I see the shadow of my former companion in you... What's your name?"
"Li Muhan."
"Okay, let's get started."
Everyone was stunned.
"Start? Start what?"
The girl scooped up another glass of wine, drank it all, and then threw it away. She jumped back lightly, her toes lightly tapping the surface of the lake, and her long silver hair moved without wind.
"Play a game of chess with me. If you beat me, I'll let you go."
"Wait, wait, this isn't right! We don't have any vested interests, right?" Lin Ziyu asked anxiously.
"No," the girl chuckled, "but it's been ages since I've met an interesting traveler. Just consider it as some company for me, okay?"
"We don't know how to play chess. Why don't we just do it..."
Before Li Muhan finished speaking, Lin Ze immediately raised his hand to stop Li Muhan.
"Don't seek death... Li Muhan, even if Jin Chao is here, we all together will never be her match." Lin Ze's tone was full of seriousness.
Li Muhan was stunned.
No matter how dangerous the enemy was before, I had never seen Lin Ze show such an expression or say such words.
This woman named Shao Yu really doesn't have much of an aura of strength...
"Believe me...Li Muhan."
Lin Ze's forehead was covered with cold sweat. He looked at the girl standing lightly on the lake and said, "She chose to play chess with us... This is already the greatest kindness she can offer us."
"uh-huh."
The girl raised her head slightly, raised the corners of her mouth, and looked at everyone with an arrogant smile.
