Bones and scales
Yan Chan's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she slowly opened her eyes. Her body seemed to be floating.
She waved her limbs, but there was a resistance that prevented her from moving her arms quickly.
I can only move lightly and slowly.
She lay on her back in the dark pool of water, not knowing where to float to.
Yan Chan realized this and quickly covered his mouth and nose with his hands, but unfortunately, even raising his hands became difficult because of the restricted movement of the pool water.
Hey, she didn't seem to choke.
Yan Chan gradually loosened the hands that were covering her mouth and nose, and instead reached up to touch them.
Her body seemed to be wrapped in a layer of bubbles.
But why is it still suppressed?
However, when she thought that this was a fantasy world, she no longer had the energy to think about it.
Looking up, she saw that the endless water was so far away from her.
It's too dark in here.
I must have reached the bottom.
She reached behind her and felt like there was something underneath, pressing against her waist.
She took it in front of her and rubbed it for a while. It was long and thin.
A little curved.
It feels bad to the touch.
“…”
Yan Chan didn't move anymore, she remained silent.
She felt for bones.
Suddenly she remembered that Gao Tinghan wanted her to take a piece of bone from the pool of water.
Although she couldn't see clearly what the bone looked like, she didn't think it was the one in her hand.
Suddenly, she began to worry.
It was pitch black here, and she was lucky enough to be able to touch one bone. She actually had to find the bone belonging to the Wanfang Realm. Wasn't this deliberately making things difficult for her?
However, Yan Chan was not discouraged. She just complained in her heart and still wanted to try hard.
She walked at the bottom of the pool, her limbs were somewhat out of control and she almost floated up.
Sometimes standing, sometimes lying down.
Suddenly, my foot slipped and I almost fell into a deeper place.
She seemed to hear the sound of sand sliding, so Yan Chan lowered her body and lay on the edge.
I reached forward and grabbed it, and there seemed to be a crack there.
She thought she had reached the bottom of the pool, but she never imagined that there was another world beneath the water.
Yan Chan was about to get up and take a detour when she caught a glimpse of the only light she saw at the bottom of the pool.
What is glowing?
Yan Chan leaned over to look again. The light was very faint, coming from this crack.
Perhaps the light was too far away from her...
With this guess, Yan Chan hesitated again.
It's too deep there.
Gao Tinghan once said that there are unexpected surprises in Buqitan, could this be it?
It felt like there were two little people pulling at Yan Chan's head.
One of them told himself not to go down because it was too dangerous.
Another one, make sure you go down and get the glowing thing.
Her mind was constantly arguing with each other, so Yan Chan simply sat down where she was, holding her chin with one hand and waiting to act accordingly, waiting for whoever won the argument.
She's the only one here anyway.
As she thought about it, she recalled her "personal experience" after falling into the Buqi Pond.
What is that?
A dream
But it's a bit too real.
"Hey, I don't know what's going on outside."
No one knows how long she "slept" at the bottom of the pool.
It is impossible to tell day from night here. Yan Chan sat for a long time and his legs became numb.
So she tapped her legs on both sides and stood up with one hand on the ground.
"Hey, why did the light down there get brighter?" Yan Chan muttered in confusion, moving his body.
All I saw was that ball of white light, which was becoming visibly brighter and brighter.
It seemed as if something was about to burst out from the crack.
Yan Chan took a step back suddenly and almost tripped over the bones under her feet. She staggered to her feet and looked up to see the white light floating just above the crack.
Yan Chan squinted her eyes because of the bright light. She raised her arms to block her eyes, although the effect was minimal.
The light gradually faded and turned into a ball of unknown object flying towards Yan Chan.
She opened her palms and steadily caught the object, which was no longer dazzling, even though it still glowed white.
It's a piece of bone
Yan Chan quickly realized that these were bones from the Wan Fang Realm.
Because Gao Tinghan had said before that it was very special and could be recognized at a glance.
Yan Chan thought it was indeed very special...
Whose good person's bones can still glow...
Brother Ghost King... This sounds like a big villain, but I didn’t expect his bones are quite "white".
But fortunately I can get the job done.
Yan Chan looked up again and felt worried. She would be exhausted if she swam up there.
She shook the bone in her hand. Since it was so magical that it could fly up by itself and into her hand, it must be able to take her up, right?
But she tried many ways, even various gestures, but nothing worked.
Yan Chan accepted his fate and put the bones away, trying to swim upwards.
At this moment, Guan Zheng also woke up. She was not surprised to find herself in the bubble, as if she had experienced this before.
Her mind suddenly flooded with memories, far more than she had expected.
Instead, she was surprised by the sudden appearance of something in her hand.
She remembered... not "before".
She came to her senses and realized that since she had changed everything, it was not surprising that this happened.
She, like a butterfly, just flapped her wings gently.
Moreover, many things that happened before were very different from her memory.
Now it feels like a brand new beginning.
She still remains unsure about her future path.
What Guan Zheng wants to do most now is to meet Yan Chan.
What she saw when she fell into the Buqi Pond were memories of her first life. I wonder which life Yan Chan saw...
So Guan Zheng closed her eyes and clenched the thing in her hand tightly, even though it was a little prickly.
"Ding Ling", the soul-catching bell floated up from the waist, and the power it exerted burst the bubbles around the body.
The Soul-Catching Bell was immersed in the dark water, moving with the waves, and the azure light dyed the water.
Guan Zheng could sense that the pool of water was now filled with "people", some who had already woken up and some who had not yet.
It is still too difficult to find someone with the Soul-Catching Bell.
Her control over the Soul-Catching Bell was still too weak, and Guan Zheng stared blankly at the bell in her hand.
If the Ghost King had not blocked part of the bell's power, I would have died of the pain in the ancestral hall.
She didn't have time to think and swam upstream quickly. Fortunately, she was very close to the water surface, otherwise she would have experienced suffocation again.
Although I was lucky enough to be rescued last time, it may not be the case this time.
After swimming ashore, Guan Zheng sneezed violently, and her palm brushed across the water droplets still dripping from her face.
She hugged her legs and rested on the shore. The water was too cold and almost froze her hands and feet to the point of numbness and inability to use them.
Guan Zheng wrung her dress, which had become heavy due to being soaked in water, and water splashed down onto the ground, wetting the area around her.
"A-choo," another sneeze.
She was afraid that she might actually catch a cold, but the wilderness nearby was completely different from where she came from.
Guan Zheng opened her palm and saw that she was holding a scale.
These scales are quite unique, with a variety of colors.
Looks somewhat familiar.
But a large amount of memories just flooded into her mind, which was really confusing. For a moment, Guan Zheng couldn't remember where she had seen it.
The hairpin on her head was already shaky, and now it fell to the ground while shaking. The hairpin, which was still wet, was covered with dirt as soon as it hit the ground.
Guan Zheng picked up the hairpins and rings on the ground, half-knelt on the shore and stirred them in the water a few times.
Not long after the hairpins left the water, a "splashing" sound was heard, which was the sound of water splashing.
Guan Zheng and Yan Chan, who was emerging from the water, happened to meet each other's eyes.
"Yan Chan!" The astonishment in Guan Zheng's eyes was immediately replaced by surprise. Her eyes were shining and a bright smile hung on the corners of her mouth. She took a step back and reached out to pull Yan Chan out.
Yan Chan extended her hand, and her cold hands climbed onto Guan Zheng's forearm, her five fingers tightly clasping her.
Her fingers were long and slender, and her thumb could be completely folded over and placed on the tip of her ring finger.
Guan Zheng rushed straight into Yan Chan's arms, hugged her waist and refused to let go.
Even though Yan Chan felt cold, he didn't care.
After all, she wasn't that warm.
"Do you know how my heart broke the moment you fell?"
"You also... went down." Yan Chan looked at her wet appearance and thought that Guan Zheng must have fallen into the water. He just didn't know if Guan Zheng saw something like him.
Or is it that only I can see the "dream"?
"Then what do you want me to do? Stand here and wait for you? Do you know that once you jump down, you will disappear!" Guan Zheng looked up at her.
"Why are you crying?" Guan Zheng quickly withdrew from her arms and stroked the corners of Yan Chan's eyes with her fingertips.
"I...I am so touched." Yan Chan pulled Guan Zheng into his arms again and lowered his head to rest it on her shoulder and neck.
Yan Chan said this to frame her.
In fact, after Yan Chan saw Guan She, she remembered Guan Zheng’s tragic death in the "Dream".
The experience was so real that she still remembered the heart-wrenching pain she felt that day.
She seemed to be dominated by a "dream". She had never been someone who would cry easily.
But Yan Chan just couldn't control himself at this moment.
She really experienced the feeling of "lost and regained" today.
Guan Zheng knew how hard Yan Chan was trying, as if she wanted to hold her in her arms.
"Yan Chan, be gentler, you're hurting me." Guan Zheng patted her back gently, and she seemed to be lifted up.
"Mother..." Yan Chan came back to her senses in an instant and quickly changed her words: "You are too delicate. Where does it hurt? Let me rub it for you."
Guan Zheng pointed to places on her body: "Here, here, and... here."
"Do you want to help me?" Guan Zheng curled the corners of her mouth and looked at Yan Chan's somewhat straight eyes cunningly.
"Do you want me to help you?" Yan Chan chuckled and looked back. She was not afraid.
It's not like I haven't encountered it before.
"You are really brave. You are not afraid of being seen." Yan Chan leaned over and whispered in her ear.
"Do you still want to change places?" Guan Zheng said with a pout.
"It seems like the person you've been thinking about is you?" Yan Chan didn't fall for her trick.
Guan Zheng snorted and turned her head away, ignoring her. She was right that she wanted to, but so what.
She still remembered that Yanchan wanted to be in the carriage...
There were other people in the carriage, but there was not even an animal to be seen in this desolate wilderness.
What? Are you getting braver this time?
Guan Zheng didn't believe it before, and she still doesn't believe it now. This nonsense that one's personality will change a lot after reincarnation.
"Aren't you afraid of catching a cold?" Yan Chan held her shoulders and turned her over.
As soon as she finished speaking, Guan Zheng sneezed again.
"See, I was right, wasn't I?" Yan Chan laughed.
