Four Conch Shells
"Yan Chan, how are you? Are you feeling unwell?" Guan Zheng approached "Gao Tinghan" cautiously, glanced at Wu Chunlai and then looked at her.
The water in the pond returned to calm again, only the splashing sound of "Yan Chan" was still lingering in my mind.
"It's nothing, it's just that this dagger is really powerful." She still had the mind to tease, and she was not lying intentionally to make Guan Zheng feel at ease.
Wu Chunlai was still in a sleeping state, his limbs lazily lying on the ground. If his head had not been leaning against the stone wall behind him, it would have drooped.
The loose hair on her forehead seemed to have been wet by the rain, and even after it dried in the wind, it still fell in wisps on both sides of her face.
Time passed minute by minute, and a few beads of sweat appeared on Gao Tinghan's forehead. Perhaps it was because Yan Chan's spirit was weaker than Wan Fangjie's, so it was particularly difficult for him to hold the dagger.
Guan Zheng was not like Yan Chan who was trapped and unable to move. She walked to the edge of Shi Ya Pond and looked at the dark green water with lingering fear.
The water surface, which had lost its dark blue color, was not much different from the water in the nearby pool, and was even more turbid.
There seemed to be something floating on the water, but Guan Zheng squinted her eyes and still couldn't see it clearly.
But when her gaze shifted back again, the thing had disappeared, leaving only a small splash of water, perhaps it had sunk into the pool.
Guan Zheng stared at the blurry reflection on the water in a daze. She covered her face in a daze, which was even colder than her hands.
Her appearance is both a blessing and a curse for her.
Fortunately, everything is over.
Guan Zheng rubbed her hands until her palms became warm and then placed them on both sides of her cheeks.
The red bloodshot in her eyes still haunted her, and she hadn't slept well in the past few days.
As soon as I closed my eyes, I saw that unbearable scene.
Guan Zheng looked back at "Yan Chan" and finally felt better.
She longed for a hug, but that was Gao Tinghan's body.
The feeling of emptiness consumed her bit by bit until it solidified into visible tears.
Memories rushed into her head all at once. Guan Zheng is still a little emotionally unstable. Occasionally, when she thinks back to the "past", she feels very sad.
She believed that time would dilute everything, but the process was extremely torturous.
Her life seemed tragic.
Guan Zheng attributed all this to her extremely yin fate, and that was indeed the case.
Now she actually hopes that the Ghost King can take away her fate as soon as possible as they agreed.
If not at the cost of life.
The more afraid Guan Zheng was, the more she felt that this possibility was extremely high. Perhaps because she was used to being unlucky, she always thought of the worst case scenario.
Guan Zheng wiped away her tears. Today was a little strange. Her emotions came and went very quickly.
Especially when approaching Stone Crow Pond.
Guan Zheng realized this and quickly took three steps back. She looked at the calm water and could not see the strong resentment floating in the air.
That was emitted by those with extremely yin fate.
She didn't belong there.
She had been sacrificed, but she had escaped.
Yan Chan looked at Guan Zheng, whose eyes were slightly red, and felt a little sad.
She knew that Guan Zheng was sensitive and it would be difficult for her to get over something like that.
Fengdu Ghost Market is not a good place to relax, and Yan Chan has no choice but to let his breath completely envelop her.
The method is very effective, but it cannot be used now.
"Guan Zheng, don't worry, I'm here." She pulled the sleeve that Guan Zheng was holding tightly in her hand and pulled it out bit by bit.
Guan Zheng nodded slightly, a smile rising in her sadness.
She is much better now. She was just affected by the resentment just now.
"This thing is like alive." Guan Zheng lightly touched the half of the dagger that was exposed outside. She did not touch the blade but placed her fingertips on the smooth blade.
"Still warm," she added.
Then Guan Zheng tidied up her messy hair, and suddenly she sneezed and subconsciously covered her mouth and nose.
"The wind is blowing." Yan Chan clenched her palms and blew away the scattered bangs on her forehead. She really couldn't appreciate Gao Tinghan's style.
He was wearing a three-layered gray-white shirt that looked like rags, with one piece tucked in on the left and one corner tucked in on the right.
It was still loose on the shoulders, as if it would fall off at any second, but it always managed to hang on the shoulders.
The only thing she liked was this intricately crafted waist chain, with three or four chains hanging from it and inlaid with all kinds of beautiful stones.
Yan Chan looked carefully and found that they were not gems but pebbles.
However, judging from its beauty alone, it is comparable to jewelry.
I don’t know if he was too lazy to cut his hair or if he left it that way on purpose, but it kind of blocks the eye.
She squatted down with a large part of her hair scattered on the ground. Yan Chan had to tilt her neck back every once in a while, and the weight of her hair made her feel uncomfortable.
Other than that, she didn't feel uncomfortable at all.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to look up, Yan Chan saw the waves on the surface of Shiyatan Lake caused by the wind.
Judging from the time, Gao Tinghan should be back soon.
Yan Chan felt that if she continued squatting like this, her feet would become numb, so she moved her body slightly, but almost stepped on her own robe and fell backwards.
Yan Chan looked at the dagger that was mostly pulled out because of her action, and suddenly a thin layer of sweat broke out on her body. Fortunately, the tip of the knife was still inserted inside, otherwise she would have pulled it out completely.
Although Gao Tinghan only said that the dagger must not be allowed to penetrate, the safest approach is to keep it as it is.
Yan Chan didn't want to cause any more trouble.
I stopped thinking about it and just did what he told me to do.
During this time, apart from keeping the dagger in her hand, her mind was in a blank state.
Once people start to daydream, they tend to have wild thoughts, and even cicadas are no exception.
She even began to enjoy her life back in the fishing village. Such a simple and beautiful life was what she had always been pursuing.
It was also something that was out of reach for her before she transmigrated into the book.
She still remembers the painful feeling of being tortured by illness. It was not only a feeling of powerlessness, but also a feeling of exhaustion.
Her thin body made her miss out on many wonderful experiences.
Yan Chan didn't know why she was transported into a book, but she was very grateful for this opportunity, which allowed her to experience a different life.
She was also allowed to meet Guan Zheng.
She really liked Guan Zheng so much that Yan Chan looked back at Guan Zheng who was still fighting a sneeze, and her lips couldn't fall down at all.
According to modern people, this should be called love at first sight.
However, Yan Chan also saw a comment like this on the Internet: All love at first sight is nothing more than lust at first sight.
She touched her chin. Was he attracted by her beauty? It seemed that he was a little bit.
Yan Chan still remembers the first time she met Guan Zheng. She was wet by the sea water and looked particularly pitiful.
She resisted the urge to help Guan Zheng trim her hair. After all, it was their first meeting and such an action would seem too abrupt.
When they met for the second time, Yan Chan stood behind Guan Zheng, looked at her slightly red face, and felt the urge to kiss her.
The day they chatted under the moon was the third time they met. She still remembered Guan Zheng’s bright eyes, which were a pair of eyes that could speak and were always smiling.
True love cannot be hidden, and there is no need to hide it.
Yan Chan tried hard to act as if nothing had happened, but she couldn't deceive her own heart. She could only try her best to modify her expression.
Even though all this can be easily seen through, only Guan Zheng, who is involved in the situation, will be deceived by her illusion.
She was too afraid of losing, so she didn't dare to own.
She was really afraid that Guan Zheng would regret it, and Yan Chan didn't want to be abandoned.
Being alone is great, but it's also too lonely.
Yan Chan has experienced this kind of life. This is the path she has walked before. At the beginning, she did not have the courage to choose a different path.
That's why he "rejected" Guan Zheng in every possible way and was unwilling to give her a "status".
"Guan Zheng, I like you."
Hearing this, Guan Zheng raised her head from her sleeve in confusion. She was a little confused by Yan Chan's confession, which was unexpected and sudden.
But she quickly reacted, a smile appeared on her lips, and the corners of her eyes curved slightly, like ripples on the lake surface blown by the spring breeze, rippling with clear light.
Although Guan Zheng didn't know why Yan Chan said this at this time, her heart was still beating fast.
She thought, this life...will definitely have a happy ending.
"Crash", a huge sound came from the middle of the Stone Crow Pond.
It is the sound made by the "swallow cicada" flying out of the pond.
Gao Tinghan is back.
As soon as he stood by the water, he forcefully switched their bodies back.
Yan Chan had not yet recovered from the numbness in her feet when she suddenly returned to her body and half-knelt on the ground with a "pop". The soles of her feet felt numb as if they were being pricked by tiny needles.
She stood up again "shakily" and saw Gao Tinghan's movements clearly.
He loosened his hand, allowing the dagger to penetrate into Wu Chunlai's body and disappear.
Yan Chan didn't know what would happen to Wu Chunlai if the dagger entered his body, but it didn't seem to be life-threatening.
His breathing was still smooth, as if he was asleep.
Not even an eyelash trembled.
"Here you go, this is a reward." Gao Tinghan spread out his palm, and the shadow of the four-sea conch gradually solidified.
A key was thrown from Gao Tinghan's hand.
Yan Chan raised her arm and grasped the four conchs firmly in her hand. Even though the sharp spikes on the handle pricked her palm, she was unwilling to let go easily.
"Is this the Four Sea Conch?" Yan Chan opened his hand carefully and gently brushed over the key.
Guan Zheng held her arm and took a quick glance. This was indeed the four-shell conch she had seen in her previous life.
In her previous life, she had other intentions towards the Four Conchs, but she was not so obsessed with them in this life.
Now she just wants to leave this damn place with Yan Chan and find a quiet place to live a good life.
She has never been interested in the fighting and killing in the martial arts world. She still remembers the bloody storm caused by the birth of the Four Conchs "back then". This life seems to be a little different.
She was also happy to see it happen.
The fewer people who know that the Four Conchs are in Yan Chan's hands, the better, and the safer it will be.
"Let's hurry up and leave Fengdu Ghost Market." Guan Zheng knew the location of Atlantis. It was a strange place.
Everyone thinks that the gate of Atlantis is near the sea, but it is not.
It is in a desert.
