Emotions sprouting like crazy.

Xu You returns to the blank space, clutching his head and clenching his teeth, curling up with his body so hard that his face turns pale.

Forced detachment is not the same as system buffer detachment, system buffer detachment is the host to complete the task, the system gives the host time to prepare, to assist in detaching from the world, so that the stimulus to the host to minimize the damage.

The forced detachment is usually the host mission failure, or death, in order to prevent the world bug, by the world exclusion of the detachment, that is the host's nerve stimulation is quite large, more than two times, the host may be completely crazy.

Seven Eight didn't dare to disturb Xu You for fear of making any mistake, so she could only let her relieve herself.

Blank space time like standing still, but also like in the infinite flow, and so Xu You endured the pain of the head cracked spikes, do not know how long it has been.

"The mission failed?" Xu You pressed his heart, always feeling that empty feeling more and more obvious, "Then he ......"

"Actually ......" Seven Eight looked hesitant, looked at Xu You twice, its mood was complicated, it didn't know if it should be happy or sad, "The mission is accomplished."

Xu You froze, and it took a long time to find his voice, "Finished? What about Si Yu?"

She remembered that when she left the island, her trust value was 90, and her blackness value was still 21, and she had no contact with them since then, so how did her trust value reach 100, and how did her blackness value go down to zero?

Xu You chuckled as he saw Nanashi's hesitation to speak, and a sense of unease hit him, "I want to see the mission replay."

Seven Eight said with a headache and struggle, "Forget it, it's all done, what's the point of watching a mission replay, it's a waste of-"

"Have you wasted fewer points?" Xu You looked at it and said seriously, "I refuse to cooperate with the rest of the mission if you don't show me the replay."

Seven Eight really couldn't do anything about her, so she said heartily, "You're the one who wants to see it, don't blame me if you regret it."

When it finished, it put up a screen projection.

Against the backdrop of the blue sky and wide ocean, Si Yu sat on the beach and looked in the direction Xu You had left, and he remained motionless for a long time, as silent as the rocks in the distance.

After a few days of wind and sun, his skin began to crack, his fish tail lost its luster, and his scales dried and buckled.

Wei Yu, a shark who swam through here, saw his brother on land who was out of place, immediately swam over, sized up Si Yu twice, and frowned, "Ritual, what are you doing?"

Si Yu didn't move as if he hadn't heard.

"You'll wear out the life span." Without saying a word, Wei Yu dragged him back into the sea.

Si Yu touches the water and wakes up as if in a dream before noticing his brother.

Wei Yu swam next to him and suddenly asked, as if something had occurred to him, "Where's your mate?"

It was fine if he didn't ask, but once he did, he saw Si Yu's dimmed eyes, and Wei Yu instantly realized, "She betrayed you, didn't she?" I didn't realize that the ghost race was just as unreliable as the human race.

"No." Si Yu swam away, returned to his unusual perch, broke open the large shell, and lay down in it.

The big shell no longer contains the crystal stones he previously collected, and he empties it of all his treasures, leaving only what Xu You gave him, the frozen Gongying Pu wreath, the bamboo dragonflies, and the small grasshoppers.

It was empty enough for him to roll over in it.

The shell closes, it's pitch black, the air is thin, and the current is stagnant.

He withered his eyes open, always feeling that somewhere in his body was hard at all times, as if he was being run through with an ice pick, cold and painful.

Perhaps it was because a while ago, he had used up all his eagerness, and he didn't want to move at all now.

Si Yu pursed his lips and couldn't help but wonder if she would ever come back.

When you come back, will you go again.

But there are countless beauties out there, how can one side of the blue sea keep her.

Breathing gradually burning pain, Si Yu again thought, can not stay words ....... Then can she come back to see him from time to time, not often, just by chance, ten days, half a month or half a year, she can come back to stay with him for a while.

He'll be waiting.

When he sees her, he seems to see the beautiful Gongying Pu in the sky, and when she is not there, he is left with the lonely sea.

If he could go to her he wouldn't have to wait so long, he could follow her around wherever she wanted to go.

No one can separate them.

And he doesn't have to worry about being left behind.

Si Yu waved his tail, chagrined for the first time that it wasn't a pair of legs.

He used to think that having a tail was excellent, as a shark, living in the sea without restraint, not getting involved in the middle of the human race's open and shut battles.

Now he felt bad for Tails, nothing was better than her.

The shark, who hadn't slept in more than ten days, fell asleep clasping his beloved trinket, senselessly in the shell.

In his dream, he saw a garden filled with jasmine flowers, and in the center of the field of white flowers was a cold tombstone that seemed to press on his heart, so heavy that it hurt.

He held his breath, wondering who was lying inside.

In the next instant, the scene shifted to show a woman being bitten in the neck by a poisonous snake; her face was blue, her ten fingers were black, and her life was in danger.

Who she is.

Si Yu looks down and sees a dagger in his heart, he tears the wound open himself and pulls out his heart and hands it out, blood all over the floor.

The intense pain woke Si Yu up, he covered his heart and gasped for air, the fragments of memories in his mind were strewn and fused, like pieces of a puzzle sticking together.

Something intangible was resisting, giving him a splitting headache, a memory puzzle that was repeatedly glued and torn apart, the strings of his nerves being constantly pulled.

"Who she is."

"Who I Am ......"

Si Yu rushes out of the shell and collides with the oncoming Wei Yu.

"Eh, what are you doing, like you've lost your mind." Wei Yu was knocked backward.

He was really worried about Si Yu's condition. Being betrayed by his partner was not a small matter, and the sharks would choose to spend their whole lives alone or die immediately, so he couldn't rest assured, and he stayed nearby for a few days, afraid that Si Yu would go ashore again and do something stupid.

Si Yu covered his head and agonized, "I am ...... Who am I ......"

Wei Yu puzzled: "You are a ritual ah."

"No," Si Yu was so confused that his words were reversed, "I am Min Duan, and no, I should be Jue Shen."

"I am human ...... It's a fox ......"

Wei Yu was in a daze and couldn't understand what he was saying, "Ritual, what the hell is wrong with you?!"

"Wait! Where are you going!!!" Wei Yu was slammed away by Si Yu, who chased him for some distance before he was lost to Si Yu.

"Tsk." He flicked his tail in annoyance, smashing the coral reef next to him.

Si Yu swims to the deepest part of the seabed, the Stone Forest Canyon, where the rocks are black as ink and the towering stone forests on either side of the canyon cover the sky.

The deeper you swim, the dimmer your vision becomes.

"Who's--"

A voice so hoarse that it was hard to tell if it was male or female echoed out across the canyon.

Si Yu came to a rock well covered with red and blood runes and said in a faint voice, "Shark Clan Si Yu ."

"The Sharks?" A wry laugh came from the rocky well, "The Sailor Clan can only be here for one thing, have you thought this through?"

"Rather like no shark has dared to come here in the last thousand years."

There was a sound from the rock well, and in a short time a monster crawled out, he had two tails, a snake tail and a fish tail, greenish scales covered the upper half of his body, and his face was covered by a solid black mask.

He was known as the Fish Witch, and was said to have been one of the first generation of the Shark Clan, who, because of his overpowering demonic power and his offense, was imprisoned here by the Sea God for all eternity.

No one knows his real name, and no one has ever seen his face.

Fish Witch surveyed Si Yu, his eyes fixed on his tail for a moment, "This tail is the most beautiful I've ever seen, for a moment I can't bear it, if you regret it later there will be no way back."

Si Yu: "No regrets."

Fishwitch glanced at him, "Okay, you lie down on that rock."

"Sharks are blessed by the Sea God, they get fish tails to swim and shark pearls to live longer," the pair of eyes under the mask narrowed and looked towards Si Yu who was lying flat on his back on the rocks, and said in a cold voice, "If you choose to cut yourself off, you will be abandoned by the Sea God."

Si Yu just said, "Start."

Fish Witch abruptly laughed, his timbre was morose, "The first step, condense the bead and shatter it."

Si Yu sniffs, coagulates the shards from his blood until he congeals the shark beads and hands them to the Fish Witch with a ghastly grimace.

The fish witch turned the light blue luster of the shark beads, paused twice, the tone more serious: "There have been sharks who came here before, but when they heard the first step, they backed off, so there have never been any sharks to do this."

What is it, exactly, that makes him so determined.

But whatever it is, it's not worth it.

"Step two, cut open the tail of the fish."

"Really?" The Fish Witch said, "I can't guarantee success, if you waver for a second you will fail, do you understand?"

"Do it." Si Yu watched the halo of light that fell from the surface into the water, bright as a peacock light.

He remembered that there had been a night when she had smiled brightly under a sky full of Kongming lanterns.

When was that scene? It's a little too distant to remember.

The Fish Witch took out a sharp ice knife, and the cold light fell on Si Yu's blue fish tail, and the knife fell from his hand-

Si Yu instantly clenched his fists, his body spasmed and jerked in pain, veins rippled on the backs of his bony hands, and his voice was contained in his throat, muffled and broken.

Blood stained the ice blade and dripped from the end of the tail into the ground.

The time was swiftly long and hard, and the sound of ripping flesh and blood continued.

......

Si Yu's light blue eyes were bloodshot, his chest rose and fell slightly, but his breath was extremely weak.

The Fish Witch looked at his disemboweled tail and, with a long sigh, raised her hand and crushed his shark beads, sprinkling the powder over his tail.

The fish witch cut her fingertips, dripped three drops of blood, recited an ancient incantation, and all of a sudden, the bloody tail was wrapped in a ball of light.

In a short time, the scales on the fish's tail disappeared and turned into white skin with toes sprouting from the end.

The mass of light faded and the blue fishtail completely transformed into a pair of slender legs.

Fishwitch turned and went back into the rocky well with the slightly echoing words, "Leave when you're rested."

"Remember, when you turn your back on Poseidon, you carry a curse from then on and may never return to the sea."

"As well as when you go ashore, you can only say one thing."

"After you finish a sentence, you'll--"

"I know." Si Yu interrupted him.

Another odd chuckle sounded from below Iwai, "Good to know, this is the vengeance that Poseidon bestows on betrayers."

--

Si Yu made it to shore, and this time he used not his tail, but a pair of legs, legs that could walk and follow her around.

Even though these legs were causing him extreme pain, every step was like stepping on the tip of a knife, and the pain in the heart was nothing more than that.

But he resigned himself to the fact that he would soon see her.

Wanted to hear her call his name, wanted to see her show him a smile, wanted him in her eyes.

Fierce emotions sprouted madly within his chest, and he clenched his teeth as he took a step to throw down the ocean behind him.

Si Yu walked for a long time, walked far away, only to realize that the world was so big, so big that he was a little worried that he would not be able to find her.

Or has he been lost to her.

Si Yu could only say one thing. He always wondered when he was tossing and turning on earth, if he could find her, to say one thing to her, what would he say?

--Did we love each other in our past lives and will we meet again in the next life?

--I love you, and if there is an afterlife, there must be.

There was actually a lot he wanted to say to her, but he ended up with the selfish thought that if he just kept his mouth shut, they could be together forever.

Not to say, he decided.

Si Yu couldn't read the roads, and it took a few tries to find the site of the palace, but there was no sign of her.

He went back towards her favorite mountain forest to find it.

It was already winter time, the sky fell a blanket of snow, a man with silver hair, because of the long journey and limp.

Snow fell on his shoulders and fine ice froze on his eyelashes.

Between the snow-white colors of heaven and earth, he limped and walked doggedly, leaving behind one deep and one shallow lonely and long trail.

In the midst of all the despair, there was only a glimmer of hope that sustained him in his steps.

He'll find her, for sure.

Some more time passed.

Si Yu passed a broken hut and suddenly his heart palpitated with all his senses.

It's her!

Si Yu's eyes were wide open, and they were full of surprise and disbelief.

He closed his eyes and recited the mantra of inspiration, but sensed that she was .......

Si Yu breathed a shudder and raised his hand, a necklace broke out and flew into his hand, the very same crystal necklace in the shape of a pentagram.

He froze, looking up at the broken ground where a stone tablet stood, along with unburned paper money.

"Creak," the door of the thatched hut opened, and a small beggar came out, his tone extremely unfriendly: "Who are you, and why are you digging other people's graves!"

The little beggar stared, crossed his arms and said angrily: "Do you know whether to respect the deceased, into the ground for peace know not, digging people's graves by the wrath of God!"

She looked at it and then felt that it wasn't quite right, the man - he looked too sad as well.

He stared at the stone tablet in a daze, his eyes were red, the blood on his face faded, his whole body was trembling, the pentagram on the necklace was deeply rooted into his palm, and a few drops of crimson blood landed on the snow, imitating a blooming plum blossom.

"You ......" The little beggar asked hesitantly, "know that little ghost girl?"

Si Yu could no longer hear her words, his chest filled with all sorts of screaming and struggling emotions, the first to come up was anger.

He's being lied to.

And then clenching the heart is infinite aggravation and pain.

Yeah, he's been duped again.

--Life is so long. There's always a return date.

--Ghosts don't die. We'll meet again sometime.

The white jasmine field with the stone monument standing in the center overlaps the scene with the stone monument standing on the snow-filled ground.

" Xu You, I've been fooled by you again."

His voice contained pain and bitterness, the end of his voice trembled lightly as he finally spoke.

Next moment.

The little beggar once again wide-eyed, saw him emit light white light, the body slowly broken, and finally turned into a floating foam, disappeared with the wind in the sky and earth, and the white snow melted into a piece.

After a long time, the little beggar came back to his senses, and wanted to walk over to pick up the necklace, when he issued a tiny flash of light left behind where the man had just stood.

She got closer for a closer look and realized it was a pearl.

It's the tears he falls.
