028. Like a dream
"But it's a pity..." Mian Wu was a little powerless. "After that human race re-landed on my island, he did not remember the fact that he was dead because of seeing this remains. Now, my people can only use other more troublesome methods."
Taozhaide: "A more troublesome method...?"
“Nothing wrong.”
Shen Wu stretched out her hand and spread it out. The pot placed on the boat slowly floated up and landed in her hand.
"Jingling Pot, this pot was not created by me, but the worship and belief of me by the people of Yingxian Island, and they regard this pot as a holy pot to worship me."
"In the month you landed on the island, my people hope to use this so-called artifact to beg for my blessings and guide the soul of that human race to the right path to the underworld. But..."
Mian Wu smiled: "It seems that they are very important to see this pot. They have taken a lot of procedures and washed it with sea water for a whole month before taking it out. It seems that this can increase more power."
Taozhaide swallowed: "In that month... it turns out that the people on Yingxian Island wanted to kill Brother Zhou more than a month ago?"
After understanding the debt, he interrupted, "Dad, it's not killing Uncle Zhou. But Uncle Zhou, who had eaten, drink, accommodation and transportation with us in this month, was just a wisp of residual soul. He had long been dead, and there was no problem of not killing it."
After making his father look dizzy, he continued to ask, "Mystery Mirage, as you said, this pot does not have any so-called divine power, so what's going on in the end?"
Mian Wu held the pot and smiled, "If the soul leaves the body for 49 days and cannot return to the Yellow Spring, it may become a ghost wandering around the world. At that time, Brother Huang Luo may have to send a special ghost messenger to arrest him. However, before this, the soul that has become a masterless wandering soul will begin to lose control, gradually unable to tell who he is, and at the same time fall into chaos. In other words, it is 'break'. What Hung likes the most is this 'break' thing. Therefore, when my people use this pot, I finally noticed such a physical wandering soul. So I contacted my brother and asked his ghost messenger to come and take him away in advance and enter the Yellow Spring."
Closed his eyes, Taozhaide seemed to be able to see Zhou Xiaowen disappearing as the stars. His face was full of tenderness, and when he faced the girl in front of him, he even revealed his unswerving affection until death.
Is such a affectionate person really the cruel and terrible pirate I just saw?
"I... still can't believe it."
Taozhaide spread his hands
"Brother Zhou looks... not a bad person. He is a good person. Although he doesn't pay attention to details, his heart for Ci'er is not fake. Although I am stupid, I can see this. You say that he is a pirate and kills people like a thief? I can't believe it..."
Mir Wu nodded: "I know, maybe you really can't believe it. But I must admit that the love of this human race for this body is indeed true. Unfortunately, all of this is also based on my illusion of power."
Speaking of this, Mian Wu's expression seemed a little sad. She stood on the boat and turned around. After a circle, the Yingxian face, which was originally inseparable from men and women, instantly turned into the face of a beautiful and refined woman in the Central Plains.
"This is my ability to control the hallucinations, traps, and lies in this world. Many creatures will lie. But your human race has the strongest ability to feel, and it is also the easiest to deceive you."
Looking at the surprised faces of Tao Zhaide and the two men who were owed debt, Mian Wu turned around again. This time, she turned into a middle-aged man with a beard.
"For the past decade, this girl has gone to that port every year. But every year, she uses different incarnations."
Turning around again, at this moment, he turned into an old woman.
"But, a mistaken incarnation made her a beautiful woman in the eyes of outsiders. This was my mistake, and at the same time, it also created such a bad fate that was destined to be wrong."
"Do you still remember Kaka? That boy. He is Ci'er's brother. When he knew that his sister had attracted such a wandering deceased, he was even more angry and anxious, fearing that the dead human race would take his sister away with him."
"Unfortunately, his actions did not cut off this evil fate. On the contrary, it made it look stronger in the dark."
Mian Wu restored Ci'er's appearance and pointed to her nose and said, "I don't know what this girl is thinking, but I think she probably made a secret promise to this human race. But unfortunately, she didn't expect that the human race she fell in love with could only come to see her in the posture of a dead person. From the moment she met, she knew that this relationship was destined to be impossible to have any result."
"And after becoming a pirate, this human race rode through the wind and waves, robbed ships, burned, killed, and robbed. But at the last moment before his death, his thoughts probably returned to the moment when he first met this body master more than ten years ago. That faint secret love turned into an unforgettable obsession, which reinforced this feeling after his death, making him a person who came to Yingxian Island regardless of everything for love. I don't know whether this human race's last moment was kind or evil."
After hearing these words, Taozhaide didn't know what to express.
He could not believe that the man who could touch, see, drank, ran away, and talked about everything was already a dead person... and he could not believe that this young man who looked great was actually a cruel pirate.
but……
Tao Zhaide took a deep breath and stood up straight. Mian Wu smiled at him: "So, you believe what I said now, right?"
Taozhaide nodded, looking helpless: "If...that's true...then I really have nothing to say...Brother Zhou...he..."
Before I finished speaking, but in an instant, the scene in front of me changed again! The blue sky and white sun just now turned into a rich dusk.
Taozhai Deleng was on the spot. He half opened his mouth, looked at the deck under his feet, then raised his head and looked at the pair of men and women in front of him who were embracing each other in the sunset.
That's Zhou Xiaowen...
