Chapter 41: The Art of Mirror Abyss
Chapter 41 The Technique of Mirror Abyss
Since then, Masumi has been staying in the room for a long time every day, keeping the mirror with her, and running to the mountain every week, but every time she comes back down the mountain, it becomes deeper.
My parents were very worried, so they invited many doctors to check it out. Last month, there were occasional worm gangsters who passed by to eat, but there was no effect.
I have encountered this situation before, but it has not been so long. Those will be adjusted in one or two weeks. This time it took a while, and it has been a bit long, and it has become weaker after half a month.
My parents always thought it was a heart disease, but they didn't expect it to be related to insects.
The next day, Masumi took advantage of her parents' busy time and went up the mountain alone.
She walked slowly, her steps were a little sloppy and she was breathing heavily, as if she would fall down at any time. She could only hold the tree and rest for a while before walking into the mountains.
The weather is comfortable and pleasant, and the sun shines through the woods and shines in the mountains, leaving spots of light.
Masumi sat in front of the stone, wondering what he was thinking, and all kinds of birds cried around him.
She sat there blankly, slowly burying her head, as if she was expecting the footsteps of that person in the forest, and the warm sunshine shone on her body. Xiangcheng leaned against the stones that the two of them often came to, and her weak body seemed to have some strength again. She rested her head on her knees and fell asleep.
"What the hell am I doing..." After sleeping for a long time, Xiangcheng suddenly raised her head and said to herself. She herself didn't understand why she suddenly wanted to come to the stone, as if she subconsciously wanted to get closer to him.
She stood up and walked down the mountain.
"Wow wow wow wow..." The sound of running water rang behind her.
"Are you there?"
Xiangcheng turned around slowly, and she saw nothing, only some water stains were present on the ground.
"Do you want to become me? Do you want to become me like this?"
She lowered her eyes and questioned the deserted place with a sad expression.
"Are you also starting to hear the footsteps of Shui Jing?" Seeing Xiangcheng's appearance, Xue Song walked over. He came to the mountains to pick some wild fruits and prepared to use his skills to brew some wine that can see insects. Most of the spiritual wine made from the Great Wilderness crops in the spirit seed bags, and there is not much wine that can see insects.
"Has the hand mirror been polished? If you don't want to be replaced by it, polish it as soon as possible." Xue Song looked at Xiangcheng and said. He didn't know much about insects like the water mirror, and they all knew from the records of the hunting house.
"It doesn't matter, it's okay to be replaced"
"What?" Xue Song was a little stunned when he heard Xiang Cheng's words.
"It's useless for me to continue being myself. If it wants it, give it to it." Kasumi continued.
"I said, I'm not responsible for myself like this, and I can't regret it at that time."
"Swap with water mirrors means losing yourself and your entity, and you will become something that cannot exert any influence on the world by your own will." Xue Song was not surprised. For some people who have never been in contact with insects, no matter how terrible you said, they would not care. It was just like children who like to use their fingers to bucket when they saw electric fans. Only when they had pain would they know that they could not do it.
"That means it will become dispensable..." Xiangcheng lowered his head and asked when he heard Xue Song's words.
"Yeah, yes"
"What's the difference between me now? In that person's heart, I only have that little status. No matter what I say or do, I can't change him at all. It's the same as whether there is any entity or not." Xiangcheng squatted down, hugged his knees, and shrank to the side. Tears overflowed from his eyes and said with a resignation.
"This feeling is very lonely, but there is a place that is even more lonely than this." Xue Song took out the wine pot and drank a sip of wine. It would be fine if he didn't meet it. Since he encountered it and a few words could save his life, he was happy to persuade him once.
"It is a world where creatures who are as physical as insects live. There is a dark place where things that are not needed by this world. The insects have no mind, but many of them are eager for sunshine and want to get out. There is such a lonely place."
"As long as the water mirror is found out by the body, it will disappear. It is an impermanent creature. Humans have living entities, which means that they already have very powerful powers than them, but once you are replaced by it, all of this will be reversed."
"If you want to return to a warm place again, you have to protect yourself..." Xue Song walked into the mountains, leaving Xiang Cheng crying aside. She took out the mirror in her arms and looked blankly.
It's night,
Xiangcheng made a small pot and put it in her room. She looked at the empty appearance in the water and recalled the happy time she had spent with Ajian.
She slowly picked up the mirror,
"Shisheshesheshesheshesheshesheshes..." The sound of the brush rubbing against the mirror sounded, and tears fell on her hands unconsciously. Every time she wiped it, she felt that the distance between her and Ajian was one point longer.
The sob kept ringing with the sound of wiping the mirror, and what she didn't know was that in the corner of the room behind her, the water mirror was about to condense into a solid body.
The next day,
Accompanied by his mother, Xue Song checked Xiangcheng's body. His pulse was very weak and his body was also weak. However, Xue Song did not rashly use spiritual wine to help Xiangcheng regulate his body. It was not too late to wait for the water mirror to solve it. Xiangcheng himself did not know when he came into contact with the insect. If the water mirror was interrupted, an unknown accident might occur.
"Have the mirror been polished?"
Xue Song asked, it seems that time should be very fast, just pay attention to it recently.
"Yes." Kasumi took out the smooth and clear hand mirror from his arms.
"Okay, remember to carry it with you close to it. The water mirror will appear soon. You have to use the mirror to look at it at that moment, don't miss the opportunity..."
Suddenly, Xiangcheng, who was lying down, saw the reflection on the mountain like a mirror through the opened door, and she suddenly stood up.
"What's wrong?"
"I, I'll go to the cottage..."
Looking at the two of them confused, Kasumi made up an excuse and walked out the door.
Xiangcheng dragged her weak body to the mountain. She felt her steps become much lighter, sweat dripping from her pale face, and the reflection was her and Ajian's secret code.
He was back, Xiangcheng thought to himself.
“No one…”
The white stone appeared in front of her, but she did not see anyone there. Kasumi looked around without believing in evil.
Suddenly, a beam of light shook into her eyes. It was a bird's nest with a broken bowl inside, reflecting light under the sunlight. The reflection she saw from her home was that bowl.
The feeling of joy and sanity was filled with joy and sorrow, the weak body could no longer hold on.
Xiangcheng sat down on the ground with his legs weak and then fainted.
The hand mirror slid out of Kasumi's arms and rolled and fell to the side.
And at this moment, the sound of footsteps sounded, and the water mirror was already like a human.
Xiangcheng suddenly woke up when she heard the sound. She saw the pale feet of Shui Mirror not far from her. She stretched her hand into her arms, but found that the mirror rolled on one side and her body could not move. The fingers of her right hand that she stretched out to hold the mirror had begun to turn white and transparent, which made her very scared.
Will I be replaced like this? Will I become something that can only follow people like that?
No! That's too lonely!
What! Don’t imitate me! Xiangcheng mustered up the courage, turned his head to look at the water mirror, and scolded loudly.
...
"What? Just open your eyes, don't use a mirror at all." Xue Song made a tsk sound. He recorded the discovery on the scroll. When he turned around and passed by the Hunfang House, he would also inform Dan You of the new discoveries along the way. "Sure enough, the human beings with entities are already powerful enough!"
"I haven't noticed it before. You are a very handsome person, just a little bit dark, but it's okay, I..." Xiang Cheng, who was lying on the bed, staring at Xue Song straight and said.
"What?" Xue Song looked at the girl who had just escaped from danger with a black look on his face, feeling speechless.
"Why are your hair so long? Where are you from? Are you married?"
"It seems that it's really good."
Ignoring the illegitimate girl, Xue Song looked at the middle-aged couple with her eyes closed, and said with a smile. He took out some spiritual wine and asked Xiangcheng to drink it, then carried the suitcase and walked out.
"Then, let's say goodbye."
"Oh, I'll be there for a while..."
After walking out the door, Xiang Cheng, who was finally pulled by his parents, said goodbye to the three of them, and Xue Song walked towards the pool that Xiang Cheng mentioned.
"Is it here?" Xue Song sighed at the pool water in front of him, which was no longer turbulent and like a mirror.
He stared at himself in the lake, only knowing that the water mirror was attracted by reflection.
After a while, some waves arose in the middle of the pool water, and a phantom slowly rose.
"Sure enough, I've returned to my original place." Xue Song looked at Shui Jing and stretched out his hand.
"...Congratulations... for obtaining the skill "Mirror Abyss Art" and using a water mirror to reflect people. On the twenty-one day, you can collect three souls and seven spirits."
Seeing the introduction of the skills, Xue Song was also a little stunned. This really gave him a big surprise. Although it was useless now, it gave him a bold guess.
"Come with me, I'll take you to the pond in deeper mountains and old forests, which is more suitable for your survival..."
Retracting his mind and looking at the water mirror squatting in front of him like a pet, Xue Song said and turned around and walked into the mountains, and behind him were squirming water stains.
