Chapter 56: The Mayfly Mirror: Human Animals


The next evening, Hanging Mirror Town was at its most beautiful.

The sunset and the hanging mirror pool in the center of the town reflect each other, dyeing the whole town a mysterious orange.

Elders in white robes dance a ritual dance by the edge of the pond with a mask made of mirrors.

He read words that no one could understand, and circled around the boy who was tied to a large mirror.

Gongs and drums are sonorous and heavy, adding a chill to the sunset.

Yuan Song's eyes were closed, and next to the bronze mirror was the pine tree he never left.

Cheng Niangzi personally carried it this morning, and she knelt on the edge of the pool and watched the pines, pine trees, and mirrors being pushed in together, stirring up several circles of ripples.

"Silly boy, it was providence that arranged for you to come, and the mirror god likes you.

You can go with peace of mind, anyway, you have nothing to worry about, it's this tree, and I will carry it for you.

You go.

Go back and burn more paper money for you......"

The water of the pond hid over Yuan Song's head, and only the last splash remained.

The old man stopped his movements and took off the bronze mirror mask on his face.

Beads of sweat hung on his wrinkled face, shining, but not as satisfied as his eyes.

"Mirror God!

This young offspring you like has been sent to you, may you bless Hanging Mirror Town, the craftsman industry will prosper, and continue to come out on top!

” The old man held the mirror mask above his head and looked reverently at the sky.

The pine tree was half-floating on the water, and the Genshin of the pine attached to it rolled its eyes.

Your mirror god is a demon, isn't he?

Humans?!

"Pray for the smooth arrival of the mirror!"

The old man closed his eyes, held up the mirror mask, and stood upright like a statue for a long time.

The primordial spirit of Yuan Song sank with the pine tree, and the last needle-like leaf fell into the water, and he could still see the pious face of the old man and the happy face of the townspeople.

That's right, just happy.

Different from the false joy he felt when he arrived at Cheng Niangzi's house last night, this is the joy that bubbled up from the bottom of his heart.

It was as if it were not a living person (in their eyes) who were thrown into this bottomless pool.

Rather, it is an offering for worship.

However, Yuan Song did not see Dacheng among these people.

The clothes on his body were changed by Dachengtou himself, a slightly fat robe.

When changing clothes, Dacheng's head was red.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry......"

From bathing to changing clothes, Dacheng doesn't know how many times he said it.

Yuan Song's ears were almost numb.

If he hadn't wanted to see what the hell the mirror god in Hanging Mirror Town was, he really wanted to jump up and pull Dacheng's beard and ask him.

I know I'm sorry and push him to death, I'm sick in the head!

However, Yuan Song held back.

When he was carried away by others, Dacheng had red eyes, squatting on the corner of the yard with his daughter's unburned paper money.

The water completely covered him, and an undercurrent rushed out of the ground, rolling up and pulling down.

He returned to his body and opened his eyes in the water.

The pine tree followed him closely behind, and with the mirror, it flipped under the water, and the undercurrent was turbulent, but Yuan Song managed to avoid all collisions.

I don't know how Dachengtou escaped from this undercurrent unscathed......

Yuan Song thought wildly in the water, guessing how far he was from Hanging Mirror Town, and admiring the workmanship of the mirror.

After a long time, a bright light finally appeared in front of me.

It was like the bottom of a small river in the mountains, the river was not very deep, but the place where he was a pool of water.

As soon as the mirror comes out, it is the kind that emerges from the undercurrent.

It stopped, and Yuan Song had to lie face down on the bottom of the water with the mirror "on his back".

When his eyes adjusted to the tumbling blisters, he was stunned to find that there were still a lot of bronze mirrors here.

Some were turned up, some were covered, covered with different shades of green moss, and there were still bundles on top......

Bones!

It seems that the so-called mirror god did not come to take the "generous gifts" given to her by the townspeople of Hanging Mirror Town.

Among them was a bronze mirror with no green moss on it, brand new.

In the copper ring hanging from the "ear" of the mirror is still half of the rope cut by a sharp object.

Don't think about it, this mirror is the one used to tie Dacheng's head.

It's just that......

How did he do it?

In this situation, um, the feet are tied together, and the hands are tied separately on a rope with copper rings in the ears of the mirrors.

Could it be that someone could help him?

Just as he was thinking, a silverback fish came by with a hook on its mouth.

The fish struggled, tore its mouth and fled, its hook hooking back into Yuansong's shirt.

Yuan Song frowned, and a bubble came out of his mouth. turned it over hard, and even the bronze mirror on his body was turned over by him.

Thankfully, he's not a squirrel now, he's a youkai.

Otherwise, he would have died.

Feeling the hook on his clothes being strained, Yuan Song rolled his eyes in the water.

He "broke free" from the rope, trying to cut off the strong hook and the unusually solid line that held him.

I only heard a pop, and a fish-like boy rushed over in the water, who should be the owner of the hook, and came at him in a daze.

When the boy saw him, his eyes were stunned.

Yuan Song blinked, and the boy's paddling movement accelerated, quickly swam to his side, grabbed his hand, and carried him out of the water.

The boy who was busy saving Yuan Song didn't notice that a pine tree was fluttering behind him, like a living thing.

"Hey!

Are you alright?"

The boy dragged him ashore and jerked him wildly in the face.

Yuan Song was stunned for a moment before quickly reaching out to block it.

Spit out a mouthful of water and said, "You're blind!

Didn't you see that I'm not dead?"

"Hehehehehe.

Hold, sorry, I thought some people died with their eyes open......

So ......" the boy smiled shyly, droplets of water dripping down his black algae-like hair.

Slip over slender necks, slender shoulders and dipped into the cinched waistband.

The boy was shirtless, but he wasn't dark at all.

Coming to the water on the first day?

Yuan Song sat up on the bank full of round stones: "Didn't I wink at you in the water?"

His tone was very unpleasant, this guy looked thin, and the force that pumped on his face was not small.

"I thought I was dazzled."

The boy pointed to his eyes and smiled innocently, "There are too many ripples in the water, and it is easy to be dazzled." ” Yuan Song's eyebrows twitched.

He felt the hook on his clothes, took it off and handed it to the boy: "This is yours, right?"

The fish just now went straight into my clothes, and its mouth was torn, and it ran away. ” "It didn't hurt you, did it?"

The boy suddenly became a little nervous.

Yuan Song thought it was funny, did he look like he would be injured by a fishhook?"

You don't regret that your fish ran away?"

The boy shook his head: "I'm just fishing for fun, I don't eat them." ” "Well, I won't eat it."

Yuan Song thought of the white bones that sank in the water with the bronze mirror, and God knows what the fish here eat and grow so fat.

"Why are you in this river?"

The boy wrinkled his eyebrows, his long eyelashes casting a gray shadow on his eyes.
