Me and the Doll Girl of Zhidiao Island

Chapter 119 117. May I ask, who will you pay for?

Najiu Mountain is like a dormant monster, wild birds chirp wantonly on the branches, and the leaves rub against each other to make a crisp sound.

In the mountains and forests, the distinct rhythms that rise and fall are like breathing, sometimes rising and sometimes drifting away.

"I haven't been to Najiu Mountain like this for a long time at night."

After hearing Jiang Yuanshen's whisper, Jinghai Shenyue walked forward slowly, her knees pushed the skirt, and the soles of her shoes tapped on the stone steps, making a bang bang sound.

"Yao Xing didn't accompany you?"

"No, it's just that I can't find the fun of going up the mountain at night."

——If you want to go up the mountain to play at night, Shake Xing will definitely follow you without saying a word.

"Hey, even in the past, I couldn't find the joy of going up the mountain at night."

Her timbre extends infinitely in the dark night, very clear and transparent.

The sneakers rubbed against the slate, making a whining sound.

When I came to the torii gate of Zhiniao Shrine, the moonlight made the blossoming blue come into view.

"Go in?" Jinghai Shenyue stood in front of the torii gate and glanced at him calmly.

"Otherwise what am I doing here?"

Probably because of nervousness, in order to suppress the nervousness, Jiang Yuanshen took deep breaths repeatedly,
"Speaking of which, Jing Hai, who would you pay for?"

He stepped out of the words and walked into Zhidiao Shrine.

Jinghai Shenyue followed immediately, Liu Mei frowned slightly and said, "What is for whom?"

"It's like a friend, or someone you like, or a family member." Jiang Yuanshen walked up the stone stairs that were one step too far and two steps too small.

Jinghai Shenyue knew that he was diverting his attention, but she still became seriously troubled, with slight wrinkles on her beautiful brows.

"Sorry. I haven't thought about this kind of thing. If I have to say it, so far, I have only paid for myself."

Jiang Yuanshen smiled disapprovingly, his crystal bright eyes reflected the face of Jinghai Shenyue.

"I will, even if I give everything, I will."

He spoke with confidence, beyond doubt.

That smile made Jinghai Shenyue temporarily forget to breathe, thinking that he might be serious, for some reason, her chest throbbed.

The lungs were obviously filled with the night's waking air, but every now and then a prickly, pain-like sensation passed by.

Jinghai Shenyue's heart was beating rapidly, and her breath was also accelerating, condensing all her attention.

The word "everything" exudes a shocking sense of oppression, which makes her lower her head and bite her lips tightly.

◇

In front of Zhiniao Shrine, there is a cold silence, as if there is a door in front of you, which cannot be closed.

"The door is open." Jinghai Shenyue kept staring into the shrine.

"You have the key, right? Let's go directly to the main hall."

Walking into the shrine, the lights at the entrance suddenly turned on, as if they were destined not to miss a certain train, but the two stopped in their tracks.

Standing on the approach is Igarashi stealing paper.

In the dim light of the lantern, there was no emotion in his eyes.

"Jiang Yuan, come here after hard work."

His tone was very gentle, full of comforting warmth, he squeezed out a smile like daytime, but tightened his facial muscles the next second, looked at Jinghai Shenyue in confusion and said,
"But why did Queen Jinghai come here? Do you think we will hurt Jiang Yuan?"

"No such thing." Jinghai Shenyue replied decisively, "It's just that he has been entangled in wanting me to come, so I choose to come with him. I don't think it's good to reject him. Jiang Yuan is a good person."

Even though he knew that she might be joking, Jiang Yuanshen was in no mood to joke at the moment.

"Mr. Igarashi, why me?"

After listening to the paper, Igarashi covered his face sadly, showing a resigned expression and said:
"Jiang Yuan, do you still remember what I told you? It is correct to sacrifice the individual for the sake of the collective. Freedom is simply vulnerable. You have come now, so you can go to the main hall for details. She is waiting you."

The corners of Igarashi's eyes flashed red and blue, and he took a few steps sideways to let the two of them pass by.

When passing by him, he faintly heard whispered words——

"The chick girl is not my daughter Hanasa"

Jiang Yuanshen suddenly woke up and looked up at Igarashi stealing the paper, but he just lowered his head, unable to see the expression on his face clearly.

I understand that the chick girl is not Huasha, but other than that, who else is she?
Not Jinghai Shenyue beside her, nor Yejian Xunshi, on this island, who else can become a doll girl who is connected with the doll god?
Perhaps because of the confusion on Jiang Yuanshen's face, Jinghai Shenyue took the initiative to ask, "What's wrong?"

"I saw a girl wearing a puppet mask in the shrine, but I never knew who she was."

Jinghai Shenyue was a little puzzled, put her hand on her small chin and said: "It stands to reason that there is only one puppet girl, who else can there be besides me? Or are they all wearing masks?"

"I don't know either." Jiang Yuanshen smiled awkwardly.

The two faced each other silently for a while, and finally came to the deepest part of the shrine, where the main hall is located.

The main hall, which is backed by Najiu Mountain, is several times smaller than the worship hall, like a small boxy house located deep in the shrine. The maple trees on both sides are growing vigorously, and the tiled roof is covered with fallen leaves.

Under the eaves, there is a wooden plaque of "Puppet" with gold letters and blue background.

This is a place where no one can easily enter or leave, and it is the place where the gods live.

On both sides of the entrance, there are human-high stone dolls.

At this moment, through the thin paper window, we can see the faint light emitting from the inside.

Just standing under the stairs, just seeing the small main hall and the light, my heart is beating non-stop.

At this moment, Jinghai Shenyue clenched his hand tightly, and there was a cool touch on the skin.

"I am fine."

He took the initiative to let go of her hand.

"it is good."

Sweat was wet in the palms of Jiang Yuanshen's tightly clenched hands, the soft darkness was fainting inside the eyelids, and the breathing of Jinghai Shenyue standing aside was clearly imprinted in his ears.

She took out the key, it was a very simple key, the gap was not complicated.

"With this key, can I go in?" Jiang Yuanshen asked.

"Yeah." Jinghai Shenyue's fingers lightly rubbed the lines of the key, looked at him and said, "You really want to do this?"

"It's already here, it would be too shameless to turn around and run." Jiang Yuanshen said with a wry smile, "Do you want to go in with me?"

"Yes, because I don't know what will happen." Jinghai Shenyue's long eyelashes trembled like butterfly wings, and a voice like a silver bell rolled in her throat, "I also want to take a few more glances."

Before Jiang Yuanshen's brain had time to think about it, his feet had already followed Jinghai Shenyue forward, stepping up the stairs of the main hall step by step.

The key was inserted into the socket of the door leaf, but Jinghai Shenyue found that the door was not locked.

With a slight push, the door opened.

She opened her eyes wide in surprise, her lips, which were always tightly pressed into a line, were slightly bent down, and her snow-white and transparent skin was slightly stained with a blush.Jiang Yuanshen understood that she was also nervous.

Inside the main hall is an ordinary tatami room.

However, under the dim light, you can see dozens of "Puppet Queen" stands against the wall in front of the gold screen made of gold leaf.

On each of the seven-story puppet racks, there are dolls from top to bottom——

The emperor and his wife are placed on the first floor, the court ladies on the second floor, musicians on the third floor, guards on the fourth floor, attendants on the fifth floor, sedan chairs, dressing mirrors, Fans and other living objects.

Every puppet object is extremely well-made, with luxurious dyeing, embroidery and metalwork visible to the naked eye, and the clothes are gorgeous and exquisite.

Jiang Yuanshen had never entered the worship hall of Zhiniao Shrine. At this moment, the countless Hina dolls in front of him made him swallow.

In particular, the queen dolls of various ages are extremely delicate.

According to Igarashi's stolen paper, basically no one would enter the hall, but there is not even a fine dust here.

"that's me?"

Just at the right time, Jinghai Shenyue beside her made a trembling voice, staring blankly at one of the doll stands.

Jiang Yuanshen followed her line of sight, and saw a particularly eye-catching name under the Queen's Hina doll on the top of the Hina doll stand——

"Sea of ​​Tranquility and Deep Moon"

The minds of the two were distorted by the scene in front of them, like hot glass being cooled and solidified into a strange shape.

Jinghai Shenyue stared at the Hina doll stand in front of her with sympathy in her bright black eyes.

"The shadow of Anjixiang mountain, I cast myself into the mountain well, my shallow heart is like a shallow well, it's not my chest—"

When the two of them stood still in place, the gentle and soft singing voice seemed to be hidden in the queen's mouth, gently flowing into the ear of the two, shaking the eardrums.

Jiang Yuanshen peeped his eyes along the direction of the singing, and saw Yami Xunshige sitting on the tatami at some time, with a "Emperor" Hina doll in his arms.

Her carefully painted red nails and carefully trimmed eyebrows all show a feminine posture.

And beside Yemi Xunshiro, stood the doll girl whom Jiang Yuanshen saw in the shrine earlier and told him to leave quickly.

The puppet girl was like a statue at this moment, motionless.

Jinghai Shenyue's eyes were trembling uncontrollably, and her seemingly soft mouth moved meaninglessly like a goldfish.

She can understand that the Yoshihiro Yomi in front of her is just a body, but the soul in it is "the god of Chitori Island".

Yemi Xunshio's eyes were blurred, and his slender white fingers gently stroked the face of the Hina doll:
"Women are too weak, even if they are beautiful, they can't choose to keep them. Sure enough, it is better to be a man."

"Is that Jiangyuan's Hina doll?" Jinghai Shenyue looked blankly at the Hina doll in her arms, and said, "You want him to replace my mother?"

Ye Jian Xunshio hugged the Hina doll tightly involuntarily, a cold light flashed across his face, and stared straight at the quiet sea and deep moon:

"You are as selfish as your mother, and naturally you need a better candidate."

Then when she looked at Jiang Yuanshen, her expression changed, and it immediately changed into a warm smiling face like a spring flower field.

"Xiao Shen, I like you so much, you can do whatever you want on the island in the future, as long as you can make up for all the regrets that happened on the island, become the first "emperor" of Zhiniao Island, and stay with me forever Together. "

Her voice is clear and transparent like musical notes, and it is like the spring breeze left in the past floating in the house, which will bring new green without knowing it.

It was so wonderful that Jiang Yuanshen suddenly had a sense of mission without foundation, telling him to take up this responsibility and promise her.

"I"

"What does it mean to be the first "Emperor" of Chitori Island? Jinghai Shenyue looked at her slender eyelashes vibrating up and down, and the light outlined a slender outline.

"I don't need you, just stay Xiao Shen." Yejian Xunzhi looked at Jiang Yuanshen's eyes full of enthusiasm and determination, "As long as Xiao Shen promises me, you can leave at any time."

Not only Jiang Yuanshen was stunned, but even Jinghai Shenyue's breathing was half a beat slow.

How could they not know the "deal" proposed by the "God".

As long as she promises, Jiang Yuanshen will become the "emperor" of Zhiniao Island.

From then on, the "Queen" will no longer exist because of Jiang Yuanshen, Jinghai Shenyue will be free, and she will be able to leave Zhiniao Island without causing an earthquake and live the life she wants.

Instead, Jiang Yuanshen will be trapped on Zhiniao Island forever.

Mud-like viscous emotions rushed into Jiang Yuanshen's heart relentlessly, making him grit his teeth and make his throat feel hot.

"I don't like to force, so Xiaoshen, if you are willing, I will put the Hina doll that I made specially for you." Yejian Xunzhi's eyes twinkled like stars.

Jinghai Shenyue's shoulders trembled up and down with the disordered breathing, her cherry red lips opened and closed, and she made a strange sound that was almost whining:

"I won't leave, student Jiang Yuan, let's go."

Her hand tightly grasped Jiang Yuanshen's arm, but he stood still like a statue.

"Jiang Yuan?"

Jinghai Shenyue made a thin sound between her teeth, and then, hearing Jiang Yuanshen's words made her eyes shake violently.

"Can I have the power to go back to the past?"

Jiang Yuanshen's deep words hit Jinghai Shenyue's eardrums hard, and his serious thinking made her gasp.

Yomi Hiroshio gently stroked the Hina doll's head and said:

"Yes, but I will not allow the earthquake that year not to happen."

"why?"

"There is no reason, there is always a price to be paid"

She looked at Jiang Yuanshen, her eyes narrowed softly,

"But what does it matter to you? As long as it goes well, your sister can survive the earthquake, Chaokong Yaoxing's mother can avoid sudden death at work, and Yaoxing can live a life with you, everyone will be happy because of you."

"She's bewitching you." Jinghai Shenyue approached Jiang Yuanshen and said solemnly, "Don't be fascinated by her words, we don't know if she is here."

"What about you, Jinghai?"

Jiang Yuanshen glanced at her suddenly.

"I?"

"Will you go back to five years ago for me?"

Seeing his serious expression, Jinghai Shenyue felt that her fingertips suddenly became cold, her throat was tight, and she was suddenly speechless.

"Xiao Shen, after all, she always thought that you would give up and help her, otherwise she would have gone back to five years ago for you."

Yemi Xunshiro narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in a clear and calm tone,
"She's as selfish as her mother, you're helping the wrong person."

In front of her was a very unpleasant scene for Jinghai Shenyue. The person in her mother's skin said something that made her feel angry.

Seeing that she didn't respond, Jiang Yuan smiled wryly and said, "I can only rely on myself, I can do anything."

"Okay, I can." Jinghai Shenyue stared straight at his face and said in a firm tone, "If you want to go back, you can do it now."
