One Piece: Heart Set Sail

Chapter 76 Playing her life

The slight swing of the swing brought down pieces of leaves, and a few fell at Xue Heluo's feet. The only sound left in the yard was the squeaking sound of the swing swinging.Yulu's originally dull eyes moved slowly from the ground, and finally stopped on the two of them.

Xue was a little shocked. Could she see herself and Luo?After the two fell asleep, they could feel that no one around them could see them, but they didn't expect that Yulu could see them, and she didn't show any discomfort before.

"Boy, how much longer do you want to watch?"

"You, you can see us, and you thought that no one would notice it." Xue felt a little embarrassed.

Yulu snorted lightly but did not respond. She looked at the two of them for a few seconds and said leisurely: "Want Pahua Xianlu?"

Luo was really rude: "You know? You created this place. Those people outside said that the way to get the fairy dew is to resolve your obsession, so what is it?"

"Why should I tell you? If you want to understand, see for yourself. If you can't see it, you will always be in this illusion." There was no emotion on Yulu's face, as if she was just saying something insignificant: "Otherwise, You two should live such a life again, don't worry, time flows much slower outside the illusion than inside, I want to see, what choices will you make?"

As soon as Yulu finished speaking, Xue felt like the world was spinning. After a while, she found herself lying on a bed and sitting up, surrounded by a strange environment. There were only a handful of objects in the room, and everything looked very simple. .

"Brother Luo? Brother Luo?" Xue didn't see Luo and tried calling a few times, but no one responded. She felt bad for a moment and she and Luo were separated.

The shadow of Yulu appeared in front of him: "You don't have to look for it, you will see him. Follow my life path. I want to see, if it were you, how would you make a decision? I want to know why those people in the past couldn't live without each other." Do you want to open it? Because their decisions are not what I like."

Xue nodded and responded: "Okay, I will walk through your life as you asked, but you must also keep your promise. If I make the right choice, you will give us the fairy dew to let us leave the illusion."

"It's a word."

The afterimage of Jade Dew disappeared, and Xue looked around the room. There were many books on the bookshelf not far away. She took out one at random and flipped through it. All of them turned out to be medical books.Although there were a lot of words that I couldn't understand, the pictures above were something I had learned from Xiaochan. There was a lot of knowledge in them, which made Xue wish she could move all these books back to the Polar Diver.

There was a knock on the door, and there was a lot of noise outside the room. Someone was scolding at the door: "How long do you want to sleep, Miss? Have you finished copying the scriptures that Madam asked you to copy yesterday? It's almost three o'clock in the morning, why haven't you seen Miss? Send Mrs. In the courtyard, I had no choice but to ask my maid to come and have a look."

Xue opened the door in confusion, and three or five middle-aged women rushed in. They didn't seem to be respectful, but had a bossy attitude: "Miss, were you lazy last night? It seems that she didn't take Madam's words to heart. Come on."

For unknown reasons, Xue remained silent and looked at these people. This was different from what she had seen before. At that time, although the busy servants did not speak to Yulu, their attitude towards her was not so yelling.

"I forgot to copy the scriptures that Madam mentioned, but shouldn't you also change your attitude when talking to me?"

"Hey, the sun is out in the west today?" A maid glanced at Xue with disdain: "Why don't you usually see the young lady so tough? I guess it's because you feel unhappy that the madam asked you to copy the book. The young lady said she forgot Of course, the maids don’t dare to say anything, so please come with us to the lady’s courtyard to talk.”

Following the twists and turns of the maidservants, Xue was also thinking secretly in her heart, wondering how Luo is doing now, and whether he has also appeared as a certain character that Yulu has encountered in his entire life. I hope he is safe now. .

The lady the maid mentioned was sitting in the courtyard leisurely sipping tea. She didn't even raise her eyes when the snow came: "I heard that you are very dissatisfied with the punishment I asked you to copy books."

"I forgot." Xue just said, she felt that if it was Yulu, it was more likely that there would be no response.

"Forgot?" Madam glanced sideways: "In that case, copying books is not suitable for me, so I will kneel here until sunset."

Xue was speechless. Ganqing had asked her to come over and be punished by kneeling. She instantly remembered her experience of being punished by kneeling in Dressrosa. She couldn't help but whisper in a low voice: "How come history is always so strikingly similar?"

"What did the young lady say?" The lady stood up and said, "I am not in the mood to accompany the young lady here, so let the maids help you count the hours."

"Count your sisters! Count them yourself!" Still couldn't help but swear: "When Jia Lishan bullied me, I was too young and couldn't resist, so who are you?" After saying that, Xue picked up the wood on the side. The stool is ready to be waved towards the servant's heavenly spirit cap.

The magical thing is that in the next second, everything around him disappeared. After a white light flashed in front of the snow, he returned to the time when he first entered the courtyard. The lady was still sitting in the courtyard drinking tea without raising her eyes.

How is this going?Xue didn't understand until she heard the voice from Yulu in her mind: "Remember, I only have one decision for you to make, and you can't change the rest."

Xue also laughed angrily. It turned out that she was just a conscious body in this illusion, and she couldn't even bring in fruit abilities. Otherwise, she would really plan to give these people a blast: "Are you so cowardly and let them bully you?"

"I don't care."

With a helpless sigh, when the lady said that she would kneel down until sunset, she knelt down helplessly, and she didn't know how many times she had greeted Yulu in her heart.Didn’t I say it’s a conscious body?Why can I still feel pain in my knees?

The flow of time in the illusion is much faster than outside, but Xue and Luo inside it cannot feel it. For Xue, she is literally kneeling until the sunset.When the time came, the maids dispersed, and Xue herself was so numb that she couldn't stand up.

"It's so disgusting, ouch." Covering her knees, Xue finally stood up, but couldn't move.

A pair of hands came around from behind her and lifted her up. Xue was really startled. When she looked up, it was Luo. Xue, who had a sad look on her face, was instantly happy: "Brother Luo, where have you been? Are you okay?"

"It's okay. Does your knee hurt?"

"Well, I've been kneeling for too long." Xue said helplessly.

Returning to the simple yard before, Luo carefully placed Xue on the bed and checked her knees.The light-colored skirt was stained by dust from kneeling on the ground, and Xue's knees were red and swollen. Luo frowned and got some water to help her wipe it gently: "I didn't expect that I couldn't use my abilities here, and I was even more passive than ordinary people. .”

Xue sighed, that's right. It doesn't matter if he can't use his abilities. He can't even resist at the most basic level and can only suffer. This feeling of frustration is annoying.After watching Luo busy for a long time, Xue pulled him to sit by the bed: "Brother Luo, Yulu said that as long as we can make the decision she thinks is right, we can leave successfully, and now I am equivalent to playing her role, how about you?"

Luo Momo spoke about his experience for a while. After that ray of light, he also went to a strange place, but it was like a colosseum, with many people fighting each other. He couldn't find Xue, guessing that Xue was not there. Leaving can only become the only one who can survive in the end, so Luo started a bloody storm there.When he wanted to leave, another light flashed and he suddenly appeared at the door of the house. A servant said that Yulu had been punished, so Luo wanted to see what was going on and maybe find Xue, so he came over.

"So, Brother Luo, your current role is also someone who has appeared in Yulu's life, and she said that except for the most important choice, other decisions cannot be changed. In other words, now you take care of me, in fact This person is taking care of Yulu, right?”

Luo also agreed with Xue's statement, nodded and said: "But until now I don't know who I am playing, and no one has called this person by his name."

"If we look carefully, we will definitely know. How about we first see if there are any clues in this room? I heard that in the Central Plains, men are not allowed to enter women's rooms casually. If you can come in, it means that your role must be the same as Yulu's. It’s related.”

"Ah."

Xue's legs and feet were inconvenient, so she could only look at the bed, but she was disappointed to find nothing.After searching the entire room, Luo finally focused on a pot of flowers beside the bed: "There seems to be something on the flower pot."

"Let me take a look." Xue carefully groped the side of the flower pot, and there seemed to be words engraved on it: "Sure enough, there is!"

"Do you know these words?"

"I don't seem to recognize them all." Xue felt regretful again. Why didn't she learn more from Xiaochan?Otherwise, the current situation cannot be like looking at flowers in the smoke.But I still tried hard to piece it together in my mind: "Jin, Jade... I only know these two, alas."

"I'll copy it and ask others."

"we can only do this."

Luo left the room with the copied paper and came back after a long time.Putting the orchid back on the window sill, Luo sat next to Xue and unfolded the paper: "This is a poem, the golden wind and the jade dew meet each other."

"Is there Yulu's name in it?" I finally got a clue: "Meet each other? Who is meeting whom? Jinfeng and Yulu? Brother Luo, maybe your name is Jinfeng?"

"Well, it's possible."

It was getting late, and the two people's hard work this day was not in vain. There was always something to gain.There was a cushion behind Xue, and Luo was sitting next to her. She unconsciously leaned on his shoulder.Since the Joey incident, she has not been able to get along with Luo so calmly for a long time: "Brother Luo, will you blame me?"

"Ok?"

"That's right, I hid Sister Joey's affairs from you. I know I shouldn't be so selfish." She hugged Luo's arm and tightened her grip: "The other day I saw Sister Joey blocking the poisoned dart for you. , I regret hiding it from you even more, she is also one of us, she has been very pitiful these years."

"I didn't blame you." He really didn't blame her. He already knew what Xue was thinking.In fact, he was also troubled by this situation. He had also asked himself whether he still loved Joey, but he felt like he could no longer treat her like before. Something had changed.But I was sorry for what happened back then. If she doesn't do something to protect her this time, how can she repay her?This is one of the reasons why he must come and go to Xianlu.

"Now that we have rescued Joey, she will also be everyone's partner in the future. Xiaoxue, you don't have to worry about this matter." Luo wanted to tell Xue that he positioned Joey as a partner, but the words came to his lips. And ambiguous, because he can't promise anything to Xue.

"Well, it's good to know that you're not angry with me. I won't think about it."
