Well of Mystery

The plant residues that sank to the bottom of the water spread out little by little in the clear water, but the flowers and leaves that had discolored due to oxidation did not seem to have undergone any obvious changes.Jiang Chenglu whispered a few words into the cup, and the next moment, the water in the cup suddenly began to spin rapidly, and the plant residue seemed to be put into a miniature washing machine. When the spinning stopped, the liquid had already been stained. A faint yellow.

"Try." Jiang Chenglu signaled Bai Xiuqi to soak his fingers in the water glass.

"How long will it take?" Bai Xiuqi obeyed obediently, realizing that he was being stupid again as soon as the question came out.

"I don't know either." Jiang Chenglu shrugged and scratched his hair again: "It's not a solution for you to keep on like this, I will read a spell for you, no matter how you move, the water in the glass will It won't shake out, so you can sleep peacefully."

As he said that, he was about to touch the glass of water that Bai Xiuqi was holding, but he was rejected.

"Wait, I seem to know how to use this little spell, let me try it."

After speaking, Bai Xiuqi murmured a few words to the glass of water, and then took another breath.After a while, he turned his fingers carefully and tilted the water glass down little by little, and the water in it didn't spill out like a gel.

"Easier than I thought."

Bai Xiuqi shook the upside-down cup in front of Jiang Chenglu, quite proud of it.

"Good job." Jiang Chenglu kissed his hair: "But I also have a little credit."

"How to say?"

"Because I gave you something of mine." Jiang Chenglu grinned maliciously.

"..."

After reacting, Bai Xiuqi blushed and walked to the bathroom with a water glass.

------

Because of this sudden discovery, the drowsiness that should have been accumulated bit by bit has now disappeared.Putting on her clothes again, Bai Xiuqi began to walk around the room with the glass of water, taking out her fingers every few minutes to check the situation.

Jiang Chenglu was also driven to his own bed.The initial excitement had passed, and now he was yawning boredly with his head on one hand.

"I regret telling you about this discovery now. Anyway, I should wait until after dawn."

"Stop talking nonsense!" Bai Xiuqi looked a little anxious because of excitement, and after walking a few steps, she suddenly turned her head to look at Jiang Chenglu: "Do you think we should tell Huayang now?"

"Wait. At least until you have the results of this experiment."

So, Bai Xiuqi continued to walk around the room with the cup, until Jiang Chenglu couldn't bear it anymore, walked over, hugged him and threw him on the bed.

"Don't move! Go to sleep!"

It's summer, and it's still on the humid seashore. It should have been an uncomfortable thing for two big men to hug each other.However, at this moment, Jiang Chenglu's low body temperature made people feel quite comfortable.Bai Xiuqi moved twice and was warned, so he had no choice but to close his eyes unwillingly.

After he managed to calm down, physical fatigue soon followed, and Bai Xiuqi didn't know when he fell asleep, anyway, Jiang Chenglu was no longer by his side when he regained consciousness.

There is no one on the next bed, where did you go in the middle of the night?

Bai Xiuqi got up quickly, and then remembered the experiment in his hand.He hurriedly turned on the light and found that the water glass was still in his hand. He took out his fingers and moved it, his eyes widened.

Sure enough, it has changed.

Perhaps it is because the amount of plant juice is not enough, so the changes on the fingers are not obvious, but compared with the surrounding skin, the feel is still enough to distinguish.Bai Xiuqi laughed, he knew he could tell Huayang now.

At this time, Jiang Chenglu suddenly came in from the balcony: "Turn off the lights, turn off the lights!"

Bai Xiuqi was a little puzzled, but she quickly turned off the bedside lamp.The room returned to darkness again, only the faint light from the moon or the lighthouse came through in the distance, casting Jiang Chenglu's tall back on the floor-to-ceiling curtains.

"what happened?"

Bai Xiuqi walked over quickly and asked in a low voice, and Jiang Chenglu immediately pointed to the southwest direction of the island.

In the second half of the night, everything was quiet on Rose Fire Island, and even the night market in the south had died down, but the sea breeze had increased a lot, roaring and circling over the island.And above the cliff extending to the sea in the southwest, near the old lighthouse, there are a few small lights shining in the darkness.

The light is moving, it is several people.

"What's the situation?" Bai Xiuqi asked again: "Can you see who these people are?"

"Please, I'm not clairvoyant either. Besides, it's a dark place under the lamp, who can see clearly." Jiang Chenglu muttered, then grabbed Bai Xiuqi's hand and touched it.

"Well, it seems to be working. It seems that this plant is indeed useful. What's it called?"

"Nine-color flowers. But we have been on the island for almost two days, and we have only seen this kind of flower in Huang Xiuqi's hands. I am afraid it is not so easy to find."

Jiang Chenglu wasn't worried: "Did Huang Xiuqi say that she knew there was a place full of nine-color flowers? Just ask her if it's okay?"

"How to ask?" Bai Xiuqi smiled: "I saw her being sent away by Huang Xiangyuan's boat in the afternoon. Did you leave her mobile phone number?"

"How dare I." Jiang Chenglu replied flatteringly, "What's the big deal, ask her father for a cell phone number tomorrow?"

"If you were a father, if someone asked you for your daughter's mobile phone number, would you give it to me?"

"I'll beat him to death!" Jiang Chenglu raised his fist.

"It's a pity that you won't have this chance in your life." Bai Xiuqi looked at him coldly, and then turned the topic back to the right way: "I can draw the general appearance of this plant, and then use it to identify other people on the island , I believe there will be an answer soon.”

"Hey, the kid is still fucking smart." Jiang Chenglu laughed twice, still not forgetting to ask for a cheap talk.

Bai Xiuqi didn't intend to argue with him, and turned around to go back to the house to get a pen and paper.At this time, there was a sudden scream from a distance in the darkness, and then everything returned to calm.

what's the situation? !

He turned his head back in horror, and found that Jiang Chenglu had pointed out the direction of the sound for him—it was still the lighthouse, and the lights that appeared on the edge of the lighthouse just now suddenly began to move rapidly in the same direction.

Why are those people running?Bai Xiuqi saw that Monk Zhang Er was confused, and Jiang Chenglu on one side also frowned slightly, not knowing why.

They stood on the balcony for a while, and found that some lights ran towards the bottom of the cliff, while others ran further away. Bai Xiuqi vaguely remembered that it should be the staff dormitory under Huang Xiangyuan's hands.

After another few minutes, the noisy sound came from a distance, and more lights poured out from the dormitory, running in unison to meet the lights on the other side.

"Something happened." Jiang Chenglu said, "It should be under the cliff, right? I think someone just fell down."

Bai Xiuqi slapped the railing: "Has Huang Xiangyuan made a move?"

"I don't know, should we go and have a look?"

"Don't." Bai Xiuqi shook his head neatly: "We are just tourists, and it would be strange to rush there in the middle of the night to join in the fun. Besides, if someone really falls, we can't help, so don't worry about it."

"……it is good."

Jiang Chenglu nodded, and the two of them stood on the balcony and watched for a while, only to feel that the sea breeze became stronger and stronger one after another, and the wind direction changed from north to south, and then water droplets began to float down from the sky again.

"It looks like a typhoon is really coming."

Said that Jiang Chenglu was about to walk into the house with his arms around Bai Xiuqi's shoulders, and suddenly the two of them turned their heads quickly at the same time.

"You heard that too?!" Jiang Chenglu's eyes widened, and Bai Xiuqi immediately nodded affirmatively.

It was a "not-like-sound," similar to a horn but deeper, and undeniably creepy.

The two immediately began to search for the source of the sound, and quickly turned their attention to the large ruins to the south of the balcony.All of a sudden, blue-green flames sprang up in the countless dark and dead abandoned huts!

"This is...?!" Bai Xiuqi could hardly believe his eyes, he blinked, and couldn't help but look at Jiang Chenglu next to him.

"Well, this is a flash explosion phenomenon." Jiang Chenglu confirmed that this was not just Bai Xiuqi's hallucination: "The remaining resentment was ignited by something, forming a strange phenomenon similar to the aurora. But ordinary people generally cannot see it. "

Sure enough, the spots of light below the cliff to the northwest didn't seem to have moved significantly.

The strange green light formed by the flash of resentment is fading little by little, and soon there is only a faint halo left, like a blue-green mist covering the waste.Bai Xiuqi frowned watching this strange scene, completely unable to understand how it happened.

At this time, Jiang Chenglu suddenly shook his shoulder again: "Look over there, the sea, look!"

Bai Xiuqi narrowed his eyes.The air quality before the typhoon came was indeed good, and he was soon stunned to see a huge hazy black shadow forming little by little on the sea about a few hundred meters away from the shore.

"...a mirage?"

He couldn't help thinking of the huge photo he saw in the island history exhibition room this afternoon.How similar is the mirage at night captured by the camera to the scene in front of you? !

However, just looking at that photo, he still couldn't intuitively realize that this black shadow was so huge, it was like a small island, appearing like a ghost on the turbulent sea.

A feeling of panic quietly grew in the bottom of Bai Xiuqi's heart, and he couldn't help but grab Jiang Chenglu's arm.It was also at this tug that Bai Xiuqi noticed that Jiang Chenglu was also in a daze. He widened his eyes and looked at the mirage in the distance, and there was a faint golden color in the depths of his eyes.

"Did you feel it?" He asked without turning his head: "There is an unusually powerful aura in the direction of the mirage."

"..."

Bai Xiuqi froze for a moment, and then began to pay attention to the situation around him.

Although he didn't know what the "spiritual feeling" Jiang Chenglu was talking about was, the moment he started to pay attention, he did feel a "scary" feeling that could not be described in words. thing.
