Abyss Notes [Unlimited]

Immediately after dismounting from his horse, the young man called "King" was surrounded by crowds.People were respectful and eager, and countless hands stretched out to touch the young man, but no one dared to really touch him.

He was obviously used to such things, facing such a carnival feast and fanatics, there was no surprise on his face.Pushing aside the crowd, he walked in front of Yu Zhou and the others through the messy clothes, wine glasses and food all over the floor.

"Adventurer?" He seemed to be asking a question, but didn't need any answer. "Welcome to my kingdom."

The guard brought a scroll, and the young man took it and handed it to Yu Zhou.There is also a rose flower on the wax seal of the scroll.

To be honest, Yu Zhou was very unaccustomed to such ostentation, he always felt as if he was on a film set, and what he saw, heard, and felt were all exaggerated live dramas.

The young man in front of him is called "King". Is he the cage master?

The young man didn't stay for long, and didn't say a word more.After he handed the scroll to Yu Zhou, he took the seat that had been vacant on Feixing Cliff.

Yu Zhou was too nervous just now, he didn't notice that there was a large seat made of ivory at the most suitable position for watching flying stars.The seat is covered with soft tiger skin, and the young man sits on the chair with a relaxed posture. "Go on." He motioned for people to serve him nectar and fine wine, "Let Flying Star Cliff light up again."

The carnival feast continued.The young people drank, talked and laughed, and people stopped looking for fun on their own. They gathered around the young people, knelt on the ground, and looked up at the young people.

There is piety in their eyes, but not completely piety.In the crazy carnival, in the enjoyment and joy without borders, there is unspeakable fear hidden.

Jiang Xiao slipped back: "I'm hungry, I want to eat meat."

Yu Zhou: "...do you have anything to say?"

Jiang Xiao: "What did you say?" She threw the wine jug in her hand, and the wine spilled all over the floor.

Yu Zhou: "This man says he is a king and this is his kingdom."

Jiang Xiao laughed: "Some cage owners even make 'birdcages' into imperial palaces, where adventurers go in, women as concubines and men as eunuchs, and you have to bow to him three times and nine times if you can't say a few words, long live long live. "

Yu Zhou: "..."

Jiang Xiao grabbed a large piece of meat with each of his left and right hands: "It's called emperor's cancer, and it's really rare and strange for you."

The men who followed Jiang Xiao and had a long experience admired her very much.Seeing that no one was paying attention here, everyone got some food and left.Fan Xing and Yugan were reluctant to leave, pretending to be innocent and ignorant to watch others pester them, and finally Yu Zhou and Liu Yingnian snatched them away one by one.

On the way, when Yu Zhou talked about the house, Jiang Xiao made a decisive decision: "That house can't be lived in."

Back in front of the house, the rose vines that had been quiet began to stir again.Liu Yingnian yelled, rushed back to the house and took out his backpack.

His backpack was bulging, and the dried fish was scurrying around to see: "What kind of treasure is it in? Even such a big flower monster can't stop you."

When I opened it, I saw a bag full of expired biscuits and expired bread.

Yugan: "...you might as well eat me."

Fortunately, he was already full from the meat just now, and Jiang Xiao took the food reserve again. Now the only question left is where to live.

The fisherman hat put his hat on: "Think about it for yourself, I have found a place to live."

Yu Zhou remembered that this person never seemed to live with them.

Jiang Xiao didn't let him go this time: "This place is so dangerous, don't leave."

Yu Zhou: "...Then why did you leave me and Fan Xing in the house just now?"

Yugan rushed to answer: "You still have me!"

Yu Zhou: "What's the use of you!"

A group of people were noisy, and even the fisherman's hat couldn't stop them. They were pushed and shoved by the crowd, so they had to be taken to their resting place.

There is a small forest on the outside of the rose flower field, and a wide river flows through it.There is a small stone house by the river. It has no windows and is clean enough to keep out the wind and rain.

Everyone walked into the stone house and looked left and right as if they had entered their own house. Liu Yingnian said nonsense: "This house has good Fengshui. It faces the river and is protected by water dragons. The mountain is on the opposite side of the river. It is a barrier between heaven and earth. Eliminate disasters and prevent disasters."

Jiang Xiao and Liu Yingnian chose their seats, and Liu Yingnian took out the candle from his pocket, which he just picked up in the room.Yu Zhou asked Fan Xing if he wanted to sleep by the door or inside.The fisherman's hat became angry again: "This is my place, get out of here."

No one paid attention to him, he hesitated and hesitated, and finally sat down at the door by himself.

Most of the night has passed, and the east is faintly showing the thin light of the sun.

There are birds fluttering over the cliffs, the wind brings the fragrance of roses, and there is the sound of water in the river, which is the splashing of small fish.

The feast on Flying Star Cliff was still going on, and the lights and voices could hardly be heard from far away.

The puppy came with them, curled up next to Fan Xing to sleep, put its paws on Fan Xing, as if hugging him.

The scroll that the young man gave was an invitation card, the parchment was exquisite and beautiful, and there was a string of ghostly characters on the paper, none of which Yu Zhou could understand.

Liu Yingnian came over and took a quick look: "He invited us to the engagement banquet to be held in the palace in a month's time."

The fisherman's hat couldn't stand being bitten by mosquitoes outside, and finally got in. The room was full of people, and it seemed lively. "Are we going to stay here for another month?"

Jiang Xiao was holding the little fish, observing its bones by the candlelight. "It's so nice here, I can stay for a year." She said, "And there are so many handsome guys."

While everyone was chatting, Yu Zhou secretly took out the Diary of the Abyss from his clothes.However, there is still no hint in the notes.

Fan Xing lay on the ground looking at him.Yu Zhou looked at him, then at the puppy. "It's protecting you." Yu Zhou said.

Fan Xing closed his eyes: "It's a dog, how can it protect me. I'm bigger than it."

Yu Zhou: "Maybe it likes you."

Gouzi's ears moved slightly in his sleep.Fan Xing stopped talking and hugged the puppy.

Fan Xing and the puppy became friends.A small person, a small animal, running around playing around during the day, and sleeping together in the arms at night.

Every time he sees Fan Xing playing innocently, Yu Zhou always thinks of what Jiang Xiao said - people who enter the "birdcage" will not change their form, and they will always be that age at whatever age they come in. What was then will always be.

But Fan Xing was an exception.

Why is he an exception?How is he different from them? Can't the rules of "Birdcage" limit him?Or has the cage owner of this "birdcage" devised more powerful rules that override the basic laws of the "birdcage"?

Although Yugan was awakened by Yu Zhou, it always haunts Fan Xing.Wherever Fan Xing went, it followed him, one man and one fish always quarreled.

From Yu Zhou's point of view, the dried fish was also very suspicious.

In Wujiao Town, Mr. Gu is looking for death, so he designed a puzzle that can only be left by killing the cage owner. ——He will never set up a loophole and let dried fish become the core of solving the problem.

But Chen Liang and Chen Yi only knew that there was a whirlpool in the sea, but they didn't know what was under the whirlpool.

Yu Zhou had a guess: the dried fish, or that huge black fish-shaped skeleton, was not something from the "birdcage" in Wujiao Town.

It exists outside the "birdcage", some kind of power that the cage owner cannot control.

"Yu Zhou, I want to see our house." Fan Xing ran over with the dog in his arms.

Yu Zhou was interrupted by him, "Then you go."

They will stay here for a month. Jiang Xiao finds people to play with every day, and Liu Yingnian follows the residents to study how to plant, harvest and process rose flowers.The fisherman's hat has never been seen, and at night he comes back with rabbits and pheasants.

Only Yu Zhou, who was restrained by Fan Xing, a brat, brought the baby with him every day, and couldn't go anywhere.

Fan Xing looked up at him, his small face was obedient and innocent: "I'm so tired, I can't walk."

Yu Zhou: "..."

Fan Xing was tearful, pitifully: "Hold me."

Although this person has become smaller, even though he had a temper and awkwardness at first, but now he has fully recovered to the character when the two met.Jiang Xiao said that Fan Xing had seen Yu Zhou's soft personality early in the morning, so he could handle it well. After hearing this, Fan Xing didn't refute, and wanted to drill into Yu Zhou's arms again.

Yu Zhou bent down to pick up the villain and the puppy together, and walked towards the mountainside.

The weather here is sunny, with occasional light rain or two to moisten the land.There is always blue sky and white clouds above the head, and the air is always filled with the fragrance of flowers. The roses bloom and wither, but one after another, it seems that they will never fade.

Everything was too good to be true, which made Yu Zhou feel untrustworthy.

The house provided for adventurers is wrapped more and more tightly by rose vines, leaving only door and window passages.A young girl was poking her head outside the yard, and Yu Zhou recognized the person who led the way a few days ago.

Under today's bright sun, Yu Zhou suddenly noticed red spots on the girl's arm.The markings are like petals, round and small, all over the girl's arms.

"What's wrong with you?" Yu Zhou asked.

The girl was startled.She covered the marks on her arms, a little shy: "In spring, there will be such marks, it's a little itchy. Isn't it ugly?"

Yu Zhou: "Are you sick?"

The girl smiled: "How could it be? No one is sick here."

Fan Xing hugged Yu Zhou's neck and looked the girl up and down.The girl was carrying a heavy basket in her hand.Yu Zhou wanted to help her, but the girl put the basket into Yu Zhou's hand instead: "This is for you."

There are small bottles of nectar and wine in the basket, as well as fresh vegetables, ready-made bacon, and bread, which are full.

The dried fish lay on top of Gouzi's head, looked at the basket, and then at Yu Zhou.Fan Xing smiled slightly, and suddenly struggled in Yu Zhou's arms.

Yu Zhou put him on the ground, he hugged the dog, clutched the dried fish he wanted to watch, and ran to the side, leaving room for Yu Zhou and the girl.

Yu Zhou scratched his head and scratched his head, he was so nervous that he didn't know how to deal with it.

Few people took the initiative to treat him well, and then thought of Jiang Xiao's warning not to drink, he didn't accept it, and it didn't matter if he didn't accept it.

The girl put the basket on the ground, then suddenly approached and kissed Yu Zhou on the face.

Yugan's laughter stopped abruptly.Its fins waved wildly, excited and flustered: "Wow! Wow!"

Fan Xing has grabbed it many times, practice makes perfect, he grabbed it: "It's not you who kisses."

Dried Fish put the fins on his chest—if it had a heart—and said in a daze, “It’s so strange, so strange! I seem to be able to feel Yu Zhou’s emotions. He’s so happy, and so am I.” .I'm going to float, Fan Xing!"

Fan Xing threw away the dried fish and wiped his hands on his coat.The dried fish swam back to Yu Zhou, but the girl had already turned and ran away.

"...Are people here so straightforward?" Yu Zhou muttered to himself, "It's the first time someone treats me so well."

Yugan: "I also want to be kissed by girls."

One man and one fish looked at the back of the girl Xiao ran away, without saying a word for a long time.

Yu Zhou: "I would rather be kissed by a boy."

Yugan: "...It's okay if you're not a human being, I want to be kissed by anything!!!"

Behind them, on the rose vines covering the house, the buds became fuller and fuller, and finally gradually bloomed.

It was a light gray rose that had never been seen before.

The rose bloomed extremely fast, and within a few minutes, all the buds were open and swaying in the wind.

The branches of the flower fell to the ground, and the petals fell on the puppy's ears.

The puppy has never seen such a flower.It sniffed, opened its mouth, and ate one.

Fan Xing suddenly shouted.Yu Zhou and Yu Gan turned their heads, and the puppy had already fallen to the ground.

The clump of light gray roses around it had been chewed to pieces, and the dog's mouth was full of petals. It was vomiting and bleeding from its nose and mouth.

--------------------

The author has something to say:

Today's dried fish returned to normal, listening to Liu Yingnian telling stories to everyone.

There is a kind of food in the story called "Looking at the Starry Sky".

Dried fish: Oh!This name is really good, it must be a delicious dish, it goes well with me.

The fisherman's hat on the ground gave it the appearance of "looking up at the starry sky".Yugan was silent.

That night, the tip of Liu Yingnian's nose was bitten by the small teeth of the dried fish.
