——The wife of the family that raised the cotton spores passed away.
When an insect master has not completely resolved a matter related to insects, he has the habit of returning to visit regularly, one is to check the effect of the medicine, and the other is to leave a research record for future generations of insect masters.They were originally going to visit another family who had contact with "Tianbiansi". It was Songyang who found that their route seemed to pass by that family, so he wanted to go and have a look.
"Eh—why?" Yin Guchao grimaced reluctantly, "I was stabbed there, to be honest, the psychological shadow has not been eliminated yet."
Songyang was actually just curious.Even if Yin Gu repeatedly told him that the cotton spore is a worm without feelings, he more or less treated it as a traveling companion he had met, and wanted to secretly see if its "relative" was okay.
Unable to say a particularly tenable reason, Songyang frowned, and softened his voice: "Go."
"...Okay."
——As a result, he learned that his wife died of exhaustion.
Seeing the host at first sight, Song Yang didn't even recognize him.He has become as thin as a human being, guarding the empty village house by himself, looking at the deserted mountains, watching the sunrise and sunset all day long.In front of the house was his wife's grave, and next to it was a small grave with the name "Mianyan" written on it.
The loss of a wife and son in middle age, such a huge sense of pain, even Songyang felt helpless.He cleaned the dusty stove for now, tied up his sleeves, made a bowl of hot rice for the host, and put it in his hand.
"Taste it," he said softly.
The host seems to be unfamiliar with the use of chopsticks. Songyang waited for a long time before seeing him slowly take two grains of rice with chopsticks and put them into his mouth.
"One more bite." Songyang reached out to pick up the rice grains that fell on the ground, "Don't worry, take your time."
With every word and movement, the host took another ball of rice and put it into his mouth.
One bite at a time, the host ate the whole bowl of rice.After eating, Songyang took him to the stove, started washing rice again, made a new bowl of white rice, and put it in front of his wife's grave.
"Can you remember the steps just now? Put the rice in the rice jar and wash it in the water—"
"filter the water, turn on the fire, steam the rice, start the pot..."
"Yes. You don't have to think about anything, as long as you can remember the steps to make a bowl of hot rice, that's enough."
"Storing rice, washing rice, filtering water, lighting a fire..."
The male host read silently in the kitchen.He held a small yellow bowl in his thin hand, which he and his wife bought for Mian Spore, and used to hold fresh small fish, vegetables and fruits.When Songyang quietly put on his shoes and left, he was able to walk slowly and arrived at the door.
Yin Gu never entered the house.He was standing by the grave, looking at Songyang and the master at the door.The insect master's expression was very flat, not to mention any sadness or emotion, but a sense of indifference as if he had read a thousand sails.
"He can survive."
Before leaving, Yin Gu said to Songyang in a rather firm tone.
"Mr. Yin Gu, it's amazing to think about it. I've lived for so long, but I always have the feeling that I don't understand the existence of human beings."
Gingo smoked slowly.
"Humans are no different from worms and other creatures. We are all struggling to survive in adversity and accepting it before the disaster."
They went to pay a return visit to the girl who touched the "Silk of the Sky" by mistake.That girl was originally a servant of the rich young master and also his lover.Since coming into contact with the worm named "Skyline Silk", it has gradually mutated into a worm.She could see a lot of insects floating in the air, usually erratic as she walked, and her figure would sometimes become transparent.
Last year, Yin Gu left some medicine for the young master, and also carefully instructed: "Medication alone is not enough to turn her from a worm back into a human. You must maintain her tightly, and don't let her lose her human dignity." sense of value."
As a result, as soon as he entered the village this year, the insect master was immediately invited to the young master's house.The young master said anxiously that his lover suddenly disappeared.
"That's not it?"
Songyang whispered in Yingu's ear.Indeed, he saw a shimmering girl sitting on the beam above the young master's head, surrounded by undulating circles of worms.The girl's expression is neither sad nor happy, and she seems to be unable to hear the sound of the outside world. No matter how you look at it, she can no longer be called a "human" existence.
The so-called human has become a worm, is this the state?
Yin Gu lightly pressed Songyang's hand on his lap, meaning to let him sit back.Yin Gu said: "Last year, I remember I said that medicine alone is not enough, don't let her lose her sense of value as a human being, right?"
The young master hurriedly said: "I remember! I also worked very hard! I also want to marry A Chui as soon as possible, so that A Chui can feel the happiness of being a human being? But my father refused to agree no matter what, and the villagers also refused to agree. Always said she looked weird, always said there was something in the air... something..."
Yin Gu said, "What were you doing the day before she disappeared?"
The young master said: "I want everyone to accept Ah Chui, but she will float up when she walks, which is indeed... too strange. So I locked her in the warehouse and tied her feet with ropes, so that She wouldn't be floating around and being seen by others. As a result, the next day... I thought I had explained it clearly, and it was also for the happiness of both of us—”
Gingo slowly put down the cigarette.He rested his left eye with his hand, and seemed to be thinking.
The young master anxiously said: "What should I do? Hey, you are an insect master, prescribe some more medicine, as long as Ah Chui can come back, I will give you whatever amount—"
Songyang couldn't help but interjected: "Sir, Miss Abuki is by your side. Is it because you didn't fully accept her and was felt by her?"
"You, how could you understand—"
"Songyang."
The bug master called his name softly.He told the young master to let him think again, got up and took Songyang's hand, and brought him back to the room they borrowed.
"What will Miss Abuki become in the future?"
Song Yang asked.
"If the mutation continues like this, it will not even be able to maintain the human form. It will become the kind of tiny light worms you often see, and then dissolve into the light veins."
Yin Gu's voice was very calm, but after entering the room, he kept covering his left eye, and the fingers holding the cigarette seemed to be exerting force, and the knuckles were tense.
Songyang's heart skipped a beat.
"what happened to you?"
He almost trotted over, knelt down in front of Yin Gu, trying to touch his hand covering his left eye.
Gingo didn't speak, and seemed to be trying to adjust his breathing rhythm.When he spoke, the man still had that unhurried tone: "Songyang, fetch me a basin of warm water, will you?"
Songyang got up and ran out to find water for him.The servants of the young master's house looked at the panicked appearance of the gentle and calm long-haired man in surprise, thinking that there was a fire somewhere, and rushed over with several buckets of water.Songyang took it, and regardless of the etiquette of the guests, he opened the sliding door of the tea room, took the kettle on the fire, and slowly mixed warm water.
He didn't hold the kettle for a while, and poured boiling water on the back of his hand before falling into the cold water.It took a while to react, the red back of the hand slowly returned to its original appearance accompanied by the pain of the burn.
Unprecedented, Songyang was in a panic all over.
The insect master has always been calm and calm, and will not easily reveal his weaknesses; once it is revealed, it means that the situation may have become serious.
——And it was a problem that I, as a bug, could never solve.
Song Yang mixed warm water, and ran back to his room to find Yin Gu.
As soon as he entered the room, he was so frightened by the scene in front of him that he almost knocked over the basin.
Half of the man's shirt was covered with blood, and the blood seemed unstoppable. It dripped from the gap between his fingers covering his left eye, and dyed all the white hair on the left side red.Seeing Songyang coming in, Yin Gu still had that calm look, and even smiled at him: "Just put it here, thank you."
He fumbled for the towel in the sink and wiped the blood off his face.There was a lot of blood, and after a while the whole basin of warm water was stained red.
"I'll change it for you."
Song Yang was trembling even at the end.He reached out to hold the basin of red water, but Yin Gu held down his wrist.
"Why are you panicking." The man said with a smile, "It will stop after a while, don't be afraid."
Sure enough, almost as soon as he finished speaking, his left eye stopped bleeding.Yin Gu said: "Be prepared mentally, my left eye is actually a prosthetic eye."
After finishing speaking, the man deftly poked his finger into the eye socket, squeezed out a fake eyeball, and threw it into the basin.His empty eye sockets didn't collapse, but were filled with something completely dark, like an ominous black mist.
"Would you dislike it? The person you like is actually a one-eyed wolf."
Ignoring the man's joke, Songyang stepped forward and touched the lid of the other's left eye, and asked softly, "What is this?"
What he asked was the black mist in the eye socket of the other party.The insect master looked at him with his emerald green right eye, and after a long silence, he replied, "This is [Eternal Darkness]."
When an insect master has not completely resolved a matter related to insects, he has the habit of returning to visit regularly, one is to check the effect of the medicine, and the other is to leave a research record for future generations of insect masters.They were originally going to visit another family who had contact with "Tianbiansi".
