Chapter 155: Quarrel in the Sunken Ship
Chapter 155: Quarrel in the Sunken Ship
Qi Yu took the initiative to call you master.
Your heart trembled, and then you heard Qi Yu's sadness from his extremely unstable breath.
"Qi Yu, are you..." You tried to change your movements.
As soon as you raise your hand, he will swim down obediently so that you can hold him easily.
He tilted his head to your shoulder, his soft hair floating slightly in the sea water, scratching the skin of your neck.
You patted the back of his head and smoothed his hair, "Qi Yu, are there a lot of things on your mind that you haven't told me?"
Qi Yu was silent for a long time before nodding. "Although Doctor Li advised me, saying that as long as I regard you as my faith, I can solve most of my problems, but I still feel confused."
Did Li Shen say that to Qi Yu?
To you, treating you as a faith or something is really not like Li Shen.
He should have his own beliefs. Although you are important to him, you should not be regarded as everything by him.
However, if you try to think from his perspective, you will soon understand why Li Shen said that.
The four of them are all characters in the game.
In the game, no matter how powerful, brave and strong their characters were, they have become a thing of the past as they leave the game.
Now, when they step back and examine themselves.
Where do they come from, why do they exist, and once they lose the game as a carrier, how will they gain a foothold and deal with themselves?
There is only one you who maintains their connection with their future lives.
And it is the only connection.
No matter who you are, you won’t feel at ease in this situation.
And this is probably why you feel that the four men have somewhat different personalities from those you know in the game.
They are people you are familiar with.
They have become people who are strangers to themselves.
"I'm as thin as a feather." Qi Yu's next words confirmed your guess. He wrapped his hands around your waist uncomfortably, "Just a breath from you, and I'll float away to an unknown distance, landing somewhere you can't see. If you don't pick me up, I... I'll..."
He paused, exasperated, "I can't even think about it anymore!"
You don't know how to make him more serious and not have such a light heart.
"Want me to tell you more about my time as a stalker?" You tried to dig up your memories. "Back then, I used the fishtail tag you gave me to summon you to my room..."
"Don't listen." Qi Yu became irritated. "It's not that I don't want to listen, it's just that...those stories can't ease the anxiety in my heart. They can only enrich my memories, but what's the use of memories? I'm no longer that person."
"..."
This is the first time you feel that Qi Yu is so difficult to coax.
Stay in the hugging position and both of you become quiet.
There is the occasional sound of turbulent water around.
There were schools of fish, big and small, swimming by, making the sound of their tails swishing in the water.
You can also faintly hear each other's heartbeats when you are close to each other.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this unsolvable problem." Qi Yu nestled in your arms and let out a long sigh.
Looking up at you again, he regained his lovely smile, "There's no trace of Lemurian civilization in the forbidden sea, but we can still go see if there's anything else interesting here~"
"Qi Yu..."
"Let's go!" Qi Yu grabbed your hand and continued to dive without saying anything.
You crossed a sandy area on the seabed and came to a shipwreck site.
Under the illumination of the many flames released by Qi Yu, you can see the area clearly.
The ancient ship lay there quietly.
The erosion of time has made its outline blurred, but it is still possible to recognize how huge it once was and how powerful it must have sailed on the sea.
Thinking about it this way, you feel a little ridiculous.
Forbidden land, where did it come from in the past?
The entire ship, including its hull, was covered in seaweed and corals, becoming a new home for marine life.
These natural growths add a touch of life to the shipwreck.
Qi Yu smiled and took you to swim through a hole in the hull and into its cabin.
An octopus with a head about the size of a basketball popped its head out of the cabin window and observed you curiously.
Its tentacles curl and wave in the water, as if greeting you.
You are attracted by the friendly gesture of this octopus.
Qi Yu then pulled you closer to the window again.
The octopus actually stretched out a tentacle, as if it wanted to make friends with you and shake hands with you.
Between fear and touch, you hesitated for a moment, and Qi Yu grabbed your hand and handed it to you.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here, it won't dare to hurt you."
Qi Yu's words of encouragement gave you enough courage, and you touched its tentacles with your fingertips, feeling its soft and resilient touch.
"See, I told you it wouldn't..."
Qi Yu was about to take credit when the octopus suddenly seemed frightened by your touch.
The whole body shrank back, whoosh——
It created a string of bubbles, which shot off like a torpedo to an unknown place.
"It's all your fault! You should have just kept quiet!" You angrily hit Qi Yu's shoulder.
"Oh!" Qi Yu shouted exaggeratedly, "Sea creatures are always very cautious! I'm the God of the Sea, so my words won't scare it. You must have touched it too hard and scared it away!"
Hey, this hot-tempered one, you can’t stand it anymore, pointing at Qi Yu, “You are unreasonable! It’s obviously you who scared it away!”
"How am I being unreasonable? You're the one being unreasonable, okay?" Qi Yu was also getting anxious, and like you, he pointed his finger at you, "Not only is this thing unreasonable, everything you do is unreasonable!"
“Ha!” You put your hands on your hips instead. “I’d like to hear it. How am I being unreasonable?”
"You are like that anyway." Qi Yu crossed his arms, obviously not wanting to argue anymore, so he used a more adorable sulking to give you a way out.
As long as you coax him a little, he will smile at you immediately.
Even if you don't coax him, within a minute or two, he will pretend to have forgotten the unhappiness and come back to pester you and act coquettishly.
This is not what you want.
If you want Xiaoyu to speak more truthfully, you have to stimulate him.
"Yes, it's all my fault! I was the one who insisted on activating the four of you, I was the one who insisted on possessing all four of you at the same time, I was the one who insisted on coming to the forbidden area to play the hero, and I was the one who insisted on bringing all four of you with me! I did all of this without your permission, I did it on my own, it's all my fault!"
You pretend to be furious, shout loudly, then turn around and try to swim out of the cabin.
Qi Yu was stunned at first, then his anger suddenly rose. He was already uneasy, anxious, and aggrieved, and you deliberately said such things. What's the difference between that and roasting fish over a fire?!
"You also know that it was you who activated me. You also know that you possess me as well as the other three? You also know that I was brought to the forbidden area inexplicably? Since you know all this, how can you pretend that everything is peaceful every day, repeatedly ignoring me, ignoring us, we are so..."
