Chapter 955: The Gear of Fate (1)
The sea in July was blue and cool.
From time to time, Lulu would reach out and pat the water. It was probably because she was attracting fish. There was always a school of small fish around her.
“If the little girl lives on the sea, she must not lack food and drink.” There’s actually such a person who attracts fish and prawns.”
Her hand was submerged in the sea, and fish were jumping around her, swimming around her intimately.
“Miss Lulu is kind-hearted. She often does charity in the capital. All animals are close to people with spirits. They probably know that she is a passionate person.” Eunuch Lu said with a smile.
Lulu happily splashed the water. Drops of water fell on her face. It was cool and filled her with joy.
“Eh, what is floating over there…” Lulu looked into the distance.
“Boatman, row over and take a look.” As soon as he said that, he saw that thing floating straight towards Lulu.
When she got close, the little girl reached out and scooped it up.
Only then did he realize that it was actually a white ribbon.
“It’s for tying hair.” Eunuch Lu raised his orchid fingers and frowned as he shouted.
“People often drown in the sea. I’m afraid this headband is unlucky. Miss, quickly throw it away.” Eunuch Lu had a look of disgust and taboo.
Lulu blinked her eyes fiercely. This hairband was actually a magical treasure with spiritual energy.
It was just that after floating in the sea for too long, there was not much spiritual power left. It could only barely maintain its new appearance.
“It might be an immortal’s. Some time ago, we fished up the corpse of an immortal from the sea. I heard that it was transported to the capital to be presented to the emperor.”
“The corpses of immortals have not decayed for thousands of years, just like living people. Your belt is white with a hint of blue. It looks like the one that immortal wore.” The boatman’s eyes lit up when he talked about this.
After all, they were people who ate on the surface of the sea. This matter had long spread.
Seeing that the little girl cared, the boatman said, “”It was a pair of fisherman brothers who picked up the immortal. Their ancestors had been fishermen for generations, but their luck was extremely bad. When others fished, they barely made a living. After enduring this for who knows how many years, he managed to salvage an immortal some time ago. I actually made a fortune.”
“You don’t know that I made a fortune by fishing up immortals. After I came back, I dug out a few jars of gold from my ancestors ‘dilapidated house. I bought the land for less than two days, and I heard that treasures were dug out from the mountains.”
“The amount of wealth that has been accumulated one after another is endless. Sigh, this old man has rowed a boat all my life and has never made a fortune.” The boatman felt both regretful and envious.
“But those two brothers deserve to be rich. I heard that there are clan rules in his family’s genealogy. It turned out that many years ago, his ancestor had promised the immortal that he would be the immortal’s corpse collector. If they were salvaged, the immortals would be rewarded. This is the hard work of our ancestors. We can’t be envious.”
The boatman sighed.
Lulu held the headband in her hand, and her mind stirred.
In her dream, she had seen a man standing with his hands behind his back, suspended in the sea.
The man was wearing a long white robe with a hint of blue. He had sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes. His brows were filled with the confidence of a proud son of heaven.
He said, I want you to remember me.
Lulu stared at the headband and realized that there was a small drawing embroidered on the end.
Lulu took a look and his eyes flashed.
He took a deep breath.
She bit the tip of her tongue.
The woman embroidered on it looked 70 – 80% similar to her.
Whether it was the lover of the First Emperor or the immortal in the dream, they all seemed to have some kind of connection with her.
Lulu tied the hair band around her head, took out a pair of small bells, and hung them on her wrist.
When Lu Huaijiang saw this scene, she closed her eyes slightly.
The gears of fate had been spinning without stopping.
