Chapter 282 - Voice
“Senior Li, look! There’s lanterns in the sky!”
Hearing this, everyone raised their heads and saw the lanterns floating in the skies. They looked akin to luminescent jellyfish.
“Those are just lanterns. Nothing to be in awe about,” said Li Huowang as he brought the bowl close to his mouth and drank the best shrimp soup he had ever had.
The lanterns had numerous surnames written on them as they slowly floated into the skies and merged with the stars. The people who released the lanterns were all crying; it was as if they were conducting a ritual.
“It’s not just the skies. Look, someone is doing the same to the river too!”
There was a river that ran through Yinling City. Currently, the people were lighting candles on boats and sending them down the river.
“The Liang Kingdom sure is busy.” Li Huowang muttered as he looked at the sea of lanterns. He could feel that the Liang Kingdom was very different from the other places they had been too. Their wealth was immense.
“Miaomiao, we’ve passed through the kingdom of Si Qi, Hou Shu, Qing Qiu, and now the Liang Kingdom. Are there any more countries beyond the border of the Liang Kingdom?” asked Li Huowang.
“I don’t think so. If we traveled any further, then we would arrive at the sea,” replied Bai Lingmiao.
With this, Li Huowang’s understanding of this place solidified even further.
So the Liang Kingdom is bordered by the sea? I wonder if there are island countries beyond that.
Even if there are island countries, they probably are...
Just as Li Huowang was busy thinking about it, he suddenly heard an extremely faint voice mixed within the crowd’s chatter.
“Hungry. Mouth. Wood.”
As soon as he heard the voice, Li Huowang felt all of his hair stand on end. He suddenly stood up and looked around in a panic.
“If that’s you, then increase the dosage and try again,” said Li Huowang.
Li Huowang waited for the illusion to come, but nothing happened.
After a while, Li Huowang’s breathing became ragged as he glared at the tentacled monster. Then, he growled at it, “Stop fucking around! If you want me to think that the other side is real, then pull me back there if you can!”
Amidst his whisper-shouting, the Black Taisui continued wriggling bit by bit. It tried to extend its tentacles, but the hardened cow tendons bound it tightly.
Pant pant~
Li Huowang took deep breaths as he tried to calm his heart. Then, he continued to stand within the stable, waiting for the world around him to crumble away.
A long time passed before he suddenly heard someone shouting outside while smacking together pieces of bamboo, “Duo~ The weather is hot~ Be careful of the open fire~”
Based on that announcement, Li Huowang knew that it was the fourth section of the night. He had been waiting here for a few hours already, but nothing had happened. With this, he finally calmed down a little.
After that, Li Huowang took out a dagger from his pouch of torture tools and shaved off a piece of the Black Taisui to eat.
He kept munching on the rubbery flesh until he suddenly paused; a feeling of sadness suddenly appeared within his heart.
He had thought that he had let it go, but his reaction even in the face of such a faint hope made him realize that he had just been lying to himself.
He realized that he could never forget about the place where he grew up.
He yearned for it. He wanted the other side to be real and this side to be fake.
Maybe I really am sick. Maybe that side is fake. I have to stop being so suspicious. It was just a fake voice. There’s nothing to worry about. That’s right... everything is fine.
Just as Li Huowang was lost in his thoughts, the feeling of a foreign gaze instantly made him calm down.
“Who are you?” Li Huowang quickly closed the tarp and looked around only to find a man wearing a doll head standing within the stables.
“Someone told me to come and find you. I heard that you want to work with the Surveillance Bureau. Is that true?” At that moment, a voice as hoarse as Li Huowang’s came from underneath the doll’s head.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
