Feng Lan took out the gold thread from the space. She usually put the unimportant props in the space and the important ones in the supermarket.
[Golden Thread: This must be a destined match... Tie it, and the golden thread will lead you to the one who cursed you. Of course, please don't use it to spin thread, as the golden thread itself carries a curse. If you want to become Sleeping Beauty, then forget what I said.]
In front of Elhua and Cosi, she explained to them the purpose of the golden thread.
"This golden thread can trace the karmic connection between people. Aside from your parents, the one with whom you share the deepest karmic connection must be that mage. So the golden thread will lead you to him."
The two of them had no doubt about Feng Lan's words. After all, the golden thread looked very stylish, like a magical creation.
The golden thread is just as its name suggests, a thin golden thread. When you hold it in your hand, it is cold, soft and emits tiny star-like light. However, you cannot catch this light. It will automatically disappear when it falls on your hand or on the ground.
Feng Lan wrapped a piece of the golden thread around Elhua and Kesi's hands. In the silence of the two of them and others like Linsen, the golden thread did not respond.
After a long while, when everyone was wondering whether Master Lan had taken the wrong thing, the golden thread seemed to have sensed something and slowly moved, extending in one direction and floating away.
Elhua and Cosi both knew that this was a reaction, and followed Feng Lan out with some trepidation, wanting to see where the golden thread would go.
Elhua is older than Cosi, and he was worried that if the wizard lived too far away, he and his companions would leave like this without taking anything with them, and what would they do on the road?
But soon, the golden thread led them to a more and more familiar path.
"This direction..."
"Is it Master Nejol?"
Elhua and Cosi looked at each other, both of them with uncontrollable surprise in their eyes.
However, before they could form all kinds of associations in their minds, Jin Xian turned around again and took them back home.
This made Elhua and Cosi even more confused. Could it be that someone in the family was the great wizard? His mother? His grandmother? The old housekeeper Darcy? It couldn't be this old house they lived in, haha!
Elhua was amused by his own thoughts, but he was relieved that Jin Xian didn't take them to Master Neiruo's house. After all, Master Neiruo had protected the town many times, driven away monsters near the town, helped the people in the town, and even read the curse to the Declan family. He only regretfully refused because he was not good at curses...
"Master Manyinde? Can you come out and talk now? Perhaps you have been waiting for this opportunity for a long time."
Linsen, Feitela and Darcy looked at Elhua and the others who went out and came back in confusion, but Feng Lan spoke to the hall and the name she called out scared them.
"Master Manyinde? He's in our house?"
"Where?"
"Merlin, this is really..."
Now that his identity had been exposed, the gloomy Master Manyinde suddenly walked out from an open space.
He was tall and thin, still wrapped in his purple-black cloak, which covered him tightly, revealing only a face with sunken cheekbones and a pair of gloomy eyes that always contained a hint of anger.
"what--"
The Declan family was startled by Manyinde's sudden appearance. Feng Lan retracted the golden thread wrapped around Elhua and Kesi's hands after seeing him come out. Master Manyinde looked at it for a while and said, "This golden thread doesn't have the effect you said."
Now that the person has come out, Feng Lan no longer lies to him and admits, "This golden rope can find the fate of the curse."
In other words,
It won’t work if you don’t cast a curse, and it won’t work if you cast a curse but it fails.
Elhua and Kesi didn't understand, but Manyinde did, and a hint of embarrassment appeared on his gloomy face.
After living for over six hundred years, I still can't seem to learn how to curse...
"They searched through all the books but couldn't find the reason for what happened back then. History has long forgotten everything. But now, as the last descendants of the Declan family, they hope to reconcile. So, can Master Manyinde tell them what happened back then?"
Feng Lan studied Manyinde's face and said, "Six hundred years have passed, and everyone who lived there is dead. Only Master Manyinde remembers it all, his heart soaked in anger, bitterness, grievance, and loneliness. It's so unfair."
"enough!"
Manyinde didn't know what Feng Lan said that irritated him, and he finally spoke. His voice was just like him, gloomy, full of anger, and as Feng Lan said, lonely.
"I'm sorry, Master Ne-Manyinde. No matter what happened back then, I apologize to you on their behalf."
After hearing Feng Lan's words and hearing Master Manyinde's somewhat disheartened shout, Kosi's brother Elhua spoke first. Feng Lan's words touched her.
She was only fourteen years old, but when reading the history of the Declan family, Cosi had thought about what happened back then. Six hundred years, that was such a long time. For Cosi, who could only live for fifty years since birth, it was simply too long.
So she couldn't imagine how sad it would be for a person who really had a conflict with the ancestors of the Declan family as Master Lan said, but waited for six hundred years and didn't get an apology. Instead, it was forgotten and forgotten by everyone with the death of the person involved.
Cosi goes to the river to paint every day. Those two hours are her own time. During these two hours, she feels as if she has spent a longer time than fifty years.
Occasionally, Cosi would meet Master Manyinde by the river on rainy days. He would be wrapped in his cloak that seemed to remain unchanged forever, standing quietly by the river, getting wet in the rain, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Now, Cauchy thought,
Perhaps, he was waiting for an apology that would never be spoken in person.
Elhua was a little shocked when he heard his sister's apology, but he also reacted. However, looking at Manyinde, the elder who had watched him grow up, he was actually the cause of the Declan family curse. He couldn't tell what he felt in his heart. Looking into Master Manyinde's eyes, Elhua felt like he saw a rain of anger and loneliness in his eyes. He lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry, Master Manyinde."
With the apologies of Kosi and Elhua, Manyinde's anger seemed to finally have a place to vent, his attitude also softened a little, and he was finally willing to talk about what happened in the past.
This happened six hundred years ago.
Manyinde stood alone in the corner of the hall, looking at Elhua and Cosi. The outlines of the people in the Declan family always had a hint of similarity.
Manyinde didn't need to recall what happened that year. He didn't speak often and his voice was not nice, so he seldom spoke. But this time, he was ready to tell a long story that he had kept in his heart for a long time.
Just like what Na Duo Xiangrui said, this past event has been in his heart for too long, so much so that even after six hundred years, he still cannot let it go. It can only rot in his heart, letting his heart be corroded by anger, bitterness, grievance and loneliness.
