Chapter 2: A Thrilling Dream (2)
With the light of the small lanterns, the road ahead is much easier.
As she walked, Tong Qianhan's foot tripped up, and the little lantern moved to her like a well-behaved child. Tong Qianhan bent down to see that there was a white skeleton lying on the grass, and her shoes happened to step on one of the bones, and she took a few steps back in a panic.
The white bones have a skull and sternum, judging from the length of the hands and feet, this is an adult's skeleton, Tong Qianhan never knew that he had such ability, and he could distinguish between animal and human bones.
I don't know when, the little lantern grew two round eyes and a crooked mouth, it showed a smiling face, and said to Tong Qianhan: "Don't be afraid, I will accompany you!" The little lantern said, its eyes bent into a line, and it looked very cute. Tong Qianhan was dumbfounded, she didn't expect this lantern to not only fly, but also to speak! She was not in such a good mood as the little lantern, and some of them were all terrified. She covered her eyes with her hands, closed her eyes tightly, and whispered, "Don't come, don't come!"
"Shh......h Don't make a sound, Sister Yi is here. The little lantern kindly reminded.
"What?" Tong Qianhan opened his eyes.
At this moment, a faint fragrance of flowers wafted in, what kind of smell is this? So familiar! Tong Qianhan closed her eyes again regardless of the danger, and took a deep breath, the magical taste brought her a subtle sense of pleasure.
A blood-red flower pokes its head out of the soil, this flower is in the shape of an umbrella, the petals are like lanceos, the strength is wrinkled and curled, about 3 cm long, about 0.5 cm wide, the stamen protrudes prominently outside the perianth, twice as long as the petals.
"What kind of flower is this? How does it feel familiar? It's so beautiful!" Tong Qianhan was thinking about it, and saw the red flower swaying from side to side, as if he was looking at something. After a while, the stalk slowly extends to a height of 30 cm, and then the safflower detaches from the stem and floats into the air, and the aroma becomes more and more intense, covering the entire forest.
This floral fragrance really has magical power, and Tong Qianhan seems to hear something moving. It turned out to be the skeleton on the ground, and it seemed to be awakened by the aroma, and with a movement of its fingers, the skull moved with it.
Tong Qianhan froze in place, the skeleton slowly stood up, and she fell to the ground again in a panic. The little lantern was always by her side, as if to cheer her up.
The bones walked forward step by step, and with each step there was a "gurgling" sound of the bones and joints twisting. He walked a few meters before stopping, when a puff of white smoke drifted in, and the skeleton turned into a handsome man in green clothes.
Tong Qianhan was so frightened that she was frightened, don't turn her head to hold the lantern and keep shaking, the little lantern emitted a strong heat in play, giving her a trace of warmth.
After a moment, Tong Qianhan plucked up the courage to look in the direction of the man, and found that the red flower had disappeared, only to see a girl in red smiling at the man.
"When did this girl come?" Tong Qianhan climbed forward two steps with questions, gently brushed away the branches with his hands, the small lantern followed closely behind, the light gradually became dim, it tilted its little head, blinked its cute eyes and looked ahead, it seemed to be more curious than Tong Qianhan.
The man in Tsing Yi was of medium stature, and it was too dark to see his facial features, but he saw a long ponytail on his chest, which looked particularly energetic.
The little lantern is turned back to its original brightness, and it seems that it is really a little gossip spirit.
At this time, the man in Tsing Yi stretched out his hand and gently pushed away the woman's drifting sea, his eyes revealed infinite love, and the woman in red looked at him with big round eyes with a smile in her eyes.
The two stared at each other for a long time, and the man in Tsing Yi held the woman tightly in his arms, stroked the hair on the back of her head with great affection, and said, "Sister-in-law, Brother Zifan misses you so much!" The woman nodded softly in his arms.
The little lantern stretched out two small hands and held them together, her eyes flashed, and she said, "Sister Yi is so beautiful!"
Tong Qianhan turned his head sideways and looked at it with envy, what kind of thing is this? I really don't know where the two legs will come out later.
The woman in red is indeed as the little lantern said—very beautiful. Petite figure, long black hair vertical to the slender waist, a long gauze skirt all the way to the ground, you see her eyes cut water I see pity. No wonder the man loved her so much!
The man in Tsing Yi let go of the woman in red and said gently: "We can only come out to meet secretly once a year now, and we are afraid that the god of flowers will know, it is really more difficult than the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl!"
The girl in red nodded again, and said softly: "Brother Zifan, there is no way, who let that Bei Yanshi mint a copper coin to create an opportunity for the god of flowers and trap us inside?"
The man hugged the girl in red into the broad chest hall and said, "In our previous life, we were the leaf demon and the flower demon, and we met secretly in defiance of the rules, and the flower god blamed us for putting us into reincarnation, and we were cursed to never be together, and we suffered in the human world for all our lives. Son-in-law, have you ever regretted it?"
The girl in red looked up at him with firm eyes and replied, "I don't regret it, even if I meet secretly like this every year, I will never regret it!"
The man in Tsing Yi stroked her cheek, tears welled up in his eyes, and he said bitterly: "I hope our next life can get rid of the fate of cursed reincarnation, it's too painful now!"
"Brother Zifan......" The two looked at each other with tears, and the man gently kissed away the tears on the face of the girl in red.
Little Lantern was moved to tears by the love story of the two. "What a sensual little guy. Tong Qianhan was thinking about it, when a fishy smell came to his nose, and blood flowed down from front of them like a waterfall, slowly blocking Tong Qianhan's sight......
