Chapter 52: Ye Xi's Past
At the beginning, Ye Xi and Liu Qianqian agreed to meet at the nameless bridge outside the city and eloped in one place, Ye Xi arrived half an hour earlier than Liu Qianqian.
It's just that there is one thing that no one knows.
That is, Ye Xi has a fiancée who is married to her fingertips, and she is displaced because of her family. And Ye Xi's family themselves also forgot about this matter.
Ye Xi's fiancée Rui'er trekked through mountains and rivers and came to find Ye Xi, but heard the news that Ye Xi and the fireworks woman were on good terms. When Rui'er heard this, this was okay, and her fiancé, who had been thinking about her for many years, actually fell in love with another woman.
Therefore, Rui'er wandered into the White Jade Building, used some tricks, approached Liu Qianqian, and became her personal maid.
Later, when she heard the news of Liu Qianqian and Ye Xi's elopement in the White Jade Building, Rui'er couldn't help it anymore and rushed to the Nameless Bridge that day.
At that time, Ye Xi had already arrived, and Rui'er's appearance made Ye Xi a little surprised.
Rui'er angrily took out the marriage letter of the two families, as well as the love token, and told Ye Xi her identity.
Ye Xi naturally couldn't accept it, he only had Liu Qianqian in his heart, and told Rui'er that he would take the marriage book to the county government to be invalidated, cancel this marriage that he never knew, and the marriage of men and women would have nothing to do with it in the future.
Hearing this, Rui'er was completely angry, and took advantage of Ye Xi's unpreparedness to directly push him down the bridge, and jumped down with him.
Rui'er has suffered a lot, and she has been scooping water since she was a child, but Ye Xi, the handsome son, can't, and she flutters in the water.
Seeing Ye Xi's struggling appearance, Rui'er was happy in her heart and drowned him directly in the water.
After killing Ye Xi, Rui'er was also scared for a moment, but when she thought that he had lost herself, she felt that she was not wrong.
Rui'er had learned a little bit of yin and yang from some Jianghu warlocks, and knew that Ye Xi had died in vain, and he might come back to find him. In order not to let Ye Xi take revenge, and not let him meet Liu Qianqian, she pressed Ye Xi under a big stone in the water and couldn't float.
Subsequently, he wrote his birthday on a small scarecrow, and wrapped it with his own blood cloth every month to bury the scarecrow by the bridge. In order to consume Ye Xi's soul energy, it also shields the search for yin.
The reason why there is Ye Xi's birthday is because of the marriage book, which clearly writes the birth dates of two people.
In this way, although Ye Xi died and became a ghost, he could not be reincarnated, and he was crushed under the bridge and could not leave. And because of the blood of filth, he can't cultivate.
Fortunately, Rui'er left Shanti County after that, and no one used Kwai Water to deal with Ye Xi again. But the scarecrow didn't take it, Ye Xi was still suppressed, and he could only sigh.
It wasn't until decades later that Rui'er suddenly found out in her conscience before she died, and with the support of her descendants, she went to the Bridge of Sighs and took out the scarecrow.
Some villagers passed by here, and they heard Rui'er talking to herself, and only then did they understand what was going on. However, not many people heard it, and everyone also thought that there was an evil sect here, so there was very little news about it.
After listening, Jiang Li was also helpless in his heart, this is the impermanence of the world.
Thinking of this, he thought that the soul that was exchanged last night should be Ye Xi.
After all, his soul was seriously injured by dirty blood, and Ye Xi couldn't remember anything, so he could only be a lonely ghost under the bridge. Fortunately, his soul was not pure, and there were no other ghosts devouring him, so he had wandered to the present.
"Thank you, old man, for helping me. Jiang Li stood up, bent down and bowed.
The old man didn't care, and waved his hand, "Okay, the world only thinks it's a rumor, and I don't know if it's true or not, and there's no way to verify it." ”
Jiang Li didn't think so, he had already found a way to resolve the grudge in Liu Qianqian's heart, thanks to the old man.
If you owe him a cause, you will pay back his fruit.
"Old man, if you believe me, don't go west for seven days, and after seven days, the rest of your life will be open. ”
"Okay, I remember. The old man smiled.
He still has some faith in the words of the Taoist priest, after all, they are all elderly people, and they have a lot more knowledge.
After Jiang Li said goodbye to the old man, he soon joined Song Shuyang.
"Lao Jiang, do you have any gains over there? I inquired a lot, but it was only vaguely rumored that this Bridge of Sighs had something to do with Ye Xi, and no one knew what the relationship was. Song Shuyang scratched his head, still a little confused.
"I've already inquired, go back and talk about it, let's get ready to nod and go to Baiyulou at noon." Your inquiry is not wrong, the Bridge of Sighs is indeed related to Ye Xi, and the soul we saw last night is Ye Xi. Jiang Li replied as he walked.
Song Shuyang looked suspicious and followed Jiang Li's footsteps.
"How is it possible, if it was Ye Xi, there was no reason to be so weak, I shrank back as soon as I was scared. It's also a ghost for more than three hundred years, how can it be weaker than a new soul. ”
Jiang Li was also very helpless, and sighed, "Let's go, talk while walking." When our affairs here are finished, we will start to prepare to go to Maoshan, and the time is almost up. ”
After returning to the inn, Jiang Li asked the shopkeeper for a pot of wine, and Song Shuyang felt distressed for a while, which made it even worse for them, who were not rich.
Jiang Li didn't say much to explain, just opened the wine jar, bit his fingertips, dripped three drops of blood, burned a scorching sun talisman, found a wine gourd and poured it in, and handed it to Song Shuyang.
At this moment, Song Shuyang knew that Jiang Li was not used to drink, but to prepare for going to Baiyulou.
"I said Lao Jiang, what is your wine and what does it do?" Song Shuyang took the wine jug and was careful to pin it to his waist.
"Liu Qianqian is a ghost cultivator, and the resentment in her heart is very deep, and noon does not necessarily have much restriction on her. Therefore, I prepared Sanyang wine, which belongs to yang. My physique is yang, and the scorching sun charm is also yang, and this three-yang wine composed of this three-yang wine can protect you to the greatest extent, after all, your specialty is zombies, exorcism, etc., or I am good at it. ”
Hearing this, Song Shuyang was stunned for a while, and his heart was a little uneasy.
"Brother, sincerely, hearing you say this, I feel that I should wait for you to come back in the inn, and I can't drag you down. Why don't you take this wine with you, and I'll wait for you to return triumphantly, and then celebrate with you?"
Na Zhijiang stretched out his hand, grabbed Song Shuyang's shoulder, and walked out.
"Say okay and go together, how can I leave you behind, let's go, go together. ”
"It's really useless, I'm afraid of a ghost cultivator, why don't you become a Taoist priest, go home and change to farming." The snow urn spoke angrily.
Song Shuyang was angry in his heart, "Nonsense, I'm afraid? I naturally won't, Lao Jiang, go!"
"Okay!" Jiang Li reached out and patted the cloth bag gently, smiling strangely.
It's a pity that Song Shuyang only had Xue Yan's words in his mind at this time, and he didn't see Jiang Li's smile at all.
After a long time, he knew that Jiang Li's appearance was simple, and his heart was bright, it was a real pit!
