Chapter 36: The Seventy-Two Dragons (3)
My sister's fiancΓ© met my sister when the educated youth went to the countryside.
He is a scholar, both in temperament and appearance are different from others, his sister was tempted from the first sight of him, and he was also attracted by his sister's beauty.
When the two fell in love with each other and finally agreed to a lifelong agreement, the national policy changed, the educated youth was able to return to his hometown, and he also returned to university to study.
Everything is changing, but his agreement with her has not changed, and he doesn't care about how his family opposes him.
At that time, my sister was very miserable and happy. She suffers from not being recognized by his family, and she is happy for his persistence.
However, this perseverance withstood the wind and waves, but it was shattered in this gossip.
The three of them became tigers, and his sister's fiancΓ© still listened to the rumors like others, and broke off the marriage contract with his sister who came to him to explain on the spot.
In less than half a year, he married the daughter of another high-ranking official under the arrangement of his parents and left for another country and never returned.
When his sister, who had been waiting for him to turn back, finally broke down when she heard the news that he was married and had gone abroad.
On a spring day when the grass grows and the warbler flies, she hangs herself in the red dress she wore when she first met him.
It was on this crooked willow tree that she hanged herself, and her father and mother were very sad, so they moved here so that they didn't want to hear these gossips again. And the willow tree was also transplanted by my father. β
When the old grandmother said this, her tone was indescribably sad.
Aunt Li sighed softly, she didn't expect her mother-in-law to have such a past.
Yi Yang looked at the old man with a straight gaze: "But in the end, all this is actually caused by you, Grandma." β
The old grandmother was silent as she smoked a cigarette, and her eyes were full of sorrow.
It was of course her fault, and if it weren't for her selfishness, her sister wouldn't have died young, and her home wouldn't have been shattered.
The old grandmother looked at Ye Xi: "Little girl, is the ghost I saw my sister my sister?"
Ye Xi nodded: "It shouldn't be wrong." β
The old grandmother smiled miserably: "Then you won't save my son." β
Ye Xi and the others were stunned for a moment, and Aunt Li was a little excited and said, "Mom! What do you mean?!"
The old grandmother looked at the willow tree and said, "I caused her to lose the person she loves the most, and she should always find me to pay back this debt." β
Aunt Li was a little anxious: "But, but ......"
Ye Xi looked at Grandma: "Grandma, this debt is not calculated like this. The grievances between you and your sister will be judged, and you and I will still be saved. β
After speaking, Ye Xi looked at Aunt Li again: "Aunt Li, let me see your family first." β
"Good, good!"
Aunt Li hurriedly took Ye Xi and Yi Yang to the back room.
As soon as he entered the back room, Yi Yang saw a middle-aged man lying on a wooden bed, his eyes wide open, staring straight at the ceiling, and his mouth kept saying something. His face was pale and blue, and the heavy dark circles under his eyes made him look eerie.
This should be the person who was called "Leizi" by the old grandmother.
Yi Yang looked down at the compass in his hand, and saw that the pointer on it was facing this person impartially.
Ye Xi glanced at his situation, and frowned slightly: "Sure enough, he was possessed by a ghost." β
Faintly, she could see with the naked eye that there was a woman standing on this man.
It must be the old man's sister.
When Aunt Li heard this, she immediately grabbed Ye Xi's hand and said with a crying voice: "Master, you must save him!"
Ye Xi comforted Aunt Li and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely save him, Yi Yang, you take Aunt Li out first." β
After Yi Yang left the room with Aunt Li, Ye Xi stretched out his right index finger and touched the middle-aged man's forehead a little, and was instantly rebounded by a force.
Ye Xi's brows furrowed even deeper: resentment had already invaded this person's bone marrow, and if he wanted to forcibly separate, he could only let it be scattered first. But in doing so, there will be no rebirth in the next life.
Ye Xi sighed, walked out of the room and told Yi Yang the problem.
The old grandmother, who had been silent from the beginning, suddenly spoke: "I don't want her to disappear, and I don't want my son to suffer anymore." In this way, she is my sister, I will beg her!
The old lady trembled into the room. She came to Leizi's side, grabbed his hand and said in a trembling voice: "Sister, I'm Xing'er!
Leizi's whole person twitched, his hand suddenly grabbed the old grandmother's wrist, his eyes widened, and his eyeballs seemed to be bursting out.
Ye Xi stood aside and prepared to go, in case something happened to the old grandmother.
This person is pitiful, but she will never let it go.
The old grandmother's wrist was tightened, but she was not afraid, but put her other hand on his hand, looked at him with teary eyes, and said: "I'm sorry sister, I'm sorry for you! I was ignorant back then, I hurt you! You have resentment, I know that you are right to hate me, but my son's life is not only my life, he is also her daughter-in-law's life, it is his son's life, if you want to ask for your life, you can rush at me! Take my life, leave my son's body!"
The old woman almost cried out loud.
This matter has been buried deep in her heart for a long time, tormenting her for a long time, and now it is time to make a break, she doesn't want to die with this heavy guilt in front of her closed eyes.
Yi Yang looked at the crying grandmother and felt no taste in his heart, and just wanted to comfort a few words, but inadvertently found that the pointer on his compass began to sway from side to side.
While he was still secretly wondering, he heard Leizi suddenly let out a sigh.
Gently mourning, secluded.
Leizi's eyes slowly closed, and the hand holding the grandmother gradually loosened.
Everyone was a little overwhelmed, Ye Xi came to Leizi's side and nodded his forehead to check his soul, and only after making sure that it was correct, he said, "She has left." β
Yi Yang subconsciously looked at his compass, only to see that the pointer of the compass had pointed to the willow tree outside the door at some point.
Even if you turn into a ghost, you still can't do it? No matter if you become a human or a ghost, the place that doesn't change will never change.
In order to overtake the old man's sister, Ye Xi took off the red rope tied around his waist and wrapped it around the trunk of the willow tree.
This red rope was given to her by the master that day, which can ward off evil spirits and purify the spirit. She took out three sticks of incense from her pocket and put them in front of the willow tree, chanting the scriptures excessively.
After the excess, the willow leaves began to fall off gradually, and they fluttered and flew all over the sky.
In a trance, the old man saw a young and beautiful woman in red appear under the willow tree, smiling at her amid the flying willow leaves, just as her sister had looked at her with a smile.
