Chapter 142: Look, the leaves of Manju Sahua
That night, Li Mai slept in Manman's boudoir. There is the fragrance of Manman's Manzhu Sawa on the pillow, faint, seemingly absent, but very breathtaking. Li Mai couldn't sleep because of such a warm fragrance, and when he looked up, he saw Man Man in red flying out of the window.
Driven by curiosity, Li Mai gently opened the door.
It's all people.
In this flourishing flower bush on the other side, all people are standing densely. They were all facing the same direction in a watchful posture, as if there was their hope there. Li Mai was slightly shocked, but he immediately knew that these were not people, yes, where did they come from in the Yellow Spring. But the people were moving slowly and mechanically, which made him very suspicious.
So, he didn't know what he was thinking at the time, he just got lucky to mix in the crowd. He wanted to see where Manman had gone, and he wanted to know where these people were going. The book he read once said that the soul will return to the Yellow Spring, drink Meng Po soup and forget the past, and go straight to reincarnation, so the place where these people go may be their own home.
The crowd was still moving slowly, but strangely enough, the flowers on the other side of the ground seemed to have magical powers, and they would automatically move out of the way.
Li Mai bent his knees slightly to look at the flower of the underworld. Manju Sawa - The Flower of the Other Side. The petals were swaying, but there was not a single leaf in sight. Yes, he remembered the record in the book, the flowers on the other side bloom on the other side, and the flowers and leaves will never be seen. No wonder the coldness revealed in the Manman dance, the loneliness revealed in the song.
"Here, drink it!" came the voice of an old woman in front of him, who craned his neck to see that it was a kind old woman, and there was no hint of ghostliness. Could it be that this is the legendary Meng Po? He was a little puzzled, the legendary Meng Po should be ghostly, how could the one he see now be so loving, and even, very much like his grandmother in life. It was an old lady who loved herself in every way, and in his eyes, although her grandson was a little different, he was still a treasure in her heart. As long as there is a day when she is still there, no one can bully him!
His body seemed to be attracted by Meng Po, and he walked slowly without resistance, in his eyes, the Meng Po in front of him seemed to be his grandmother, he just wanted to see her again, and say a word to her. Seeing that he was about to come to Meng Po, and even that he could smell the bitter taste of Meng Po soup, a figure suddenly came to his side and pulled him over.
He was so startled that he didn't even react to screaming, when he was crushed by a man behind a high pile of rocks. That person was dressed in black and had a cold face, it was Nie Yang. He did not let go of the hand that held him, but on the contrary, he pushed harder, as if to choke his throat.
Li Mai only felt that his soul was gradually out of his body, and his whole body began to soften. Finally, the hand suddenly let go. Gravity suddenly returned to him, and he fell to his knees, just about to cough, but suddenly the man picked him up again and covered his mouth.
"Don't make a sound, or I won't be able to protect you!" Then, Nie Yang suddenly took off his coat and draped it over his body. In the seconds of a second, a huge monster that looked like a huge rock sniffed vigorously as it passed them. The monster had a strange smell on it, like death.
"What are you doing here?" Nie Yang grabbed the coat he was wearing and asked angrily as if the danger had been lifted.
"I...."Li Mai's heart was actually very afraid of this black-clothed young man, although he was the same age as him, but the indescribable coldness revealed by him made him shudder.
Nie Yang didn't want to listen to his nonsense at all, grabbed him by the collar, and dragged him back to Manman's boudoir.
"You're really a nuisance!" Nie Yang threw him to the ground with a terrible cold look in his eyes.
When Man Man heard the sound, he hurriedly ran out of the room, and when he saw Li Mai sitting on the ground, he finally let out a long breath, and the whole person relaxed from the tense state.
"Since it's your person, you yourself are optimistic about him!" Nie Yang didn't look at Li Mai again, nor did he say a word to Manmando.
"You, where have you been?" Manman's face was full of concern, and it could be seen that she was trying her best to suppress her temper.
"I..." Li Mai didn't know what to say, because no matter what he said, he didn't obey Manman's instructions in the final analysis. "I'm sorry. "
Man Man was stunned for a moment, and then knew that it might be that his attitude just now was too fierce, and he was just about to speak, when suddenly there was a chill behind him, and he couldn't say it for a while. Man Man was excited, and then pulled up Li Mai, who was still sitting on the ground. It was the first time Li Mai saw Man Man with such a panicked expression, although his body was soft, he still tried his best to cooperate with Man Man's movements until Man Man dragged him into the room.
Manman shoved him behind him, then made a silent gesture and hurried to the window to peek. Soon, there was a slight tremor in the ground, from far and near. Li Mai was also very curious, so he also cautiously posted it and peeked outside like Manman.
It's the kind of monster he's just seen, a lot of them. The one at the head was huge, and it was stepping on the bright and charming Manshu Sawa domineeringly, and the fragile petals fell down one after another, and the smaller ones that followed ate ate the petals, and the corners of their mouths dripped bright red flower juice.
Man Man noticed Li Mai beside him, but he didn't have much time to care about him now, seeing that the large monster finally walked from the flower garden in front of him, Man Man's tense body had also relaxed.
"What is that?" Li Mai remembered that he had seen such a monster at Meng Po's place just now, and when it passed by him, it even turned its head to look at him, if he hadn't been wearing the coat of Nie Yang in black at that time, the consequences should have been unimaginable.
However, his question was too inopportune. There was one of the smallest, and it lingered in the flowerbed even after the army had passed by. Suddenly, Li Mai's faint voice and breath were completely received by it. It looked at it a little confused, as if it was hesitating whether what it had just heard was its own auditory hallucination, so it slowly raised its head and tried to grow its nostrils and began to sniff vigorously.
Manman saw it sniffing hard as he moved closer to them, and suddenly had a bad premonition. She pulled Li Mai up and pushed him onto her bed without saying a word. Although Li Mai already knew that the current situation was not optimistic, he was suddenly pressed on the bed by a woman who took the initiative to be a little panicked and excited, and his throat moved and he wanted to scream. Manman secretly screamed badly, and pulled up the quilt and covered the two of them.
Li Mai suddenly felt that his eyes were dark, and when his eyes adjusted to the darkness, he only saw Manman's lonely and beautiful face. Her breath sprayed softly on his neck, and it turned out to be stuffy and itchy.
"You..." Li Mai was about to speak, but Man Man immediately reprimanded in a low voice, "Shut up!" Helplessly, Li Mai had to hold his breath and concentrate, while listening to every move outside with his ears.
Manman was also listening attentively at this time, she put her ear sideways, leaned against the quilt to listen, and for a long time, there was no sound outside. Manman breathed a sigh of relief, as if the crisis had been lifted. I don't know why it's unusually stuffy in the quilt, and there are beads of sweat the size of beans on the foreheads of the two people. The two of them were very embarrassed against each other.
Li Mai subconsciously went to lift the quilt corner, but when he moved, he suddenly heard the creaking sound of the door being roofed. Li Mai's mouth opened slightly, and he let out a muffled cry. This time, I was deflated. The thing outside the door suddenly stopped, and the two of them looked at each other, and they both had a bad premonition in their hearts at the same time. Then, the thing began to pound the door with all its might.
Manman was a little impatient, but he couldn't do anything to him at this moment. His little wooden door was about to be smashed by this monster, but he had nothing to do, Man Man knew that if this monster entered the house at this moment, then Li Mai, who was an escape, would inevitably be torn apart by it on the spot.
This monster was originally a soul-eating beast born and raised in the underworld, and it usually lives on the petals of the flower on the other side, and it can be regarded as the upper layer of the Manman food chain. Occasionally, there will be a few wandering spirits or lonely ghosts who don't know what to do, and it will also become a meal for this soul-eating beast.
Presumably, this Li Mai's popularity is still heavy, so it will attract this soul-eating beast to linger outside the door and refuse to retreat. Man Man knew that although this soul eater beast was persistent, her IQ was not very high, and if she covered it up properly, she could easily send it away, so that she could save Li Mai's life.
However, Manman couldn't help but hesitate. Although his method worked quickly, as a girl, he couldn't pull off this face, and then looked at the soft and weak Li Mai, and he didn't know why he suddenly liked him. For so long in the underworld, she has seen countless souls, and for so many years, whether it is a yin or a bureaucrat, there are not many who have pursued themselves. But why, why did I fall in love with this weak book that was powerless?
Destiny.
Manman bit his lip, as if he had made up his mind. Li Mai looked at her face with a confused expression, and suddenly seemed to feel the subtlety of the atmosphere, and couldn't help but blush her cheeks.
Creak.
The wooden door let out a lament as if it had suddenly given up resistance. Man Man immediately grabbed the quilt and covered the two of them again, and then crossed a breath of ghost qi into Li Mai's mouth.
Everything came too suddenly, and Li Mai's eyes widened at the boss, who seemed surprised and surprised. But the body quickly turned cold, and the monster crashed in, sniffing beside the two, shaking its head, and sniffing close to the bodies of the two, sniffing for a while, it seemed to be very puzzled, but it refused to leave. Suddenly, there were many small cries of the monster outside the door, as if to make it return, and the monster stomped its foot heavily in confusion, and snorted to open the door and go out.
Man Man and Li Mai still maintained a kissing position, and the temperature of the air in the quilt seemed to have reached its peak. Li Mai gently pulled down the quilt covering his head, and then suddenly hugged Manman tighter.
Manman didn't dodge, it seemed that she had been longing for such a hug, such a kiss.
The old wooden door creaked and closed softly with the wind, and the flowers in the flower bed that had been eaten by the monster gradually sank into the soil, and the place where the flowers originally grew slowly pulled out the tender green leaves.
