Chapter 9: Telling the Parting
When Zhang Xue turned to leave, the green ghost also followed her, vigilant around, braving the sunset sun, a little uncomfortable.
Zhang Xue saw Mo Qing standing in front of the door, and hurriedly ran over to take a look at the gossip mirror on the door, but she didn't hurt Mo Qing.
The green ghost saw Mo Qing and immediately grinned and roared, while Zhang Xue was in its hands, preparing to attack.
Mo Qing glanced at the green ghost indifferently, it followed Zhang Xue all the way, and said, "Where did the wild ghost come from?"
Zhang Xue looked back and saw the green ghost not far away, and hurriedly shouted: "Huh, why are you following the green ghost? Come in, the sun hasn't set." Zhang Xue ran over and looked at the green ghost.
The green ghost protected Zhang Xue behind him and grinned at Mo Qing.
Zhang Xue saw the green ghost roaring at Mo Qing, and hurriedly ran out from behind it, stood in front of it, and said, "He's not a bad person, green ghost, he's my husband." ”
Roar~ The green ghost looked down at Zhang Xue, and then at Mo Qing.
Zhang Xue grabbed the green ghost, walked to the door, and said, "Let's go, go to the eaves and talk, the sun hasn't set yet, don't come out to bask in the sun." ”
However, the green ghost remained motionless and did not follow Zhang Xue.
Mo Qing walked down the steps and said, "This gossip mirror will attack it, don't let it enter if you don't want it to be hurt." ”
Zhang Xue asked puzzledly, "Then why didn't I attack you?"
Mo Qing chuckled and said, "Secret." He moved his gaze to the green ghost, looked at it carefully, and said, "There is the breath of a ghost, is it his ghost servant?"
Zhang Xue nodded and said with a smile: "Green ghost, this is Mo Qing, he is not a bad person, you can't attack him." ”
The green ghost roared and nodded.
Mo Qing asked, "Can't speak?" Then why did you follow Zhang Xue back?"
Zhang Xue watched the green ghost yell at Mo Qing and gestured, while Mo Qing nodded and said, "I will send someone to protect her." ”
Zhang Xue asked, "Can you understand what the green ghost said?"
Mo Qing said: "Ghosts also have the language and writing of ghosts. ”
The green ghost left, returned to the east courtyard, and continued to crouch in the corner under the eaves.
Zhang Xue and Mo Qing walked in together.
Huang Jiaozhu walked out, saw Zhang Xue and Mo Qing coming back, and said, "Come back, go wash your hands and eat, Xue'er, have you seen my brother?"
Zhang Xue shook her head and ran to wash her hands.
Mo Qing watched Zhang Xue run away and said to Huang Jiaozhu, "He left here." ”
Huang Jiaozhu, who was guarding in front of the door, heard Mo Qing say this, and hurriedly asked, "What is leaving?"
Mo Qing said: "This morning, he said that he went out to wander. ”
Huang Jiaozhu sighed and said, "This kid, why don't you tell me!"
At this time, Zhang Xijing came out and said: "It's time to go out and break in, whether you live or die depends on his life." ”
Huang Jiaozhu frowned and said, "Now that the army is in chaos, how can you get out?"
Mo Qing walked to the lobby, and Zhang Xue had already prepared incense for him.
The rain was pouring down, and the thunder was rumbling.
Under the eaves, Mo Qing stood there, taking a look at her, Zhang Xue stood in front of the window, sullen, and sighed.
Mo Qing walked over and asked, "Why are you sighing?"
Zhang Xue pouted and said, "I don't know where Ghost Zhang's brother and brother have gone, and I don't know what happened to them now?"
Mo Qing said: "Zhang Yanna, I will let Bingzhi follow, if something happens, Bingzhi will forcefully bring him back." Before Zhang Yan left, he came to find himself, saying that he would find a way to replace him, let Zhang Xue continue to live, and he would also come to defeat him.
Zhang Xue looked up at Mo Qing and stretched out her hand to hug him, feeling cold and cold, just like her current mood.
The West Courtyard is Liu Sanniang's residence, and lives with Zhang Gui's father Zhang Yu and son Li Liang.
In the house, Zhang Yu was lying on the bed, his eyes were hollow, his expression was dull, and he was stingy.
Liu Sanniang stood beside her with her hands crossed on her hips, frowned and said, "This dead ghost can't pry his mouth, what should I do?"
Li Liang sat next to him, poured a cup of tea, and said coldly: "Since it's useless, you can disappear humanely." ”
Liu Sanniang hesitated for a moment and said, "This... Are you really going to kill him?"
Li Liang said coldly: "Do you still want to save him and let him kill us?"
Liu Sanniang didn't speak, looking at Zhang Yu lying there, although she has been married here for five or six years, it is false to say that she has no feelings, and Zhang Yu has never treated herself badly in recent years.
Li Liang stood up, walked to the bed, looked at Liu Sanniang's hesitant appearance, reached out against her chin, and said, "Don't tell me that you have feelings for him, go and tell them that Zhang Yu is dead." ”
Liu Sanniang lowered her head, took one last look at Zhang Yu, turned around and walked out, and closed the door.
The rain became heavier and heavier, and the thunder continued.
Liu Sanniang looked at the sky, running in the rain, and the water droplets on her face were rain or tears, and she couldn't tell the difference.
In the Zhang family's mansion, Huang Jiaozhu was embroidering a dress for Zhang Xue, and Zhang Xijing was practicing calligraphy next to her.
Liu Sanniang rushed in and shouted, "Oh no! Oh no! My Lao Yu is dying!"
Huang Jiaozhu was so startled, the needle pricked her finger, stinged, Zhang Xijing's handwriting was crooked, looked at Liu Sanniang, hurriedly threw down the brush, and ran to the West Courtyard.
Huang Jiaozhu said: "This... I'll go too!" picked up the umbrella next to him and went with Liu Sanniang.
In the west courtyard, Zhang Xijing ran to the room, only to see Li Liang kneeling beside the bed and bowing his head, walking over, and seeing Zhang Yu lying there, who had already lost his breath.
Li Liang choked up and said, "Woo... Unexpectedly... As soon as I come back... Only... It's all my fault. ”
Liu Sanniang and Huang Jiaozhu walked into the house together, Liu Sanniang ran to the bedside, threw herself on Zhang Yu's corpse, and cried: "Zhang Yu!
Huang Jiaozhu came to Zhang Xijing's side, snuggled in his arms and cried quietly, why did this person just say that he was leaving.
Three days later, the Zhang family held a funeral.
In the ancestral hall, Liu Sanniang and Li Liang knelt in front of the spiritual tablet, and Zhang Yu's coffin was placed in front of them.
Huang Jiaozhu and Zhang Xijing organized the funeral together and received the guests.
Zhang Xue stood in it, choking in a low voice, and at the same time, secretly asked Mo Qing: "Will Uncle also become a ghost?"
Mo Qing looked down at Zhang Xue and didn't answer her, Cheng Ghost didn't want to succeed, took her little hand and took her out.
After the funeral, Zhang Xijing and Li Liang led people to carry the coffin up the mountain for burial.
Huang Jiaozhu comforted Liu Sanniang, and Liu Sanniang cried: "Abandon me like this, the one who has no conscience... Yes... Woooooooo
Huang Jiaozhu sighed slightly and said, "It's hard to be a bad Sanniang." ”。 Zhang Xue threw herself into Huang Jiaozhu's arms and choked up: "Mother... Woo..."
At night, in the ancestral hall, Liu Sanniang knelt in front of Zhang Yuling's tablet, holding a Buddhist scripture in her hand and chanting.
The next day, early in the morning.
The rain stopped, and Zhang Xue, who was sleeping in the room, was woken up by the chaotic voices outside.
When the rain stopped outside, Zhang Xue got dressed and ran out, stood at the door, looked at the people coming and going, and muttered, "What's going on? Why is it so noisy?"
Huang Jiaozhu walked back and saw Zhang Xue standing in front of the door, and hurriedly said, "Xue'er, why did you run out, go back and review your homework." ”
Zhang Xue asked curiously, "Mother, what happened?"
Huang Jiaozhu said kindly: "It's okay, don't run blindly, go back and review your homework." ”
Last night's storm blocked the only way out by flash floods.
Liu Sanniang was also in the crowd, looking at the collapsed mountain, biting her lip, and turning to leave the scene.
