Chapter Ninety-Eight: Wang Xiaoshi
Three people and three riders, gradually moving away, the inn slowly became a distant dot.
Wang Xiaoshi was always a little uneasy, and looked back, as if he wanted to see through that small dot to see through the soul that was locked in the pain of life and life.
Wu Moting saw his appearance, laughed at his amorous and felt a little sigh at the same time, such a person will not be a ruthless person, nor will he be a despicable person, you can laugh at him, but you will not despise him. He also looked back, and suddenly, he felt that something was wrong, and then realized: "That cry ......"
"What?" Seeing him suddenly speak, Wang Xiaoshi couldn't help but ask suspiciously.
Wu Moting's expression was a little hesitant, as if he was judging whether his cognition was correct and as if he was thinking that he was enough to say such a thing, but he finally chose to speak: "Last night, when I was half asleep and half awake, I only felt that the cry became more and more sad and sad, but later, to the later ......" He paused for a long time, as if thinking about how to express the complex emotions at that time, "I seem to be haunted by nightmares, but in the end, everything settled, everything disappeared, and the cry seemed to be released in this end." ”
Wang Xiaoshi's eyes lit up suddenly, looked at the back of Chen Li, who was silently and speechless, and rode the horse to catch up, staring at her delicate side face, and said, "Ah Li girl, it turns out that you have sent away the female ghost last night!"
In the face of Wang Xiaoshi's words, Chen Li was silent, his expression was still cold and indifferent, and he just rode forward.
She didn't answer, but he was sure, because of this affirmation, Wang Xiaoshi's whole body relaxed, he should have thought a long time ago, Chen Li has always been kind, how could she not make a move. Thinking like this, his tone was also a lot more cheerful, "Ah Li girl, the story of that female ghost is very long, I told you about it slowly on the way." ”
Chen Li was still silent, and at this time Wu Moting also caught up, quite curious, compared to a boring and dull rush, it is always good to have a story to relieve boredom, "You can tell me and listen to it." ”
Wang Xiaoshi cleared his throat and said: "That woman was originally the daughter of a big family, but unfortunately her father offended the high-ranking officials, and the high-ranking officials used dirty means to ruin their family, and the daughter-in-law was also sold into the happy field to endure humiliation, but this young lady is both beautiful and artistic, and the bustard naturally hangs her high to sell in order to collect money, and she does not sell her body to publicize her art, and she has become a red-card girl sought after by everyone for a while." ”
Wu Moting thought about the woman, and once the daughter of the Gaomen fell, he couldn't help but sigh, and asked very cooperatively: "What happened later?"
Later, she met a Xiucai, moved her heart, did everything she could, helped that Xiucai to enter Beijing to catch the exam, and she herself also gathered Congliang, only waiting for the Xiucai to return from the imperial examination, she could welcome her into the house, and since then she has lived and lived in an amphibious life, and she has loved her to old age. Wang Xiaoshi's tone gradually lowered.
Wu Moting hurriedly said: "Oh! I know this! The favorite passage in the mortal book! That scholar must be the top student in high school, but he is treacherous, right!"
"Treachery alone is always to be expected. Wang Xiaoshi sighed and continued: "That Xiucai returned from high school, returned the money and silver that the woman gave him at that time, and told the woman in a righteous manner that she was a lowly woman with a little red lips, and she was a talented and high-ranking official with a clean net, and the justice of the world was like this, how could she be worthy of him, and how could he marry her into the house." Now that the money and silver have been returned, he has nothing to do with her, and hopes that she will be self-aware and stop pestering. ”
"This..."Wu Moting didn't expect this to be the result, and said: "What he said is actually not unreasonable. ”
Wang Xiaoshi glanced at him, but didn't say anything, most of the people in the world also thought the same, he just continued: "That woman loves him very much, and humbly pleads, even if she enters the palace as a concubine, even if she is a slave or a maid, she wants to stay by his side." But Na Xiucai was extremely ruthless, and bluntly said that the existence of this woman was a stain on him, and told her to leave quickly. The woman left in despair, and her hopes for many years came to naught, so she wore a red wedding dress she had prepared for herself, tied the box of silver money that Xiucai gave her, and committed suicide by throwing herself into the river. ”
"She's tough. Wu Moting sighed.
The woman was too obsessed, and when she died, it was the night of the new moon, and she was dressed in red from beginning to end, and her soul turned into a ghost, and she drifted to the house of that Xiucai, who knew that Xiucai was marrying a famous lady, she was extremely sad, but she still did not hurt him, but just showed up when he was alone, and asked him if he had ever loved him in the slightest, or if there was no justice in this world, this public prejudice, whether he would marry her. Na Xiucai thought that she was still not dead set to come to entangle, and told her with a tired expression that he had never loved her, everything was just a last resort for him to catch up with the test expenses, how could they be sincere, how could they be innocent, and he even regretted knowing her back then. Even if she died, he wouldn't care at all. ”
"He's too ruthless. Wu Moting couldn't help but say.
These words finally stimulated the woman, she turned into a ghost, and let Xiucai's family die tragically in one night, but she herself was swallowed up by resentment, slowly lost her consciousness, and lingered in her sad place forever, constantly killing people, and constantly repeating her own nightmares. Wang Xiaoshi's voice gradually lowered, and finally finished telling the story.
"The axioms of the world. Chen Li, who had been silent, suddenly sneered, his voice was cold and piercing, full of mockery, and even, with a trace of bitter resentment.
"Ah Li girl?" Wang Xiaoshi's impression of Chen Li is always cold and indifferent, and she has never had such a fierce emotional outlet, and she doesn't know what this story reminds her of, or, who is it? Although she just sneered, but he heard extremely strong emotions from it, she was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and she had been raised in the Chen family since she was a child, and she had almost no contact with the outside world. The only intimate opposite sex is also Chen Xi, who is extremely pure, how can he have such a deep and resentful relationship?
Chen Li looked at Wang Xiaoshi, his tone was not as blandish as usual, he only felt full of sarcasm, "You misunderstood me, I didn't exonerate anyone, she wanted to kill me, so I killed her." ”
Wu Moting on the side didn't dare to speak for a while, but felt that today's Chen Li seemed to be very wrong, could it be that she was haunted by powerful ghosts?
Wang Xiaoshi retorted a little excitedly: "No, Ah Li, girl, why do you say that! You are already kind, this is not something to be ashamed of!"
"Huh. Chen Li sneered, "I just don't like to kill people, but when others kill me, I never be soft." So saying, she raised her whip and whipped the horse hard, and the horse neighed in pain, opened its hooves, and galloped.
Wang Xiaoshi and Wu Moting were startled, and without saying much, they hurriedly drove their horses to chase after them......
