Chapter 46: Awakening from a Dream

"Don't kill me!"

The pompous suddenly woke up and sat up suddenly, panting heavily, his heart pounding wildly, and cold sweat had soaked his entire back. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

He dreamed of that incident again, he thought to himself, ten years had passed since that experience, but the expressions of the thin man and the others were vivid, as if it had happened yesterday. Then I thought of my parents and brother, and my exaggerated heart suddenly wondered, are they doing now? Without my burden, I should be able to live a happy life. Suddenly, I thought of Lan Rui again, worried and sad, I don't know if she was hurt or frightened that day, but thinking that from now on, no matter how much worry she has, it is useless.

After a long time of grief, the pompousness came back to his senses, and he looked at the room, which was very simple, still a bed, a cabinet, a table and a stool, so he thought that he had been taken back to the square tower tulou. A lamp on the table was still lit, and the blue-white flame, although small, illuminated the whole room and made people feel calm.

Suddenly noticed that strange sounds are endless, some are like the sound of waves lapping, some are like the sound of hard objects colliding, exaggerated and very surprised, Tulou is located in the barren mountains and mountains, where do the waves come from? So I got up and walked to see, as soon as I opened the door, I was stupid, only to see that in front of me was a main hall that was illuminated with silver, there was a painting hanging on the middle wall, under the painting there was a long table against the wall, there were potted plants blooming, there was an armchair at each end of the long table, and it was also facing the door with its back against the wall, and there was also a table of eight immortals in the middle of the main hall, and there were bridge benches on each side. Where is this the square tower tulou where I met the porcelain brother before!

"Uncle Ghost?" The pompous screamed softly, but there was no response, because it was late at night, for fear of disturbing, he did not continue to call, just walked gently to the door, wanted to go out to see where this was, just went out, couldn't help but wow, only to see the eyes full of snow-white lotus, with the ups and downs of the ocean, there is a huge moon in front, like floating on the sea in the sky, the moonlight is bright, dyeing a large area of waves with silver-white spots, like countless silver taels drifting on the sea, and the stars on the night sky compete to shine. What makes me even more exaggerated is that there is a straight pontoon bridge in the direction facing the gate, and the end of the pontoon bridge points to the bright moon, which seems to be easy for people to hallucinate and mistakenly think that the pontoon bridge leads to the moon!

Where is this? Heaven? Am I dead? Fukua thought about it and couldn't help but go in that direction, out of the house, through the dam, stepping off the pontoon, admiring the lotus flowers on both sides, the sea breeze blows, the lotus leaves are also swaying, Fukua only then realized that it has been the cold season, he suddenly noticed that the lotus flowers are planted on the dragon boat, and the bumping sound that he heard in the room is the collision of the two adjacent boats by the waves of the waves.

Although the sound of collisions and waves came and went, never stopped, but the exaggerated heart at this time felt extremely relaxed, he walked softly on the pontoon, with the oncoming moonlight, blowing the cold and cool sea breeze, smelling the fragrance of lotus, listening to the sound of the boat crashing from time to time, for a while he forgot all his thoughts and sorrows, and indulged in this rare comfort.

Walking and walking, unconsciously came to the end of the pontoon bridge, Fu Kuan suddenly noticed that there was a thing on the edge of the bridge emitting a white soft light, couldn't help but be curious, walked quickly to see, it turned out to be a white lantern, painted with a red simple pattern, he lifted the lantern and looked at it carefully, always felt that this pattern seemed to have seen somewhere, but for a while I couldn't remember.

"Are you awake?"

Suddenly a female voice came, which startled the pompousness, he hurriedly raised the lantern to look around, but all he saw was a dragon boat lotus, not to mention people, and there was no ghost in sight, he couldn't help but wonder if he was hallucinating, and asked softly: "Is there anyone?" He waited for a while, but no one responded, so he leaned over and wanted to put down the lantern and go back to the house, when suddenly he heard the sound of water crackling, and he hurriedly stretched out the lantern to look, and saw that someone was swimming in front of him, and couldn't help but take a few steps back and hold his breath.

The man climbed onto the pontoon bridge steadily, and a white belly hakama was particularly obvious in the dark night, but because it was facing away from the moonlight, and the light in the pompous hand was weak, and the two were separated by several steps, it was impossible to see the person's appearance, but it was clear that the other party was a woman through her figure.

As soon as the woman got on the pontoon bridge, she walked towards the pontoon, and the flamboyant didn't know whether the other party was friend or foe, and she was a little nervous, so she couldn't help but hurriedly retreat, but she didn't take many steps back and felt a pain in her waist, and accidentally hit the pillar of the fence by the bridge, he immediately raised the lantern to shine at the woman, and raised her courage and asked, "Who are you?" ”

The woman did not reply, but still walked unhurriedly, and when she passed by the pompous side, she took the white lantern and strolled away again. Pompousness couldn't understand what the situation was for a while, but he stood stupidly holding on to the pontoon fence, and the image of the woman being illuminated by the light when she took the lantern just now came to his mind. Suddenly, a voice came from behind him, "Follow me." He hurriedly turned to look, only to see that she was looking at him with a lantern twisted around her waist outside the three feet, and quickly turned around and continued to walk in the direction of the house.

The pomp hesitated for a moment, then trotted after her, followed her, and asked, "Did you save me?" She replied, "The one who saved you is a little ghost." "Imp? Exaggerated and secretly asked, "You mean Uncle Ghost?" She nodded, without saying much, and asked pompously, "Is he also in the house?" She replied in a light tone, "He'll be here in a few days." The pompousness was a little lost when he heard it, and he replied softly, and didn't say much.

The woman walked and put her hands behind her waist, and naturally carried the lantern behind her hips, because her abdomen was not covered in front and behind, except for a bundle of long hair slightly covered, the rest of her back was illuminated by the moonlight and the light was white and flawless, and the exaggerated eyes involuntarily stared at her back, not because the skin was snow-white, but there was a square spell mark on her back, and she couldn't help but be surprised, guessing what this spell mark was, suddenly his eyes lit up, and he was surprised: "It turned out to be you!" ”

The woman immediately stopped and turned around, with a look of doubt on her face. The pomp continued: "Do you remember it? Towards the evening of that afternoon, on the street of a residential high-rise in Gengshen District, I accidentally bumped into you! She put the lantern close to her ostentatious face, looked at it carefully, and finally remembered, but still with a cold expression, not surprised and surprised, just nodded and said, "What a coincidence." With that, he turned around and walked on.

The pompoo followed up and said, "You tied your hair up, I almost didn't recognize it." She didn't say anything, but raised her hand to tear off the white strip of cloth that bound her hair and shook it high, her long hair shaken loosely and covered her entire back. Seeing that she was soaking wet, he couldn't help asking, "Aren't you cold?" She replied, "Sort of." Although she felt that she was very cold, she still had to say some kind words in the end, so she said: "Thank you for saving me and leaving me here to recuperate, it's really nice here." He didn't continue to talk nonsense, just silently followed.

After walking like this for a while, the woman suddenly turned her face back and asked, "What's your name?" Seeing that she rarely took the initiative to speak, she couldn't help but smile: "They all call me exaggerated." What about you? ”

"Snow Chu." She replied as she walked slowly. exaggerated: "Then I'll call you Sister Xuechu." She nodded, and said no more. At this time, just after walking the pontoon bridge, the two crossed the dam, and after entering the house, she put the lantern on the table of the eight immortals, and then went back to the room and closed the door.

Pompousness sat down at the table, but his thoughts came up again, which made him so bored that he couldn't help lying on the table, and looked sideways at the door, only to see that the moonlight in the distance had sunk into the sea, and the sky was beginning to turn from black to inky blue, and the starlight was slowly weakening, and the dawn was coming. Suddenly heard the sound of the door opening, Fu Kuan immediately straightened up and looked, Xue Chu's door was still closed, but the adjacent door was open, and he saw a cat standing outside the door, and said in surprise: "Huh? What a big cat! The cat was also startled when he saw him, and asked, "Do you still have a mind?" ”

The pompous suddenly exclaimed: "Wow! This cat can speak! As he spoke, he quickly stood up and took a few steps back. In fact, this cat is the six whiskers, she rolled her eyes, then raised her hands, stretched out three fingers on her left hand, and four fingers on her right hand, and asked, "How many fingers are here?" Pompousness thought she was very strange, but replied, "Seven." Liusu then extended four fingers with his left hand and three fingers with his right hand, and asked, "What now?" I couldn't stand the pompousness, so I rolled my eyes and said, "You're so boring!" ”

Sure that he was not a corpse, Liusu finally stretched out, and suddenly heard the sound of the door opening again, it was the master who came out, and hurriedly rejoiced: "Master, we succeeded, he is not crazy!" At this time, Xue Chu had already changed into a placket skirt, but it was still a cloak, she nodded, and ordered: "It's almost dawn, go get a pen and cinnabar." Liusu went to prepare, and Xue Chu turned to pompous and said, "You come with me." With that, he walked through the back door of the main hall.

Fu Kuan hurriedly followed, and came to the back of the house in a few steps, and just wanted to ask where to go, only to see Sister Xue Chu suddenly jumped on the eaves, then turned around and looked down and said, "Come up." Exaggerated frowned, although he often did the thing of climbing the roof, but this house did not have a low ear room like Lan Rui's house, so he asked weakly, "Is there a ladder?" Before the words fell, I suddenly felt that the belt behind my back was buckled, and it was the big cat.

Liusu grabbed him tightly and said with contempt: "I don't know how to work lightly." With that, he jumped violently, and rushed to the eaves with the exaggeration, and the exaggeration stood firm in panic, and followed them to the roof. The house is a roof-like building, topped by a rectangular flat roof surrounded by four ridges, with carved fences about a foot high on each side, and a dragon head at each of the four corners, all staring at the center of the flat top, and the dragon body extending down along the four ridges to the tail of the dragon, forming a cornice.

"You lie down." Xue Chu stretched out his palm and pointed to the center of the flat top and said to the pompous. Exaggerated and puzzled: "Here? Liusu was impatient, kicked him in the heel and scolded, "Don't mother-in-law, the sun is coming out." Xue Chu glared at Liusu and said, "Don't be rude." ”

The pompous didn't know what they were going to do, but they had to do it, but as soon as they lay down, they noticed that Sister Xue Chu had a short knife hidden in her sleeve, and suddenly became nervous and asked, "What are you going to do?" Xue Chu didn't talk, just sat cross-legged on the side, opposite to the seat of the room, and Liusu was glared at by the master, didn't dare to talk nonsense, obediently stood next to him, pulled out the stopper of the small porcelain bottle in his hand, and then put the small brush in it and dipped it, and when he took it out again, the tip of the brush was dyed red.

Xue Chu took the brush, then took out a short knife, and wrote on the end of the knife near the hilt, at this time the sea breeze was a little strong, blowing her long hair flying. After she finished writing, she said to the pompous: "Untie your shirt." The exaggeration became more and more nervous, thinking that this woman was born as beautiful as a fairy, not like she would do such a cruel thing as vivisection, not to mention that she was still a big living person! But thinking about what happened in Iron City before, I still don't dare to take it lightly.

Xue Chu saw that he was frightened, so he explained: "Your injury is still unstable, I will give you a spell." "Exaggerated and secretly worried, Uncle Ghost entrusted himself to them, it should be credible, besides, his own waste body, it is easy for them to kill, why bother, thinking of this, I finally took the courage to untie my shirt.

Xue Chu took the brush and lit a red dot on his chest, and handed the brush to Liusu to put it away, and then held the short knife in his left hand and put the red dot on the tip of the knife, which was obviously preparing to stab the knife in! Pompousness was suddenly shocked and asked, "You...... What are you doing?! ”

"Listen, if you don't want to die, don't move." Before the words fell, Xue Chu raised his right hand and slapped the handle of the knife violently, and immediately blood splattered, and the short knife was inserted into the exaggerated chest!
