Chapter 160: An Illusory Dream
Suddenly, the hut became dark, and it was so dark that it was impossible to see anything, and in a moment there appeared a little flame the size of a grain of rice, which grew larger and larger, and in the light there was a woman who was cruelly bound to a stake, a woman in a white prison robe, who was already dying, a woman covered in blood and scars, and a woman who was extremely beautiful and about to be executed standing on the torture platform......
No one had ever seen such a touching beauty, even though there were two deep blood marks, crawling like an ugly centipede on her jade-like white and delicate cheeks, she was still so beautiful that people couldn't bear to look away. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info especially those eyes! Those eyes sparkled like stars, and the rippling waves in their eyes seemed to have a lot of grievances to confide in people, and that kind of grievance made everyone feel heartache, even women.
There were no tears, no resentment, no anger on that beautiful face. Some are just infinitely miserable, like a puppet with only a physical body still alive. Because there was no sound, it was impossible to hear what the people in the light were saying, as if they were announcing the woman's guilt. Then a man with a lighted torch went up to the torture platform and lit the pyre at the woman's feet.
"Ah, ah" Seeing this situation, Zhang Mengqi couldn't help but let out an exclamation, Zhang Mengjiao also exclaimed, and the white camel was so anxious that he couldn't wait to rush to the torture table immediately to save the weak and helpless beautiful woman. However, no matter how unbearable it was, the fire was ignited.
Instead of a hint of horror, the woman smiled. The smile was so delicate, as if the sun had broken through the darkness: the smile was so desolate, as if since the heart was dead, it was better to die than the body. It turns out that with a wry smile, you can also laugh so movingly. After the flames gradually engulfed the woman, the scene slowly disappeared. Everyone's heart can no longer be calm.
Everyone who saw this terrible burning at the stake looked preoccupied, and the tragic experience of that stunning woman had touched the softest place in everyone's hearts. I felt the regret of being powerless.
Zhang Mengqi couldn't calm down even more, and always felt as if she had seen this poor woman somewhere. In fact, those scenes were originally memories buried in her heart. Of course, this is completely unaware. She just felt that she clearly felt the helplessness and sadness of that woman, and she was sad with it. Except for a few people involved, no one else actually knows the truth of this twisted story.
But the truth is the truth after all, and no matter how well others cover it up, sooner or later the truth will be revealed. This tragic tragedy of countless lives lost due to the selfish love and hatred of several people is about to be revealed.
"Mengqi ......" "Mengqi ......" The terrifying voice sounded unexpectedly again, Zhang Mengqi held back the fear in his heart, closed his eyes and pretended not to hear. The screaming stopped, thinking that there would be no more trouble, Zhang Mengqi opened her eyes carefully, and as a result, an off-white and enlarged one appeared in front of her.
"Ah......" Zhang Mengqi couldn't bear the hysterical cry anymore,
"Sister, what's wrong?" Zhang Mengjiao saw Zhang Mengqi ask like this, Zhang Mengqi ignored her and shrunk into a ball and hid in the corner, the white camel stepped forward to check what happened to Zhang Mengqi, only to see Zhang Mengqi crying like a tearful person, closing her eyes tightly and not daring to open them, and even covering her ears firmly. Unfortunately, it didn't work at all, the eerie scream, the terrifying human face was still surrounding her......
Zhang Mengjiao and the white camel glanced at each other, unable to understand, not knowing what was wrong with Zhang Mengqi, because they couldn't hear this terrible voice.
Suddenly, a trace of cold coolness spread from the back of Zhang Mengjiao's neck, until the top of her head and toes, Zhang Mengjiao suddenly even her scalp was numb. Zhang Mengjiao stood there in a daze, unable to move, let alone daring to look back.
Without warning, a whirlwind rose from the soles of the white camel's feet and rolled up the papers in his hand, scattering them like snowflakes.
Zhang Mengjiao was still there, her mind was blank, and she didn't know how to react.
The paper on the ground "brushed" and it seemed that someone was walking on it, but there was no one to be seen. The footsteps stopped in front of the white camel.
Out of nowhere, a large pool of blood fell, staining the snow-white paper around it bright red.
The white camel stared at the blood in front of him stupidly, opened his mouth wide, but he couldn't make a sound, and the sound of blood dripping echoed in his ears.
"It's an illusion, it's an illusion...... "The white camel kept reminding himself, but his hands still trembled uncontrollably.
A cold and stiff hand held the back of Zhang Mengjiao's neck, and the chill and tingling immediately entered Zhang Mengjiao's brain from her feet. Does it make people feel cold and painful? I wanted to get out of here quickly, but I couldn't move half a step.
The hand wrapped around the back of Zhang Mengjiao's neck, getting tighter and tighter, and Zhang Mengjiao's eyes gradually turned black......
When Zhang Mengjiao opened her eyes again, she stood in front of the door of the hut again. It's brand new compared to the last time I saw it. Inside the door, there was a long stream of people, far from the decline of the last time we saw them.
The door opened without warning. On the winding corridor inside, there are neat rows of red lanterns, and there is a faint weirdness in the festivities.
Zhang Mengjiao stood in front of the door in a daze, is this a real scene or an illusory dream? At this point, it's completely unclear. From time to time, there was the sound of children playing happily, the heroic drinking of men, the delicate chuckling of women, and the muttering of old men......
A lively home...... Zhang Mengjiao was envious from the bottom of her heart, her heart was throbbing inexplicably, and she wanted to go in to see what a happy family was like. After all...... This is something I've always longed for but never experienced, and it's good to just look at it. Completely forgetting the fear and possible danger in her heart, Zhang Mengjiao resolutely stepped through the door desperately.
Walking through the courtyards and corridors, laughter, singing...... It's getting louder and closer.
That's big enough here...... There are also a lot of large and small rockeries and a lot of flowers and plants in the patio. Zhang Mengjiao had no time to watch, so she just looked for the source of the sound like a fascination.
Saw it, she saw it! Zhang Mengjiao happily watched the happy scene in the house: two white-haired old men laughed and teased their young grandchildren: a few women sat next to them doing needlework while chatting about the east family, and the west family was short and wrong: several men were drinking wine and bragging about what they had seen: several children were running around happily, grabbing the dolls in their hands......
