The Kunlun Mountains stretch for thousands of miles. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
It took a day and a night to go all the way down from Shake Light Mountain.
Jing and Ling slept all night on a bonfire in the dense forest in the mountains, and finally reached the bottom of the mountain with a warm climate like summer the next afternoon.
Jing Liqiu raised his hand across the sword eyebrows, stretched his eyes and looked at it, seeing the ethereal smoke in the sunset, and said indifferently: "There is a village not far ahead, so you don't have to sleep in the wild at night." ”
"What village is ahead?" Lingxue craned her neck and looked out to see a simple thatched roof.
"I don't know, you can ask."
"Aren't you going?"
"I'm not going." Jing Liqiu's eyes looked at the barren weedy land next to him: "My goal is different from yours, so let's go our separate ways." ”
"So fast!" Ling Suxue was a little reluctant: "It's about to fall into the night, why don't Brother Jing find a farmer in the village in front of me to stay overnight, and then continue to hurry tomorrow morning?" ”
"No! Sooner or later, we will be separated, so it is better to part, lest the longer we get along, the more reluctant I will be to you. ”
"But the night is dangerous." Ling Suxue persuaded.
"I'm full of spells, and demons and monsters can't hurt me. Su Xue, don't say more, let's say goodbye! ”
"Okay."
The two said goodbye in the red sunset, and then walked in different directions with their parting sorrows.
Lingsuxue, who was alone, looked ahead in confusion and walked forward on the verdant grass.
After walking for a stick of incense, a small river that was neither wide nor narrow appeared in front of him.
The sparkling river waves look dazzling and beautiful in the deep orange sunset, like glittering purple gold.
The village is on the other side of the river, and across the river you can find a warm farmer to rest.
Lingsuxue didn't want to stay, so she found a piece of bark the size of a basin from the lush weeds next to her, put her burden and outer path on the bark, and swam across the river.
The river flows slowly eastward, and there are no big waves.
Lingsu Snow swims like a fish, pushing the bark of the tree in the purple-gold river waves, little by little.
Swimming to the middle of the river, there was a large grass carp returning home with a group of small grass carp swimming past Lingsu Xue, she looked at them happily, forgot to paddle with her hands for a while, her body sank down, and ate a few mouthfuls of sandy river water. When I swam up again, the sky was already completely dark, and I saw a white silver moon hanging in the air, like a pearl and jade.
"The sunset is setting too fast...... Lingyuxue sighed as she swam quickly towards the other side.
The evening breeze is getting stronger and stronger, with a bit of an eerie chill.
After going ashore, Xun Ling Xue Xue Xue Xue
The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and Xiao Xiao raised his clothes.
At night, the village is hardly occupied, so there is no movement between the thatched huts in the moonlight except for the sound of the wind.
Ling Suxue walked in in confusion, not knowing which farmer to find, she walked slowly, looking, and suddenly saw a strange white figure floating in front of her.
It's so late, I don't know what this man in white is doing when he comes out? Ling Suxue thought curiously, and then walked to the outside of a small farmhouse with relatively bright lights, ready to go in and knock on the door to disturb.
Suddenly, the white robe floated out again.
When Ling Suxue turned her head to look, the white clothes had disappeared.
A moment later, a girl dressed in red and blue with a bright background, with a pair of hanging buns on her head and like a pair of fluttering little wings, passed by Ling Suxue.
Ling Suxue hurriedly pulled the girl's slender and cold hands and necks, ran to the corner of the wall next to her in horror to dodge, and whispered: "The girl is so late, what are you doing when you come out?" ”
"My dad hasn't come back yet, I'm going to wait for him by the river!" The girl replied lightly, looking at her arm with a sad look in her eyes: "Girl, what are you pulling me to a dark corner?" ”
"Shh Ling Suxue hurriedly covered the other party's lips with her slender hand and reminded: "You shouldn't have come out so late, just now I saw a shadow in white, that person is a ghost, he has no shadow!" Let's be careful, we must not be seen by him, otherwise we don't know how to die. ”
The girl was indifferent, and there was no horror in her eyes: "Ghost? Who are you talking about? ”
"Just now, I saw the white robe twice, and there was no shadow under his feet! So he must be a ghost! Where is your home, I'll send you back! "Lingsuxue is in a hurry.
She cultivates the aisle, so she is naturally more familiar with demons and monsters.
And the girl was calm and abnormal, and she was not shocked: "There is no shadow, is it terrible?" ”
"People have shadows, but ghosts have no shadows, aren't you afraid?"
"What am I afraid of? I don't have a shadow either! ”
Ling Suxue was shocked: "What, you are a ghost ......"
She quickly withdrew her hand and jumped away from the girl.
The girl smiled indifferently: "Isn't it bad to have no shadow?" Girl, don't you have no shadow? ”
Ling Suxue was stunned, her back was cold, her eyes trembled and looked at her feet, and on the moonlit ground, except for the fluttering and slender grass shadow, there was no longer anyone's shadow.
"When did I die?" Ling Suxue sat on the ground with a pale face.
The girl shook her head slightly: "I don't know, but from the strong mortal smell emanating from you, it can be inferred that you should have just died." ”
Just died?
It's horrible.
Ling Suxue didn't even know how she died.
The girl looked towards the river: "Girl, think about it slowly, I'm going to the river to wait for Daddy." With that, she drifted away.
Ling Suxue hung her head, looking like she had no love, thinking back to the scene from the unfixed view of going down the mountain to the present, and she couldn't deduce it even after racking her brains. Then she walked towards the river, and found that her feet were light, and she gradually walked like a young woman, slightly hanging in the air.
The white-clothed shadow suddenly floated over, a bitter-faced man with a pale face and deep-set eyes, who idly accosted Ling Suxue: "Girl, you just died? ”
Lingsu Xue flew away and ignored it.
"Are you looking for your own body?" The man in white looked strange and cunning: "I'll help you find it, there is a better chance of finding it by one more person." ”
Ling Suxue ignored the old and quickly floated to the river, and the silver male ghost flicked his sleeves in disappointment: "Hmph! Be kind to the donkey's liver and lungs! "Anyway, drift in the other direction.
Standing by the river looking at the girl who was wearing the autumn water, she saw Lingsu Snow drifting in, and greeted with a smile: "Do you remember how you died?" ”
"Not yet." Lingsu Xue floated to the other party, and the light in her eyes was faint like two ghost fires flickering in the night.
The girl lamented: "Within twelve hours, if you can find your body, you can still return the yang, if you don't go to the underworld to report after twelve hours, you will become a lonely ghost and a wild ghost, and there will be no reincarnation forever." ”
"Aren't there two yin priests, black and white, to catch ghosts?"
"Ghosts like us who died unexpectedly are not under the jurisdiction of the Yin Division, and they only take people according to the time set by the heavens on the book of life and death. So girl, you must hurry up and find your body to regain your yang, otherwise you will be trapped in this small mountain village forever like me, and you will never be free. ”
The girl's miserable eyes shed icy tears.
The snow-white moonlight gradually turned scarlet, weird. (To be continued.) )
