Chapter 8: Leaving in a hurry
readx; "Shall we make a bet?"
"Bet on what?"
"Bet on his fate! If he is for you and will not marry for life, I will let him go, but if he changes his mind, then I not only want his life, but also you! β
"But...... I'm dead! β
Yulan watched the river in front of her get darker and darker, closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she found herself lying on the carved wooden bed, and only then did she remember that she had dinner tonight, and she stayed here. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
When she went out and looked up at the sky, the moon was surprisingly round, and the moonlight was bright and dreamlikeβyes, she dreamed of the woman again, and the bet that kept her alive and immortal. She didn't understand why she was letting her ...... like this Alive!
There was also a person leaning against the wooden pillar on the other side of the courtyard, Yulan discovered her existence, walked over and said with concern: "It's so late, I haven't slept yet!" β
Xia Jing turned her gaze from the moon in the sky to the eyes of the visitor, she reached out and patted her yawning open mouth, and said, "You dreamed of her again!" β
Yulan nodded and said thoughtfully, "Is that curse unsolvable?" Xia Jing didn't make a sound, just looked at her, with a vague smile on her face, Yulan continued: "This is really too cruel! I don't care, I just want to get some relief, but those kids ......"
"Relief?" Xia Jing thought for a while and said in a very calm tone: "If you just want to die, I can help you!" β
Yulan smiled happily: "I want to die...... she turned to look at the bright moonlight, with an indifferent face: "In order to survive, I hid in Tibet, and I was always afraid of being discovered...... This kind of life has been too long, and I'm tired of life! But I want to get an answer before I die!"
"You want to know why she didn't let you die?" Xia Jing snorted coldly and asked, "Is the 'answer' really so important?" β
"Doesn't it matter?" Yu Lan glanced at her and muttered, "Aren't those children also working hard for this!" β
"Huh!" Xia Jing chuckled lightly and said no more.
Yu Lan was silent for a while, and suddenly remembered the last time Lin Shan saw the green light floating in the air, and said hesitantly: "There is something, I have always wanted to tell you ......"
Xia Jing turned his head and guessed, "About Lin Shan?" β
Yulan was a little surprised, she thought about it and smiled: "Last time I was in the hospital, that kid seemed to see ...... 'Something' she shouldn't see! β
"You mean 'spirits'?" Xia Jing smiled at the corner of his mouth and said: "Actually, there are some things that may be better if you don't know the 'answer'!" But the world is just like you, persistently pursuing the ultimate 'answer', even at the cost of their lives! Maybe...... That's what it means to be 'born for it'! β
Yulan was a little worried: "Could it be that she has really ......?"
"There are some things that are too pessimistic to draw conclusions too early!" Xia Jing straightened his waist, left the pillar, yawned and walked to the room, and said, "Good night!" May your trip be successful! β
The next day, it was a cloudy and uncertain day. A man and a woman stood on the ridge and looked outβ"I'll go over there, you go over there!" After Su Bei finished speaking, she ran to the left.
Lin Shan thought about the copper bell last night, and fell asleep sleepily very late. In her daze, she heard the sound of a rooster crowing, which reminded her of the people in the mansion. By the time she woke up, it was already three days old. Lin Shan stretched her waist and came to the yard, saw her grandmother flipping dried radish, and was about to go over to help, when she heard someone calling her name.
Grandma Lin glanced out of the courtyard: "Shanshan, it sounds like calling you!" β
"Hmm!" Lin Shan walked out curiously, and at a glance, she saw a person running over from the field ten meters away, and she asked in disbelief, "Why are you here?" β
Su Bei waved her hand and shouted, "You let me find it!" β
"What's wrong?" Lin Shan asked.
Su Bei complained: "Why don't you turn it on?" β
"Huh? The signal here is not good, I didn't pay attention to whether the phone is on, maybe it's out of battery! What happened? Lin Shan asked.
Su Bei glanced around, pulled her aside and whispered, "The seals are all invalid!" β
Lin Shan didn't react for a while, and asked, "What seal?" β
Su Bei looked disdainful: "It's just those few things, what kind of jade bracelet is there on the inkstone!" β
"What! So what's going on now? Lin Shan looked at her with wide eyes and asked.
Su Bei said with a rare serious face: "I don't know either!" I heard that the curse or something, I can still hold it down for the time being. By the way, Li Hao and they have already gone to Guizhou. Abang and I have come to you, we need to meet you quickly! β
Lin Shan glanced at the field behind him and asked, "What about Abang?" β
"Oops!" Su Bei shouted later: "Xiao Ting told me the approximate location, I had to look for it separately from him, and he was still asking around about you!" β
"You go find him, I'll go in and clean up!" Lin Shan hurriedly entered the hospital to say goodbye to her grandmother. What happened was unexpected by her, she didn't expect this day to come!
Grandma Lin knew that her granddaughter must be in trouble when she came back this time. But since Lin Shan didn't say anything, she didn't ask anything. After all, she couldn't intervene in this matter, all she could do was not to worry her granddaughter, pretend not to know, and send her away with a smile.
My cousin-in-law drove the three to the train station. At this moment, the gloomy sky finally got out of control, and the people who entered the pit station became panicked because of the rain.
They only bought three hard seats, and they were all separated, but fortunately they were not far apart. Lin Shan wiped the rain on her face with a tissue and walked towards her seat, followed by a woman holding a child. The rain dripped on the ground, a little slippery, the woman walked very carefully, but she couldn't withstand the push of the people behind her, she lost her center of gravity for a while, and threw herself forward with the child in her arms.
"Watch out for the kids!"
When the passengers who witnessed this scene exclaimed, Lin Shan immediately turned around and opened her arms in time. During this period of training, the reaction was a lot more agile. She held the child who had escaped from her mother's arms steadily, but her body fell backwards out of control...... In the chaotic carriage, exclamations came and went. But at the moment when Lin Shan caught the child, a man with headphones stood up and walked over in three steps and two steps. He wanted to hold on to her, but he didn't want to be the one at the bottom.
"Jingle Bell ~ Jingle Bell ~ Jingle Bell ~"
The carriage echoed with the cries of children, the concerned voices of passengers, and the sound of hugging, but Lin Shan's ears were a crisp and pleasant echo brought by the copper bell.
The woman took back her child, and someone reached out to help Lin Shan and the man on her back. Everyone took their seats one after another, and the people who came in after them were still crowded forward, and some passengers looked at them from time to time, and endured the rain splashing on their faces......
