Chapter 202: The Remnant Soul in the Ring
Ouyang Deyuan saw that the meat bun was running happily, but suddenly she screamed, only to see her fall to the ground with a snap, and she fell firmly and gnawed on the mud.
He was startled and hurriedly stepped forward to help her up.
"Meat buns, are you alright? Why was you so careless, where did the fall hurt? He asked nervously.
I was so hurt that tears were about to fall, so I barely got up, rubbed my chin and said, "Oops, it hurts, I don't know what hooked my foot." ”
The two of us turned to look at the pile of dead leaves, and sure enough, we found something inside.
"Bones...... Human leg bones...... This...... It's ......," I stammered, pointing to the dry bones of the man who was exposed.
Ouyang Deyuan checked it and replied, "It seems that this person has been dead here for a long time, and the corpses have all been corrupted, and there are only some bones left." ”
I looked at this leg bone sympathetically and said, "Alas, it's really pitiful, maybe he fell from the Sigui Cliff above like us, but he is not as lucky as us and can survive here." ”
Ouyang Deyuan and I dug a small pit for this unfortunate man, and buried all the few bones he had left, so as not to be spoiled by wild beasts again.
After burying it, I was also tired and sweaty, and when I was about to sit down and take a good breath, I heard Ouyang Deyuan say: "Lady, don't move, there is something under your buttocks." ”
Something underneath the ass? What's the matter? I curiously touched under my ass. The ground was a ring of erections.
I picked it up and looked, yo, why is it a ring?
I looked at the ring carefully, the style is very simple and simple, with the pattern of three plum blossoms engraved on it, I don't know what the meaning is.
The material doesn't look like gold or silver, black is not black, red is not red, and you can't tell what material it is made of.
I really couldn't understand it, so I handed it to Ouyang Deyuan.
He took the ring and looked at it repeatedly for a while before saying, "This ring is so strange that I can't tell what it's made of." Just judging by the various traces on it. It's possible that the ring is an antique, a long time old. ”
"This ring must have fallen from his body when we buried this bone just now, so we might as well bury it too." I said to Ouyang Deyuan.
But he shook his head slightly and said, "No." This ring is related to us. Let's stay with us as a memorial. When I see it in the future, I will remember this period of time under the Sigui Cliff. ”
He also has a point. A ring no longer means anything to the deceased, so leave it for us as a memorial.
I put the ring on my hand. It's quite appropriate, because I have experienced life and death myself, so I don't take this relic ring as a taboo.
But I couldn't be more wrong.
Because that night, I had a strange dream.
In my dream, I saw a handsome man in white with long hair walking slowly towards me.
He was slender and handsome, but there was a cold air on his face.
"You...... Who are you? I asked, looking at him quizzically.
He smiled faintly at me and said, "I'm the white bone that made you fall during the day." ”
The bones that hurt me in the daytime? That...... Isn't that a ghost?
I was so frightened that I turned around and tried to run, but he stopped me.
"Don't be afraid, I'm not a ghost, just a wisp of soul left in the ring, because you wear my ring, so you can see me in your dreams."
Aren't spirits ghosts? Are you still trying to lie to me?
I turned around in fear, not daring to look at him.
"Brother ghost, I'll bury that ring back to you tomorrow, don't look for me, I'...... I'm very timid. Maybe I'll be scared to death by you in a while, you are making up a murder! I covered my eyes and whispered.
The man chuckled.
He floated in front of my eyes and said, "My name is Fu Chengfeng, what's your name?" ”
I listened to his tone as if he was looking for my life, so I put down the hand covering my face.
"I ...... My name is Meat Bun, Brother Chengfeng, why don't you go to reincarnation and keep hiding in the ring? ”
He sighed heavily and said, "I was hurt by my loved ones, and I was unwilling, so I was angry and trapped in this ring. ”
"That'...... Then I can't help you, at most I'll return the ring to you tomorrow. I replied quietly.
"I don't want you to do anything, but in order to repay you for burying my bones, so that I won't be exposed to the wind and rain, I will guide you out of this valley of thought." He looked me in the eye and said truthfully.
I opened my mouth wide in surprise and said, "Really? Do you really know the way out of here? Haha, great, great, thank you, Brother Chengfeng. ”
I was so happy to laugh that I felt someone nudge me.
"Lady, lady, are you asleep?" Ouyang Deyuan said softly.
I opened my eyes all at once, huh? Was everything that just happened really a dream?
I looked at the ring on my hand suspiciously, and then I heard Ouyang Deyuan say in a miasmatic voice: "Lady, you were smiling so happily just now, do you want to ...... with me?"
I tapped him the head and said, "Pervert, I'm laughing because tomorrow we'll be able to leave this place and go home." ”
Puzzled, he said, "Oh? Why? Have you figured out a way to leave? ”
It's impossible, if Meat Bun could know the way to leave, she would have said it a long time ago, so why wait until now?
When Ouyang Deyuan couldn't figure it out, I lowered my voice and said to him: "I had a dream just now, I dreamed of the person we buried during the day, his name is Fu Chengfeng, and he said that he would guide us out of here. ”
Ouyang Deyuan smiled speechlessly.
"Lady...... It's just a dream, do you take it seriously? ”
I stretched out my finger and said to Ouyang Deyuan in disbelief: "It's not as simple as a dream, Fu Chengfeng's soul is trapped in this ring, because I am wearing this ring, so I will see him in a dream." ”
Ouyang Deyuan shrugged his shoulders in disbelief and said, "Okay, okay, go to sleep, whether it's true or not, I'll know tomorrow." ”
After saying that, he yawned a lot and fell asleep with his arms around my waist.
I couldn't sleep anymore after I lay down again, and I kept wondering, is there really Fu Chengfeng?
Is this really just me dreaming, what ring? What was harmed by a loved one? What helped us get out of here was just a dream?
As soon as dawn broke, Ouyang Deyuan and I got up.
Since we have already eaten all the fish and bear meat we caught, we need to go early today to prepare new food.
We had just come to the water's edge and noticed a strange phenomenon.
A whirlpool appeared in the middle of the water, and it grew larger and larger.
I said uneasily: "Deyuan, don't go into the water to catch fish today, that whirlpool is so big, it looks dangerous, what if you get caught in it?" ”
Ouyang Deyuan also knew that it was very dangerous to go into the water at the moment, but he could starve himself for a few meals, the injuries on the meat bun were not healed, and if he starved her again, how could he be?
He smiled at me and said, "Hehe, you are a good martial artist, how can you be frightened by a small whirlpool." ”
Seeing that he insisted on catching fish, I had no choice but to agree.
I squatted by the water's edge and watched over him, lest anything happen to him.
