Chapter Ninety-Four: Autumn Grass [6]
Yang was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, "Do you really think you're a character?" How many officials have you ever seen who admit reason and don't recognize money?! ”
"That's right." Zhu Yan looked back at Shu and chuckled, "I'm so stingy, I don't want to pay any money, how can this be good?" ”
Seeing that the Yang family was proud again, Zhu Yan's words changed, "But Zhu Yan heard that Master Zhou Rong is also a big official in our place, plus Zhu Yan's 'lover' that you keep talking about, people are big families in the capital, I don't know if the county official will look at their thin noodles and help Zhu Yan?" ”
Yang's face turned white, and a pair of small eyes glared at Zhu Yan viciously, "You are not human!" That weak girl is long dead! You're a demon who borrows the dead to bring back the soul! ”
Zhu Yan's face changed slightly, and then he still smiled, "Auntie, don't stare at it, if you stare it again, it will become hyperthyroidism." ”
Although Yang didn't know what "hyperthyroidism" was, he could guess that what Zhu Yan said was not a good thing, but he couldn't think of anything to block her, so he strode forward, intending to teach her a lesson.
Liu Zixin was about to step forward to stop him, but he saw Yang screaming, then covering his arm, his whole face twitched, and he looked at Zhu Yan in black behind him in a daze, almost as if he had seen a ghost, stretched out his hand and pointed at her stiffly, "What is that?!" It's hex! It's hex! ”
"Yes, I'm already a dead man......" The cool voice was rendered in the night, and a pair of cold eyes did not blink, "General Xu can't see that his descendants are so unproductive, and he sent juniors like me to teach you a lesson...... If you don't want to die, get back to me! ”
Although the voice was not loud, it lingered for a long time in the night air, with an innate command color, and it contained a depressing horror that seemed to come from the underworld.
Yang was stunned by her fright, and felt a trace of hot tingling on his arm, and he was at a loss for a while, and he didn't care to ask what it was, so he hurriedly turned around and walked away.
"Hmph, cowardly as a mouse." Shu watched her hasty back disappear into a small car, and then put away the mechanism in her hand to launch the Hidden Blade, "Sister Yan, take care, I'll go." ”
Mingzi was dumbfounded, and danced beside Zhu Yan, "Sister Yanzi, who is this sister?" Isn't it the kind of woman you said, so powerful! ”
"She ......" Zhu Yan shook her head lightly, and there was a hidden weapon to feed poison around her at all times, it seemed that although she was calm and calm on her face, she was always worried that she would be discovered by the people in the court, "That hidden blade is poisonous?" ”
"It's okay, it will heal itself in three days." Shu lightly narrowed his eyes, and looked deeply at Zhu Yan's unyielding appearance, "Sister Yan, I'll go home." ”
Bai Ping could see from the woman's clothes and arrogance that she was relieved, but seeing that Zhu Yan was a little absent-minded, and she didn't care about it, she hurriedly stepped forward and gently grabbed her, and comforted her in a low voice, "Girl, don't pay attention to that old woman's nonsense, you are tired all day today, go back and drink some lean porridge first, and Bai Ping will cook hot soup for you to bathe." ”
Zhu Yanmu sent Shu to board the car, entered the house and drank the bowl of steaming porridge unwillingly, and was immediately pulled by Bai Apple to the bathroom that had just been cleaned up a few days ago.
Because the weather is getting colder and colder, Zhu Yan made a small storage room into a bath room a few days ago, and hung three layers of thick felt curtains in front of the door, which is low and narrow inside, so that the heat will hardly come out, even if it is a cold winter, it is extremely warm to bathe in it.
Zhu Yan was leaning against the bathtub with his eyes closed at this time, smelling the strong aroma of hosta flowers on the water, wrapped in warm and soft water, and felt that the nerves that had been tense for a day had finally eased.
I don't know how long later, the surrounding darkness was suddenly illuminated by a faint light, Zhu Yan looked around in surprise, surrounded by a strange scene of white grass and red flowers, and there was a shallow stream under his feet spreading across the ground like a swamp, and the sound of gurgling water was still ringing softly in his ears.
Zhu Yan looked around curiously, and Yang's terrible cry suddenly appeared in his ears, "You are not human!" You are a demon who has borrowed the dead to bring back the soul! ”
Zhu Yan was suddenly frightened, just tripped over a stalk of grass on the ground, and fell straight to the place where the artemisia grass was overgrown, the white inflorescence pounced in front of her, and the real touch on her face made her even more surprised, just wanted to sit up on the ground, and touched a scarlet flower branch in her hand, the slender filaments and delicately shaped petals suddenly evoked some memories of her.
This is the flower of Lycoris, which is often mentioned in the story, blooming on both sides of the River Styx, which can remind people of the memories of their previous lives......
Zhu Yan's hands trembled slightly, covering his dizzy head and shaking, could it be that he was really dead? Could it be that the previous life in the small village, as well as Xu Suzhen, Shu, and Yuan Rin, are all memories of their previous lives?
Out of her mind, the water in the swamp was slowly rising, until it reached Zhu Yan's neck, but she still didn't notice it.
"Resurrection by the corpse...... Target...... Devil? Zhu Yan shook his head slightly, stirring up a string of ripples on the water, "I really ...... Be......? ”
"Girl!" Bai Ping turned the screen with clean clothes, but saw Zhu Yan falling asleep in the bathtub, her good-looking eyebrows were still frowning, and she hurriedly woke her up, "Wake up, girl!" When you fall asleep, what do you say in your sleep? ”
When she opened her eyes and saw that it was Bai Apple, Zhu Yan looked at her for a long time, slowly breathed a sigh of relief, smiled tiredly, and whispered like a whisper, "Bai Apple...... Say, "Am I like a living man?" ”
Bai Yu raised his eyebrows, squatted down and reached out to reach out to her forehead, touched his forehead again, and flattened his mouth worriedly, "I don't have a fever, why is my mouth full of nonsense......"
Zhu Yan shook his head, stopped talking, and then took a deep breath of moist air, the touch of the warm bath around his body was the real reality, and those weird scenes should be just dreams, but he didn't think that he took it seriously. But when you think about it, you can even encounter such a thing as crossing over, maybe the ghost thing is also possible?
After entangled for a moment, seeing that Bai Ping was still looking at her with a worried face, Zhu Yan hurriedly smiled, "Don't worry, I'll tease you." ”
Bai Apple's face fell, but his eyebrows were relaxed, "That is to say, how can such a transparent person as a girl say such stupid things, can say that she can move, how can she ask herself if she is a living person?" ”
"Yes, if you can say that you can move, why aren't you alive?" Zhu Yan repeated with a smile, but his heart was still sullen and a little uncomfortable.
Bai Apple had already pulled her out of the bathtub, "It's stuffy here, don't stay too long, the girl is tired today, Bai Apple is waiting for you to go to sleep, Xiao An went home, Bai Apple lived in the room outside the girl, okay?" In the end, she was still a little worried about Zhu Yan.
