Who remembers the memories of their past lives?
Yes, I don't remember either. Forgotten, exactly.
I forgot how I lost my life at that time, and how I got the ability to live forever, and then lived for thousands of years......
21st century, Shanghai.
The city center is like the heart of the city, with a complex of people coming and going. The women can still walk like a fly in the 12-centimeter high heels, as if they want to use the highest posture to trample the fast-rotating city on the soles of their feet.
The high-end women's clothing area of Hang Lung Plaza is not crowded with customers in the morning, only the sound of a pair of high heels is leisurely shuttling.
The clerks still had the expression of not waking up, but when they saw the customers who walked into the shoe showcase, they immediately put on an expression as if they had won the lottery.
"This, this...... This, and that, ...... with that."
I stuck out my fingers studded with rhinestone nails and randomly ordered a dozen pairs of shoes on the display case.
And the clerks around him almost fainted with excitement.
I reached for the vibrating phone in my bag and clicked on the screen: "Hey? What's the matter? ”
"I warn you, don't think of yourself too much as a human, your current skin won't last long, you'd better ......"
I threw my phone out of the perfect parabola, and it fell victim to the trash.
It is conceivable that the people on the other side of the organization must be jumping in anger.
From ancient times to the present day, there has always been a mysterious organization with no name and irregular members. We share a common trait –
Immortal.
Not dead, but not old.
The organization encloses us for planning and management to ensure that we have a quality of life. We can freely travel through the time that has already existed, find some people who have been forgotten by history, and make an equivalent exchange, so as to get human skin for our own use.
In this way, you can keep your appearance ageless and unnoticed.
"Miss, do you have to wrap it all up?"
"I'm in a hurry, I don't want any of that just now."
It's like getting the winning lottery ticket, but being blown away by the wind when claiming the prize, this mood has been fully displayed on the face of the clerk.
I stuck on my black toad sunglasses, and took out a gold card and a note between my fingers: "Wrap everything else up for me and send it to this address." ”
With the clerks looking like a god, I gracefully and passionately stepped out of the showcase, with my high heels like a cone.
"Skin, skin...... Where to find the next skin? ”
The soul of that beautiful face and fragrant taste......

Emperor Hui 5th year, October
White snow mixed with strong winds surrounded the entire Chang'an City. The layers of glazed tiles on Weiyang Palace can't escape this funeral-like whiteness, washing away the unruly colors of the past. It was like a phoenix bird with a phoenix tail put away, and completely fell asleep in the dark night.
And the beauty of Zhaoyang Palace, who was pregnant with a child in October, chose to come in this cold hour.
The dim light supported by only a few candles, and the smell of blood that permeated the entire palace, made people feel more and more disgusting even if they took a closer step.
"It's been an hour, and you still can't give birth?"
"Chang Meiren was born prematurely, I'm afraid it's not easy to give birth!"
Mama Su, who was beside the Queen Mother, stood beside the bed urging, the trance candlelight shone on her gloomy face, and the expression was not a prince waiting to be born, but more like an executioner.
Xu is time is too long, Mama Su completely lost her patience, and glared at Wen Po: "Hurry up and finish." ”
Wen Po nodded knowingly, and the force in her hand began to increase. No matter how terrible the screams of the woman on the bed were, she also dragged the child out by force.
"Don't ...... No! ”
The blood gushing out of the mattress was wantonly all over the mattress, illuminated by the dim lamp, and the red color was like a sunset burned by fire, fishy and dazzling.
With the last cry of the woman, who was almost dumb, the child finally came out and let out the first cry.
"The child of Hongu ......"
"Your child?" Mama Su sneered and hugged the baby who was still stuck to the blood in the swaddling clothes to the side: "Who said it was your child?" That handsome prince was born to the queen's mother. ”
After a moment of sluggishness, the woman's frightened pupils continued to dilate. Only then did I know that this was a well-arranged conspiracy!
"Can a fourteen-year-old queen have a child? Do you think you can hide such nonsense? The palace wants to see the emperor...... Let me see the emperor! ……”
Mama Su pinched her fair and delicate chin: "Don't be delusional, the emperor won't come." The Queen Mother has a will, Chang Meiren died of blood, and the child died young, so as to avoid disturbing the joy of the queen's birth of a child, and she will not mourn. In addition, the Queen Mother also rewarded Chang Meiren with a thing. ”
The intricately carved square plate was covered with yellow silk, but underneath it was a cold wine bottle.
"Wine, the Queen Mother specially instructed Chang Meiren to taste it."
She struggled to fall off the bed and fell on the ice-like floor tiles: "You are so ruthless and ruthless, are you not afraid of retribution?" Lu Pheasant is tyrannical and brutalizes people's lives, I won't let you go! ……”
"If you really have the ability to ask for your life, then wait until you become a ghost! Feed her! ”
Her struggle as a mother is like a grasshopper shaking a tree, and she cannot tolerate any resistance. A pair of hands that wanted her life, like demons in the night, poured the bitter drink into her mouth.
The moment he fell to the ground, his eyes were filled with blood-red snowflakes, the color of hell.
But Chang Xi could clearly see a strangely dressed woman suddenly standing in front of her.
"You...... Who are you......" A pool of blood spat out of her mouth, and she collapsed on the blood-stained bed.
At this moment, a clear voice sounded......
Want to live?
"Want to ......"
Want revenge?
"Want to ......"
Even if it costs anything?
"I'm dead, what ...... am I afraid of?"
She didn't know who she was talking to, and she couldn't see the woman's appearance until she closed her eyes at the end of the day. That's all there is to ......
"I will extend your life in the world by three years, in exchange, you will sign a human skin contract with me, reincarnate in your previous life, and never be reborn......"
