Chapter 20: Jiang Yue's Memories (I)

Twelve o'clock in the night.

As instructed by the master, I first sprinkled the glutinous rice on the ground and formed a circle that could hold three people. I sat in the circle and placed the bowl with the water across from me.

I lit a piece of rune paper and quickly lowered it into the water. When the talisman ash floated to the water, I closed my eyes tightly and kept chanting the names of Jiang Yue and Zeng Ke in my mouth.

After a dozen or so big concepts, I felt the wind chimes on my wrist vibrate. It occurred to me that ghosts are afraid of this. I hurriedly ran downstairs and put the wind chimes on the coffee table.

As soon as I went up, I saw a woman standing in a rice circle with her back to me. I wondered why there was one person missing, so I walked over nervously.

"Jiang Yue?" I let out a tentative scream.

She turned her head slowly, her face very pale, but her face was still as beautiful as the first time I met her.

She said apologetically, "I'm really sorry, I shouldn't have hurt you in the first place." ”

I waved my hand and smiled nonchalantly, "If you hadn't told me how to escape at the time, maybe I would have gone to the Netherworld to report now." ”

She smiled sheepishly.

The master told me that there was a time limit for this spiritualist technique. When all the rice is gone, her soul will return to the underworld.

I didn't think much about it, I just asked her what was going on with her, and who had arrested me and Zeng Ke.

Tears were streaming down her cheeks. She gently reached out to me, her fingertips lightly touching my eyebrows.

I was a little sleepy, and I only heard Jiang Yue say softly: "Don't be afraid, now you will enter my memories." There will be the answers you need. ”

As soon as I opened my eyes, there were Zeng Ke and Jiang Yue in front of me. But they passed by me as if they didn't see me.

I turned to follow them, and saw the two of them walking hand in hand, talking and laughing, into an antique shop. I stopped in front of the store and paid special attention to the name of this antique store - Qingcheng Antique Store.

This antique shop looks like it's been around for a while. A middle-aged woman wearing a cheongsam stood in front of a cabinet in the store, smiling and greeting them. Soon, the woman pulled out an old box from the back room. But Jiang Yue and Zeng Ke didn't open it.

The camera suddenly turned, and I seemed to fall into another memory of Jiang Yue. They returned to their home in Xiluyuan, and Zeng Ke couldn't wait to open the box. I looked over and found that the box contained a huge wood carving in the shape of a lingzhi. The wood carving flashed with a red light. But this scene did not attract their attention. Zeng Ke was very happy to put the wood carving in a cupboard in the study.

I stumbled upon my desk, only to find that the greenery on it was withering at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye. Surprised, the scene in front of me changed again.

Jiang Yue was wearing a white sweatshirt at this time and was standing in the living room. She said angrily to Zeng Ke: "Why didn't you throw away that broken wood carving? It's going to hurt us! ”

Zeng Ke's brows furrowed. He lowered his head and lit a cigarette and took a quiet puff. His silence made Jiang Yue even angrier. Jiang Yue rushed into the study and opened the cabinet door in a frenzy. Zeng Ke realized that she might have smashed a stone, and immediately threw away the unfinished cigarette and ran over to stop her. But Jiang Yue had already got the wood carving in her hand, and she threw it to the ground angrily.

As soon as the wood carving hit the ground, a blood-red mass was revealed inside. I seem to have inadvertently seen it squirm. Jiang Yue was stunned for the previous scene, but Zeng Ke didn't have any expression.

Jiang Yue came back to her senses and asked in disbelief: "Did you already know that there was this thing in the wood carving?" ”

Zeng Ke was still silent.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Jiang Yue shouted, "Why don't you say it? Why hide it from me? ”

Zeng Ke did not speak. He just crouched down silently, patiently picking up the pieces on the ground. Jiang Yue saw that he didn't say anything, so she slammed the door angrily and left.

Zeng Ke didn't catch up, he just carefully picked up the blood-colored unknown object.

As soon as Jiang Yue went out, tears fell from her face. She couldn't understand why her former lover had become like this. She accidentally cried, lonely and helpless.

She walked a long way, walked into the park, and sat down on a bench. She looked up at the crescent moon in amazement. But she didn't notice a figure in the grass not far away. Because of my myopia, I can only see more clearly by walking closer.

Just as I reached the grass, the figure suddenly disappeared. I heard movement behind me, and I turned around suddenly, only to see Jiang Yue get up and leave. As soon as she got out of the park, she walked in the direction of Yujian Road. I followed uneasily.

Yujian Road is sparsely populated. I followed Jiang Yue closely, only to find a girl walking towards me. I couldn't help but move forward, slowly approaching her. When I saw her face clearly, I was stunned for a few seconds before I realized: Isn't this me?

Then, not surprisingly, Jiang Yue will ...... after a while

A gust of wind blew, and the sand that blew from nowhere fascinated the eyes of "me" on the other side. I didn't have time to think about it, and looked around for Jiang Yue's figure. In a trance, I saw her walk to the middle of the road with a blank expression. At that moment, a car sped by, and its piercing car horn almost pierced my eardrums.

I shouted Jiang Yue's name, but I suddenly remembered that what I was doing now would not help. Jiang Yue had fallen in a pool of blood. Her white sweatshirt was dyed red and white. A middle-aged man with a mustache got out of the car in a panic to see Jiang Yue. After confirming that Jiang Yue was dead, he was so frightened that he took several steps back. He got into the car in a daze, stepped on the accelerator and left quickly. I jot down the license plate number as best I can in just a few seconds. I thought that I would go to the police station and call the police as soon as I got back.

It turned out that when I rubbed my eyes that night, Jiang Yue was hit by a car. The most suspicious thing is, why did Jiang Yue walk to the middle of the road? It was as if she had been controlled. Could it be that the man in the grass just did it?

A gentle voice broke the silence.

"Need help?"

"I", who was still rubbing his eyes, nodded hurriedly: "The wind blew the sand into my eyes just now, can you blow it for me?" ”

I watched Jiang Yue patiently blow away the sand from "my" eyes. I don't know why, the clear gaze in her eyes is not at all the same as the one she had just rushed to the car. But she still acted as if nothing had happened, didn't she know that something had happened to her at that time?

"Thank you so much." The "I" looked at her with a smile.

"It's fine." Jiang Yue smiled slightly.

"I" stretched out her hand to rub her eyes, and she quickly stretched out her hand to stop her: "Don't rub it, there are bacteria on your hands." ”

The rest is exactly the same as it happened that night.

The picture then turned again. It was like I had fallen into a huge black hole and couldn't see anything, which was so depressing. Suddenly, Jiang Yue's hysterical cry came from his ears.

A familiar, ghostly voice came into my ears: "Awake? ”

At this moment, a light from nowhere illuminated the darkness. A woman in a blood-red dress descended from the sky. The dress looked extravagant, with a phoenix embroidered with gold thread. Her black hair was like a waterfall, draped over her shoulders, like an immortal. Although she wears a veil, her eyes that are light and rippling with autumn water really make people can't take their eyes off.

Jiang Yue got up from the ground and asked, "Who are you?" ”

"It doesn't matter who I am. But I can help you get out of this infinite loop. She raised her eyebrows and looked at Jiang Yue in front of her arrogantly.

"So how am I going to get out?" Jiang Yue still gave in.

The woman stretched out her jade hand, touched her hair, and chuckled: "I can help you get out, and even help you rejuvenate." But you have to promise me one thing - kill Zeng Ke. ”

Jiang Yue looked at her in surprise, and then said resolutely, "I'd rather fall into this endless darkness than kill him." I won't promise you. ”

After hearing this, she clapped her hands and laughed, and looked at Jiang Yue sarcastically: "Aren't you curious why he didn't throw away that thing?" The woman approached her step by step, and Jiang Yue did not retreat, but Jiang Yue's gaze was not as firm as it was at the beginning. She pursed her lips and remained silent.

"He wants to kill you. Don't you know yet? Men don't have a good thing. He knew that there was an ancient blood Tai Sui in the wood carving, but he still spent a lot of money to buy it. All he wants is your money, your beauty. But he doesn't value you, does he? The woman in red sneered.

"There's no such thing at all. Why should I believe you? Jiang Yue turned her head and avoided her eyes.

As soon as the woman in red waved her sleeves, a picture of Jiang Yue being hit by a car appeared in front of her. Jiang Yue was taken aback, but quickly calmed down. She watched intently as she had died.

But the scene when the driver got out of the car stunned me and Jiang Yue. The person who got out of the car turned out to be Zeng Ke!

Jiang Yue shook her head in disbelief, but tears had already betrayed her inner collapse.

It's all that woman's scam. She just wanted Jiang Yue to kill Zeng Ke. I stomped my foot anxiously, trying to tell Jiang Yue the truth, but she couldn't hear it at all.

The woman in red turned her face sideways and continued to say in her voice full of bewitchment and etherealism, "You should believe it now, right? It was he who killed you and caused you to walk in the dead cycle of this Yujian Road. I can resurrect you, but you'll have to kill Zeng. ”

Jiang Yue's eyes suddenly became dull. The woman in red whispered a few more words in her ear, and she followed behind the woman in red like a marionette.

"Go ahead and kill him."

Not far away, suddenly there was a corpse that smelled of foul odor. I looked closely, only to find that Jiang Yue's body was about to decompose lying on the ground. She walked over, then lay down, merging with the corpse.

The woman in red quietly put a letter in Jiang Yue's hand. Jiang Yue's eyes opened suddenly, and then she stood up, walked forward mechanically, and disappeared into a huge circle of light.

I always felt like there was a pair of eyes behind me. But I didn't dare to look back, and I didn't have time to turn back, as soon as the picture turned, Jiang Yue had already returned to Xiluyuan. It seems that she is going to find Zeng Ke. Strangely, as soon as she approached the door of her house, a golden light shot out of the door. Jiang Yue took several steps back in fear. Later, she turned around and disappeared.

Next, it's time to go and deliver a letter to me. I don't want to repeat that memory. For me, it's a lifelong psychological shadow.
