The night fell, like the night of millions of small towns, and the ghosts cried from the ghost towns where the dead were entrenched more than ten miles away, and the boundless grievances and sorrows penetrated into the ears and hearts.

Ruoxin lay quietly on the bed. When she woke up, she found herself back at the town's inn. The mind was groggy, the memories in the ghost town were blurred and broken, but every time she thought about the end, there would always be a smiling face without sorrow in front of her eyes, and she would always see those black and pure clean eyes, and she couldn't help but hold the black wood in her palm that had never let go.

Closing her eyes vigorously, Ruoxin exhaled deeply, and then slowly sat up.

The door was gently pushed open, and Fenghua walked into the room with a basin of water in his hand.

"Are you awake?" Seeing that Ruoxin was about to get up, Fenghua put the wooden basin on the table, walked to the bed, and helped her up with one hand around her back. Removing the wet cloth towel from Ruoxin's forehead, Fenghua probed her forehead with her hand, and the coolness transmitted from her palm made her drowsy mind sober up a little.

"Your hands are so cold." Ruoxin said with a smile, but her voice was hoarse and deep, which was really not as good as the spirit of the past.

Fenghua removed his hand and said softly, "It's you who have a fever." ”

With a sigh in her mouth, Ruoxin said indifferently: "Really? It doesn't matter, I've always been in good health, but I've had two minor illnesses once in a while. The mournful wail outside the window came faintly, Ruoxin's long eyelashes trembled, she bent the corners of her mouth, as if nothing happened, and smiled: "The night here is really unstable. Fenghua ...... I decided to go back to Dongheng tomorrow. ”

Fenghua quietly looked at her smiling face, and her heart twitched slightly. After a pause, Fenghua answered softly, "Hmm." ”

"What about you?"

The candlelight was dim, and the handsome face with a sparse demeanor had a soft expression, "Since you found the Imperial Ghost Kuroki, now I don't have to stay." Staring at Ruoxin's eyes without the slightest brilliance, Fenghua said again: "Pack up tonight, and I will leave tomorrow." ”

"You're leaving tomorrow too." Ruoxin smiled, looked down at the Miki Kuroki who had been ironed warm by her body temperature, and then clasped her palms.

"When I came, there were five people with me, and when I went back, there were five people......" The words paused, Ruoxin still wanted to laugh, but unfortunately the curvature of her lips could not be raised. After a long pause, she exhaled and said, "However, there is another person who has been left behind forever. ”

"Ruo'er......" Fenghua sat on the edge of Ruoxin's bed, his eyes were full of worry, and he slowly put his hand on her shoulder.

Her body trembled slightly, Ruoxin lowered her eyes and smiled, "That stupid boy, he knew how dangerous the ghost town was, and he followed him all the way from the capital to here." Obviously a person who is so afraid of ghosts.,And patted his chest and said that he would definitely help me find the ghost Kuroki.。 He must not have known that the expression on his face along the way was like he was about to cry. ”

Her voice was choked with trembling, Ruoxin raised her head and took a deep breath, suppressing her emotions, the corners of her lips rose, but there was a sad smile on her face, and said, "Now it's okay, he helped me find the ghost Kuroki, but he lost his life." If he knew that there would be such an ending today, he must have regretted it in his heart, it is better to be his carefree and arrogant young master in Wanchun County, dressed like a peacock every day, swaggering around the streets and alleys. ”

Thinking back to the first meeting with Guan Jingtian, the eldest young master was arrogant and domineering, and she was screaming at her. Fighting with her, but always doing some children's tricks, obviously a timid kitten, but always feeling like a tiger.

Thinking back to the beginning, one thing after another was vivid, Ruoxin blinked, tried her best to hide the vague mist in her eyes, and said with a smile: "I really shouldn't have brought him here, it's my fault that I can't measure myself and overestimate myself, thinking that I am still Bai Ruoxin when I was a priest, and I think that if I am by his side and watching him, he will definitely not have an accident, it is my fault." Guan Jingtian's eyes before he disappeared with Kuroki reappeared in her mind over and over again, he died before he realized what had happened, those innocent and helpless eyes seemed to pierce her heart with a sharp cone, "It happened suddenly, he didn't expect that he would die at that time......"

Ruoxin bit her lower lip stubbornly, although she was smiling on her face, her strong sad emotions were deeply transmitted to Fenghua's heart.

"Don't blame yourself anymore, it's not your fault, no one wants something like this to happen." Fenghua leaned down and gently circled Ruoxin's trembling body into his arms, he slowly stroked her back, with a distressed look in his eyes, and said softly: "Don't suppress yourself, cry out when you're sad, I'm by your side." ”

The warmth of peace came from Fenghua's chest, and Ruoxin finally couldn't hold back the grief that had been suppressed all night, as if a flood burst the embankment. She hugged Fenghua's waist tightly, buried her head in his arms and cried bitterly.

"He's only twenty years old, he's still so young, his life hasn't even begun, and everything has been ruined by me." The uncontrollable pain turned into tears and soaked Fenghua's clothes, "He said he wanted to help me, but if I knew that the end of helping me would be death, I would rather die myself than bring him here." ”

If she could hold on a little longer in the capital, if she could hold on a little longer outside the ghost town, if she insisted on not letting him follow him into that dangerous ghost town, he would not have encountered such a thing at all.

A choked cry came intermittently from Fenghua's arms, "I hurt him." Let him die in a ghost town, and now he can't even find his bones. ”

Fenghua always listened quietly, he didn't stop Ruoxin from venting the sadness that he had been suppressing and restrained, he just wrapped her in his arms and gently soothed her back, her dark gray eyes were full of pity and distress.

......

I don't know how long I cried, Ruoxin, who was already exhausted, finally fell asleep, but she still seemed to be sleeping unsteadily. Ruoxin made a dream from time to time in her sleep, and her throat made a sound similar to a whimper, Fenghua leaned on the head of the bed, gently hugged Ruoxin who had fallen asleep, removed the dry and hard pillow, and held Ruoxin's head to pill on his arm.

Fenghua raised his sleeves and gently wiped away the tears on Ruoxin's face, gently stroked the deep folds of her eyebrows with her hand, and said slowly: "If I can save your life, even if it accompanies my life, I am willing, that child must think the same way." You have to live well, or his sacrifice will be in vain. ”

Fenghua gently soothed Ruoxin, who was entangled in nightmares, quieted down, and her breathing gradually eased and evenly.

"I don't know if you'd be so sad if I died." Ruoxin, who was sleeping, had two lines of tears flowing down her already wiped cheeks. Fenghua looked at her softly, stroked Ruoxin's face with pity, and said softly: "If you will be sad, then I will try to live, and the sadness carried by the people left behind should not burden you anymore." I really feel distressed to see you like this. ”

The cyan bed curtain and the graceful embrace cut off the ghostly night cry outside the inn, and the person in the arms finally slept peacefully.

......

Early the next morning, Ruoxin, who had everything in order, was ready to embark on the return journey.

In front of the inn, Ruoxin and Fenghua stood face to face, the carriage stopped aside, and indifferently lay inside. After learning of Guan Jingtian's death, she also cried all night, and the whole person had cried a little prostration, and now she is unconscious.

Restored to his original appearance, Chenlian put on another carriage on the side, while Tsing Yi put their bags on the carriage.

Ruoxin retracted her gaze, looked at Fenghua, and said, "We're ready to set off back to Dongheng." Kelan Capital City and Dongheng route are opposite, let's say goodbye here. ”

Ruoxin's voice was hoarse and slightly coughing. Tsing Yi took out a coat from the burden in his hand, Fenghua slowly walked up to Ruoxin and put it on her, and said softly: "I'll go back with you." ”
