Chapter 211 Comfrey Paste (4)
"Try this." Xing Ruyi casually took out a jar of lipstick from the counter and handed it to Red Sleeves.
"You should be the kind of girl who was born with white skin, and there are no blemishes on the surface of the skin, no matter what color of lipstick it is, it's suitable."
"Am I white?" Red Sleeves stretched out his hand and looked at it: "Probably because I became a ghost, that's why you think I'm white, girl." ”
"This ghost is also a human being, he is not white when he is alive, and he can still hope to become white after he dies?" Xing Ruyi shook his head: "A girl like you, who is naturally good-looking, is always so modest. Well, let's try it now. ”
"May I?" Red Sleeves first looked at Xing Ruyi, and then at Meng Zilin: "Since I became like this, I have never been able to touch anything again." ”
"Then you can try again." Xing Ruyi smiled.
Redsleeves hesitated for a moment, then reached out and took the jar of lipstick. The imaginary picture did not happen, and Red Sleeves looked at the lipstick that he had taken into his hand, a little incredulous.
"I didn't lie to you, my wishful rouge shop is a best-selling thing in the Yin and Yang worlds."
"Red Sleeves, try it." Meng Zilin urged.
Redsleeves hesitated, opened the lipstick, and gently dipped his fingertips on his lips.
"Is it pretty?"
"Beautiful." The corners of Meng Zilin's mouth also rose: "It's better than I imagined." ”
"Am I ugly?"
"It's not ugly, you're beautiful. It's just that the complexion is a little worse. Meng Zilin's eyes darkened: "It's a pity that I can't touch you, if I can, I want to personally apply lipstick for you, paint your thrush, and comb your hair." I know I'm clumsy and can't do it well, but I want to give it a try, just for you. ”
"Next life." Red Sleeves looked at Meng Zilin: "If I can still meet you in the next life, I will definitely marry you and become your lady." Let you help me comb my hair, help me with my thrush, and help me apply lipstick. ”
"Red Sleeves!"
"Zilin, it's time for me to go."
"Where are you going?"
"Go where I'm supposed to be." Red Sleeves turned to look outside: "The revenge that should be avenged, revenge." Those who should be protected, protected. I love the people I should love. I have what I should enjoy to be loved. Although I have experienced a lot of bad things in my life, and it is very short, I have no regrets. Because, I met you, Zilin. I know that you don't want me to leave, and I don't want to leave you, but Zilin, you and I can't stay together for a long time after all. ”
"Who said it couldn't." Meng Zilin reached out to hug the red sleeves, but he pounced.
"Don't go, don't go, we're living like before. I'm free now, and I have more time to spend with you. If you are not satisfied, or are afraid that I will return to the battlefield, I can also resign. I can take you home or go to your hometown. ”
"Fools, we can't live like we used to be." Red Sleeves looked back and smiled, his smile was full of bitterness and helplessness: "You are not young anymore, and it is time to marry a wife." You also know that I am a very small-minded person, and I can't watch you marry another woman, I can't watch you treat her well, and I can't watch you have children and a happy life for a few families. I'll be sad, I'll be sad, and maybe I'll do something horrible because of my jealousy. Zilin, I'm a ghost, I'm a ghost who has killed people, once I get angry, I don't even know what I'll do. I want to leave while you still like me, while you don't hate me yet. In this way, when you remember me in the future, remember that it is my good, not my bad. ”
"I won't marry a wife, I won't marry anyone but you."
"You'll marry." Red Sleeves looked at Meng Zilin very seriously: "When I returned to Beijing, I accidentally overheard the conversation between the general and another adult. He had a daughter of your age, and she was a very good person. The general acted as a matchmaker and recommended you to the adult, who was very happy with you. A few days ago, I secretly went to the lord's house and met the young lady, and I also thought that she was very suitable for you. Zilin, the red sleeves are just a passerby after all, you still have a long life, you need a real lady to spend with you. Don't worry, I'm not sad. On the contrary, I am happy for you, you are a good person, and you deserve better. ”
"Woo, I'm so moved, why does this kind of thing always appear in this world that obviously loves each other, but is separated by yin and yang." Xing Ruyi leaned back and leaned on the fox that appeared at some point: "I feel like I'm going to cry to death." ”
"Your eyes hurt when you cry." The fox whispered, "Do you want to help them?" ”
"How can I help, this red sleeve has been dead for a long time, even if you have a good relationship with the person below, you can't let her return to yang." Xing Ruyi muttered in a low voice: "Besides, such a thing as changing the book of life and death, Sun Wukong has done it alone throughout the ages, let's say goodbye." ”
"You're thinking too much." The fox nodded the tip of Xing Ruyi's nose: "I have a pill here, after taking it, I can let this red-sleeved girl live in the world for three days in the form of a human being." ”
"Three days!"
"Yes, three days!"
"Are there any side effects, such as three days later, the soul is gone?"
"It's not that scary. This pill is made from the Nether Grass of the underworld, and after taking it, it will leave an aura exclusive to the underworld, and the ghost cha can easily find the red-sleeved girl according to this breath. ”
"I see. If she didn't take this pill, the red-sleeved girl would be able to hide in the human world as before, and she could always be by Meng Zilin's side in the form of a ghost. But people and ghosts have different paths, and people and ghosts are tired of being together for a long time, and people are easily invaded by yin qi, and this Meng Zilin will have a short life nine times out of ten, and it is very likely that he will not die well. When the time comes, whether the red-sleeved girl will calmly go to the underworld to report, or have other ideas, no one can say.
If she took this pill, the red-sleeved girl could stay with Meng Zilin as a normal person, even if it was only for three days, it was very rare for them. If it were me, I would choose the latter. Use these three days to do everything you need to do and what you want to do, and then quietly wait for the ghost to come to the door. ”
"If it were me, I would choose the latter, and the companionship that can be seen and touched is the real companionship." The fox held Xing Ruyi's hand: "So, don't question me anymore, every day I accompany you, I am very serious." ”
"Stinky fox, when you say these words, you don't feel sorry. Every day that is still with me is serious, God knows, you stay in that corner every day. When I open my eyes this morning, I can't see you, I can't see you at noon, and when I go to bed at night, I still can't see you. Who do you accompany, you tell me, who do you accompany in the end? Xing Ruyi poked one finger after another, "It's just that I'm so angry that I don't care about you, the stinky fox." As for the pills, take them out quickly. ”
The fox stretched out his hand, and in his palm lay a terrifying-looking, dark green pill.
"Are you sure this is edible? Looks like poison. ”
"Nether grass itself is green,"
"I know it's green, but you don't have to make the pill green too. Is black bad? Xing Ruyi pinched the pill with some disgust: "Have you passed Qingqiu's pharmaceutical technology?" It's okay for others to eat it, but it's terrible for ghosts to eat it. ”
"Don't worry, it'll be fine." The fox is also accustomed to Xing Ruyi's disgusted gaze.
handed the pill to Red Sleeves, and explained how to use the pills, as for whether Red Sleeves wanted to eat it or not, it was Red Sleeves' own business.
Meng Zilin left, leaving with red sleeves, but before he left, he forgot to pay the money for the jar of lipstick just now. Xing Ruyi wanted to catch up and ask for it, but looking at the way he was separated from the red sleeves by yin and yang, he couldn't bear it. After thinking about it, forget it, anyway, she doesn't lack the money to sell a can of lipstick, if she really needs to be missing, let the fox find a way to earn it back, but it really can't work, so she went to the palace and sold it in the ghost market.
The ghost market in Luoyang City is a very mysterious existence. No one predicted, no one advertised, no one even shouted, but they would appear on time every day, and then disappear without a trace before dawn.
No one knows where the shopkeeper who sells goods in the ghost market comes from, and no one knows who those who come to buy the goods are. Everyone wore black cloaks and covered themselves tightly. When you go to the ghost market, you are silent, and when you make a deal, you are also quiet. All items in this ghost market are clearly priced, and they refuse to bargain. If you think it's worth it, buy it, and if you think it's not worth it, look for it again.
Since coming here, Xing Ruyi has only been to the ghost market with the fox once, she bought some medicinal herbs that are not common in Luoyang City, and the fox bought a stone that looked very ordinary, and then put the stone in the room where she slept.
If it had been her habit, she would have chased the fox and asked where the stone had come from, what it had done, why it had been placed in her room, and so on. But strangely, she didn't ask, the fox didn't say, and it didn't seem like he wanted to explain to her. Later, as the days passed, no one paid attention to the stone anymore.
"Speaking of which, it's been a long time since you've taken me to the ghost market." Xing Ruyi hugged the fox's arm: "Otherwise, let's go and take a look." ”
"What do you want to buy?"
"If you don't buy something, can't you stop shopping?"
"Yes, as long as you get up." The fox stretched out his hand, and the door of the Ruyi Rouge Shop was closed: "It's closed, I'll accompany you to dinner." ”
"It's not time to eat yet, what kind of food?"
"Qingqiu's rice, do you want to taste it?"
"You do?" Xing Ruyi looked up at the fox: "It can't be grass leaves, meat insects or something, right?" By the way, what do you foxes usually eat? ”
"I don't know what ordinary foxes eat, but our Qingqiu nine-tailed fox clan eats people." The fox said, bowed his head, and bit on Xing Ruyi's neck.
