Chapter 207: Udon (4)

"I ...... I don't remember. Chen Dezhi muttered: "I really don't remember. ”

It's not that I don't remember, but I don't want to remember, and I don't want to remember.

Chen Dewang met Wanru on the way to escape, both of them are from Lingnan, and it is a rare thing to meet a fellow countryman with the same tone as himself on the long way to escape. At that time, it was as if he was sick, and coupled with the long journey, the whole person was as thin as a piece of paper, which could be blown away by the wind. Chen Dezhi couldn't bear to let her die on the road, so he dragged her slowly. Chen Dezhi had a master when he was a child, and the master was a walking man, who taught him a lot of herbs. It was by picking herbs that he saved Wanru's life.

Afterwards, Chen Dezhi also asked himself if he would have done this if he had met someone else on the road instead of Wanru. The answer is, not necessarily. The reason why Chen Dezhi feels pity for Wanru, and even pity, is largely due to the fact that she is like a beautiful girl, even if she is thin into a paper man, she is still a distressing beautiful girl.

Of course, he won't tell Wanru about this, and he won't admit it himself.

The incident that Xing Ruyi asked him about happened when he had just left the Lingnan realm. At that time, as if he was very sick, he heard from his master that there was a kind of herb that could bring people back to life, but that medicine only grew in places with many graves.

The village where they stayed was called Gugu's Village, and not far from Gugu's Village, there was a mass grave slope. The people buried on the slope of the mass grave were not from Gugu's village, but the place where the Tang army strangled the Sui people. Because it was so gloomy, no one dared to go in broad daylight. The kind of herb that Chen Dezhi needs is only available in that place in his aunt's village.

Under the guidance of the villagers, Chen Dezhi went to that place.

But the closer he got to the mass grave slope, the bigger the fog became, and the surrounding barren grass made people feel intimidated, and just when Chen Dezhi was hesitating whether to return the same way, he heard someone calling his name.

Chen Dezhi looked at the front with a sweet head.

Not far away, a tall mansion appeared, the courtyard door was dyed with red paint, the kind of blood red, but the courtyard wall was white.

At the door, a girl in red stood there, waving to him from afar.

"Chen Dezhi, come here!"

"Who are you? How do you know my name? ”

"It was the people from my aunt's village who told me, and they said that your name is Chen Dezhi and you are here to collect medicine. Come on, come to my house, I have a lot of herbs in my house that you need. ”

The girl in red continued to wave at him, as if he could see her smile at the corner of her mouth, but he couldn't see her eyes.

"Chen Dezhi, come on, I'm waiting for you."

Chen Dezhi didn't know what happened to him at that time, but under the constant call of the girl in red, he took mechanical steps and slowly walked towards the girl, towards the courtyard with red doors and white walls.

When he walked up to the girl, and followed the girl's guidance, and was about to lift his feet and step up the steps, he suddenly heard a sound like this, followed by a cool breeze swirling overhead, and he stopped in an instant, and the person also came to his senses.

In front of me, there was still a courtyard, only a mound of graves buried in the barren grass.

Chen Dezhi didn't know what the scene just happened was, whether it was a hallucination caused by fear in his heart, or if he really saw a ghost. He looked at the high and low graves around him, only to feel that his legs were weak, his body leaned back, and he fell into a hole with a "bang".

The cave was very large, but he was so frightened that he did not have the courage to observe the situation in the cave, and he was anxious to find a way out. Just as he tried to grab the wild grass with his hands, trying to use the power of the wild grass to climb out, he actually smeared something sticky and greasy. I didn't have time to see what it was, so I erased it.

As he erased the things, he seemed to hear a burst of laughter, a very shallow laugh. He was so frightened that he grabbed the grass and crawled out of the hole. When he climbed out of the hole, he happened to see the herbs he needed, so he grabbed some casually, and hurried back to the village.

After returning to the village, Chen Dezhi also asked the people in his aunt's village about the situation of the mass grave slope. Villagers said that the mass grave slope had been around for a long time, and the last time villagers saw anyone entered, except for Chen Dezhi, was decades ago. It must have been evening, and the villagers had eaten dinner and were about to rest, when they heard the sound of horses' hooves and wheels outside. When he came out, he saw a group of soldiers, some on horseback and some on foot. These were not the freshest, the freshest thing was that the soldiers were all dressed in black, and their faces were obscured, and only two eyes remained. Among the soldiers, there was a carriage, the kind without carriages. There was a coffin on the car, and the coffin was completely black, not like it was made of wood, and there seemed to be something painted on the coffin. Those people went to the mass grave slope and never came out again.

Some of the older people said that those soldiers were Yin soldiers, and they passed by my aunt's village and borrowed the way, and they also said that the people in the village must not go to the mass grave slope, and if they accidentally touched it, they would take it to the palace of the king of Hades.

When Chen Dezhi heard this, he just felt a palpitation in his heart, and he was glad that he came back alive. But after listening to Xing Ruyi's words, he realized that the soldiers back then may have been sent out by the general's father, and they transported the iron coffin containing Xing'er to his aunt's village thousands of miles away and buried it in the mass grave slope, perhaps in order to suppress Xing'er with the help of the yin qi of the mass grave slope.

"What about the soldiers? Did they all die on the slope of mass graves? It was like asking in a whisper.

"Probably not, there must be more than one road in and out of this village, and places like the Mass Grave Slope are full of roads in all directions. Those soldiers should have chosen a completely different path to follow up and walked out. They do this to prevent the spirit from possessing them, or to follow them into their own homes and cause them unrest. ”

"Will there really be a ghost who will go out?" It's like asking again, but the voice is still small.

"Yes, but not all unjust souls can do it, unless someone like her is more obsessed." Xing Ruyi pointed to Xing'er standing in the corner.

"What did I erase in the hole?"

"It's not a hole, it's Xing'er's grave, and her iron coffin is in it. The tomb should have been repaired in a hurry, and it was repaired in the slope of the mass grave, after years of rain infiltration and washing, those charms pasted in the hole, as well as the charms painted on the stone wall, were damaged to varying degrees, even without you, she could break through the seal and escape. It's just that you, by mistake, or providence, released her in advance.

Apricot recognizes you and follows you. At first, because of the seal, her ghost power was weak, so she could only let you fall asleep, but as her power became stronger and stronger, and seeing that you were so good that she had forgotten the oath she had made to her, she became angry and became manic. But even if she gets angry again, she just wants to force her to leave you, not really hurt her.

"If she's not a ghost, I can leave and give her back Dezhi. But now, she and Dezhi people have different paths, even if I leave, they still can't be together. ”

"Yes, people and ghosts have different paths, even if there is no you in the middle, they still can't be together." Xing Ruyi got up and returned to Xing'er: "Xing'er, you can see clearly, the person you like is dead, and the man who appears in front of you now is not the man who loved you back then and is worthy of your love." ”

Xing'er was silent, but Xing Ruyi already knew what she wanted, she sighed and said, "Why bother? Forget it, since this is your wish, let me help you ask and see if they are willing? ”

"Ruyi girl, what did Xing'er say?"

"She wants Chen Dezhi to marry her, the simple kind. She wanted to do what she wanted to do with him in the previous life but didn't have time to do. Xing'er said that as long as Chen Dezhi married her according to the agreement, she would disappear immediately and would never pester him again. This matter, in the final analysis, is it a matter between the three of you, and you can discuss it yourself? ”

"No, I agree to let Dezhi marry her and let her be included in the Chen family's genealogy. If her coffin is still in my aunt's village, I will go back with Dezhi and take out her coffin and bury it separately. I will respect her as my sister, and I will worship her every New Year's holiday. ”

"Like?"

"Dezhi, I am also a woman, and I know how bitter a woman can feel when she is waiting. She's a ghost, and I'm afraid of her, but I feel even more sorry for her. If she doesn't really love you, how can she wait for you for so many years without regrets. If it is a wish you made in your previous life, you should repay it in this life. ”

"But I don't want to wronged you." Chen Dezhi muttered, not daring to look at Xing'er at all.

"I don't feel wronged, she is your wife in your previous life, and I am your lady in this life, look at it, how blessed you are." It's like smiling, with tears in his eyes, but he sucks his nose hard.

Chen Dezhi and Xing'er's wedding was held in the middle of the night, Xing Ruyi pestered the fox and cast a spell to help Xing'er restore her appearance. When Xing Ruyi saw her restored face, she finally understood why the general's wife would ask someone to cut off her facial features, because she was so good-looking. It is impossible for the general's wife to keep such a beautiful woman who may let her son elope with her at any time.

One worships heaven and earth, two worships ancestors, husband and wife worship each other, Chen Dezhi lifted the veil of apricots in front of Wanru, Xing Ruyi and the fox, and after a few traces of amazement in his eyes, he bowed down and called softly: "Madam!" ”

Xing'er was also smiling like a flower, and returned the salute in public, and her voice called softly: "Xianggong!" ”

Then, the red silk fell to the ground, and the apricots were gone.

A few days later, Chen Dezhi and Wanru also held a marriage ceremony, and the ceremony was a punishment of Ruyi, a fox, Chang Tai and Xiao Shengzi. After the ceremony, Xing Ruyi sent two bowls of udon noodles, saying that it was the meaning of Xing'er, and it was Xing'er's wedding gift to their couple, hoping that they could love each other and be happy forever.
