Chapter 056: Chu Shisan (8)

"It's really a bloody and unexpected plot."

"Dog blood?"

"Oh, adjective, Aunt Ying, you don't mind." Xing Ruyi waved his hand.

If she was still the proprietress in the Ruyi rouge shop in Luoyang at this time, she would probably kick Aunt Ying out of this inn. But after going through some things, she seems to have a better understanding of human nature. Looking at people, it is no longer a simple distinction between good people and bad people. No matter how much she doesn't like Aunt Ying, no matter how much she dislikes the things she has done, she will still try to look at the whole thing from the perspective of a third-party observer.

In the words of the fox, she is just a fungiver, and there is no need to have such a strong sense of substitution.

But what's the matter with the palms clenched? As long as she thought of that poor, rather innocent general, she had the urge to beat Aunt Ying to the point of being scattered.

With a movement of her knuckles, she tried to soothe the impulse in her heart, then stood up, walked to the window, and pushed it open.

The snow, falling in a thick layer, enveloped the entire town in a pure white.

"You know about the paper man, right?"

She opened her mouth and asked directly about Yingzi.

"I know, but I don't know much."

"Uncle once told me that he did those things to get revenge on you. But after listening to your account, I think it's not just about revenge. I guess there's something else going on. ”

"I'll talk about it."

The door to the inn was pushed open again. This time, it was Aunt Ying's daughter, Yingzi, who walked in. Standing behind Yingzi was the fox that Xing Ruyi had never seen since he woke up.

"Mother, you shouldn't have come to Mrs. Yin."

Yingzi first looked at her mother, her eyes were red, indicating that she knew that her mother standing in front of her at this moment was no longer from the Yang world.

"My daughter is not filial, so I can't feel at ease after you leave. But mother, my daughter has grown up, and my daughter has her own ideas. Please, let your daughter be the Lord for herself. ”

"I'm your mother." Yinggu smashed the crutches in her hand hard: "Yingzi, I am your mother, your own mother." How you let me watch you marry a dead man. He's dead, he's been dead for many years. ”

"Mother." Yingzi grinned and smiled with tears in her eyes: "Actually, my daughter is no longer there." ”

"What did you say?" Aunt Ying was stunned for a moment.

"Mother." Yingzi stretched out her hand and grabbed Aunt Ying.

Aunt Ying was stunned for a moment, then threw down her crutches and hugged her daughter.

"What's going on? What's going on? ”

"Mother." Although the ghosts were all without tears, Yingzi still subconsciously wiped it on Aunt Ying's face. "Do you remember three years ago? At that time, you were sick and you were in a daze all the time. At that time, you kept repeating three words - Chu Shisan. The daughter searched for a long time and asked a lot of people before she inquired about the recipe.

It's a pity that my daughter searched for a long time, but she couldn't find the medicine called Chu Shi, so she secretly went to the mountains to pick it by herself. As a result, something happened to her daughter.

When my daughter woke up, she found herself sleeping in a strange place. It was a small round house, and the furnishings of the house were extremely simple. There is only one table and one bed. He, standing in front of a simple screen, was looking at something very strange. Later, I learned that it was a military deployment map, and he was a general. ”

"General? Isn't it the general in the wordless tablet? ”

Yingzi nodded.

He didn't seem to know that I was awake, and he just stood and watched. I, as for me, just looked at him silently. I've never seen a man so focused. ”

"Do you like him?"

"At the time, I didn't think I liked it." Yingzi lowered her head shyly: "At that time, I didn't know that I was seriously injured. All I know is that my leg looks like it's hurting. When I got up from the simple wooden bed, I didn't think it was very convenient. When he heard the voice, he turned around, frowned slightly, and said to me: Don't move.

I was so scared that I really didn't dare to move. I thought he was going to scold me because he had such a serious face.

But no. He just walked over and looked down at me. After looking at me for a while, he asked me what I wanted to do.

I said, I want to get up and stand up.

He didn't say anything, but handed his hand over.

I asked him, what are you looking at?

He said, looking at a map.

I asked him, what map were you looking at?

He said a map of the border city.

I don't understand. I was born here and grew up here. I've never been to a border town, and I certainly can't read what it's all about.

He asked me, do you want to know?

I nodded, and he picked me up. He was cold, with a feeling like winter. Then he took me to the map, put me on the table, and pointed to the map and told me. Lines like these represent mountains, lines like rivers and lines like cities and deserts. He spoke so intently that I listened so dazedly that I could only see his eyebrows, eyes, nose and mouth.

I think that's when I started liking him.

Finally, when he finished speaking, he turned to me and asked: Is it boring?

I shook my head. The picture was indeed boring, but the way he spoke was not boring at all.

I asked him, have you ever been to the place in Turi?

He said, "Yes." Not only did he go, but my father and my mother too. He also said that I look very similar to my mother. ”

"And then?"

Xing Ruyi suddenly became interested, quickly walked to the round table, poured a cup of tea and handed it to Yingzi, only to suddenly remember that she no longer needed to drink tea to moisten her throat.

I asked him, do you know my father and my mother? He nodded, said that they were all old people, and even asked me, how is my mother doing now? I told him that my mother was not doing well. My dad is crazy, he can't even remember me and my mother. Because my mother was angry, she even set up my father's spiritual seat at home. He listened, and seemed a little unhappy, but he didn't say anything. Later, when he saw me off, he gave me a pill and told me to take it. ”

"Pills?"

"Well, that's it."

Yingzi stretched out her hand, and in the palm of her hand lay a round, black medicine.

"This is not a medicine, this is the Soul Locking Pill, it is something in the underworld."

"Does Madame recognize this too?"

"I've seen it, I've seen it." Xing Ruyi turned his back and stuck out his tongue.

She couldn't tell Yingzi that the first time she followed the fox to see the Immortal King, she was fooled by the fox into asking the Immortal King for a large handful of this thing. In the fox's words, she is just a mortal who has just arrived in the Tang Dynasty, in case she accidentally dies, with this thing, he can go to the Immortal King in time to let her be reborn.

Thinking about it now, the fox at that time was quite unreasonable.

Fortunately, with the fox by her side, the large handful of Soul Locking Pills are still obediently lying in her small medicine box.

The Soul Locking Pill is a thing from the underworld, and this kind of thing is not available to everyone. That general has, which means that he is not an ordinary lonely ghost.

"Yingzi is not as good as Madame, Yingzi just learned that this thing is called Soul Locking Pill."

"I just happened to see it. This soul-locking pill is soul-locking. So, when you met the general, you were actually ......"

Yingzi nodded: "That's right, at that time, Yingzi was actually dead. It's just that providence made Yingzi fall next to his tombstone. Probably because of his father, he gave Yingzi this thing. ”

"What about you? And when did you know that he was a ghost and not a human? ”

"It's time to go back to him." Yingzi's face showed a touch of shyness again: "After he sent me home, I will never forget the way he stood in front of that map." So, I tried to go back to him. But I searched and searched, but I couldn't find the strange round house. ”

"The so-called round house should be the tomb, right?"

"Hmm." Yingzi nodded: "But at that time, I didn't know." All I know is that I can't find it. People seem to be like this, the more you can't find anything, the more you want to desperately find it. Later, I really had no choice, so I found the place where I had stumbled and fallen, and then deliberately rolled down. ”

"You kill yourself?"

"Nope! I didn't think about dying, I just thought, maybe with that way, I can find him. ”

"The result?"

"I found it. When I woke up, I found myself in that strange house again. And he stood by the bedside. The first thing I asked, why? ”

"yes, why? If you wanted me, I'm sure I'd ask the same question. Xing Ruyi held up his chin.

"I said, I don't know, I just want to see him."

"Then he, is he very moved?"

Yingzi shook his head: "No, he just told me very calmly that he is not human, he died many years ago." ”

"And what about you, convinced?"

"Nope! I certainly didn't believe it at the time. So, he took me outside the house. That's when I realized that I had been in a grave both times. I thought I was going to be scared. But no. Instead of feeling scared, I was a little happy. Happy, I finally know where he is. ”

"And then you found out that you had a crush on this ghost and wanted to marry him?"

Yingzi's thoughts, Xing Ruyi actually understands very well, because when she knows that the fox is a fox spirit, she feels the same as her. I thought I was going to be scared, but as a result, I was more happy than afraid. This is probably the power of love.

Xing Ruyi looked at Yingzi expectantly, she thought Yingzi would nod, but she didn't expect her to just shake her head slightly.

"It's my mother, it was when my mother was planning to marry me, I hid outside the door, secretly looked at the man, and suddenly found that my heart was already living with someone else. I went to the tombstone to look for him, but no matter what I said or shouted, he would not come back to me. “

Xing Ruyi said in his heart, isn't it normal that he doesn't want to see you? He's your mother's ex-husband, and he's your elder.

Yingzi continued, she said: "I looked for him many times, but he avoided him. So, I went to my dad and told him all about my thoughts. “

"Your father? That paper-binding man's old Zhang? ”

Yingzi nodded. "Well, he said he could help me, so he asked me to pay off my mother's debt."

"Stop!" Xing Ruyi stood up and walked quickly to Yingzi: "You mean to say that your father came up with the idea to let you marry that person, and then help your mother pay off the debt?" Theoretically speaking, the repayment of mother's debt and daughter's debt is also in line with the uncle's temperament. But emotionally speaking, this is a typical pit girl. Your father, do you remember that it is your father? “
