No matter what the reason was for the slow healing of the wound, Wu Wei didn't worry too much, he thought, anyway, now that he is a human being, he will not die so easily. And recently, he has been accustomed to seeing life and death, and he has seen it, even if he dies, it is fate, and there is no way.

After sitting for a while, Wu Wei felt a little cold, so he lay down on the bed again and covered it with a thin quilt. After lying down, he took out his mobile phone and found that it was not damaged by soaking in water, and there was still some electricity.

After opening the mobile phone, Wu Wei saw that more than ten missed and unread messages were displayed on the mobile phone screen, all of which were called by Lan Muxue.

Wu Wei called Lan Muxue back, and Lan Muxue asked him angrily on the other side of the phone, where did he go? Why don't you answer the phone? Why didn't you pick her up at night?

Wu Wei was a little headache when she asked, so he quickly explained to her that he was going to do things with Liu Yue today, and he was a little injured, and told her that he would not go back to live at night.

At first, Lan Muxue was still very angry, but when she heard that Wu Wei was injured, Lan Muxue immediately asked him with concern: "Where are you injured?" Is it serious? Where are you now, I'll look for you! ”

Wu Wei told her: "It's just a small injury, don't worry, and it's not safe outside at night, I'm fine now, don't look for me." ”

Lan Muxue still said reluctantly: "You can be injured if you are so powerful, and you can't go home anymore and say it's okay?" No, I have to see you to be at ease! ”

Wu Wei refused: "It's really okay, I'm here in Shangxian Village, and I haven't gone back if it's too far away from Lucheng, and I'm going to go with Master Liu Yue tomorrow to investigate the matter of Guanyin Mountain, so you don't have to worry!" ”

Lan Muxue was relieved when she heard Wu Wei say that she was with Liu Yue, but she asked a few more words on the phone before hanging up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Wu Wei felt a hint of sleepiness coming over him, and then couldn't help but fall asleep.

After Wu Wei fell asleep, a pink light slowly flowed out of the mirror in the room, extending to Wu Wei's side, enveloping him.

This night, Wu Wei had a dream.

In his sleep, Wu Wei sat in a dimly lit bar, as if he was meeting an acquaintance, and this time he experienced this scene from the first perspective, as if he was dreaming, and as if he was telling a story of his own experience:

Tonight she wore a blood-red dress, lined her bare skin very white, lazy ballads played in the speakers, she held a slender cigarette, and her whole body leaned back on the sofa as if she had no bones, I sat across from her, poured her a glass of red wine, and I poured myself a glass.

The dim light seemed to add an ambiguous filter to the surroundings, she took a sip of the wine glass, and then tilted her head and swallowed the wine gently, this action completely exposed her neck and collarbone in front of my eyes, I think she did it on purpose, she knew that I liked to look at her neck, I told her, her neck is thin and long and white, I especially want to plant a strawberry on her neck, although it is very obscene, but the first time I saw her said this. She never cared, she didn't seem to care about anything.

She took a drag on her cigarette and asked me, "How many days is it?" ”

I took a sip of my wine, thought for a moment and said, "Today should be the seventh day." ”

Her voice was hollow: "You're here to kill me, I deserve to die at your hands on the first day, why don't you do it all the time?" ”

I knew I was exposed, after all, she was so smart and had lived so long. I asked her, "Since you knew I was here to kill you on the first day, why didn't you run and wait for me here on time every day?" ”

Instead of answering me right away, she sat up straight and no longer leaned back on the sofa, then took the last puff of her cigarette and pressed the cigarette butt into the ashtray to extinguish it before she spoke, "Do you know how long I've lived?" ”

I said, "It says four hundred and ninety-nine years." ”

"That's right," she said, "and it's exactly five hundred years later, thank you." ”

"You're welcome," I picked up the goblet, while shaking the foot of the cup while gently tapping the cup with my index finger, the red wine was bright like blood, I hadn't drunk blood for a long time, I said: "You don't have to thank me, I haven't killed you because I am reluctant, I haven't seen the evil for too long, and it is still the peach blossom that has existed for five hundred years, to be honest, I was really fascinated by you on the first day, I haven't experienced the feeling of heartbeat for a long time, how long has it been, I have forgotten for a long time, just like the previous life, or the previous life of drinking Meng Po soup." ”

"That's why I'm willing to die at your hands, because you know me." She picked up the wine glass and touched it with me, drank the wine in the glass, the corners of her mouth remained a trace of redness, and then stretched out the tip of her tongue to wipe the residual wine into her mouth, which was very charming. The more I look at her, the more charming I become, the more reluctant I am to kill her, because her beauty is really beautiful, I have seen a lot of demons and monsters, and they are all beautiful, but their beauty is the beauty of the painted skin, and when I kill them, they will tear the skin to show the ugly prototype, but she is different, I can see through her essence, and her prototype is also a beauty.

I asked her, "Remember how you died, or how your predecessor died?" ”

"Haven't you heard this kind of story yet?" She pulled out another cigarette, and I leaned over to light it for her.

I said: "Every time I go on a mission, my favorite part is to listen to the story, I found that the demon is no matter how ghostly, the more vicious the existence, the more miserable the story behind it, to be honest, I envy you all have your own story, and I, have existed longer than you, but unfortunately the meaning of my existence is nothing more than a tool in the hands of this world, I listen to your story, witness your story, and finally end your story through my hands, and I have nothing, Neither good nor bad, neither born nor destroyed, neither dirty nor pure, all appearances are empty. ”

When she heard me, she cast a sympathetic look at me and said, "You are more pathetic. ”

I smiled: "Since everything is empty, there is no such thing as being pitiful and pathetic." ”

She shook her head: "Then do you have compassion?" ”

She asked this question suddenly, and it was indeed unexpected to me, and I could not understand how the words 'mercy' could be uttered in one mouth, after all, we could not count the number of people she killed for three days and three nights. But then her words made me feel even more incredible, she said, "I have." ”

The blood-red dress has become a wedding dress painted with gold and embroidered phoenixes, and the face that looms in the dim light is no longer a bewitching peach blossom, her name is A Tao.

Five hundred years ago today was the day she got married, when she was sixteen years old, an age to be released. Although it is said that it is the words of the matchmaker of the parents, but the groom she has secretly seen it, with a handsome face, and a bookish air in his gestures, which is the type she likes.

A Tao dressed up a beautiful sedan chair, from her house to the groom's house is only less than ten miles away, in the middle to pass through a peach blossom forest, it is April, the peach blossoms are very bright, people say that the more beautiful things are, the more dangerous they are, it seems to be reasonable, and beauty itself is easy to tempt people to sin. For example, in this peach forest, no one thought that they would encounter robbers when they rested here, and the sedan chair drivers were all cowardly, and they were so frightened that they ran away when they saw the robbers, and threw her a weak woman there alone. If Ah Tao is uglier, the robber may snatch the dowry and leave, but Ah Tao is very beautiful.

I said, "I see you, you are defiled and you are brutally killed." ”

She said: "That's Ah Tao, not me, I watched her defiled by robbers, and finally brutally killed, I wanted to help her but couldn't, until she turned into a wisp of unjust soul, I was originally an unformed peach blossom essence, I absorbed a lot of remnant souls, she died at my feet, I ate her by the way." ”

I was a little puzzled: "But why is the Tao I see like you?" ”

She snuffed out the cigarette butt again, spit a puff of cigarette in my face, and said playfully, "When you eat me, you will know!" ”

With that, she threw her head back and let out a series of giggles, her slender white neck shook in front of me, and I couldn't help but stick out four fangs anymore.

When I pounced on her neck, her blood gushed down her four tooth holes, like four delicate flowers blooming.

Her body slowly faded, and finally turned into a wisp of green smoke that I inhaled into my body.

The surrounding scene began to distort, and the sound of the music turned into a series of suona gongs and drums. The scene changed into a peach blossom forest, and a big red sedan chair was slowly carried over under the support of two teams of drums.

Just more than ten meters in front of the kissing procession, there is a peach tree with a thick and thin hug, and it is impossible for a normal peach tree to grow so thick.

After the welcoming team came to the peach tree, the drum music suddenly stopped, and the matchmaker of the team leader glanced at the people behind her, and everyone immediately turned their heads and ran back, leaving only the sedan chair to stop alone under the thick peach tree.

After a while, a woman's soft voice came from the sedan chair: "Lady Wang? Did it arrive, why did it suddenly stop moving? ”

But there was no one around the palanquin, and no one could answer her.

The bride in the sedan chair asked with some panic, "Is there anyone?" Did you go to your mother-in-law's house? Wang Po? You talk, I'm so timid that I can't help but be scared! ”

At this moment, a group of hideous-looking robbers walked out of the peach forest, and they did not care about the bride in the sedan chair, but directly lifted the dowry that had been thrown on the ground and was about to leave.

But just as the robbers turned to leave, the sedan curtain was suddenly lifted from the inside, and a weaker beautiful woman came out of the sedan chair wearing a wedding dress.

"Who are you? What about the princess? Why does the sedan chair stop here? The bride asked in horror.

These robbers, who were about to leave, were stunned when they saw the bride, they robbed the family sending team four times, and none of the brides dared to get out of the sedan chair, this bride was the first.

The leading robber looked at the beautiful bride and walked over to the bride with a lewd smile. At this time, the bride also noticed the identity of these people, and quickly retreated into the sedan chair, and said in a trembling voice: "I, I haven't seen you, let's go!" ”

But the bride was so beautiful that the lust of the robber leader was hooked. With a lewd smile on his face, he quickly stepped into the sedan chair, and the bride's frightened cry was instantly heard in the sedan chair.

At this moment, a weak man ran out from behind the stout peach tree and rushed straight to the sedan chair. The man also got into the sedan chair and pulled the robber leader to persuade him: "Big brother, didn't you say that you only rob money and not sex, what are you doing!" ”

The leader of the robbers said arrogantly: "Brother, we have already robbed enough money, and today is the last business, so we don't need to worry about it so much!" ”

After the leader of the robbers finished speaking, he pushed the weak man out of the sedan chair, and the sound of the bride crying was heard again in the sedan chair.

The weak man threw himself into the sedan chair again, pulling and begging: "Big brother, we are just asking for money, you will make a big deal like this, you can let her go!" ”

I heard the bandit leader yelling, "you! Do you see this little lady beautiful and greedy? Haha, don't worry, I'll be yours after playing, my brother won't let you be such a groom for nothing, hahaha! Get out of here, don't get in my way! ”

As soon as the words fell, the weak man was pushed out again, and he wanted to go into the sedan chair to dissuade him, but he was stopped by the robbers around him.

Immediately afterwards, the struggle of the bride's cry was heard again in the sedan chair, but soon the crying stopped abruptly, and only the sedan chair kept shaking, and the rough panting of the bandit leader in the sedan chair could be seen.

The weak scholar was pressed by several robbers and couldn't move, and couldn't help but close his eyes and sob. After a while, the bandit leader stepped out of the sedan chair with his pants on a satisfied smile. He came to the weak scholar and smiled: "This little girl is really good, it's still a place!" Brother, I'll give it to you next, it's hard for you to help us cheat so many times, now you can have a good time, hahahaha! ”

The leader of the robbers grinned and beckoned the party to leave with the dowry. The weak scholar wiped his tears, and crawled to the sedan chair, he lifted the sedan chair, and saw the bride lying naked in the sedan chair like a dead person, staring at her big eyes and hanging with tears on her face.

The weak man cried: "I'm sorry for you! I hurt you! ”

The bride glanced down at the man and muttered, "I have seen you, you are my husband, and I am going to marry you today." ”

After the bride finished speaking, the man cried even more heartbreakingly, and he cried out, "I'm sorry! I can't help it, I'm sorry! I'll make it up to you, I'll marry you, I'll give you money, I really didn't think it would hurt you! ”

In the man's cry, the bride slowly sat up, and said to the man with a demented face: "Xianggong, my name is Ah Tao, I am your lady, don't forget me!" ”

The man looked at the bride with tears on his face, and sobbed: "Ah Tao, Ah Tao, I can marry you, I can make up for you!" ”

The man cried, but the bride slowly passed by his body, walked out of the sedan chair, and walked out naked with her lower body exposed.

Like a walking corpse, she walked up to the stout peach blossom tree, jumped hard, and hit her head on the trunk, blood mixed with brains and cracked peach blossoms on the ground.

"Don't !!" The weak man screamed and turned his head suddenly, and his face suddenly enlarged in front of him.

Wu Wei couldn't help but wake up in his dream, because the man's appearance turned out to be himself!
