Chapter Eighty-Three: The Banshee

Speaking of the story of the White Lady and Xu Xian, Huai Wei said that she had seen this legend with her own eyes, but she changed her name, for this statement, Gu Zhi didn't believe it very much, and asked Banyou for verification, and Banyou gave a positive answer: "What my god said is good, it is true." We traveled around and met them when we passed through West Lake. At that time, the man knew the identity of his wife's demon clan, and he was very frightened, looking for capable people to collect demons, and happened to bump into us. ”

"Collecting demons? That man actually wanted to hurt his wife, it was really unkind and unconscionable! When Gu Zhi heard this, he was indignant.

"Throughout the ages, are there still fewer stories of amorous women and thin lovers? Over the years, you've seen more than eight hundred but a thousand, right? Why are you still so angry? Huai Wei was surprised by Gu Zhi's attitude, and felt that he was making a fuss, in her opinion, Gu Zhi should have been accustomed to such a situation.

"And then? Did you really help the man take his wife in? Gu Zhi didn't care to refute Huaiwei, he only cared about the progress of things.

"It's the same root, so why be in a hurry. We are not related to that man, so why should we stand up for him. The banshee was at home waiting for the man to go back, and the moment she saw us enter the door, her face froze with joy, and when she saw her husband cowering in the doorway, she didn't dare to come closer, and what else did she not understand, a face that was miserable and white, but also had a backbone, and straightened her back, her eyes were red, and her tears refused to fall. Huaiwei admired the strength of the banshee.

Gu Zhi seemed to feel deeply, showed a sad expression, and said with emotion: "That is the little dignity she has left in front of her husband, how can she not try her best to maintain it?" Dare to hide her identity and fall in love with a mortal, and can make up her mind to stay with her alien husband for the rest of her life, the perseverance of this banshee can be imagined. However, when he met someone unladylike, he looked away like the ugly lord of the country, and actually fell in love with such a ruthless and unrighteous negative man. Such an infatuated woman should have been held in the palm of her hand to take care of her, why should she suffer this kind of torture? Why should you be sad for this kind of scumbag, waste a lifetime of time, and even lose your life? ”

"The banshee saw that her husband was afraid of her, and she didn't even want to say a word to her, and she understood her husband's decision, so she didn't do much entanglement, didn't look at the man outside the door again, turned into a gust of wind and left." Huaiwei did not answer these questions, and she went on to tell the story of the banshee and the man.

When Gu Zhi heard this, he couldn't help but praise loudly: "Good! Attaboy! That's how it should be, this banshee is really a woman who doesn't let her eyebrows go. What does that man do with his wife like this? should be gone, that kind of scumbag is not worth nostalgia at all. ”

"After so many years of relationship, how can you say that you can give up, that banshee just looks chic. Waving his sleeves and not taking away a cloud has never been something that can be done by an infatuated species that values love and promises. Huai Wei poured cold water on Gu Zhi, extinguished his passion, and then told the truth, "The banshee seems to be leaving, but in fact she hides her figure, lingering at the door of her and the man's house, reluctant to leave. Even if a man can show even the slightest reluctance or longing, the banshee will return to the man regardless of it. For three whole days, the banshee lingered, just for a result. ”

"The man has a change of heart? The banshee will definitely ignore her past suspicions and go back to live with that negative man. After Gu Zhi finished speaking, he felt that something was not good.

Also interested in the story of the banshee and the man was the Elder, who listened to him and said, "Then there is no need to say. Isn't there a saying in the world that 'a lover's eye is out of the eyes', a banshee is infatuated with a man, no matter what wrong thing he does, the banshee will choose to forgive and will not be overly careful. ”

"Ah Shi, little elder, you all underestimate the unkindness of human beings, and their ruthlessness is far beyond your imagination." Huai Wei sneered, as if laughing at the innocence of the two monsters, and then did not forget to boast to herself, "Back then, I asserted that the banshee would not get her wish, so she should not expect too much from that man. ”

"The result? Ah Wei, don't sell it, let's talk about what the shameless man has done. Gu Zhi interrupted Huai Wei impatiently.

Huai Wei rarely didn't have the appetite to continue to worry about Gu Zhi, and simply said the follow-up plot: "The greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment." As you can imagine, the man didn't show any sadness, but burned all the banshee's clothes and articles in one fell swoop, as if there was something dirty on them. The firelight reflected the man's relieved expression, and the banshee was heartbroken and painful when she saw this, and her eyes were hazy with tears, but she still hoped that things would turn around. ”

"Really? Are things really reversed? Gu Zhi was anxious to know what happened later, and actually began to complain about Huai Wei, "Ah Wei, you really think you are a storyteller, why do you stop talking?" After saying it in one breath, it has to be ups and downs, what do you do with so much attention to the beginning and the end? ”

"Didn't I say a long time ago that this story didn't end well, and when the tragedy ends, where will there be any turnaround?" Huai Wei likes to tease Gu Zhi, and after admiring his anxious and anxious appearance, seeing that he is really anxious, she said unhurriedly, "The disheartened banshee still has a trace of expectation, and chooses a remote residence in the town to settle down, living in a simple place, desperately guarding the man who is determined to remove her from life, watching him do sunrise and sunset as usual, pretending to be sad and fabricating the scandal of his wife eloping with someone with the neighbors, and watching the man calmly accept the sympathetic gaze of everyone. Over time, everything returned to peace, and there was no trace of the banshee's existence in the man's life. On a sultry and gloomy afternoon, the banshee ushered in the final blow of heartache, and the man was about to get married. With the lesson of the banshee, this time the man was extra cautious when choosing a wife, and chose someone who knew the roots. The woman's ancestors have lived in the town for several generations, and it is absolutely impossible for them to be inhuman alien monsters. The banshee heard that the wife whom the man was about to marry was slightly disabled, a little lame, a little old, and did not look very good-looking, and the people in the town said that she was not as good-looking as her. The banshee also heard that the man spent a large sum of money to renovate the house in order to marry a wife, and gave the woman a large bride price to hold a beautiful wedding for the lame bride. The banshee had only heard about these things, and she had left the town on the day the man got married, and had never returned. ”

"It's long overdue to leave that sad place, what are you doing there? Do you see the man in love with his new wife? The longer you stay, the more uncomfortable it becomes, and you can't see it, so you can go around and relax. Gu Zhi's eyes turned red when he heard what happened to the banshee, and his voice was a little strange, as if he was choked.

Huai Wei didn't laugh at Gu Zhi's sentimentality, sighed deeply, and sighed with emotion: "Infatuation is the essence of infatuation, the banshee left the town and did not go anywhere else, but went to the place where she first met the man, near the West Lake." I found a storyteller, told my story one by one, and then went straight to Jinshan Temple, found the presiding abbot, and threatened to do evil for the sake of evil, killing and slaughtering. The abbot saw the dead silence in the banshee's eyes at a glance, and put it into the Leifeng Tower, but did not set any restrictions, promising that if she regretted it, she could get out of the tower on her own. When the banshee heard this, she smiled desolately, and swore that she would never leave the tower in her life. ”

This is the end of the story, the banshee's end is already doomed, and she will live in the tower for the rest of her life.

All the monsters didn't speak, and after a while, there was a faint sobbing sound from below, and Xuanjia complained to Huai Wei with a crying voice: "Sister Wei, you lied. How could this poor banshee be the prototype of the White Lady? She is much worse than the White Lady, and she likes her husband wholeheartedly, but because she is not a person, she is disliked by her husband, and her husband has to invite someone to take her in. She didn't do anything, she didn't flood Jinshan Temple like the White Lady, but she would rather be trapped in the dark and empty tower for the rest of her life, and made a vow not to leave the tower for the rest of her life, how sad she should have been at that time. The White Lady is also imprisoned in the tower, but she at least has Xu Xian's unwavering love, which supports the White Lady regardless of racial identity and helps her through the boring and difficult times in the tower. The Banshee and the White Lady are not the same fate at all. ”

"One in the sky and one under the bottom, how can they be compared? Ah Wei, you must be talking nonsense. Gu Zhi was on the side to help.

Also, when Xu Xian found out that the white lady was a demon, he couldn't accept it for a while and fainted. But after he woke up, he was not afraid of the identity of the White Lady, and still regarded her as his wife, and did his best to protect her. When the white lady was pressed at the bottom of the ** tower, Xu Xian did not give up hope of rescuing her, and kept guarding her, looking forward to reuniting with her. How can that wolf-hearted man who sees things change his mind compare with the consistent Xu Xian? If it weren't for the fact that the man was too ruthless, the banshee wouldn't have been sad and desperate to that point, it was all his fault. Xuanjia resolutely disagreed with Huaiwei's initial statement.

"The joys and sorrows are all performed by the characters in the story, and the onlookers have nothing to say. It is impossible to know how true or false what the banshee told the storyteller, and what has been handed down today may be the chisel of posterity, or it may just be an unrealized vision in the heart of the banshee. Xiao Jia, a slap can't be slapped, the love between demons and people is originally a matter of moths fighting fires, and the painful lessons since ancient times are as vast as stars, how can it be said that it is the fault of one person? ”
