Chapter 1 The Failure to Have a Good Death

Next Chapter

Chu leaned on the Nai He Bridge and looked at the trembling soul that was slowly approaching, it was a woman, her face was full of horror and disbelief.

There were blood marks on the corners of her mouth and red and swollen eyes, but these did not affect the woman's delicate appearance at all, but the tears on her face made her pear blossoms rain.

When the woman got closer, she saw Chu Tian under the green candlelight, her eyes widened in horror, and she stopped a few feet away to look at Chu Tian.

Her voice trembled with fear: "You, are you Meng Po?" After saying that, her tears began to flow out again, but she didn't dare to cry out loud, and covered her mouth with her hand.

Trembling, he took two steps back.

Chu Tian had already witnessed and experienced ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-eight births and deaths, which she had long been accustomed to, and was a little impatient, she approached the woman and said as she walked: "I'm not Meng Po, I'm a ferryman, I'm ......"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the woman crying: "Don't come here!" I don't want to die, and I don't want to drink Meng Po soup. With that, the woman turned around and ran back.

Chu Tian shook his head helplessly, picked up the two pages of judgment in his hand, the woman's name is Qin Qingyue, she is the daughter of the prime minister of the Han Kingdom, she has been raised in the boudoir since she was a child, and she has a gentle personality and is kind and generous.

Xu was married to the seven princes of the Han Kingdom as the imperial concubine. The night of the candle in the cave room died of intestinal poisoning.

Chu Tian sighed, cut off the intestinal poison, and died quickly after drinking it, and died when he felt the pain.

Unreasonable, expected. A person who has good intentions, but does not have a good end. Chu Tian's duty as a ferryman is to help these souls who have good intentions but have not died well to return to the world to get an answer.

Let them leave with peace of mind and be reincarnated.

This is Chu Tian's ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine tasks, this task is completed, her duties as a ferryman will be over, and she can be reincarnated.

Living as a ferryman is to experience torture again and again, and Chu Tian has long been tired of it. Reincarnation, in fact, Chu Tian also found it boring, after all, he had lived for so many years, and he had seen all the life and death in the world. She also thought that it would be better to be free from her soul, but she never had the courage.

Reincarnation, forgetting everything, and starting over is her best choice. So she had to complete this last mission without any problems.

She flashed and moved in front of Qingyue, who instantly fell to the ground, stiff and unable to move.

Chu Tian squatted down and tilted his head to look at Qingyue, her face was a little similar to herself, as beautiful. So Chu Tian squeezed out a smile, not wanting to scare Qingyue with a too serious expression. But when she smiled, Qingyue cried even more sadly.

Chu Tian smiled helplessly, and said expressionlessly: "I am the ferryman, not Meng Po."

But you're really dead, and you have to accept it. But because you had good thoughts and were kind and charitable in your previous life, but you were victimized by others, so before you cross the Nai He Bridge, I can return to the world for you, ask a question you want to ask, and give you the answer. Chu Tian has long been familiar with this line.

Hearing this, Qingyue stopped crying, and she wiped the tears on her face. Lost in thought.

"Then think about it, what do you want to ask." Chu Tian said and simply sat cross-legged opposite Qingyue and began to read Qingyue's story before his death.

=====

The picture returns to the Prime Minister's Mansion, three days before Qingyue's death.

Qingyue looked at herself in a bridal dress in front of the bronze mirror, with a hint of shyness in her joyful expression.

The maid in the costume on the side smiled and said: "This wedding dress is so good-looking, the young lady herself is beautiful, and then wearing this dress, it is really beautiful like a fairy." The candle night in the cave room will definitely kill the Seven Princes. ”

After the maid finished speaking, Qingyue's face turned even redder. Qingyue pushed her and said, "Don't talk nonsense, go and change the tiara, and change the silver charm to a pearl charm, I still think the pearl charm is good-looking." ”

"Yes Miss." Li'er said and smiled and went out with the tiara.

Qingyue turned around the bronze mirror twice, breathed a sigh of relief, and went to the back room to change clothes. Chu Tian looked at Qingyue's boudoir, although it was the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, with golden branches and jade leaves, the boudoir decoration was simple and abnormal, there were no precious antiques, and there were few jewelry on the dresser.

Qingyue said to herself after coming out of the back room: "Why am I like this, I was so nervous just to try on the wedding dress, and the candles in the cave room were ...... at night" Saying that, Qingyue's face turned red again, she shook her head, walked to the dresser, took out a jewelry box from the cabinet of the dresser, took out the Zhu Hai in the jewelry box, and there was a layer of dark compartment below, Qingyue carefully took out a fine key from the dark compartment.

Qingyue then walked to the sandalwood cabinet next to the dresser, took out a small box from the cabinet, and opened the box with the key. As soon as she opened it, a maid called her at the door: "Miss, the lord and the lady asked me to urge you, saying that the waiter of the Ministry of Rites has been waiting in the front hall for a long time." ”

Qingyue was startled, quickly closed the box, hurriedly put the key into the drawer of the dresser and said, "I forgot about it as soon as I tried it, I'll go over now." With that, Qingyue tidied up her clothes and hurried out.

"I've figured it out." Qingyue's voice sounded in his ears, and Chu came back to his senses and came to the side of the bridge.

=====

"I figured it out. I want to ask Zhixi why he wants to spend candle night in the cave room to me, poisoned wine. When he said the word Zhixi, Qingyue's eyes became painful, and her face darkened.

"You think he poisoned you?" Chu Tian asked.

Qingyue's brows tuddled deeper, and she hugged her bulging legs and buried her head down. In a desperate and choked voice, he said, "Hand over a glass of wine, one glass for each person, and we all drank it." Her voice lowered, and then became hoarse: "I am dead, but he is alive." ”

After saying this, Qingyue's shoulders began to tremble, her hands clutching herself tightly, her nails digging into the skin. Chu Tian could see that she was crying, but she didn't make any sound.

Unable to bear to look at her pain, Chu tilted his head and looked at the flowers on the other side.

The flowers bloom delicately, with a light purple glow, and an endless bewitching beauty. Chu poured out a flower on the other side and turned into Qingyue's head. An aura shield emanated from the place where the flower disappeared on the other side, enveloping Qingyue. A leaf fell into Chu Tian's hand.

Chu Qian said, "Stay inside, wait for me to come back." As he spoke, he floated the air hood and sank into the Lethe River under the Naihe Bridge, and Qingyue fell asleep in the air hood.

There are some air hoods scattered in the Lethe River, and the water surface is sparkling, not like a river with a soul, like an ordinary small bridge and flowing water, and the world is warm.

Chu Tian continued to read the picture of Qingyue before his death.

=====

Chu Tian came to the night of the cave room, she was looking at the main hall of the cave room, and suddenly a "meow" dragged out the end of the sound, which scared Chu Tian for a while. Chu tilted his head, and a snow-white cat jumped onto the bookcase.

Chu Tian walked over and said to the cat: "How many times have you been here, you are not tired, every time you scare me, you can't be well-behaved." ”

The cat lay down and said in a soft voice, "This is our last mission, and I can only scare you one last time." "I don't feel like I'm wrong at all.

Chu Tian shook his head helplessly, since she started to be a ferryman, this cat was by her side, Meng Po and Chu Tian said that this cat had the same fate as her. But fortunately, she had this cat with her, otherwise Chu Tian felt that she would definitely be swallowed up by these thousands of years of loneliness.

She named the cat Qiao'er because she wanted her to be well-behaved, but it was useless, the cat went to the house to uncover the tiles and could do anything. The only advantage of Qiao'er is that when Chu Tian attaches himself to the host, Qiao'er will also come to the world, and she can also go back and forth to the underworld to help Chu Tian consult the classics of the underworld.

Suddenly, the door of the room was pushed open, and Chu Qian looked at the comer, who was a young man with handsome eyebrows and eyes, with jade bones and beautiful bones, and he was spotless. The red wedding dress makes him even more extraordinary, and he thinks that he is the tide of the Seven Princes.

Zhixi looked in the direction of Chu Tian, sighed quietly and then replaced it with a relaxed smile, this smile is like a bright sunshine, and it is easy to put it into the girl's heart.

Chu Tian was flustered for a moment, and in a trance he thought that he could see himself. Zhixi approached Chu Tian step by step, and when he was close, Chu Tian's heart missed a beat. However, Zhixi did not stop, he went straight through Chu Tian and walked in front of Qingyue.

Chu Tian looked back at Qingyue. Qingyue held her hands tightly, and Chu Tian, who was also a woman, could feel Qingyue's nervousness. Chu Tian looked at Zhixi again, she didn't think he was planning to kill Qingyue.

Zhixi stayed in front of Qingyue for a moment, did not remove the hijab, but looked at the happy wine on the table, in addition to the happy wine, there was also a teapot on the table. He walked over to the table, poured a glass of wine, and poured a cup of tea. Chu Tian felt that Zhixi was a little familiar for a moment, as if he had seen him somewhere. So many tasks, maybe one of them has passed by.

Chu Tian walked to the side of Zhixi and saw that the tea in the teapot was colorless. She looked at Zhixi in disbelief, trying to read something from Zhixi's expression, but Zhixi's face was expressionless.

Chu tilted his lips and admired, it was really murderous without blinking. You can’t judge a book by its cover.

Zhixi picked up the jade Ruyi next to the wine jug, sat next to Qingyue, and immediately picked up Qingyue's hijab with jade Ruyi. Chu tilted and looked at Qingyue Chu's moving face, she was incredibly beautiful tonight. Qingyue, who had no hijab to cover her head, trembled slightly because of nervousness, and she didn't dare to raise her eyes to look at Zhixi.

Zhixi looked at her for a moment and said, "Qingyue, you have been waiting in the room for a long time. ”

Zhixi's words were warm, but Qingyue was still nervous, and quickly shook his head, wanting to say nothing but not saying anything.

He walked back to the table and took the wine and tea he had just poured, and Chu Tian noticed that he was holding tea in his left hand and wine in his right hand. Back on the couch, he handed the wine to Qingyue and said, "The matter of marriage, the order of the parents, and the words of the matchmaker." I can't help myself. But I already have a girl in my heart, and I really don't want to go against my heart to hand over the cup and round the cave room. I'm sorry. After saying that, he drank the "wine" in his hand.

Chu Tian saw that Qingyue was no longer trembling because of nervousness, but the tears of grievance were flushed with reddish eyes, and she bit her lip lightly, trying to control herself from crying. Zhixi stared at the wine glass in his hand and continued: "In the future, in the mansion, I will protect your noble status, fine clothes and food, and I hope that we can respect each other as guests." ”

Chu Tian couldn't help but let out a loud voice, and he was respectful like a guest.

Qingyue's tears slipped from the corners of her eyes, and she drank the wine in her glass. Chu Tian couldn't bear to look at it anymore, and looked back at the window, where the full moon of fifteen was hanging brightly in the dark night sky. This is the first time in thousands of years that Chu Tian has seen the life and death on the night of the full moon.

The night sky in the distance, and the flickering fireworks, Chu Tian sighed, it should have been a good day.
