Chapter 225: Compassion
Hearing the sound of plopping, Mu Liran reacted, and found that Zhan Cangming was about to kill the black shadow, and immediately shouted to him: "Wait a minute, she seems to be the female ghost who saved me last time." ”
Hearing Mu Liran say such words, all the murderous aura on his body disappeared, but he still remained vigilant. The black shadow who was knocked to the ground by him heard Mu Liran's words, and seemed to recognize her, as if he was particularly excited, Mu Liran looked at her in front of her and asked suspiciously: "You...... It's the female ghost who saved me in prison! ”
This sentence was not to ask her, but to express his meaning to her with great certainty, the black shadow floated up, lingering beside Mu Liran, and when Zhan Cangming on the side saw this scene, he thought that the black shadow was trying to be unfavorable to her, and immediately ran forward to take her away from there, and retreated to a place a few meters away from the black shadow.
Seeing this scene, the black shadow also knew what his intentions were, and instead of running to Mu Liran's side quickly, he was stunned and waited for their fate.
Mu Liran saw the black shadow stunned there, and suddenly felt that the black shadow's body revealed a trace of desolation, presumably she must have something to tell herself! Thinking of this, she turned her head to Zhan Cangming and said solemnly: "Don't worry, she won't hurt me, I have a strong intuition that she seems to be telling me something, you can rest assured, I won't let her hurt me." ”
After finishing speaking, he walked forward, he couldn't stop him anymore when he heard Mu Liran say this, he could only look at the person in front of him seriously, if something happened to her, he would quickly run forward to rescue her.
After that, he glared at the dark shadow not far away, as if to warn her that if something out of the ordinary happened, she would definitely die without a place to be buried! The black shadow also understood what he was, but he was not afraid, and when he saw Mu Liran walking towards him, he quickly ran to her.
Zhan Cangming, who was a few meters away, saw this scene and thought that the black shadow was trying to attack her, and her heart was shocked, but when she thought of what Mu Liran had just said, she didn't quickly step forward and continue to stand by in place.
Mu Liran saw the black shadow stop in front of him, so he smiled and said, "Tell me if there is anything." After saying this, the black shadow suddenly surrounded her, and it kept circling.
Seeing this, Zhan Cangming on the side thought that he was casting some kind of spell or something, and there were many times when he couldn't help but want to step forward and knock down the black shadow, but when he thought of Mu Liran's words, he could only hold back and look at the person in front of him nervously again.
Mu Liran was entangled by the black shadow, and gradually some hallucinations appeared in her mind, she originally felt a little strange, but after thinking for a while, she felt that this was what the black shadow wanted to tell herself! In the fantasy, the village that Mu Liran visited before appeared.
At this time, the illusion changed to a dilapidated house, and there were some shabby clothes hanging outside the house, which looked like a pile of rags, but in fact, the clothes had been worn by them for several years, but they were reluctant to throw them away, wanting to take it as a memory.
This is one reason, and the other is that they are really poor now and can't afford to buy new clothes, so they can only wear some clothes like rags over and over again. A woman who looked like a young lady but dressed in tattered copper sat on a stool wrapped in rags, knitting her sweater over and over again.
The woman thought that it was almost winter, and that she would knit some sweaters for her husband, who was on the expedition, and that when he returned, she would be able to wear the sweater she had made herself. But I didn't expect that a huge disaster was coming.
In this way, she knitted the sweater for several hours without feeling tired, and sat on the small bench and knitted over and over again, as if she was tired and unconscious, and once again looked up and found that it was almost dark, and she realized that she had been doing it unconsciously for several hours.
I suddenly felt a little tired, but when I saw the knitted sweater, all the tired feelings dissipated, and only the picture of meeting my husband was left in my mind. After putting her things in a dilapidated closet, the woman planned to go out and cook some food to eat, but found that the rice in the rice bowl was long gone, and there was no food at all.
The woman sighed helplessly, found a few copper plates she had left, and went to buy some ingredients. In the process of buying ingredients, the people who set up the stall saw the woman as if they were seeing the plague and avoided her, and the woman seemed to have been used to this, so she didn't do anything and smiled and walked over.
After seeing the woman walking away, the old woman who was setting up a stall said with a disgusted face: "Look at that woman, her husband went to the scientific examination, but she seduced the man in her hometown." At that time, I saw a man come out of her backyard, and I realized that she was stealing men, but she was acting as pure as anyone else. ”
After she said this, the gossip broke out again, and the woman already knew what these people were talking about behind their backs, and the man they were talking about was actually the husband's brother, and at that time, because after the husband left, he found that there was no more than a woman, so he called a brother to accompany the woman and say some comforting words to her.
Later, the two chatted for a long time before they found that it was already dark, and they chose to go to the backyard for fear of being gossiped by others when they walked from the front door.
Anyway, she just needs to wait quietly for her husband to come back, her husband will definitely not believe them, she is very happy when she thinks of this, so he never cares about any gossip, when she thinks of the scene after her husband returns, she is very happy.
In this way, the woman endured the insults of others, accepted the disdain and disgust of the gossip of the villagers in her hometown, and quietly waited for her husband to come back. After a long time, the woman who was knitting clothes and preparing to exchange money was suddenly startled by a knock on the door, and after thinking for a long time, she felt that it was her husband who came back from the scientific examination, and she was very excited, threw the thread in her hand aside, and quickly ran out of the door to open the door.
But what I didn't expect to see was a group of menacing officers and soldiers with terrifying faces. The woman couldn't help but tremble when she saw it, her legs were about to soften, and she held her hand against the door so that she didn't let herself fall.
The woman looked at these officers and soldiers and stammered: "You, you, please, is there anything wrong?" When she saw them, the woman always felt that they were not here to congratulate them, but to arrest the guilty ministers of the court, which made her afraid.
The officers and soldiers raised their eyebrows and asked suspiciously, "Don't you invite me in and sit down?" The woman didn't know how to answer, her mouth opened and closed, closed and opened, and the officers and soldiers didn't pay attention to her, but broke in.
Otherwise, I didn't know what to do after seeing them enter, so I had to walk in hard, and asked nervously, "Official, what are you doing here?" The officer rudely poured a cup of tea from the table, and when he was about to pass it to his mouth, he found that the cup was corner by corner, and if he accidentally touched his mouth, it would definitely bleed.
Seeing this scene, he threw the cup to the ground in disgust, and suddenly fell into tatters, the woman was startled, and hurriedly hugged her arm and asked nervously What are you doing, the little woman didn't seem to have done anything bad. The guest officer didn't seem to be too lazy to talk nonsense with her, and directly said something that made her excited and excited: "Don't you have a husband?" He won the ...... in the scientific examination"
Before he could finish speaking, the woman said excitedly, "Really? Did my husband really get hit? Where is he now? Why didn't I come back with you? I really miss him. Hearing the woman say this, the officers and soldiers laughed one by one.
At this moment, a soldier said disdainfully: "Even if he comes back, what can he do, he can only divorce his wife, your husband has already married a wife in the capital, and he gave birth to a white and chubby son, this time he called us to ask us to secretly ...... you" After speaking, he made a gesture of wiping his neck.
When the woman heard this, she fell directly to the ground, and said with a smile: "This is impossible, he, he clearly said that when he is lifted, he will definitely come back to me and let me live a good life, you guys, are you kidding, where is he now?" He will not abandon me. Although she said such words, her tears could not stop flowing.
Those officers and soldiers were particularly disdainful when they saw the woman, and then a soldier said with disgust: "Let's just dispose of this woman, seeing this girl crying and making trouble, I am really dizzy." The leader didn't think anything when he heard it, so he nodded and sat there watching the show.
At this time, two physically strong officers and soldiers dragged the heartbroken woman from the ground. Without the slightest hesitation, he put a red cloth directly on her neck and began to tighten.
The woman struggled desperately and said angrily: "You, you can't treat me like this, let go of me quickly, my husband won't do that, you have found the wrong person, let go of me quickly." At this time, the red cloth had slowly tightened, and she gradually felt that her life was passing little by little, and she couldn't breathe slowly.
The woman's eyes widened with fear, like a terrible ghost, and the officers and soldiers in front of her couldn't help but say that this woman's expression was too terrifying. Seeing that I was a little scared, another officer and soldier also trembled and said: "I also feel a little scary, you two are faster, seeing her expression, I will have a nightmare when I go back." ”
When the two heard this, they sped up, and after a long time saw that the woman in front of them was not struggling, they pulled the red cloth away, and the woman fell directly to the ground, making a loud noise, but they didn't expect the woman to still breathe.
Her eyes were red, and she made a hoarse voice: "I, I will definitely let the life that failed me be better than death...... and then the corners of her mouth flowed. The officer and soldier stepped forward, put his finger under the woman's nose, and breathed a sigh of relief, saying, "Don't blame us for your death, blame your ruthless husband, we are also instructed by others, and we cannot be blamed for this." ”
After saying that, they left directly, and did not bury the woman, but left her body there. After the woman died, the soul of the wronged person lingered, devouring the souls around her. Mu Liran woke up from the environment, sympathized with the woman, and decided to help her.
