Chapter 27: Failure
Wang Yue didn't answer for a long time. I had an ominous premonition, "Wang Yue, are you okay?" ”
"What time is it?" She asked suddenly, in a very gentle tone.
"It was half past eleven when I came in, and it was almost early morning." I said slowly.
Wang Yue's voice became more and more ethereal, and it seemed to go away with the waves, "Lin Cong, thank you for your help and dedication during this time, we are all here." Don't worry, the agreement I signed with Meng Po to pledge your soul will be invalid at this moment, and it will not affect your future life. Whether it is to save my father, or if I am trapped in the bardo and never be able to free myself, as long as there is a result, your soul will come back. ”
Hearing her say this, I breathed a long sigh of relief, and I felt a little inauthentic. I was busy working for several days, but I didn't care about Wang Yue at all, I just thought that I could be safe.
"Lin Cong, I'm sorry for the trouble." Wang Yue said in a low voice: "As soon as the water in the room is full, my soul will be scattered." I have one last request. ”
"Say it."
Wang Yue said softly: "In the last half hour, don't leave, okay, stay here with me and send me on my last journey." ”
I'm not a taste of this. After all, I had a very good time with Wang Yue, and I was very happy, although I can't talk about any love for her now, after all, the two of us still have love.
I muttered, "It should be." ”
We don't talk anymore. My hand was on the wall, as if this wall was Wang Yue. Time passed minute by minute, and the silent Wang Yue suddenly said: "After the early morning, take away the bracelet left for you, as the last gift for you." ”
I said "um".
"This bracelet may not be of much use to you in the future, so think about it," Wang Yue said, "You must keep it for yourself, and don't give it to others, including Uncle Zhong." ”
I was silent for a moment, and slowly understood.
"Also," Wang Yue said, "At the bottom of the wardrobe in the living room outside, there is my industrial and commercial card, and the money in it is useless to keep it, and it will be left to you." The password is your birthday. ”
Hearing this, it was like a thousand arrows piercing my heart, and I could feel Wang Yue's love, she really liked me. But what about me?
When I was thinking about it, Wang Yue said: "After I die, you don't have to worry about the corpse, that is, the physical body, someone will deal with it." Tomorrow morning, you take Uncle Zhong away, and after closing the door, there is a small reset button under the combination lock, you press it, and the password will be reset. You won't use it here in the future, I have already arranged the rest of the matter, and I won't cause you trouble. ”
"Wang Yue, you ......" I'm a little excited, this little woman is really a little touching.
"Alright, the water is going to be full, and the time is up." Wang Yue's voice was sad: "Goodbye Lin Cong, goodbye in the next life." Oh no, I'm gone, I don't have a next life. Just let my voice and smile remain in your memory, you will think of me in the future, don't forget me. I want to leave a trace of missing this world at the end......"
With that, suddenly there was no sound.
My hairs stood on end: "Wang Yue, Wang Yue......"
There was not a sound behind the wall, a sudden dead silence.
I'm top-heavy and weak, Wang Yue is dead? She just died? A living person, someone with whom I once had a deep intersection, just disappeared.
I buckled the bracelet off the wall and slowly put it on my hand. My mind is a little confused, I don't want to think too much, so let's wait until tomorrow morning when my mood is stable and my thoughts are cleared.
Coming out of the mirror, Uncle Zhong looked at me and didn't ask questions. From my expression, he should have known the outcome of the matter.
We came to the living room outside.
Uncle Zhong took out a cigarette and handed it to me, and I took it. Uncle Zhong asked, "She didn't pass, did she?" ”
I nodded, my throat bitter, speechless for a moment.
"What about you?" He asked.
I sighed and said, "Wang Yue and Meng Po signed my soul and soul, and they are stuck at this point, no matter whether the mission is successful or not, my soul will come back." ”
Uncle Zhong patted me on the shoulder, and he stretched on the sofa: "Luck in misfortune." By the way, Wang Yue said that she didn't say, what about her physical body. ”
I said, "She said that it has been arranged, and someone will handle it, and we will leave on our own tomorrow morning." ”
"What else did she say?" Uncle Zhong looked at me.
I simply told the truth, "She left this bracelet to me." I shook my wrist, "and she left me a sum of money." ”
Uncle Zhong looked at the bracelet in my hand and didn't make a sound.
"Wang Yue said, no one can give this bracelet, I can only wear it myself." I accentuated my tone.
Uncle Zhong smiled, shook his head, closed his eyes and told me, turn off the lights, he has to sleep well, and he will withdraw tomorrow morning.
I walked to the wall and turned off the light in the living room, and Uncle Zhong's voice came from the darkness: "I hope we don't forget each other." ”
I walked to the inner room, and lay down on my bed, my mind full of mess, and I fell into a deep sleep.
When I slept in the deepest place, I didn't know if it was a dream or a real thing, but I vaguely felt someone walk into the room and gesture on my head, as if it was Uncle Zhong, and I felt a force being sucked away. After a while, it seemed that someone else walked in, vaguely it was me, and the "me" staggered on top of me, and we merged together.
The whole process was weird in an instant, and I seemed to understand what was happening, Uncle Zhong took away the soul that was lent to me, and my own soul was released by Meng Po and reattached to my body.
When I woke up, it was dark outside, there were no curtains, and the sun was shining on my face. I sat up, still feeling groggy, and looked at my watch, but it was six in the morning.
I slept for six hours, but I still leaned on the head of the bed, lit a cigarette, and smoked as I remembered the events of yesterday, which seemed ethereal and long-lasting.
After thinking about it for a long time, I was imaginative, and when I realized that Wang Yue was dead, my heart felt like a pinprick.
I came to the living room outside, and saw that the hall was empty, Uncle Zhong was no longer there, and there was a handwritten note on the coffee table, the handwriting was left by Uncle Zhong, and there were only two words: take care.
I walked around the room, and I was still in a hurry to leave, I was tired and wanted to rest again. Uncle Zhong left, and the atmosphere became relaxed.
Last night, Wang Yue confessed that there was a sum of money left for me, and I thought about it, and I didn't know if I should take this money. It doesn't seem to be very good to take it, but logically speaking, I should take it, at least the money that Li Damin helped me advance to Uncle Zhong and have to pay it back. It's 10,000 smaller.
If it weren't for Wang Yue's matter, I wouldn't have fallen to this point.
Just as I was thinking about it, suddenly a voice came from the bedroom. I didn't care about it at first, but when I realized that something was wrong, I "Teng" stood up, this, I was the only one in this house, how could there be a sound?
I looked at the bedroom, where Wang Yue's body was. I was a little scared for no reason, but it was quiet at the moment, but the atmosphere was very tense.
It's good that Uncle Zhong doesn't want to go, when he leaves, I seem to have no backbone.
At that moment, there was another noise in the bedroom, as if something was rubbing. This time it was really real, it didn't look like it was accidental, but someone was deliberately doing it, and it was very rhythmic.
I wiped the cold sweat from my head, and suddenly thought of a possibility, it couldn't be something in the bardo realm that escaped, right? That mirror is the passage that connects the realm of the yang and the bardo, and if I can get in, something will definitely come out.
If I take the test, the one in the bedroom can't be a ghost, right?
I was so scared that I wanted to leave, and I felt that I didn't make a fuss and left like this, and I was really sad about this hurdle in my heart. No matter what, I have to clean up here before leaving, and besides, there is Wang Yue's body inside, no matter what, the dead are the greatest, and I can't let the strange things inside be ruined.
I went to the bedroom door, found the guy who didn't take advantage of it, and went to the bathroom to get a mop. Holding the mop stick tightly, he gritted his teeth and kicked open the bedroom door.
The door opened, and I was stunned.
The black smoke inside is gone, and the clear and clear room has a clear view. I saw a man, sitting in that coffin, wearing a mask, slowly turning his head to look at me.
My blood was boiling, and I seemed to think of something, and I felt that something was wrong. Wang Yue's soul has been scattered, and the person in the coffin only has her body, could it be that the evil ghost of the bardo realm has come to her body?
I could feel the people in the coffin looking at me, and I was standing in the doorway, clutching the mop tightly, and my breathing was about to stop.
The man stood up from the coffin, slowly took off the mask, revealing a fair and delicate face, it was Wang Yue. She looked at me and said softly, "Lin Cong." ”
"You, aren't you already ......" I could barely speak.
Her body was crooked, I subconsciously walked into the house, I wanted to help her but didn't dare, Wang Yue glanced at me with disgust: "Come here." ”
Her little appearance is really Wang Yue, I gritted my teeth and walked to the side to help her out of the coffin.
"Lin Cong," she looked at me, the expression on her face was very happy, "I'm still alive." ”
