Chapter 24O Funeral Procession
Voiceover –
The Taoist priest didn't go any further, and the bookstore was very quiet.
"Ye Jiangchuan! Ye Jiangchuan! The fat man gently poked Ye Jiangchuan with his elbow, "That merry woman is your best friend in your previous life?" ”
"Don't call her a merry woman!"
The fat man stuck out his tongue exaggeratedly: "What's wrong?" Are you still angry? It seems that this time you are really in the play! It's really your past life, Liu Yunsheng! ”
"Angry? Not really! I just think this woman is actually quite pitiful! Ye Jiangchuan said.
It is also a very happy thing to have a person who is so attached to himself, it seems that Ye Jiangchuan himself has become the person who is attached and happy.
Looking at Ye Jiangchuan's obsessive gaze, the fat man arched his shoulders and said, "Yo! It seems that you can't let go of that woman! Hey, dude, are you awake! She's a terrible one now..."
Xu Aqi interjected and hooked his mouth and asked, "Do you still like this woman?" ”
Ye Jiangchuan's back stiffened.
"I don't know!"
"Don't know? Do you like this woman or not, you don't know yet? ”
Ye Jiangchuan took a deep breath and said quietly: "I don't live with her in this life, how can I know if I still love this person?" She's like this because of me! If I die, there is really nothing else I can't let go, and I really want to go to the Nai River Bridge to find her and see if she is okay! ”
"Ye Jiangchuan? What are you talking nonsense? You are Ye Jiangchuan, not Liu Yunsheng! Don't die, it sounds weird and scary! Xu Aqi said.
"Huh? What about Taoist priests? The fat man asked.
"Maybe it's convenient to go!" Ye Jiangchuan said.
"Lin Chen is gone?"
The fat man found that Lin Chen, who had been sitting behind him, was also missing.
"Got a cigarette!" Ye Jiangchuan let out a big sigh and added: "However, it should also be back, it's been so long!" ”
"Nothing will happen, will it?" The fat man said.
"What else could be the matter? In broad daylight! Xu Aqi said.
"However, the convenience store is just across the street! How could he have been gone for so long a day? ”
"Otherwise, I'll take a look!"
Ye Jiangchuan said, got up and stretched out and walked out.
On the street, Ye Jiangchuan looked around as he walked. The owner of the convenience store said that Yi Xi remembered that Lin Chen was walking in the direction of the station. Ye Jiangchuan didn't understand what Lin Chen was doing at the station if he didn't go back to the rest area of the bookstore after buying cigarettes. There were a lot of people coming and going on the street, and there was still some distance from the station, so Ye Jiangchuan stopped.
It was foggy, gray, like a huge gauze, and the branches and wires looked fluffy.
There was chaos in front, the crowd flashed away, and Ye Jiangchuan saw a long stream of people coming over, with various colored cloth banners, noisy suona sounds, bursts of crying, and a very strong smell of gunpowder.
It was a funeral procession.
The drummer walked in front, and the people in the procession were dressed in plain clothes and dressed in linen and filial piety.
Some people hold long incense, some people hold up money paper, some people are supported, and handfuls of paper money are frequently thrown into the air, until they are four or five zhang high before they are scattered, and the sky is white. After the paper money was scattered, it fluttered in the wind and gradually fell, and the children followed behind to scramble, making a mess.
Ye Jiangchuan stood in the crowd of onlookers, stretching his neck and watching curiously. What years have it been, and there is still this! What a nuisance to the people! The police don't care! He thought, but when he saw a woman, the cry shook the earth, and while crying, there was something humming in his mouth, which seemed to be quite rhythmic.
In the crowd of onlookers, someone pointed out: "Don't look at her crying, it's a joke when you hear it!" ”
"How do you know?" Ye Jiangchuan asked curiously.
The man didn't tilt his head and looked at the funeral procession indifferently: "Can you hear the sadness?" ”
"How can a dead man not be sad?"
"See for yourself!"
Ye Jiangchuan followed the man's finger and looked over, and found that except for an old lady who was slightly sad, the rest of the people wore filial piety with a blank expression, and there was a person in it, dressed in a coarse white cloth robe, tied with hemp rope around his waist, wearing a filial piety hat, and white shoes.
Ye Jiangchuan couldn't help but wonder, why is this person so familiar?
Lin Chen?
The man looked blank and unresponsive.
Ye Jiangchuan felt that it was really incredible, he wiped his eyes vigorously with the back of his hand, and looked carefully, that's right! It's Lin Chen! Didn't he go buy cigarettes? Why did you dress like this and walk into the funeral procession?
Amid the sound of suona and crying, the team continued to move forward.
"Lin Chen!" Ye Jiangchuan waved his hand at the person in the team. Maybe it was because the surrounding sounds were too noisy, but the man didn't seem to hear it at all, and still walked apathically.
"Forest Array!" Ye Jiangchuan mustered up his courage, rushed over with an arrow step, grabbed the man's arm, and then gasped. That's right! This person walking in the funeral procession is Lin Chen. He didn't look at Ye Jiangchuan, as if he was drunk, his feet were unstable, one moment to the left, and another to the right.
Ye Jiangchuan hugged Lin Chen, "Dude! What's wrong with you? I've been looking for you for a long time, how did you get to the funeral procession! What a bad luck! ”
Lin Chen didn't speak, looking dizzy.
"Lin Chen! Didn't you go buy cigarettes? Why come here? What evil is this? Hey, how do you have a straight eye! ”
Ye Jiangchuan said for a long time, but Lin Chen didn't react, as if he was being pushed by a strange force, mechanically moving his feet, and continued to walk forward step by step.
"Lin Chen! Don't go! ”
Ye Jiangchuan followed a few steps, stopped, pondered for a moment, and hurriedly followed.
"Dude! Why don't you ignore me! You can't fall for something, do you? ”
Ye Jiangchuan suddenly remembered that people said that there is a ** medicine, pat the world and spin it, smell the lost soul, if you taste it, you will be at the mercy of others.
Isn't this guy drugged?
Otherwise, he wouldn't be this virtuous!
Ye Jiangchuan grabbed Lin Chen's shirt with his hand, "Lin Chen, you are evil!" Come with me! ”
As he was talking, Ye Jiangchuan's wrist was grabbed fiercely by a fine porcelain-like white hand, and the strength was so great that Ye Jiangchuan almost screamed in pain.
Obviously, that hand, six fingers.
The yin wind blew, and Ye Jiangchuan's heart trembled, and he almost didn't stand firm.
This white hand made Ye Jiangchuan think of that unclean thing all of a sudden. He had already heard Lin Chen and the fat man talk many times about the six-fingered woman they had experienced.
The real six-fingered woman is dead!
That's what they told him.
He could hear his heart pounding.
Looking up, it was a student-like woman, with a solemn expression, her appearance couldn't be more ordinary, but she was so thin that she lost her appearance, her face didn't look so reassuring, and her cheeks were sunken in, becoming a little harsh.
The flow of funeral people passed by them.
"Let's go together!"
Her voice floated over.
He looked at her suspiciously, still standing still.
Her face was expressionless, but the corners of her mouth twitched slightly.
"Let's go together!"
She repeated, her eyes full of anticipation.
Ye Jiangchuan took a deep breath,
He looked towards the funeral procession, the procession had already passed, and Lin Chen was nowhere to be seen.
He looked at her at a loss, nervous and scared because he knew who she was.
Even though her appearance had changed, her voice was still the same as before, her eyes were still the same as before, and he could feel every nerve beating in her.
He glanced at the funeral procession in the distance, pointed to the huge coffin, and asked:
"Who is the man lying inside?"
"The son of the Meng family!"
"Meng Jiagui?"
"Hmm!"
"Are you upset?"
"No!"
"He's your man! Do you really have no feelings at all? ”
"Nope! I hate him! ”
Ye Jiangchuan's hands and feet were cold at this time, and from her words, his guess was confirmed.
"But he's dead! Do you still want to hate? ”
"Hate! Incomparably hateful! ”
"Why do you hate so much?"
"He bullied me! He loves other women! I can't wait to drink his blood and pump his tendons! ”
Ye Jiangchuan saw her gritting her teeth, and was a little puzzled, "People say that people die like lights go out, you hate him so much, when is it a head!" Everyone else is dead! Didn't you torture yourself? ”
"No head! It's like my love! ”
"Your love? There is no end to it? ”
"I said it, forever!"
The woman's eyes lit up as she looked at him, and her voice became much softer.
Ye Jiangchuan's heart suddenly surged with indescribable and inexplicable emotions, and he asked tentatively, "You said it?" And with whom? ”
"Don't you remember?" Her voice was quick.
"What do I remember?"
"Have you forgotten everything?" She stared at him tightly.
Ye Jiangchuan seemed to remember something, "What if the one lying in it is me?" ”
"I'll lie down with you!"
Dead silence.
She stared at him, her eyes ethereal, "Let's go together!" ”
"Where to go? Grave? Ye Jiangchuan didn't know how he could say such a chilling sentence. But there seemed to be a strange voice deep inside him that told him that he couldn't go with her.
"Hmmm! Just together! ”
The voice floated over, cold and piercing.
Ye Jiangchuan's head shook like a rattle.
"Don't! No! ”
There was no doubt that Ye Jiangchuan had already determined who the woman who was talking to him in front of him was, and he stepped back as he spoke.
A hint of loss appeared on her face, and she reluctantly stopped, looking at him angrily.
"Didn't you say yes?" She said.
"What did you say?" He shuddered, trembling faintly.
"Okay, you and I..."
"Nope! I don't want to be with you! Ye Jiangchuan shouted, "Let me go!" Forget about me! ”
"Why? How can you make me forget about you! ”
"What's good for me!"
"I can't live without you for a long time! Whether you live or die! You're mine for the rest of your life! It's mine! ”
Fear suddenly struck, it was magnified countless times, and it rushed to Ye Jiangchuan all at once, he wanted to run away, take Lin Chen and run away with him! He looked around and could no longer see the flow of people at the funeral.
Darkness, when did the sky suddenly get dark?
With no sunlight around him, the darkness pressed his nerves, and he subconsciously took two steps back, then turned around and ran wildly towards the woods by the roadside.
