Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Woman in Yellow, Make a Deal
"Are you Tang Juan'er?" Ling Qiqi looked at the woman in yellow for a long time and asked.
The woman in yellow nodded, choked up and said, "What the son said yesterday...... But the truth? What happened to Xisheng on the way to get married? ”
Ling Qiqi looked at the golden bead flower in Tang Juan'er's hand, thought of Xisheng's persistence at that time, and sighed, "He met the robbers halfway, and in order to protect the wedding gift, he refused to run away and died. ”
Tang Juan'er heard Ling Qi's words, and suddenly tears rained down, her shoulders kept shaking, her face was buried in a handkerchief, and she whispered while crying: "I..... I thought that Xisheng was afraid of power and retreated....."
"Didn't you believe in Xisheng at the time?" Ling Qiqi asked anxiously. Xisheng slaughtered innocent lives for her sake and stayed in this world, just to tell her that she had not lived up to it in this life, but now Tang Juan'er is gorgeously dressed and ruddy, and she is the most favored lady beside the eighth prince.
When Tang Juan'er heard Ling Qiqi's words, she suddenly raised her head and stared at Ling Qiqi, tears rolling down her cheeks, "Do you know what it's like to be alone in an empty room dressed in red makeup and wedding clothes?" I waited all night and cried all night. ”
Ling Qiqi said angrily, "Do you know what he suffered for you? ”
At this time, Ling Qiqi's emotions were suddenly aroused, perhaps because of Lei Shen's matter, the emotions in his heart didn't know how to vent for a while, and he was excited in the face of Tang Juan'er.
"I never believed it." Tang Juan'er suddenly sneered: "Since I was a child, I never believed that anyone could give up everything for me, only Xisheng can give me a sense of living in the world." But do you know the feeling of desperate and hopeless at the time? ”
"What does it feel?" The spirit asked.
Tang Juan'er shook her head, "It's in vain to say anything now, it's come to this point, I'm afraid it's just that I don't have a chance in this life." ”
Ling Qi saw that Tang Juan'er's heart was like ashes, and she was angry, Xisheng had done so much for her, and she didn't know which ghost place in the underworld was atoning for her sins at this time, she was good, she looked as calm as water.
"You!" Ling Qiqi pointed at Tang Juan'er angrily, and said angrily: "Xisheng wants to stay in the world to see you because you have become a demon, and tell you that he has not failed you, and even did not hesitate to kill his life to absorb essence and blood, and now he is tortured every day in the underworld, are you so cold-blooded?" ”
Tang Juan'er listened to Ling Qi's words, her eyes seemed to be touched, and then she said coldly: "What does Gongzi mean that I will die now to be worthy of him?" ”
Ling Qi suddenly calmed down, from the moment Xi Sheng died, his life was over, no matter how much he did, it was just an obsession, why should the dead interfere with the lives of the living.
"I ...... That's not what I meant......" Ling prayed for relief: "It's just that I think he died too unjustly, and I think you are the only person he cares about, so I hope you can miss him a little more....."
Tang Juan'er looked at Ling Qi and suddenly smiled, "Originally, we could have gotten married, but there are too many people in the way." ”
Ling Qiqi looked at Tang Juan'er's smile, which was very desolate, but it was extraordinarily beautiful and moving, and it was completely different from her usual cold appearance.
"But I believe that what should come will always come, and they must also pay it back." Tang Juan'er suddenly smiled, as if she was happy.
Ling Qiqi saw that her change was too great, her heart was full of doubts, and she wanted to ask clearly, but Tang Juan'er opened her mouth first, she looked at Ling Qiqi coldly and asked, "Childe is a soul collector?" ”
"Sort of...... Ling Qiqi thought about it, although he was not a ghost, but he had encountered so many ghosts big and small, and he had recovered a demon, so he should be considered half a soul collector.
Tang Juan'er suddenly whispered: "Does that son know what to do if you summon the soul of the dead to the living?" ”
"You want to recruit Xisheng's soul?" Ling Qiqi raised his eyes, and suddenly became a little nervous.
Tang Juan'er shook her head and continued: "I have been with the Eighth Prince for some time, and once I saw a few people with white masks come to him, and after beating a few slaves to death in the backyard, he cast some spells, and then fed a few living guards, and since then I haven't seen those guards and people with white masks. I look like a forbidden technique, so I'll ask you. ”
Ling Qiqi was a little surprised, Bai Xi and Hei Yao had given her a lot of ghost knowledge along the way, wasn't the method Tang Juan'er said was the technique of resurrecting the soul from nine deaths? Use the desire of innocent souls to live, and then force them into the living, so that the living will have the power of evil spirits and walk freely in the world.
"What else do you know?" Ling Qiqi asked, from the moment she came to the world, she felt that something was wrong, starting from the slaughter of the first village where she settled, all the way forward was a tragic scene, even the Mumen sect was tragically destroyed, is it for the treasure map or someone deliberately planned a ghost-making?
"I don't know anything else, but I saw it by accident, and I thought it was weird and wrote it down." Tang Juan'er suddenly hesitated and continued, "Since Childe can talk to the Spirit of Xisheng, can you take me to see him?" ”
Ling Qi saw Tang Juan'er's expression, and it didn't seem to be pleading, but it was just a little more emotional than the indifferent eyes just now.
"Only the dead can go to the underworld...... "After the spirit prayed, something suddenly came to mind, and he continued: "After committing suicide, you can't be reincarnated as an adult forever!" ”
After Tang Juan'er heard Ling's prayer, she said tentatively, "It's okay if you call him, right?" After she finished speaking, she saw that Ling Qi still looked non-negotiable, and then said in a somewhat heavier tone: "I can help Gongzi do anything in the future." ”
Ling Qiqi scratched her head, she didn't need others to help her do anything, she couldn't let Tang Juan'er help her jump into the Lechuan River to find her own soul, right?
Just as she was about to refuse, Tang Juan'er immediately spoke up again: "No matter what, it's okay to sacrifice your life, even if you go to get the treasure map of the Pure Treasure Pavilion." ”
Treasure map? Ling Qiqi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked curiously, "Do you also know about the treasure map?" ”
"Who doesn't know today?" Tang Juan'er continued: "The Eighth Prince is the VIP of the auction, I will also go with him at that time, the Eighth Prince is bound to get the treasure map, if you want, I can help you steal it at that time, I just want to say something to Xisheng in person." ”
Ling Qiqi pursed his lips and touched his chin with his hand, this deal is really worth it, but this Xisheng has been arranged by the Hades King, how can they meet each other.
Ling Qiqi thought about it, and suddenly felt the wolf bell in his chest, and then raised his head and said, "Okay, deal!" ”
Tang Juan'er saw that Ling Qi agreed to her, and she could be regarded as putting down a big stone in her heart, so she thanked Ling Qi and turned around and left the room.
