Chapter 5 Forgetting and Leliing
It's getting late.
He was walking down the street with a few friends with a sugar gourd, when he suddenly heard a cry coming from an unknown alley.
A boy quickly ran behind him and pulled him into the alley, his teeth chattering with fear: "This... I'm afraid it's not... Yes... There are ghosts. ”
He was already panicking in his heart, and he was even more frightened when he heard the words, but he still had to pretend to be fearless: "Don't be afraid! There I am! I'll take a look! You guys are waiting for me here! As he spoke, he didn't forget to pat his chest.
"We'll wait for you to come back!" Several people said in unison.
“……”
After a while, he asked, "Are you really not going to keep me?"
"Oops, go!" One of the boys pushed him straight down the alley.
When he came in, he had no choice but to find the source of the cry.
Suddenly, he exhaled sharply, and walked briskly as if he had made up his mind, and his little pale face looked a little deadly.
The cry drew nearer, and his heart beat faster and faster, until not far away stood a child with a disheveled head, and when the child saw him, he hurried towards him, and he turned and ran out of the alley as fast as he could.
Suddenly, he tripped over a rock and fell to the ground, and when he saw the child who was about to catch up with him, he closed his eyes and shouted, "Ah! Don't kill me! I didn't mean to break in! Help me! ”
For a long time, the boy did not move at all, but stood in front of him and looked at him.
And he opened his eyes and looked at it, what kind of ghost is this, this is clearly a red and swollen little girl with crying eyes.
This made him very ashamed, he was so cowardly, and his face turned red because of it.
The boys outside the alley laughed from ear to ear when they saw this scene, and one of them sneered: "What, I thought he was so powerful, but it turned out to be a bad seed, hahahaha!" Let's all go, I'm too lazy to look at him. ”
He couldn't have imagined that someone who was usually good could say such words to him now, and his eyes turned red for a while.
When the little girl saw that someone finally came, she ran to him excitedly, wanting him to take her to find her mother, who would have thought that he would run away, and now she still looks like she wants to cry after stumbling.
When the little girl saw him crying, she wanted to cry even more, she sniffled and hugged him clumsily to comfort him.
After a while, he got up from the ground, patted the dust on his clothes, and then took the little girl's hand and walked in the direction of his house.
"Mother! I picked up a little girl! ”
The mother was speechless.
But when I saw this little girl, I was excited: "Isn't this the girl from the family in front of us?!" The family must be in a hurry now. With that, the mother picked up the little girl and went to the house.
At dinner, he asked his mother, "Mother, when will I see her again?"
"Next time, my mother will take you to her, so that you can familiarize yourself with the way back."
He didn't eat any of the happy meals he had eaten, and he was bouncing back and forth in the house.
If my mother says this, it means that he can go to her often!
Twelve years later.
She has grown into a big girl like a flower.
He also spent all these years with her, and his love for her became stronger and stronger.
When he finally mustered up the courage to show his love, he also knew that she was also attached to him.
In this way, the two spent another three years together, and the two families had already set a wedding date, but they didn't want her to be favored by the eunuch.
Just one day before she was about to marry him, they made a vow that "in order to see the love of this life again, they will never drink Meng Po soup after death".
The next day, he watched her get into someone else's sedan chair, but he couldn't.
Day and night lovesickness, he finally couldn't stay up one day, he lay on the bed and raised his hands in the air, as if he was caressing someone's cheek, so gentle.
"Mother... I'm like... See... She... Finish. ”
When he woke up again, he had arrived at the underworld, and he asked Meng Po, "How can I stop drinking this soup and see her again in the next life?"
Meng Po said lightly: "In order to see the favorite of this life in the next life, you can not drink Meng Po soup, but you must jump into the Lechuan River, and wait for thousands of years to be reincarnated, in this thousand years, you may see the person you love most in this life walking on the bridge, but the words can't be connected, you can see her, she can't see you."
He smiled.
Meng Po asked him why he was laughing?
He said, just because they had agreed not to drink this Meng Po soup.
With that, he jumped into the Lethe River.
Finally, one day he saw her on the bridge of Naihe, and his hands trembled with excitement.
I saw that she asked Meng Po what she was doing, and then pondered for a long time, and then took the bowl in Meng Po's hand and drank it.
His face was full of incredulity.
He opened his mouth and shouted desperately, desperately calling her name, but she couldn't hear her.
He wanted to leave the Lechuan River, but he couldn't.
He always thought that one day, they would be reunited.
He laughed again.
He laughed at himself for being too stupid.
He laughed at her for making their vows.
For thousands of years, he saw her walk across the Nai He Bridge over and over again, drinking bowls and bowls of Meng Po soup, but he couldn't think of him anymore.
One day she came.
She, like him, jumped off Lethe without hesitation.
But she was not for him, but for another.
