Chapter 223: The Devil in Red
I really didn't expect to be so lucky to escape!
Fan Xueqi relaxed, she stood up and looked towards the other side of the river, only when she reached the bank, the width of the river narrowed, and even the opposite bank could be seen.
However, there was no old smoking gun on the other side of the river.
Is it to avoid the limelight?
The old smoking gun said before that he was a black businessman to avoid the official messenger of the Yin Division, and the domineering woman in white just now was a bad name, so it was possible for the old smoking gun to hide when he saw her.
Anyway, let's complete the task assigned by the old smoking gun first.
Fan Xueqi took out the small bottle, thinking that when she jumped back again, she must fill the eye drops, and she couldn't fall into the river like a piccolo again, otherwise it would be a trip for nothing.
but
She soon discovers that she has indeed come in vain!
Fan Xueqi got the task of collecting the dew on the petals on the other side and going back, but she soon found that all the petals on the other side were dry, and there was no shadow of dew!
Could it be that it came at the wrong time?
Dew, there are morning dew and night dew, morning dew refers to the dew condensed in the morning; Night dew is the dew that condenses at night.
What kind of dew does the old smoking gun want?
Or is it okay to be dewy at any time?
Now, it's daytime.
Alas!
Fan Xueqi felt that she might have to spend the night here.
Depressed!
So she lay down, and it was better to lie down than to sit, because when she lay down, the flowers on the other side could cover her figure, so that even if there was any more shadow, she would not be found.
But what she didn't expect was that as soon as she lay down, she quickly fell asleep.
This sleep, she lost track of time.
She would wake up because she heard a woman sobbing.
She woke up in a daze, and saw a woman in red by the river with her back to her, crying loudly, which was made by the woman in red.
...... woman in red?
Hell it!
The woman in red = the female ghost in red = the ghost!
That's the equation, right?
So Fan Xueqi was suddenly woken up by the ghost!
She, she, she, she doesn't know how to deal with the ghost! Moreover, I don't know why, but there is a strange perception in my heart, that is, I feel that the ghosts of the underworld are of a higher level and more powerful than the ghosts operating in the yang world!
Woo, so what should she do?
Fan Xueqi had a bitter face, and carefully hid his figure, hoping that the ghost would finish crying soon and leave after crying......
However, the ghost did not leave all night, and she kept crying on the bank of the river until dawn.
…… But it doesn't matter! The important thing is that Fan Xueqi did not collect half a drop of dew!
All the petals on the other side are dry, how can there be dew?
Fan Xueqi now seriously suspects that the old smoking gun tricked her over!
What to do?
Fan Xueqi couldn't collect dew, so he didn't want to go back.
So, she waited until the evening.
At night, I still haven't touched any of the petals that are wet.
It's over, Fan Xueqi feels that there is no way to complete this task.
She agreed with the old smoking gun that she could only return to the world if she collected the dew of the flowers on the other side - this was a contract, and if she couldn't complete it, the old smoking gun would never let her go back to the world.
She knew that there was a time limit for the soul to leave the body, and once the soul left the body for more than 7 days, the body would die, and when the body died, the living soul would also become a dead soul and could never be resurrected.
Could it be that she is going to be a ghost this time?
Fan Xueqi felt extremely desperate.
And when she was most desperate, the red-clothed ghost was still squatting on the bank of the river and crying, do you say it's annoying?
There is a saying in the world, called: "One punch to defeat the monster!" ”
Fan Xueqi is very irritable now, and she doesn't care if it's a ghost or not, anyway, she is about to become a ghost, they are all ghosts, what is there to be afraid of?
So Fan Xueqi was bold and rushed to the side of the red-clothed ghost, and scolded sharply: "Don't cry!" ”
“!” The red-clothed ghost was frightened by her, and subconsciously raised his head in her direction.
Stunning at first sight!
The head of the red-clothed ghost made Fan Xueqi, who is also a woman, so amazed that she couldn't close her mouth!
The white melon seed face, the delicate facial features of the red-clothed ghost seem to be kissed by God, and her temperament is enchanting with a wisp of innocence, you think she should be a ghost if she is beautiful, but she is so pure that she doesn't look like a ghost.
However, there is also a trace of flaws in the brilliance.
That is, the red-clothed ghost has a piece of red silk on his eyes, as if he is blind.
Her tears are either the standard blood tears of the ghost, or the crystal clear tears, and now there is a teardrop hanging on the tip of the chin of the red-clothed ghost, which actually makes Fan Xueqi feel a sense of pity of "I see pity".
Fan Xueqi's voice couldn't help but soften: "Okay, okay, don't cry, crying can't solve the problem." Otherwise, you tell me if there is anything you need my help with, and if I can help you, I will do my best to help you. ”
The red-clothed ghost: "Are you really willing to help me?" ”
"Hmm."
The red-clothed ghost pointed to the other side of the river and said, "I want to go that way." There is someone I love on the other side of the river, and I want to go over and meet him. Even if we only have a short breath together, I want to be with him again. ”
Fan Xueqi looked at the other side of the river and said, "What's so difficult about going over?" I'm smuggled over there, and when I go back, I'll give you a ride! ”
"Really?" The red-clothed ghost said in surprise.
"Hmm."
"Thank you." The red-clothed ghost finally changed his smile.
Fan Xueqi said: "No thanks. However, if you want me to help you, then you have to do me a favor. ”
The red-clothed ghost asked, "What's the hurry?" ”
Fan Xueqi said: "I came from there to find the dew on the petals of the other side here, but I have been here for a day or two nights, but all the petals of the other side are dry, and none of the flowers on the other side are dewed." Then I will not be able to complete my task, can you tell me how I will get the dew of the other side flowers? ”
"The dew of the flowers on the other side?" The red-clothed ghost showed a confused expression: "There is no dew here. ”
“!!”
So what is she going to do?!
When Fan Xueqi was anxious, the red-clothed ghost suddenly asked, "What is your relationship with that little ghost who always smokes me with a smoking gun?" ”
Bong?
Old smoking guns?
Fan Xueqi hesitated for a moment and said, "I don't know if the little ghost you are talking about is the one I know, but the ghost who called me over has always held a cigarette stick in his hand and smokes often, he is entrusted by my uncle, so he comes here every week to get the dew of the other side flowers, but this time I came over." ”
"That's him." The red-clothed ghost said, "He's the only one who comes every week." ”
It looks like an acquaintance!
Fan Xueqi looked at the red-clothed ghost, and suddenly became much kinder.
The red-clothed ghost sighed and said, "That hateful little ghost, knowing that my eyes are not good, still smokes my eyes every time he comes over, it's too much!" Girl, I think you're a good-hearted boy, why would you get involved with such an over-the-top imp? As the saying goes: those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to ink are black. You've been with this kind of evil imp for a long time, and I'm afraid you'll go astray, and I hope you're just meeting that overly evil imp, rather than having a deep friendship. ”
Embarrassment!
That's embarrassing!
"Ahem! Yes, I don't know him well, this time I just have a handle in his hands, and I have completed this matter, and I will ...... when I go back I probably won't have any more dealings with him. Fan Xueqi smiled awkwardly.
The red-clothed ghost nodded, she stood up, and said to Fan Xueqi, "Now, you can take me across the river." ”
Fan Xueqi was stunned for a moment: "But I haven't picked the dew yet." ”
The red-clothed ghost said, "You can send me over now, and after you pass, I will give you the dew of the flowers on the other side." ”
Fan Xueqi was embarrassed: "This, this order is wrong, right?" Sister, shouldn't you have helped me get the dew before we crossed the river? The old smoker said that the dew we want can only be collected on the flowers on the other side of this side. Although there are also other flowers on the other side, the flowers on the other side have not bloomed yet, so they cannot be used. If you let me go back now, how can I get the dew when I get back there? ”
