Chapter 237: The Man in the Painting (3)
I stood in the corner of the ward with the person in the painting who had taken off his black robe, and of course, Ah Ji floating in mid-air, no one could see us, and no one could touch us, we were now like a ball of air, not hindering the progress of anything, and we could also look at what was happening to others. It's just that I'm different from the people in the painting and Ah Ji, they are long-lasting, and I have a limited time, and once the hour passes, the runes and spells applied to me will be invalid, I looked up at the clock in the ward, and gestured to the two people around me to leave, I don't want the ward to have a big change of life.
Sitting on a hospital bench, I asked, "Is this your master?" But she's already been back. I don't seem to have anything to help her. The person in the painting said anxiously: "You should know that you have not been truly rescued, she is in this state, she may do something dangerous at any time in order to enter the dream, and no one can save her for a lifetime." In addition to bringing her to her senses. ”
I asked, "So what do you want me to do?" He smiled faintly and said to me, "Find my true body and burn it with the Three Flavors True Fire." Hearing his words, I was taken aback, and before I could speak, I heard Ah Ji interject: "But don't you know that when you know that your true body is burned, you will also be wiped out?" He nodded and said, "I know, but please do it." I leaned back on the bench, looking at the blue sky, feeling the breeze on my face, the outside world was really warmer than in the antique city, I smiled and said: "Interesting, the first time I met someone who came to me from thousands of miles away just to let me kill him, but you should always tell me your reasons, otherwise I won't kill innocents indiscriminately?" ”
He listened to me, smiled softly, and then said to me, "We are in a hurry, and we still have half of the story to tell the proprietress unfinished." ”
"You should have seen at a glance that I was an ominous thing." He spoke slowly, and there was not a trace of emotion in his voice, "Many, many years ago, a poor painter fell in love with a young lady from a big family who went up the mountain to pray for blessings. ”
I sighed: "A cheesy story that I already knew at the beginning, directly to me what will happen next." ”
He smiled and said to me, "Don't worry, in fact, the ending is just as cheesy." But the matter of their secret private meeting was known to the master, and the master knew that the young lady had a strong temperament and would not directly break them up, so he thought of a poisonous plan. He first asked people to secretly imitate Miss's handwriting to write a letter, and then personally went to persuade the painter to enter Beijing to catch the exam, saying that as long as he succeeded in winning the champion, he would marry Miss to him, and the painter believed it to be true, and wanted to say goodbye to Miss and go to Beijing to take the exam, but the Miss letter said that he would not see him again before he won the champion, and in desperation, he left directly. And the old man told the young lady the fact that the scholar left, and made the young lady mistakenly think that the scholar was a prodigal child, and when she was tired of playing, she left her directly, and the young lady was angry, so she directly agreed to the son and brother that the master promised her to match. Then after marriage, the young lady found that the son she married was an extremely bad person, she missed the painter every day, and looked at the portrait that the painter had given her before, and her feelings for the painter were both love and hate, and soon after, she died. Three years later, the painter won the champion, returned to his hometown, and came to ask for a foreign wife, but Miss Zhi was already married, and died of illness, and he also loved and hated Miss, so his health deteriorated, and soon after, he also died. ”
"So my portrait of the past between them is simply a murderous thing, because it entrusts the artist's emotions, every life I will automatically find the reincarnation of the young lady, and then accompany her instead of the painter, probably because the feelings are too strong, the reincarnation of each young lady will enter my dream, the weaker willpower will be completely immersed in the dream, can't distinguish between dream and reality, I thought I was here to protect them, but almost none of them were killed by me, and ended up with a tragic ending, The same is true of the master of the first life, I don't want to see a tragedy happen again, so please burn the real body directly. ”
I looked at him and asked, "Don't you have nostalgia?" ”
He shook his head and said to me, "There is no nostalgia, only boredom, I am a soulless being, I have been attached to an ancient painting for thousands of years, repeating the same dream over and over again, their experience is really bad." And my hands are indirectly stained with the blood of previous masters, I don't want to repeat it, give me a relief. ”
Listening to his words, my heart has acquiesced to his words, yes, what is the difference between living like this and dying, thousands of years ago, a painting of people with human spiritual sense, when he opened his eyes, he thought he was lucky, but he didn't know, this is the beginning of his greatest misfortune.
I said to Ah Ji, who had been immersed in sadness after listening to this story: "Don't be sad here anymore, hurry up and go to Zhang Ning's rental house to get the ancient paintings." ”
She was startled by my loud voice and ran away, and I said to the invisible transparent person next to me, "Wait a minute, I'm going to take a good look at what you really look like." ”
His laughing voice came a little helplessly: "Actually, it's not what I look like, this is what the painter looks like." ”
I listened to him, thought about it for a while, then nodded and agreed with him: "That's true, you're right. "Then I added;" Are you sure I really want to burn your real body? You're sure you've lived enough. ”
His voice this time obviously carried a trace of dissatisfaction, he said to me: "Don't ask again, I will hesitate if I ask again, in fact, this world is so big, so beautiful, I haven't had a chance to go out to see it, I have lived in vain for so many years, and I still live in the little girl's bedroom every day, repeating the love and hatred of young people over and over again." Actually, it's a pity. But if I don't die, what will the master do? She won't survive either, so I'd better die by myself, I'll live enough anyway. ”
I nodded, with a look of sudden realization: "It turns out that you have lived enough, so forget it, I still wanted to help you." ”
"What do you mean?" As soon as my words fell, he immediately opened his mouth in shock.
I pretended to be very sorry and said, "Originally, I had other ways, and I didn't have to burn your real body, and I could save your master, but since you have lived enough, then I won't bother to bother, so forget it." ”
His voice obviously became eager: "Boss, you can't see death without help, I haven't lived enough, this world is so beautiful, I still want to live well." Boss, help me, I beg you. ”
Finally let this untouchable boy bow his head in front of me, who let him pretend to scare me in my pawnshop, he really deserves it. My anger was also out, so I didn't bother to tease him anymore, I said: "Don't worry, I will help you, but your real body, that is, that ancient painting, will lose its demagogic power from now on, it will become an ordinary painting, and you, still can't have a physical body, or the way it is now, are you willing?" ”
He should have nodded, but I couldn't see it, next time I would let him wear a black robe at any time, and I silently made a decision in my heart. "I do, no problem." He agreed.
After thinking about it, I added: "Moreover, you need to serve me for a year first, I need your strength, of course not to do bad things, do you agree?" ”
He replied cheerfully: "No problem, who asked the boss lady to do me a big favor." ”
"However, although the demonic power of your real body will be removed by me, and I will not let Zhang Ning come into contact with that ancient painting again, but you have to understand that Zhang Ning still has a lot of problems to overcome, she is too cowardly, not brave, and dare not work hard to fight for it, so even if you don't affect her, her mental state can't guarantee that she can live well, and the root of the real problem should be on himself. And not on your body. ”
After listening to my analysis, he nodded at me. He said to me, "I know, I will not interfere in their lives in the future, nor will I try to find any of my masters, their lives are new, and they do not need my interference or my protection." ”
Listening to his assurance, I felt a little relieved: "It would be nice if you understood this." ”
As she spoke, Ah Ji had already come back with the ancient painting, I took the ancient painting from her hand, took out a peach wood sword from the bag on her back, and then condensed the three flavors of true fire, Ah Ji looked at me with a serious look, quickly rushed over and grabbed my hand, and shook her head at me and said: "Boss, you don't really want to burn his real body, don't, you are too cruel like this." I was grabbed by her hand, blocking the spell from being implemented, and before I had time to explain it to her, I drank directly to her: "Get out of the way." "Then continue with the spell you just had. After a burst of red light, the ancient painting fell to the ground, I asked Ah Ji to pick up the ancient painting and put it in my bag, Ah Ji realized that he had just misunderstood me, smiled embarrassedly, and quickly helped me to put the painting up.
I said to the person in the painting, "It's none of your business now, you have been away from the painting for so long, you must be very weak now, so let's recover first." ”
He answered, "Okay, boss." I went straight to the scroll, and when I was done with all this, I breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the bench.
At this time, I noticed that the atmosphere around me was very strange, as if someone had been watching me, I seemed to look around unintentionally, and the people around me turned their heads weakly, not daring to look at me, for fear of being discovered by me. I remembered what had just happened, and I couldn't help but stick out my tongue and laugh in my heart. I just talked to a person in the painting, a water ghost for a long time, although I know what I am doing, but the people around me can't see anything, in their eyes, I am a self-talking neurotic, not to mention that I just held a peachwood V sword and waved it at a painting for a long time, in their opinion, I am indeed a person with a brain problem.
I leaned back on the bench, trying my best to ignore the gazes of the people around me, and couldn't help but smile.
