My repeated questions made Zhang Xiaoyun's face show a look of confusion and sadness.

"I can't tell what happened?" She shook her head, "All I know is ...... In the direction of the first ridge, there was a strong attraction, and I couldn't help but go to that place! My grandfather used to go to Fangjiaao when he was younger, so he followed me and went there as well, but the result was ......"

She paused, not finishing.

But the sad look on her face almost wanted me to reach out and take her into my arms.

I didn't stretch out my hand, after all, she was just a ghost, and in a dream I could hold her and kiss her, but in reality, I couldn't give her substantial comfort.

"I don't remember exactly where I was or what happened in the rest of the day! By the time I became conscious, I was back at home, but I didn't know who I was, or even that this was my home! It wasn't until my grandfather came back from Linnan and told me who he was and who I was, that I remembered everything at once! ”

I suddenly remembered that Meng Xiang had also said that when she woke up from her deep sleep, for a while, her mind was blank, and she didn't know where she was, or even who she was.

It wasn't until she saw me rushing to her by name that she remembered everything at once.

But in the days when she was asleep, she didn't remember whether she had a dream or what she had dreamed.

And Zhang Xiaoyun is probably attracted by that statue.

Although she seems to be affected many times more than Meng Xiang, she is a ghost after all, while Meng Xiang is a living person, and some differences are very normal.

So I opened my mouth and asked, "Since your grandfather has already told you who you are and who he is, you should have remembered me a long time ago, but the last time I came, why did you ignore me?" ”

What I know for sure is that Uncle Zhang had already returned here at that time. At that time, I once felt a gloomy atmosphere, thinking that if it wasn't for Zhang Xiaoyun snooping in secret, it would be Uncle Zhang.

Zhang Xiaoyun did not answer my question immediately, but lowered his head, and a bitter expression appeared on his face.

"Because...... The taste of missing is not pleasant! ”

It took a long time for her to speak slowly, and her voice was so far away that it sounded like she was talking to herself.

"Every time you came to see me before, from the moment you left, I would ...... Looking forward to seeing you back! So this time, take advantage of the ...... I just regained my memory and saw you...... It seems very strange, I want to forget about you! Moreover, Officer Meng also came with you, and I met you, but it was just difficult for you to do! ”

Her voice became lower and lower, and by the end of the sentence, it was almost ethereal and inaudible.

But I think it was this last sentence that was the main reason why she didn't appear.

And I, imagining that as soon as I left, she was always looking forward to my return, and my heart involuntarily softened into a pool of warm water.

I sighed softly, took two steps towards her, and finally reached out and took her into my arms.

Of course I couldn't have picked up anything, but she smiled at me shyly and snuggled up in the crook of my arm as I forced.

I tried to touch her many times in broad daylight, but all I could do was air.

Today, though, I still don't feel any weight from her, but I can feel a cool air.

She's a ghost, not a human. And now, I do have a very special ability to perceive.

"Then do you want to forget me now?" I asked, naturally with tenderness.

"From the moment you left with Officer Meng, I ...... I regret not going out to meet you! It's just that...... There were a lot of things in the past that I had forgotten, but those days...... But it's very obvious in retrospect, so I think, don't say I'm a ghost, even if I'm a human, I'm not worthy of you! ”

She lowered her head, and there was a feeling of wanting to cry.

I think of all the hardships she has endured in the past, and my heart wells up with infinite pity.

It's a pity that I can't hug her fiercely, so I can only look at her with tenderness.

"That...... Ding Hui from Nanchuan County, have you ever done anything to be sorry for you? I asked softly.

I thought it must have been a big scar on her, but this question was in my mind, and I had to ask it clearly.

Zhang Xiaoyun still lowered her head, but she did not refuse to answer, but spoke with bitterness and faintly.

"He actually...... It's my first love! She said.

She was a ghost, and what I saw in my eyes was nothing more than an illusion she projected into my mind.

But maybe it was because I felt her sadness at the moment, and I actually saw that there were two teardrops rolling down her eyes.

"I didn't even have my sixteenth birthday at that time, and one day I ...... The man surnamed Ding came to our house with two people to spend the night, saying that there is a place called Yilinling, where the scenery is said to be very charming! He asked me to go with me, but I was too timid to go, and he did not force it, but went with his two companions. But from that day on, he would often come into the mountains and buy me some beautiful clothes and some delicious snacks. I'll know a few words, and that's what he taught. He also told my grandfather that he was a section chief of the county power supply bureau, and that he would help our family get wires so that our family could also use electricity. He didn't lie, and a few months later, the county power supply bureau actually brought the wires to our house and helped install electric lights in our house. Even this hotel was opened by him at the suggestion of my grandfather, and he helped my grandfather fix up several rooms. ”

She paused. I think about her love at that time, and Ding Hui is not bad looking, and she is constantly attacking, it is natural for her to be moved.

But I didn't interject, just waited quietly for her to continue.

But my grandfather was very wary of him, and in order to find out his details, my grandfather also went to Nanchuan County. When I came back, my grandfather told me that he was already married and had two children. But I couldn't listen to my grandfather at all, and I even felt that even if he was just married, even if he was missing an arm and a broken leg, I still had to be with him! ”

She paused again, and raised her eyes to peek at me.

I hurriedly spoke, so that she would not feel that I would be upset by it.

"I can understand you! When I was young, everyone would have that impulse, even if I died for love! I said.

"Yes, at that time, I wanted to die to prove that I loved him!"

She smiled bitterly, lowered her head again, and continued.

"Just because...... With him, my grandfather was angry at me for the first time, scolding me for being disobedient and unfilial, so I was angry and simply ran quietly to the county to find him. When he saw me suddenly, he was very happy, and took me to Linnan to play for a few days, and he told me that he really liked me, and said that he wanted to divorce his wife and marry me. Even after returning from Linnan, he took me to meet his eldest brother. He told me that his eldest brother had done everything since he was a child, and even if he wanted to get a divorce, he had to have his eldest brother's nod. I was happy and felt like I wasn't looking at the wrong person, but it turned out ......"

I saw her crying again, but I couldn't hold her tight, so I could only sigh and comfort her, "Otherwise, let's not talk about this!" ”

"No, I'm going to say!" She immediately shook her head, "I should have told you everything about me a long time ago, to let you know that I wasn't actually ...... I was born so fond of vanity and didn't know what to check, and when I saw a man from the city, I wanted to marry someone, so I could leave the mountains and go to the city as soon as possible! ”

As for her "love of vanity and ignorance of inspection", I honestly did think so, after all, she had shown great hospitality to more than one of her fellow travelers who had come to stay here, and even promised her personal promises.

But then I got along with her, and I already felt that she was not the same as the "love for vanity and lack of inspection" as I thought.

And today, since she wants to say everything, it is also a kind of release and relief for her.

So I stopped doing it, just quietly listened to what she had to say.

"When I met his eldest brother, his eldest brother didn't stop him from interacting with me on the spot, but I didn't know why at the time, I felt that the way his eldest brother looked at me was very scary! Later, he asked me to go back to the hotel first, and he talked to his eldest brother privately for a while, and then when he returned to the hotel, his face became gloomy and very scary! ”

She stopped again.

I had a hunch that something terrible was going to happen to her, but at times like these, I thought my questioning would make her feel supported.

So I asked her, "His brother won't let him stay with you?" ”

I knew it wouldn't be that simple, but if I asked too directly, it would hurt her.

"No!"

She shook her head, and her originally bitter and sad face showed a little cold.

"That night, I also asked the guy surnamed Ding if his eldest brother wouldn't let him be with me, but he told me not to ask more. At that time, I was very well-behaved and obedient, and I didn't dare to ask if he didn't let me ask. Outcome...... The next day he left me alone in the hotel, and I thought he was going to work, so I didn't blame him at all. But in the evening, he brought back some delicious food and drink for me to eat for dinner, and after I ate it, I felt ...... Gratgy and just want to sleep! And then...... And then...... I thought I was dreaming, but I actually dreamed of ...... I actually dreamed of ......"

She began to sob, her head bowed and she couldn't stop crying.

I had already guessed what was happening, and was about to stop her from going on, but she looked up, sad and angry.

"I thought I was dreaming, because when I woke up, I was alone in the hotel! But...... He didn't show up again that morning, but in the afternoon he came out of nowhere and said he was going to take me home. His face was so cold, and when I asked him what was wrong and what had happened, he told me that I should know very well in my own heart. I told him I didn't know, and he said...... Then he said...... Then he actually said, if I want to continue to stay in Nanchuan County, I can only be his eldest brother's woman in the future! ”

She said a few "and then he said", one more poignant and more angry.
