Chapter 38: Desperate Love (Part II)
Time seemed to stop in the monotonous sound of footsteps, and suddenly I heard a slight 'rustling' sound not far behind me, obviously someone was following us. I was about to look back to see which guy was stupid enough to use such indiscriminate tracking technology to get an axe behind me, when I suddenly felt Sister Xiaojie hold my hand harder. Her eyes, which were full of spirituality and brilliance, darkened slightly, and then quickened her pace.
The thick fog was blown by the wind from the east, and suddenly the whole forest could not be reached. The moonlight was gone, and I lost my sight, and I panicked in my heart, and I didn't know whether I was surrounded by darkness or fog, and whether there would be unexpected dangers in places I couldn't see. In the end, it almost exploded.
"Is Saya scared?" Sister Xiaojie said softly: "Don't be afraid, it's almost here, and I can be together forever." ”
There was a flash in my eyes, and I finally walked out of the woods.
In order to quickly regain my vision, I blinked vigorously before looking forward, but I couldn't help but froze. At the foot of the foot is a large round pit with a diameter of more than 300 meters, and the pit is very smooth around it, and it is impossible to see whether it is artificially caused or naturally formed. The most surprising thing is that there is a very large church in the middle of the pit, which is extremely strange in appearance, but it is a brand new church. There was a faint light, orange light in the church. The lights didn't seem to be stable, and the light cast on the ground was ethereal and silent, giving people an indescribable eerie aura. Strange, where do you seem to have seen this kind of sight?
"The church, the wedding dress, and the witnesses are all there. Let's get over it. Sister Xiaojie tidied up her wedding dress, then took my arm and walked slowly to the church, she took a deep breath, and then pushed the door and walked in.
"Little girl, what do you want to repent of today?" The priest, who was praying at the cross, turned around and asked with his teeth bared. I couldn't help but take an interest in him. The priest was about 50 years old, his face was pale and bloodless, and his skin had many brown markings that looked like corpse spots.
"Father, I want to marry him tonight." Sister Xiaojie turned sideways and stared into my eyes: "He and I are both truly in love, and we want to stay together forever for the rest of our lives." ”
The priest smiled. He looked at me with dull eyes and nodded, "I will definitely help you arrange this wedding well." ”
"Miss Yaojie, are you willing to marry Mr. Ye Buyu as your wife? And no matter poverty, sickness, or suffering, will you love him forever and ever? The priest asked.
Under the flickering thousand candles, Sister Xiaojie's solemn face showed a look of taste, she closed her eyes, and then reluctantly opened them, staring at me for a long time with fiery affectionate eyes: "I do." She smiled and said with tears in her eyes.
"Then Mr. Night Silence, are you willing to marry Miss Yaojie as your wife, and love her forever and ever, regardless of poverty, sickness, or pain?" The priest and Haruka Jie looked at each other, then waited patiently for my answer.
I sighed inwardly. Marrying Yaojie as a wife, isn't this exactly what I have dreamed of since I was a child? There is such a person I like who loves me so much, silently listens to my every word, cooks and washes clothes for me. It also warms me up in the winter when my hands feel cold. Isn't such a gentle person the marriage partner of my dreams? Why would I hesitate to take the final step? Just as I gritted my teeth and was about to say the words 'I do', the door of the church suddenly made a 'pop' and the door was kicked open.
"Xiaoye, it's good that I came in time." Huang Shiya walked into the church panting, she pointed to Sister Xiaojie and said loudly: "That woman is not Yaojie at all, no!" She's not even human. She's the puppet, the puppet we sealed and then escaped by some means. She's just trying to trick you into making a death pact with you and pulling you into her world. ”
"Shiya, we have always been good sisters, why do you want to say this about me?" Sister Xiaojie looked back at Shiya, and her voice began to choke: "Do you also like Xiaoye?" You want to take him away from me? ”
Huang Shiya snorted coldly: "Don't come with me, you can't confuse me." She looked at me and said, "Sayo, if you still don't believe me, I can prove it to you!" ”
She pulled out an old piece of brown paper from her back, "This is the Thackred Exorcism Formation that I 'borrowed' from Jame. Last time that guy was able to escape the seal, I don't believe she'll be able to escape this time. ”
"Don't!" Haruka screamed and hid behind me. I stood without a snort, full of contradictions. Huang Shiya did not hesitate to hold up the Sacriche Exorcism Array, and pronounced the incantation word by word in a clear voice: "O Saint from the Light, please use your compassion to dispel your fears. Let all that is darkness be to the earth! ”
Huge five stars appeared at his feet, accompanied by a strong white light pouring out of the huge magic array, and wisps of light lingered like life around all the people in the church. In the flash of light, the church began to crumble, and at last only charred ruins remained. This is the clearing where we sealed the puppet last time.
Time seemed to have stopped in the magic circle. The light flows slowly, like a whirlpool from the outermost layer to the innermost layer, and the light changes from slow dynamic to absolute static beside Haruka. In the end, more and more pale light accumulated suddenly flashed, and all rushed into Yaojie's body.
Yaojie screamed in pain. She covered her head with her hand, and her right hand reached out to me vigorously: "Xiaoye, why don't you say 'I do' yet." I love you, I love you more than I love my own life, why don't you say those three words? ”
I stood there in a daze, finally took a deep breath and smiled bitterly: "I'm sorry...... He who dies is dead. Although it will cause pain to the living, the living still have to live no matter how painful it is. Sorry, I can't go with you! ”
"Xiao Ye......" Haruka Jie looked at me desperately, her eyes full of resentment, so strong that it almost eroded the bone marrow.
I don't know how long it took for the light to dissipate. Silence returned to the clearing, where darkness had returned. Huang Shiya and I fell to our knees with all our bodies.
"Little night, let's mourn by the way. Sister Xiaojie won't be coming back. Shiya said to me with concern. I shook my head, my throat choked with pain: "Actually, I knew that Sister Xiaojie was a fake as early as when she suddenly appeared in front of me, but my subconscious didn't want to accept this fact, and blindly forced myself to believe that Sister Xiaojie was really resurrected, and she came back to me." ”
With a long sigh, I couldn't help but smile bitterly: "The writer Li Ao has a famous saying. He said that everyone can scold a bastard, but only I, Li Ao, can prove that you are a bastard. Hey, the first time I saw that, it immediately became my code of conduct. But now that I think about it, I'm actually a complete bastard. ”
"Little Night ......" Huang Shiya sat beside me and held my hand hard.
"Shiya, it's in this world, and you're not really Huang Shiya, right." I jerked my head up and looked into her bright eyes.
Huang Shiya's whole body was shocked, and then she asked in surprise: "Xiaoye, what are you talking about?" How could I not be the real me? ”
I shook off her hand and stood up: "Don't pretend anymore." The real Huang Shiya is culturally illiterate in the West, and she doesn't know what the Grim Reaper Contract is. Moreover, there are less than 50 of Thackred's exorcism arrays in the world, and the Seattle High School Psychic Society has only found one after collecting it for decades, and that one has long been used when sealing you. Right, Miss Puppete! ”
Suddenly, I felt the space around me start to distort. I calmly cried out, "Please stop torturing my will and destroying my mind." Let me go back. I have understood what you have been resentful and bitter for more than 100 years. ”
After a pause, I added, "I swear with my life that I will help you fulfill your wishes!" ”
