Chapter 66: Nanke
In the blink of an eye, it was summer. The man Wen Wan bought back lay on the bed for less than a month, and then was thrown away by Lin Yuan to the shack by the river to guard the crabs, and ate three meals with the Feng family.
Because he never spoke, Wen Wan took it upon herself to give him the name of a mute, and gave him two old clothes of Lin Yuan.
In the middle of the night, Wen Wan was still sleeping on the chrysanthemum pillow, but Lin Yuan stepped lightly past her and got out of bed, standing aside and dressing.
Outside, the rain was pouring, the crystal rain curtain smashed on the ground, and the water splashed everywhere, which was quite a bit of rain hitting the plantain and falling into the courtyard.
Lin Yuan quickly put on his robe, and after a gentle kiss on his forehead, he put on a hat and gently closed the door and rushed into the rain without saying a word.
In such heavy rain, the water in the ditch will rise, and he will go to the big river dozens of miles away to intercept some fish and shrimp with a net. The big ones can be exchanged for some silver in the market, and the small ones can be eaten at home.
A bowl of braised crucian carp with chopsticks, Ah Xian ingots can eat a lot of more rice, and more importantly, there is a white lotus flower that Wan Niang likes in the river.
Wen Wan slept deeply, with a shallow pear vortex hanging on her lips, and she didn't notice Lin Yuan's movement at all. Instead, he opened his eyes and frowned and snorted twice, and the storm outside opened the door, and gusts of cold wind poured into the house. It was a little cold, so he drilled into her mother's arms.
Wen Wan opened her eyes in a daze, wrapped her coat tightly and got out of bed to close the door. At this time, a fiery red lightning suddenly slashed down, and Wen Wan trembled, and saw that there were sporadic fires in the courtyard, which were quickly extinguished by the rain curtain.
She touched her arms, which were wet with the rain, and it was cold and biting. After closing the door and crawling into the quilt, she saw that she was looking at her clapping her hands, so she smiled and gently patted the girl in her arms to sing a lullaby to her to lullaby.
Wanwan quickly fell asleep, and Wen Wan put her into the quilt and couldn't open her eyes, so she might as well have a "babbling" scream outside the door, flickering and flickering, and the mournful tone was gloomy.
Her heart trembled, and she quickly got into the quilt and hugged her daughter to pretend to sleep.
Almost at the same time, a cool breeze swept through her ears, and the biting chill made her shiver uncontrollably. Rao is she is well-informed, and when she heard the two thin and ethereal male voices outside, she still couldn't stop her face from turning pale.
"Big brother, is it big or small?" A whimpering sound sounded behind her, almost startling her soul.
"There is only one person on the roster," the indifferent and shrill voice did not have a trace of pyrotechnics.
"What about us?" The tone was full of excitement.
"Don't pay attention to the big ones, let's just pay the errands, and then take the small ones." The small one who drank Meng Po soup can't be kept, and it is the fault of the underworld to stay.
As for the bigger ones, he didn't know how many people he had seen, and he couldn't see the origin clearly, and the two of them didn't want to provoke them.
Wen Wan listened to their words, but she wanted her daughter's life and couldn't help but be horrified, closing her eyes and panicking like a drowning person, desperate.
She looked down at the quiet and well-behaved girl in her arms, and her heart was like a knife. After a while, he lifted the quilt and got out of bed with a snow-white face: "This damn God, it rains and makes people's bones hurt!"
She hugged the bend so tightly that she pulled open the door and ran to the kitchen with her head down despite the heavy rain, muttering "It's cold, it's cold!" ”
God knows how panicked and scared in her heart when she was cold and scared with the two things that were floating in the air, and she squeezed her fists again and again, only to hold back the tears that spewed out and remained silent.
"Huh?" The phantom circled around Wen Wan, a grimace of flesh and blood waving in front of her.
Wen Wan lowered her head and lowered her eyes to avoid it, and the one was even more interested, stretching out her blood-red tongue to lick her face.
"The hour is coming, take it with you!" Another shrill and flickering voice sounded coldly, the king of Hades told people to die for the third watch, how could he keep people until the fifth watch?
As soon as the words fell, Wen Wan's eyes went dark and she lost consciousness. When I woke up again, I was already on a stone bridge, and under the stone bridge was a pool of blood, and many people were standing or sitting in the middle, looking miserable.
She didn't know where she went, and only a demure girl on her side held her hand tightly: "A-Niang, don't be afraid, I've been here once." ”
Wen Wan felt that this place seemed to be very cordial in a dream, and as for knowing that she was dead, the thought of what would happen to the family only vaguely flashed in her mind. As for the one who called her mother, she was probably a fool!
After getting off the bridge, she and the girl walked barefoot into a path, surrounded by flowers and vines, but gentle but only concerned about the big bewitching red flowers.
The demure girl saw her shaking and shook her hand: "A-Niang, the flower on the other side." Modo, look, you will be captured! ”
The fertilizer of this flower is the soul that is adrift and helpless, because there is no one to sacrifice and cannot be reincarnated.
Wen Wan turned her head to look at her, and called out in a daze: "Bend? ”
If you are not a fool, you can only bend.
The demure girl smiled brightly, and the flowers were colorless: "Well, A-Niang, I'm here." ”
Wen Wan nodded, and instead took her weak and boneless hand and walked forward. The heavens and the earth were chaotic, and it was pitch black, and from time to time, the blue-faced and fanged giant beast opened its bloody mouth to devour the souls of the people who came and went, and the crystal dripping saliva seemed to drip onto Wen Wan's body.
She couldn't help but pull Wanwan to avoid it a little farther, but Wanwan said: "A-Niang, don't be afraid, they only eat evil spirits." If you do evil in your previous life, you don't deserve to be sent to the underworld, so it's just a matter of beating your teeth and sacrificing these nightmares. ”
Wen Wan stood still and touched her head, her voice was gentle and firm: "A-Niang protects you." ”
Wanwan smiled sweetly, and she pointed to the endless river in front of them: "A-Niang, you can't go." ”
When the soul crosses the Lechuan River, there is no return.
Wen Wan smiled casually: "Then let's wait here." ”
What were she waiting for, she didn't know, she just stared at the colorful fish jumping in the river in front of her.
Just when Wen Wan saw the fish bite the souls of others and swallow them, the two ghosts escorted behind them knelt straight down, trembling and touching the ground with their heads: "Little ten thousand deaths!" The little one is bound by the decree of the law, I don't know that you are here, I hope you will be merciful and forgive! ”
After speaking, he trembled like chaff, shrunk and knelt down.
Wen Wan turned around and saw Lin Yuan dressed in white, standing behind her with fluttering clothes, the green silk like ink was tied high, and the ends of his hair fluttered in the wind more and more like jade, like a fairy. Bend narrowed her eyes and looked at her stupid dad in a daze.
But Wen Wan only glanced at him and then turned her head, looking at the Lechuan River again in a daze. This is not her Lin Yuan, although the form is similar, the god is not similar. What this person's eyes reflect is the ice that will not melt for thousands of years, not her.
"Get out!" His thin lips opened lightly, and he slowly spat out a word.
The two ghosts who were invincible were suddenly as happy as if they had escaped death, and after giving a deep salute to "Lin Yuan", they quickly stumbled and fled incognito.
After sending the ghost away, "Lin Yuan" turned around and waved at Wen Wanshui's sleeve, Wen Wan lost consciousness again, she only faintly heard a sigh, as if she was happy and worried.
When she woke up, she was sleeping upright on her own bed, still sleeping in her arms, and she turned her head slightly to see a few graceful white lotuses lying quietly on the low table.
