Chapter 6: Underground Lovers

There is a bamboo forest outside the Taoist temple, there are stone benches and stone tables and other things in the forest, at this moment, the breeze comes slowly, the bamboo leaves are rustling, the air in the forest is fresh, refreshing people's hearts. ~with~dream~small~say~ั‰~suimะตng~lฤ

If it weren't for a middle-aged Taoist priest standing opposite, Ye Liang would really close his eyes, take a few deep breaths, and feel the gift of nature.

Dao robe! She was not happy when she looked at the dress. Especially the expression of Autumn Leaves, similar to Yuan Shou, is also a light and breezy appearance.

Zhao Nan said in a low voice: "This is other people's territory, don't be emotional." โ€

Yuan Shou is the "gutter" and shame that Ye Liang overturned for the first time, she has always been invincible, but she didn't expect to be deceived by a little Taoist.

You lied to me, I lied to you, calculating and calculating, and I don't know how much true love there is left for each other.

Ye Liang straightened his waist and walked over, Zhao Nan followed, Lao Jia lowered his head and drooped his head, looking absent-minded.

The news brought by Ye Liang was too shocking, and Lao Jia subconsciously thought that it was impossible at first, Daoist Qiuye couldn't do this kind of thing, but Miss Ye and Ling'er didn't know each other, why did they come to tell such a lie? As the saying goes, flies don't bite seamless eggs, what did Michicho Akiba do back then?

Walking closer, Qiu Ye pointed to the stone bench and said, "Miss Ye, Mr. Zhao, please sit down, Lao Jia, you also sit down, please listen to me." โ€

Lao Jia watched the two sit down very calmly, he had no choice but to sigh, sit on the side, look at Qiu Ye and ask, "We are old friends for more than 20 years, you can't lie to me about anything." โ€

Qiu Ye smiled bitterly: "I only lied to you about that one thing, I didn't think that I would have to face it in the end after so many years, where did you learn about Ling'er and me, Miss Ye...... Those things? โ€

After asking this, Ye Liang frowned slightly.

Everyone in the world is silent, strange and confused, this Taoist priest catches ghosts and eliminates evil spirits is a matter of course, if he says that he has seen Ling'er's soul here, what should he do?

Zhao Nan saw that Ye Liang was embarrassed, and explained on the side: "Which line of work we do, Secretary Wu knows better. โ€

Xiao Wu explained to Qiu Ye: "Senior brother, these two said that they were said by Ling'er, and they can't be lies, I can trust them." โ€

Hearing this, Ye Liang glanced at Xiao Wu lightly and did not speak.

Lao Jia became excited and stood up: "What did Ling'er say to you, what did she say?" โ€

"Miss Ling'er said that she fell in love with Akiba Dao Chang back then, and on the night of the accident, she made an appointment with Dao Chang to meet at the ancient well."

Zhao Nan said slowly, while Ye Liang stared at Akiba's expression with a good expression.

"Ah, I see, so you didn't dare to meet in Shangyingpan, but went to Zhongyingpan? Autumn leaves, it turns out that you have been with Ling'er for a long time...... But why don't you say it? โ€

Lao Jia's voice trembled, obviously extremely excited.

"Because I saw your eyes, as long as Ling'er appeared, you never missed your eyes, I know your thoughts about Ling'er, I was scared and timid after Ling'er's accident, I hid it for twenty-two years, yes, that day Ling'er and I made an appointment to meet by that ancient well."

"But you pushed her into a well and drowned."

Ye Quan's voice was cold, and Xiao Wu couldn't help but tremble.

"No, I didn't do it. I didn't find her when I went, I waited a while and still didn't see her, I thought she might have something to do, so I left, and as I was leaving, I looked back at the soaphorn tree, and looked at the well, and she might have been in the well at that time, but I didn't know it at all! โ€

Autumn leaves close their eyes, and the scene of that night comes back to their eyes.

The transparent moonlight shrouded everything, and there were many mature soaphorns hanging on the soaphorn tree at the entrance of Zhongyingpan Village. The mouth of the old well was so black that I couldn't see what was inside, and the moon, the moon that night, and the soaphorn tree saw everything!

His voice was low: "I was very angry, I was a very proud person when I was young, I thought Ling'er had made an appointment with me but didn't come, I left in a huff, if I could have taken a look at the well at that time, maybe she would still be alive." โ€

"But Miss Ling'er said that you pushed her down, and she wanted to understand why this happened."

Ye Liang stared at Akiba tightly, this man's eyes were full of pain, but could he really be trusted? In Ye Quan's heart, Taoist priests are all cunning guys.

"Me? Why did she say that? Akiba was surprised.

"If Miss Ling'er was pushed from behind and fell into the well, she didn't see who pushed her, so she thought it was my senior brother ......"

Xiao Wu interjected on the side.

"Since you can't see who pushed herself, why is she sure that it was Akiba Michicho who did it?"

Zhao Nan asked.

Xiao Wu looked at Autumn Leaves, and Lao Jia pointed at Autumn Leaves and shouted: "Okay, okay, you are really tight-lipped and have hidden from me for twenty-two years, what am I in your heart?" A fool, isn't he?"

"Lao Jia, don't get excited, I really didn't mean to lie to you, but at that time, I was young at the time, and I was afraid of gossip, so I didn't dare to admit that Ling'er's lover was me."

Akiba lowered her head, looking guilty.

"No wonder you paid for the burial of your grandmother later, it turned out to be like this."

Lao Jia woke up like a dream and muttered to himself.

It turned out that after Ling'er's accident, Ling'er's grandmother told Lao Jia about Ling'er's various actions before leaving home, she thought that Ling'er had a secret lover, and she went to Zhongyingpan Village to meet that person.

Lao Jia repeatedly checked and did not find out who that person was, and then Ling'er committed suicide as soon as seven days passed. Akiba Daochang spent money to bury his grandmother, and at that time, everyone praised that although he was young but kind-hearted, he was a good person, and no one guessed that he was Ling'er's lover.

"I was young and arrogant at that time, I was the head of the big disciple, in the flattery of the brothers and sisters gradually lost themselves, I like Ling'er, she is pure like a spring in the mountains, but she is a country girl, I am a decent big disciple, I dare not let others know the relationship with her, so when I learned that Ling'er had an accident, I was very painful and didn't dare to say anything, and then after a few years of torture, I decided to give up the position of the head disciple and be an idle cloud and wild crane, which can be regarded as a punishment for myself."

Akiba's tone was indifferent, after more than twenty years, he was no longer the arrogant head disciple of the past.

"Oh, I understand why you are a big disciple but never care about things, in the past, I thought it was someone else who excluded you, but I saw that Master still relied on you very much, not like someone could squeeze you out and stand aside, it turned out that you gave up yourself, alas, why are you doing this, Senior Brother? If you torture yourself like this, Miss Ling'er won't come back from the dead. โ€

Xiao Wu said on the side.

"I hated myself for being cowardly and incompetent back then, I couldn't find the murderer of Ling'er, and I didn't even dare to say the relationship between us, and how much was my love for Ling'er at that time true and how much was false? If I really love Ling'er, I will look around when I can't wait for her, maybe I can find Ling'er in the well, and she won't die. At that time, I loved face, I thought I was a famous disciple, and I was afraid of Ling'er's identity as a village girl from the bottom of my heart, Ling'er treated me sincerely, but I didn't treat her sincerely, from this point of view, it was understandable that she thought I killed her. โ€

Hearing Qiu Ye say this, Lao Jia sighed with emotion.

A sixteen-year-old girl, pushed into the cold well, maybe Akiba came to that moment she was still breathing, and wanted to call for help, she heard the footsteps of her lover, maybe there was still a call, but helplessly listened to the footsteps away, what a desperate scene!
