Chapter 7: Return to Ling'an (2)
Lu Gusong sat in front of the 10,000-person monument, ignoring the dust on the ground staining his pants, and just talked to himself. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info before, Lu Gusong could only talk about his recent situation in a hurry, but today Lu Gusong seems to have endless words. When talking about Wang Qi dying in front of his eyes, Lu Gusong's eyes were a little red; when he said that he had escaped death several times, Lu Gusong couldn't help but pat his chest; when he talked about himself and Shen Lu exchanging heartfelt complaints, the corners of Lu Gusong's mouth couldn't help but raise a smile; when he talked about the somewhat mysterious demon hunter, Lu Gusong showed a melancholy look again.
"Grandpa, I'll definitely find out the cause of that disaster. Lu Gusong said firmly to the Ten Thousand Monuments, but the terrifying look he saw in his dream appeared in his mind again.
As soon as he thought of that look, Lu Gusong's body was agitated, and as he learned more about spiritual power, the more he realized the horror of that look. Although he was determined, he didn't know how strong he had to be to face that look? Lu Gusong felt a little lost again.
"Rustle. Just when Lu Gusong was deeply immersed in his thoughts and was a little distracted, a light footstep came from beside him, interrupting Lu Gusong's thoughts.
Lu Gusong turned his head, and the first thing that caught his eye was a pair of white canvas shoes, stepping on the ashes after the burning of the dark coin, but it was not contaminated with a trace of dust. Lu Gusong looked all the way, a short white skirt just covered the knees, no more, no less, revealing a pair of slender and smooth calves. The sky blue shirt should have been ironed shortly now, without a single wrinkle, and the sleeves were rolled up to the elbows. Her short gray shawl hair was neatly combed, and the bangs on her forehead were combed at the sides, revealing her brown eyes. This is a girl with delicate facial features, but there is no expression on her face.
Is she also here to worship her relatives? But why is there no emotion in her eyes? Lu Gusong thought of it, and got up and gave way to the side.
The girl didn't even look at Lu Gusong, she went straight to the 10,000-person monument, and she didn't speak, just kept staring at a certain name on the monument.
There was a person standing next to him, and it was inconvenient for Lu Gusong to talk to his grandfather anymore, and he had already said a lot, so the front of the 10,000-person monument suddenly quieted down, only the breeze of early spring blew the meager clothes of the boys and girls.
"That, are you also an old Ling'an person?" Lu Gusong felt a little uncomfortable, so he opened his mouth to break the silence. I have never met a few old people in Ling'an before, but today I met three at once, and they are all as old as himself, to be honest, Lu Gusong also wants to meet this girl.
When the girl heard Lu Gusong's voice, she turned her head sharply and looked at Lu Gusong coldly.
Lu Gusong was startled by the girl's cold eyes and took half a step back. "It's bad, she treats me as a bad person!" Lu Gusong secretly said in his heart that it was not good, and hurriedly explained: "Don't get me wrong, I don't want to talk to me, I just rarely meet people here, so I want to get to know you......" As soon as the words came out, Lu Gusong had an urge to fan himself, and it was okay if he didn't say it, but when he said it, he made himself more like a hooligan who casually accosted girls. There's no way, I'm really not good at getting along with girls, even if I'm with Shen Lu, I'm stupid, and I don't have to complain about Shen Lu.
The girl looked at Lu Gusong with a tangled look, and didn't speak, just withdrew her cold gaze and turned to leave.
"......" Lu Gusong was a little speechless, but it was not good to entangle it again, so he had to sigh helplessly.
Looking around again, Lu Gusong suddenly found that he had forgotten the time by talking to himself just now, but now the sky had darkened, and there were no more people around.
"It's not good, I haven't done what Brother Xia asked me to do yet. Lu Gusong secretly said that it was not good, bowed to the 10,000-person monument and said: "Grandpa, I still have something to do, I can't accompany you today, I will come back to see you next year." Then he turned and left.
Modern people are really strange, when they are alive, they are divided into three, six, nine and so on, and when they die, they still have to be divided into rich and poor. Shiligang was divided into four areas, and the A area just now was a civilian area, and a bunch of tombstones were crowded together, and there were many worshippers who couldn't even find a place to stay. In the distance, Zone D is the luxury area, the tombstones are more refined, and the space is larger, of course, the price is not comparable to Area A. Lu Gusong almost passed through the entire Shiligang before coming to Area D.
Lu Gusong found the tombstone in the sixth column of the fourth row of the D area, and with the faint glow of the sky, Lu Gusong could barely see the words "The Tomb of the Beloved Daughter Jiang Yiting" engraved on the stele, and the incense burner in front of the tomb still had a piece of incense left, and flowers and fruits were placed around, and the worshippers should have left not long ago. Judging from the year of birth and death on the stele, the woman in the tomb is about the same age as Xia Feixue, and it should be the stele erected by the girl's parents, but what makes Lu Gusong care is that the girl's death time is three months ago, which should be shortly before Xia Feixue was imprisoned.
"Does this have anything to do with Brother Xia's imprisonment?" Lu Gusong took out an incense stick while guessing, lit it and inserted it into the incense burner that was still warm, and bowed respectfully to the tombstone three times: "Miss Jiang, I am a friend of Brother Xia Feixue. Brother Xia can't come because of something, so please ask me to come to you on his behalf to give you incense, and say that your revenge Brother Xia has already helped you avenge it!" After speaking, Lu Gusong raised his head and saw the beautiful face of the young woman smiling in the black and white photo on the tombstone, Lu Gusong couldn't help but sigh: Xia Feixue cares about this woman so much, the relationship between the two must be extraordinary. It's a pity that now the two of them are in prison, and the other is separated by yin and yang, and sometimes fate likes to play tricks on people.
After the thing was done, seeing that the sky was getting darker, Lu Gusong also decided to go back, but as soon as he turned around, he saw a dark figure standing there not far away, even though Lu Gusong's mind was already so calm, he was still taken aback. The black shadow walked slowly towards the landing lone pine, making a "rustling" footsteps.
"You...... Follow me?" a slightly hoarse voice asked Lu Gusong coldly. The black shadow appeared in the shadows, the same girl she had met in front of the monument before.
"No, no, I, I'm just entrusted by someone to come to the pillar incense. Somehow, when he saw this girl, Lu Gusong was a little nervous, and he even stammered when he spoke.
The girl's gaze crossed Lu Gusong, and glanced at the incense burner that was still smoking in front of the tombstone behind Lu Gusong, and the hostility in her eyes gradually disappeared. She retracted her gaze, stopped staying, and walked past Lu Gusong.
"Whew!" Lu Gusong quietly breathed a sigh of relief, this girl put more pressure on Lu Gusong than the demon.
"Woo woo woo ......" Just as Lu Gusong was about to leave, a small and pitiful voice came from the front, and a fluffy little guy came out of the shadows, it turned out to be a puppy. The yellow-haired puppy was no bigger than two fists, dirty, and limping when he walked, looking very weak.
However, if you look closely, although the dog is dirty, the hair on its whole body is still neatly combed, and the collar around its neck also shows that it is not a wild dog, it should have been forgotten here by its owner.
"Could it be the girl just now?" Lu Gusong hurriedly picked up the puppy, turned around and called, "Girl, is this puppy yours?"
The girl had not gone far when she heard her steps stop, but she did not turn around, nor did she answer immediately. After a while, until the sky was completely dark, and the darkness drowned out the girl's figure, an indifferent voice came from the shadows: "I don't want it, if you want to, keep it, if you don't want to, throw it away!" After speaking, the girl left without looking back, leaving only the "rustling" footsteps in the darkness.
"This ......" Hearing the girl's ruthless answer, Lu Gusong was a little speechless. The puppy in his arms seemed to understand the owner's words, stopped his struggling body, and trembled in Lu Gusong's arms, only the occasional "woo" whimper told the sadness in its heart.
