Chapter Twenty-Nine: By the Bridge

However, the bridge is on the road, and the right and wrong do not cross the Lechuan River. There is no right or wrong in front of the Sansheng Stone, and Meng Po will be on the side of the Wangxiang platform.

A flower-blooming area on Huangquan Road is the end of the Lechuan River, and its final flow is to join the Nai River, and on the other side of the river, is the last stop of the underworld - the Soul Cliff.

A huge stone on the edge of the cliff is engraved with a huge "Six Paths of Reincarnation", which records that after death, people will be reincarnated in the "Six Paths". The six realms are the Heavenly Path, the Asura Path, the Humane Path, the Animal Path, the Hungry Ghost Path, and the Hell Path. Beings in the human world can enter the upper three realms because they have done more good karma and less bad karma, and if they do less good karma, they will enter the lower three realms and suffer a lot.

The road to the Soul Restoration Cliff is divided by the Lechuan River, only to see a bridge on the edge of the cliff, and there are 4 bridge-protecting beasts on the bridge, located on both sides. This is the Nai Ho Bridge!

If you want to cross the Lethe River, you must cross the Nai He Bridge, as long as you successfully pass through the Lethe River and board the Nai He Bridge, and walk safely from the bridge, you can reach the side of the bridge and enter the reincarnation.

Under the bridge, there are 6 circles that emit various colors of light, which are the six reincarnations, and the ghost will jump into which circle to reincarnate. The warm sunlight shimmered on the edge of the cliff, which contrasted sharply with the cold Lethe River on the other side of the bridge.

It is said that if you want to cross the Nai He Bridge and choose to be reincarnated, you must drink a cup of tea from a person named Meng Po by the bridge, which is Meng Po soup.

Meng Po soup is also called forgetful water, legend has it that after drinking, your love and hatred in this life, the people you care about in your heart, will be forgotten cleanly, even if you meet again in the next life, you will be like strangers, and you don't know each other...... Therefore, once the ghost drinks the Meng Po soup, it forgets the events of its previous life, and then it can be reincarnated as a human being, starting a new journey and a new life.

The four of them chased Ah Xian to the side of the bridge, only to see that she had already gone up to the bridge, and was about to rush straight to the ghost road.

"Ah Xian, don't go!"

Zitong shouted at her, Ah Xian put on her long hair that was already messy, stopped, and finally slowly turned around and said to a few people:

"Don't persuade me anymore, the pain in my heart, you won't understand, no matter what, I won't change my decision! I'm going to go to the ghost now, and I'm going to bring down all the people who have hurt me! ”

"But don't you have a little attachment to me?" Zitong asked sadly.

"Young Master Zitong, you are really good, since I stepped into your house, I know, you have never looked down on me, I am very grateful to you for teaching me everything with your heart, if I met you before Engong, maybe, I will change, but after that, I can no longer tolerate anyone in my heart, and they have selfishly and wantonly deprived me of my life, so that I will never have the opportunity to find my benefactor, I am unwilling! I must avenge this revenge! Master, we will see you in the next life! ”

After that, he turned around and was about to rush off the bridge.

"Okay, then let's see you in the next life......"

Zitong smiled sadly on his handsome and thin face, and he finally took a deep look at Ah Xian's back, and jumped off the bridge without saying anything.

"Don't!"

Seeing this, Jiu'er pounced violently, grabbed Zitong's hand, and prevented him from falling into the turbulent Lechuan River below.

"Why do you bother......

Xi Lichuan said faintly: "Many people choose not to drink Meng Po soup in order to see each other again in the next life and remember their favorite in this life, but then they have to jump into the Lechuan River and wait for thousands of years to be reincarnated."

But in a thousand years, you may see your favorite person walking on the bridge, but words can't be connected, you can see her, she can't see you.

In the millennium, you can only see her walking across the Nai He Bridge over and over again, drinking bowls and bowls of Meng Po soup, and hoping that she will not drink it, and afraid that she will not be able to forget the suffering of thousands of years in the river and the loneliness of waiting.

For thousands of years, you have to watch your favorite person walk across the bridge again and again in the icy river, reincarnate as a human being, and then have a marriage.

After a thousand years, if you can still remember her, you can reincarnate and look for her again. It's just that the vicissitudes of life may have long been wrong. Do you think it's worth it"?

Jiu'er listened, and was already crying:

"Zitong, don't, come up quickly, let's persuade Ah Xian together, maybe, maybe she will change her mind? Come up, okay? I'm going to run out of strength......" while crying, he grabbed Zitong's thin arm hard, and refused to let go.

All kinds of insects, snakes, ghosts and monsters in the Lechuan River were rolling under Zitong excitedly, and they knew that once Zitong fell into it, he would become one of them and would never get up again.

Ah Xian heard Jiu'er's cry behind him, and couldn't help but turn around after all: "Zitong young master, why do you bother me like this, hatred, I must ............"

As she was talking, suddenly, Ah Xian was stunned, and she suddenly saw Zitong's hanging sleeves revealing his thin little arms, and on it, a deep crescent-like curved scar came into view, which was a brand that haunted her soul......

"Help, help", the three-year-old girl grabbed the ancient vine on the edge of the cliff and shouted vigorously......

"Don't be afraid, little sister, I'll save you", the big boy leaned out most of his body and pulled the ancient vine hard.

"Ah, it hurts!" The sharp peaks of the rocks beside the dead vines carved a cruel crescent deep into the boy's forearm, and the blood kept gurgling and dripping down the corners of the girl's eyes, mixed with tears, leaving a deep mark on the girl's eyes.

"Big brother, I don't have the strength, you let it go."

"No, I won't let go, don't cry, it's not beautiful to cry again, save some effort to hold on! I'm counting one, two, three, let's work together, and I'm sure you can do it! ”

Finally, the girl was dragged up, but the boy fell down due to excessive force, and his life and death were uncertain......

"Zitong young master...... No, you're a good man?!! ”

Ah Xian pounced on it, stroked the long scar ......on Zitong's arm, and before he knew it, he had already burst into tears: "Engong, is it really you?" ”

"In the end, you still saw it......" Zitong smiled sadly.

"Why? I don't understand why you didn't tell me when there were so many opportunities for so many years! You know I've been looking for you! Ah Xian couldn't cry.

Zitong smiled and said: "Ah Xian, three years ago, the moment you first came to my house, I recognized you, hehe, it's the same as when I was a child, so beautiful, do you know how happy I am to see you?"

But how can I recognize you? Since I fell into the valley that day, my leg has been broken, and the doctor said that because I stayed for too long, I would only be lame after I took it. For so many years, I have always had low self-esteem, I don't want to walk, I don't want to see people, but I still don't regret the decision to save you back then.

Moreover, after my legs are broken, I am basically a wasted person, I don't want you to feel guilty, self-blame, sad, and even, disgusted with me after seeing me like this......"

"Why are you so stupid...... How could I be disgusted, do you know how long I've been looking for you......" Ah Xian cried.

"Later, I left, but I didn't expect that my father would actually send you down to me because he felt sorry for me, and sent you down to me. But seeing you so sad and angry, I couldn't help it.

You're right, after all, it's our family that owes you a life, then, let me pay back this life, I just hope you don't practice yourself, don't set foot on the ghost road, you can't go back there, be obedient, go and drink the soup, drink the Meng Po soup, the old dreams, and cut off the cause and effect. Reincarnate as a human being and live a good and happy life. I will always watch you in the Lethe River, bless you, and live forever. ”

Zitong said weakly that he could no longer support it.

Jiu'er also saw that she was about to lose her strength, and her delicate hands had already been worn out by the bridge, flowing down her wounds to Zitong's hands, dyeing Zitong's hands bright red.

"Girl, don't bother anymore, please let it go. Zitong is very grateful for everything you have done for me, this may be my fate, but thinking that I can often see my beloved girl in the next thousand years, Zitong has no regrets, you take care."

Zitong said, broke free of Jiu'er's hands with all his might, and fell heavily.

"Don't!!"

Jiu'er and Ah Xian cried and shouted, but Zitong had already fallen straight into the endless Lechuan River.

Ah Xian stood up with a mutter, his long hair was hanging down, tears were rolling through the corners of his eyes, and he was completely angry:

"Zitong, why are you so stupid? How could I dislike you, you have been the most important person in my life since I was a child, thank God, finally let me find you, this, that's enough. If you are there, what about heaven and earth? But now, how can I live alone? If you forget, I will never forsake you. Zitong, wait for me, I'm coming......"

After that, he also jumped into the Lechuan River at his feet, without a trace of hesitation......
