Chapter 42: The Bow of the Ghost

Night:

When Cui Yanhan arrived, she saw that the room was empty.

"Where did Wang Lin go?"

Lady Zangzhu smiled:

"Girl, don't panic, Wang Lingongzi, I'm going to see someone, a person full of obsession. The girl can wait here for good news, or she can go to a place to wait. ”

"Where?"

"Outside Donglei County, by the Hengyan River."

……

Hengyan River is the junction of Donglei County and the adjacent Luolei County, but it is rarely visited on weekdays.

First, because the terrain of this place is really not good, many people who want to cross the river from here will die mysteriously and be swallowed by the river.

Second, the county itself has opened up new mountain roads and river roads, so the place has gradually become desolate.

Wang Lin was in the dense forest by the Hengyan River, and there was no sound of birds chirping around, not even the sound of insects. There is only the sound of his own footsteps in his ears, step by step, revealing an indescribable loneliness and seclusion.

When you come to the river, the wide river looks extremely gentle, and you can't see that this place has swallowed countless lives because of the raging waves.

The inexplicable white mist of transpiration shrouded the entire Hengyan River with a layer of blur.

"Boom!"

At this time, it was already midnight, and in the silent night sky, where no stars could be seen, it was suddenly torn apart by flash thunder. In the slightly dazzling white light, a faint sound of wind chimes was heard in my ears.

followed the sound, but saw a person walking slowly not far away.

The visitor was dressed in a dark red robe, with long hair hanging down to his waist, and there was no special care. On the red oil-paper umbrella in his hand, a string of delicate bronze wind chimes hangs.

For a while, the cold moon was shining, the cold wind was blowing, and the people came slowly to Wang Lin's side.

It seemed to be a beautiful woman, with a face as beautiful as white jade, and a slender posture with light lotus arms, but a black mask as thin as a cicada's wings on her face covered the part above the tip of her nose.

"Childe, this is the Hengyan River, the snow has arrived, Childe should leave as soon as possible."

Under the soft whisper, he saw that the air really fell into the sky and was silver. A hint of cold feeling fell into the palm of the hand, just melting into a slight crystalline.

Wang Lin smiled leisurely: "The cold and snow have arrived, but it also responds to the scenery of the Hengyan River here." I don't see the stars, only the bright moon, isn't there three points of loneliness hidden in my heart? ”

The woman chuckled: "But a rough woman, how can she afford the word sir." However, if Childe is interested, he is willing to burn a handful of snow and cook a pot of sake for me. ”

Wang Lin nodded slightly, his palm condensed, and he flicked it in the snow.

Immediately, a handful of ice and snow appeared in the palm of his hand.

"Ice and snow are disguised, please ask Mr. to bring the wine jug container."

"I don't have a flask container." The woman said slowly.

"That's the case...... Wang Lin raised his fingertips, and on the big tree beside him, a palm-sized leaf was suddenly cut off.

The leaves are swept like a small bowl. But I saw a handful of ice and snow, slowly melting into a pool of dew among the leaves.

"Please, sir."

The woman took it and drank it all, and a trace of sadness in her eyes flashed away.

"The smoke is crossed, and the riverside is lonely. Midnight has come, why is Childe alone? ”

Wang Lin sat leisurely:

"Not alone, but alone. The smoke is smoky, and there are three points of blurred scenery. This meaning of loneliness also adds three points of warmth. ”

Seeing this, the woman also sat on the ground and slowly put away the paper umbrella in her hand:

"Childe is here, what is the so-called?"

"When you see someone, you have a fate." Wang Lin asked rhetorically: "What is the matter with the arrival of Mr. ”

The woman smiled lightly:

"I also see a person, but I don't know who I see."

"Maybe it's wrong, maybe he's not coming back. I gave it my all, but I just wanted to see him smile again. However, in the end, it is like a dream bubble, the mirror flowers and the moon, just like this snowy night sky, only the moon is bright, but the stars are scarce. ”

"The flowers bloom, and the years wither. Sir, you are persistent. Wang Lin's tone was indifferent.

"Persistence? So what is not attachment? The woman asked, "Can you be brisk by letting go of attachment?" However, sentient beings are ignorant, unattached, and attached. ”

As she spoke, the woman bent down slightly and held up a handful of river water:

"The river is cold, but the hearts of the people are warm. I have attachment, why not son? In my eyes, the child's hatred is as deep as the sea, the anger is churning, and if he is not careful, he is like the water at his fingertips, and in a moment, only a wet body remains. As far as the eye can see, it is empty. ”

Wang Lin chuckled, but his tone was more sad: "In this way, the world is suffering? ”

"Of course, there is suffering in the world." The woman's lips lightly opened: "Just as life and death are impermanent, you can't help yourself." ”

Wang Lin was silent for a moment: "Mr. still has to wait." ”

The woman gently wiped the water from her hand: "Still have to wait, wait for a result that may not be changed." ”

"Dare to ask sir, why do you kill people?" Wang Lin suddenly asked.

The woman didn't see the slightest change in her expression, and said softly, "Because I have a terminal illness." ”

"Killing people can cure my husband's chronic illness?"

"No, but...... It can calm my unwillingness and resentment a little. Every late at night, I can remember that in this cold river, there are people I am afraid I will never see again. ”

"But separation is suffering, loneliness is suffering, I have suffered for many years, but I don't want him to be like me. I only sigh, because of the person who died, after his death, his soul went to the bank of the Hengyan River and accompanied him on a journey. ”

Wang Lin said again:

"In that case, why didn't the gentleman kill me?"

"I don't know how to do it myself." The woman said softly, "You can get rid of the blood light of killing, it is your creation. But how many times this creation can be maintained, it all depends on the will of heaven. If you die, there will be an ethereal soul on the riverside. If you live, one day, if you want revenge, I will wait here. ”

Wang Lin shook his head:

"I came this time, not for revenge, nor for praying for mercy, but for one thing, one persistence, one understanding."

"Oh? What? ”

A square box appeared in front of the woman.

The square box is small and exquisite, and when it is slowly pushed open, there are six gold needles inside.

"This is ......" The woman's expression was finally touched, her eyes were full of disbelief, gently and carefully stroking the gold needle in the box, and unconsciously, a handful of hot tears flowed slowly.

"This cause and effect, Wang Lin is here to return." Wang Lin got up slowly, but bowed slightly: "Today, I talked with my husband, one for this perseverance and sorrow, the second for a business, and the third for a fate." ”

"Well......" The woman got up slowly: "Since Prince Wang Lin gave me this thing, please go to the Qianzhu boat to talk." ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw that in the middle of the Hengyan River, the thick fog collapsed.

In an instant, a big bamboo boat came slowly, and at this moment, the huge Hengyan River was actually a bright red, poignant and beautiful, but it was also incomparably clear.

Wang Lin said with a smile: "On the Santu River, inside the Qianzhu boat, Wang Lin has seen it, and the bow of the charming ship is not Yangjun." ”
