30
**Yesterday evening
After Pei Jiangzhi was startled by a strange female ghost in his dream, he woke up but couldn't sleep anymore.
As night fell, he confirmed that Xu Yun next to him was asleep, so he simply put on his clothes and walked out of the tent directly. In the outer ring of the campfire, he lay straight on the grass, his arms slightly bent behind his head.
Pei Jiangzhi looked at the stars with his eyes intent.
After thinking about it, he still felt that if there was something about Magatama, he had to call his old man and ask about it. Otherwise, how can he find a way to recover Magatama?
He really doubted more and more that the ancestor of the Pei family had stolen the treasure of the town and country back then. If that's the case, he really doesn't have the face to stay here and find some way to recover.
Stolen things have to be returned, don't they? In this way, it is not impossible to let Magatama fend for itself.
... If you are not afraid of being beaten to death by your own old man.
Pei Jiangzhi stretched out his hand and dragged a dog's tail grass on the grass next to him, he held the second half of the dog's tail grass in his mouth, and decided to call his old man to ask what happened to Pei's ancestors back then.
An hour later.
Pei Jiangzhi's face was a little unpleasant.
He turned off the phone screen and let out a long breath of depression in his chest.
The truth is far more tragic and more tragic than he figured out... Regretful.
**
Thoughts flowed back to the present, and after Pei Jiangzhi finished saying that, he stretched out his claws and was about to grab Pei Jiangzhi's hand suddenly. Immediately afterwards, as if the girl had been hit by something, she turned her head little by little and looked at Pei Jiangzhi.
"The truth?"
She suddenly heard a big joke, "The truth is that Pei Ling took advantage of my love and stole the treasure of my Anli Kingdom!" My country is ruined, and I have to be deceived by him! β
After speaking, a sweet fragrant wind blew, and the girl quickly floated in front of Pei Jiangzhi, blocking his way.
"Want to go?" The girl sneered, "It's not that easy! β
Her beautiful face became more and more distorted at this moment, and her voice was no longer gentle and beautiful before, replaced by a sharp and piercing roar, "You, all those surnamed Pei, are negative people!" β
Pei Jiangzhi's heart was beating violently, he knew that the girl in front of him seemed to have lost her mind at present, and there was no way to talk to her normally.
Last night, my father's voice fluttered in my ears: What you met should be the princess of Angasa back then, the soul of An Rou. She was very angry before she died, and even though thousands of years had passed and her body had decayed, her resentment had grown stronger with time.
Before you left, I asked Xu Yu to fill your backpack with a long lantern. No matter what kind of evil spirit, as long as this lamp is lit, it will be extinguished immediately.
Pei Jiangzhi was not careful, and his left arm was grabbed fiercely by An Rou, leaving five bright red and terrifying scratches. He was stunned, and hurriedly cheered up his spirit to dodge left and right to An Rou.
He tried to throw the last weight at An Rou: "Magatama was actually stolen by Azinan!" It was Pei Ling who he blamed! β
Pei Jiangzhi couldn't bear to let An Rou, who was also a victim before, be wiped out like this, he wanted to do his best to at least explain a thing or two for Pei Ling back then.
But if An Rou still fell into a state of madness, he had to use the long light in order to protect himself.
Because An Rou can already hurt him.
After An Rou listened to Pei Jiangzhi's last sentence, she was slightly stunned, and the hand that was about to pinch Pei Jiangzhi's neck immediately paused in front of him.
An Rou's face showed a rare look of confusion, "What...?" Really? β
She shook her head, as if to comfort herself again, "Azinan is so good to me, how could he do such a thing..."
Pei Jiangzhi keenly caught the confusion in her eyes, and he immediately said: "That's right, it was Aqinan who stole the magatama of Angasa Kingdom." β
An Rou looked at Pei Jiangzhi in confusion, as if to say: How do you know about Acinan?
Pei Jiangzhi said: "If you kill me, then you will never know the truth." β
Looking at An Rou's expression of slowly relaxing, Pei Jiangzhi breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
It seems that my father was right, and people who were very resentful and unwilling to enter reincarnation after death would linger on the last land where they lived. An Rou was originally going to go south with Pei Ling, but she was seriously ill for unknown reasons halfway, which slowed down the process of Pei's lineage.
An Rou, who has been looking for a famous doctor but can't be treated, is getting more and more serious. The theft of Magatama and the destruction of Angasa Province were the last straw that broke the camel's back.
Since then, An Rou has been seriously ill and bedridden. In order to take care of her, Pei Ling was willing to stay where she was and gave up moving south with the family.
My father said that the souls that remain in the world are often extremely simple-minded, and they are also the most uncertain. What they miss most is what they resent the most when they are dying.
This time, the bet was right.
**
An Rou's face was replaced with a lonely look, and she was much calmer than before.
There was confusion in her eyes: "Back then, when I was seriously ill and dying, Chun Ying told me that the hook jade was sent by Pei Ling to steal it when we were married. β
Then, she raised her eyebrows again, and said seriously and sincerely: "Chunying, my personal maid, you know, right? β
Xu Yun, who had been hiding behind Pei Jiangzhi, poked his head out and was shocked by An Rou's pear blossom rain and Chu Chu's pitiful face. The eyes are three points naΓ―ve, and seven points are confused. It's like a fairy in the sky who strayed into the world.
He scratched his head, this little princess was really beautiful when she was normal.
Pei Jiangzhi didn't notice An Rou's unconscious demeanor, he stared at An Rou's slowly withdrawn nails, and said quietly: "I know." β
As he spoke, he found a rock nearby and sat down.
He smiled at An Rou, "I'm sorry, I've been standing for a long time, and I'm a little tired." His other hand behind his back gestured frantically to Xu Yun.
Pei Jiangzhi's left hand, which had just been scratched by An Rou, drew a long strip behind his back, and Xu Yun immediately understood.
After thousands of years, An Rou seemed to have finally found someone to complain about at this moment, and she said sadly: "There were many people who asked to marry me back then, and I didn't look down on them. β
"Until Pei Ling came. As if by magic, he gave me a flower that I had never seen before. β
As she spoke, An Rou "giggled" and picked up a Luo Zhilan that can be seen everywhere here.
"Look, it's such a little flower that has captured my heart."
Pei Jiangzhi and Xu Yun glanced at each other. Sure enough, it is a soul, moody, cloudy and uncertain.
Here, Xu Yun had already taken out the voice recorder, and he quietly turned on the switch of the voice recorder.
Pei Jiangzhi swept Xu Yun's movements with his peripheral vision, and gave Xu Yun a slight thumbs up, giving Xu Yun a thumbs up. Pei Jiangzhi is actually a little worried, he doesn't know if these modern electronic products can capture some... The voice of the spirit, but whether it works or not, you still have to give it a try.
An Rou didn't notice the small movements of the two of them at all, she was completely immersed in her own world at the moment. An Rou spun around in place, and the moon-white skirt on her body was in the shape of a flower, almost transparent in the daylight.
She pinned the flower in her hand to her sideburns and started talking again: "How did you know about Azina?" β
Before Pei Jiangzhi could answer, An Rou replied to herself: "Aqinan grew up with me since he was a child, and he is the most brave and warlike guard in our Angasa country. I've always thought of him as an older brother, but... One day he even said he liked me and that he wanted to marry me. β
An Rou chuckled, "But I don't like him at all, how can I marry him." β
"I rejected him, pretending not to see the loss in his eyes."
"I thought we could still be the same as before, no matter where I went or what danger I encountered, Azinan would be the first to show up to protect me."
An Rou had a look of loneliness in her eyes, "It's a pity that I haven't seen him in the palace since I rejected him." β
"Since then, he's gone."
An Rou didn't have the slightest logic to speak, and she said wherever she wanted.
The sun breeze blows, and the grass and trees in the forest sway one after another, making a rustling sound. An Rou looked up at the daylight.
Pei Jiangzhi also followed her line of sight and looked at the sky, only seeing a blue sky and white clouds, and did not find anything special.
An Rou didn't know what she thought of at this time, she approached Pei Jiangzhi and took a few steps forward.
"I know what you're here for." She chuckled, "Your Pei's Magata, are you about to lose your aura?" β
Pei Jiangzhi said quietly: "Yes." β
He asked, "This... Is it related to you? β
An Rou curled the corners of her mouth mockingly, "Relevant, of course relevant." β
"My resentment has been cursing that piece of jade and your Pei clan for thousands of years."
Pei Jiangzhi was shocked, his heart was like a monstrous wave rolling by, he jumped up from the stone suddenly, "What did you do?" β
Xu Yun was also taken aback, his eyes widened like copper bells, and he couldn't help but ask in unison with Pei Jiangzhi:
"Why!"
An Rou didn't seem to hear the surprised questions of the two, she continued to take care of herself: "I cursed it in the name of the last princess of Angasa Kingdom, but unfortunately, I don't know whether to say that your Pei clan is lucky, or if the power of Magatama is too strong, so that for thousands of years, my resentment has not worked until today." β
"You Pei Clan must not be able to hold it, right? Otherwise, how would you have found here. β
Pei Jiang didn't care about the huge waves in his heart, he saw that An Rou was about to fall into a state of madness again, and hurriedly said, "Is it okay to talk about another topic?" I'm going to tell you a little bit of what I knew. β
An Rou's gaze slowly fell on Pei Jiangzhi, looking at the face that was so similar to the person she once loved, she looked unpredictable, "Said." β
"Don't you know where Aqinan went after being rejected by you back then?"
Pei Jiangzhi paused, and sat back in his place, "After he took it out of the palace, he has been living in the dense forest east of the palace. At the same time, he is secretly plotting how to steal Magatama. β
An Rou tilted her head, "You liar!" Azinan has always been loyal to me and to our Ankasa country, how could he do such a thing! β
As she spoke, she grabbed Pei Jiangzhi's collar, "Say!" Who taught you these lies! β
