Chapter 280
"Drink!" Zhao Xinlei, who was still asleep in the last second, gasped, suddenly opened her beautiful eyes, looked at the top of the tent with out-of-focus eyes, and after a while, she lifted the quilt lightly and got out of bed, her face was as white as paper, and she was still drenched in a thin cold sweat, and listened in horror.
Despite her light movements, she woke up the person next to her pillow.
"Yanran?" Song Qingyuan sat up in confusion, caught a glimpse of his beloved wife's frightened expression in the moonlight, and said narrowly: "Did you have a nightmare?" Come back to bed and let me help you get rid of the nightmare. ”
Zhao Xinlei froze in the darkness and asked in a trembling voice, "Did you hear that voice?" ”
"What sound?" He was silent for a moment, "Hmm! Probably the wind ---"
She rubbed her cold arms and hugged herself, "No, it's the sound of chains dragging on the ground, kala, kala--- it's coming again, do you hear me?" ”
"I didn't hear anything." Song Qingyuan noticed that her tone was wrong, smiled, got out of bed and lit the candle, but was startled by her pale face: "You are in a cold sweat!" What the hell is going on? Is there something uncomfortable? Yanran ---"
"They came, but let them find out." She murmured in pain.
Song Qingyuan stared at her frightened expression, his throat also tightened, and he asked tremblingly, "Yanran, who did you say is here?" What was discovered? ”
She said with tears in her eyes, "The ghosts are here, and they have come to arrest me." ”
"What the hell?"
Zhao Xinlei bit her lower lip, which had lost her blood: "They are the ghosts under the seat of the City God, and they specialize in arresting souls who did not report to the underworld on time. ”
"What does that have to do with you?"
She is now a living person, no longer a ghost.
"Because ---" she covered her lips to keep herself from crying. "Because this is not my body in the first place, if it weren't for the help of the land lord and the land wife, so that I could borrow the corpse to resurrect my soul, we would never have been able to get together again, let alone become husband and wife."
His face turned pale: "It turns out that this is the truth you are trying to hide." ”
The land woman repeatedly confessed that she was not allowed to divulge this secret to anyone. Otherwise, if the City God finds out, it will still be difficult to escape the fate of falling into reincarnation, so I don't dare to confess to you---"
Song Qingyuan fell into the anger of self-blame.
"It's all my fault! It's me who keeps forcing you to admit it, is it because of this reason that the matter will be exposed? ”
"Even if the prince doesn't say it, Lord Chenghuang will find out the truth sooner or later, the real Jingning County Lord is dead, but there is still a Zhao Xinlei in the world, this kind of thing can't be hidden, but I didn't expect this day to come so soon, and the time to come is still coming." She said in a choked voice.
He clenched his arms and wrapped her in his arms, "No, no one can take you away!" ”
"Xianggong, how can I be willing to ---" Zhao Xinlei stiffened all over, and screamed with a pale face, "That voice is getting closer and closer, they are coming---"
"I don't care who sent you, no one wants to take my wife, do you hear?" Song Qingyuan shouted into the air.
Kala, kala--- the sound of chains dragging on the ground approached.
Song Qingyuan tightened his arms, thinking that this would save her.
"Go away! I won't let go, whoever dares to touch my wife's cold hair, I'll find whoever to fight hard. ”
"Xianggong." Zhao Xinlei's tears kept flowing, and she put her cheek on his chest, greedy for the warmth of the last moment.
Without warning, she closed her eyelids as if she was asleep, her delicate body softened, and she collapsed in Song Qingyuan's arms, and her nose was out of breath.
"Yanran?" He looked down at her in horror and shook her vigorously, "Yanran, wake up!" You said you wouldn't leave me, you can't do this to me---"
His cry did not wake up the man who was getting cold in his arms.
"Xianggong, I'm here." The soft voice sobbed.
Song Qingyuan looked at the place where he came from, leaving Yan Ran of Zhao Xinlei's body, and his tears were sad, and his hands and feet were shackled and handcuffed by the ghost next to him.
"Yanran!" The blood in his body seemed to be frozen, and he gently put down the corpse in his arms and opened his arms to her: "What can I do to save you?" Tell me ---"
She sighed helplessly: "Xianggong, our fate is over, and no one can save me." ”
"Nope! I don't believe it! Song Qingyuan turned to the grim-looking ghost, "Please raise your noble hand and return the wife who is playing with me." ”
The ghost cha glanced at each other, and said with a hideous face: "On the order of the city god, I will come to arrest the fleeing souls and go back, there must be no mistake, and anyone's request will be invalid!" ”
"The hour is coming, and it's time for me to go back to my life." Another ghost cha said.
Song Qingyuan shouted, "Wait a minute! You can't just break up our husband and wife---"
"Xianggong, it's useless, you have to take good care of yourself, you can't stay together in this life, but I hope that --- next life" Before the words were finished, Yanran couldn't cry.
Song Qingyuan was so grief-stricken that even his throat was hoarse.
"I don't want the next life, I just want to be able to hold on to this life and this life, why do you have to break us up, I don't accept ---"
When she heard this, her heart was broken.
"The hour has come, and Lord Chenghuang is still waiting for us to go back!" The ghost mission enforces the law very strictly, and there is no longer any delay.
Yan Ran shook a string of tears, "Xianggong ---"
"Wait!" An old man's cry came from outside the sky.
The land lord and the land wife arrived together, and as soon as they saw the situation at the scene, they knew that the east window incident had occurred and the general trend had gone.
"Yanran lived up to the kindness of the land lord and the land wife, and finally let the city god find out." Yan Ran smiled sadly, and there was no trace of backlash or resistance to the punishment she was about to receive.
"Land lord, land wife, please return Yanran to me, I will kowtow to you---" He kowtowed to the two of them reverently, kowtowing until his forehead was bruised.
Yan Ran persuaded distressedly: "Xianggong, don't be like this." ”
"Lady, what do you think should be done?" The land lord threw the problem back to the land wife.
The land lady looked distressed: "Dad is angry this time, I think it's useless to plead, let's find a way to hold Yanran first, don't let her be punished too heavily." ”
"Well, that's all there is to it." The land lord groaned, "Okay, Song Qingyuan, don't kowtow anymore, although I and the land lady have the heart to help you, but after all, our ability is limited." ”
Song Qingyuan sat down in despair, "Even you can't save Yanran---"
"Xianggong, don't blame them, just blame us for not having a chance in this life, but ask for a continuation in the next life." Yan Ran endured the pain and comforted softly. "You must come to me in the next life, I will wait for you ---"
"Yanran ---" In the blink of an eye, she and the ghost disappeared without a trace, and Song Qingyuan stretched out his arm to grab her, but only caught a cloud of air.
The land lady was sad and shed tears, "A good loving couple was broken up alive." ”
"Alas, they didn't have a marriage in this life, and we insisted on acting as the old man and helping them to pull the red line, it is not surprising that there will be such a result, but ---"
She said angrily, "Just, ? Old man, don't just say half of your words, and be appetizing. ”
The land lord murmured in the ears of the land wife, and she turned from sadness to joy when she heard it.
"You mean really?"
"Of course it's true, I'm going to peek at the marriage book that is too old, it can't be fake." He patted his chest in reassurance.
"That's going to be easy." The land was overjoyed, and looked at the man who had lost his soul, "Song Qingyuan, don't be sad first, you have no chance to be together in this life, but in the next life, you and Yanran still have a marriage, and you must grasp it well then." ”
Song Qingyuan raised his head blankly, "Next life?" ”
How can he get through such a long time?
"Yes, that's the marriage that really belongs to you, don't miss it." The land lady earnestly advised.
He barely pulled himself together, "Thank you, no matter how many years, I'll wait." ”
"Yes, that's the kind of determination." The land lord nodded with satisfaction, "I believe that as long as you can have a heart, even the Jade Emperor will be moved by your infatuation and let your husband and wife get together as soon as possible." ”
"I'm going to wait until we meet again." No matter how many lives pass, this New Year will never change, and he will wait until that day comes.
