Chapter 18: The Mist
Ji Yao snatched the door out, but A-Qing was still red-eyed, chasing Ji Yao like crazy.
"Ah Qing, I'm Ji Yao!" Ji Yao shouted loudly, and the surroundings were quiet, and no one seemed to hear Ji Yao's shout.
"Is there anyone, is there anyone?" Ji Yao knocked on the doors of other rooms while running, and in a panic, Ji Yao ran to the lobby on the first floor of the hotel. Along the way, there were no doors.
Behind him, Ah Qing chased after him, Ji Yao didn't think much about it, and rushed out of the hotel directly.
The cool breeze in the night was blowing, and Ji Yao was only wearing thin pajamas. Panicked, she didn't notice the abnormal silence around her, and the thick fog around her, she plunged into the fog.
The road in front of her was blurry, and she slowed down.
Quiet, abnormally still.
Ji Yao rubbed her shoulders, and the cold air was drilling into her body for a while, but she couldn't see anything around clearly. Ah Qing didn't seem to chase after him, and there was no movement behind him.
I don't know how long I was blind in the thick fog, but Ji Yao finally saw some light in front of her. Ji Yao hurriedly ran towards the light, where there is light, there are people.
The closer you get to the light source, the fog around you thins out.
An antique house appeared in front of her, and Ji Yao looked at the house in front of her, and felt a chill in her heart.
The house in front of her was the one she had seen the man in costume come out of it before. A faint light emanated from the room.
Ji Yao turned around and looked around, and the familiar small courtyard was in front of her.
"Is there anyone?" Ji Yao called softly into the room.
Squeak - the door is gently pushed open.
Seeing Ji Yao in front of him, the man in ancient costume was surprised, but soon became indifferent.
"It's you. He looked at Ji Yao with a smile.
"It's you!" Ji Yao was very happy to see the man in ancient costume, at least he knew him, but he didn't even know what people were called.
"Hehe, why are you wearing so little, come in and sit, it's warmer inside than outside. The man in costume turned sideways and invited Ji Yao into the house.
"Sorry to bother you again. Ji Yao hesitated, but still entered the house, it was too cold outside.
The man in ancient costume intimately poured a cup of hot water for Ji Yao, and Ji Yao held it on his chest before he eased up slightly. Only then did she realize that the light in the room was actually a candle.
"It's so late, why are you out there alone. The man in ancient costume sat opposite Ji Yao and asked softly.
"I couldn't sleep at night, so I came out to breathe, but it was foggy, and I got lost in the fog. Ji Yao felt that it was better not to tell others about Aqing.
"I see. The man in costume didn't ask much, "I can't sleep at night, get up and read a book." ”
"My name is Ji Yao, what about you?" Ji Yao asked as she took a sip of hot water and looked up.
"Mu Lianghan. ”
"Do you live in this house?" For some reason, Ji Yao was full of curiosity about the person in front of her.
"Well, I've always lived here. ”
"Ah, I see that the crew has left early, aren't you leaving?"
"Crew, what crew?" Mu Lianghan looked at Ji Yao puzzled.
"*" crew, aren't you their actor?" Is it wrong, Ji Yao looked at Mu Lianghan in ancient costume, saying that it was night, why was he still wearing this, although he looked good in this outfit, he didn't have to be reluctant to take it off.
"I don't know anything about *, I've always lived here. ”
"What, have been living here, oh, this house is yours. Ji Yao thought about it, there are some people who like to buy old mansions to live in, and it seems that Mu Lianghan is this kind of person.
"It's not mine, I'm just watching. Mu Lianghan thought of the past, and his eyes were a little downcast.
Ji Yao watched Mu Lianghan's expression change, he seemed to have said something that shouldn't have been said, it wasn't his, he was just guarding this house.
"I'm sorry, this house has been around for some years, aren't you afraid of living alone?" Ji Yao hurriedly changed the subject.
"It's okay, it's good to get used to it, have you heard the story of this house?" Raising his eyes, Mu Lianghan looked at Ji Yao.
"I know a little, I heard that it is a general's wife. "Before coming, Ji Yao had checked the information and had seen it briefly.
"Hehe, let me tell you the story of this house. ”
This house was built for a woman, but it was not the general's wife, but the general's favorite woman (lover, Ji Yao thought). She is the general's childhood sweetheart's lover, and she made a private decision for life before she had the general's wife, but unfortunately for various reasons, the general could not marry the woman he loved, and married the daughter of the minister of the court, the general's wife was domineering, and the general was afraid that his beloved would be hurt, so he hid her in the deep mountains that he had to pass through to fight. The general has been fighting abroad all year round, but every time he returns, he will come here to meet the woman he loves.
The good times didn't last long, this secret still let the general's wife know, taking advantage of the general's absence, the general's wife rushed in with a group of people, arrested the woman, and let her subordinates rape her, the general's wife wanted to completely cut off the general's thoughts, and also let the woman break the general's thoughts, but the woman was humiliated and died.
The general's wife did not leave immediately, she rummaged through the house for five days and five nights, and turned the house upside down, but found nothing. What the general's wife is looking for is a property that the general gave to his beloved-Tatsuzu. This pearl fell from the sky and kept it in the palace, and later it was given to the general, who in turn gave it to his beloved.
It is said that this bead has divine power and can satisfy people's desires, and the general's wife cannot give it up, so she has not destroyed this house, but ordered people to guard this house until they find this pearl. And when the general learned of this, he died in a battle. In this way, these two people can be regarded as meeting again, and the bead is said to be still in this house, but it is a pity that no one has a fate to find it......
"Alas. After listening to Mu Lianghan's story, Ji Yao sighed, people who have loved each other since ancient times have always been difficult to get together, because of their identities and the problems between the portals, they have either gone through difficulties or have not achieved good results.
"Hehe, don't be sad, it's a hundred years ago, but fortunately, the house built by the general for his beloved is still there. Mu Lianghan saw that Ji Yao's face was full of loneliness and comforted.
"Well, I hope they can be together again after they are reincarnated. ”
"Oh, you also believe in reincarnation. Mu Lianghan asked Ji Yao.
"If you believe in this, you will have it, and if you don't believe it, I hope that the general and his beloved can be together. ”
"Hehe, that's true. Mu Lianghan picked up the teapot and poured water for Ji Yao.
Yikes-
A scream broke the peace, and outside the door, a woman's scream was heard.
"You sit, I'll go out and have a look. Mu Lianghan got up and walked out, and Ji Yao watched him go out nervously. The scream sounded horrible, so it was better that nothing had happened.
