Chapter VIII Contracts

Phantom Wu lost his temper indiscriminately, and when he calmed down, he felt annoyed, and he didn't know what was wrong, as soon as he saw the master's stunned look, and when he heard Luo Zhao's name, he would not be calm. She thumped her head and went into the room, where she heard the coughing in the bedroom had stopped, and she was lying on the edge of the table, already asleep, with a warm medicine jar at her feet.

Phantom Wu looked at the young man's quiet sleeping face, and his heart slowly calmed down. took a coat, draped it on Changjue's body, gently took the pu fan in the young man's hand, and slowly fanned the fire.

Sleepless nights.

Three days later, Phantom Wu was called to Xu Zhilan's side: "Ah Wu girl, I have something I want to ask you for." ”

Phantom Wu was puzzled: "Madame might as well say it directly." ”

Xu Zhilan smiled gently: "I heard Changjue say, last time it was a girl who helped me, so I had the money to see the doctor," Xu Zhilan's voice was weak, and her health was even worse, "You and your master are both good people, I want to entrust Changjue to you." ”

"Me?" Phantom pointed to herself, a little surprised.

"Listen to me, girl, my time is short, and when I go, there will be only one man left, and I can't bear to see him like this. After Zhilan finished speaking, she coughed in a low voice, and Phantom Wu hurriedly handed over the water. Zhilan took it, slowly stopped coughing, and said, "I know, this matter is also embarrassing for Miss Awu, but I really can't do it." I'm also selfish, I think the girl and the husband are not ordinary people, and they can be safe even if they follow for a long time. Just let Changjue follow the girl and be a little servant. ”

"Madame, do you mean to let Changjue sell herself to me?" Phantom Wu was a little incredulous.

Xu Zhilan smiled: "You can't eat and live with the girl for nothing," the sick and weak woman suddenly showed a little cunning, "My son is very capable." ”

This tone is quite like saying that if you don't accept it, you will lose a lot.

Seeing Xu Zhilan's sudden bloom, Phantom Wu was a little stunned, and then regretful.

Fate is actually very cruel to her, waiting for a lifetime, finally her son grows up, but God wants to take her life. But even so, she still smiled bravely, quite freely.

Walking out of the house, the sun was sinking in the west, and the earth was dyed with a warm yellow, like a phantely veil.

Hui Mingchang is never there. After going around to the back of the house, Phantom Wu saw Changjue, holding a stoneware bowl in his hand, squatting on the ground, surrounded by three or two kittens at his feet, one of which was naughty, lying on Changjue's shoulder.

Phantom Wu looked at it, didn't step forward, only leaned against the wall, quite like a scoundrel who peeked at a woman from a good family.

In the afterglow of the sunset, the boy gently stroked the kitten at his feet, and the well-fed cat made a "purr" sound, some licked the hair, some wagged their tails, and some jumped up and down on the boy's body, and gently swept the boy's good-looking side face with their tails. The young man had a gentle face and a rare smile on his face.

Phantom touched his chin on the side, huh...... Very eye-catching.

After a while, the young man got up, gently picked up the cat on his body and put it down, turned around and looked back, just looking at the woman leaning against the wall and squinting.

"Ah Wu, why are you here?" Chang Jue has already called this name quite smoothly in the past few days.

"Xiao Jue," Phantom Wu had a bad taste attack, and he gasped loudly in his speech, "Your mother sold you to me." ”

Changjue's eyes widened, and his expression was the same as that of the surprised cat. Seeing this expression, Phantom Wu felt that he must not have been so surprised just now, and silently gave himself a thumbs up in his heart.

"Your mother said that the one hundred taels will not be repaid, so let you work for me to pay off the debt. After speaking, Phantom Wu bent his waist slightly, and looked at the elder absolutely.

"But I, I still have to take care of my mother. Changjue's face was calm, but his eyes were slightly shining.

Phantom Wu pretended not to know, pinching his chin: "It's better to do this, you swear by me with a high five, even if we make a contract, you don't have to follow me immediately, you can continue to take care of your mother, how about it?"

Chang Jue thought about it and nodded in response.

Seeing that he agreed, Phantom Wu stretched out his hand, Chang Jue also stretched out his hand, and when the two palms met, Phantom Wu gently closed his eyes, and saw a faint light overflowing between the two palms, and then disappeared in an instant.

When he withdrew his hand, he saw a light blue butterfly outline in the palm of his right hand, and in a blink of an eye, it was hidden in his palm.

"What is this?"

"This is my logo, and by putting this logo on it, it proves that you are my person. With a smile in his eyes, Phantom stretched out his palm, and between them was a flame-shaped mark: "This is your sign." This seal cannot be erased unless one of us dies. Phantom Wu withdrew his hand, "When we think of the other party, or the other party is in danger, the mark will appear, and the depth will change according to the condition of life, for example, when I am about to die, the mark will become shallow until it disappears." We can use this mark to judge whether the other party is in good condition or not, which is convenient for you...... Protect me. ”

When Chang Jue heard this, his expression became solemn, and he silently tightened his palms and nodded vigorously.

With a teachable expression, Phantom Wu stretched his waist and left.

What Phantom Wu didn't say was that this kind of contract was not only used in the demon world, not only for the master-servant contract, but also for couples, and the blood spell between lovers was established, and a drop of blood from both sides was used in the palm of the hand to express loyalty to each other. If neither party changes their minds, once one person dies, the other person will not live, so to speak, life is the same as life and death. Of course, it's just a spiritual contract between master and servant, it doesn't have this kind of effect, and it doesn't think so much about it, it's just that Changjue can stay with his mother with peace of mind.

July is approaching, Xu Zhilan's condition is getting worse and worse, and her daily soberness is getting less and less day by day.

Hui Ming walked out of the bedroom, groaned slightly, and looked at Phantom: "It's tonight." ”

Chang Jue understood the meaning of the words, his eyes were dark, and his eyelashes drooped slightly.

Xu Zhilan slept most of the time during the day, but she couldn't sleep well at night, and after taking a calming medicine, she finally fell asleep.

Phantom walked into the room alone and sat on the edge of the couch for a while before getting up to weave dreams. Phantom Wu had seen Zhilan's memories before, so the first half was basically retained, only at the end, the ending was changed. The husband, who had no return date, finally came back, and the two looked down on the idle flowers and lived a peaceful and happy life. The child grew up slowly, married a virtuous wife, gave birth to a lovely grandson, and the two grew old together, and died together.

Only by experiencing loss and separation can we have the joy of meeting and the consummation of reunion.

Sweetness and sorrow are the fulfillment of life. I hope that in my dreams, I can reduce my regrets a little. It is probably because of this kind of sustenance that the world prefers a dream.

Seeing the sleeping woman with a smile on her face that she had never had before, Phantom Wu tucked the corners of her back for her and walked out of the bedroom.

Chang Jue was guarding the cold medicine stove in the room, his face expressionless, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Phantom Wu walked into the courtyard, only to feel that tonight was extremely cold, Hui Ming stood in the courtyard, looked up at the moon hidden in the clouds, and said, "The time is almost up," Hui Ming turned around, "The soul seducer is almost here." ”

"Can't you give more time so soon?" Even though Phantom Wu was accustomed to seeing life and death, he was still a little sullen when he thought that the woman who looked quite like Luo Zhao was about to turn into a lifeless empty shell in front of her eyes.

Hui Ming shook his head: "I'll wait here, you can accompany Chang Jue into the house." ”

Phantom Wu knew that he must be trying to retrieve Luo Zhao's soul and two souls in the hands of the soul seducer, so he stopped staying and turned to enter the house.

Zhilan had woken up from her dream at this time, with a satisfied smile on her face, she looked at Phantom Wu and said, "Thank you." ”

Phantom chin head, Zhilan glanced at Chang Jue standing in front of her, didn't say anything, raised her hand and wanted to touch her son's emaciated face, when she saw that Chang Jue had already put his face up, the mother and son didn't say anything, just looked at each other, Chang Jue, who had never smiled much, also smiled at this time, but there was already wetness in his eyes. After a while, Zhilan turned her face and looked at Phantom Wu with sincerity in her eyes.

Phantom Wu knew what she meant, nodded, and said, "Don't worry." ”

Hearing this, Zhilan finally let go of her heart, turned her head to look at the orchids blooming in front of the window, her eyes were soft, as if she was looking at her returning lover, and her face was always smiling and gentle.

After looking at it for a while, I felt like I was sleepy, and slowly closed my eyes.

The woman with a blue heart finally ended her bumpy life. I couldn't hold back anymore, and my tears wet my shirt.

Phantom knew that he should give the boy who had lost his mother some time at this time, so he walked out of the room without saying a word. Before I arrived at the courtyard, I felt as if the cold was about to freeze my body, and there was no moonlight.

Hui Ming stood in the courtyard, his long sleeves flying.

There was the sound of slow chains dragging across the land, and when the voice came to him, Hui Ming turned sideways slightly: "Messenger slow down." ”

At this time, two tall figures gradually appeared in the empty courtyard, about two feet high. One was dressed in white, holding a wat board with the names of some people written on it, remembering where he lived, when he died, and what the cause of death was, and he was the one who should die in the world tonight, and the other was dressed in black, holding a nine-foot-long sickle in one hand and dragging chains in the other, on which were separated by different ghosts, some of them expressionless, some of them weeping. One of them, with a smile on his face, was Xu Zhilan.

The two of them looked down for a while, and then arched their hands and said, "It turned out to be Si Yao Shenjun, who stopped me and waited, for some reason?"

"The messenger of labor left the soul of that man behind. "After the souls are hooked, they can't see the people in the world, and naturally they can't see Hui Ming, Hui Ming stretched out his hand and pointed at Xu Zhilan.

"Divine Monarch, don't embarrass me, once the soul is hooked, it is already in the book of life and death, how can you let people stay at will?!" The black-clothed messenger heard this, and faintly felt a little angry.

"Don't worry about the messenger, I only need one soul and two souls," Hui Ming Zhengse said, "Don't hide it from the messenger, this woman is the reincarnation of the Luo Zhao God of War with one soul and two souls, and this monarch went to heaven and earth to resurrect the goddess in order to ensure the stability of the six realms. After speaking, he glanced at the two of them with a little meaning, as if they had hindered the stability of the Six Realms.

Seeing that the black and white envoy had shown hesitation, Hui Ming added a fire at the right time, and the old god took out an ice jade bottle with a flashing green light from his sleeve on the ground, and shook it towards the two: "The two of these soul bottles should know each other, this is your thing from the underworld, and it was the Emperor of the Underworld who borrowed me to collect souls." ”

Seeing the Soul Suppression Bottle, the two were surprised: "The Emperor of the Underworld has agreed to this?"

Hui Ming put away the bottle and replied, "Naturally, otherwise how could I have your Underworld Holy Relic." "The Soul Suppression Bottle was originally borrowed from the Emperor of the Underworld, and Hui Ming didn't lie.

Whether it is a god, a monster, a demon or an immortal, even if the soul is incomplete, as long as you enter the reincarnation well, you can automatically complete the soul, Xu Zhilan is in this case, even if one soul and two souls are extracted, the remaining remnant soul is still there, and it will not be erased in the book of life and death, and it will be reincarnated again to complete the soul. The two envoys glanced at each other, then stepped aside and said, "Divine Monarch as soon as possible, I'm still in a hurry." ”

"Thank you. Hui Ming arched his hand, stepped forward, touched the forehead of the soul with his hand, and saw a yellow light cluster, two white light clusters separated from Xu Zhilan, in an instant, Xu Zhilan's expression was dull, her eyes were dull, and her soul was already in a damaged state. Hui Ming withdrew his hand and put the three light clusters into the Soul Suppression Bottle. Seeing that the bottle quickly condensed into a large circle of light, Hui Ming breathed a sigh of relief, and he was almost one soul and three spirits.

As soon as the soul envoy left, the yin wind suddenly stopped, and the moon shone back towards the small courtyard.

Phantom Wu felt that the coldness around her body was gone, so she walked into the courtyard, looked at the soul suppression bottle glowing with green light, and knew that Xu Zhilan's remnant soul had been collected.

"Do you want to tell him about his parents?" asked Phantom Wu as he looked at Hui Ming.

"He has a right to know. But...... Let's wait. Hui Ming turned to look at the silent room, raised his hand, lifted the barrier that had just isolated all movement, and continued to say to Phantom Wu: "Although he is a mortal body now, Yinyi is combined with Xu Zhilan with his true body, and he should also have the true body of Feng, but he has not awakened yet, so let's wait for the opportunity." ”

Phantom nodded, I don't know what this little boy would think when he knew that his mother could be resurrected, but in another capacity.

The world is hard...... Not at all.
