Chapter Fifty-Eight: Changing the Skin of the Mother-in-law (II)

Jingle bells!

Jingle bells!

The crisp sound of bells rang detachedly on the barren mountain road.

On the back of a black donkey, but sat a woman dressed in red and holding a plum.

She covered half of her face, but let the exposed half of her face be even more full of mysterious charm.

She was barefoot, snow-white and delicate, dazzling in the night.

The cold singing spread on the mountain road, like a shadow in the night, as if it existed, but it didn't seem to exist.

"One night the green silk changed to white hair, and the dry bones in the mound were especially pitiful. The clouds are sparse and the moonlight is dry at night, and who is the corresponding singing song. Elegance is always boring for a thousand years, but the Tao is joys and sorrows... ”

The woman sitting on the back of a donkey takes off the red veil on top of her head.

The slender eyebrows swept slightly across the hazy moonlight.

In the distance, between looming, real and illusory, I don't know when, a city actually rose.

The lights, the wind and smoke, the laughter and music from afar, and the noise all crumbled and scattered in the mountain stream along with the wind.

This is, of course, very unusual.

But the woman who rides on the donkey is a master of art and bold.

Since she was interested, she would not turn the donkey's head and leave.

So she patted the donkey's ass and slowly walked into this strange city.

As soon as you enter the city, you will be greeted by a strong earthly atmosphere.

Pedestrians and merchants, hawkers, friends arguing with each other, ruffians scuffling on the streets, samurai maintaining order in the city, and nobles holding Mei Ji smiling in the attic in the distance...

When it blew in from outside the city, the cold wind that still seemed bleak seemed to have a little more ambiguous taste when it arrived in the city.

It's noisy and noisy, but it's also something that people don't want to take their eyes off and are reluctant to turn away.

How many people live like a dog in the bustling city, or they still don't leave, maybe it's just for this bit of prosperity, this illusory heat.

The woman in red, like a ghost, is out of step with the atmosphere of the city.

Riding his little donkey, he walked through the crowd.

On the stage in the middle of the city, a poor man was singing.

Her posture is very graceful, and her appearance is also very amazing.

But the woman in red looked at the woman singing on the stage, but she didn't say anything.

"How is it possible? Xu Ji is the most amazing depiction of the beauty's appearance and bearing among Wu Danqing's eighteen beauties, how could she not be tempted?" Hu Daguan hid in the attic in the distance, muttering quietly.

Seeing that the woman in red seemed to be in high spirits and had signs of leaving, Lao Bai clenched the folding fan in his hand, and then said: "I'll go and find a way to drag her first, you guys hurry up and find a way, don't let her out of this theater in Caicheng." ”

In addition to liking beautiful bodies, the skin-changing mother-in-law also likes to meet handsome men.

Among the people present, Lao Bai is the guy who best fits the setting of a handsome man.

In the midst of the bustle, the woman in red led her little donkey through the crowd.

But at this moment, there was a sound of Xiao.

Xiao whimpered, and the tune was melodious.

The people on the street couldn't help but stop.

The moonlight was misty, and in the light of the lights, a man in white stepped on the moonlight and jumped on the top of the building.

The peerless demeanor, handsome and elegant appearance, and the temperament as warm as jade are enough to make most women in this world breathtaking.

The woman in red led the little donkey and walked lightly past where the boy in white was.

She didn't look around, and she never looked back.

Lao Bai's appearance doesn't seem to satisfy her.

The woman in red had already walked to the gate of the city of Color.

It's less than five meters away from leaving here.

As for the forced stay... This is a last resort.

"Amitabha! Have you met the little monk anywhere?" a voice interrupted the tranquility in the bustling moment.

It's like two completely different tones suddenly forcibly blended together.

The woman in red looked up.

He looked at the monk in the moonlight, and looked at the lights around him, sprinkled on his still green face.

The beautiful big eyes were suddenly filled with inexplicable mist.

Crystal tears slipped unconsciously from the corners of his eyes.

"Who are you?"

"Why... I look at you and want to cry?"

And at this moment, as if driven by some unconscious 'instinct', Lin Xi, who came over, suddenly felt his violent 'heartbeat'.

It seemed to be both emotional and some kind of heartache.

This kind of feeling, Lin Xi once had some when he was a human in his previous life.

But then it was forgotten by the smoke and dust of artillery fire.

After he turned into a heavenly demon, sometimes he was a little vague about what it was like to be a human being, and all he kept was some memories and habits of being a human being.

"Little monk Sumeru, I've seen a female benefactor!" Lin Xi clasped his hands together and bowed his head slightly, hiding a little uneasiness in his consciousness.

He had already established that the Sumeru monk was not really 'dead'.

He still lives in this body, in a way that he doesn't fully understand yet.

"Sumeru... I've heard your name. The woman in red was the skin-changing mother-in-law, and her eyes looked at Lin Xi, both amazed and curious, as well as a trace of obscurity, which was not easy to detect... Fear.

Lin Xi raised his head suddenly, burning a lot of negative emotions, and looked directly into the heart of his mother-in-law.

What he saw at first was chaos, nothingness, and in the heart of the skin-changing mother-in-law, the complex memories, the various fears and vulnerabilities that had appeared in the past, were all presented in front of his eyes.

But these fears are not real fears, they are only temporary fears, just like being afraid of injections when you were a child, and you will not be afraid when you grow up.

What Lin Xi felt at this moment was based on this state, which had been increased and amplified by hundreds or thousands of times.

After all, the skin-changing mother-in-law was different from the target that Lin Xi had peeped at before.

She has existed for too long, thousands of years of old ghosts, and how many vicissitudes she has experienced, she is afraid that she can't tell clearly.

But at the bottom of the skin-changing mother-in-law's heart at the moment, Lin Xi still got the answer he needed.

"Ruby... Red wax!" Lin Xi clearly shouted what looked like two, but it was actually one name.

The expression on the woman in red's face completely changed, and her horror began to expand, and at the same time, a thick affection permeated her eyes.

She was complicated and struggling.

Looking at the skin-changing mother-in-law at this time, maybe... It's like Lin Xi standing on the surface of a lake, looking at his own reflection.

Red Wax is dead, but some of the potential things left in Red Wax's body have actually affected the thousands of years old ghost of Granny Skin.

Perhaps it is the obsession of a certain moment that has surpassed the accumulation of thousands of years of memories of the skin-changing mother-in-law.

Lin Xi smiled slightly wryly, and then said to the skin-changing mother-in-law: "Let's talk!"

The original plan may have to be changed.

Now it's not a question of whether the skin-changing mother-in-law will hand over her body.

It's because the flesh of the red wax and the soul of the skin-changing mother-in-law have been affected, and they may not be able to get away easily.

This is the only time that the skin-changing mother-in-law has encountered such trouble for so many years.

The reason why she was in a hurry to return to Mangdang Mountain was to retreat and sort out her soul and clear out the things that did not belong to her.
