Lights on the other side

"Come back?" Sheng Wuxia frowned, puzzled.

The woman put down the person in her arms, slowly moved over, stretched out her hand to touch his face, and murmured: "Good looks, good looks, although not as good as Xiang'er, but it can still be used."

Sheng Wuxia let her touch and talk, and got goosebumps all over her body.

"My poor Xiang'er, for no reason let those who are not human get hacked more than ten times..."

"But it's all right now, it's just a shame..."

The woman seemed sad or complained, happy or sad.There was finally a look of expression on his old and numb face.

"You..." Sheng Wuxia opened his eyes wide, seeing the woman pick up a rusty knife from the table beside her and walk towards him.

"Calm down, calm down, wait, wait, he won't come back if you do this, I mean it!"

Sheng Wuxia couldn't avoid it, his face was stuck with a knife blade, and the cold touch reached his nerves, and he felt that he had to call for help or something.

But in this dilapidated village, who will come to rescue him?

"You put the knife down first, we can talk, really, really!"

While trying to get rid of the knife, Sheng Wuxia wondered if he could live without face.The woman looked at his face, with a loving smile on the corner of her mouth, which made him jump with fear.

The lights flickered, and the yellowed walls reflected the figures of the three people in the house.

Then she raised the knife slightly, and saw that it was about to cut it in the next second.Sheng Wuxia immediately closed his eyes, not wanting to see such a bloody scene.But he couldn't feel the pain for a long time, and only heard a "snap", and the knife fell under the bed.

A person jumped off the roof, and he stepped directly through the roof.Now there was a big hole in the roof, and the cold wind rushed in directly with him.Sheng Wuxia was shivering.

"you……"

The man knocked the woman unconscious with a knife in one hand, and when he heard the sound, he turned his head, but he had a very good appearance.

Red lips and black eyes, the corners of which are slightly raised.She was dressed in a short black dress with a black belt tied around her waist, which was plain and unpretentious.

He took out the dagger at his waist and cut the rope on Sheng Wuxia's body.Sheng Wuxia was free, and immediately got off the bed, thanking her repeatedly.After thanking him, he did not forget to ask the visitor's name.

"Jiang Qing." The man said two words indifferently.

"Sheng Wuxia."

After declaring himself at home, Sheng Wuxia carried the woman to the bed, covered her with another layer of quilt, and finally put the few taels of silver on her body on the table.

"You can't live here, let's go." Sheng Wuxia didn't care how cold it was outside, pushed open the door and went out, Jiang Qing followed behind him.

"By the way, Mr. Jiang, how did you find me?"

"You're too loud."

"Really?" Sheng Wuxia touched the tip of her nose, feeling a little embarrassed.

Jiang Qing explained: "There was death there, so I stayed outside for a while, trying to see what was inside."

"Oh." In other words, the figure passing by outside the window was not his hallucination, but a real person.

Jiang Qing said again: "Sewing flesh can indeed keep some souls for a while, but it's not very useful. When the time comes, those who have to go will go."

"That's right, I haven't seen the method of resurrection from the dead."

"In this world, there is really no way to resurrect the dead."

"Hey, life and death are parting for everyone in the world." Sheng Wuxia sighed slightly.

It's just that the current war has brought this kind of human suffering a little earlier so that people can taste it.And that's just the beginning.

There was no one on the street, the surroundings were pitch black, and it was unknown when it would be dawn.

"Where are you going?"

Sheng Wuxia said, "Yinzhou."

Jiang Qing glanced at him thoughtfully, and said, "Coincidentally, I'll go there too."

Sheng Wuxia's heart was flustered, even though there was someone next to him, he still refused to let go of this feeling.

"Then... let's go together."

On the way, he learned that Jiang Qing is a ghost catcher and does not belong to any sect. He went to Yinzhou because he had a client there.

"No wonder Mr. Jiang knows so much."

When the east was about to turn white, Sheng Wuxia felt that his spiritual power had returned a little.He immediately passed the spiritual text to Pei Shi.

"Pei Shi, Pei Shi."

"Huh? Flawless?"

"it's me."

"Where are you? Do you know..."

"I know I know."

The spiritual power was almost gone, Sheng Wuxia hurriedly said, "I'm in Lingzhou..."

Before he finished speaking, the light disappeared, leaving Sheng Wuxia standing there blankly.At this time, Jiang Qing came back with two fish. He lit a fire with dry branches, sat on the open space, and started roasting.

The fire was very hot, Jiang Qing said: "You also stretch out your hand."

"what?"

"Aren't your hands cold?"

Only then did Sheng Wuxia realize that his hand had been frozen cold, and he stretched it out quickly.Soon, a warmth rose in his hand.Ginger Grilled Fish is grilled with concentration, adding firewood for a while, and turning it over for a while.Sheng Wuxia's gaze also followed the fish to and fro.Without spiritual power, he might be frozen to death or starved to death, so now he has a special fondness for the fish in front of him.

"Taste." Jiang Qing handed over the grilled fish.

"Thank you Mr. Jiang." Sheng Wuxia took it, and took a bite directly, but accidentally burned his lips, but because it was difficult to show it in front of others, he could only swallow it silently.

The fish is charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and the taste is very good.Sheng Wuxia hadn't eaten anything good in the past two days, but he still maintained a slightly reserved look, and he didn't eat in a hurry, taking one bite at a time.This was taught by his mother since he was a child. The Wan family used to be a family of bells and lanterns. Although it has declined in his mother's generation, it still retains the rules, big and small.His mother is a bit unreliable, but very polite woman.He didn't inherit the former, but he carried some of the latter.

Day didn't know how many poles they had climbed, they started on their way, and now they came to Mingzhou, Mingzhou was already the border of the central part, the war was not very serious, and it barely looked like it was left.

Jiang Qing didn't like to talk. During the two days they got together, he seemed to be thinking about other things from time to time, and Sheng Wuxia couldn't bother her.At night, the two of them lived in the inn, each with a room, and Jiang Qing took the money.Since Sheng Wuxia left the money to the woman, she has been penniless ever since, and she was really eating and drinking along the way, Sheng Wuxia felt very sorry.

He was lying on the bed, looking at the top of the bed, feeling drowsy, his chest was still hurting, the injury was not completely healed, and his spiritual energy could not be gathered, so he couldn't help but sighed for a while.I vaguely remembered the sound of the copper bell in my ears, from vague to clear, one sound at a time, haunting my soul in the night.

Sheng Wuxia's eyes turned black for a while, and his head felt like a needle prick again.
