Chapter 422

Lu Wuji's movements were quick.

After he promised Yao Shouning, he didn't disturb the others. Yao Shouning waited at the back door for a short time before he heard the sound of wheels coming from outside the door.

She didn't open the door hastily, but looked out through the crack of the door first, and saw a carriage parked at the door, Lu Wuji sat in front of the carriage, pulled the rein, and made a soft 'wow' sound.

The horse was well-trained, it stopped quickly, the sound of the wheels stopped abruptly, Lu Wuji got out of the car, looked around vigilantly, and then lightly knocked on the door.

When he knocked a second time, Yao Shouning opened the car door, and he pointed to the car outside without making a sound.

When the two were communicating silently, there were two more small footsteps, and Lu Wuji said in a low voice:

"coming."

Yao Shouning turned his head, and saw Su Miaozhen helping Yao Wanning, who had a big belly, jogging all the way over.

Maybe walking on the road in a hurry, and afraid of being seen, Yao Wanning was panting while running, she was about to give birth, Yao Shouning was terrified when he saw this, he hurriedly went to help her, and asked:
"Sister, are you okay?"

"No, no, nothing—"

Yao Wanning kept panting.

In the past ten years or so, she had lived a regular life. Although the act of marrying and conceiving in her dream with the "River God" seemed rebellious and shocking at this time, it was not from her heart in the first place.

Taking the risk of going out tonight can be said to be a very deviant decision she made in her life, so she was both excited and a little apprehensive along the way, afraid of being discovered by others, so she walked cautiously.

Because of nervousness, her legs were faintly cramped, relying entirely on the support of her two younger sisters, seeing the carriage and Lu Wuji parked outside the door, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Shouning, I—"

Her eyes were slightly wet, and she held her younger sister's hand, her mood fluctuated, and she wanted to speak, but the moment she opened her mouth, she choked up again.

Yao Shouning knew that she was in a complicated mood, so he squeezed her hand and said in a low voice:
"Get in the car quickly, go back quickly, General Lu is still waiting for us."

"it is good."

Yao Wanning nodded in response.

The three sisters supported each other and walked out the door. Yao Shouning was the last, and cautiously closed the back door.

Several people got into the carriage, and Lu Wuji also sat on the front of the carriage. With a wave of his whip, the carriage drove away from Yao's house. Only then did Yao Wanning's fists clinging to his chest gradually loosened, replaced by anxiety about the 'River God''s reaction.

Yao Shouning did not rush to talk to the two sisters first, but thanked Lu Wuji:

"Thank you General Lu."

Lu Wuji paused, then replied:

"You can call me Uncle Lu."

His words brought back Yao Wanning's thoughts, she secretly glanced at her sister, Yao Shouning felt a little embarrassed.

She is so smart that she doesn't know the meaning of Lu Wuji's words.

After the initial shyness, Yao Shouning quickly calmed down:
"Thank you Uncle Lu."

Seeing this scene, the panic in Yao Wanning's heart was diluted a bit, she pursed her lips and smiled.

She and Su Miaozhen also quickly thanked:

"Thank you Uncle Lu."

"Thank you Uncle Lu." Su Miaozhen whispered.

Lu Wuji responded lightly.

Next, he did not talk to the three girls, but concentrated on driving the carriage.

He didn't have a lot of education, and this kind of silence was just right, which reduced his sense of existence, and made a few girls who were worried about something involuntarily breathe a sigh of relief.

After a while, Yao Shouning broke the silence first:
"Sister, have you finished writing the letter?"

"It's finished." It was Su Miaozhen who responded to her. When she spoke, she took out a folded letter paper from her sleeve:
"The letter is here."

Yao Wanning had a big belly and it was difficult for her to move around. After she wrote the letter and before going out, Su Miaozhen put the letter on her body so as not to lose it.

At this time, she took it out and handed it to Yao Wanning. Yao Wanning rubbed the letter paper with a complicated look in her eyes.

After a while, she spread the letter paper and folded the flower boat.

Not long after, a lifelike paper-folded lotus lantern appeared in her palm. She held the lotus lantern in her hand and watched tears welling up in her eyes. She held back quickly, turned her head away, and asked Su Miaozhen:
"Miaozhen, did you bring a candle?"

"Bring it."

Su Miaozhen said in a crisp voice, and when she spoke, she took out a palm-sized pocket from her cuff, which contained a small piece of cut-out candle.

Yao Wanning breathed a sigh of relief, took the candle and held it firmly in her palm.

The three sisters didn't speak any more after that, the sound of horse's hooves was mixed with the sound of the wheels turning, and the demon bell hanging on Lu Wuji's body kept ringing.

Yao Shouning was worried all the way, fearing that he would encounter evil spirits blocking his way, but in the end, what she was worried about did not happen. The carriage galloped all the way in the city. After about half an hour, the speed finally slowed down.

Amidst the sound of 'crashing la la' water, Lu Wuji, who had been silent for a long time, said:
"arrive."

While Lu Wuji was speaking, he had already jumped off the carriage.

He was tall and strong, and the carriage bounced for a while after this jump. The door was opened, and the night wind mixed with the coldness of the river water poured into the car.

I don't know if disaster is approaching, but the weather on the bank of Bailing River is cloudy and cold, when the wind blows, Yao Shouning and Su Miaozhen shiver at the same time.

But the strange thing is that Yao Wanning didn't seem to be affected by the night wind. She even felt that the dull feeling of driving all the way was swept away at this moment. The breath of the Bailing River seemed to be extremely gentle to her. At that time, the nausea and nausea that she had felt due to galloping all the way disappeared, and her whole body became much more refreshed.

"Sister, slow down."

Yao Shouning jumped out of the car and extended his hand to Yao Wanning.

"Okay." Yao Wanning replied, and slowly climbed out of the car.

Lu Wuji clenched his fists and put them on his legs, looking around vigilantly.

'Clang clang clang——'

The demon bell rang wildly, and when the night wind blew, the sound was extremely ear-piercing in the middle of the night when there was no one on the bank of the river.

Yao Wanning had a headache from the noise, and subconsciously rubbed the center of her brows - the next moment, the night wind stopped abruptly, and the trembling bell that was blown by the wind stopped moving as if it had been cast with a fixation spell.

The ringtone disappeared completely, and Lu Wuji tensed up all over.

The place where the car was parked was not far from the river, only ten feet away. Lu Wuji looked at the three girls who were supporting each other, and said in a deep voice:
"The demonic aura is stronger tonight. When we came, I felt several auras spying on us."

He frowned, then looked at Yao Wanning:
"Miss, we may not have much time."

Yao Wanning's heart tightened when she heard the words, she subconsciously grabbed the folded lotus lantern in her hand, and finally nodded:

"Don't worry, I'll just leave a letter and leave soon."

"Okay." Lu Wuji nodded.

The four of them didn't say much immediately, and quickly walked to the river.

The closer to the river, the softer the soil on the ground, and the soles of her shoes sank into the soft mud of the river. Yao Wanning walked ahead quickly with her big belly.

"Cousin, fire! Fire!"

Su Miaozhen could hardly keep up with her footsteps, then as if she remembered something, she took out a fire pocket from her body, and shouted a few words to Yao Wanning.

Yao Wanning only wanted to deliver the letter, and she was extremely anxious. At this time, she was afraid of seeing the "River God", afraid that "he" would lose his mind and attack people around her, and also afraid that he would not see the "River God". After returning from success, the whole person is extremely contradictory.

When Su Miaozhen started to call her, she didn't hear her, until Yao Shouning took the fire bag from her cousin, stepped on the water quickly, and grabbed her sister's sleeve, she turned her head.

"I, I - Shou Ning, I'm sorry..."

When Yao Wanning saw Huozhezi, she realized that she lost her composure due to impatience. She quickly apologized, Yao Shouning shook her head:
"It's okay, sister, you—"

When she said this, she turned her head and glanced at Lu Wuji, the general followed behind the two of them step by step, he was not at ease with the 'God of the River', worried that something would happen to the two of them, and refused to back off.

Under such circumstances, it would be inconvenient for Yao Wanning to tell the 'River God' if she had something to say.

"Do you want me to take you two more steps?" She understood Lu Wuji's worries, but at the same time, she was considerate of her sister's desire to have a private conversation with the 'River God', and offered a suggestion.

Yao Wanning shook her head:
"No, everything I want to tell him has been written in the letter."

Several people have already come here, and there is not much time left for her, the more delays, the more dangerous, her willful actions have already implicated others, there is no reason to keep wasting here.

After making up her mind, Yao Wanning didn't hesitate anymore. She took out the candle, first melted the bottom of the candle, put it into the folded lotus lamp, and finally lit the candle with fire. After thinking about it, she put the lamp into the water:

"You and my husband and wife have a unique relationship. I don't know if you still remember the vows made that day."

The light shone on her pale little face, and the water on the river surged.

Underwater resentment surged.

After she finished speaking, she decisively put away the fire bag, dragged the lotus lantern with both hands, and put it into the water.

As soon as the lamp entered the water, it swirled in the water, and under the gaze of everyone, it slowly flowed into the center of the river.

The light inside the lotus lantern dispels the darkness, and the lotus lantern is gradually engulfed in the lingering mist of the river.

I don't know if it's because the bottom of the water is like ink under the cover of night, or because of the influence of resentment, which erodes the thin paper.

Under the gaze of the four people, the lotus lantern sank inch by inch after drinking water, and the folded flower body tended to spread out.

The words and ink on the letter were smudged, and the burned candle liquid with the embers of the wick fell into the heart of the river little by little, and moved forward with the lotus lantern, pulling out a wonderful path of colorful lights in the heart of the river Come.

But the strange scene was nothing more than that, after that everything was calm, so calm that it was even a little abnormal.

"Let's go."

Yao Wanning was extremely anxious when she came, but now that she finished her work, it was as if a big stone had been lifted from her heart.

She watched the lotus lantern float into the heart of the river, everything was calm as usual, the 'River God' did not appear, and there were no evil spirits, and she couldn't tell whether she was disappointed or relieved.

After being impulsive, she returned to her senses. Yao Wanning took the lead to turn her head and walk the way she walked back and forth. Yao Shouning looked at the scattered letter papers floating into the river, and then at her sister who was holding her stomach and turned around to walk towards the carriage. She was in a dilemma for a moment. :

"Don't wait any longer."

"No need to wait." Yao Wanning shook her head and said with a smile:
"If 'he' was really interested, he would have come out a long time ago. He is still hiding and not showing up to see each other. It can be seen that he has long since lost me in his heart."

Although she said she was smiling, her smile was uglier than crying, she was just holding on in front of her two younger sisters and Lu Wuji.

"But that's fine, I've given up on it too, I just troubled Uncle Lu and wanted to run this way for me."

Lu Wuji shook his head, Yao Wanning walked ashore without turning his head.

"Shouning——" No matter how stupid Su Miaozhen was, she could sense that Yao Wanning's condition was wrong, but she didn't know how to persuade her, so she had to look at Yao Shouning, hoping to wait for her to make up her mind.

"Forget it, my sister is right. If 'he' is interested, he should have come out. If he doesn't want to come out, what's the use of waiting? It's like a person pretending to be asleep. How can we wake up?"

Yao Shouning felt unspeakable anger in his heart.

She was an insider of the "River God" incident from beginning to end. She saw her sister fall into this emotion with her own eyes, and she was full of longing and smile when she mentioned "River God".

Although she spoke calmly with Su Miaozhen, she couldn't help kicking the water in the river afterward.

The splash was kicked loudly, at this moment, Yao Wanning had already landed, and waved to several people:
"Let's go back."

The three people in the river didn't stay any longer, they returned to the carriage, the three girls got on the carriage again, Lu Wuji grabbed the rein and shook it—"Drive! '

The horse stepped forward, and the car was pulled forward. Yao Shouning was not reconciled, so he opened the window and poked his head out to look at Jiang Xin.

She pretends to be something in her heart, gathers her spiritual consciousness, develops her eyesight to the extreme, opens her sky eye, instantly breaks the barrier between reality and fantasy, and peeps into the scene in Jiang's heart.

I saw the folded letter paper unraveled and turned into a piece of paper scattered on the surface of the river.

Affected by the shape change of the letter paper, the candles in the letter also spread out and fell on the letter paper. The light illuminated the letter paper, and it read: Husband’s dear, the words are as good as you see.

"Since the day when Shouning recovered from his illness and woke up, you and I met in a dream, snuggling up to each other, but unexpectedly it was the last time we spent together—"

'Since I was pregnant, my family has taken care of me a lot, my parents are considerate and never blamed me.My body was not very convenient during pregnancy, and my family took good care of me everywhere, and there were evil spirits in the middle, it was my mother who tried her best to protect you and my flesh and blood—"

'Now that my mother is recovering from serious injuries, Mr. Xu said that it should be just a few days before she wakes up. '

'——Shouning has returned from calamity, and I am about to give birth. The house is very lively tonight. The whole family should be reunited. How long will it take you to answer my call? '

……

'Shou Ning has the power of foresight, she promised me that if I give birth to a child, I will open the space-time channel, send the child back to the past, and deliver it to you. '

'Husband, my child and I are waiting for you. '

'Don't hurt my family, Shenducheng and your wife and children. '

'Do you still remember the promise in the dream that day? '

'My family is my bottom line. If you dare to hurt them, you and I will never see each other in this life, and this hatred will last forever! '

——Wife. Yao Shi Wanning.

The candlelight sank under the pressure of the letter paper, floating like duckweed without roots in the water.

At this moment, an undercurrent suddenly appeared at the bottom of the water. The undercurrent was like a lead wire, spinning close to the letter paper. The moment it sucked the letter paper, it 'grabbed' the letter paper and sank into the water.

It's just that the silent black air at the bottom of the water began to surge, blocking the letter paper. In the bottom of the water, a huge 'black cocoon' wrapped in black air seemed to be restlessly agitated.

This force affected the calmness of the water surface. Under the tumbling grievances, the originally calm Bailing River began to boil like a pot of water, with huge bubbles rolling one after another, enveloping the swaying letter. in.

'What was written in the letter? '

'What the hell is this? '

Inside the black cocoon, a terrifying existence opened its silver eyes.

'He' doesn't know who he is, where he is, and what the leaf of paper floating in the water is, but 'he' senses the importance of this thing, which makes him reluctant to let go .

This matter is very important, but 'he' has no consciousness, and the sea of ​​knowledge is blank, how to solve the confusion?

'He' is very confused about all cognitions, time and place are all confused for 'him', just when 'he' is irritable and at a loss, suddenly there is a voice of a girl's crisp voice coming to 'him' ' in the ear:

"wait for me!"

"There are so many lights." The girl continued to sigh, "Let me see it too."

Then a young and cold voice sounded:

"It's a letter."

'letter? '

Hearing this, the 'he' inside the black cocoon was overjoyed, and with a thought, the letter paper wrapped in the water began to recover quickly.

The words that had literally disappeared reappeared, and the candles that had been swallowed by the water were relit.

Time began to flow backwards, and the waves pushed the letter paper back to the surface.

The firelight mixed with the wax dripping into the water was retrieved bit by bit, reassembled into a small cut candle, and the spread letter paper was folded back to form a lotus lantern, floating on the river.

In addition, another letter received by 'he' in March also broke through the barrier of several months and appeared on the surface of the river.

The two river lanterns were floating, and with a thought of 'him', the barrier between time and space was blurred, and the surging river seemed to find a gate, rushing towards the source of the sound.

At this time, in another time and space, the innocent and childish girl stood side by side with the young and handsome prince.

The two stepped on the water with their feet in the water, and behind them was a house submerged by the waves. The young man was very heroic, tall and tall, and the young girl was pretty and cute. Their heads were brought together.

In front of them is an endless river with waves flowing down the river. On the surface of the river, there are two folded lotus lanterns going along the water. 'He' is worried about the loss of information, although he doesn't know what it is. But 'he' faintly felt that it was very important, so the two lights instantly became ten times, a hundred times, a thousand times as much.

In an instant, an invisible sea of ​​lights formed, passing around the two of them.

The boy bent down and reached out to pick up the letter paper, frowning and asked:

"See what's written?"

"Like a letter..." The girl frowned and murmured:

"I always find the handwriting very familiar."

"Written by the same person."

The girl shouted again:

"Let me see."

……

"It's like 'March.'"

"It should be three months pregnant."

"Since it is the 'river god' of Bailing River who is responsible, then this lotus lantern may have been set by a woman by the Bailing River." The girl's words made 'he' tremble all over.

The black cocoon vibrated violently, almost shattering.

The black air was rippling at the bottom of the river, 'he' was restless, and some terrible memory was about to burst out.

What is a letter?
Women, river gods, three months of pregnancy... What are these? Why does 'he' feel important and want to hold on?
"a child is born……"

The girl was still talking, but she spoke intermittently, as if the handwriting on the so-called 'letter' was so blurred that she couldn't make out it.

"Send it back..."

"Send it back to the past." The boy corrected.

……

The water was rippling, Yao Shouning's consciousness was exhausted to the extreme, he was repelled by the realm of foreknowledge, and returned to reality.
