Flower Moon

Chapter 19 Nightmare
Although Shui Sheng's body has not completely turned into bones, it looks like he has been dead for a long time!

Hua Ling said: "Once Shui Sheng's demons are eliminated, naturally he can't stay in the world."

"But how... how did she get rid of her demons?"

Hua Ling turned her head, pointed at the doll in the coffin, and said, "It's the key."

Tao Yue'er looked at the not-so-good-looking doll, and remembered that when Shui Sheng's grandma left her at the gate of the Salesian Bureau in her dream, she said she was going to buy the doll by herself.

"Could it be that the demon in her heart is her missing grandma?" Tao Yue'er asked uncertainly.

"To be precise, it is the obsession of waiting for grandma." Hua Ling said slowly: "Shui Sheng has been dependent on her mother since she was a child, and she never wanted to believe that she was abandoned by others. Her obsession is too deep. the living dead."

"But why would she believe it was made by her mother?" Tao Yue'er looked at the not-so-good-looking doll.Poor embroidery is obviously a shoddy thing, and the flower girl who made this doll was not very good at it.It's just a temporary deal.

"Because she never told anyone about it, the only ones who know about the doll's existence are her and her mother."

"Then how do you know?" Tao Yue'er was puzzled.

Hua Ling glanced at her lightly, and said: "How you know, how I know. You are not the only one who can hear the voice of the soul in this world."

After Hua Ling finished speaking, she slammed the coffin lid shut with a "snap".

"Let's go." After Hua Ling finished speaking, she dragged Tao Yue'er out.

"Just leave like this?" Tao Yue'er looked back a few times, and the coffin was lying quietly in the corner, just like when she first saw it.From the outside, it is completely impossible to tell that there is a corpse that has been dead for nearly half a year inside.

Hua Ling said as she walked, "Her demonic nature has been removed, and she is just a corpse from now on. In a few days, it will turn into dust, no different from all the dust in the world."

"Then she... can be regarded as resting in peace?"

"Ah."

Hua Ling and Tao Yue'er walked into the yard.Tao Yue'er turned her head to look at the dark room several times, not knowing why her nose was sore.

She had been frightened by Shui Sheng several times, but ever since she knew her past, she felt pity for her mostly.

Tao Yue'er also grew up without parents since she was a child, and then her grandpa and grandma passed away. She understands the feeling of being an orphan better than anyone else.

She suddenly regretted that she hadn't talked to her more when she was still able to speak.Even, every time they met, they looked like they were at war, which made her feel a little embarrassed.

Their fate is similar, in fact, they should coexist peacefully...

Tao Yue'er wanted to wipe the corners of her eyes, so she twitched her hand, only to realize that her hand had been held in the palm of Hua Ling.And she also unknowingly held him back.

The two fingers intertwined tightly.

Tao Yueer blushed suddenly: "I'm sorry, I was too nervous just now, I offended you, I'm really sorry..." Tao Yueer didn't remember at all that it was Hua Ling who pulled her out, she just felt that she must be subconscious again She was so scared that she held his hand so nervously.

Or maybe because of her age and appearance, she always subconsciously thought that she was taking advantage of him.

The flower ling, which is as bright as the moon, is really unattainable.How could she hold his hand?
Hua Ling didn't think too much, let go of Tao Yue'er, and said lightly: "Rest early today, tomorrow we will go to bury Shui Sheng."

Tao Yue'er nodded as if she had received an amnesty: "Okay." Afterwards, Fei also fled the scene.

That eager look made Hua Ling very puzzled.

He looked at his palm, it was clean and tidy, without disease, what was she panicking about?
Hua Ling shook her head, then turned and went back to her room.

That night, Tao Yue'er did not have a good rest.Too many doubts lingered in her mind, she stared at the four medals in her hand, looking over and over again.

——This medal can hear the voice of the soul?

——What about Hua Ling’s?

——What was his past like?

I don't know if it's the reason of holding hands suddenly, or his mysterious background, Tao Yue'er's heart beats when she thinks of that beautiful girl who doesn't like to be approached by others, and always has a proud and ice-hearted appearance.

He is young, and he is clearly a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy with curly hair. How could he have such a mature and steady temperament and insight into the world?

She was just too curious about him.

"Mingding bless me, let me see Hua Ling's past tonight, let me hear the voice in his soul!"

With expectations, Tao Yue'er hugged the medal and fell into a deep sleep...

……

……

"Bam—"

"Bam—"

"Bam—"

There were three loud bangs in succession, the sound of stones hitting human skulls.But such a voice can only be heard by the person who was smashed.

The sound of the stone falling on the head was insignificant compared to the shouts of the crowd.

But soon, he could no longer hear either.

His forehead, chin, lips, eye sockets, and even ears were all smashed beyond recognition by successive stones.

The blood flowed down the mandible, and the whole body was covered with bloodstains.

He was half-kneeling, his knees slammed deeply on the ground, his hands were tied behind his back, and his limbs were so slender that only skin and bones remained.

He gritted his teeth tightly, without saying a word, staring at everyone present with his blood red eyes.

Immediately afterwards, something even more terrifying happened.

A man in white held a bucket of oil and poured it on the head of a half-kneeling child on the ground.

"Burn him to death! Burn him to death! Burn him to death!" Shocking shouts erupted from the crowd, as if the children on the ground were heinous demons. The crowd was furious, and their disgust and resentment towards him had reached the commanding heights.

Another man in white persisted in lighting the corner of his clothes with a torch, and the flames shot up into the sky in an instant, surrounding him.

The child was rolling in the flames, but it didn't make a sound when it grew its mouth several times, or it might have made a sound, but Tao Yue'er in the dream couldn't hear it.

He rolled helplessly, his expression painful.

The flesh and blood on his body was quickly burned out of sight, leaving only a blaze of fire in the world.

Pain, cries, helplessness, and then anger and hatred.

He gradually stopped struggling and looked at everyone present.

Hatred filled his eyes. If hatred could kill, the people present would probably have died tens of thousands of times...

……

……

"Stop . . . stop! He's only a boy! Stop—"

Tao Yue'er woke up suddenly, sat up, and saw Hua Ling leaning against the door, looking at herself with a serious expression.

He is always so calm and stable, as if the sky is falling, he will not frown.

"Are you awake?" Hua Ling asked coldly.

Outside the window, the sky was bright and it was already the morning of the second day.

"You, are you okay?" Tao Yue'er jumped off the bed, pulled his arms and wrists, and rolled up his sleeves.

White and clean, without any scars.

How could it be... The person in the dream was burned all over his body by the fire, and there were countless scars on his body from being hit by stones, but his body was white and clean, without any blemishes.

"Why didn't you get hurt?" Tao Yue'er asked him puzzled.

Hua Ling smiled softly, and said lightly: "Although I don't know what kind of dream you had, I think the content of the dream must be terrible."

"Yes, it's scary!" Tao Yue'er stared at Hua Ling and nodded hurriedly.

Hua Ling said again: "You are trapped in a nightmare, I called you for a long time, but you couldn't hear me."

"I'm trapped in a dream?" Tao Yue'er was startled, and said anxiously, "But I'm clearly looking at you..."

When Tao Yue'er said this, she paused suddenly, and suddenly felt that she was too rude to pry into other people's past like this, and to speak boldly in front of the person involved?

"Look at my past?" Hua Ling noticed her murmur, shrugged her shoulders and smiled indifferently: "Although I don't know what you saw, I think you must have read it wrong." But it was very gloomy, his eyes were cold and indifferent, with a certainty that no one else could question.

Being stared at by him like this, Tao Yue'er was like a thief who stole something, and was caught by the righteous master.

Tao Yueer frowned, lowered her head and bit her fingers, thinking carefully about the scene in her dream.

The child in the dream had a dark body and a sallow complexion, and it really had nothing to do with the peerless young man in front of him.

But last night she was clearly thinking about Hua Ling...why...what went wrong?

"Let's go, let's go up the mountain and bury Shui Sheng." Before Tao Yue'er could speak, Hua Ling said first.

His voice is always crisp, powerful and irresistible.

"Oh, good." Tao Yue'er nodded hurriedly, hurriedly put on her clothes and shoes, and followed Hua Ling out.
