Spring River Flower Moon Night: Set of 2 Volumes

Chapter 14
"Wait a minute, we agreed yesterday to redeem Miss Chen Xing, please go and report."

"Shen, Miss Chen Xing, you two really want to redeem her body?"

"That's right." Fei Xiao pushed the door open and walked in, with a haughty demeanor, the boy didn't dare to stop her, and followed behind with his hands down.

Only Wang Zijin was left wondering, didn't he attend the funeral?How did it become a ransom for Shen Xing?

Fei Xiao seemed to be very familiar with the road, she took the lead, turned three times and walked to the door of a room. The room was decorated warmly and gorgeously.

There were several women's voices in the room, as if they were arguing about something, and one of the women's voices was sharp and piercing, it was the madam I met last night.

Fei Xiao and Prince pushed the door open, and the women inside saw them with terrified expressions on their faces.

"Could it be hell?" Wang Zijin said with a smile, "We came today to redeem Shen Xing."

As soon as these words came out, the women became even more frightened. Pointing to the big carved bed in the room, they said, "Is it her that you want to redeem? If so, take her away quickly, don't make a fuss about it."

The prince looked into the bed and saw that the curtains were falling heavily, and a strand of black hair slipped out of the window, dancing in the morning wind.

He stretched out his hand and saw a mummy lying in the brocade quilt of the big bed.There were only two black holes left in the eyes of the corpse, there was no flesh on the cheeks, and the light yellow dressing gown was gorgeous and exquisite, but it made it even more hideous.

Wang Zijin was so frightened that he fell to the ground, "I, what I want to redeem is Shen Xing, not this mummy..."

"That's right, this is Miss Chen Xing. I don't know what happened last night, but she turned into this overnight. My son, take her away as soon as possible, don't let outsiders know about it, and disturb our business." " The madam said anxiously, obviously very troubled by Shen Xing's death.

What?This is Shen Xing, who was singing and dancing last night, with a peachy face, how did he become like this overnight?

Shen Xing's innocent smiling face appeared in front of him. Although he knew that she was a different kind, he sincerely hoped that she would be happy.But in a blink of an eye, the beauty passed away, leaving only a dry bone for him, what should he do?Could it be that the beauty is so young, so young in an instant?The more he thought about it, the more sad he became, and tears flowed out in a daze.

"Zi Jin, don't be sad, let's take Miss Shen Xing back to bury her!"

"Bury, yes, that's for sure." Most of the people in the brothel were snobbish, and couldn't leave Shen Xing's dead bones here.With tears in his eyes, he sat up, quickly wrapped up the dead bone with a brocade quilt, and carried it away.

Fei Xiao cupped her hands and said to the bustard: "Thank you for your help, but my brother has a deep affection for Shen Xing, and even the dead bones hope to bring it back."

"No thanks, you guys hurry up, don't say anything, let's just say that the oiran Shen Xing has been married away. This child wants to leave here even in his dreams, and marry a good man, so it's a matter of her mind... "

The madam seemed to be moved by Wang Zijin's deep emotion, and she wiped her tears again and again.After Wang Zijin heard this, his nose felt sour, and tears poured out again, he hurriedly carried Shen Xing and went downstairs.

Fei Xiao followed behind him, there was still a smile on her red lips, he had long been used to this cold look.He knew that everyone that Fei Xiao saw was a dry bone, and in his eyes, death was no different from life.

The morning sun in the sky has not yet fully risen, Wang Zijin strode in the corridor of the peony garden with Shen Xing's skeleton in his arms, the wind blew up the silk, and brought out a strand of hair, which brushed on Wang Zijin's face, leaving a strand of hair on his face. Sweet and fragrant.

The girl's pretty face and sweet smile like a spring flower flashed before his eyes one by one.He looked up at the gray-blue sky, tears welling up in his eyes.

Shen Xing, Shen Xing, when you were alive, so many people applauded you and fell in love with your beauty, but now I am the only one who shed tears for you.

The carved beams and painted buildings of the peony garden, the mirror-like lake, seem to have lost their color because of the death of this beautiful girl.It seems that someone's plaintive chant is still echoing in the wind: the flowing water falls and the flowers fall, and the spring is gone, heaven and earth.

Wang Zijin wiped his tears all the way, walked out of Huajie and didn't go back to the inn, and hurriedly turned at an intersection.

"Zi Jin, where are you going?" Fei Xiao hurriedly grabbed him.

"When I came here, I saw a coffin shop around the corner. I'll go and order a good birthday coffin for her." Prince Jin answered with his eyes swollen from crying, like two funny peaches, wiping away his tears.

"Zi Jin, let's go back to the inn, I'll give you back a lively Chen Xing." Seeing his distressed appearance, Fei Xiao couldn't help laughing.

"You're still laughing, and you're making me happy again." Wang Zijin cried even more sadly.

"When did I lie to you?"

"Is this true?"

"Of course, come with me."

Immediately, he was ecstatic, and following the figure in the crimson white dress, he quickened his pace and walked towards the inn.The wind blew away the cloud-like brocade quilt, revealing Shen Xing's shriveled and collapsed face, no matter how you looked at it, it was a dry bone that had been dead for many years.

I don't know how capable Fei Xiao is to turn this horrible mummy into a beauty?
"Quickly tell me, how can I bring her back to life?" Back at the inn, Wang Zijin put Shen Xing's body on the bed and asked eagerly.

"Hee hee, in fact, I went to fetch her soul last night, so that she would be no different from a dead person, so we can take her away without spending any money."

"You are so smart, Feixiao, and then we will put her soul back, and she will be able to come back from the dead." Wang Zijin was immediately elated.

However, Fei Xiao's face showed embarrassment, "But, something went wrong..."

"Mistake? What's wrong?" The flower in the prince's heart only half-bloomed and withered, and an ominous premonition gradually rose.

"If it were an ordinary woman, her soul would be the same as when she was alive. If you look at her face again, how long has it been since she died?"

The prince saw that the flesh on the face of the corpse was dry, and there were only two black holes left in the eyes. He hesitated and replied, "Ten years at least."

"That's why it's so tricky. She has been dead for more than ten years, and her current appearance is her true face."

"Then is there any way to make her return to her original form?"

"This is more difficult. Her soul has returned to her body. If she has to find a way to restore it, that would be bad."

"What's so bad about returning to the original state?" Wang Zijin became more and more puzzled.

"She is a mummy, how can she grow flesh? And her current body is not her real body, so there is only one way to grow flesh."

"Difficult, could it be..." Wang Zijin couldn't help thinking of the morning when he was going to take the exam, Shen Xing was blushed all over, and his face was almost like this, the blood on his hand was still deeply imprinted in his mind.

There is already something about to break out of the cocoon, but he is unwilling and afraid to face it.

"Zijin, that's right! It's just eating meat and drinking blood. She will grow skin and flesh after being nourished by the blood. She has been living on this for many years, but she hasn't even realized it yet."

"Stop talking!" Wang Zijin put his head in his hands and couldn't help crying, "Shall we just let her die? What's the point of her living like this? It's just suffering."

But Fei Xiao shook her head and said: "That's impossible, I promised her last night that I would let her live freely, how can I break my promise?" He took out a talisman from his bosom and pasted it on Shen Xing On the forehead, there were words in his mouth, and the mummy sat up slowly as if alive, and got out of the bed.

Wang Zijin was stunned, seeing Shen Xing's corpse walking towards the door, he hurriedly stopped her.

"Don't go out, how do you go out like this?" He said with tears on his face.

"Zi Jin, she's going to try to grow skin and flesh now, don't stop her, she will come back when she turns into a human." Fei Xiao patted his shoulder and said softly.

Wang Zijin looked at the withered bones covered with gorgeous silk, and slowly opened the door and walked out, teary-eyed.

Feixiao stretched out a hand, shielded his eyes, and said softly: "Zijin, don't look at Zijin. You have to forget this situation, you just need to remember her beauty and goodness." .”

His hands were cold and damp, with a scent of grass, like a ray of wind in summer.

Wang Zijin's tears burst out of his eyes uncontrollably, he didn't understand, why no matter whether it is a human or a demon, they have to bear so much pain?
The bright yellow figure in my mind turned around, and she was no longer a mummy, but a charming young girl.

The girl looked at him, smiling like a flower.

Two hours later, the sky was bright and Prince Jinku was sitting by the bed with tears all over his face.

Fei Xiao came over suddenly and pushed his shoulder, "Zi Jin, Shen Xing is coming back soon."

"How do you know?" Wang Zijin hastily wiped away his tears and jumped off the bed.

"Her soul has stayed here with me, and I can sense where she is." Fei Xiao pursed her lips and said softly, "If you really want to be with her, go downstairs and wait for her. What happened."

Wang Zijin quickly ran downstairs with disheveled hair and saw that on the long street in Tokyo City, shops were opening one after another, and several vendors came out to sell their goods. The city was like an old man slowly waking up from sleep.

At the end of the long street, I saw a red dot approaching slowly from far to near, as if someone had held a wonderful pen and added a little cinnabar to the gray street scene.

It was the graceful beauty, the shining beauty, the peerless beauty, Wang Zijin watched the beauty approaching him, and felt mixed feelings in his heart, soul-stirring.

For a moment, I didn't know whether to be happy or sad for this beauty.

Seeing Wang Zijin waiting for her outside the inn door, Shen Xing immediately threw himself into his arms, and murmured: "It really is you, it really is you..."

Wang Zijin felt that the body in his arms was slender and soft, and the fragrance lingered in his nostrils. Who would have thought that this warm, fragrant and nephrite girl was a mummy?

"Really what is it?" Wang Zijin asked, holding back tears.

Shen Xing lay in his arms, and said softly: "At the beginning of the year, the spectator said that this year, a noble person would take me away from the place of fireworks. When you caught my bouquet, I was thinking, would you Could it be this idiot?" She said and raised her head, "Looking at it now, it really is you, I'm really happy, thank you for giving me such happiness."

Wang Zijin looked at her squint eyes, and caressingly brushed the hair on her forehead, "I promise you, I will bring you more happiness." He felt that the softness in his heart had been touched.

In the guest room on the second floor, Fei Xiao was dressed in white and stood at the window looking at the two people who were embracing each other, she couldn't help shaking her head.Should he tell Zijin that Shen Xing fell in love with him at first sight because of his unique blood that attracts monsters?But in the end he sighed a long time and put down the bamboo curtain.

There is love and infatuation in life, this hatred has nothing to do with the wind and the moon, this love between men and women is originally your love and my wish, why should he stop it?
When Shen Xing saw Fei Xiao upstairs, he thanked him very politely, thanking him for using his wonderful skills to lead her away from the place of fireworks.

Fei Xiao couldn't bear the breath on her body, she only said a few words, and left in a hurry.

"I'm going to book another room now, you should change into clean clothes first."

"Hey, how do you know that my clothes are dirty? I always get my clothes dirty for no reason. I don't know how to do it. I just found out that my clothes seem to be dirty again."

Wang Zijin found a clean robe from the luggage for her to put on temporarily, and threw her clothes into the wooden bucket used for bathing, and saw that the water in the wooden bucket was dizzy round and round. Red, he hurriedly turned his head away, afraid that the blood would make him have more associations.

When he returned to the room again, he saw that Shen Xing had finished washing, and was sitting in front of the dressing table and doing makeup in front of the mirror.The rising morning light shone on her delicate and white face, shining like a pearl, so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off it.

"What is the girl's future plan?"

Shen Xing tilted his head, nonchalantly said: "What else can I do? I will follow you."

"Are you sure you want to come with me? I'm just a scholar, and I don't have much money." Wang Zijin lowered his eyes guiltily. will complain.

"Don't you want to be with me?" Shen Xing lowered his head slightly and squeezed the comb tightly, as if very sad.

"No! Of course not!" Wang Zijin argued hastily.

"Then do you think I was born in a brothel?" Shen Xing cried again, "I told myself before that I would marry whoever brought me out, but now you despise me."

Wang Zijin thought to himself: You are not only born in a brothel, I knew you were a female ghost and never disliked you, he hurriedly explained: "No, the girl misunderstood."

"That is to say, you will marry me?" Shen Xing immediately raised his head happily, his eyes filled with happiness.

He was already full of admiration for Shen Xing, but seeing that she really liked him, he nodded immediately.

"Great, I'm going to be a bride too, and I'm going to wear a red wedding dress and a phoenix coronet." She watched the prince enter, and tears slipped out, "I also have a day to get married, I can't even dream of it... ..."

The prince was so happy to see her, his nose was sour, and he couldn't help holding her in his arms.Anyway, Fei Xiao said that her life expectancy is not long, at worst, she can spend a few years with her.

The two were talking, but they saw the door was pushed open, and it was the inn's servant who had prepared the guest room for Shen Xing.Only then did Shen Xing wipe away his tears, and reluctantly went to his room to rest.

It was night, Wang Zijin and Fei Xiao were drinking and eating chicken under the lamp.

"You really want to marry her?" Fei Xiao asked.

"Yeah, she is so pitiful, what can I do!" Wang Zijin sighed and bit the chicken leg.

It was rare for Fei Xiao to put on a pretty face, and squinted at him, "You have to think carefully, she has been dead for many years, marrying her will only shorten your lifespan."

Wang Zijin didn't take it seriously, "Let's keep it short. It's enough to make her happy for a few days. Besides, I think she really likes me. If she can win the heart of a beautiful woman, what more can I ask for?"

Fei Xiao looked at his fair and gentle face, as if looking at a chicken that was about to be eaten, and couldn't help shaking her head and sighing.

At noon the next day, the prince went in and asked Shen Xing to go out for a walk, but saw that the robe lent to her yesterday was stained with blood again, knowing that she must have gone out to look for food last night, he couldn't help secretly sad.

And Shen Xing was lying on the bed, stretching out a lotus arm, hugging the brocade quilt, sleeping soundly, obviously not aware of everything.

"Get up, let's go shopping for floral clothes together." Wang Zijin wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and forced her to get up with a forced smile.

Shen Xing was extremely happy, he hurriedly got up and changed his clothes to freshen up, it seemed that he couldn't wait to go out.

Under the gorgeous autumn sun, the three of them stood together in the downtown area of ​​Tokyo, immediately attracting everyone's attention.One of Fei Xiao and Shen Xing is more beautiful than Pan An, and the other is as beautiful as a fairy, just like a wonderful person who walked out of a painting.

Shen Xing didn't take it seriously, he probably saw a lot of amazed eyes in the peony garden, and only cared about looking at the things at the roadside stalls.On the contrary, Fei Xiao was extremely narcissistic, dangling around with the folding fan, changing more than a dozen positions within a quarter of an hour, and finally it was Wang Zijin who pulled him away.

As soon as these two people arrived at Wasi, they immediately became two living treasures, entering any shop, and Wang Zijin wished he had three heads and six arms to catch them.

After Shen Xing bought all the necessary items, it was already noon, and Fei Xiao made a fuss about going to eat chicken again.

"Huh? Although Mr. Hu is proud and indifferent, he really likes to eat chicken." Shen Xing asked in a low voice.

"Yeah, this may be his only favorite." When Wang Zijin mentioned chicken, his voice choked up.Since getting to know Fei Xiao, he has never eaten any other meat.

Shen Xing winked at Feixiao playfully, "Young Master Hu, I wonder if you have heard of the 'crispy roast chicken' from the Western Regions?"

When Fei Xiao heard it, a bright light appeared in her eyes, and Wang Zijin's face was dark, dick, dick, dick again!If there is an afterlife, he really hopes that there will be no more chickens in this world.

"Look at what else you haven't bought. We've got everything ready. We'll set off in two days." When the "crispy roast chicken" turned into a pile of bones, Wang Zijin said while sitting in Hu Shang's wine shop.

"Departure? Where are you going?" Shen Xing looked surprised, "Don't we stay in Tokyo?"

"Of course I'm going back to my hometown. I still have to discuss with my mother how to marry you." Wang Zijin's face flushed red, seeing Fei Xiao buried her head in the chicken and ignoring him, the embarrassment eased a little.
