[Forget Envy] Fate can't be said

Chapter 8 [Wang Xian] Fate cannot be said⑧

After leaving You's house, Wei Wuxian searched and asked all the way, seeing many people surrounded not far away, he hurriedly squeezed through the crowd, walked up to Lan Wangji, and whispered, "What's going on."

Lan Wangji looked at the blood-covered girl lying on the ground, and said, "Tianhe."

"Is she the one from the teahouse yesterday?" Wei Wuxian asked in surprise.

Seeing him coming, You Qinglie walked over and said, "It can be regarded as coming."

Wei Wuxian ignored him, and squatted down to check Tianhe's cause of death.Because the face was destroyed, the eyeballs were removed, the cheekbones collapsed, and the human figure was lost, so the original appearance could not be seen at all.

"Where did you find it?" Wei Wuxian asked Lan Wangji behind him.

You Qinglie spread out his hands, as if he didn't need him, and walked over knowingly to continue to comfort Aunt Ruan.

Seeing You Qinglie standing aside from the corner of his eye, he stood up and followed Lan Wangji into the house.There were no traces of fighting in the house, and the tables, desks and beds were neatly arranged.Thoughtfully, he walked to the door, pointed to Tian He and said to Lan's disciple, "Bring her in."

The disciples of the Lan family looked at each other, why did they just lift it out, and they were about to lift it back again, but Mr. Hanguang didn't say anything, and raised his hands.

"Stop, stop." You Qinglie stepped forward to stop, "Our rules here, the dead can't go back and carry them back, come and carry them directly to the sacrificial hall."

"Mayor You, it's not that I didn't remind you, if Tianhe is carried to the sacrificial hall, he won't be able to say anything." Wei Wuxian said slowly, leaning on the door frame with his arms folded.

"Tianhe can't say anything now." You Qinglie frowned.

"Don't talk about those useless things if you are helpless, bring them in, and I will let her speak." Seeing that You Qinglie did not back down at all, he added: "If you delay, there is nothing I can do."

"Listen to him."

The voice came from behind You Qinglie, and Wei Wuxian's eyes fell on Bai Ying, it was rare for the high priest to say a word, so he hurriedly said, "My lord priest has already said it, hurry up and bring it in."

"Aying!" You Qinglie said anxiously.

Bai Ying ignored it, and only said: "Lift."

So everyone joined hands one after another, and carried Tianhe back as Wei Wuxian ordered, and returned to his original position.

"Then let's all go out now," Wei Wuxian said with a smile.

"What?" Before You Qinglie could react, the members of the Lan family retreated one after another, without a single complaint.

Wei Wuxian didn't expect his words to be so easy to use, and all the brats said it.

You Qinglie was still standing there motionless and wanted to continue to argue, but the white shadow beside him came straight out, so he had no choice but to chase after him.

Wei Wuxian looked at the backs of the two going out and asked, "Is it You Qinglie who invited you here?"

"Ah."

"When he first came here, he was quite enthusiastic. After getting along with him for a few days, why do I feel that Bai Ying trusts us more?"

"What are you going to do?" Lan Wangji didn't answer, and was more concerned about what he was going to do.

Wei Wuxian turned to look at him with a smile on his face, and asked back, "Why doesn't Second Master Lan go out?"

Lan Wangji took a deep look at him and started to walk out.Wei Wuxian didn't intend to let him go out at first, but the conversation was so rushed, seeing that he really went out, he still didn't know what to do.

"Well, Lan Zhan...huh?" Before he finished speaking, Lan Wangji walked to the door and closed it and came back again "Pfft, Lan Zhan, Lan Zhan, I suddenly realized that if you leave... oh, don't say it Yes, it's hypocritical. Come on, let's get started."

"What if I leave?" Lan Wangji approached.

"It's just... we cooperate very well. At the critical moment, if you are here, I feel quite at ease." Wei Wuxian squatted beside Tianhe, and got to the point: "Have you heard of empathy, Mr. Hanguang?"

"Empathy has both advantages and disadvantages, how sure are you?" Lan Wangji asked.

"After Tianhe's death, there was a lot of grievances. Lingpo refused to leave here. There must be unfulfilled wishes. The obsession is too deep. If you don't use it, it will be wasted. If you want to say sure, with Hanguang-jun sitting in charge, Hmm... seven to eight points." Wei Wuxian said with a smile.

"Seven to eight points?" Lan Wangji asked back with a frown.

"Seven or eight points are not satisfied, no one can do it except me."

"What's the variable?" Lan Wangji asked again.

"Empaths, it's easy to get in, but hard to get out. Wraiths are dangerous things after all. Just like what you said, the pros and cons are half and half, so someone needs to be supervised. If the situation is wrong, please wake me up."

"How to wake it up?" Lan Wangji asked.

Wei Wuxian thought for a while, then touched his waist subconsciously, there was nothing there, and then he realized later: "I forgot, Qingxinling was lost a long time ago."

"Pure heart bell?"

"Well, it's such a big silver bell." Wei WuXian gestured at the size, pondered for a while, and then suggested: "It's fine if HanGuang-Jun can blow petitions."

Lan Wangji glanced at the black flute pinned to his waist and shook his head, took out the Qiankun bag from his bosom, searched carefully, and after a while, a silver bell really appeared.Wei Wuxian took it in disbelief, and said, "It's really strange, why do you have something about Yunmeng."

"Pick it up."

If he hadn't known Hanguang-Jun well, he would have almost thought it was stolen.

"Okay, with it, we're absolutely sure of success." He smiled and put the Qingxin Bell back in Lan Wangji's hand, sat cross-legged on the ground, and continued: "Let's start."

"Be careful," Lan Wangji instructed.

Wei Wuxian smiled at him and closed his eyes. When he opened his eyes, his eyes were pitch black, and he couldn't stretch his legs because of the cramped surroundings, so he could only curl up in his body, bowed his head and hugged his knees.

Why can't I see anything?

Maintaining the same posture for a cup of tea made Wei Wuxian extremely depressed.People always have endless fantasies about the darkness, which stems from the deep fear of uncertainty in their hearts, especially in an extremely small and confined space, where they don't know where they are, and they are always on guard and their spirits are highly tense.

Finally, Tianhe made a movement, raised her hand upwards, supported the wooden cover, moved aside, poked her head out to look around.

A pretty little girl is hiding in an empty wine vat, and there are dozens of others around, like a wine cellar.Wei Wuxian was able to breathe now, knowing where he was.

But she didn't seem to want to go out, she just took a look and hid back again.Wei Wuxian guessed suspiciously that she might be hiding from people, but he didn't feel the tension of fear of being discovered at all, it was like playing hide-and-seek...

The ear-piercing sound of decay from the wooden steps made the little girl startled, and quickly closed the lid, leaving a small gap.

When removing the cover, Wei Wuxian glanced quickly with sharp eyes, and two people came down.

Recalling the figure carefully, it looks like two teenagers.

They didn't speak, and could vaguely hear the sound of cloth rubbing against each other, and after a while there were a few subdued gasps.

Wei Wuxian was really curious about what they were doing, if there was a fight, there shouldn't be such a small movement, thinking that the little girl would come here, so he stopped peeking, so that he would know who those two were.

Just finished muttering in his heart here, Tian He seems to have heard his thoughts, and she stretched out on her stomach.

The surrounding light was dim, barely supported by an oil lamp, Wei Wuxian hurriedly squinted his eyes, and observed the two people stacked together not far away, it was okay not to look at it, although it was a back view, but he knew what he was doing.

After all, I haven't experienced it myself, and I'm a little slow to hear the sound, but fortunately, I have read countless pictures, and I can understand it immediately at a glance.

Wei Wuxian turned his eyes away and didn't look at it, but the voice seemed to be magnified countless times and drilled into his ears.It's even more embarrassing to stay in the cramped wine tank now, who knew I came to see this...

After waiting for a while, when there was finally no movement, the two people over there began to chat a little again, their voices were too low, not as loud as the panting just now.

Wei Wuxian was depressed, and in the dim light, he took a look at the little girl's hand, which was only about ten years old.

It's too early to eat...

It took him more than 20 years to see the truth, and it was thanks to her.

The two teenagers left without staying for a while, and Tian He came out of the wine tank when the door of the wine cellar was closed again, and quickly chased after him.

After leaving the wine cellar, he turned a few alleys, but there was still no one in sight. Just when he thought she was lost, he suddenly stopped at the corner, hidden in the shadow of the eaves, and looked into the distance.

Wei Wuxian knew this place, it was You Zhai.

The two teenagers hugged each other for a while in the deep alley, before one of them reluctantly went in.

And the other boy stood in the deep alley for a long time. When he stepped out of the shadows and stood under the moonlight, his white clothes glowed faintly in the dark night.

It's Shiro.

Although it looks like fifteen or sixteen, but every move is his.

Wei Wuxian suddenly remembered the rumor that Tianhe liked Priest Bai. Judging from how she was so familiar with the road from the wine cellar to You's house, it shouldn't be the first time for them.

Seeing Bai Ying going further and further away, I thought the little girl would continue to chase, so I just took the opportunity to continue observing, but Tian He went home directly.

This made Wei Wuxian puzzled. A girl should not be so calm when she knows that the person she likes is having an affair with another man, unless she is plotting something, otherwise the explanation will not make sense.

When I got home, it was already ugly.Smearing the door, he was not in a hurry to sleep, quietly lit a candle, and wrote a note with a pen.It recorded the exact time and place, and it was obvious who to report to. After writing, the candle was blown out before the pen was put down.Wei Wuxian's eyes suddenly went dark, and he couldn't see where she put it, and when he got used to it, he was gone.

When the scene changed, Tianhe grew a little taller, it should look like a few years later.She hid in the house all day long, and Wei Wuxian couldn't get any useful news, so he could only listen to Aunt Ruan's exclamation while eating.

From a few words, he probably knew that a son of You's family had died, Wei Wuxian couldn't help but think of the young man who had a tryst with Bai Ying late at night, wasn't he also belonged to You Zhai.Every time she talked about Mr. You, she would eat in silence and never answer, coming and going, from her evasive attitude, Wei Wuxian probably guessed what she did...

A few days later, she went out again as if nothing had happened. The town was still lively. When the idlers in the teahouse saw her, they greeted her warmly and invited her to sit at the same table, which showed that she was a regular customer.

"In my opinion, unless we have another mayor, the position of mayor will be confirmed."

"What are you going to decide? It's useless if the priest doesn't agree."

"The rule is such a rule, but the priest does not agree, and there is no one else."

"That's true. I heard that the next priest, Bai Ying, prefers the one buried in the earth to be the mayor. When he comes back, it may be unclear what the You family will be struggling with."

"Just worry about it, whoever becomes the mayor has nothing to do with us."

"I don't think it's too pitiful for me to die unknown at such a young age. The priest is not here, and I don't know where the mayor found an old woman to sacrifice to Songwen."

Wei Wuxian listened intently. It turned out that he killed his sweetheart while Bai Ying was away. He guessed that the note written by Tianhe must have been addressed to someone from the You family. The most likely suspect was the next generation. The mayor is gone.

Isn't that You Qinglie, he's not too old right now.

This memory is mixed with too many trivial matters and trivial people's opinions. It doesn't matter what other people think or think. The important thing is that Tian He didn't answer the conversation from the beginning to the end, so she couldn't know what she was thinking.But generally speaking, it shouldn't be irrelevant, after all, Tianhe can't let go of every memory.Wei Wuxian didn't dare to take it lightly, silently remembering the faces and words of the people present in his mind.

The scene changed again, Tianhe was throwing a silk handkerchief on the second floor of the teahouse, covering her face with a smile and looking at the men in white on the street.

"Tianhe, why is it you again, this time you didn't wrap the bracelet and throw it down?"

The familiar conversation sounded like an alarm bell in Wei Wuxian's mind, Tian He hurriedly packed up and ran downstairs, and Wei Wuxian saw himself eavesdropping next door.

"Bai... Priest Bai." Tianhe said shyly.

"Priest Huanbai, how did I hear that you call Aying Brother Ying in private?" You Qinglie leaned closer and said with his hands behind his back.

Tianhe took a half step back at the beginning, which was enough to prove his attitude, and continued to smile and said to Bai Ying: "I...I swear that I have no disrespect towards the priest."

"En." After Bai Ying answered, he walked forward alone.

The girl beside Tianhe whispered, "Oh my God, Priest Bai has seen you."

But Tianhe was stunned in place, sweetly unable to slow down, and obsessively followed behind Bai Ying, following all the way until he could no longer follow.

"Tianhe, are you going back to the teahouse?" You Qinglie asked.

"No, go home." The four words were clear and neat.After speaking, he lifted his legs and left, without any intention of chatting.

"He won't marry you, why don't you marry early, have a child, and raise it well, in case A Ying likes it, and become the next priest, wouldn't it be closer to throwing the handkerchief than you are now?"

Tianhe didn't turn her head back, she stirred the handkerchief with her fingers, and said, "Let the mayor worry about it, let's talk about it later,"

"I'm here for your own good."

After Tianhe listened, she left without replying.

At night, because Bai Ying glanced at him at the door of the teahouse during the day, the little girl was so excited that she couldn't sleep, and she tossed and tossed until midnight.Wei Wuxian put all his energy into it, waiting to see the true face of the murderer.

The night before dawn is silent, as if everything is quietly waiting for a ray of morning light to break the silence.In the short time before dawn, the sky and the earth were dark, and Tianhe suddenly went to dig his eyes with his hands like a nightmare, put his head against the wall, and kept slamming it, as if he didn't know the pain.

Wei Wuxian resisted as if empathizing with him, but his body didn't listen at all.Desperately calling her name, hoping she would wake up, but he should be the one who needs to wake up, because he forgot that he was just a spectator and could not change anything.

The familiar silver bells sounded in my ears, and something happened too fast.

Suicide without warning, he doesn't believe it!

"Wei Ying!"

Hearing a familiar voice, he probably came back.The things that come into view are blurred, and the whole body leans against a strong chest like a collapse.Looking up, Lan Wangji was looking at him with a frown and concern, pressing his wrist.

Seeing him look up, Lan Wangji immediately withdrew his hand, leaving a red mark on his wrist.

"Sorry." Lan Wangji said.

Wei Wuxian stood up slowly, rubbing his wrists to signal not to worry.After not touching the wraith for a long time, the resentment in his body is ready to explode.

Lan Wangji noticed something was wrong with him, and hurriedly said, "Wei Ying, adjust your breath and calm your breath."

"Leave me alone." He patted Lan Wangji's hand away, his tone extremely cold.

I don't know if he had hallucinations, he suppressed himself against the wall, and said hysterically: "Come if you want, no one can survive the mass grave today."

"Wei Ying!" He pushed his back against the wall, but found that his legs were weak, his dark eyes were dull, his eyes were loose, and he couldn't recognize who he was at all.

He summoned Wangjiqin, but Wei Wuxian dodges and escapes by mistake.Without even thinking about it, Lan Wangji reached out to grab it subconsciously, and only tore off a corner of the sleeve.

There was a burst of disciples' voices outside the room, Lan Wangji chased him out, and ordered, "Don't follow."

When Wei WuXian appeared in the cave, Wen Ning had just laid out the hay, and when he heard the movement, he was filled with joy, and said, "Why is the young master here?"

When I got closer, I realized that something was wrong with him, and called softly, "Master?"

Looking at the person in front of him with empty eyes, Wei Wuxian reluctantly recognized, "Wen Ning?"

"My lord, what's wrong with you? Is...you can't suppress your resentment again?" Wen Ning asked worriedly.

"Well, it's okay, I've got an old problem, stay away." Wei Wuxian pushed him away, and fell headfirst on the haystack, arms trembling in his arms, suppressing his restless resentment, "Go out and watch."

"Son..."

"go!"

In the haze, a black figure walked out, and he was relieved.He hugged the dry grass under his body tightly, and closed his eyes.

A period of lethargy and a period of sobriety, tormenting the mind.In the dream, he repeatedly experienced the scenes of encirclement and suppression, and the sound of killing shook the sky. He tried his best every time, and the result was the same every time. He could only watch helplessly. cold.

He was vaguely looking forward to a new start, but also afraid of getting the same ending. He prayed for even one person, even if he could save A Yuan...A Yuan?Yes, there is also A Yuan, as long as he hides and does not make a sound, he will be safe.

Suddenly, the lyre sounded, and I felt peace in my heart, and every syllable followed the melodious tune to the bottom of my heart, smoothing the depression, driving away the haze, and moistening things silently.

Looking up, there are many school uniforms in hemp and mourning, but they all play "Exorcism Song".

Heh, they all thought he was a demon.

If he can protect one person by becoming a demon, he will not hesitate, even if he burns himself in flames, he will return home with his bones burned.

The elegant sound of the zither was still in his ears and suddenly became heavier. He only played one piece without changing the sound of the zither, slowly dissipating the hostility accumulated in his heart.

It wasn't until the nightmare stopped repeating and the sound of beating and killing stopped in his ears that Wei Wuxian suddenly remembered that the endless sound of the piano was so familiar...
