no soul

On the second day, Lin Hong had promised to visit the small mountain village where the man in black lived, but he missed the appointment—wrapped in a quilt, Duan Yu couldn't wake him up.

Obviously, her breathing is steady, her expression is serene, her heartbeat is also normal, and she is alive and well, but she just can't wake up.

When the emperor heard about it, he hurriedly sent an imperial doctor to see Lin Hong.

The old imperial doctor pinched his beard, with a dignified expression, felt his pulse, and opened his eyelids to check. He also used acupuncture and studied for a long time.

Finally shook his head: "Forgive me for my lack of talent and learning."

Not to mention the imperial doctor, even the evil doctor Yu Tian was helpless.

"Try it with Gu, fight poison with poison."

When she took out those terrifying bugs, Duan Yu's face turned pale with fright, "Don't!"

Gu worms have sequelae.

After arguing for a long time and fighting with reason, under the protection of Duan Yu, the sleeping Lin Hong escaped by luck.

"Brother Lin, what's going on?" Duan Yu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead in fear.

Yu Tian also said in a bad mood: "I don't know if you are not allowed to use Gu. We can only wait, maybe he will wake up by himself."

She put away the Gu worms, but also frowned, feeling a little undecided.

After hearing the feedback from the imperial doctor, the emperor felt that Immortal Lin was cultivating and understanding how to make the Yin soldiers surrender.It's just that this way of practicing is very special, and he is not too worried.

During the period, Dai Xuchen also came to visit and brought some tonics along the way.

Lin Hong didn't expect that he was wrapped in a quilt and slept, but was visited one by one by everyone.

——Of course he couldn't think of it, he was intoxicated with tenderness.

Duan Yu was worried that he was hungry, so he would not swallow food when he was fed, and he would not be able to feed the tonic even when it was delivered.

"Leave it alone, you won't die of starvation for a day." Yu Tian also said.

"Could it be that the ghost did something to Brother Lin last night? He won't be unable to wake up, right?" Duan Yu was dying of anxiety.

"Then who knows? - Can you shut up!" Yu Tian was also made even more irritable by him.

Lin Hong woke up in the early morning of the next day. The temperature was cold and cold in winter mornings. The sky was not fully lit yet, and the sky was filled with light blue light, which was as clear as seeing things through glass, making everything seem real and illusory.

Lin Hong stared at Fangliang for a long time, unable to regain his composure.

When he woke up, he found that Nan Keyimeng's sense of loss was pulling him violently, wanting to strip his soul from his body, expose him to the severe cold, let the insects corrode him, and let the beasts bite him.

God wants to make such a joke for him, watching him struggle in pain.

Falling from the Bei Que Pearl Palace into the abyss of unforeseen circumstances.

Became alone again.

Lin Hong is still not sure what the situation of Wan Guchuan is, whether the dream is real or not—or in other words, whether the Wan Guchuan in the dream is real or not, whether it is real or illusory.

In the dream, as long as he asked about this matter, Wan Guchuan would remain silent, or coax him with soft words, or make him unable to continue thinking in ways that he couldn't resist...

Wan Guchuan is really bad.

Lin Hong got out of bed angrily, but felt that his hands and feet were weak. He managed to hold on to the table next to him to stabilize his figure and did not directly kneel down on the ground. Ding Dong" collided and almost fell down.

Duan Yu in the back room heard the movement and ran over to see him without his shoes on, "Brother Lin! You're awake!"

"What? I slept all day?" Lin Hong was surprised. He thought it was just a night's dream.

All day... No wonder I feel weak in my hands and feet.

Wan Guchuan said that the whole day is really the whole day.

Lin Hong was restless.If this is the case, then the reality of what happened in the dream is a bit more real. It is impossible for him to sleep all day naturally, and it must be Wan Guchuan's doing.

Wan Guchuan did not know how to appear in his dream, playing tricks and keeping the matter secret.

Can't see the entity, can shuttle in dreams, can make him sleep all day long... such a form of existence...

Cold sweat broke out on Lin Hong's back, the hand holding the teacup was shaking, and the tea water rippled in circles.

He looked at his reflection in the tea and forced himself to calm down.

No, maybe this is just the weirdness of this ghost square, which made Wan Guchuan change the way of existence, but in this ghost square, Wan Guchuan will be like this, it is the problem of this ghost square, and it can't explain anything.

What Lin Hong has to do now is to solve the problem as soon as possible, go out from this ghost place, find Wan Guchuan in this world, and everything will be solved easily.

This is it.

Lin Hong tried to divert his attention. He asked Duan Yu and Yu Tianyi if the three skinless ghosts had appeared during his coma, and if there were other strange things happening.

"No." During this period, the two of them were afraid that something might happen to him, so they didn't go out, they kept guarding him, and didn't encounter any strange things.

And the three skinless ghosts never appeared again, as if the ghosts were frightened that night and dared not come again.

When the emperor heard that Lin Hong had woken up, he specially sent someone to bring him a tonic and medicinal diet. It was not so much worried about his body that he would have to supplement it, it was better to say that it was some jade - the emperor couldn't bear it because of the Yin soldiers. Waiting for his reply.

Lin Hong followed his wishes and asked the eunuch to send a message back: "I have gained a lot from practicing in my dream for a day, and today I will go to the mountain to relieve Your Majesty's worries."

The emperor was overjoyed when he heard this, convinced him, and immediately gave him a large reward in advance, and sent a horse-drawn chariot and troops to serve him.

——Who would know that Lin Hong was actually hanging out with some annoying guy in his dream.

Duan Yu looked at the small box of bright jewels sent by the emperor entrusted by the eunuch, and he was very ashamed, "Brother Lin, you really have a talent for bluffing and deceiving."

Yu Tian rarely agrees with others, this time she must agree.

Lin Hong was in a bad mood and didn't bother to talk to them.

Dai Xuchen stood tall beside the carriage, still dressed in black and carrying a long sword.

He saw Lin Hong walking out of the courtyard, with a gentle smile on his handsome face, really as warm as his name, "Master Lin, how are you?"

"Very good, thanks to General Dai's concern." Lin Hong forced a smile.

"Master Lin seems to be in a bad mood?" Dai Xuchen looked at Lin Hong with concern.

"No..." Before Lin Hong finished speaking, he felt someone behind him pushing him towards the carriage, as if urging him to leave quickly.

Lin Hong looked back, but there was no one behind him.

He squinted his eyes, made a strange mistake, and said to the empty back as if angry, "What are you pushing, I know how to go."

When a group of people saw him talking, their faces changed.

"Who...Who is who? Brother Lin, don't scare me..." Duan Yu's face turned pale.

Yu Tianyi and Dai Xuchen stared at him.

The soldiers who were close were also quietly squinting.

"..." Lin Hong raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows.Sooner or later, I will go crazy.

Duan Yu's heart was pounding, because there were outsiders around, he didn't dare to ask Lin Hong, fearing that he was pretending to be profound again.

Yu Tianyi didn't have such worries, and went straight to the point, "What's wrong with you?"

"Drowsy." Lin Hong said, "Don't worry about it."

Surrounded by soldiers and soldiers, the luxurious carriage shook the embroidered brocade curtain and slowly passed through the bustling market. Under the curious or envious eyes of passers-by, it went all the way to Yongsui Mountain.

The floating mist in the mountains is warm and emerald, and it looks extraordinarily lonely among all things withered, like an isolated island in the world, locking all the winter colors out of the mountains.

In the mountains, the wheels of the carriage rolled, the hooves of the horses clattered, and the footsteps of the soldiers clanged.

The general took the lead, and the soldiers followed closely behind with the carriage between them. The convoy was orderly, but the atmosphere inside the carriage was a bit bad...

In the past, Lin Hong liked to sit in the middle of the carriage, with his straight and long legs stretched out, and the cloak and hem of the clothes were spread all over the seat at random, as if he was afraid that others would crowd him.

But this time, for some reason, he sat neatly and deliberately made an empty seat, as if someone else would sit next to him.

At first, Duan Yu thought that Lin Hong reserved it for himself, and was afraid of offending him, so he lifted his robe and was about to sit down, but he pulled him away.

This……

Duan Yu and Yu Tian also sat across from him and stared at him, both of them looked like hell.

"Brother Lin, are you okay..." Duan Yu has been worried since he woke up, and now seeing his neurotic appearance is going to scare him away.

After all, there was no outsider in the car, but Lin Hong was still pretending to be a ghost.

"What can I do wrong? It's very good." Lin Hong said.

Duan Yu: "..." My temper has also become bigger...

Lin Hong was thinking about how to find the man wrapped in black—the difficulty was that the man was exactly like the emperor. These soldiers and generals would probably kneel down and salute to him on the spot when they saw him. The man and himself There is also some suspicion, there is no real emperor to testify on the spot, there may be some troubles...

So he had to dismiss these officers and soldiers.

The carriage was a little bumpy in the mountains, and it almost reached the place. The carriage couldn't go any further, and these officers and soldiers were really not needed.

"parking."

The convoy stopped obediently.

Lin Hong opened the curtain and got out of the car. He looked at the general who reined in his horse and turned back towards him, "General Dai, this matter is not trivial. I need to negotiate with the general of the Yin soldiers in person. It was mistaken for bringing so many soldiers and horses with me. Provocations are troublesome.”

"Understood." Dai Xuchen listened to his words and ordered the soldiers to wait in place.

All the soldiers answered "yes" in unison. Their voices echoed in the mountains, and the leaves trembled. It was a well-trained army.

"I'll just go with you." Dai Xuchen turned to Lin Hong and said.

?The general is going too?Lin Hong was stunned.

He went there, probably looking at the face of the man in black was not a good thing, even if he was alert enough not to mistake the emperor, there was no guarantee that he would report to the real emperor after returning, so Lin Hong's concealment plan also failed.

Lin Hong said: "General Dai, this trip is too dangerous, you and the soldiers should just stay here and wait for us."

Dai Xuchen shook his head lightly, "Then I'm going even more - Your Majesty has ordered me to personally protect Master Lin's safety."

"General Dai, don't worry. My little sister is very powerful. I won't be in danger." Lin Hong motioned to Yu Tianyi who was following behind.

Yu Tian also folded his arms, and frowned when he heard Lin Hong praise her.

"I hope Master Lin will not make things difficult." Dai Xuchen's attitude was very firm.

Lin Hong understood that personal protection was fake, and the emperor actually wanted the general to keep an eye on him.

Now that we've talked about this, Lin Hong has nothing to say, "Then there's General Laudai."

The soldiers were on standby, and Lin Hong, Duan Yu, and Dai Xuchen, led by Yu Tianyi, went to the small mountain village where the man lived.

The scenery in the mountains is pleasant, the water and trees are clear, and the birds are singing.

The climate in the mountains is still cold, but the scene is full of lush greenery, without the slightest bit of decline that winter should have. Instead, it is more vibrant and prosperous than spring.

Lin Hong didn't tell Dai Xuchen where they were going or what they were going to do, and Dai Xuchen didn't ask too much, but just dutifully acted as a guard and followed him.

Lin Hong was thinking, do all the generals in the prosperous world do these things?

Now that the war in the south of the Dazheng is over, the war is over, and there are other princes and generals guarding the border. If Wan Guchuan continues to serve as his general and Marquis Dingyuan, it will most likely be useless. It only acts as a deterrent, and it is easy to get involved in partisan battles.

It is estimated that Emperor Deming would not have the face to let him, a great general with great military exploits, do some miscellaneous things.

No wonder Wan Guchuan said that the court would not need him after this battle.

I don't need him anymore...

Lin Hong frowned at this thought.

Just as he was distracted, a person came from the end of the mountain road and among the greenery.

The person who came was a young man, tall and slender, he didn't seem to be afraid of the cold, he was dressed extremely thinly, neither a cloak nor a fur coat, and the simple and elegant white clothes were as light as snow blowing in the wind.

The face is like a crown jade, but there is no expression, the whole body is clear and cold, like a glacier passing through a bright emerald green.

Lin Hongfu is in his heart - this is the real Yin-Yang master "Lin Hong" in this world.

Shouldn't he live in another mountain? ——The one when I first came here.

I don't know what he is doing here.

Now that Lin Hong borrowed his identity and had to find clues from the emperor, it was impossible to justify his name at this juncture.

Say sorry in my heart, just pretend I didn't meet you.

As he approached, the man cast his cold eyes on Lin Hong, as if examining and observing.

When passing by, he spoke, his voice was as cold as his own, as if mixed with ice, "A shadow follows behind you."

Lin Hong paused and stopped.

The other three walked a few steps and saw Lin Hong stop, and they also stopped to look back at him, and then at that person.

The greenery in the mountains was covered with a tinge of coolness, trembling slightly in the cold wind, making a soft "rustling" sound.

Lin Hong looked at the back that was slowly going away, and his voice was a little cold, "What do you mean?"

"Oh," the man sneered, "literally."

He stopped and looked sideways at Lin Hong, his voice still had no warmth, "You'd better be careful, I've never seen such a ferocious ghost."

This sentence hit Lin Hong's head like a blow, and there was a "buzz" in Lin Hong's head. His previous faint feeling was magnified by this sentence, and he didn't even doubt its authenticity.The whole person was cold from head to toe, as if falling into an ice cave, a dull pain in his heart spread all over his body, and his breathing became heavier.

ghost?

Duan Yu also whispered, "What the hell?? Follow us??"

Lin Hong felt that at this moment he lost all five senses, and everything around him seemed to be separated from him by a thick layer of veil, becoming hazy, and he was completely ignorant of Lin Hong disappearing at the end of the road, just Stand still.

ghost?

ghost.

He chewed the word repeatedly in his heart, wanting to chew it up and grind it into ashes and swallow it in his stomach.

"But if you become a ghost, it must be the most vicious and wild ghost."

——The words that the speeding ghost recovered into a monk in Miaoguang Temple and said to Wan Guchuan before disappearing rang in his mind.

Cheng Jinjiu said that Wan Guchuan had killed thousands of enemies recently, and his aura was so strong that ghosts dare not look for him, and even dare not look for himself—but now he is in the ghost's place.

If Wan Guchuan died, would the grieving ghost dare to come to him?

Suddenly afraid of my own skinless ghost...

fluttering curtains...

The cloak that appeared beside him...

False dreams...

If Wan Guchuan turns into a ghost, can all these strange things be explained?

Ghost... But why is it a ghost?why?

Is Wan Guchuan following him a ghost?

ghost?

How did Wan Guchuan become a ghost?

Lin Hong felt his eyes sore.

ghost……

But when the battle was over, there was no mention of the general's death, no mention of it!

Why is it a ghost?

Why?

How could it be a ghost?

"Brother Lin?" Seeing his pale face and dazed expression, Duan Yu was a little worried.

The blood in Lin Hong's body was completely cold, his eyes went dark, his hands and feet felt weak, and he couldn't stand still.

With a hand beside him supporting him, Dai Xuchen was a little worried, "Master Lin?"

Lin Hong broke away from Dai Xuchen, it's best for no one to bother him now.

He felt that he couldn't hear anything clearly, the scene in front of him was blurry, his head was screaming, and he shouted to the empty surrounding, "Wan Guchuan! Come out!"

"Eternal River!"

"Pretend to be a ghost!"

"come out!"

"Is it fun to tease me?!"

"Brother Lin..." Duan Yu was startled by his state.

Yu Tian also pursed his lips tightly, trying to pull him but he avoided him.

"Eternal River!"

"come out!"

"Come out! Speak clearly!"

"come out……"

"Wan Guchuan..." Lin Hong felt his whole body trembling, as if he was under tremendous pressure, his slender figure fell to his knees overwhelmed, and let the light-colored clothes and snow-white cloak spread on the ground.The cold fingers trembled slightly and stuck to the arch of his eyebrows, supporting his heavy head, the dull pain of his heart convulsions would make him suffocate to death.

How sad it is for the lonely Luan to dance in the mirror.

"Brother Lin..." Duan Yu was so worried that he knelt down next to him, frowning, looking at him, not knowing the specific situation, wanting to pat him but not daring, wanting to comfort him but not knowing what to say, holding back His face turned pale.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but the sky that was still bright just now has become extraordinarily gloomy at this moment.

Dark clouds swept across, coming from all directions, and the air carried the coolness of distant rain, as if a terrible storm was brewing.

It was as if something was responding to Lin Hong, more sorrowful than him.
