Push the ghost talker back

The air in the ward froze at this moment.

Xiao Shuang's parents saw that the two people were staring at each other, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward, so they wanted to say something light-hearted to ease the atmosphere, and stood there thinking.

Finally, Xiao Shuang's mother looked at Xu Lingqiu's face, and remembered that she had seen this man a few days ago, and he had said that he would go back and help her daughter find a way.

"Ah, it's you," Xiao Shuang's mother exclaimed excitedly, "Isn't it Xu Lingqiu, I remember you, you have helped my daughter."

Now, Lao Yan looked at Xu Lingqiu thoughtfully.

Oh, it turned out that Xu Lingqiu was also involved in this matter.

Thinking of this, Lao Yan looked at the pennant and then saw that there was still room for another person standing beside him, and made room for Xu Lingqiu, motioning for him to come in:

"Then why don't you take a photo together?"

This proposal was too serious, Xu Lingqiu froze on the spot.

Lu Mingran's smile then froze, and he asked the system:

"Is Lao Yan being driven crazy by me?"

----------

Fortunately, while being driven crazy, Lao Yan also retained a bit of reason, and didn't really invite Xu Lingqiu in.

Xu Lingqiu went downstairs, Lu Mingran followed after seeing this, and found him in the small garden of the nursing home.

Today's weather is exceptionally good, sweeping away the haze of the previous few days.Xu Lingqiu sat on the bench under the flower stand, looking a little dazed.

He came to rescue Xiaoshuang with full preparations, but at this time the matter had already been resolved by others, Lu Mingran could understand him, knowing that it was a feeling of suddenly feeling empty in his heart.

But no one in this world has to be someone, no one has to be the savior of others.Isn't it a kind of torture to bear too much responsibility?

Lu Mingran wanted to go up and talk to him, but at this moment a white figure slowly walked over from the other end under the flower stand.After seeing that person, Lu Mingran stopped in his tracks.

It was none other than Xiao Shuang.Xiao Shuang, who had just recovered, slipped down here for a walk alone, saying that the speed of her recovery is really amazing.

Xiao Shuang has been standing there observing Xu Lingqiu for a long time, as if hesitating for something.

Finally, Xiao Shuang came over, greeted Xu Lingqiu shyly, and sat beside him.

"I remember you, you talked to me in the corridor that day, but my consciousness was very chaotic at that time."

Xiao Shuang looked at Xu Lingqiu and laughed: "Your name is Xu Lingqiu. I have heard your name before, and my brother mentioned you."

When mentioning her elder brother, Xiao Shuang couldn't help but feel a little sad, and so did Xu Lingqiu.The breeze passed between the two of them carrying the fragrance of flowers. After a long time, Xiao Shuang suddenly said:

"Some words may sound unreliable, but I want to tell you."

"During the past few days in a daze, I seemed to have gone to a very dark, very dark place. It was scary there, but I saw a person."

Xiao Shuang stroked her wind-torn hair, and smiled at Xu Lingqiu:

"My brother told me that he was very grateful that you helped him before, only you didn't laugh at him."

So Xu Lingqiu turned his head to look at her, with a small light shining in his eyes.

Facing Xu Lingqiu's slightly skeptical eyes, Xiao Shuang responded with a very firm smile, finally dispelling the doubts in Xu Lingqiu's eyes bit by bit.

"She's lying. People who return after losing their souls don't remember things in the underworld." At this time, the system whispered something in Lu Mingran's ear.

"You mean, she didn't see her brother in the underworld?"

"I don't know that, but I can tell she's lying."

The system laughed, and said: "She may have seen that Xu Lingqiu was thinking too much, and wanted to comfort him."

Lu Mingran was still discussing with the system, but Xiaoshuang was the only one left under the flower stand.

Xiao Shuang stretched out her slender and pale arms, and touched the petals nearby, when the sun happened to fall on her hands.

Xiao Shuang suddenly withdrew her palm in disgust, and immediately stood up and walked towards the shady building.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but before Xiao Shuang left, Lu Mingran saw her yelling at his shadow.

...It seems to be saying: "Brother."

"Wait a minute." The system called out.

"Lu Mingran, do you still remember the secret that Lao Yan kept from the novel?"

--------------

in the afternoon.

When Lu Mingran returned to the ward, he saw Lao Yan arguing with the patient's family, taking advantage of the quarrel between his parents about whether to take him to the Furong Hotel or the old Wang's Roasted Chicken Restaurant, Lao Yan hurried out.

Lao Yan is determined not to participate in such activities again.

But he was indeed hungry, so he took Lu Mingran to find a place to eat.When he got there, Lu Mingran looked up and found that it was the noodle shop mentioned in the novel.

This noodle restaurant is in an old alley, dilapidated and messy. When Lao Yan broke in with the bright red pennant, he seemed out of place with everything here.

Moreover, his aura is too cold at this time, and his expression is too fierce. It seems that there should be another four characters written on the pennant:

"Lonely seeking defeat."

The boss who was setting up a pot and cooking outside turned his head to send Lao Yan in, and the diners sitting inside also turned their eyes sideways, looking at him with some curiosity and some fear.

Lao Yan also sensed this sense of disobedience, and casually threw the pennant to Lu Mingran.Lu Mingran hugged the silk banner and followed Lao Yan into the innermost part.

After sitting down, Lao Yan looked at the banner that Lu Mingran was holding, and sighed: "I have been doing this for so many years, but I have never received this thing."

"Very good, hang it at home to ward off evil spirits."

Lu Mingran looked at the menu, and ordered two sets of noodles with beef under Lao Yan's suggestion.This restaurant is really good, the beef is genuine at a price, and the noodles are smooth and chewy. When he was satisfied, Lu Mingran raised his head and glanced at the person opposite.

I don't know if it's because of Lao Yan's sense of mystery and power that he has almost defeated him. At this moment, Lao Yan looks more humane.He likes to avoid the chopped green onion in the bowl when eating noodles, and he is very focused on eating, not looking at his mobile phone or the like.

"I'm thinking about asking Xu Lingqiu to have dinner at this noodle restaurant." Lao Yan paused his chopsticks, "I know he likes the food here. Now it seems that the taste is really good."

"...You investigated him so clearly?"

"Because I want him to do things in front of me."

Lu Mingran picked up a piece of noodles with chopsticks in a complicated mood, and said, "Then what if he doesn't want to?"

Compared with this stage in the novel, it can be said that Lao Yan's attraction to Xu Lingqiu is basically gone at this moment, and Lu Mingran inexplicably sympathizes with Lao Yan.

Lao Yan was completely unaware of his situation, and said, "I will try."

Lu Mingran knew that this was certainly because of the relationship between Lao Yan and Xu Lingqiu, but also because of the original plot, so he couldn't persuade him.After a helpless smile, Lu Mingran ordered two bottles of soda.

"Director Yan, Lao Hu told me to go back, and I will not follow you in the future."

Lu Mingran raised the orange soda bottle to clink glasses with Lao Yan, and smiled happily:

"The green hills do not change, and the green waters flow."

There will be a period later.

------------

After walking out of the noodle shop, Lu Mingran and Lao Yan headed east and west one by one, it really felt like parting.

However, after walking for a while, Lu Mingran found that the pennant was still in his hand, so he turned around and chased after Lao Yan.Lao Yan heard movement behind him, and when he turned around, he saw Lu Mingran running panting, running towards him with a ferocious face holding a pennant, he was really startled.

At the same time, Lu Mingran was startled by what the system said:

"There should be people from the folklore department who will abduct the male lead."

Lu Mingran: "...so?"

"So I opened a new vest for you, you should live near Xu Lingqiu's house first."

There happened to be another house in Xu Lingqiu's community, and it was in the same building as the house he lived in now. Lu Mingran contacted him and rented the house.

On the first day of meeting Xu Lingqiu, the landlord, Xu Lingqiu warmly and hospitablely expressed that he would invite Lu Mingran to dinner, Lu Mingran said with a smile:

"Why are you so polite? Why don't I make pancakes for you?"

Back then, Lu Mingran opened a pancake and fruit peddler's vest. He really knew how to make it, but it was also really unpalatable.Xu Lingqiu tasted the pancakes he made, and recalled the fear of being dominated by that aunt.

The two said goodbye with a smile, and when they returned, they picked sweet and spicy things to dilute the sour taste in their mouths.

In the middle of the night, Lu Mingran couldn't fall asleep, so he turned over and sat up.Thinking that Xu Lingqiu might not be able to sleep right now, and he might be counting the money, Lu Mingran really wanted to knock on the door of his house and share the tiredness of counting the money with him.

At this time, the system quietly said: "You gave Xu Lingqiu so many cigarettes last time, and he hasn't sold them all yet."

A few more days went by in such a calm manner. Indeed, as the system said, there were people from the Folklore Department who came in contact with Xu Lingqiu in the name of carrying out tasks, and from time to time teased Xu Lingqiu to join them. On the door of Xu Lingqiu's house.

But I don't know if it was because of what Xiao Shuang said, Lu Mingran always felt that Xu Lingqiu was a little different from before.

His eyes are no longer always so preoccupied, and the hostility in his body is also much less.Lu Mingran found that he didn't need to take action at all, Xu Lingqiu was very satisfied with his current life.

Interestingly, from the fourth day, Lao Yan came again.

On the day when Lao Yan came to the door for the first time, Lu Mingran was studying his pancakes at home. After hearing Lao Yan's voice, Lu Mingran's egg-beating hand stopped in mid-air.

A few sporadic conversations were heard upstairs, followed by the sound of the door being closed, and the sound of Lao Yan's footsteps going downstairs.

The next day, Lao Yan came again, and this time, Xu Lingqiu let him in.

But it still didn't last long.Lu Mingran soon heard him coming downstairs again.

Once, twice, Lu Mingran began to take a small notebook to record the number of times Lao Yan came.

It can be said that he has been defeated and fought repeatedly, and his courage is commendable.

On the one hand, Lu Mingran admired Lao Yan's perseverance, on the other hand, Lu Mingran felt a little guilty. After all, if he hadn't forcibly lowered Lao Yan's sense of mystery and power, Lao Yan really didn't have to spend so much effort.

On the sixth day, this time, I don't know what Lao Yan and Xu Lingqiu said, but he stayed for an hour before leaving.

After Lao Yan left, Xu Lingqiu suddenly went downstairs and knocked on the door of Lu Mingran's house, seemingly in a bad mood.

"Do you have wine at home?"

Lu Mingran copied the spatula: "There are pancakes and fruits, do you want them?"

Lu Mingran didn't expect that someone could get drunk after eating pancakes.

Xu Lingqiu stayed at his house for a long time that night, but he didn't talk too much, Lu Mingran drank the boiled water he had boiled to accompany him.

Then the next night, when Lao Yan came again, Lu Mingran couldn't bear it anymore and opened the door.

Lu Mingran suddenly discovered that he didn't have to be afraid of Lao Yan at all, he was wearing a new vest and a new identity, and Lao Yan couldn't recognize him at all.

And he was no longer the little assistant following Lao Yan.Some people can beat up their boss with arrogance and arrogance before leaving the job, but for him, not to mention beating up his boss violently, at least he can be bold when he sees Lao Yan.

"Did you go to my landlord?"

When Lao Yan went downstairs, Lu Mingran opened the door, revealing his head: "He's very busy recently, he doesn't see anyone."

Lu Mingran really hasn't seen Lao Yan for a long time.I don't know if he read it wrong, he always felt that Lao Yan's mental state was much worse than before, and he was quite haggard.

Lu Mingran thought in his heart that he would no longer be afraid of Lao Yan, but his body was honestly in a state of alert.

Lao Yan looked at him.

This young man who was holding the door with only his head exposed was a stranger, logically speaking he was not familiar with him, but for some reason, when he saw this person, Lao Yan would think of another person named Lu Mingran.

The young man stared at him and asked:

"What did you say to my landlord yesterday? I think he was in a bad mood after talking to you."

Lao Yan smiled slightly: "You want to know?"

--------------

The location is still in the noodle shop, and even the sitting position seems to be the same.

Sitting here, Lu Mingran remembered that he was at this table not long ago, holding a soda bottle and saying to Lao Yan, "The green mountains will not change, and the green water will flow forever."

Now it's true that there will be a date later, but he recognizes Lao Yan, but Lao Yan doesn't recognize him.

"Actually, it's nothing. I want to ask your landlord to do something, but he doesn't want to."

Lao Yan lied.

A few days ago, he tried many ways to attract Xu Lingqiu, including telling their relationship because of the incident in the mountain village, but Xu Lingqiu was not interested.

Yesterday, before Xu Lingqiu issued the order to evict guests, Lao Yan asked him a question:

"Do you feel that there is something wrong with Xiao Shuang?"

After finishing speaking, Lao Yan regretted talking about this.

Xu Lingqiu did not answer.

From Xu Lingqiu's reaction at that moment, Lao Yan could tell that Xu Lingqiu actually knew this secret recently.

The reason why those other people were unwilling or unable to help was because the lost soul was not one at all, but two.

This is what Lao Yan discovered when he was working.The soul of a living person is of course easy to bring up, but the other remnant soul should belong to the underworld.

The trouble is that the two brothers and sisters are clinging tightly to each other, and they either die or live together, and there is absolutely no possibility of separation.

Lao Yan finally brought them all up.

In the past few years, Xu Lingqiu blamed himself and felt guilty, but how did he know that the classmate who should have died has actually existed in a special form, and he has no resentment in his heart.

His obsession, after all, was absurd.

------------

Lao Yan never attracted Xu Lingqiu again.He came here today because he wanted to tell Xu Lingqiu that he was going back. If Xu Lingqiu was willing and wanted to treat him as a friend, he could come to him in the future.

In the evening, after a meal, Lu Mingran and Lao Yan left the restaurant together, and Lao Yan told Lu Mingran that he would never come to his landlord again.

"Oh, that……"

Lu Mingran was about to say something, when suddenly, he saw Lao Yan's face became ugly.

This reminded Lu Mingran of what happened in the hotel that day.

But this time, Lao Yan's reaction was stronger than last time, and it didn't take long before his whole body softened and collapsed on the ground.

"Old Yan! Old Yan!" Lu Mingran didn't care that his vest would fall off, and he lifted his clothes, and he saw the purple-black handprints densely covered on his back.

The man who was so cold and unruly when he first appeared on the stage, so powerful that no one dared to offend him, was lying quietly on the ground at this moment, too weak to be vulnerable.

Lu Mingran panicked and grabbed Lao Yan's arm without thinking too much. After several efforts, he finally carried Lao Yan on his back.

At first Lu Mingran was a little dazed, not knowing where to go, and after turning around twice in a ridiculous way, he finally came to his senses and muttered to himself:

"Go to the hotel, go to the hotel..."

There is something in the hotel that can save Lao Yan.

This alley is too remote, it is difficult to stop a car.Lu Mingran carried Lao Yan on his back like this, and walked a long, long way. On the way, he seemed to hear a child crying sharply in his ear, and his headache was splitting.

Lu Mingran gritted his teeth and turned Lao Yan on his back to prevent him from falling.At this time, Lao Yan regained consciousness for a short time, and vaguely saw that the person carrying him was the young man from before, but he also looked like another person.

Finally, Lu Mingran stopped the car.

Seeing that he was carrying Lao Yan on his back, the people at the front desk of the hotel panicked and asked him to go to the hospital.Lu Mingran said "drunk", and ran straight to the room where Lao Yan was, took out the room card from his pocket, swiped open the door and rushed in.

After Lu Mingran entered the room, he threw Lao Yan on the bed and went to find the white powder.The things were still there, Lu Mingran tremblingly opened the box, pushed Lao Yan's clothes up, and quickly sprinkled the white powder on his back.

The fingerprints finally faded away slowly.

But Lao Yan was still in a coma.Lu Mingran sat by the bed, looking at him.

In the novel, Lao Yan died tragically to save the hero, but Lu Mingran thought that if he didn't contact the hero, he could survive.

However, now it seems that Lao Yan will die in these purple and black handprints sooner or later.

"He can survive, and he knows the method." The system said, "There are two porcelain dolls in the innermost part of the box he brought. If they are broken, those things will no longer haunt him."

"But in this way, the remnant soul of his master will also disappear."

The system asked Lu Mingran, "Do you need me to teach you how to break these two porcelain dolls?"

Lu Mingran wanted to help very much.

He also knew how much Lao Yan couldn't let go of his obsession.

After breaking the porcelain doll, Lao Yan could survive, but what about tomorrow?After waking up tomorrow morning, Lao Yan looked at the broken porcelain doll, thinking about the remnant soul of his master who disappeared forever, what would he think?

"I have no way to make a decision for him, and I have no right to let go of his obsession."

Lu Mingran turned off all the lights in the room, and looked at Lao Yan's white hair in the dark.

He doesn't want to lower this person's aura anymore, he hopes that this person will quickly return to that cold and powerful appearance, and he wants to save Lao Yan.

But the only one who can really save Lao Yan is himself.

After a long time, Lu Mingran sighed:

"I'll put the porcelain doll by his side, and let him wake up tomorrow morning and make his own choice."

----------

The sky is slowly getting brighter, and this mission is over.

Before Lao Yan woke up, Lu Mingran called "Old Yan" in his ear before leaving, but got no response.

After he leaves, will Lao Yan live in this world for a long time, or will he die in the next attack of mudra?

This is an uncertain matter, something that Lu Mingran dare not think about.

"Old Yan, you must live."

After saying this, Lu Mingran walked out of the hotel door. At this moment, Lao Yan on the bed moved his finger, but he didn't see it.

Lu Mingran went outside and boarded the bus he was familiar with.The driver smiled at him this time, like an old acquaintance.

The car started to start, Lu Mingran was a little sleepy, and gradually fell asleep.

Falling asleep, for some reason, Lu Mingran felt that the top of his head was a little cold.

Is the window open? Is it too windy?

Lu Mingran stretched out his hand in a daze, and closed the window.

No, the top of my head is still cold.

Lu Mingran subconsciously touched his head...

Wait a moment.

In the carriage, there was a tragic scream: "Where is my hair?"

The driver continued driving calmly.

As if the system had been prepared for a long time, it quickly handed Lu Mingran a mirror, and coaxed him in a soft voice:

"Xiao Lu, look quickly, who is this handsome monk in the mirror?"

Lu Mingran looked at it and was stunned.

After a while, Lu Mingran said, "System, I'm applying for swearing."

"Well...you tell me..."

Lu Mingran was about to cry:

"This handsome monk of his queen mother is me!"

The author has something to say: I didn't shave Xiao Lu's hair, I sent four
