Burial with Qing Yao

The ghost messenger has been lying under He Shuting's tree for ten years no matter in spring, summer, autumn or winter. After a long time, He Shuting has already gotten used to his existence.

Occasionally, when he doesn't come, He Shuting even feels a little... lonely.

In the years when the epidemic was rampant, there were fewer and fewer trees on the mountain, and more and more tombs. During those years when He Shuting was trapped here, he could not speak or move. The whole mountain was like a huge tomb, trapped He also trapped the ghost who was as lonely as him.

The ghost messenger was lying in the tomb, and He Shuting was the only tree standing on the tomb, like a tombstone without a name engraved on it.

"Then one day, someone went up the mountain to cut wood to make a coffin, and walked around the barren mountain a few times, and he saw me, and I was terrified..."

He Shuting only needs to practice for more than ten years before he can leave this land and walk in the world independently. Seeing that he is about to leave this prison, once he is cut down, he will have to start all over again.

Although he is intelligent, he can't speak, let alone stop them from cutting him down.

He shook the trunk in despair, and countless leaves fell.

The sun was about to set, and on the highest point of the ridge, the setting sun was bright and brilliant. The ghost messenger stepped on the tombstone and walked towards him from a distance.

"Hey, this is my tree."

He showed his figure, in the eyes of human beings, he seemed to appear out of thin air, and he was dressed in strange black, holding a chain in his hand as if he was about to kill him at any time.

"Didn't you see that he was shaking with fright? Why don't you get out of here?"

He Shuting: "!!! He actually knows that when he trembles, the leaves will fall off... I have been trembling for ten years, and I have been afraid of you for ten years. You know it all, but you are still indifferent, right..."

As soon as the ghost messenger appeared, those who came to cut down the trees trembled more than He Shuting, dropped their things and ran away.

The ghost guard picked up an ax and compared it to He Shuting's tree trunk. He Shuting was startled, why, he wants to cut me down himself?

Seeing the leaves falling one after another from the top of his head, the ghost guard smiled, "Why, just this little courage?"

He patted the tree trunk, and said to He Shuting: "My time is up, and I won't be able to see the day when you transform into a human form. Thank you for your company for so many years. I'm going to reincarnate tomorrow."

He had always known that He Shuting was a tree with enlightened wisdom, capable of thinking and emotions, but unable to speak.

Ten years of companionship, time is neither long nor short for them.

He Shuting's heart is depressed. He and the ghost are here, and he has watched the sunrise and sunset countless times. If he never comes again, He Shuting's branches and leaves can grow more densely than before, but... Abandon.

As usual, the ghost messenger picked up a dog's tail grass and held it in his mouth, leaning against He Shuting's tree trunk, facing the mountain ridge and the countless tombs.

Pointing to the remaining sunlight on the stele, he said to He Shuting: "When I am reincarnated, I will finally be able to stand under the sunlight again."

When he was reincarnated, he would no longer need the shade tree He Shuting.

He Shuting was very sad, he had a lot of words in his heart and couldn't express them to him.

For example, a goodbye when parting, or pat him on the shoulder and say something that each of you cherishes.

"Actually, at that time, I wanted to ask him to stay, but when I saw him talking about tomorrow, there was light in his eyes, hope, and yearning. Compared with those, what am I? It's just that he temporarily used A tree for shade..."

When He Shuting said this, he was a little sad, "He was the first friend I met. Yes, I regarded him as a friend. After that day, he really never came again, and I didn't know that he was reincarnated. How are you doing, after the big change in appearance, even if I met him, I don't know him."

After He Shuting's first story was finished, the audience couldn't get enough of it.

The long night was long, and the desire to confide in the dead He Shuting became stronger and stronger for those words that had been held back in his heart during those years.

He talked about the second story almost without stopping.

"For the second story, let's talk about the person I like."

He Shuting practiced alone in the barren mound for more than ten years, and finally cultivated into a human form. His roots were separated from the ground and turned into two feet, which can walk in the world.

"The first time I went down the mountain, I met him looking for death by the river."

He Shuting accompanied Gufen, knowing that life is precious, the first time he went down the mountain, he saw someone looking for death, so of course he would not sit idly by.

"It was dawn, and I was driving alone in the mountains. I saw him walking towards the lake step by step from a distance. I was too far away from him. I opened my mouth to make him think twice, but I couldn't make a sound. At that time, the lake was already gone. It's past his waist."

"By the time I ran over, he had completely sunk, and only a few ripples could be seen on the surface of the water."

He Shuting didn't have time to think about it, and followed into the water, and saw a person slowly sinking to the bottom from a distance, without struggling, let alone resisting, he was determined to seek death.

He Shuting quickly swam to the man and grabbed him.

The man had been submerged in the water for a while, and he could no longer breathe. He Shuting didn't dare to delay, so he used some demon power to quickly fish him out of the water.

"I saw that he wasn't breathing, so I quickly breathed for him."

Bai Wenxing interjected inappropriately at this time, "What is Qi crossing?"

"Crossing Qi is..." He Shuting was about to explain, but was interrupted by Jiang Ran, "In front of the child, there is no need to explain so clearly, just continue."

"I gave him breath for a long time before he woke up. When he first woke up, he treated me very badly, and even pushed me, telling me not to meddle in my own business."

Not long after, his family's servants came over, and He Shuting listened to their quarrel, and roughly understood the whole story.

The one he rescued was the only son of the well-known Chu family in Cangxi Town, Chu Yi.

Chu Yi's parents had arranged for him a baby bride. Now that both parties were of the right age, they wanted to get married. Unexpectedly, the day before the wedding, the bride suddenly fell ill and passed away.

Later, the Chu family told their son two more marriages, both of which looked the same. All in all, the bride just couldn't marry into his Chu family.

Not a sudden illness, but a sudden accident.

Over time, people in Cangxi Town began to spread rumors that it was very unlucky for the Chu family's only son to beat his wife.

There are too many people who talk about it, and Chu Yi is pointed and pointed at wherever he goes, and he is a manly man, and he is pointed at his nose and scolded.He is so angry, how can he bear this anger?

I couldn't think about it for a while, so I came to seek death.

The Chu family thanked him a thousand times, gave him a bag of silver, and took the young master away.

He Shuting had a bad impression of Chu Yi at first, thinking that he was arrogant and did not know how to repay him.

"The second time I saw him was when he was forced by his family to marry him."

I heard that people from the Chu family asked someone to do a fortune-telling for Chu Yi, and it was true that the calculation was done to kill his wife.

The Chu family stuffed a lot of money, and the fortune teller reluctantly agreed to break the situation for him.

It is said that Chuyi will first marry a yin relative and take a dead person to enter the door. You think, no matter what happens, the bride is already dead. What is the worst possible outcome?

Once Chu Yi has a yin relationship and has a wife, he has passed this hurdle.

If you marry someone else in the future, there will be no problem.

The Chu family racked their brains in order to keep a queen, and even agreed to the marriage on the spot, and forced him to marry a dead man without discussing with Chu Yi.

The Chuyi naturally refused, and at the end of the quarrel, he actually stood on the high city wall.

Many people surrounded under the city wall, basically watching the excitement.

Someone told Chu Yi to jump down quickly, don't pretend.

Some people also said, why do you make it difficult for you to marry a dead person and go home?What a big deal, I'll marry you if you give it to me, do you need to be so pretentious and look for death and life?

There are also some conscientious people who ask Chu Yi to think about his parents, who worked so hard to raise him, and the white-haired ones to the black-haired ones.

He Shuting was also standing under the city wall, he tried his best to raise his head, trying to see the person standing under the sun clearly.

At noon, the sun was shining brightly.

"Chu Yi is tall, neither fat nor thin, just right in stature, and good-looking, at least better looking than me. I stand out from everyone, so Chu Yi is dazzling."

"He is dressed in white, but I don't think that color is suitable for him. He is suitable for wearing black, and he will have a heroic feeling. Compared with reading, he is more suitable for martial arts."

"I heard those people's bad words against him, but unfortunately I couldn't speak at that time, let alone defend him. I don't understand why people in this town, including Chuyi's parents, would persecute him like this Thinking about it from another angle, if I were the prince, I wouldn't want to marry this kind of yin relative, not only would there be no dignity at all, but it would also be reduced to a joke, and I would never be able to hold my head up in this life."

So Chu Yi persistently used his life to fight against the crowd.

He did not stay on the wall for long, because the sun was so hot that his mind was dazed.

"He glanced at me, without much expression on his face, but I think he looked at me as if to warn me not to mind my own business."

He Shuting pursed his lips, and expressed his true thoughts at the time, "Actually, when I was standing there, I ran to save him. It wasn't because Chu Yi was so pleasing, but because I was short of money... "

He went down the mountain for the first time, saved Chuyi, got a bag of money, experienced it in the town, and knew the benefits of money.

For mortals, life without money is difficult. Seeing that his pocket is so shy, and it happens that Chuyi is going to commit suicide today, He Shuting feels that this is a good opportunity to make money.

"As soon as he jumped down, the people below quickly avoided, only me. I fished him the most vigorously. He jumped from such a high place, and I also took my life to catch him. I hugged him horizontally. When I was in my arms, the bone in my left arm was broken, and it hurt so much, Chu Yi didn't scold me for a while, I guess he was frightened by me, because I almost passed out from crying."

He Shuting was very afraid of pain. When people dug a pit to bury the dead, he would tremble with pain when he touched his roots.

Now that his hand was broken, it was too painful, He Shuting bit his lip, his face was pale, and big tears fell down.

Chu Yi looked at He Shuting who was crying silently, frowned, and pulled him away.
