They both wear the same soul

The window was covered with hydrangea, half of the window was propped up, Xu Wanqing poked her head out to look around, and the guards were on patrol.

This is one of countless ordinary days, but it is also very unusual.

She counted the days, at this moment, she should have pierced Zhang Xu in the future.My current body is sleeping on the bed, and my soul is out of the body at the mercy of others.

However, now she is sitting here looking at the boy's humble garden, enduring pain all over her body.

There were wounds all over his body, large and small. In order to torture the whereabouts of the elixir, the servants of the young national teacher used many cruel methods.

If the young man is right, then she will no longer go to the afterlife.

The last time she passed through with her soul, she didn't expect that it would be the last time she talked to Shang Yi.

I slept all morning with exhaustion, and came back in the afternoon. The clothes were changed, but the amulet was still there. The young man looked at her with his face on his face, and thought for a while: "I tried to fix your soul, so you won't go out of your body again." Now, tell me where the elixir is."

There was something extra in the talisman, she took it out by herself, it was a pure black small hard shell, the young man smiled: "Oh, it's very smart, wearing this will stop your soul from running around."

"who are you?"

"The great master of the former emperor, um, the one who made alchemy, I want to get back my things, and the elixir must not fall into the wrong hands." He lowered his eyebrows, looked at Xu Wanqing, and smiled, "Immortality is a secret I'm afraid I won't live long, so I must take it back and destroy it, otherwise..."

"I have already confessed."

She rubbed the hard shell, if it was for her convenience now, it would be of some use, put it back, the young man no longer forced her, seemed to realize that Xu Wanqing, who had already been tortured, had gritted her teeth and seen her own methods, no longer afraid Frightened, so he changed his soft face and asked someone to serve the meal.

She was seriously injured, and she couldn't stand up straight on the couch by the window. The boy fed her the medicine, and when he handed the spoon over, she was a little dazed, but took it anyway.

"Why do you want to make alchemy?"

"Naturally, I want to see if I can do it. Who would think that I can do it? Do you think it's wonderful?"

For the first time, he spied on the secret, the young man said "I won't live long", and felt a little sad, Xu Wanqing knew that she couldn't get away, so she could only talk to him with Yan Yuese.

But he was resentful in his heart, he was the one who caused the disaster, and he was also the one who ended it. Without this young man, where would there be so many things.

She insisted that it was in her own bedroom, and she didn't know anything else. She also said where she came from, and only said that a man rushed to throw it at her, but she didn't see clearly.

The boy was very patient and came to talk to her every day.

Today I asked her how her two husbands were doing and how they treated her well, and tomorrow they would ask her how her wounds were and whether the food was satisfactory.

Seeing from the window that the guards were changing every day, Xu Wanqing thought that the young man must have made other preparations, and wondered what would happen to him after he found the elixir.

"What are you going to do after you find the elixir?"

"It stands to reason that it would be ruined, but I have been studying the Fa for so long that even my master thought I was a coward with no skills. I searched all over for the secret recipe and wanted to keep this big thing of mine. If I am as famous as that Xu Fu... ...Heh, he searched for a fairy recipe to hide, and everyone thought he had a vain name, but I was different, I must leave a name forever."

"You killed many children, and found many women..."

"Since ancient times, which emperor's family didn't step on human life? I was not the one who ordered the search for the baby. The emperor himself listened to my words and insisted that I make alchemy. It's not that I came here to deceive the public."

She stopped talking and sat down with her knees hugged.

"Where does your soul go after leaving your body? Penglai Xiandao? Or when the ancient gods? Or a glimpse of the future?"

The young man was very interested in her, so he pulled her arm: "We exchange secrets. If you ask a question, you have to answer me. In this way, we each have two secrets."

"I have no secrets, and I have already said what I should say. It is useless to keep me any longer. Why don't you kill me and find the elixir yourself? You don't need to waste your life with me."

"You asked me, you can still write your novels, I have no name and surname, but I still ask you to write my story and leave a name for me."

"..." She closed her eyes and ignored her.

After more than two months, the guards outside the door changed, and Xu Wanqing noticed it.

You can't do anything here.

She thought of several ways out for herself:

Report this matter to the emperor, but if the emperor knows about the elixir, he may be buried for thousands of miles;

Fleeing and living in seclusion, marrying at random into rural households and hiding their names, but she knows about the elixir, it will only drag innocent people down;

In this regard, he brought the elixir back to the young man, and left him alone, rather than wasting his life here.

When the boy came again, they began to draw lots.

Each of them wrote three questions and put them into the lottery.

Six questions rolled in, the first one fell out, and the two spread out.

"It's my question, where did you learn art?"

"In the backyard of my house, I raised a donkey. When the master came, he took the donkey away. I chased it for twenty miles, and I chased it up the mountain. The master couldn't do it, so he had to teach me some unpopular spells." The young man happily drew lots, "ah , is my question, how did you get out of your body?"

"Naturally, not my intention." She told the truth.

"It's the magic of Taoism, and some people are born with a destiny." The young man said to himself.

The two draw lots every day, you come and go, and ask all the questions you want to ask.

Avoid the intentionally hidden questions of "Where did you go when your soul went out of your body?" and "Where's the elixir?", and the rest becomes tedious.

The teenager began to ask: "Why do you want to write a novel?" This is a bad question, and she racked her brains to ask "How old are you?"

After another half a month, Xu Wanqing was already asking questions such as "what to eat today?" and "why did you cut off the lotus leaves and float them on the water".

She got nothing from the boy's answer, and the boy got nothing useful from her answer.

The two were wary of each other, and Xu Wanqing finally stopped the game.

After dinner, she stood in the courtyard to enjoy the shade. The flowers were blooming for dinner when suddenly a group of guards came over.

The leader said: "Madam, did you see that someone came here just now?"

She shook her head.

The guards left in unison, and she paced slowly.After about half tea time, a guard came towards her.

She said casually, "I didn't see it, you have already been here."

"Madam, it's me. Do you still have the thing you gave Madam last time?"

The guard raised his helmet that didn't fit properly, revealing his eyes, Xu Wanqing remembered.

This person was the slender one, the one who handed her a box and ran away after bringing death to the whole family.

"Not here."

"Where is that?" The person looked around, seeming quite anxious, she felt resentful in her heart, but thought, finally completed the entrustment.

"What are you going to do with the elixir?"

"It's not something Madam should worry about."

It wasn't something she was worried about, but it caused her a lot of trouble. She shook her head slightly, indicating that she had nothing to say.

After a moment of stalemate, the man finally compromised: "Ma'am, I am the hidden guard of the current emperor. I stole the elixir, and the former emperor died in a fit of anger. Now that the new emperor has a new policy, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and the current emperor has benefited the world." , if we can live forever, it will also be a blessing for us Ming people..."

She is no longer a child, and she is definitely not a fool who is easily fooled.

"It's in my bedroom. People from the National Teacher may have checked it. You can look for it in the box."

She dismissed him casually, but he was extra cautious: "How do I know Madam didn't lie to me?"

"Forget it if you don't believe me." She turned and entered the room.

Giving immortality to the emperor, she is afraid that she is going crazy.

When the man finally left, she still made a choice.

Compared with this bad thing, it is better to have a less bad bad thing.

There is nothing worse than an elixir falling into the emperor's house.

When the guards of the national teacher rushed into her bedroom and opened the dressing box, found the elixir and sent it to the mysterious courtyard, Xu Wanqing was playing chess with the boy.

"When the elixir comes, here, I should thank you."

There are two coffins parked in the yard, one on the left and one on the right.The boy said that in order to thank her, he gave her to be buried with him.

The two of them were going to be buried together for no reason, but Xu Wanqing didn't say anything.

It's just a pity that I didn't have time to cherish the last chance to meet Shang Yi.

The guards rushed out of the crowd holding the box, their footsteps were light and fast, as if half of the shadows were wandering away.

The young man pointed her to the cemetery he had chosen early on. The feng shui there is very good, it is not easy to be stolen, and it can store energy to support people. It seemed like a good house.

The door opened, and the headed guard rushed in, knelt down on one knee, and gently placed the box on the table.

The teenager opened the dressing box and glanced at it: "Well, it's true."

The protruding hand quickly withered and became old, the young man hastily retracted, gesturing and pushing towards Xu Wanqing.

She took advantage of the opportunity to grab the box: "This is the so-called... the price of spying on the secrets of heaven?"

"That's right, that's right, thank you for this sacrificial article, which has described my life very well. I have been carved in the coffin, come and see."

Holding the vanity box in her hand, she followed the boy, with their backs to the guards.

"Open it and take a look."

She opened it as she said, and the seven pills were neatly arranged.

"Here. Take it."

She froze for a moment, grabbed the elixir and squeezed her hands full, the boy snatched the box and slapped the lid on it.

puff-

A sharp knife pierced her belly, the boy pulled out the knife, kicked her into the coffin, and ordered: "Nail it."

In the pain, she couldn't help stretching her fingers, and dropped a pill.

The lid of the coffin was closed, and darkness pressed in.

After an unknown amount of time, she woke up again, and the coffin seemed to be shaking.Faint voices came from outside: "The one to the south belongs to the National Teacher, open it."

The voice sounded familiar, maybe it was a guard.

"No." After a while, someone replied, "The national teacher is dead. Here, there are a few medicines. I don't think it will matter. This nagging person is crazy."

"Open that." Someone ordered.

"The one to be buried with?"

"Forget it, let's get acquainted and close the cover of the national teacher. How offending."

People gradually left.She raised her hand to touch the lid of the coffin, and was nailed to death, revealing a thin air.She tried her best to grab the scattered pills, her stomach hurt unbearably, she swallowed the first one, and found two slings of money under her body.

Grabbed a large piece of money to fill the gap, stuffed it next to the nail and tried to pry it, revealing a very thin gap.

Exhausted, she lay in a doomed coffin.

The abdominal pain seemed to be gradually disappearing, and she regained some strength, and continued to grab the big money to pry the coffin.

She didn't feel hungry, she didn't even feel thirsty, and that's when she realized that maybe she had really swallowed the elixir.

When she opened the coffin, after she ate the second one, she opened the national teacher's coffin, only to see a withered corpse curled up into the size of a child, scattered with three or four pills that looked like elixir of longevity, she sniffed After sniffing, the pungent smell was unbearable, so I threw it away.

She draws words in the tomb every day to pass the time, and she doesn't know how long she has passed.At that time, she hadn't figured out that one pill could last a hundred years, but she just ate one when the skin on the back of her hand became a little loose, so she ate five.

She held some hope vaguely, if she could live forever, she might be able to go to the human world again before all the seven pills were consumed.

Until that day, there was a great commotion from above. After the door of the tomb was opened, a steel shelf was erected.

Someone above said: "Don't worry, there have been so many unfavorable things before, call Mr. Shang. No one is allowed to go down."

Mr. Shang... She was not very good at talking at that time, and she hadn't communicated with anyone for a long time, so she had to repeat what she said before.

She waited for people to come down from the bottom, but she never thought that a couple would come down at night, muttering to herself about coming early and taking benefits to go back for the girl to go to college, and she would never do this job again.

The husband and wife came in and dug the soil and carried them up. She stared at the two in the dark, vaguely feeling friendly, and felt that they were old acquaintances.

When she remembered that she had seen these two in the photo frame of Zhang Xu's family, the two had already set up sex without knowing the heights of the sky.

"There's another door here, blow up his mother."

"Don't, it's easy to collapse."

A slender little girl came down.

Short hair, short top, leggings, and sneakers, they got out of the hole: "Dad! Mom! Don't do this! Your boss will be screwed if he finds out!"

"Zhang Xu, you know a lot about football, so be careful when you come out, and you're the only one who still has a part-time job, go back to study as soon as possible!" the man said.

The woman said: "Ah, you don't have a good word to say, Axu, Mom told you, I went to the construction site with your dad, and it's rare to come across here. Your dad said there are antiques down there. Let's sell some quietly. , you go back to school, enough for you to go to college, parents will not go out to work, can you go back to the village to accompany you?"

"..." Xu Wanqing couldn't help sighing.

"Who!" The sigh echoed in all directions, echoing like a cry.The man picked up the shovel and looked around, but no one was there.

Zhang Xu looked like a silent and awkward child, who followed behind with his hands in his pockets and didn't speak. The couple refused to let her explode, and they scolded her away.

Xu Wanqing patted Shang Yi's shoulder lightly, she was in another secret passage, Zhang Xu's eyes widened, but he didn't scream, just stared blankly as if frightened.

At this time, did the soul of the past self pass through Zhang Xu?

She opened her mouth with difficulty, and her words were a little jerky: "Zhang...Xu..."

"If you die unjustly, don't call my name to protect you!" Zhang Xu lowered his voice, trembling all over his body.

"I am, I am, Xu Wanqing..."

She is not very good at speaking, and she is studying hard. Her Henan accent sounds a little strange, but fortunately, her northern accent is similar, and she can hear what she is saying.

Zhang Xu shrank his neck: "I don't know you..."

She didn't speak anymore, she was just thinking about what to do, when suddenly there was a loud bang that almost shattered her eardrums.

The top of his head began to tremble, and stones fell down crackling.

She tried her best to push Zhang Xu out, and looked around from another place, but Zhang Xu's parents were already buried in the ruins.

She was in the tomb passage, and the tomb passage was exceptionally strong, only a little damaged near the door, and dry sand flowed out crackling.

The name of this thing is □□, it is really terrifying, these two masters of art are bold, and they did not listen to the child's persuasion to die here, maybe it is their fate.

She stood blankly in the tomb accompanying the two corpses, and she didn't hide until someone came.

She later found out that Zhang Xu didn't remember the experience in the tomb at all.

Now, she is sitting in front of Zhang Xu and staring at the child. Her hair has grown a little longer, covering her ears at last, and she looks less bald. Her eyes are the same as when she first met, a little scared and reserved, and her eyeballs are dripping. Yoo Yoo Zhuan kept blinking, rubbing his hands on his knees and rubbing them back and forth very nervously.

"I'm Xu Wanqing."

"...Hello." Zhang Xu presented his ID card with trembling hands, "This is the first... first time meeting, I am Zhang Xu."

"Hello." She glanced at Shang Yi who was sitting next to him cracking melon seeds, gently tugged on Shang Yi's sleeve, and the two walked aside.

"It's not the first time I've seen her..."

"You said it, it's okay, just let her recall the memory, it's okay to say it. She also knows that her parents are because of my project, so say what there is, and I will handle the rest."

So she sat back on the sofa again, and Zhang Xu, who was opposite her, scratched her hair nervously.

"It's not the first time we met. The last time we met was in the tomb, do you remember?" She asked softly.

The tall, big kid opposite shook his head like a rattle.
