Chapter 155: The Devil's Contract


My eyes flashed slightly, and I gritted my teeth and ran towards them.

I stood on the side and looked at the two people hugging each other.

I suppressed any bitterness in my heart and said, "Bai Ming'an."

Bai Ming'an let go of his hand, Ruan Lan in his arms was stunned for a moment, stood up and looked back at me.

Everyone in the Ruan family also looked over.

"Haha, you girl.

You cry when you see Ming'an.

Just wipe it and don't make others laugh."

Grandma Ruan came over jokingly.

Ruan Lan lowered her head and her long black hair covered her cheeks.

She couldn't see Clear expression.

Grandma Ruan turned to Bai Ming'an again, looked up and down, and couldn't help but sigh: "Ming'an, this is Ruan Lan.

The real Ruan Lan.

Grandma didn't hide it before, so you won't blame me, right?"

Bai Ming'an's face was cold, with a light dark color on his jade-like face, not warm, but not angry either: "No."

"That's good, haha.

Come on, come in.

Sit down and I'll talk to you."

Grandma Ruan's shrewd eyes lit up, "Grandma knows you want to know the secrets of the Ruan family for a long, long time."

A group of people entered inside one after another.

I followed behind, looking at Bai Ming'an in front of me and Ruan Lan holding his arm tightly beside me, my feet suddenly felt heavy, and I felt a thousand unwillingness to go there.

But, I still followed.

Grandma Ruan was sitting at the main seat.

After everyone was seated, she put one hand on the table and the other on her knees, her gaze deepening: "This started more than a hundred years ago.

At that time we The ancestors of the Ruan family were just humble traders.

They worked from dawn to dusk every day without rest all year round, but they could only earn enough for food and clothing.

One day, the sky was abnormal.

It was obviously daytime but the sky was very dark, and the surroundings were dark and eerie.

The ancestors were carrying their burdens on their way, and unknowingly encountered a ghost hitting the wall.

Trapped in an alley and unable to get out.

There he met a strange man.

The man was wrapped tightly and was squatting on the ground eating.

There was a famine in that era, and people often robbed food on the road and hid in corners to eat it.

The ancestors thought he was just a refugee, and when they walked up, they happened to see him turn around, his mouth covered in blood.

It turned out that he was eating without knowing it.

He ate people alive The ancestors were frightened.

There was no time to pick up the burden, so he turned around and ran for his life.

How can ordinary people fight against the evil spirits from below?

Soon, the ancestors discovered that no matter how they escaped, they always returned to the same place.

Facing that man-eating evil spirit.

My ancestors escaped many times but failed.

Finally, he gave up.

He stared hard at the evil spirit and cursed him with all the vicious words he had ever heard in his life.

Pour out all the unwillingness and fear in your heart and let it out.

He thought he was dead.

That’s why there are no taboos.

The strange thing is that the evil ghost is not angry, but smiles.

The evil ghost said that he had eaten many people.

Some people cried and begged him for mercy, and some people were so strong-willed that they died with dignity.

The ancestors were different, the evil ghost said.

He's a real villain.

In the end, the evil spirit didn't eat him.

Instead, he gave him two great gifts: eternal life and endless money.

The evil ghost lets you choose one of the two.

The ancestors wanted both commissions because of greed.

The evil spirit smiled for the second time and agreed.

As a result, our ancestor had unlimited life and abundant financial resources.

He used the money to quickly develop his fortune, and later our Ruan family came into existence. " At this point, Grandma Ruan paused for a moment, placing her hands on the table and intertwining them tightly: "In the past, our ancestors used huge financial resources to bring back all the relatives from far and near, and the big family lived together.

It was the most prosperous At that time, our Ruan family had more than 3,000 people.

However, all the happiness took a turn after a hundred years.

That year, there was a bumper harvest of food and when everyone was rejoicing, the Ruan family suffered from illness.

The Ruan family got a strange disease overnight, and one family member died almost every day.

Later, only the direct relatives of the ancestors remained.

The ancestor collapsed on the ground and murmured: "He said, he said that I can have life and money at the same time, but if I choose two, after a period of time, he will take them all away."

No, no” The ancestor was so startled that he began to spend a lot of money to hire Taoist priests and eminent monks.

As long as he could help relieve the Ruan family's disaster, he was willing to pay a sky-high price.

After all, he has endless money.

Most of the Taoist monks who were attracted by money were just drunkards, cheating money and making nonsense, or pretending to perform rituals to ward off evil spirits.

During those days, there was an event almost every now and then in the Ruan family.

Everyone in each room had to attend as long as they were not sick and could not get out of bed.

This went on for two or three months, with little success.

Not only is the disease not under control, it is spreading at a faster rate.

By the third month, all the ancestors' family members died of illness.

It snowed heavily that night, and the sky and the earth were completely white.

Such whiteness cannot cover the corpses lined up in the Ruan family's courtyard.

The white cloths on them are layers upon layers.

They are all lives that were alive not long ago.

The ancestor sat alone in the yard for a long time.

He suddenly understood that no matter how much life and money he spent, it was in vain.

If he was the only one left in time, then what was the use of eternity and wealth?

After thinking about it, the ancestor decided to end his life, but he forgot that he could not die.

The ancestors were so desperate that they had no way out and spent every day languishing in the yard.

The only time I go out is to get drunk.

I bring back a cart full of wine, and then I stay at home and get drunk again.

One day, he met an eminent monk.

The eminent monk took pity on him and told him that there was no eternal life in this world.

As long as he spent all his wealth to light a fire in the yard and ran in when the fire was at its strongest, the pain at this moment would be ended.

This was the last glimmer of hope, and the ancestors did as they were told.

A fire was lit and fire oil was sprinkled everywhere in the yard.

Just when he was about to throw the torch down, the evil ghost appeared again. " At the critical point, Grandma Ruan stopped again.

Everyone in the room listened quietly, and I noticed the expressions on the Ruan family's faces, as if even they didn't know that their ancestors had such a not-glorious but unexpectedly wonderful experience.

Hearing what she said, I vaguely guessed something.

Maybe the ancestors and the evil spirits reached some kind of agreement.

It is this agreement that has put the Ruan family in this situation now, and it is also an important reason why our group of people are gathered here.

Sure enough, under Ruan Lan's question.

"What did the ancestors and the evil spirits say later?"

Grandma Ruan was deep in thought, looking at the room full of juniors meaningfully.

I don't know what she feels when she looks at these few remaining Ruan family members.

After a while, she sighed and said: "The evil ghost appeared and told the ancestor that he had a chance to repent.

As long as he makes a contract with him, all the relatives of the Ruan family can be resurrected.

His own life will remain eternal.

There is just an agreement. ” "What agreement?"

Ruan Lan asked, her delicate brows raised.

I glanced at her, a little surprised.

Ruan Lan didn't even know that she was sacrificed by a close relative of the Ruan family six years ago.

Unexpectedly, he looked at Grandma Ruan, the pillar of the Ruan family, without any knowledge at all.

He suddenly felt that this old woman was not simple.

Ruan Lan didn't know that he had kept it secret from her for so long.

The uncles of the Ruan family probably only knew a little bit about it.

She had kept this huge secret all by herself for so long.

Really I was still thinking there, and Grandma Ruan took over again.

This time.

Her expression was more solemn, with a bit of caution and caution.

"The death contract of the Yin Gate is limited to a hundred years.

Once the contract expires, then" "What will happen if the appointment is over?"

Ruan Lan was anxious and couldn't help but walked up and bent down to look at Grandma Ruan.

"I've heard of that contract in the wilderness.

Does it mean that a hundred years is a time limit?

When the contract expires, what will happen to our Ruan family?"

"The whole family is extinct, the soul is excluded from the three realms, and will wander forever."

Grandma Ruan's lips wriggled a few times, and she spoke this sentence in a suppressed voice.

For a moment, the expressions of everyone in the Ruan family changed.

Ruan Lan also shuddered and took a step back.

Bai Ming'an behind him supported her.

She looked back at him, her beautiful eyes flashed, and her whole body was suddenly full of power.

She turned around and asked, "So six years ago you just He will crush me to ashes and sacrifice the other four elders.

Is this all for the sake of that contract?

Tell me now."

"Yes, yes" Grandma Ruan's breath became unstable and she couldn't sit still anymore.

She stood up from the chair and walked back and forth slightly uneasily.

She kept saying: "The family motto left by our ancestors clearly states that every generation's There must be a contractor among the children of the Ruan family, and he will lead the Ruan family out of danger."

She grabbed Ruan Lan's hand: "Lan Lan, you are the contractor in this generation, the hope of the Ruan family."

Ruan Lan's face turned pale and he couldn't say a word for a long time.

"Is that why you killed me?"

With a drop of crystal tears in the corner of her eyes, she looked up at Grandma Ruan sadly, "Is that why you ignored my wishes and let me stay in that cold place for six full years?"

Suddenly a strong wind blew outside the door, causing the lighter furniture to rustle.

Several members of the Ruan family looked at each other, all startled by the sudden movement.

I felt an obvious change in the airflow around me.

It was Ruan Lan.

I turned around in surprise and saw Bai Ming'an put his hand on Ruan Lan's shoulder.

His voice was calm, but it was calming.

He said: "Calm down, Lanlan."

Four words, one sentence, could easily resolve Ruan Lan's surging emotions.

Ruan Lan looked at him with moist eyes, calmed down, and stood next to him, close to his arm.

There was something about Ruan Lan's well-behaved look.

"The contract you mentioned should be breakable."

Bai Ming'an was very calm, his tone as cold as usual, "I think this is also the intention of the Ruan family to keep me."

A glimmer of light flashed across Grandma Ruan's eyes, but she smiled kindly: "Ming'an, you are the one Lan Lan likes, and Grandma will not harm you."

"I know."

Her words were interrupted mercilessly by Bai Ming'an, who said directly: "Six years ago, you should have known that I don't like to beat around the bush.

Just tell me what you want me to do."

"Okay.

Lanlan really saw the right person."

Grandma Ruan nodded happily, went over to hold Ruan Lan's hand, put her hand on Bai Ming'an's palm, and said firmly: "Ming'an, your master is an eminent monk in Lingyun Mountain Temple, grandma believes you can find a way."

Terminate the contract."

"Grandma" Ruan Lan raised her head in surprise, a little unbelievable.

"Good boy.

Don't worry, come Ming'an and go in with grandma to explain in detail."

Seeing that Bai Ming'an and the old woman from the Ruan family were about to be alone, I subconsciously wanted to follow them, but I was stopped by the fat woman Ruan Yuzi, who pointed her nose in the air and snorted at me.

"Why are you going?

Just stay with me, little bitch."

The last few words were spoken very softly, almost biting my ears.

They made me feel angry, but I could only suppress my anger because of the large number of Ruan family members.

This secret investigation lasted all afternoon, and no one except Ruan Lan could enter.

I waited outside with the Ruan family.

Ruan Yuzi looked at me with all kinds of mocking eyes.

I don’t know if it was because he had a fat butt and couldn’t sit still.

He stood up several times and deliberately passed me by.

Every time, he accidentally bumped into me. .

Their elbows pressed hard on my arms, or they suddenly vomited at me while I was holding tea.

If I hadn't reacted quickly and avoided it, I would have been knocked down.

It was completely dark outside, and the normal darkness covered the earth.

Another half hour later, Bai Mingan came out, and everyone in the room started to stir.

Several men from the Ruan family, led by the uncle, walked up to him and asked him what was going on.

Ruan Yuzi and several women also gathered around him chattering.

I sat in the corner and gritted my teeth.

I had been slapped several times on the face and gritted my teeth.

My face was throbbing with pain.

I was so angry that I gritted my teeth even more.

Huh, a guy who forgets his friends after seeing sex Not long after the slander, something very frustrating happened over there.

Bai Ming'an ignored the Ruan family's questions.

Walking straight towards me, I was happy in my heart but calm on my face: "We're done talking."

Come on, talk about anything.

Are you talking to the old woman about secrets, or are you using her as a shield to fall in love with Ruan Lan?

Bai Ming'an raised a cold brow and said calmly: "Let's go out and talk."

"Ah" I was stunned.

From the corner of my eye, I noticed Ruan Yuzi's face flushed with anger.

I felt so happy.

I stood up without asking any questions.

I hit his chest heavily with my palm and said with great pride: "Okay."

You name a place and we'll go."

His voice was a little rough, and he was a little deep into the drama.

Bai Mingan frowned slightly, glanced at me, and walked forward without saying a word.

I was a little embarrassed, touched my nose, and followed him.

Before setting off, Ruan Yuzi tried to chase me out to stop me, but I tripped over the threshold and fell onto my back.

I was so happy that I opened my mouth again.

She started to get up angrily but was stopped by the Ruan family uncle.

I glanced at them coldly, stopped lingering, and followed Bai Ming'an's footsteps.

This is the courtyard of the Ruan family.

Even the air inside and outside belongs to the Ruan family.

Bai Ming'an didn't bother to hide.

He just found a relatively secluded place to stop and turned his head to talk to me: "You and Song Li Aren’t you gone?

Where are the others?”

Song Li.

My heart skipped a beat.

I almost forgot about this incident.

Do you want to tell him directly:
