"Wait," Cheng Muyou asked after him, "what did you say you saw last night?"
” Wang Zhiyu suddenly turned his head, grabbed Cheng Muyou's sleeve with both hands, and a strange light flashed in his eyes, "She rose from the water, her clothes were wet, and her body was swollen with water," he suddenly covered his eyes, "Snake, snake, and a snake." ” Cheng Muyou fiercely pulled his hands off his eyes, "What snake, you can make it clear." ” "On her forehead, a snake was branded......"
Hearing his crazy words, Cheng Muyou didn't know how to respond for a while, but fortunately, Yan Niang stepped forward, looked at Wang Zhiyu with a smile and said, "Can the dream be true?"
You're such an idiot. ” "Who said it was a dream?"
Wang Zhiyu yelled, startling a few people next to him, he grabbed Yan Niang's arm and rushed out, muttering some crazy things that others couldn't understand.
Cheng Muyou and the three of them followed them out of the inn, and found that Wang Zhiyu pulled Yan Niang all the way to Quanhu, behind them was the Jing family's mansion, at this moment, the pagoda in the center of the house was shining peacefully in the afterglow of the setting sun.
"Let go, you're tearing me apart."
Yan Niang didn't spend much effort to shake off the hand that was still holding her, because Wang Zhiyu walked towards the water in a daze as soon as she saw Quanhu, and didn't stop until the lower edge of her robe was wet.
"Ji Yao has never had a moment of happiness in her life," he looked at the sparkling lake, and a wry smile appeared on his face, "Her parents treat their daughter as a cash cow and are bent on marrying her to a large family as a concubine in exchange for a large dowry."
After learning that the two of us were in love, Ji Yao was locked up in the attic and denied food.
Her parents even came to my door every day to accuse and scold Huai, which scared my mother so much that she didn't dare to go out all day long.
Three days later, Ji Yao jumped from the attic and broke a broken foot, and the big family saw that she was crippled, and the next day they asked the matchmaker to withdraw from the marriage, and her parents also saw Ji Yao's fierceness, and they didn't dare to go against her will, and reluctantly agreed to marry their daughter to me.
On the day the matchmaker told me that her parents had promised to marry, I felt that I was about to fly to the sky happily, although the price was so tragic, but the result was a happy one, and I vowed to love her for the rest of my life, and I would find a cure for her by looking for famous doctors all over the world.
But I never imagined that one day I would use my feet to step through the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, but it was to find her. ” The afterglow of the setting sun gradually dimmed, and the light on the water also retreated from far and near, just like Wang Zhiyu's eyes full of despair.
"The last time I saw her was at the Lantern Festival two years ago, when the two of us were engaged, but according to the rules, we still can't meet in private, I know that she likes to see lanterns, so I waited there early before the lantern festival started, just to catch a glimpse of her across the crowd.
Ji Yao was so beautiful that day, she wore a snow-blue dress, just like you, girl," he looked at Yan Niang stupidly, as if she had turned into the woman he was thinking about, "I looked at her eyes, and felt that those eyes were brighter than the stars in the sky, and it saw straight into my heart, so that I could not forget it for the rest of my life."
Wang Zhiyu smiled, he seemed to have been immersed in his dream, and he did not want to wake up for eternity.
"And then?"
Cheng Muyou couldn't help but interrupt his memories.
"Later?"
Wang Zhiyu shook his head as if he had just woken up, his face was pale and blue, as if he could faint at any time, "She's gone." ” "Gone?"
The female companion who traveled with her said that she and Jiyao were separated by the crowd and never saw her again.
During that time, there were a few outsiders in the town, so they all said that Ji Yao was taken away by those people. ” "So you've searched the entire territory over the years?"
Cheng Muyou's tone changed, there was sympathy and a little admiration in it.
Wang Zhiyu smiled, tears of laughter, he looked at Cheng Muyou, "Do you know?
A few days ago, I actually met those outsiders on the street, they ......"
He covered his face, but he couldn't hold back the laughter still leaked out of his fingers little by little, "They are not human traffickers at all, and they have never seen Ji Yao, it turns out that what I have been looking for in the past few years is simply a bamboo basket to draw water, ha......
Haha......"
"Tell me what happened last night."
Yan Niang asked quietly.
"Yesterday I bought a pot of wine, drank and walked all the way, and before I knew it, I fell asleep by the lake, and when I was woken up by the rain, it was already late at night.
Looking at the rippling lake, I suddenly felt sad and crawled on the edge of the lake and began to cry loudly.
At this moment, the lake suddenly moved, and split into two halves from the middle, and I saw Ji Yao standing in the middle of the water, crying and saying something to me, if it weren't for the evil black snake on her forehead, I would almost have thought that she had become a fairy in the sky, and came to the mortal world to comfort my soulless body. ” "What did she say to you?"
Yan Niang stared at his dead white face and asked softly.
"I can't remember, I had a terrible headache, it was about to blow up, no, I should have heard what she said, but because I was drunk, I forgot when I woke up, I only remember that I threw myself into the water and swam towards her with all my might, but until my arms and legs were so sore that I couldn't lift it at all, Ji Yao was still separated from me by layers of lake water, and I could never touch her.
I thought I was going to die in this spring lake, so I simply gave up struggling, I thought, this may be the best ending, for me and Jiyao, it is the same.
However, I was spotted by two passing townspeople, who rescued me and sent me home.
He covered his face, and his faint voice gradually turned into a roar and a roar, "Why do you want to save me?"
I've lived enough, let me go with her.
As he spoke, he rushed towards the spring lake, what kind of person is Shi Fei Shi Jin, how can he allow him to commit suicide in front of him, the brothers pulled Wang Zhiyu's arm left and right, and pushed him to the bank of the river.
"Wretched," Yan Niang walked to Wang Zhiyu's side from behind, her skirt swept across his face, "Not to mention that there is still an old lady at home waiting for you to support, and until now you haven't even figured out the cause of Ji Yao's death, you just want to leave your life behind," she squatted down, hooked her index finger to Wang Zhiyu's chin, and said word by word, "Death is the easiest thing in the world, but it is also the most useless thing, don't you want to know who printed that snake on her forehead?"
