Chapter 97
"Liu'er, if you don't want to marry me, just tell me, I will still treat you as a younger sister and take care of you for the rest of your life." In the inn, Wang Zijin and Liu'er were talking to each other.

"Prince, although my health is not good, I know what happened recently. When you fled that terrible mansion with the young me in your arms that day, I recognized you. No matter where you go, I They will follow you..." Liu'er replied weakly, under the candlelight, her face was as white as a beautiful jade, her brows and eyes were handsome and soft, which was very similar to Feixiao, only a little more graceful.

Wang Zijin held her hand excitedly, afraid that she would disappear if he let go.

The door of the inn was pushed open a narrow gap, and a pair of red and phoenix eyes were staring at everything in the room.Scarlet clothed in white clothes like snow, seeing the affectionate eyes of Wang Zijin and Liu Er, an elusive smile appeared on her lips.

He watched for a while, then retreated quietly, as silent as the night wind.

Seven days later, when Liu'er was in good health, Wang Zijin and Fei Xiao took her on the journey. The two rented a comfortable cart from the mules and horses, and walked out of the city gate in the early morning.

In the thin morning mist, only a few ornately decorated carriages stood beside the city gate.The leader was a middle-aged man riding on a steed. It was Governor Yang. His gray hair was growing and his energy was listless.

When Wang Zijin approached them, Governor Yang rushed forward and said, "May I see Liu'er?"

"I didn't marry Liu Er, she is still your daughter!" Wang Zijin hurriedly stepped aside.

After hearing this, Governor Yang dismounted and walked to the car, "Liu Er, how is your health?"

"I'm sorry to trouble my father, I'm much better now..." Liu'er responded coldly from the car, and she didn't even open the curtains.

"Liu'er, can I let Dad take another look at you?" Seeing this, Governor Yang immediately had cloudy old tears overflowing from the corners of his eyes, "After this farewell, I don't know when we will see you again..."

There was no sound in the car for a long time, and after a while, the bamboo curtain was slowly opened, revealing a bright and sad face.

Liu'er looked at the old Governor Yang with tears in her beautiful eyes, and finally burst into tears, "Father, you will always be my father! Even if you have done too many things to sorry me, I still can't hate you." you!"

"Liu'er, you have to be obedient when you marry, don't be self-willed like you are at home..." Governor Yang wiped the tears off her face, "Father can't stay with you all the time..."

The father and daughter cried in each other's arms, and it was time to open the city gate in a blink of an eye.The gates of the city opened slowly, and the people and traders who entered and left the city in the morning light came and went like a shuttle.

"Liu'er, it's time to leave. Father has prepared a lot of dowry for you. You won't suffer." Governor Yang pointed at the carts behind him and said to his daughter with a forced smile.

Liu'er tugged on her father's sleeve and refused to let go.

"It's time to set off!" Fei Xiao said coldly in the morning breeze, and rode her horse ahead.

Wang Zijin had no choice but to ride his horse forward to keep up with his footsteps.

Fei Xiao's face was always cold, as if the sadness of parting had nothing to do with him, and she set off precisely at the planned time, without even looking at the other father and daughter who were talking.

Governor Yang was reluctant to part with him, and followed the carriage for more than ten miles before giving up.In the morning light, he rode a horse and stood on a high place, looking at the convoy, his purple brocade robe fluttering in the wind.

Wang Zijin looked at his gray temples with a haggard expression, and couldn't help feeling sorry for him.

When he was far away, he looked back and saw an old figure standing on the official road. That shadow was lonely and lonely, like a lighthouse in the waves, and finally disappeared.

This is the last scenery Wang Zijin saw in Yangzhou.


Liu'er is not in good health, the three of them walked and rested while traveling, and it was early winter when they arrived at Wang Zijin's hometown.The prince already has more than ten acres of Susukida when he enters the house, plus Liu'er's dowry, it is already considered rich.

His old mother, who was over fifty years old, was unhappy when she saw that her son had failed the imperial examination and had been playing around for two years, but when she saw that he brought back a beautiful girl, she stopped talking.

Liu'er's body has not yet fully recovered, and Wang Zijin's marriage has never been held. He is happy and leisurely, playing chess and drinking with Fei Xiao and Liu'er every day.

"Oh..." Wang Zijin looked at the pair of Bi people in front of him in the cold wind, "Why do you two look so alike? My mother saw me that day and thought I brought back a pair of twin sisters in one go."

"The resemblance is not good? Let's say Mr. Hu is my elder brother, who dares to bully me?" Liu'er covered her mouth and snickered.

Fei Xiao didn't answer, watching the two of them play chess while she drank beside her, her two sword eyebrows locked together, obviously she had something on her mind.

Wang Zijin wanted to ask, but seeing Liu'er at the side, it was difficult to speak, so he swallowed the words abruptly, but there was a hint of ominous premonition in his heart.

That night, Zijin ran into Feixiao's room to find out what happened, but when he opened the door, he saw Feixiao wearing a brocade white robe, sitting at the table waiting for him, as if she hadn't gone to bed.

"Fei Xiao, what's the matter with you? You're still up so late?"

Fei Xiao smiled slightly, her red lips were like blood, "I'm not the only one who hasn't slept so late, why not yourself?"

"Fei Xiao, what's on your mind?" Wang Zijin asked cautiously.

Fei Xiao sighed and said, "Zi Jin, do you remember that you said before that if you face two identical faces every day, you will feel pain?"

Wang Zijin shook his head again and again, "That's just a joke, besides, you and Liu'er are not exactly the same, they just look similar..."

Fei Xiao waved her hands, as if to stop him from continuing, "I told you that day that I would use a spell to turn two faces into one face, do you remember?"

Wang Zijin couldn't help scratching his head, apparently forgot, the two of them babbled a lot every day, how could he remember all of them?

"Tomorrow I'm going to use the spell that can change a face, Zijin, you have to do it yourself..." Fei Xiao stood up with a smile, her phoenix eyes were full of energy, and stared at him, "I'm going to rest, I'll talk about things tomorrow .”

The eviction order is issued.

Wang Zijin couldn't help feeling sorry for her, since she met her, Fei Hong's indifference was always towards others, and she always had a playful smile when facing him, kind and warm, never treated him like this.

He had no choice but to go out dejectedly. Before leaving, he still felt a dull pain in his heart. He turned around and said, "Fei Xiao, if you have any difficulties, you must tell me..."

Under the light, Fei Xiao nodded and smiled at him, and the bright candlelight dyed his snow-white brocade robe golden, as if drawing a golden halo around the person in the painting.

Wang Zijin felt that he had turned into a beautiful portrait, so beautiful that it was unreal, and so beautiful that people dare not approach it.

Ashamed of himself, he walked out with his head down, but he didn't know that it was the last time he saw Fei Xiao.

That night, Wang Zijin tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep, and in a daze, dreamed that he was on a boat, vaguely the ferry boat when he met Fei Xiao for the first time when rushing for the exam the year before last.

What about Scarlet?Where is Scarlet?
He felt empty in his heart, and looked for Feihong everywhere, from the bow to the stern of the boat, but the river was filled with fog, and he was the only shadow on the boat. How could there be that young man in white who looked like a spring flower?
While he was in a hurry, he heard the sound of a flute coming from the thick fog. The tune was very pleasant, with ups and downs, opening and closing, it was "Moon Night on the Spring River".

Wang Zijin listened to this familiar music, and the past came to his mind.He couldn't help walking along the sound of the music, and saw a beautiful young man in white standing at the bow of the boat, his skirt fluttering in the wind, his red lips slightly parted, playing the green jade flute.

When the young man saw him, he turned his head and smiled and said, "Zi Jin, you are here."

"Fei Xiao, I've been looking for you so hard..." Wang Zijin immediately ran towards him with elation.

Fei Xiao took the flute and said: "Zi Jin, I'm leaving, and I may not be back until five years later, you must take good care of yourself."

"Why?" Prince Jin asked urgently, "Isn't it good for you and me?"

"Zi Jin, I am a demon myself, how can I stay with you all the time? Now that you are safe and well, and you have received a beautiful family like a flower, I can go to practice with peace of mind..."

When Wang Zijin heard this, he couldn't help but burst into tears, "Fei Xiao, is it safe and sound? Isn't it good that you and I will be together for the rest of our lives?"

Fei Xiao smiled lightly and shook her head, "How can there be such a simple thing? I have already calculated that there will be a catastrophe in your [-]s, and you must find a way to help you out of it. If you escape the catastrophe this time, you will be safe in this life." I'm safe and sound, and I can die well..."

"No! Don't!" Wang Ziqi yelled anxiously, "I don't want a good death, I just want to be happy with you and Liu'er, this kind of fairy life, every day counts!"

Fei Xiao shook her head and said: "Zi Jin, don't be childish, I will leave the golden bell to you, ordinary monsters dare not offend you, I have to go, you and I will meet later."

The prince entered and saw a thick fog floating in the center of the river, submerging Feixiao's elegant figure like a tide, and hurried up to grab him.

"Don't go!" He yelled loudly, but he stepped on the ground and fell into the river.I just felt cold all over and woke up instantly, but it was Nan Keyimeng.

Prince Jin touched his cheek, it was wet and cold, and his face was full of tears. Looking at the sky outside the window, it was just dawning with a hazy light.

He didn't even bother to put on his shoes, and ran barefoot into Feihong's room, hoping that when he opened the door, the boy in white clothes like snow would still be waiting for him with a smile as before.

He shivered and pushed open the door of Feihong's room, but there was no one in the room, the brocade quilt carefully prepared for him was exceptionally neat, without any trace of anyone having slept on it.

"Fei Hong! Fei Hao! Where are you?" Wang Zijin yelled in a hurry, but no one in the room responded. On the small table next to him, there was a small golden light shining, which was the golden light that Fei Hao had given him. bell.

He grabbed the golden bell and ran frantically to the door, yelling hoarsely: "Do you think...do you think you can use this crap to perfuse me?"

He ran out of the courtyard in one breath, only to see thin snowflakes floating in the light gray sky, dyeing everything on the earth into pure white.

Prince Jin stepped on the icy snow with bare feet, but he didn't feel cold.He hurriedly ran towards the gate, pushed the gate open, and saw a white, empty street with no pedestrians in sight, where was the shadow of Fei Hong?

Seeing this, Wang Zijin felt sore and sad, squatted on the ground, and burst into tears.

On this bleak winter morning, when the first snow came, Scarlet disappeared with the falling snow.

Time flies by, five years have passed in a blink of an eye, Wang Zijin is now the father of two children, and he has grown a beard, he and Liu Er are both dissatisfied with the world, and have no interest in fame and fortune. Life is very happy and comfortable.

It's just that sometimes the night is quiet, and Wang Zijin will think of the past when he was young, all kinds of strange and strange experiences in the spring, autumn and moon.

It was like a daydream, as time passed by, it gradually became blurred and yellowed, and became less and less clear, but in this beautiful dream, there was always a young man in white with picturesque eyes, smiling softly at himself.

It's just that five years passed quickly, but Fei Xiao did not appear as promised.Seeing that winter is approaching and the flowers bloom again in spring, Wang Zijin's heart cools down with the colorful colors.

"Zijin, have you heard? Another person died in the Mekong River. People are always drowning in this river recently..." Liuer said casually while she was working as a female celebrity.

Wang Zijin didn't take it seriously, looked at the spring scenery outside the window, and said yearningly: "Really? I'm afraid some monsters are causing trouble. It would be great if Feixiao was here..."

"Feixiao? It's Feihong again!" Liu'er suddenly put down her needle and thread, and said indignantly, "How can there be so many monsters in this world? You say this name day and night, but you don't see him come back to see you."

The prince was not happy to see her, and hurriedly said: "Fei Xiao is my friend, he is the one who made the marriage between you and me, and we have to thank him."

"Zijin." Liu'er in Chunguang suddenly raised her head, her almond eyes were frosty, she stared at him and said word by word, "I ask you, did you marry me because I look like him?"

His eyes were like knives and arrows, as if they pierced straight to the bottom of his heart.

"No, of course not!" Wang Zijin hurriedly shook his head in panic, "I fell in love with you at first sight when I saw you in the night market that night, what has it to do with him?"

"Is this true?" The thin ice in Liu'er's eyes dissipated and turned into spring water again.

"Of course, if my prince Jin has the slightest lie, he will definitely not have a good death!" He swore to the sky, but he said in his heart, anyway, he will not have a good death in this life, so it doesn't matter if he swears casually.

Liu'er was very happy, she snuggled into his arms and smiled happily.Wang Zijin embraced her slender and soft body, watching Yanyu Yingge outside the window, his heart was full of joy.

Fei Xiao, Fei Xiao, perhaps only a person in the sky, it's better not to tire him into the world because of yourself.

Two years later, Wang Zijin was already 30 years old.He no longer has any expectations for Fei Hong's return. In the middle of winter, people drowned almost every month on the Rumei River five miles away from home. Even if he likes boating and fishing on the river, he dare not approach that river again. half point.

On a winter afternoon, the prince read a book in the study, but fell asleep in the smoky incense.

"Uncle, uncle." He heard a clear and clear child's voice calling him, and when he lowered his head, he saw a child tugging at his sleeve.

"You naughty boy, why do you want to find uncle?" He saw that the boy was combing his horns, he was very cute, so he teased him to play.

Hearing his question, the boy's big dark eyes were instantly clouded with water vapor, "Uncle, I can't find where my home is..."

"Hehe, so that's how it is." Wang Zijin smiled and said, "Uncle will send you home, think about where is your home?"

"Okay." He replied crisply, took Wang Zijin's hand and walked all the way, pointing to the distance, "It seems to be over there."

Wang Zijin walked farther and farther, only to feel that the road was full of potholes and it was very difficult to walk, and the soil on the road was gradually damp, and his feet seemed to be covered with a layer of water vapor.

He saw nothing before him, and he couldn't help wondering, "Where are we going?"

"It's here." The boy pointed to a strip of light in front of him.

I saw a majestic river suddenly appearing in front of my eyes. The surface of the river was sparkling, reflecting the moonlight. It seemed that countless broken diamonds were sprinkled on the ground, and it seemed that the Milky Way in the sky was moved to the human world. It was really beautiful.

Wang Zijin looked at the deserted scenery on the river bank and said: "This river is very beautiful, but there seems to be no one living around here. How can there be your home?"

"Uncle, you know, I like uncle the most." The boy tilted his head to look at him, with an innocent smile on his face.

"Huh?" Wang Zijin was secretly delighted, "Why?"

"Uncle, do you know? My home is in this river, the river is so cold and icy, I'm bored to death at the bottom of the river every day."

Hearing this, Wang Zijin seemed to have some reason, and it was an extremely terrible and bad name, only to hear the boy still smile and say: "But now it's my uncle's turn, and my uncle will live in the river for me. Already!"

"What did you say?" Wang Zijin couldn't help being shocked when he heard it, and suddenly understood something, he hurriedly shook his hand, turned around and ran away.

But the boy said again: "Uncle, you are the thousandth person who drowned in the Rumei River in the past hundred years. Don't come too late, otherwise, the river will freeze. It's sad when you're drowning..."

Accompanied by his innocent and childish voice, Wang Zijin suddenly found that he could not lift his feet.

As soon as he lowered his head, he saw a pair of hands stretched out from the water, firmly grasping his ankle.Not only that, but there was also a woman's head popping out, her hair was soaked, her face was livid, she was not alive at first glance.

"Huh? What is this?"

"Hehe, it will be fine in a while. This is my water demon. They will come to pick you up. It will be fine in a while, and you will feel nothing soon..." The boy laughed while clapping his hands.

Wang Zijin looked up and saw hundreds of water monsters appearing one after another in the river. The river surface was still beautiful just now, but in a blink of an eye it turned into a group of demons dancing wildly and looking like a hell in the last days.

The water ghosts grinned grinningly, and one by one pulled his sleeve or his arm, trying to drag him into the river.

"No, don't..." Before Wang Zijin could finish his sentence, he felt that the icy river had submerged him until he was submerged.
