Ji Weihang entered the Wish Game to find her missing enemy and resolve a fifty-year-old grudge. She never expected that within the game, she'd accidentally fulfill her childhood dream of saving...
Chapter 197 Psychedelic Dream (1)
Ji Weihang walked around the house and heard the sound of breaking wind coming towards her.
The tip of the sword stopped steadily on Ji Weihang's forehead, just a few inches away.
"Why don't you hide?" Junior Sister's voice rang out, "Do you think I won't hurt you?"
When Ji Weihang took a step forward, the sword took a step back and was finally put back into the scabbard.
"You just know how to bully me." Junior Sister Ji Tianjiao sat down on a bamboo chair in the backyard angrily, "Didn't you say yesterday that you were leaving today? Why haven't you left yet?"
Ji Weihang smiled and said, "Since Senior Sister is coming down the mountain, she will naturally come to say goodbye to Junior Sister."
Ji Tianjiao glanced at her and said, "Why bother saying goodbye? Are you thinking that by saying goodbye, you can be like the senior sister and not come back once a year? Anyway, you said it last night." After a pause, she said sarcastically, "She is not wrong~ She is just too busy~"
Ji Weihang couldn't help but want to laugh: "How could I say that..."
Ji Tianjiao ignored her words and said to herself, "When you come down from the mountain, you will definitely be like her, forgetting that there is a junior sister at home. You haven't seen her for several years, and you only know to send her some random local specialties every now and then."
Ji Weihang said: "If you say that, Senior Sister will be sad. She bought those specially for us."
"I didn't say it in front of her, how would she know? What, are you going to sue me?" Ji Tianjiao raised her eyebrows and looked at Ji Weihang questioningly.
This really triggered Junior Sister's combo, but she also had a countermeasure. Ji Weihang said softly: "If I send you a specialty, will it be considered messy?"
Ji Tianjiao's face froze, and after a moment of silence, she turned her head and snorted, "You are obviously my senior sister, but you always act pitiful. Of course, I said that out of anger."
Ji Weihang climbed up the pole and said with a smile: "That's good, don't worry, I will definitely come back once every few months and will never forget you."
Ji Tianjiao looked at her and asked, "Do you swear?"
Ji Weihang: "I swear."
Ji Tianjiao's expression softened and she said, "Then remember to bring me some local specialties."
Ji Weihang said, "Of course."
Ji Tianjiao glanced at her hands under the table and said, "If you don't eat the roast chicken, it will get cold, and it won't taste good if it gets cold."
The two sisters gathered together drinking juice and eating roast chicken.
After eating the roast chicken, the two sat on bamboo chairs, looking at the bamboo forest in the backyard and relaxing leisurely.
This bamboo forest was planted by Ji Weihang and his master's wife and sisters.
Ji Tianjiao liked bamboo, but complained about the hassle of always going to the Rhythm Bamboo Forest, so they picked a day and planted a bamboo forest in her backyard while she was away.
Thinking of the past, Ji Weihang suddenly called out, "Tianjiao."
Ji Tianjiao was startled and turned to look over: "Why are you calling my name? That's weird."
Ji Weihang didn't look at her, but just looked at the bamboo forest and said, "I miss you so much."
The sudden sensational words made Ji Tianjiao's face flush instantly. She stammered, "Say, what are you talking about? We were sleeping together last night, why do you suddenly miss me so much?"
Thinking of something, Ji Tianjiao calmed down and snorted, "Oh~ Are you upset about being embarrassed by me just now? Do you want to see me make a fool of myself?"
As he said this, he touched Ji Weihang's forehead and said, "Or maybe he has a fever."
The back of my hand against my forehead feels so familiar.
Ji Weihang did not move until the other party muttered "No fever" and took his hand away. Then he smiled and said, "I just suddenly remembered that I haven't seen you for a long time, so I'm telling you in advance."
Ji Tianjiao became proud, "Ha, I knew you can't live without me." Then she jumped up nimbly, crossed the table, and threw herself into Ji Weihang's arms.
The chair tipped over backwards and the two men fell to the ground.
"Long time no see, give me a hug."
Because of the clothes blocking her voice, the junior sister's mumbling became a little unclear.
Ji Weihang hugged his junior sister, patted her hesitantly, and said softly: "Then, hold one."
…
"Alright, alright, Senior Sister, please go now! I need to continue practicing my sword skills!"
After hugging her, she felt embarrassed again. Ji Tianjiao pushed Ji Weihang towards the front yard and said, "You should go to see the master's wife. I won't go. She said that I can't go to see her until I reach the third level of practice, otherwise she will make me go into seclusion."
Ji Weihang walked towards the front yard under the push of his junior sister, saying, "Master's wife is doing this for your own good. You are really too lazy. After I leave, you must concentrate on practicing sword skills."
"I know, I know." Ji Tianjiao said perfunctorily, pushing her sister onto the mountain path, and said, "Okay, I'm going to practice swordplay, sister, you should go quickly."
Ji Weihang waved her hand and walked along the mountain path towards the pavilion on the top of the mountain. From there she wanted to take a crane to where her master's wife was.
"Senior Sister, have a safe journey." Ji Tianjiao's blessing floated into Ji Weihang's ears along with the wind.
Ji Weihang smiled and said, "Why did you wait until I left to tell you? Are you embarrassed to say it to my face? Or are you reluctant to leave me?"
Ji Tianjiao: "Stop annoying me, I'm going to practice swordplay."
…
When Ji Weihang arrived at the Master's wife's residence, Ji Kunling was planting flowers.
Seeing his disciple coming up the path, Ji Kunling straightened up and said, "I thought you would chat with Tianjiao for a while longer."
Ji Weihang smiled and said, "She'll cry if we talk any more."
Ji Kunling smiled and said, "She will be unhappy again when she hears this."
Ji Weihang stood beside the flower field, staring at Ji Kunling in the middle of the field. It was not until Ji Kunling asked, "What's wrong?" that he spoke, "Master's wife, what did you think when you found me by the Bixu River?"
Ji Kunling glanced at his disciple who was about to leave, put down the kettle in his hand, thought carefully for a moment, and said, "My destined child."
Ji Weihang: “Hmm?”
Ji Kunling walked towards her across the flower field: "At that time, I failed to advance due to my inner demons, and was immersed in self-loathing and pain. I felt that my life seemed to be out of my control, so I relied on controlling my daily life to find direction. Therefore, every morning, I went to the river to wash clothes. It was at that time that I picked you up.
“You are so small, yet you relied on the reeds, floated alone across a long distance and time, and came to me.
"I think there is nothing better than this to prove that if you can't completely control your life, you will find a way out even if you just go with the flow."
Ji Kunling stopped in front of Ji Weihang and looked into those red eyes. Her brown eyes were filled with a gentle smile. "At that time, I thought that you must be a gift from the Mother Goddess, the child destined for me."
Ji Weihang looked at his master's wife, was silent for two seconds, and said, "Then you are also the destined mother given to me by the Mother Goddess."
Ji Kunling smiled, held the back of Ji Weihang's head with one hand, gently kissed the child's forehead, then pressed her hand to make her lower her head, rested her chin on the top of her head, and whispered:
"Now, you are about to embark on a new journey. As your wife, I wish you can achieve whatever you want to achieve and become whoever you want to be."
Ji Weihang was almost held in the other's arms. He looked at the other's hem, listened to the other's steady heartbeat, felt the other's warm body temperature, and whispered, "I will."
Ji Kunling released her hand and her voice returned to normal, "If you encounter a problem that you cannot solve, please ask your aunts for help. Don't be embarrassed."
Ji Weihang hummed, "I know."
Ji Kunling turned around and walked towards the flower field again, saying, "Let's go, there's no need to go to your aunt's place, she hasn't come back yet."
Ji Weihang looked at the back of Master's wife and said, "Master's wife, if I fail to live up to your expectations one day, will you be sad?"
Ji Kunling walked to the original position without stopping, picked up the kettle, and said, "What does my expectation have to do with you? How can you disappoint me?"
After a moment of silence, Ji Weihang said, "I understand."
…
When Ji Weihang arrived at the mountain gate, someone was already waiting there.
Li Ji, who was wearing green clothes and had his hair tied up with vines, stuffed a bundle into Ji Weihang's arms and spoke a series of words:
"I've been waiting for you for a long time. Here, these are the extra medicines I prepared.
“After thinking it over, I felt that the medicine I gave you a few days ago was not complete enough, so I went back to refine some rare pills and powders.
"Don't get poisoned by someone else's medicine outside. If I tell others about this, how can I put my face down? They will definitely say that I have neglected my time to make medicine because of raising animals."
Ji Weihang held the bag and said helplessly: "Senior sister, it's not that easy for me to be tricked. I have a magic treasure that can automatically detect poison."
Li Ji crossed his arms over his chest and said confidently, "There must be some negligence. How can Lingbao detect all the drugs that may have problems? Besides, it is possible that the drugs others put in are not poisons, but just drugs that make you sleepless. You don't have to worry about having too many drugs. You can take them. It's nothing."
Ji Weihang could only put away his bag and said, "Thank you very much, Senior Sister."
Seeing her packing up her bag, Li Ji nodded with satisfaction and said, "Then I'll go back. I still need to cultivate feelings with the new spirit deer."
As he said that, he ran up the mountain and waved his hand, saying, "I won't say goodbye to you. I can't stand that scene. I wish you a safe journey! Kunpeng will definitely guide you in the direction of progress!"
"Okay!" Ji Weihang responded, and when he could no longer see the other person's back, he walked towards Bixu Town.
As soon as I stepped into Bixu Town, a figure rushed out, "Sister Weihang! I heard you were going to travel!"
Fu Xuan stood in front of Ji Weihang, raised his head, and looked at her with sparkling eyes, "Will you write to me?"
Ji Weihang squatted down to be level with Fu Xuan. She smiled and said, "Of course I will write to you. I will tell you about the scenery I saw, the stories I heard, and the things I experienced."
"Great!" Fu Xuan, who was only six years old, cheered and said seriously, "I will work hard to learn to read! When I grow up, can you take me on adventures?"
Ji Weihang looked at the child and said with a smile, "Of course. Besides, I believe that Fu Xuan will become an adult who can go on adventures on his own in the future!"
"Really? Really?" The child did not doubt her sister's words at all, and said happily to the old lady next to him, "Grandma! Sister Weihang said that I will become an adult who can go on adventures on my own in the future! Just as awesome as my sister!"
Grandma Fu smiled and said, "Is that so? Then, Xiaoxuan will also have to send a letter to Grandma."
Fu Xuan said loudly: "I will definitely do it!"
Grandma Fu stretched out her hand and said, "Come, go back and learn to read, don't delay your sister's departure."
Fu Xuan turned around and said to Ji Weihang, "Goodbye, sister. I'm going back now."
Ji Weihang said, "Goodbye."
Fu Xuan walked over, held her hand, and skipped home. After walking for a while, he turned back and said loudly, "Remember to write to me!"
Ji Weihang smiled and said, "I will definitely remember it."
Fu Xuan turned his head and accepted his grandmother's nagging: "You are causing too much trouble to Sister Weihang. She has to write letters to her master and you. How tiring it is for her."
"Hey, I seem a little tired..."
Fu Xuan quickly turned around and said to Ji Weihang who was standing there, "If you are very tired, you can write less..." After being patted on the hand by grandma, she paused and added, "It's okay not to write!"
Ji Weihang smiled and said, "I know."
"Grandma, do you think that after I said this, will Sister Weihang still write letters? Will she be like Sister Shu next door? Her mother said that she didn't have to work, so she just stayed at home playing..."
"Shh... don't talk about others behind their backs."
"Oh...but I didn't say anything bad, and grandma, you haven't answered my question yet."
“…”
The grandparents and grandchildren gradually drifted away.
Ji Weihang did not leave Bixu Town to start a new journey, but came to the Bixu River, staring at the quietly flowing river in a trance.
I don’t know how long it took, the sky turned from white to black, and then from black to white.
When night fell again, Ji Weihang finally moved. She exhaled and murmured to herself: "It is nothingness, and it is also a dream."
She took out the sleeping pills from her bag and swallowed them. While still conscious, she fell into the river with a splash.
As the water rose above her head, she sank into the deadly darkness.
