See you again
Now that the weather is getting hotter, Li Pingan parked his motorcycle under a familiar big tree, lay on the motorcycle, and mechanically browsed his mobile phone.
"Hi, Li Ping'an." A man on a motorcycle passed by and then fell back.
Li Pingan looked up and saw that it was A Liang, whom he had met while running errands. "What's wrong?"
The relationship between them is just an acquaintance, nothing more than that.
"Why do you look so bad?" Aliang has a very dark complexion, which makes his teeth look very white.
The white teeth caught Li Ping'an's eyes, and Li Ping'an said "Hmm?" in confusion.
A Liang thought for a moment and added, "You look very bad. Why don't you go home and rest?"
After saying that, regardless of Li Pingan's reaction, "Oh, I'm going to be out of time. Let's go."
Watching Aliang's motorcycle disappear from sight, Li Pingan looked at himself carefully in the rearview mirror.
Her face was a little paler and her lips were a little pale, but she had previously thought that this was because her skin had improved. After all, she had been exposed to the wind and sun before, and her skin was not very good.
Do I really need to take a break?
But thinking about how he would easily become crazy when he was idle, Li Ping'an hesitated again, and kept hesitating until it was getting dark.
Normally, Li Ping'an would not finish work until ten o'clock in the evening, but today she thought about it and decided to pack up and go home.
It wasn't because of her physical condition, she actually felt that she was in good health.
The main thing was that her heart was beating "bang bang" all the time, and she couldn't tell why, as if something big was about to happen.
Li Ping'an returned home carrying two bags of instant noodles. As soon as he entered the door, he felt something was wrong.
She remembered that the money tree on her balcony had died a long time ago, so how come she seemed to see green again in the blink of an eye?
After closing the door and placing the instant noodles on the table in the middle of the living room, Li Ping'an went to the balcony. Looking at the plants in the pots, Li Ping'an identified them for a long time with a frown. How could there be a peach tree here?
Peach tree?!
The more Li Ping'an thought about it, the more his hands trembled, and he almost tore off the leaf in his hand.
"Ouch, it hurts." A faint voice came from inside the peach tree.
The voice was very soft, but Li Pingan recognized it. It was Annie's voice.
"Annie, is that you? Annie?" Li Pingan asked, suppressing his excitement.
"Ah, Ping'an, you're back!" Annie's excited voice came from the peach tree.
Li Pingan quickly brought the tree in with the pot and brushed off the dust on the leaves.
"Annie, I'm so glad you're okay!"
Li Pingan became excited. "I'll make you something delicious. What do you want to eat?"
"Ping An," Annie's voice was a little softer, "I probably can't eat right now."
"I don't know what happened. I woke up like this." Anne felt like she had a very long dream. The dream was blank. She kept walking tirelessly. Suddenly, someone called her name. Anne subconsciously nodded.
In just a blink of an eye, the scene in front of her eyes changed. The low buildings and the mottled security windows were covered with stains left by time. She wanted to move, but she couldn't.
Annie thought that her soul had been kidnapped and imprisoned somewhere, and would be refined soon.
Before Li Ping'an came back, she called for a long time but there was no response.
When Li Ping'an opened the door, he scared Annie. Annie thought the person who came was a bad guy, so she quickly closed her eyes and calmed down.
Until Li Ping'an almost picked the leaf off uncontrollably, the pain made her unable to help but cry out in a low voice, and at the same time she opened her eyes.
"Ping An, I'm a little tired. I want to sleep for a while."
Annie was actually weak due to damage to her soul, but she didn't understand and just thought she was sleepy.
Li Pingan didn't understand either. After hearing Annie say that, he let her go to sleep. "Okay, Annie, go to sleep."
After Li Ping'an said this, Annie became silent.
But soon, Li Pingan discovered something was wrong. The peach tree in the pot was slowly withering, and the leaves began to turn yellow. Seeing this, Li Pingan hurriedly shook the pot and said, "Annie, Annie, don't sleep yet."
After being woken up, Annie was puzzled and asked, "What's wrong? Ping'an." Her voice was so thin that it seemed like it could be blown away by the wind.
"Annie, your peach tree is going to wither." Li Ping'an said hurriedly.
Annie was very sleepy at this time. When she heard Li Ping'an say this, she said, "Oh, it's withered."
As she spoke, Annie wanted to fall asleep again.
Although Li Ping'an didn't understand this matter, the withered appearance of the peach tree was not a good sign.
What should I do? Should I fertilize the peach tree? Or should I burn incense and paper for Annie?
Just as Li Ping'an's thoughts were racing, a familiar voice rang out, "How come he's just been saved, but he's dying again?"
This voice sounded much more powerful than Anne's, and it was also an old acquaintance.
Although Anding's soul was also damaged, he was still much better than Annie. At least he could transform into a human form in front of Li Ping'an.
Still looking androgynous, she glanced around Li Ping'an's living room and said, "Your house is so small."
Although Li Pingan didn't like to listen to him, he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw him. "Go and see what happened to Annie."
Anding glanced at the peach tree and said, "Her soul is too severely damaged. She can only live in the peach tree and slowly nurture herself."
After hearing what Anding said, Li Ping felt relieved.
"When will she wake up?"
But Anding's next words made her heart jump to her throat again, "I don't know about that. It could be ten to five years."
"Is there no other way? How did you get better so quickly?" Anding's soul was torn into pieces and he was so weak at that time, so how come he can be so lively now?
Anding pointed at the peach tree in the pot and said, "I'm a thousand-year-old ghost. How can she compare with me?" More importantly, Anding didn't say it out loud.
"There are definitely other ways, but they're not quite right."
"What method?"
"With blood."
"How many?"
Anding gestured with his hands, but Li Pingan didn't understand. He picked up the empty mineral water bottle on the table and asked, "This much, is it enough?"
"You won't need this much," Anding said, twisting the cap off the mineral water bottle. "This is enough."
The blood flowed down along the roots of the peach tree, soaked the soil, and disappeared. Li Ping'an seemed to see something flash under the soil, but when he was about to take a closer look, it disappeared again.
But in a moment, the leaves on the peach tree that were about to dry up stretched out, and Anne's voice came, "Peace," sounding much more powerful.
After hearing this, Li Pingan's worry disappeared from his face and he smiled, "Annie, how do you feel now?"
"I feel much better after a good sleep."
Li Ping'an looked at the wound on his hand and was amazed that his blood was more effective than fertilizer. It was really amazing.
It seemed that Annie didn't know what had just happened, and Li Ping'an didn't plan to tell her. Instead, she turned to look at Anding beside her. She had a lot of questions she wanted to ask, but she didn't know where to start.
Sensing Li Ping'an's doubts, Anding floated to the table, picked up the instant noodles on it, and seemed to be staring at the instant noodles, but said in his mouth,
"That day, my soul was severely damaged, so I concealed my breath and watched the battle from the side. I originally wanted to defeat him by surprise, but..." At this point, Anding raised his eyes and looked at Li Pingan and the peach tree.
"I didn't expect you to be so powerful that you could actually insert peach branches into his limbs and heart."
"Seeing that everything was over, I took Anne's soul away when she was dying and kept it in the peach tree."
At this point, Anding explained: "It's not that I didn't want to save you, it's just that I was powerless." He accumulated strength in order to give Yao a fatal blow.
Li Pingan and Annie didn't care about this and gestured for him to continue.
"But," Anding looked at Li Ping'an and frowned, "I want to ask, how did you come up with the idea of burning Annie's body and the dead peach tree together." If he hadn't reacted quickly, he would have almost been burned to death with all his belongings in Li Ping'an's fire.
Li Pingan was silent. She didn't know how to explain her behavior at that time.
Anne was unhappy when she saw this scene. Although she couldn't leave the peach tree yet, she could still move her mouth. "I advise you not to be ungrateful. Ping An thought of you and gave you face."
After thinking about it, he realized that it was him who saved his life, so he added, "Ping An's behavior is at best good intentions with bad results."
Anding looked at Annie, who had lost her human form, and was too lazy to argue with her. He continued, "In a desperate situation, I could only take my peach tree and Annie into the necklace."
Then, Li Ping'an knew it without him saying anything. She took the necklace and returned to her own world, and Anding and Annie followed her.
"When Annie and I came here, our souls were severely damaged and we had been in a coma until last night when we absorbed your blood and recovered a little." After Anding was able to move again, he quickly moved his peach tree and Annie into the flowerpot.
"Why didn't you say anything when I was calling you for so long?" Annie felt angry when she thought about how she had cried for help at the top of her lungs that afternoon.
Anding put down the instant noodles in his hand and pointed at the peach tree, "When I woke up, you were still asleep, so I wanted to look around to see what was going on." Anding didn't expect Annie to wake up so early and make him so upset.
Although Annie could not show up at this time, Li Pingan was already satisfied. In his happy mood, his hunger became obvious.
Carrying two bags of instant noodles to the kitchen, smelling the aroma of the instant noodles, Li Pingan always felt that he seemed to have forgotten something.
After having a good meal and a drink, he sat on the sofa and heard Anding ask, "What is this? It can be like this." Anding thought for a while, but couldn't think of any suitable adjective.
