Yan Yirou climbed out of the water, her long, wet hair clinging to her face. If she didn't make a sound, she really did look like a female ghost.
"You scared me to death!" Shangguan Wu said, patting his chest.
Yan Yirou brushed her hair aside, tucked it behind her ear, and asked curiously, "Where is this place?"
"This must be Rongrong's fourth dream. Get up quickly, let's go find her."
With someone by his side, Shangguan Wu was less afraid, but he still walked quickly towards the land step by step.
Yan Yirou sensed that she was walking faster and faster, so she called out, "Hey, Wu Bao, slow down! I can't keep up!"
Without turning his head, Shangguan Wu said, "Hurry up."
At this moment, Yan Yirou was very weak. She followed far behind her, and suddenly thought of the cause of her death. She raised her voice and asked, "Wu Bao, are you afraid of water because you're walking so fast?"
Shangguan Wu denied it: "No."
Yan Yirou couldn't help but persuade her, "Actually, you don't need to be afraid. The Fourth Young Master later threw all the people who killed you into the sea. They were tortured until they were barely alive, and in the end, they had to watch their bodies being eaten by sharks. They died a very tragic death, so you don't need to be afraid."
"What did you say?" Shangguan Wu suddenly turned around to look at her.
Yan Yirou guiltily avoided her gaze and cleared her throat: "Ahem, I didn't want to tell you."
Shangguan Wu ran up to Yan Yirou and looked at her earnestly: "Please tell me."
Yan Yirou looked into her eyes and asked softly, "What do you want to know?"
Shangguan Wu wanted to know everything that had happened to Gu Yunzhen.
But she was also afraid to find out.
Shangguan Wu took a deep breath and said softly, "He killed those people, and in the end, wasn't he...?"
She couldn't bring herself to say those two words.
Just thinking about it made her heart ache as if it were being gripped by an invisible hand, making it hard to breathe.
It felt much stronger than the suffocating sensation I had just experienced in the water.
Gradually, Shangguan Wu's face turned deathly pale, and a layer of fine sweat seeped from his forehead.
Yan Yirou spoke for her: "Execute?
Shangguan Wu's pupils suddenly contracted!
"No," Yan Yirou told her.
Shangguan Wu stared wide-eyed in disbelief. How could this be? Although she desperately wanted him to live, he had killed so many people; his only fate was the death penalty.
Yan Yirou said, "Fourth Young Master found evidence of those people's crimes, and then staged a scene of them committing suicide out of fear of punishment before taking them to the sea to feed the sharks."
After killing them, the Fourth Young Master squandered his fortune and never appeared in public again, but his legend lived on in the martial arts world.
Shangguan Wu rolled her eyes at her.
"Oh dear, the main story is finished, but he appeared in Ji Mingjing's side story."
Shangguan Wu was taken aback again: "Then, where did he go?"
Wanfo Temple.
temple?
Shangguan Wu was utterly astonished: "He became a monk?"
Yan Yirou knew she would misunderstand, and immediately burst into uncontrollable laughter: "Hahahaha..."
Shangguan Wu was a little confused by her laughter: "Isn't that right?"
"Of course not! Have you ever seen a male lead who is a monk?" Yan Yirou asked as she walked.
"Tang Sanzang".
"..."
Yan Yirou was taken aback by her words, but got back to the point: "Fourth Young Master has been freezing your body in the snow mountain and has been looking for a way to revive you."
Shangguan Wu's breath hitched, and her eyes instantly welled up with tears: "Was he deceived?"
Yan Yirou looked at her in surprise: "Wow, that's amazing!"
"Tell me quickly!"
"No, legend has it that someone on this continent ascended to immortality, which is why there are so many Taoist temples and Buddhist monasteries. It's also said that the abbot of the Ten Thousand Buddha Temple can see the past and the future..."
Shangguan Wu interrupted her: "Is this also from that book? Are you sure it's not a bad piece of writing by the author?"
Why does a perfectly good romance novel have to talk about ascending to immortality?!
Yan Yirou rolled her eyes dramatically: "Do you still want to hear it?"
A moment later, Shangguan Wu smiled and made a 'please' gesture: "Sister Yan, Brother Rou, please continue."
Damn it, Rou-ge!
Yan Yirou's lips twitched: "Are you deliberately mocking me? I know I'm physically weak, even weaker than a pregnant woman like you, but I'll work out hard when I get back!"
"That's not important, what matters most is that you like it," Shangguan Wu coaxed her.
"Of course!"
Yan Yirou raised her chin proudly and continued, "The story I read was originally a tragedy. The author said on Weibo that the female lead would die early and the male lead would be executed, but because readers bombarded her with messages, she changed the male lead's ending."
Everyone thought the male lead would be given a female lead substitute or something, but the author made the male lead live in the dream of resurrecting the female lead, visiting all the Taoist temples and Buddhist temples.
Because the fourth young master had blood on his hands, to show his sincerity, he kowtowed with each step as he ascended the steps to enter the Buddhist temple.
After Yan Yirou finished speaking, she felt a little sorry for the Fourth Young Master.
If even an outsider like her feels this way, one can imagine how Shangguan Wu feels.
Yan Yirou turned her head to look at Shangguan Wu.
really!
Shangguan Wu was already in tears.
Even though they were just fictional characters created by the author, she truly felt Gu Yunzhen's deep and boundless love for her; they were both living, breathing human beings.
Therefore, she had no doubt about her past life and everything Gu Yunzhen did after her death!
How could he be so stupid!
She had already pushed him away so cruelly!
Why does he still...?
Yan Yirou suddenly spoke up: "Now I understand what the abbot of Wanfo Temple meant by 'debts in this life will be repaid in the next.'"
