Chapter 160 I thought I could be a saint
The panic in its eyes in the mirror intensified. It looked at the shattered corner of the mirror and stepped back repeatedly, finally disappearing on the spot. Then the mirror turned gray and could not be seen clearly as if it was covered by dark clouds.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Qiu felt a very mysterious feeling entering his mind, as if it was pondering his memories, and as if it was secretly connecting to his heart.
Xia Wange said that the Mirror Ghost can show a person's innermost thoughts, but he has always only had a vague idea of what he wants most in his heart. He wonders if the Mirror Ghost can help him become clear this time...
Soon, the picture in the mirror began to change, the background became warm, and under the dim and soft light, an old lady with gray hair sat with her back to him. She wore a birthday crown on her head. Soon, she seemed to hear a sound and turned to look at him.
The moment he saw her face, Lu Qiu smiled.
Sure enough, it was exactly what he imagined Xia Wange would look like as an old lady. She was fashionable and beautiful. Even her reading glasses were sunglasses. The crown on her head was made of gold with the number one hundred written on it.
Then a cake appeared in the corner of the screen, and a person holding a cake appeared in the screen. The moment those hands appeared, Lu Qiu pursed his lips, frowned slightly, and felt upset.
Those hands were not his.
It's someone else's.
As if sensing his mood, the person holding the cake immediately changed and became his old self...
After a long time, Lu Qiu laughed, with a self-deprecating tone. He thought he could be a saint, but in the end, it turned out that he was also greedy.
After a pause, Lu Qiu and Mirror Ghost signed a contract.
The mirror ghost helped him complete the most desired picture.
In the end, the Mirror Ghost came as promised, and it was consumed in the purple air around Lu Qiu.
To help him complete the desired scene, all you have to do is consume his purple energy, it’s that simple.
With infinite longing and vision for the future, Lu Qiu controlled the wheelchair to the stairs, took a look at the spiral staircase, and silently returned to the room he had just been in, opened the window, and looked down. Only then did he find that Xia Wange was squatting next to a well, holding a familiar white porcelain jar.
well?
Lu Qiu narrowed his eyes.
Well, okay. I haven’t seen Du Yun be so capable before.
"Hey, who of you can get me down?" Lu Qiu leaned against the window and looked down helplessly.
"Hmm?" As if a sound was heard, a head popped out of the "well". Who else could it be but Du Yun?
"Qiuqiu, wait a moment. I'll smooth the soil here to make sure it doesn't hurt you when I drop you down." After saying that, Du Yun went down again and started pounding the soil.
Lu Qiu: “…”
Good, good, very good. If we knock it flat, wouldn't that mean there won't be any small holes for him to climb on either side? He might as well not come up when the time comes. He can just spend the New Year in the hole.
Xia Wange looked up at the extremely helpless Lu Qiu and felt that she couldn't just leave it like this, so she quickly said, "Du Yun, you don't have to knock it so flat, you have to give Lu Qiu some places to grab."
While talking, his hands kept working, using a shovel to frantically make the edge of the pit smooth, making it very difficult to climb out once you go down.
Lu Qiu: “…”
Just when he was speechless, he heard a cough behind him. Lu Qiu turned around and found that the ghost bride was floating behind her and looking at him. Lu Qiu looked at the ghost bride who suddenly appeared with a vigilant look in his eyes.
Seeing him looking over, the ghost bride quickly explained, "Sister Xia asked me to take you down."
Lu Qiu nodded his chin, "Sorry for the trouble."
This made the ghost bride a little flattered. She gently raised her hand, let Lu Qiu's wheelchair float up, and then slowly took him downstairs. After walking out of the door, the ghost bride seemed to have been holding back for a long time. She asked: "It only took you two hours to get rid of the mirror ghost. Logically speaking, you are also capable. Don't you care that Sister Xia can call another man so soon?"
Two hours? Lu Qiu was stunned. Could it be that he had been in front of the mirror ghost for such a long time without realizing it?
"Ah, no, I don't mean anything else. I'm just curious. And he wanted to dig a hole to bury you so much. I think he was jealous of your position next to Sister Xia." The ghost bride added quietly and quickly, "After all, she came here, even if your legs were not good, she only brought you with her. When she needed help, she found someone else, even if it was to bury you..."
Lu Qiu thought about the ghost bride's words for a long time before he figured out her logic.
From the ghost bride's perspective, Lu Qiu could easily understand why she thought in this way.
She spent the first ten years of her life in the building, surrounded by women. All they had to do was to please men in exchange for money and shelter. After getting married, she was trapped in the backyard, where she was confined to the love struggles between women all day long. After she became a ghost, she began to seek revenge. After she had taken revenge, she was trapped in this house and could not go out. The information she received from the outside world was limited.
After understanding the ghost bride's thoughts and combining them with the script he now has in his hands, Lu Qiu whispered, "It doesn't matter how many men she has, as long as I am the most important one. She is very powerful and has great means, which is enough to impress all of us."
The ghost bride looked at Lu Qiu's face and suddenly realized.
Is this the charm of power, enough to attract outstanding men to come one after another and learn to coexist peacefully?
After floating down the stairs, Lu Qiu chose to control the wheelchair and move by himself. The ghost bride did not stay for long and turned around and left.
When Lu Qiu walked out of the door and towards the backyard, he found that Du Yun had already come out of the pit and was sitting by the pit, chattering with the ghost bride.
"Alas, girl, you just have bad taste. Leave me your address tomorrow and I'll burn some good-looking handsome men for you. Nowadays, those paper figures are very realistic. I'll burn eight or ten for you at once. You can use whoever you want. I will never treat you unfairly." Du Yun continued while holding the shovel, "Also, when choosing a man, you must look at what he does, not what he says. Look at me, I got up from the bed in the middle of the night and came here to dig a hole without stopping. Look at that person, he can only sit there as a showpiece and can't do anything."
The ghost bride turned her head to look at Lu Qiu who was already at the edge of the pit, then she turned around and went back into her red wedding dress.
Jealousy among men is really terrible. One dares to criticize another in front of her. She'd better hide herself as soon as possible.
"Hey, Qiuqiu, you're here?" Du Yun happily patted the edge of the pit with his shovel, "Look, brother, how is the work I dug for you? I guarantee you won't forget it after using it."
