"Sister~sister~"
Xie Ling's voice came from not far away.
The girl looked up warily like a startled bird and said to Wang Yulang, "I don't want to see him."
"You hide too."
"Ah? Oh oh." Wang Yulang could only blow away the incense and candle and hide under the shadow of the tree branches. With the help of the moonlight, he could just see Xie Ling appear on the low bridge, kissing his sister and looking constantly towards the bridge.
The girl looked at this scene with an indifferent expression.
Wang Yulang whispered, "Ignore him?"
"Ignore him." The girl said coldly, "He is a fool. He can't even speak clearly. He can't even protect himself, and he wants to protect others."
"Is that so? No wonder you, Xiaoxue, are so happy to see him coming."
"Who's happy?" The girl's face turned grim: "Don't give me random names."
"You are obviously very happy," Xiao Yulang scratched his head, "because your brother loves you very much, you know."
The girl was speechless for a moment, as if a truth that she was unwilling to admit was torn open.
"Sister Xiaoxue, there are still people in this world who look forward to your existence, who care about you, and who love you."
The boy's voice was sincere and gentle. "If you are hurt, he will be hurt with you. If you are sad, he will be sadder than you."
"My father didn't love me either. He even wanted to kill me. I was very sad at first and thought that it was because of me. But my mother told me that there are parents in the world who love their children more than themselves, but there are also bad parents who don't love their children."
"It's not our fault. Others don't love us, so we just need to love ourselves."
"If someone truly loves us, we should love them back. You will see that you are much more lovable than you think."
Xiao Yulang bared his white teeth and said, "Your brother likes you, and I like you too."
The night wind blew by, carrying the young man's anxious sobs.
The little ghost girl looked at the boy in front of her quietly, her pale eyes moved, and she said, "I'm not your sister."
"Little brat, I'm older than you..."
As her voice fell, the ghost disappeared.
On the low bridge, Xie Ling kept looking down. Just as he was about to fall, a white hand grabbed him.
Xie Ling fell to the ground. When he saw the little female ghost appear out of nowhere, he didn't care about the pain on his butt and immediately got up and rushed over to hug her.
"Wow...sister..."
The little ghost girl was wet and cold, and Xie Ling was crying and gasping for breath.
"I will never forgive her."
"Sister, are you injured again?"
The man and the ghost spoke at the same time.
The little ghost girl was stunned.
Then Xie Ling grabbed her hand and kept flipping through the books.
Unlike other ghosts which are illusory spirits, the little girl ghost has a real entity, but there are many brown bruises on her two short arms.
It's like the injuries suffered over the years, piled up one after another and unable to be eliminated.
After confirming that there were no new wounds, Xie Ling breathed a sigh of relief and smiled foolishly: "That's great, my sister is not injured."
The little ghost girl then noticed that there was a bundle tied behind him and asked, "Why did you come to see me?"
The boy sniffed and said, "I'll take you away."
"Walk?"
Xie Ling nodded and lowered her eyes in disappointment: "Sister, you will only be unhappy and hurt if you stay here. I want to go with you."
The little ghost girl seemed to have not expected him to have such an idea, and stared at him in surprise: "Can you bear to give up that woman and your father and brother?"
Xie Ling wanted to say, that's also your father and brother, he opened his mouth and shook his head: "I can't bear to part with him."
The little ghost girl sneered, and was hugged by him again: "But I don't want you to be sad, sister, and I don't want you to be alone."
"If you leave with me, she will think I am harming you again."
Xie Ling's mind was not working fast enough. He opened his mouth and uttered only three words: "I'm sorry."
It was all his fault for being so stupid. It was he who made his mother wrongly accuse his sister. It was he who harmed his sister.
The little ghost girl lowered her eyes and said, "Besides, I can't leave."
As she spoke, she looked at Xie Ling with tears in her eyes, and as if she had made some kind of decision, she raised her hand and hugged him back.
"You should learn to protect yourself in the future, and stop trying to protect the people around you."
"Stupid brother."
Her voice fell and disappeared.
Xie Ling suddenly closed his eyes and fell asleep. Xiao Yulang was watching by the lake. Seeing this, he wanted to climb up to check. The voice of the little ghost girl rang in his ears:
"Thank you, I like the name Bai Xue."
Xiao Yulang was stunned, and looked around, but he could no longer see the little ghost girl. A sense of uneasiness suddenly surged in his heart.
"Sister Xiaoxue?!"
No ghost responded.
Xiao Yulang climbed up in a hurry, bumping his knees against the rocks several times. He didn't even bother to look at his bald knees. He was in such a mess when he heard a familiar "tsk".
He looked up in surprise and saw the man's smiling eyes.
"Master!"
Ye You curled his lips and said, "I didn't realize you were willing to persuade ghosts to become good people."
"Master, Sister Xiaoxue is missing!"
"Trouble." Ye You rolled his eyes, picked up his apprentice like a chicken, and then walked over to pick up the unconscious Xie Ling.
He couldn't help but sighed to the sky: "Naughty kids are really troublesome!"
Damn Awu, you really know how to avoid quiet time!
At the ancestral hall.
The elders of the Xie family were called in overnight. Chu knelt in the ancestral hall. After hearing what Chu had done, the elders all looked incredulous.
After hearing that Xie Yun was going to put his dead daughter's name in the ancestral hall, someone immediately stood up to oppose it.
"I am determined." Xie Yun's expression was firm. "My daughter died in vain, without a name or surname. She died unjustly. Why can't she be worshipped after death?"
"Misfortune in the family!"
"Misfortune to the family!!"
"How could our Xie family, a family with a long history of prestige, allow such a shameful thing to happen? If this gets out, how will the world view our Xie family?"
An elder of the clan stood up and said, "It's fine to record the child's name in the family tree, but she is a girl, and girls are supposed to marry outside the clan. How can she be enshrined in the clan temple and have her tablet enshrined with the ancestors?"
A group of people urged Xie Yun to calm down, and at this moment, a strong wind suddenly came.
For some reason, the ancestral hall was flooded.
"What's going on?"
Someone stood up in surprise.
Under the moonlight, birds reappeared, circling around the ancestral hall like crazy.
The elders of the tribe were all terrified.
Suddenly there was a sound.
All the candles in the ancestral hall were blown out, and it was unknown who was the first to make a sound.
Xie Yun and Xie Shu were looking around excitedly, searching for something. Chu was kneeling on the ground, her face pale and terrified.
In the gloomy atmosphere, a child's voice without any human touch came faintly: "Who wants to enter the ancestral hall of your Xie family..."
"I was born dead, nameless, without a father or mother, without freedom. You were the first to abandon me, and I don't want you either..."
A grim and pale figure appeared, like moonlight falling on the snow, and the frost and snow enchanted the monster.
There were screams one after another, some people shouted that there was a ghost, and some people fainted from excessive fright.
Xie Yun looked at the child in the yard with tears in his eyes, and Xie Shu's breathing also stopped.
But Chu was trembling, with fear, disbelief, and belated regret in her eyes.
The little ghost girl looked at Chu: "You hate me..."
"Child...child..." Chu's voice was hoarse.
The little ghost girl looked indifferent: "I hate you too, I don't need your guilt."
She had thought about it and hoped for it, but now, she doesn't want it anymore...
I really want to end this hellish life without freedom.
"You gave me life, and you also took my life. I owe you nothing, but you still owe me so much..."
The little ghost girl said faintly: "Now, it's time for you to compensate me!"
Her figure suddenly appeared in front of Chu and she stretched out her hand to grab Chu's neck.
“No!” Xie Yun tried to move forward, but his body was unable to move.
Not only him, but all the sane people in the court found that they had lost their mobility.
Chu's eyes widened in horror. The little ghost girl's hand that was pinching her throat was not very strong, but she felt suffocated, as if water was pouring into her lungs.
In a trance, she seemed to have returned to the past, with her consciousness entering into a young body.
The tiny, infant child was thrown into the lake and drowned, with the pain of suffocation lingering in her lungs. She had just come into this world and had not yet had a good look at what this world looks like.
Then it lost all life, trapped in that cold, muddy lake.
There was a loud bang.
Dark clouds suddenly rose, with lightning and thunder.
It seemed as if thunder was about to fall, and the little ghost girl's body trembled.
The drowning feeling that lingered in Chu's heart had just disappeared, and she was gasping for breath, while the little ghost girl's body was shaking even more violently with the thunder.
As if a divine punishment had been triggered, thunder roared and lightning was about to strike.
"You deserve to die! I don't owe you anything!" the little ghost girl shouted hatefully, and the next moment, thunder fell.
Xie Yun opened his eyes wide in horror.
Chu also realized something.
"No--"
Just as the thunder was about to fall on the little ghost girl, the scarlet sleeves swept over and dispersed the thunder.
The lazy figure of a woman appeared in the yard, with a hint of sleepiness still on her face, as if she had just woken up, and she glanced impatiently at the night sky.
"It's so noisy, be quiet."
The rumbling thunder sounded like something was suddenly stuck in the neck.
There was dead silence all around, and everyone was staring at the woman who suddenly appeared.
Qing Wu lowered her eyes and looked at the little ghost girl approaching her. She slowly raised her hand, and under everyone's shocked gaze, she pinched the little ghost girl's cheek and twisted it hard twice.
Then the little ghost girl's face was deformed until the child had to tiptoe to float.
Facing the pair of aggrieved and unbelievable pale eyes, the old ghost who was awakened from his sleep sneered:
"After all this trouble all night, you're just going to kill me like this? You deliberately caused the thunder to come down, hoping to be struck to death?"
"Look at your lack of ambition. I give you a chance to take revenge, but you try to commit suicide?"
A ghost said with disgust: "It's such an embarrassing thing."
The living people who are still awake: "..."
His Royal Highness Prince Yan, who arrived late, said: "..."
The Night Walker who came with the naughty kid: "..."
You are the one who enjoys watching the fun.
