"I--"
George's face was pale and his whole body was trembling. He opened his mouth to speak, but when the words reached his throat he found that he couldn't say anything at all.
He was unwilling to give up his life.
He doesn't want to die either.
He is still so young and has a lot of prime years ahead of him.
He had just reunited with his mother and wanted to live with her for a long time to make up for all the suffering and pain she had endured over the years.
He doesn't want to die.
Why should he die?
Ten years ago, Zhou Jianhong killed him, and two years ago, Zhou Jianhong killed Lin Siyu. He and Lin Siyu were both victims, and both were victims of crimes committed by Zhou Jianhong. Why should he die alone?
Why should he be the only one to suffer?
George's face was full of indomitable spirit and unwillingness.
Lin Sixian's eyes turned cold instantly.
He knew that no one in this world was noble enough to sacrifice himself for others.
In that case, there is no need to say more.
He turned to look at Jiang Chunian. Should she give up now?
Jiang Chunian's expression did not change at all, he remained calm and composed, even a little gentle.
She looked at George with a bit of pity in her eyes: "You are indeed very unlucky. You did nothing wrong, but you were killed because of Zhou Jianhong's selfishness. Now, because of Zhou Jianhong's vicious behavior, you have to pay the heavy price of your life. You are wronged and unwilling, and it is right. I understand you."
George couldn't hold back his tears any longer and burst into tears. "None of this is what I want. I don't want this either. I used to have a healthy body and a brilliant life. I don't want to be like this, and I don't want to hurt anyone. If possible, I just want to be George. I don't want to be Lu Jiayu at all. But why? Why me?!"
"Sometimes the world is just so unreasonable." Jiang Chunian patted his shoulder: "We can only find a way to solve it."
George thought of Jiang Chunian's identity, and hope rose in his eyes: "Dora, you are so powerful, you can definitely help us, right? You must have a way to save both Miss Lin and me, right?"
Jiang Chunian nodded and then shook his head. "I have a way to save Miss Lin. I won't hide it from you. I can take back the life span you borrowed from her, but I can't save your life. Soul transfer is against the will of heaven and is intolerable. Moreover, you borrowed your life span, so no one can save your life. Your end should be to be reduced to ashes, and you will never be reincarnated."
George glared at Jiang Chunian with anger, his eyes bloodshot and filled with despair. "So, you were coming for me from the beginning. You didn't come to help me at all, but to take my life, right? Haha, you still criticize Zhou Jianhong, but what's the difference between what you did and what Zhou Jianhong did? You're all taking human life lightly!"
Lin Sixian said coldly, "It's not us who are taking human lives, it's Zhou Jianhong, it's you! We are just taking back what belongs to us. Paying back a debt is only natural!"
"What about me? Should I die?" George asked angrily.
Lin Sixian pursed his lips. He could ignore George's life or death for Lin Siyu, because Lin Siyu was his sister, and it was only natural to help her get back what belonged to her.
But he couldn't say with a clear conscience that George deserved to die.
Because George should not die, it is Zhou Jianhong, that evil cultivator, who should die.
Lin Sixian turned to look at Jiang Chunian, "You just said that his end should be reduced to ashes and he will never be reincarnated?"
"Yes." Jiang Chunian nodded. "Soul transfer and borrowing lifespan are both evil and harmful to the natural order. They are not tolerated by the Heavenly Dao. He devoured Lu Jiayu's soul and forcibly occupied Lu Jiayu's body. If the Heavenly Dao discovers this, he could be wiped out at any time."
"Hahahaha, Zhou Jianhong wants to kill me, and you guys want to kill me too. Now even Heaven wants to wipe me out? What did I, George, do wrong to deserve such 'kindness' from you all?" George laughed wildly, looking up to the sky. "Heaven is unfair, Heaven is unfair!"
Lin Sixian scolded him, "Shut up! Didn't you hear what she said? If it's just a matter of time, then there's still a way to save it, right? Why are you so foolish?"
George turned around and laughed bitterly: "What else can I do?"
Jiang Chunian said to George, "I really can't save your life, but I can find a way to save your soul. However, you are infected with the soul transfer technique. Even if I save your soul, you can't return to the underworld, let alone reincarnate. But you can practice with me. When your merits are complete, you can offset your sins and reincarnate. Are you willing?"
When Jiang Chunian said this, not only George was stunned, but Lin Sixian was also stunned.
He looked at Jiang Chunian in surprise, wanting to say something but in the end said nothing.
George also stared at Jiang Chunian blankly: "I want to become a ghost and practice with you?"
"Yes." Jiang Chunian asked him, "Are you willing?"
"I—" George didn't know.
What would it be like to become a ghost? Would it be scary?
Jiang Chunian seemed to see the doubt in his heart and said gently, "In fact, becoming a ghost is not as scary as you imagine. When you become a ghost, you have no body and can't even appear in front of people in broad daylight. Even if you stand in front of people, they can't see you and can't enjoy the happiness of being a human. But at the same time, you won't become ugly. You will still be the same as you are now, and you won't even age.
You can also continue to do the things you enjoy. For example, if you like painting, you can have more time and energy to study it, because ghosts generally don't feel tired. Even if you want to see your mother, as long as you follow the rules, I can let you visit her often and you can still be by her side. The only difference is probably that you can no longer hug and rely on each other as often as humans.
"I, I--" George didn't know whether he should agree.
His mind was in a mess.
Jiang Chunian did not force him to give an answer immediately.
"Think about it carefully." Jiang Chunian stood up and left with Lin Sixian.
After coming out, Lin Sixian looked at Jiang Chunian with complicated eyes: "You——"
Jiang Chunian tilted his head and looked at him: "Hmm?"
Lin Sixian pursed her lips and whispered, "Besides this, is there no other way?"
"No." Jiang Chunian sighed: "And to be honest, even if I can save his soul, I can't say that I am 100% sure."
"and you--"
"But as long as I have a 10% chance of success, I will definitely give it a try." Jiang Chunian turned his head and looked up at the sky. "Lin Siyu's meeting me was fate for me. Similarly, George's meeting me was fate for me. We are destined to be together, so I will do my best to help them."
If there is no destiny with her and she dislikes someone, even if she takes action, she will not do her best.
Just like Pang Ning, she was indeed lucky to have found her and thus uncovered the ghost marriage, giving her a glimmer of hope.
But Jiang Chunian only gave her a solution and would not help her solve the problem completely. Whether she could survive in the end depended on Pang Ning herself.
But George, Jiang Chu Nian is willing to fight for him.
This child is so pitiful.
He has a good character and is worth her efforts to save.
