Chapter 21 Chapter 21
The journey of several days finally came to an end. At ten o'clock at noon, they arrived at the gate of Lin's house.
After seeing a few people coming, Lin Gong, the head of the Lin family, and his wife led them into the mansion and settled down.
After they had lunch and rested for a while, they regained some energy.
Lin Gong only said at this moment that the reason why he invited Shen Ziyin was because of his son.
Lin Bai.
Shen Ziyin looked around, but did not find the Lin Bai he was talking about.
"Hey, you priests will understand when you come with me."
Lin Gong sighed, his eyes were full of haggardness, and Mrs. Lin couldn't hide her sorrow.
Shen Ziyin's heart sank... It seems that it is really troublesome to make the two parents have such expressions.
When everyone came to Lin Bai's courtyard, they realized why the two Lin family members were so dignified.
In the yard, Lin Bai and his newly married wife were looking at the koi in the pond together, looking extremely affectionate.
But... Shen Ziyin closed his eyes, the thing in Lin Bai's arms was clearly a bone.
Qingxuan's eyes on the side had turned cold, and he said slowly.
"Painted skin."
"Bai'er, come." Lin Gong called softly to the young man in the courtyard.
After Lin Bai heard the voice, he raised his head to look at his parents. When he saw Shen Ziyin and others behind them, his originally soft face instantly condensed.
He patted the newlyweds on the shoulder, then gently took her white palm, and walked slowly.
Shen Ziyin looked at the two people who were no different from ordinary couples, and sighed softly.
Huapi is a person who stays in the world after the bones have been transformed, because of her obsession with returning to her family, if that person still believes that she is still alive, then Huapi will transform into the same as before.
It's just that in the eyes of others, she is still a bone of bones.
"Bai'er, these are Daoist Shen, Daoist Qingxuan and Young Master Bai." After Lin Gong introduced them one by one, he turned his gaze back to his son and "daughter-in-law".
"Ling Dang, go back and rest first, we have something to discuss with Bai'er."
Lin Bai's expression turned cold, but he didn't say much. He looked at his wife with a little tenderness in his eyes: "Ling Dang, go, I'll go back and find you later."
Ling Dang nodded obediently, and bowed to everyone: "Father, Mother, Ling Dang is going back first."
"Everyone, my concubine is disrespectful."
Shen Ziyin looked at the bell gradually disappearing at the end of the path, and looked sideways at Qingxuan.
Qingxuan's expression was cold. Although he restrained a bit, he could still feel his coldness.
In his heart, he still felt that these monsters were all evil creatures who had paid blood debts.
"Dear priests, I know what my parents mean to invite you here, but please go back, Ling Ding is my only wife, and this will never change in this life!" Although Lin Bai looked worried, he still bowed his hands towards them, respectfully Said.
"Bai'er, why don't you understand?! Bell is dead! You married a monster!" Finally, Mother Lin couldn't take it anymore. She had already spent too much time and energy on this matter. What a respectable Taoist priest came, the sons didn't believe it at all, and they were not allowed to touch the monster.
They are not afraid of what outsiders will think of the Lin family, but they are not human beings after all, what if something happens to their son one day, what will they do...
Lin Bai looked at his parents worrying about him, and couldn't help the corners of his eyes turning red. He hit his knees on the ground, and bent down deeply: "Father, mother, my son is not filial. My son knows that you are worried about me, but I really Can't let go of the bell, my son has already lost her once, and he can't let her go again."
"I beg father and mother to let the son be self-willed for a while..."
"Son, you are doing this for your mother's life. Mother knows that Ling Dang is a good person and that you like her, but she really can't be with her. Look at her now, how can she look like a person? "
Lin's mother held Lin Bai in her arms, why didn't she want her son to marry a beloved person and live a good life, but which mother can hand over her son to a monster?
Lin Gong watched from the side, raised his sleeve and wiped the corners of his eyes.
Evil fate...
"Painted skin is maintained by a person's Yang Yuan. If she wants to accompany you, she will have to consume your Yang life. So do you want to keep her?"
Qing Xuan's cold voice suddenly sounded, hitting the hearts of everyone present.
"Consuming Yangshou... Wouldn't she kill Bai'er by saying that?!" Mother Lin raised her tear-stained cheeks and said angrily.
"No, Bai'er, you have to listen to us this time. No matter who you like or marry in the future, you won't care about it as a mother."
"Son...can't."
Lin Bai clenched his teeth with red eyes, there was meat on both sides, and he couldn't let go.
None of the three spoke anymore, and they didn't know how to speak.
"Patriarch Lin, this matter is not in a hurry. Although the painted skin will indeed damage one's lifespan, I can see that Mr. Lin Bai's complexion does not show signs of depletion of Yang Yuan, so don't be so worried, let us first tell us the ins and outs of this matter. "
Shen Ziyin said softly, Hua Pi is really not a ghost, at most it is just a person's persistent obsession.
Hearing what he said, the confrontational atmosphere among the three of the Lin family eased a little.
"So, please follow me into the house." Lin Gong nodded, let Lin Bai help his mother to stand up, and everyone stepped into the main room.
"Speaking of which, Ling Dang is also a child with a hard life. She is my good friend's girl. She has made a marriage contract with Bai'er since she was a child. Our two families live close to each other. These two children also grew up together, but later we moved because of some things. I left there, but the marriage contract has been kept, and I thought that when Ling Dang grew up, Ming Mei was marrying and took her over."
"Bai'er has been looking forward to his sister Ling Dang for a long time. Unfortunately, it was also my old friend who died. When he took Ling Dang back to his hometown a few years ago, he contracted tuberculosis. He went there not long after to take care of him. Ling Dang was also unlucky, and Bai Er didn't even see her for the last time when she went there."
"The family rushed them to the funeral, and it was probably because they were afraid of catching tuberculosis. We sent a letter, and it was two years later when there was another news. They didn't expect that Bell's grave was empty. They searched all over the place. There was no trace of the bell anywhere, and I thought it was a grave robber who turned over the tomb and stole all the contents."
When Lin Gong said this, his face was full of sorrow and fear.
"I never thought that on a rainy night a few months later, someone knocked on the door of our Lin family...Let's go out and have a look..." Lin Gong's lips trembled, as if he saw the scene of that night, and he didn't say anything for a long time.
Lin Bai didn't want his father to recall the scene of that day again, and then he said: "It was the bell who had been missing for a long time standing in the rain, shivering, I held an umbrella to cover her, I just felt that she had nothing to do with the memory different."
"Although everyone says she is a monster, I think she is still my bell, not as scary as they said, so I think maybe the bell didn't die at that time, but was rescued? She was cured If you are sick, come back to me."
Lin Bai looked up at Shen Ziyin and the others firmly, and suddenly seemed to recall something that made him happy, and his eyebrows softened again: "Later, we got married, although everyone didn't want to bless us, but From that moment on, I made up my mind to marry her alone."
"Son, you are so confused..." Mother Lin looked at the obsessed Lin Bai, and closed her eyes wearily.
Shen Ziyin frowned, feeling that Lin Bai didn't look like he didn't know his wife was a monster, so he narrowed his eyes slightly.
Is Lin Bai pretending not to know?
As soon as Shen Ziyin raised his eyes, let's act with him.
"In that case, let me show Mrs. Xiao Lin. After all, I have suffered from tuberculosis, an extraordinary disease. If the root cause of the disease is not removed, I am afraid it will not be very good."
Shen Ziyin looked at Lin Bai's calm opening, so he couldn't stop them from looking at the painted skin, right?
"That's right, that's right, Bai'er, it's better to let the Taoist priest take a look at Ling Dang's illness, it's also for peace of mind." Mother Lin said hurriedly, no matter what, she must get rid of the monster this time , I can no longer keep her to harm my son.
Lin Bai's eyes instantly turned cold, he remained silent and refused to speak, unwilling to let these people hurt his wife.
"Mr. Lin Bai can rest assured, we are just going to see Mrs. Xiao Lin's situation, and we will not do anything out of the ordinary."
Hearing what Shen Ziyin said, no matter how unwilling Lin Bai was, he could only take them to see the bell.
Walking through the corridor in the mansion, looking at the rows of beautiful summer flowers in front of the corridor, the people who want to trim and care are also very attentive.
Bell was embroidering mandarin ducks in the house, and when she heard Lin Bai calling her, she put down her needlework and went out to meet her.
"I have met all the priests myself."
Shen Ziyin and the others nodded slightly in return.
Bai Yu looked at the bloodless bones, the corners of his mouth twitched a little, it has become like this, what kind of tuberculosis can there be?
Shen Ziyin checked carefully a few times, then turned her head and said, "This lady is fine."
"..."
They see it!
Shen Ziyin coughed, calmed down his emotions, and asked, "Then, I still have a few questions for Mrs. Xiao Lin."
"Since you were suffering from tuberculosis, how did you come to the Lin family?"
With a slight sway of the bell, the two jade hairpins stuck in her hair collided and made a sound.
"My concubine only remembers the fuzziness of those days. I only hope to see Brother Bai again, and when I wake up, I have really arrived at the door of Lin's house."
Shen Ziyin was a little puzzled. Logically speaking, a ghost of Huapi's level couldn't cross such a long distance. Could it be that someone brought her here, but she didn't know about it?
He was slightly contemplative, thinking about how to make the two of them realize that this kind of relationship cannot last long.
People and ghosts have different ways.
Qingxuan lowered his eyes and looked at the bell that had turned into bones, but seemed to be unaware of it, and said indifferently: "The two of you have been newly married for a year, when are you going to continue to have children?"
