【Ranwan ABO】Death

Chapter 8

Mo Ran passed by a pastry shop and saw lotus cakes just out of the oven, so he bought a few pieces. The boss wrapped them squarely with lotus leaves, and wrapped them carefully with oiled paper and red thread.Mo Ran was not in a hurry to leave, and asked him about the Lu family with his arms folded.

The boss kept moving his hands and only looked up for a while.He has opened this shop in the town for 20 years, and he has met many customers. He concluded that the person in front of him must be an extraordinary person, so he let go of his worries and said: "This Lu family is the new mansion. The head of the Lu family Your Excellency is a scholar, and I heard that he came from a hard background. A few years ago, he went to high school in one fell swoop, but something happened later, he refused to continue to be an official in the capital, and asked for a place to be an idle official. This Mr. Lu is young and promising, born He is also handsome, honest and upright, with top-notch talent and appearance. This matchmaker broke the threshold, but he is unwilling to marry anyway. On the contrary, he fell in love with a weaving girl on the Shangyuan Festival this year. The two fell in love with each other. Fang became a family. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Lu ran into something unclean in the East Kitchen, haunted by nightmares, and fell ill."

Mo Ran took the wrapped lotus cake, put it carefully in his arms, and asked: "Does the store know when this nightmare of Mrs. Lu started?"

The shopkeeper frowned and thought for a while: "I think it was the fourteenth of last month."

Mo Ran thanked the shopkeeper and turned to leave. He frowned slightly. According to the shopkeeper, the Lu family is a person of good character and should not provoke evil spirits. There must be something hidden about this matter.He didn't know if Chu Wanning would be here, but when he met this matter, he couldn't sit idly by.Mo Ran turned into the backyard of Lu's house neatly, and happened to meet two maidservants who were arranging the melon and fruit cakes in the gazebo. Mo Ran immediately hid behind the rockery and listened carefully.

One of the tall and thin maidservants sighed: "Madam has taken all these medicines, but she is not getting better."

Another mellow maid lowered her voice: "My good sister, Madam has hit a ghost. The ghost refuses to leave. How can medicine cure it?"

The thin and tall servant girl looked around in fright, and replied: "Madam is the most gentle and gentle, how can she attract fierce ghosts."

The mellow maid covered her lips and said in a low voice: "It is said that the Eastern Kitchen is haunted by ghosts. Madam also ran into it by accident, but someone saw it with her own eyes. It is said that it is a female ghost in yellow clothes."

The thin and tall maidservant was so frightened that she couldn't speak, she dragged another girl to pack up the dishes in a hurry and left.Mo Ran pondered for a moment, counted the days, and it happened to be fourteen, so he decided to go to East Kitchen at night to find out.

The fourteenth month is about to be full but not yet full, with clear light and dew, bright colors thousands of miles away.Although it is a good scene, it adds a little regret.

Mo Ran took advantage of the darkness to sneak into the East Kitchen, and he concealed the brilliance of his body, even if there were ghosts, he would not be able to detect it.This East Kitchen of the Lu Mansion is usually a place for preparing banquets, it is extremely spacious, and because there is a refrigerator, the room is full of air-conditioning.

Mo Ran took a closer look at the moonlight, stood in front of the curtain, and was about to raise his hand to lift it, but his wrist was tightly entangled by a section of willow vine. Ye Du is very clear.Mo Ran didn't make a sound, tried to hold back his smile, let Tianwen wrap him tightly, and was dragged in by the owner of the willow vine.

Chu Wanning saw the person who Tianwen tied him back clearly, his expression looked like he had caught a turtle instead of fishing.He opened his lips with difficulty: "Why are you?"

Mo Ran was tied up tightly, and he seemed aggrieved sitting on the ground curled up. He looked at Chu Wanning aggrievedly, and said in a muffled voice: "Master...it hurts."

Chu Wanning's brows twitched, and he flicked his sleeves back to ask Tianwen, and gave him a cold look: "What are you doing here because you are afraid of pain, and go back where you came from."

Mo Ran patted the soil on his body, and the wrist that had just been entangled by Tian Wen was bruised. He carefully took out the lotus cake from his arms, and handed it to Chu Wanning with both hands: "Master, I was wrong."

Chu Wanning's gaze fell on his wrist, and he retracted his gaze for a moment: "I don't know what to say."

Mo Ran opened the crisp, he kept warming it with his body, it was still hot, the aroma of the lotus leaves made the crisp more sweet, and it circulated slightly in the air, Chu Wanning lowered his eyelashes and took a look, then looked away, Looking at a white radish, I just don't look at Mo Ran.

Mo Ran handed the crisp to Chu Wanning's lips: "Master can punish me any way, but the lotus crisp is right."

Chu Wanning was indeed a little hungry. He was determined not to eat what Mo Ran sent, but the crisps reached his lips, so he gave Mo Ran a hard look, and took a small bite of his hand.

Mo Ran bent the corners of his lips, raised his hand and gently wiped away a little residue from the corners of Chu Wanning's lips with his fingertips, and asked softly, "Is it delicious?"

Chu Wanning's ears were a little red, and he brushed away Mo Ran's hand: "Since you are here, work hard, if you get in the way, go back."

Mo Ran pursed the corners of his lips, and put away the remaining crisps. If he had a tail, he would probably fly up at this moment.

Master Mo followed Elder Yuheng obediently and skillfully, and suddenly heard some strange noises, and Mo Ran quickly hugged Chu Wanning and hid behind the cabinet.The space was very narrow, not big enough for two people, Chu Wanning couldn't move, so Mo Ran could only hug him tightly, with his cheek pressed against his chest, Mo Ran's steady and powerful heartbeat could be heard even if he was close. No sound of breathing.

Elder Yuheng blushed silently. He wanted to kick Mo Ran away. It would be better to use Tianwen to smoke a few more times, but at this critical moment, he couldn't attack, and he was very aggrieved.He looked up quietly, but Mo Ran had a decent face and was staring at that place seriously, but he was alone, and Elder Yuheng was even more angry.

Mo Ran didn't give him a chance to continue to be angry, and he said to Chu Wanning with his heartbeat: "Master...here."

Chu Wanning looked at it intently, and there was a little bit of aura in the air, gradually gathering into a woman.She looked timid, standing there looking frightened.Her shoulders are thin, her clothes look a little too big, her cheeks have almost no flesh, and her eyes appear larger and brighter.She walked cautiously, as if she was looking for something, but she kept bumping into corners and corners, so she rubbed her eyes with difficulty, and continued to search slowly.

Chu Wanning opened her lips silently, and fell into Mo Ran's ears: "This girl is somewhat similar to Mrs. Lu."

Mo Ran frowned, this female ghost looks only twenty-eight, how can she not be connected with the ghosts in the mouth of the people, not to mention the ghosts, her aura is very weak, as if her soul will fly away at any time.

The female ghost's pale lips curled up, as if she had finally found what she was looking for, she laboriously laid out the chopping board, as if she wanted to make something to eat.She turned around to get the steamer again, but she couldn't move it no matter what, she was so anxious that she wept, but the tears were also invisible, shattered into the air and turned into scattered light.After many failures, she finally put the steamer on the stove, rolled up her sleeves and started kneading the dough.Her fingers were covered with bruises, but luckily the blood didn't get on the dough.

What is left of the dead?

Mo Ran lowered his eyelashes, this scene evoked some painful memories in him, he hugged Chu WanNing a little tighter, seeing ghosts quietly snaked around his waist, the ancient gods locked the soul, easily The female ghost was tied tightly.

The biscuits made by the female ghost fell to the ground. She sat on the ground trembling, trying to pick up the biscuits, and kept saying, "Give me another hour... just one hour..."

Chu WanNing approached the female ghost, and he opened his lips lightly: "This is not the place you should come... You lost two souls and seven souls and refused to reincarnate, and would rather leave only a wisp of life soul to come to the world, but there is What obsession."

The female ghost finally picked up the biscuit, and she held it on her chest like a baby. She opened her lips tremblingly: "I have never harmed anyone... I just want to let him taste the biscuit I made again."

The aura around her began to dissipate, the ink burned back to hell, a talisman rushed out from the sleeve, and temporarily condensed the ghost's life and soul, Chu WanNing formed a formation, the golden light floated, and the woman's life was vividly remembered.

He saw a young man carrying her on his back. The two of them were flanked by a huge refugee team. They were all in a state of distress. That young man was clearly the former Lord Lu.He heard the girl choked up and said, "Brother Lu Yao, we have no home."

Lu Yao gained some strength in his hands, and he comforted her: "With me here, you won't be left without a home. We still have to walk for a long time. Be good, Xiao Ci, go to sleep for a while."

Xiaoci fell into a deep sleep with tears in her eyes, only the silent mountains and vast starry sky in the distance.

The two settled down in an abandoned courtyard in the mountains, Xiao Ci sewed for others, and Lu Yao went to the town to do some hard work. The two lived a difficult life.In the dead of night, Xiao Ci looked at Lu Yao's tired sleeping face and felt sad for a while. The flood took away everything from her and him.Lu Yao used to be the most talented one in the private school. He loved reading so much, but now he is dying.Xiao Ci wiped away her tears, she quietly went out to do more work.

She refused to let Lu Yao work as a coolie again, and only lied to him that the boss felt sorry for her and gave him more money so that he could study hard at home.Lu Yao didn't agree to anything, Xiaoci only said that he would make up for her after he finished high school, the extinguished flame in Lu Yao's heart gradually ignited, he worked harder day by day, went to the town to settle accounts for others during the day, and stayed up all night study.Xiaoci's eyes gradually went bad, and those inches of silk threads were connected together before her eyes, and her fingers were riddled with holes because of the silver needles, but she didn't complain.When the two of them saved enough money, Lu Yao rushed to the exam. He made up his mind that when he passed the exam, he would come back and marry Xiao Ci.

He wants to spend his whole life treating Xiaoci well, and he doesn't want Xiaoci to suffer any more grievances.

Xiaoci waited for many days and nights, and finally received a letter from Lu Yao. He said in the letter that he had entered high school and would go back on the fourteenth of this month. full moon.

Xiaoci's fingers were trembling and she couldn't hold the fluttering letter, and her dress was wet with tears. She really wanted to know if her elder brother Lu Yao was thinner and how many inches his hair had grown.

On the [-]th day, she wanted to pick up Lu Yao at the foot of the mountain with the prepared crisps in her bosom.It was raining heavily that day, and the sky was dark. Xiao Ci staggered and walked with an oil-paper umbrella, and fell off a cliff to avoid a boulder that slipped.

The shortbread that was still warm in his arms, the handsome and handsome young man, and the [-]th moonlight were all dispersed by the rain.

Chu Wanning's fingers trembled slightly, and Mo Ran gently hugged his shoulders.

They saw Lu Yao knelt by the cliff crying until he fainted, and saw him resign from office and live in the town that Xiaoci once said he liked, full of flowers she liked.They saw him in the lights of the Shangyuan Festival, and saw a woman who was very similar to Xiaoci, smiling gently and holding an unwoven cloth. He asked her if she could fulfill his wish and accompany him to see Back to the full moon.

That full moon that he hadn't looked up at for ten years.

The formation gradually disappeared, and Xiaoci stood aside awkwardly, her eyes filled with tears, and she said cautiously: "Xianjun, let me finish this plate of pastries... okay..."

Chu Wan quietly nodded, Mo Ran gently rolled up his sleeves, and the two of them accompanied Xiaoci to finish the pastry, and Xiaoci's life and soul were almost gone.Chu Wanning looked at the warm crisp and asked her softly: "Don't you want to see him?"

Xiaoci smiled slightly, with two dimples on his lips: "I heard him tell me a few days ago that he wanted to eat the crisps I made again. Now that I'm done, it's time to go. Thank you, Xianjun, for me. .”

Looking at the missing moon outside the window, she gently closed her eyes.She never saw the full moon on the fifteenth day.The last ray of Xiaoci's soul was gone, and there was no trace except for the pile of warm crisps on the table to prove that she had been there.

Chu Wanning picked up the plate of crisps and said softly: "Let's go, give it to Mr. Lu, while the crisps are still hot."

Mo Ran asked: "Xiaoci...she..."

Chu Wanning replied: "She was bumped into by Mrs. Lu that day, and a ray of soul was unintentionally attached to Mrs. Lu. If she took it back and protected it carefully, she might be able to reincarnate."

Mo Ran bent his lips, and surrounded Chu Wanning from behind: "Master is so kind."

Chu Wanning held the plate and had no time to beat Mo Ran, so he gave him a glance: "Mo Weiyu, let's see how I can deal with you."

Mo Ran rubbed against Chu Wanning's neck, and said with a smile, "All listen to Master."

The two said goodbye to Mr. Lu, and only said that the pastry was a gift from an old friend. The young man in his thirties held a stack of pastries and cried like a child.

Mo Ran and Chu Wanning sat by the moat, looking at the shimmering moonlight in the water, and in the distance were the lights of thousands of families, singing and dancing.The more prosperous a place is, the less it can accommodate a person's sorrow and tears.Chu Wanning's mood was a little low, Mo Ran took out the bag of lotus crisps, and asked softly: "Master, do you want to eat, it's still hot."

Chu Wanning was stunned, and nodded slightly.He picked up one side and took a small bite, which was very sweet with the temperature of burning ink.

Mo Ran lowered his eyelashes and whispered: "I left without saying goodbye that day...it was not intentional."

Chu Wanning responded in a low voice. In fact, he had heard Xue Meng say the cause and effect. That night he sent Elder Greedy Wolf away, and looked at the rain-soaked Mo Ran leaning against the rock wall with a pale face. With two concentric knots, she is no longer angry.

He said softly, "Give it back to me."

The ink burned for a while: "What?"

Chu Wanning blushed slightly and scolded: "What else can you do, keep the broken concentric knot for yourself!"

The corners of Mo Ran's lips rose wildly. He hurriedly took out the concentric knot from his arms, and carefully re-tied Chu Wanning. He was too excited and couldn't control his hands. He tied it clumsily for a long time, which made Chu Wanning disgusted.

But he is happier than anyone else.

Mo Ran was dizzy with joy, and suddenly heard Chu Wanning ask: "Why is there still a book in my arms, what book can I take a look at?"

The ink burned secretly, and subconsciously squeezed his chest tightly.

Chu Wanning's complexion sank, and suddenly he became crimson again. He scolded sharply: "Mo Weiyu, your mind is not right!"

Mo Ran froze in place, Chu WanNing... What kind of book do you think?
