The Haunted

Chi Yan carried Zheng Bo on his back around the mountain, and gradually lost his strength, but there was still a lush forest in front of him, with no human habitation in sight.

The breath of the old man behind him became weaker and weaker. Chi Yan put Zheng Bo on a big rock to examine carefully, and saw that the old man's whole body was covered with a bluish-gray dead breath.

He was heartbroken, he looked into the distance and could not see the hopeful road ahead, looked at the sun in the sky that was already westward, and then looked back at the way he had come... Finally, he gritted his teeth, put Zheng Bo on his back, and walked quickly to the original road returned.

It's not just a marriage, he just agreed!Nothing is more important than Zheng Bo's life!

He has been educated since he was a child, saying that marriage is the order of his parents and the words of the matchmaker, and he cannot help but make decisions privately.But his mother died young, and his father ignored him for more than twenty years, Chi Yan's heart was already chilled.For him, Zheng Bo is the closest family member, and he must not just watch Zheng Bo die like this.

Strange to say, it was a long journey, but when he went back, he was extremely relaxed. When the sun was setting, he had already stood at the gate of the mansion again.

In the afterglow of the sun, the huge Washington DC looked differently cold and desolate, but Chi Yan didn't care about it at this time.As soon as the door opened, he couldn't wait to say to the older woman who opened the door: "I agree to the marriage, please save Zheng Bo!"

Hearing what he said, the two women didn't show unnecessary expressions, as if they had expected this result, but there was a trace of intolerance and compassion that Chi Yan couldn't understand faintly flowing from their black eyes.

Chi Yan couldn't think of anything more, he just felt that the owner of this house was obviously of extraordinary status and power, so he could live in a mansion of this size.The so-called "the emperor's daughter does not worry about marrying", then it should not be too difficult for such a family to talk about marriage.Therefore, all Chi Yan could think of was that either the daughter of the family was more beautiful than others, or that the girl she was talking about had some congenital defects, so she had to use this method to force him to agree to the marriage.

Chi Yan has been familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics since he was a child, and he has never been enlightened on the relationship between men and women in more than twenty years, and he has never liked anyone. After agreeing to this marriage, he was relieved.Xin Dao said that he agreed to this marriage in order to save Zheng Bo. Although there was a factor of the other party threatening his life, he agreed anyway. Whatever it is, as long as they get married, the other party will be the wife he is marrying, and he will love her all his life and never leave her.

After he agreed, he didn't see the two women calling for someone again, but two teams of attendants in soap clothes suddenly came out of the mansion that had been empty for many days.There were six of them in total, carrying an empty soft gauze sedan chair in their hands, they walked towards the door very quickly.He didn't raise his head when he got close, and kept his body bent all the time, only helped Zheng Bo onto the soft sedan chair, then turned around and walked into the mansion.

Chi Yan hurriedly followed, but no matter how fast he walked, he couldn't keep up with the six people carrying the soft sedan chair. The six attendants were always walking lightly at a distance in front of him.Chi Yan watched them lead Uncle Zheng into a courtyard that he had never been before, and just about to follow in, the younger woman stopped him: "Since the young master has agreed to the marriage, the old man will be safe and sound. Young Master can wait by the side, but you must not enter this yard to look, otherwise, if something goes wrong, the servant girl will not be able to take care of it. When the old man is free, the maidservant will naturally tell the young master."

Chi Yan had no choice but to stop in resentment, and followed the girl into a room in the next yard to wait.This family has a lot of weird rules. It is obviously a powerful family, but there are strange things everywhere. It is not the first time he has seen it.

Fortunately, he didn't wait too long, but after an incense stick, the older woman came over and told him that Uncle Zheng was fine and could go and have a look.

Chi Yan followed into the room where Uncle Zheng was staying, and felt that there was nothing unusual about the courtyard. He didn't understand why he was not allowed to follow him in before. Could it be that the doctor had some eccentricity and didn't want others to see him treating illnesses.No matter what, Chi Yan sat on the edge of the bed and looked at the rosy complexion of the old man beside him, and finally heaved a sigh of relief.

Ever since Chi Yan agreed to the marriage, the mansion's attitude and care for him have changed.The young girl stayed here to take care of Chi Yan and Zheng Bo's daily necessities, three meals a day were served with extremely delicate and delicious dishes by the older woman.Chi Yan's family background is not bad, but the level of luxury of the dishes in this mansion is still something he has never seen before.

After all, Zheng Bo has lived quite a long time, and he is not an ordinary farmer. After he woke up, he soon realized that something was wrong.He asked Chi Yan, Chi Yan didn't say anything at first, but later he thought that he couldn't hide this matter from Zheng Bo anyway, so he told Zheng Bo that he agreed to marry this family.

Although Chi Yan didn't say it clearly, the old man could figure out the key point if he thought about it for a while. He understood that the young master agreed to the marriage to save himself, and he immediately cried out that I'm sorry madam for hurting the young master. I really planned to hang myself for death when there was no one around.From Zheng Bo's point of view, the young master agreed to this marriage just because of him, and although this family is rich and powerful, but to use this method to coerce people into agreeing, what kind of good marriage can it be if the master has never seen his face before?Marriage is a major event in life, he would rather die than bring his young master into trouble, he thinks that as long as he dies, the young master will not owe this family anything and have nothing to worry about, and this marriage will naturally be voided.

Fortunately, Chi Yan found out in time and saved the old man.

But Chi Yan became impatient. After five days of raising Zheng Bo, he was almost healed, even much healthier than before.He just wanted to get married as soon as possible, raw rice and cooked rice, firstly to cut off Zheng Bo’s weird thoughts, so that the old man would not be able to think about it one day; secondly, he was going to Beijing to catch the exam. For a distance, after he went to Beijing, he still had to rent a room to prepare for the exam, and visit his old teachers and friends for advice. Thinking about it this way, there would be no time to delay. If he stayed here for a month at most, he would have to go on the road.

The mansion is huge and empty, and Chi Yan couldn't see the steward or the owner of the mansion, so he could only tell the elder woman what he wanted, and asked her to convey it on her behalf, and said that if the wedding date is too tight, within a month It is impossible to get married in a hurry, and he can also wait for him to pass the exam. Since he has already agreed, he will never break the contract.

A day later, the older woman brought a reply, saying that ten days later was a good day to get married.

Although Chi Yan felt that the time was a little tight, he didn't shirk it anymore, so as not to be thought by the other party that he was intentionally delaying the repentance of the marriage.The owner of the house also brought a message. Going out is no better than staying at home. Everything can be done in a simple and simple way, and dowry gifts and the like can be avoided.On the one hand, Chi Yan felt that the owner of the family was being considerate at this time, but on the other hand, he couldn't help thinking about how unmarried his daughter was?But he still took off the jade pendant he was wearing next to him and gave it to the owner of the family as a betrothal gift.

That piece of jade pendant was left by his mother, its fineness and texture are very good, the age cannot be seen, so it will definitely not be unhandy.

Chi Yan also proposed to see the master before the marriage, but the two women refused on the grounds that her master was sick and not suitable for seeing guests; I asked about the identity of the family and the information about the bride, but the other servants seemed to be deaf and dumb. They only did their own work and ignored his words. , Don’t talk about it, but keep silent about the others.

The customs in this mansion are different from those in Chi Yan's hometown. Instead of going out early in the morning at dawn, the bride and groom will pay their respects in the auditorium after sunset.Chi Yan thought to himself that this would be easy, and then asked the two women who would be there during the wedding and whether there were many guests.

The young woman looked at him, lowered her eyes and said: "The master said that everything should be kept simple, and there are not many guests. The young master has a lot of work to do at night, and the master told him that he is afraid that the young master will not be able to stand it at night, so he should rest well during the day. Enough energy means that everything is arranged by him.”

Chi Yan thought the same, the location of this mansion is so secluded, and the wedding date is so tight, I am afraid that after the invitations are delivered, the guests will not be able to leave in time, so it is not surprising that there are so few visitors.

In this way, soon everything was ready, and it was the wedding day.

Chi Yan was not too polite, he slept beautifully in the bedroom all day during the day, woke up in the afternoon, began to wash and change his clothes, and put on a brand new groom's robe.

As the sky gradually darkened, two teams of bearers waited outside the door at some point, carrying a bright red sedan chair, waiting for him to go up.

Chi Yan frowned and complained to the two women: "There is no such thing as a bridegroom sitting in a sedan chair, you should bring me a horse."

The older woman glanced at him and said calmly: "This is because the master is sympathetic to the young master's hard work, so the young master can get on the sedan chair."

Sitting on the sedan chair, Chi Yan didn't have so many scruples. He rolled up the curtain of the sedan chair and looked outside, and found that the owner here obviously still attaches great importance to this marriage. Silk lanterns.In the mansion, there were quite a few black figures busily coming and going. They were obviously servants preparing for the wedding. It was completely different from the quiet and quiet scene in the past. Chi Yan didn't know that there were still people in the mansion for so many days. There are so many people living here.

He was surrounded and walked forward. Under the dim yellow lights, he could see that there were quite a few people who came to the wedding banquet. Everyone was beaming, and no one dared not to show a smile. The whole wedding hall was also luxuriously decorated. Elegant, it can be seen that the owner has spent a lot of thought.The people around were all saying auspicious words about congratulations, and it looked lively, but Chi Yan couldn't see clearly or remember the faces of the people at the wedding banquet, he just felt that they all looked like dark shadows .

He shook his head, thinking to himself that he slept too much today.

He stood still in front of the wedding hall, and finally saw his bride for the first time.His bride is extremely tall, a head taller than him, and has a slender and tall figure, looking full of strength, not like ordinary women.The bride's head is covered with a red hijab, but she is wearing a red wedding gown similar to his, instead of a woman's skirt.

Chi Yan was a little surprised, he had already guessed that his wife must be different from ordinary people to make marriage difficult, but he did not expect it to be like this.But right now, he couldn't tolerate him saying anything or refusing, and the situation was already much better than the worst he had imagined—marrying a wife, his wife was just taller than ordinary women, it wasn't a big deal.

Chi Yan and the bride worshiped heaven and earth under the auspices of the master of ceremonies. The bride was sent down by the maid, and Chi Yan was left outside to handle the toast with everyone. After a round of drinking, she was brought back to the new house.

Chi Yan was already dizzy from drinking at this time, and vaguely felt that something important was wrong, so he asked the maid leading the way: "Why didn't you see your master and wife?"

In his mind, it's just that the old man is usually sick and unwilling to see guests, so why doesn't his daughter show up on her wedding day.

The maid looked a little pale under the light of the night lights, she raised her face and smiled at Chi Yan, and said: "The bride is the master of my family. After marriage, the young master will be my wife."

Chi Yan was taken aback for a moment, and the two maids had already opened the door of the new room with smiles and pushed him in.Chi Yan subconsciously pushed the door, but couldn't open it, as if the door was locked from the outside.

He subconsciously felt that something was wrong, and he couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat.Looking back, I saw the bride wearing a wedding gown sitting on the mandarin duck bed waiting for him, the red gauze hanging down, adding a bit of haze.On the small table in the center of the room, the candle flames of dragon and phoenix twin candles flickered gently, but the room looked a bit gloomy.

Chi Yan hesitated for a moment, but finally turned around and boldly walked towards the bride.No matter what the situation is, his new wife is always the key.

Chi Yan walked up to him, tremblingly lifted the bride's hijab - unexpectedly, the bride was not ugly, but possessed a compelling nobleness and beauty, but her face was a little pale, and she looked like she had been weak all year round Sick.He is like those noble sons in the last imperial court of the previous dynasty, his whole body is full of grace and nobility, and his intimidating demeanor is even more extraordinary.

Only one thing, this bride is a man.

To be honest, after imagining various bad situations, Chi Yan was even relieved that the bride was a man, it was much better than what he had just imagined.What's more, people are always attracted by good looks. This person can be regarded as a dragon and phoenix regardless of his appearance and temperament. Chi Yan fell in love with him when he saw it, and remembered that he had met this person before. He went out to look for him that time Zheng Bo lost his way, and it was this man who showed him the way.

He remembered what the maid said just now, hesitated and asked: "You are the master here? You...why do you want to marry me?"

But the man stretched out a hand and pulled him to sit down beside him, and asked softly, "Are you cold?"

His hands were cold, like jade stones soaked by the cold wind in the cold winter, Chi Yan shook his head, and the man embraced him brazenly into his arms, whispering in his ear: "Marry you , of course because I like you. I've wanted you since the first time I saw you."

His voice was very low, like a love language whispered in his ear.Chi Yan had never heard such blunt words since he was a child, and his ears couldn't help but turn red.

The man watched his eyes deepen, and his hands began to move down from Chi Yan's shoulders, hugging him from back to front, and unbuttoned his wedding robe.

It was only at this time that Chi Yan came to his senses. For a while, he thought that they were married today, a marriage he had promised, and it was right to do so; But I couldn't think of what to ask for a moment.

Finally, he boldly stretched out his hand to hold the man's hand, raised his face and asked timidly: "I don't know your name yet..." On the wedding night, he still didn't know the name of the bride, so it was just a joke for others to say it out. of.

The man smiled lightly at him, and replied: "My name is Ye Yingzhi. I know you don't want to marry, so I married you to the public, but in private, you want to call me Husband."

The man was so imposing, Chi Yan couldn't think of any resistance, so he lowered his head under the pressure of the other party's gaze and called out "Husband" in embarrassment.He raised his eyes again, looked at the man and whispered "Welcome".

Before the third sentence could be uttered, Ye Yingzhi pinched her chin and pressed her between the sheets...

This night, the Furong tent was warm, Chi Yan was inexperienced, and was obsessed with the smell of alcohol. Basically, everything was at Ye Yingzhi's mercy, with only occasional small struggles, and in the end the man tore off a piece of red silk to tie her Both wrists were tied to the bedposts, completely at the mercy of the other party.

But he doesn't delve into it, and he doesn't like to inquire about other people's private affairs. Naturally, he doesn't know what other couples are like when they get married, and he feels that although Ye Yingzhi married him, he is still a man. The two of them must get along with each other The husband and wife are different, so they don't feel that Ye Yingzhi is doing something wrong. Instead, everything goes according to each other's wishes. The only worry is that Ye Yingzhi is not in good health.

Ye Yingzhi is the master of this mansion, and there is no one else. After Chi Yan married him, he naturally became the master of the mansion, and it was obvious that Ye Yingzhi loved him very much, so no one in the mansion would dare to disobey his orders. Then Zheng Bo was also supported by Haosheng.

Because of his father, Chi Yan had an indifferent view of his offspring since he was a child, and he didn't insist on having his own blood, and he didn't have any affection for other people, so although it is common sense that he should marry a woman, but he I have no dissatisfaction with my outstanding husband and wife.No one in the mansion can restrain them, and there are no rules, so after two or three days of marriage, the two of them stick together, almost like a newlywed every day.

After a few days, Chi Yan also found that the mansion was indeed sparsely populated, Ye Yingzhi was the only one who could be called the master, and there were not many other waiters.

During the day, he hugged Chi Yan to read books together, and at night, he hugged him with great affection and lingering affection. Sometimes he would take him for a walk around the mansion, or take him to see his collection, and let him choose what he liked to bring back to the house. Putting it on, the pampering and love in his bones can hardly be concealed.If Chi Yan wants something, it will definitely appear in front of him when he wakes up the next day.

No one had ever treated him so well before. Although Zheng Bo was loyal, the old man's loyal love for him was completely different from Ye Yingzhi's love and love for him.Chi Yan soon sank into it unconsciously, and almost forgot the strangeness and doubts in this mansion.

It's just that there are things that Chi Yan is not allowed to do. Ye Yingzhi put his arms around him more than once and told him: "Baby, this mansion is your home. You can do whatever you want. If you want to review your books, you can go to my study." No one will dare to disturb you. But there is one place you can’t go to, the innermost courtyard in the backyard is the ancestral hall, where the tablets of the deceased are enshrined, you must not go in.”

Chi Yan wasn't afraid of him these days, instead he hugged him and deliberately smiled and asked, "Then what if I go in?"

The man raised his hand and gently touched his lover's cheek, pursed his lips, and said softly and jokingly: "Then the husband can only punish you severely."

The smile on his face remained undiminished, but his deep black eyes were bottomless, but Chi Yan didn't notice this, he raised his head and kissed the man with a smile.

Chi Yan was not afraid of Ye Yingzhi, nor was he afraid of his punishment.He reads during the day, and when he gets tired, he wanders around the mansion, and gradually becomes familiar with the whole mansion, only the courtyard at the back has not been visited.

It was nothing at first, but as time passed, he became more and more curious——Ye Ying's surname is Ye, and the surname of the country is Ye, what is his identity, what is his origin, and if he is a relative of the emperor, why does he live here? In this mountain Washington?What else is there in the backyard?He and Ye Yingzhi are already married, and they have worshiped heaven and earth in a serious manner. If it is an ancestral hall dedicated to ancestors, why didn't Ye Yingzhi take him to worship?Did he not want him to know who his ancestor was?

He asked Ye Yingzhi these questions on the sidelines, but Ye Yingzhi always avoided talking about it; he wanted to inquire about something from the servants around him, but the two women hesitated to say anything, and the other servants Occasionally, I would bump into one or two, but they were all dumbfounded, and would not answer any questions he asked.

Originally, Chi Yan didn't have much expectations for this marriage, he just thought that no matter what his wife looks like, he should be respectful and friendly to each other, respect each other as a guest, and fulfill his responsibilities, but he didn't expect that his lover is not a woman, but he is very lovable .He had never had any romantic affairs with anyone in more than [-] years since he was born, and naturally he had never enjoyed this kind of sex, so after the wedding, Ye Yingzhi and Ye Yingzhi were really inseparable. With half a step, the other party hooked Ye Yingzhi so much that he couldn't do anything else.

He originally planned to go to Beijing for the exam in a few days after his wedding, but now he is reluctant to leave. The day of departure has been postponed again and again, and finally it seems that it can no longer be delayed. In three days, he must go on the road. It's because she doesn't even want to study the books anymore, she just wants to cling to Ye Yingzhi all day long.

But Ye Yingzhi just told him that he had to deal with some matters and would leave the house for a period of time, but not for long, he would be back in a day or two, and he would be able to catch up with him when he came back.

There is not much time left for the reunion, and the other party wants to leave, Chi Yan is naturally unwilling, but there is no way, Ye Yingzhi obviously has his own career, he can't force the other party to stay at home with him for a few days , so he nodded sullenly in agreement.

As soon as Ye Ying left, he had nothing else to do in the mansion except study, and his life became even more boring.Usually when Ye Yingzhi was around, Ye Yingzhi would take him out after he got bored with reading, and sometimes he would let him steal incense and ask for a couple of kisses when he returned to the room. I can't help it anymore, and the two of them will love each other regardless of time. Compared with the two, they feel more and more idle.Although the mansion is big, he has been around all over the past two days, and he finds it boring to go anywhere.

Chi Yan suddenly remembered the backyard that Ye Yingzhi didn't let him go to, and felt itchy in his heart, wanting to find out who the Ye family ancestor was.This thought lingered in his heart and became more and more intense. Anyway, he didn't believe that Ye Yingzhi would really punish him in any way.Driven by this thought, his people had already walked out of the yard, and suddenly turned back—Yingzhi had told him not to go, so as not to disturb the deceased, if he really wanted to go to worship, wait for Yingzhi to come back It's not impossible to go together again.

Thinking of this, Chi Yan turned back and sat in the study to continue reading.

Ye Yingzhi said that he would be back in a day or two, but it turned out that he had been away for less than a day. Chi Yan felt that he missed him so much that he couldn't sleep at night, and he kept looking forward to Ye Yingzhi's sudden return at night.But he waited for Ye Yingzhi all night and didn't come back. He was in a daze and gradually fell asleep.

The next day was still the same as yesterday, but Chi Yan couldn't read the book even more, and was always looking forward to Ye Yingzhi's return.In the end, he simply put the book away, walked to the door and wandered around, looking at the water in the lake in a trance, but his ears were always paying attention to the movement outside the door, eager to hear the news of the man's return.

The artificial lake in the Ye family's house is not small, but it does not have lotus or koi in it like ordinary people's houses. Instead, it is empty and lifeless, not even one or two small fish can be seen.Chi Yan was bored watching it, and couldn't hear the voice he wanted to hear for a long time, and his mind gradually drifted to the backyard that he had never been to.

What did you do to welcome him?What is his family doing?He didn't know anything about these situations, even if Ye Yingzhi encountered danger or difficulties outside, he probably wouldn't know about it, and couldn't help him.He and Ye Yingzhi are already married, so it should make sense for him to go to the backyard to have a look and pay homage to the ancestors, right?And Ye Yingzhi didn't come back for a long time. He was really worried about what trouble Ye Yingzhi encountered outside. It's better to learn about the background of Ye's family than to have a black eye and don't even know what his lover is doing. .

Chi Yan gradually made up his mind, turned around and walked towards the backyard.

At this time, the sun has slanted to the west, and there is only a little afterglow shining on the earth, but it has long lost the brilliant vitality of the morning and the enthusiasm of the noon, and it will give people a sense of lifelessness and depression.

Chi Yan walked to the door of the backyard, and the setting sun cast a long shadow behind him.The vermilion gate in the backyard was closed tightly, but it was not locked. He stretched out his hand and pushed it, and the door opened with a "squeak", like the vague groan of an old man.

Apparently, few people come to this yard, the air smells deserted, but it is cleaned very cleanly, there are two red paper lanterns hanging on the eaves, the lanterns are not lit; there are two stone beasts squatting in the yard , guarding the peace on the other side.

When Chi Yan came here, he hesitated again. The sky in the distance darkened little by little, revealing a little bit of indigo gray. The door of the shrine.

The sky was completely dark, and the afterglow of the setting sun had been completely swallowed by the distant mountains.There are no lamps or wax in the ancestral hall, it is dark and empty, and there is only a black tablet on the altar table, with a few gold letters written on it:

"The spirit of Ye's welcome".

There was a sudden burst of thunder in the sky, and lightning exploded above the sky. The bright white light instantly illuminated the scene in the ancestral hall, and also illuminated the words on the tablet——

This is clearly a mourning hall!

Chi Yan was taken aback, and he couldn't say why he was afraid, whether it was because of this weird mourning hall, the name on the tablet, or the vague premonition in his heart.

He stumbled back and turned around suddenly feeling something, only to see a familiar figure standing behind him, wearing a black robe and jade crown, with a pale complexion, looking at him calmly, with bottomless black eyes.

Chi Yan subconsciously looked at his feet, as if awakened suddenly, it was the first time he noticed that there was no shadow under his feet.

He trembled his lips and couldn't speak, but Ye Yingzhi took a step forward, stretched out his hand to wipe his blood-stained lower lip, and sighed softly: "Didn't I tell you not to come here? Why are you disobedient?"

Chi Yan shook his head, his eyes were filled with physical tears from excessive fright, he stepped back step by step, as if he wanted to escape, but was finally forced to the altar by the other party.

The man smiled lightly, stretched out his hand and put the tablet with his name on it aside, pressed Chi Yan's back with one hand from behind, pressed him down and kissed him...

……

Chi Yan didn't know how he got back into the bedroom afterwards, he only remembered that he wanted to run, but was dragged back by the man's wrist and waist. It's so frightening that it doesn't seem like human strength... In the end, he just closed his eyes, whimpered and let the cold ghost ask for more...

When he woke up, he was already sleeping in the bedroom of his new house.The room was very warm, and the bed was as soft and comfortable as ever, but as long as he thought of the true identity of his newlywed partner, he couldn't help shivering under the quilt.

The child is silent and strange.He has read poetry and books for more than [-] years, and now he encounters such a situation, and he doesn't know how to get rid of it.

He was frightened and bullied so wantonly, so it was no surprise that he became hot.Several charcoal stoves were burned in the house, and he was wrapped in a dry, warm and thick quilt, but he still felt cold in his hands and feet.

Ye Yingzhi asked Zheng Bo to wait on him, Chi Yan saw the old servant doing his best to take care of him with soup and medicine, his lips trembled a few times, and finally he swallowed the truth.

Such a powerful underworld thing, even if the old servant is told, there is no way to solve it, maybe it will implicate Zheng Bo instead.

After thinking for a long time, Chi Yan finally said: "Uncle Zheng, pack up your things and get ready to go. Time is running out."

"But young master, you are still sick..." Zheng Bo hesitated, obviously disapproving.

"It's too late." Chi Yan still insisted, "We'll leave early tomorrow morning."

Ye Yingzhi never showed up during the day, and Chi Yan stayed anxious until night, when suddenly the candles in the room flickered twice, a gust of cold wind hit, the door was pushed open with a "squeak", and the man left. came in.

He took off his shoes, socks and clothes as usual, got under the quilt and hugged Chi Yan.Chi Yan didn't dare to move, didn't dare to resist, didn't even dare to make a sound, so he turned his back and bit the corner of the quilt, closed his eyes and forced himself to endure, allowing the other party to do what he wanted.

It took a long time for Ye Yingzhi to feel a little satisfied, her cold body pressed against him and kissed the back of his neck, and then pulled Chi Yan's wrist dissatisfied to force him to turn around, pulled down the quilt in his mouth, and pressed against him He kisses lingeringly and asks endlessly...

Chi Yan could barely rest that night, and in the end he had no energy at all, and the fever on his body disappeared at some point.Ye Yingzhi took his hand, fastened the silver chain on him, and then did not lock him again, but prepared his luggage, gold and silver, and sent him and Zheng Bo out of the door with his own hands.

He clearly has no shadow, but he can still walk in broad daylight. What's more, Zheng Bo clearly saw it, but he was as unaware of it as he was back then. He didn't notice Ye Yingzhi and the strangeness of this mansion at all. It's like being fascinated by the mind.

Even though he was ignorant, Chi Yan vaguely understood that Ye Yingzhi was definitely not that ordinary ghost.

This time maybe it was because Ye Yingzhi personally sent them out, a small road led straight down the mountain, there was no fork in the middle, Chi Yan and Zheng Bo returned to the official road smoothly.

It was noon and the sun was scorching hot. Chi Yan raised his head and squinted at the bright sunshine. He felt that everything that happened in this mountain mansion was like an evil dream, and the only thing that could prove that it happened was probably the The exquisite and icy silver chain coiled around his left arm.

The scientific examination was about to come, and after Chi Yan settled down in the capital, he forced himself to put all his thoughts into studying the books.And Ye Yingzhi didn't bother him anymore, as if he really stayed in the mansion in the mountain, no news came, but he occasionally had a dream or two without a trace, and the dream was full of things related to that man. A scene where ghosts are entangled.

Chi Yan's foundation was already solid, and the article also had a certain amount of bottom-line thinking. As if to paralyze himself, he put all his energy and thoughts into preparing for the scientific examination.The final result lived up to expectations. Although it was not ranked among the top three, the results were also very good.

Or maybe it was because of his good luck that when he was assigned a position, he was neither sent to a remote place, nor could he not wait for the news of the appointment for a long time. He is the seventh rank, but he can actually do some practical things, and there are subsidies that allow him to rent a mansion of his own in the capital.

When the results came out, Uncle Zheng couldn't help but knelt down on the ground with a plop, and kowtowed to Tiansan, saying repeatedly that his wife had spirits in the sky, and wished the young master all the best.

As soon as things here settled down, and as soon as the string that was tense for the scientific research was broken, Chi Yan naturally thought of his "ghost lady".At that time, Ye Yingzhi wanted him to go back after finishing the science exam. If he finished high school, he would come out with him to become an official;

But Chi Yan was afraid of him from the bottom of his heart, now that he finally escaped from that haunted house, how could he be willing to go back; but if he didn't go back, he was afraid of offending Ye Yingzhi, which would lead to unforeseen consequences.Chi Yan was always in this dilemma until Zheng Bo asked him to bring his wife over.

When Chi Yan was thinking about whether to take his wife over to live with him, one day he came back from the yamen, and just about to enter the gate, he saw Zheng Bo was already waiting at the side, and when he saw him, he lowered his voice and ordered Said: "Madam came here, and now she is sitting in the main room."

Chi Yan froze all of a sudden, his palms felt cold involuntarily, and the fragment of being tightly absorbed by that thing in the mourning hall that day revived in his mind again - the silver-white lightning dancing outside the window, the roaring thunder, the thing was happy gasps and those cold kisses and touches...

He had an urge to turn around and run away now, so he wouldn't have to face the ghost waiting for him in the house.

But he didn't dare, he didn't even dare to let Zheng Bo see the slightest clue.

So he could only answer "Got it" with a calm face, and then walked towards the house pretending to be natural.

As expected, Ye Yingzhi was sitting in the room. When he saw him walk in, she stood up, gently embraced him in her arms and said in a low voice, "I told you to come back to me after the exam. I can come to you."

His embrace was cold, Chi Yan couldn't help shivering slightly, but he didn't dare to push it away.The "person" in front of him is still gentle and lingering, but he can never return to the sweet state of mind when he was newly married. His heart is firmly grasped by fear and he cannot break free.

At this moment, Ye Yingzhi held his left wrist and raised it in front of him, but he didn't remove the silver chain, and only kissed him lightly on his wrist.
