There are many failures in the country

It was noon, and the villages in the mountains were peaceful and quiet, mixed with cicadas singing and cooking smoke.In the humble houses, we can vaguely see the previous layout, strings, ringing bells, a three-foot-high gate, and an iron brazier that has been abandoned for a long time.

The sun penetrated into the house, and it was not sultry. The shadow of the bird flitted in front of the bamboo couch, raising a person's long eyelashes, and blinked hesitantly with a trace of tiredness.

The suppressed voice in the depths of the throat was slightly blurred: "There is also a sun in the underworld? Could it be...the sky? I'm lucky. But no matter how good it is, I'm just a dead person."

The memory went back to the early morning, when the executioner's beheading knife was dazzling against the sun, and when it fell heavily on the neck, there seemed to be no pain as imagined, perhaps it was what the street script said: death without pain.

The problem is, this is too painless, I don't even feel it, and I just hang up.

It's not worth it, it's really not worth it.The more Shen Ling thought about it, the more unwilling he became. In other words, the feeling of beheading was too deceitful.

Unconsciously, he muttered again, his voice much smoother than before: "It doesn't count, it's too bad..."

"Have you said enough?" The joking tone sounded like it happened in the previous life.

Shen Ling woke up suddenly, shrank her body, and hugged her with a big hand, and the voice came from her earlobe: "People who have died once talk a lot like this. I don't have to hide so hard."

Cover your eyes with your hands, afraid that he will look over from a certain angle.There was silence behind her for a long time, but it was a dream after all, and tears oozed from her fingers uncontrollably.

When a person is dead, even what he thinks and hears is true.

That person is probably no longer in Songyan Town.If he hurried back, what would he see?Let's hope he doesn't see anything, it's really ugly.Maybe there is still a trace of blood hanging from that head...

"Why didn't you say it?" It was his voice again.

"Can you stop talking?" Shen Ling choked up crying, just wanting him to shut up.Being alive is shameful enough, but not wanting to die is just as embarrassing.The voice continued intermittently: "I'm already dead, can't you let me go?"

"Who said you're dead..." Yue Xingfeng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and raised his hand to wipe his lips lightly.

"Don't touch me! You bastard...is it warm?" Shen Ling stuck out the tip of her tongue and tasted it, it was really warm!How is this going!

Yue Xingfeng couldn't bear it anymore, he pushed his body in front of him, saw that his eyes were tightly closed, tears were streaming all over his face, and he kissed him on the forehead: "Is it all right? Are you alive or dead?" ?”

Shen Ling looked at him in disbelief, stretched out her fingers weakly, poked on his chest, poked on his face... elastic and warm, he was a living person!What's wrong?

Yue Xingfeng grabbed his hand and stuck it directly on his face: "Idiot."

"Ah! It's really alive!" Shen Ling sniffled and squeezed her face, her eyes suddenly widened like peach pits.

"Believe it?" Yue Xingfeng sighed helplessly, "I just said that your brother doesn't need to work so hard... What did you listen to? Well, you didn't listen at all."

"Impossible. I remember when I went to the execution platform, the knives fell..."

"Don't you think it was a bit dazzling at that time? Your brother let someone pass through a tunnel from the outside overnight, and at that moment, he replaced you as a death row prisoner." Yue Xingfeng paused, and seemed to be smiling, "I mean, I never saw you. If you touch you, you will faint, you won't...you won't faint from fright when the knife comes down, right? Hahahahahaha..."

"Don't laugh!" The voice was still choked, without any momentum.

Although it's no big deal to faint from fright, once Yue Xingfeng stabbed him out, it would be a great shame!

Shen Ling was annoyed for a moment, then fell silent again.The person who rescued him was Shen Yi, who cheated under the watchful eyes of everyone, and because of this, committed the crime of deceiving the emperor. Just based on this one, it was another crime that would harm the whole family.Why would he take such a risk?Could it be that, as Yue Xingfeng said, this elder brother has always stood by his side?

"Your brother is fine." Yue Xingfeng said suddenly.

"How do you know that I'm thinking...you're going back?" Shen Ling's eyes were full of surprise, it's quite a skill to be able to come and go freely in the windy capital.

"Apart from this, what else can you think about?" Yue Xingfeng smiled, "Don't worry, "you" are already dead, someone's crimes will be borne by someone, and your emperor will naturally not embarrass the Duke of Zhao."

Shen Ling was startled: "Aren't I alive?"

Yue Xingfeng pinched his chin: "The second young master of Duke Zhao's mansion is indeed dead, and you are just my Ling'er."

Shen Ling's cheeks became hot, and she turned her eyes away: "What's yours, go aside!"

The hand behind him suddenly pulled away, Shen Ling looked into the eyes of the man in front of him in surprise, slightly bent his brows, and looked like a smile that wasn't a smile, could it be that he really wanted to step aside?Because of face, he dared not speak, so he had to lower his head.

Unexpectedly, his shadow flickered, and he got closer: "If I really go aside, you will cry."

At any time, Shen Ling felt that face was the most important thing: "Cry? Stop joking! I just came back to life, what is there to cry about? Go!"

Yue Xingfeng seemed to be enlightened: "Oh, so I have such backbone. Okay, I'll go."

Shen Ling secretly raised his eyes to see, this man really lifted the quilt and got up!The side around me was suddenly empty, and the Xulong quilt seemed to be wrapped in the cold winter air, and I felt a little cold.

He was bending over to put on his shoes, and Shen Ling's eyes popped out, staring straight at him, and a voice came out involuntarily: "Hey..."

Hearing his own voice, he suddenly felt ashamed, and hurriedly shrunk his head under the quilt, who knew that he would be lifted out by two big hands all of a sudden.

Shen Ling's eyes were a little ignorant, looking at people in a daze.Suddenly, something fell in front of him with a "ding", and it was connected to a dark rope, swinging from side to side.I haven't figured out what's going on, but that thing is already hanging in front of my chest.

"It is said that the day of the execution was your 17th birthday. You are really unlucky, you can bump into it any day." Yue Xingfeng picked up the metal ornament on Shen Ling's chest, and put it on his index finger firmly, "This Something, here it is for you."

"My birthday?" Shen Ling clearly remembered that she never told him the date of her birthday.Could it be... Shen Yi again?When did the elder brother become a mother-in-law?

"Isn't the calligraphy in your room the one given to you by Shen Yi for your birthday last year?" Yue Xingfeng saw his blank face, "No, it was written by your brother himself. Didn't you read the words carefully?"

Shen Ling seriously wanted to go. He received a lot of gifts for his birthday last year. There were more than [-] calligraphy and paintings by famous artists alone.No wonder he had that expression on the second day of his birthday.

Yue Xingfeng hooked up his shirt, and threw the metal ornament into it: "For your birthday this year, I'm probably the only gift."

Shen Ling's chest felt cold, and she quickly took out the thing, held it in her palm and looked at it.It is a ring, the whole body is black, with a pair of wings on it, which looks familiar.

After thinking about it for a while, he finally remembered that this was somewhat similar to the Suzaku sculpture on Yue Xingfeng's chest!

Suzaku carved inscriptions are not ordinary things, if ordinary people use them to make tricks, they will definitely not even know how they died.Even though Nanyue is now under the ownership of Dachong, this kind of totem is still taboo, and no one will play with it as a ring for no reason.So, this kind of thing... Yue Xingfeng made it himself?He has this skill?

"This is a ring handed down from my Nanyue royal family. It was left by my father." Yue Xingfeng raised his right hand and put it on his ring finger, loose and loose, "It really doesn't fit, you should wear it."

"Hey! What are you doing to me with this thing! Take it back quickly!" Shen Ling just wanted to pick something up, but was held down.

"I'll take it for you. Stop talking nonsense!" Yue Xingfeng teased, "Girls need dowry gifts when they get married, but you are better off. Pushing back and forth, it's a waste of my time."

"You are the girl!" Shen Ling roared angrily, and immediately fell silent, "What dowry gift?"

Yue Xingfeng raised the ring of wings to his eyes: "Aren't you my wife? I have to show it anyway, huh?"

Shen Ling felt that her ears were burning a little, and her speech became inexplicably stuttering: "Daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law...why, I, a big man, became your daughter-in-law!"

Yue Xingfeng made a gesture to take back the ring: "Don't forget it, give it back to me." After a little tugging, he found that Shen Ling had already held the ring tightly, and he couldn't help teasing, "Isn't it?"

"There's no reason to go back to something that has been released." Shen Ling really didn't have the confidence to say this.

"Then are you my wife?" Yue Xingfeng said as he picked his chin, seeing him nodding stiffly, he couldn't help kissing him.

According to Yue Xingfeng, this is called wedding candles.

Early the next morning, Shen Ling stood up clutching his waist, and scolded him mercilessly.Of course, only when Yue Xingfeng was not in the room could he scold so happily.Otherwise, it's another toss.

Not knowing where he went at dawn, Shen Ling put on his clothes and went out, seeing the familiar lush green hills, his eyes almost popped out.

This...isn't this the broken cottage where he and Xi Ze were kidnapped back then!

Suddenly someone popped out and smiled brightly at Shen Ling: "Sister-in-law!"
