withered willow leaves

When she came in front of us, my mother pointed at Mr. Liu even more violently and said to my father: "Master, he, he is a monster! I saw him coming out of this willow tree, and there was also him and Jin'er just now, just now they Kiss together!"

"What?" My father looked at me in shock, and then at Mr. Liu.Finally, he looked at his mother and asked in disbelief, "Ma'am, is what you said true?"

"Really, really! I saw it with my own eyes!" Mother nodded vigorously.

"Jin'er, you, you actually did that kind of scandalous thing with a man! And you're a monster!" My father said angrily, shaking his fingers and pointing at me.

"Father, I..." As soon as I was about to speak, my father interrupted me angrily: "How long have you been with this monster behind our backs?"

I looked at Mr. Liu, but didn't answer my father.

"Don't tell me, right? In my opinion, it must be this monster who made your mind bewitched by the magic. Wait for me to ask a Taoist priest to get rid of him!"

I grabbed Mr. Liu's palm nervously, and said to my father: "Father, I am not deceived. Mr. Liu and I are sincerely together. Although Mr. Liu is a demon, he has never harmed anyone." I felt Mr. Liu held me tightly back.

"How do you know that he has never harmed anyone? It is unreasonable for a male demon to seduce you to be with him! Maybe one day he suddenly kills you and you don't even know! The demon is a different kind, how could he do that?" Yes!" The father trembled angrily.

"I've stayed in this house for hundreds of years, and I've never harmed anyone. I'll do my best." Mr. Liu said seriously to my father.

"No matter what, it is impossible for you to be together. If I found out today, I will not allow you to continue, and you must be separated from this monster at the end of the day!"

"Why can't we be together? Because Mr. Liu is a demon? Because Mr. Liu is a man? If I am determined not to separate from him, are you going to beat me half to death and drive me out of the house like your grandfather treated your uncle?" I asked. Excitedly questioned his father.

"How do you know about your uncle?" My father asked me a little suspiciously, and then he said seriously: "You are different from your uncle, he is humiliating himself! You are only bewitched by monsters now, just get rid of him, You'll be fine!"

I can't understand why my father is so paranoid that I have fallen into Mr. Liu's enchantment?Why do you have to be paranoid that even demons are not good?I calmly said to my father: "I am sober, no matter what, I will not be separated from Mr. Liu."

"Jin'er, you are so obsessed! Madame, quickly, take Jin'er back to the room, and don't let him see this monster again!" My father pushed my wheelchair with my mother, and I held onto Mr. Liu's hand tightly. A hand that refuses to let go.

"Jin'er, be obedient and let go, please? Mother, I beg you!" My mother's voice was already crying, but I was unmoved: "Father, mother, I beg you too, don't leave me and Liu Mister separate."

During the stalemate, Mr. Liu who had been silent all this time squatted down, gently stroked the top of my head, and said softly like a sigh: "Jin'er, let go first."

I shook my head desperately, and the strength in my hand tightened even more.

Seeing that I refused to let go of Mr. Liu, my father became even angrier, so he snapped my fingers instead.

Mr. Liu persuaded me from the side: "Jiner, let go first, your parents won't listen to what you say now, and think of a way later."

Under my father's strong pulling and Mr. Liu's gentle struggle, I was finally pushed back to the room by my mother. I heard the sound of a lock outside, and my parents locked me in the room.I slammed on the door hard and yelled loudly: "Father, mother, let me out! Please!" I yelled for a long time, but no one answered, and finally I stopped discouraged.

Why did it suddenly become like this?I thought that Mr. Liu would never be seen by others. I thought that Mr. Liu and I could stay together safely without being discovered.Now it happened unexpectedly. "Mr. Liu..." I whispered sadly.

"Jin'er..." A hand stroked the side of my face, I turned my head, it was Mr. Liu, and I raised my hand to cover the back of Mr. Liu's hand in surprise: "Mr. Liu!" Looking at the closed door, I asked, "Where are my parents?"

"They left." Mr. Liu squatted down and looked at me.

"Mr. Liu, why can my parents see you? Is it because of your physical condition this time?"

"Probably yes." Mr. Liu gently stroked my face with his thumb.

"Mr. Liu, what should we do now? If my father really went to invite a Taoist priest..." I was halfway through my words when I suddenly heard my father's voice from outside: "Master Daoist, this willow tree has become a spirit. Hooked the child's mind!"

"Mr. Liu..." I looked at Mr. Liu at a loss.A strange old man's voice sounded outside again: "This willow is a geomantic willow that has lived in the house for hundreds of years. If it is removed, your house may have bad luck and disasters. Besides, the willow tree in the Pindao Temple exudes There is no evil in the Qi of Rui Ze, so why get rid of it?"

"This willow tree spirit seduced the child, and he has already had evil thoughts, so he can't stay anymore!" I heard my father say this.

"Hey, have you thought it over and decided to get rid of it?" asked the old man who claimed to be poor.

"It must be removed!" Father said firmly.

Hearing this, I worriedly said to Mr. Liu: "Mr. Liu, can you take me out? I'm going to see my father."

Mr. Liu sighed, looked at me and said, "Jin'er, we are together, there will be such a day sooner or later, this situation should have been thought of long ago."

At this time, the old man outside said with a sigh: "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable." Then he chanted an incomprehensible mantra.

My eyes were red with anxiety, and I urged Mr. Liu: "Take me out quickly, I'm going to stop...Mr. Liu!" I stopped urging, and looked at Mr. Liu in horror.At this time, Mr. Liu's body was appearing and disappearing, and then gradually became transparent.

In a panic, I held Mr. Liu's transparent face with both hands, and called him tremblingly in my crying voice: "Mr. Liu, Mr. Liu..."

"Jin'er..." Mr. Liu grabbed my hand tightly, and the force on his hand made me hurt. I felt that Mr. Liu was in extreme pain. He fell to the ground, curled up, and held my hand tightly. The movement took me out of the wheelchair, and my knee hit the ground, but I didn't care about myself.He was about to hug Mr. Liu, who was suffering extremely painfully, but he missed it and put his hands on the ground before his body fell.There is no longer Mr. Liu's figure in front of me. The gradually transparent figure just now disappeared completely. Mr. Liu, he disappeared...

I lost my mind for a moment looking at the empty floor, and when I came back to my senses, I called out to Mr. Liu over and over again in despair. Tears flowed from my eyes, dripping down, and wet the ground.

"Jin'er, you haven't eaten for three days. Listen to your mother, eat as much as you want." My mother stood beside me and said to me.

I sat under the willow tree, gently stroking the tree with my hand, and said: "Don't eat." The voice was dry and hoarse, and then I coughed violently. My mother stroked my back for me, and I coughed for a while Only then did he stop, and he held his chest to calm his breath, and he felt better after a while.

The mother said again: "Well, if you don't want to eat, then drink the medicine first, okay?"

I didn't respond, I closed my eyes and listened to my mother sigh and then began to say: "Jin'er, you don't eat or drink all the time, and you don't take medicine when you are sick. If you continue like this, your body will collapse."

"Mother knows, you blame your father for asking someone to get rid of that willow demon. But we did this for your own good. If you are with that male demon, there will be no good results."

"To the end..."

"Mom, let's go, I want to be quiet for a while." I interrupted my mother's chatter.

"Jin'er, your father and I are your biological parents. You went on a hunger strike with us because of a monster, and you said you... oh!" The mother sobbed, sighed heavily, and left.

"For my own good... There is no good result..." I murmured what my mother said just now, and laughed out loud, laughing like crazy. Gradually, my vision blurred, as if a drop of water fell on my hand, Hot and humid.I coughed violently again, and it stopped after a while. I leaned my head against the tree trunk weakly, and said softly to myself: "Mr. Liu, do you know? Since you left, at home, As the Taoist said, bad luck and disasters began to occur frequently. The elder brother was dismissed from office and forced to reconcile with the prime minister's daughter by the prime minister's mansion. The second sister encountered a gangster when she went out and committed suicide in her room after returning to the mansion. The family business Several shops were losing money and went bankrupt, and my father suffered several blows and suffered a stroke.” When I said this, I smiled and continued, “I, too, will go with you soon.” As I spoke, I raised my hand It covered the tree and stroked it twice.In a daze, I seemed to see that blue figure, he was leaning against the willow tree beside me, just like the scene when I first saw him, he put his index finger on his lips and looked at me with a gentle smile, I looked back at him and smiled, and was about to reach out to touch him, but that figure disappeared in front of my eyes.There was no one beside me, and I was the only one under the tree, and that blue figure never appeared.He will never appear again.He is long gone, long gone...

"Mr. Liu..." I murmured his name, hugged the willow tree tightly, and slowly closed my eyes, with tears falling from the corners of my eyes.

………………

The wind stirred the withered willow branches, and the long hair and clothes of the person hugging the trunk under the tree, and the teardrops that fell from the corners of the person's eyes were blown away.

After an unknown amount of time, a woman came to look for the man and called him a few times, but there was no answer, so the woman stretched out her hand to push gently, but there was no response, and what she touched was cold and stiff.After the woman reacted, she finally burst into tears.

The ancient century-old house changed from prosperity to desolation overnight.In the huge house, there were only the eldest son who was so drunk every day, the head of the house who was paralyzed on the bed and unable to move, and the weak and aging woman who was crushed by the blow and the burden of supporting the whole family.
