Chapter 40 Dust

Not coming to the next life... Messed with dust... Whoever is waiting for someone to come back... Those who should come don't come... Whoever is here and who is not... Those who should be are not here...

"Is this a lullaby?" Meng Fanyu stopped the car and listened to the speaker for a while.

The woman's voice began to be a little fuzzy, gradually overwhelmed by the noise, the intermittent singing slowly faded away, and disappeared after a while, and the monotonous noise rustled from the speakers.

"I heard my mother sing when I was a kid..."

After saying this, both of them were stunned, Lu Yuan opened his mouth half-open and remained silent for a long time.He never thought that he would subconsciously say such a sentence.

When I was young.

my mother.

It was impossible to say it out of his mouth, but now he said it easily as if chatting.

"What else?" Meng Fanyu quickly realized and asked.

"... I don't remember." Lu Yuan thought for a while, but he didn't know why he said that.

"Don't think about it deliberately, maybe there will be more clues in the unconscious state." Meng Fanyu started the car, reached out and turned off the radio that was still rustling.

Lu Yuan didn't answer, he didn't know what Meng Fanyu's words meant, he was sure that Meng Fanyu's knowledge was definitely not one or two points since he was on the mountain, his trust in Meng Fanyu was shaken, and this kind of wavering was beyond his control. It made him helpless.

He shook his head irritably, and rubbed his temples lightly with both hands, trying to divert his attention away from Meng Fanyu.Apart from Meng Fanyu, he still has a lot to think about.

"Besides Jingling, there are other people or forces who also want this pendant." Lu Yuan said softly.Whether he said this sentence to himself or to Meng Fanyu, he didn't know, he just said it habitually, and he would do it just because Meng Fanyu was by his side.

"Huh?" Meng Fanyu didn't say much, but just responded and signaled him to continue.

"Xiao Yu really wants this thing. Judging from her words, this thing can make her disappear. If this pendant is really a spirit-binding bottle, it can send her away... She doesn't want to leave, or she got this thing She doesn't have to go," Lu Yuan said slowly, while sorting out what he saw and heard in the house, "but she can't get it, and what she said, there are still people who want it."

"Who."

"Lu Jie, Lu Jie also wants this thing." Lu Yuan rubbed his eyebrows and made up his mind, "Can I assume that they are all people trapped between life and death, whoever gets this thing can do anything things, or can I boldly imagine that this thing is more than what they want..."

Lu Yuan turned his head and looked at Meng Fanyu's side face: "You want it too."

Meng Fanyu's foot on the accelerator loosened, and the speed of the car slowed down. He smiled, didn't look at Lu Yuan, and didn't make a sound.This reaction disappointed Lu Yuan, and he felt a severe pain in his heart. Although the speculation he said was his own judgment, he was very much looking forward to Meng Fanyu's answer being negative.

And Meng Fanyu didn't affirm or deny it, this reaction already explained everything, even if he didn't want this thing, it was unavoidably related to this thing and this matter.

"Fanyu," Lu Yuan sighed, looking at the road in front of the car, it was already dark, and he could only see the blurred rocks and tree shadows on both sides, and the ten-meter asphalt road illuminated by the car lights, "You What do you want it for?"

Meng Fanyu didn't answer, what do I want it for... Lu Yuan, you shouldn't ask that, it's my thing.

The car was very quiet, only the repeated low roar of the engine.Lu Yuan looked at the yellow line receding rapidly in front of the car. After a long time, he couldn't tell whether the car was moving forward or backward.Trapped in a stuffy jar with no way out, he looked in all directions for a way out, but each new discovery would plunge him into greater confusion.

Lu Yuan touched the pendant, thought for a while, took it out and looked at it, put it on his mouth, his thoughts turned back and forth around this thing that hadn't attracted his attention for more than ten years.

Xiao Yu, or the scene where the woman with Xiao Yu's appearance reached out to grab the pendant but couldn't get it was lingering in front of his eyes.This thing is not just something you can get.

"If you want..." Lu Yuan leaned on the back of the chair, tilted his head to face Meng Fanyu, "Just take it, can't you?"

Meng Fanyu pressed the cigarette lighter, took a cigarette from the cigarette case, and was silent for a while: "I can't take it."

Lu Yuan felt tight in his chest for a while, and felt a little out of breath. This seemingly understatement answer shattered the last bit of luck in his heart for Meng Fanyu.He opened the car window, and the icy night wind swept in, and his hands almost lost their temperature in a few seconds, as if they were pinching a piece of ice.

"How could this be?" Lu Yuan turned his head to look out the window, raised his hand to press the corner of his eye, and controlled the tears that wanted to come out several times.He has grown up so big, he has never cried in his memory, and nothing will make him cry, even facing Han Xu who may be a passerby from now on, but now he can't restrain his urge to cry.

"Fanyu, if you want..." Lu Yuan took off the pendant from his neck, "I'll just give it to you... I'm tired, if the final result of this investigation is like this, then so be it ..."

"Close the window." Meng Fanyu interrupted him, but did not take the pendant he handed over.

"I'm bored," Lu Yuan didn't take back his hand, "I've given it to you, you can't take it yourself, I can just give it to you."

Meng Fanyu stared at the front, pressed it, and closed the car windows, then reached out to hold Lu Yuan's hand holding the pendant, and held the pendant into Lu Yuan's palm: "Not now, when you really want to give it to me when."

When do you really want to give?Lu Yuan was stunned, didn't he really want to give it?Just as he was about to ask, Meng Fanyu turned his head and looked at him: "No matter what happens, don't open the window."

Lu Yuan was a little puzzled, but he quickly realized that he followed Meng Fanyu's line of sight and looked towards the front of the car.I don’t know when the sky was completely dark, and the rocks and trees on both sides of the road could no longer be seen. The only thing that could be seen clearly was the area illuminated by the car lights. silence.

Lu Yuan stared out the window, the darkness made him a little uneasy.

A white shadow flashed past the car window, and before Lu Yuan could see it clearly, it disappeared.He quickly turned his head to look over, but found nothing.He can be sure that he is not blind, the white in the darkness is very obvious, plus what Meng Fanyu said before, something must have happened.

Before he could figure it out, a white shadow flashed past the window again.He stared at it reflexively, and a pale face almost floated backward against the window glass.

Lu Yuan leaned back abruptly, and subconsciously hid beside Meng Fanyu. The face only appeared outside the window for a second or two, but it was enough for Lu Yuan to see the black hole-like eyes on his face.

"What's that?" Lu Yuan asked.

"I'm in a hurry." A faint smile appeared on the corner of Meng Fanyu's mouth.

Lu Yuan gritted his teeth and looked out the window again. Sure enough, not too far away, the same white shadow flashed past his eyes again, with the same pale face and black hole-like eyes.After a few times, he found a problem.

"Fanyu... are we going around in circles?" Whenever the white shadow floats past the window, he can see the road sign showing 100 behind the shadow.

"Yeah." Meng Fanyu smiled.

"Ghost hitting the wall?" Lu Yuan was a little unbelievable. They were not in an open space or some kind of spacious place. They were driving on a winding mountain road with only two lanes, and they would actually hit the wall?

"Eighteen, it's fine." Meng Fanyu said, and stopped the car.

"What?" Lu Yuan looked at Meng Fanyu, who was about to open the door.

"Stay in the car," Meng Fanyu looked at him, "Don't get down, trust me this time."

Lu Yuan didn't speak any more, his eyes stopped on Meng Fanyu's left hand.

Meng Fanyu held the car door with his left hand, and a trace of black mist was slowly releasing from his hand.The black mist was not blown away by the night wind, but on the contrary, it seemed to be controlled by something, and slowly spread around his hand to his arm.

When Meng Fanyu closed the car door and walked to the front of the car, the black mist had surrounded him more and more. The seemingly light and textured fog did not drift away in the night wind, gathering in violation of the laws of physics. Around Meng Fanyu.

A white shadow slowly appeared in the darkness in the distance, and Lu Yuan could tell at a glance that it was the thing that had flashed past the car window many times.The white shadow swayed gently with the wind, and walked into the range illuminated by the headlights.

Lu Yuan finally saw the shadow clearly with the help of the light, and he was no longer surprised by anything he saw, even if he saw clearly that the shadow was Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu stood in the light, wearing an old-fashioned white dress, but strangely wearing a pair of older embroidered shoes, and the color was gorgeous purple.

"Seventh Wife." Meng Fanyu's voice came out of the black mist without any emotion.

A smile suddenly broke out on Xiao Yu's expressionless face, his mouth was wide open, his teeth gleamed with tiny pale white lights under the light, Lu Yuan couldn't help frowning, his body felt a little chilly.

"I'll take him away." A gentle female voice sounded, and Lu Yuan was a little surprised, not because of the voice, but because it was Xiao Yu's voice he heard in the old house. What surprised him was that he couldn't judge where the voice came from. Xiao Yu's mouth was still wide open, and the weird smile on his face hadn't disappeared yet.

"Impossible, I don't want to repeat it again, go where you should go." Meng Fanyu's cold voice showed some impatience.

"Who do you think you are?" The gentle voice changed its tone at this moment, becoming sharp and angry, the smile on Xiao Yu's face faded, and the eyes were blood red, "You can do without that thing What--"

Lu Yuan covered his ears, the sound cut through the night, piercing his eardrum like a sharp knife, making him dizzy for a while, his stomach was overwhelmed, and the strong vomiting made him unbearable.

Meng Fanyu raised his left hand abruptly, and the black mist surrounding his body gathered towards his left hand as if he had been instructed, and after a few seconds, it all gathered on his left hand. The black mist was like a living substance, slowly Changed into a shape similar to a sword: "You try."

Blood began to gush out of Xiao Yu's blood-red eyes, slid across her pale face, dripped on the white skirt, and continued to drip on the shoes.

"I don't have time, he's waking up...give me..."

In this resentful voice, Lu Yuan felt as if his heart was being pinched by something, and there was despair in the great pain. He couldn't understand what he was feeling at this moment, followed by a sense of suffocation. He felt that the car The air inside was sucked out, and I couldn't breathe.In the confusion, he touched the door handle, and a strong desire to open the door dominated him. With a slight tug, he could be freed from this pain.

"Don't come down." Meng Fanyu's voice reached his ears, it was a voice he was familiar with, and it would sound every time he needed someone to rely on.

Lu Yuan's hand was hanging down, his consciousness was in a trance, he saw Xiao Yu rushing towards Meng Fanyu with blood all over his body in the chaos.Meng Fanyu didn't move, and when Xiao Yu jumped in front of him, he gently stretched his left hand forward, and the black mist pierced through Xiao Yu's body like a sharp sword the moment Xiao Yu rushed up.
