Around

When Lian Qiao opened her eyes again, she was lying in a very cold place.It was very dark around, she tried to move her fingers, but with a click, she hit something hard.She lay quietly, feeling cold, but her body didn't respond.She was terrified—it was obviously in such a cold place, why didn't her body tremble?

"Are you awake?" A voice rang out in the darkness.It was clear and gentle, something she had never heard before.

What's wrong with me?What happened?Lian Qiao also wanted to speak eagerly, but just like before, her body didn't respond.The only thing that could move was a pair of eyes, so she could only try to keep them open.

The speaker seemed to have noticed her embarrassment, and even Qiao felt a gentle light——

If it wasn't for that person's translucent body, Lian Qiao would have thought she had met a fairy.

Standing in front of him was a... man.For some reason, even Qiao felt that men or boys were not so suitable for him.This person has a gentler attribute than a man, but also a more resolute element than a boy.He was wearing a light blue robe, which was not very neat, but looked casual and refined.Lian Qiao couldn't help but think of two words-a gentleman is dignified, gentle as jade.The person in front of him is like Wen Yu wrapped in water, making people feel good at the first sight.

The soft light emanated from him, he stood there quietly and let Lian Qiao look at him, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, he looked... a very gentle person.

Lian Qiao also fell in love with him almost at first sight.However, the fright that just happened made her very cautious.

"You are a ghost." She stared at the man.Although she couldn't speak, she knew that the other party would definitely be able to hear her.

The man smiled: "Strictly speaking, I'm a soul." He got closer, and even Qiao could see his eyes clearly—there were water waves flowing in his eyes.Lian Qiao also looked at such a pair of eyes, and her strange, restless heart gradually calmed down.

He properly distanced Lian Qiao from a distance that would make her feel at ease, and carefully explained: "There are two types of 'ghosts' in the usual sense, one is 'po' and the other is 'soul'. The ghost left in the world because of an obsession or nostalgia is called "soul". It has no wisdom and no expression. As long as the wish is fulfilled, it will disappear. "Soul" is intelligent and full of emotions .Its spiritual power is much stronger than that of 'soul', and similarly, it is easy to go to extremes. The two you met just now are 'souls' that have just formed."

Lian Qiao has never heard of such a saying, and since she has been interested in ghosts and ghosts since she was a child, she can't help being puzzled when she hears this: "You said, are you... a soul?"

According to him, "soul" and "po" should be two independent entities. Why is it "soul" and "po" when it comes to him?

"Probably because I have both obsessions and feelings." The man said.

In other words, he is a... something neither human nor ghost...?However, Lian Qiao couldn't bear to use "something" to describe him. He is gentle and beautiful, better than most people.

"What is your obsession...?"

"I don't know either." He smiled again, but his eyes darkened a bit, "I don't remember."

Lian Qiao also wanted to ask again, when something flashed into her sight, her eyes suddenly widened——

Be careful!

She wanted to remind her but it was too late - Zhou Ying had already rushed towards that person.

The thick and long tongue was like a bloody whip, and it slashed hard at his face.The man froze for a moment, and quickly moved away.He dodged Zhou Ying's attack and lowered his face, but his voice seemed to be gently advising: "Go away."

Zhou Ying flinched, turned around, and snarled at the man viciously.Through the man's translucent body, Lian Qiao also saw Zhou Ying slowly bend down, put her hands on the ground, bow her body like an animal and let out a low warning sound.Even Qiao couldn't move around, and felt chills for a while.

The man didn't take it seriously, but frowned slightly, and then relaxed it quickly.He stood in front of Lian Qiaoye and confronted Zhou Ying. From Lian Qiaoye's perspective, he could only see his smooth jaw—it was stretched very tightly, drawing out an unusually beautiful arc.

"I want to make a deal with you." The man said suddenly.He turned his back to Lian Qiaoye, but Lian Qiaoye knew that the man was talking to him.

"what?"

"I want to borrow your body."

Although he looks gentle and harmless, but... borrowing his body to a ghost?It is not difficult for Lian Qiao to imagine what will happen in the future—he will stay in her body longer and longer, appear more and more frequently, until the body completely adapts to him, and then, "Lian Qiao also Soul" will be kicked out of "even Qiaoya's body".

The man saw her concern without looking back. "I only show up when needed," he promised.

"No, no." Lian Qiao also refused.Ghosts, they are all dishonest.

The man showed no particular emotion, but asked softly, "Don't you want to hear my reason for doing this?"

"What?" The question blurted out.

"It's to protect you." The man said, "It's also for Shentu City."

"Shen Tu?" Even Qiao was extremely surprised, "You know him?"

The man thought for a while and said, "I don't know. Maybe I know it, maybe I don't know it." He smiled slightly, "But I only remember this name."

"...You said, to protect me?"

"Yes," said the man, "you saw Die Xian." It was a curse that anyone who saw Die Xian would die.

"No, I didn't." Lian Qiao also felt wronged, she didn't even know who Die Xian was!

"You saw it." The man smiled slightly, pointed to a figure in the corner and said, "Isn't she right there?"

Die Xian is... Lin Bingbing? !

Even Qiao wanted to shake her head: "No, it's impossible."

"To be exact, she," the man pointed to Lin Bingbing. "And her," pointing to Zhou Ying again, "they are both."

Lian Qiao seemed to understand a little bit: "You mean, people who die will become Die Immortals?" She saw Lin Bingbing, so...wouldn't she... Lian Qiao didn't dare to think about it.

"You're right," said the man. "You're dead."

"Impossible!" Lian Qiao also yelled, refusing to believe everything she heard.

With her yell, Zhou Ying rushed forward again.

This time, the man didn't bother to deal with her anymore, he waved his wide sleeves, somehow, Zhou Ying was firmly nailed to the wall.Glancing at Lin Bingbing as if warning, he turned around and faced Lian Qiaoye again: "There are a lot of 'living souls' here, I'm afraid I can't handle that many."

Is this... a threat?If he didn't lend him his body, would he allow himself to be eaten alive by those "souls"?Lian Qiao glared at him angrily.

"That's not what it means." He smiled kindly, "With my ability, I can only protect one of your soul and body. Protect your soul, and your body will be invaded by other 'living souls'. If you hold your body, your soul will be scattered again, either becoming a 'soul' or a 'soul'." As long as he can enter Lian Qiaoye's body, he can directly control her body, and his soul will Will be hidden in the depths of the body - she just died, the strength is too weak.This can be seen from the fact that she can only lie in her body and cannot control herself to sit up.

Zhou Ying struggled against the wall, Lian Qiao also looked at her ferocious expression, chills crawled all over her body.She felt that what the man said was reasonable, and she was willing to believe him, but, things like giving up her body...

"The current you are too fragile." The man said, "This is the only way I can think of."

"Then...what about in the future?" Lian Qiao asked after a pause.Even if Die Xian's matter can be resolved satisfactorily, she is... dead.

This was quite a blow to Lian Qiaoye, if he died, he would have nothing left.Even if Die Xian disappears, she still can't come back from the dead, can she?

"I can't bring you back to life." The man looked at her apologetically, "I can only try my best to keep your body moving freely." He thought for a while, and then said, "When you get stronger, you can You can directly control your body." At that time, you can control your body to fulfill your final wish.He thoughtfully didn't say this, but even Qiao already understood.

She closed her eyes in pain and said wearily, "Let me think about it, please?"

As soon as the voice fell, there was a snap, and all the lights in the supermarket were turned on.Lian Qiao also saw all kinds of "people" appearing out of thin air. They were either pushing carts or carrying baskets, carefully selecting goods.

Only then did Lian Qiao see clearly that the place where she was lying was a freezer.

Someone pushed a cart past the freezer, Lian Qiao closed her eyes and lay quietly, she heard some conversations——

"What should I eat today?"

"Look and buy."

"That's how you are, you can say anything casually, but in the end I have to worry about everything."

When she was young, she went to the supermarket with her parents. At that time, her mother seemed to complain about her father in this way.But she always buys her father's favorite dishes at the first time.

"Mom, I want to eat ice cream."

"No, you won't be able to eat if you buy it."

"Just buy one, I'll take a look, don't eat."

When my mother was picking vegetables, she always pulled her mother's clothes and said so.My mother always refused her at the beginning, but in the end, she still couldn't resist her pleading, so she bought two big boxes softly.

……

How happy.

Why didn't you feel it when you were alive?Cold liquid dripped from the corners of her eyes, and she lay still, weeping uncontrollably.

"Hey..." She seemed to hear the man's sigh.
