The first time, he said he just drank too much.

All the troubles at work made him restless, no matter how softly "she" comforted him, he could not calm down the frustration and resentment in his heart.

He accidentally hit harder, and when he woke up, he was taken aback by the blood on "her" face.

The second time, he didn't drink.

He begged "she" to give him another chance, and he swore to God that it was just an accident.

How could he be willing to hurt "her", even though she came from a humble background, and her father was only a small official in the Ministry of Government, he still treated her like a jewel, and he never treated her badly in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation all these years.

The person lying on the ground cried so vividly, "she" held her dizzy head and believed what the other party said.

And then the third time.the fourth time.the fifth time.

Sometimes it’s because the smile on “her” face is wrong, sometimes it’s because “she” didn’t say gentle comforting words immediately, sometimes for no reason, “she” was still pouring wine for the other party one moment, and was caught in the next moment. The terrible anger hit the head and blood.

Every time, he would apologize to her afterwards, and every time, his words and expressions were more sincere than the last time.

But he never stopped.

Begging for mercy will only make him more excited, whining and trembling will only make him more satisfied.

Once, "she" completely lost consciousness when her eyes went dark, and when she woke up, the surroundings were in a mess, leaving only the broken imperial curtain hanging empty in front of her eyes.

After the baby is born, everything will be fine.

"She" trembled, cried, and prayed to the gods and Buddhas with all her strength.

When he was pregnant, he really treated "her" a lot more pleasantly.They even briefly traveled back in time after giving birth to their daughter named Miki.

The mottled bruises on "her" gradually subsided, and the cancer of hope protruded again. Every night, she fell asleep with a feeling of almost panic.

When Mihime was seven years old, Yoshiki Fujiwara talked to "her" about future plans.

He said that Miji would become one of the most noble women in the world, with a smug look on her ugly face and a greedy and vicious glint in her eyes.

The little soft child that "she" brought to the world after a narrow escape, would quietly nestle in her arms, raising her hand to touch the bruise around her mouth.

...My lord.

In the middle of the night, "she" slowly sat up, looking down at the man who had become a stranger over the years.

...Does it hurt, Mother?

"Her" Mihime, "her" cute, young Mihime, will not become a tool in the hands of monsters.

"Her" life has been ruined by this monster, but "she" still has a daughter.

A daughter who knows nothing and has no power to restrain a chicken.

"She" held the scissors, her fingers trembling slightly, this time it was finally not because of fear.

The moment the scissors were stabbed down, the monster lying beside him woke up.

He suddenly pinched "her" wrist and slammed "her" aside.

"Her" long hair, clothes, weak and slender neck, powerless arms, everything that existed to make "her" beautiful and make men fall in love with "her" all became lethal at this moment The shackles and the poisonous net that cannot break free.

With a bang, "she" hit a hard edge, warm blood and hot lamp oil flowed out at the same time, and the imperial curtain hanging in the night wind quickly turned into a burning ball of fire, and the flames flowed along the lamp oil on the ground. The viper swam away, swallowing the room into its scorching belly.

It's on fire.

The temperature in the dream is so real, as if it can melt the bones of human beings, burn the long hair of human beings, and turn living human beings into a handful of pitch-black scorched earth.

The voice full of resentment and fury refused to dissipate, pressing towards her together with the raging fire around her.

...Don't let Makang Leaf King stop me!

The shrill voice kept screaming.

I'm going to kill that man!I'm going to kill Fujiwara Yoriki! !

She was choked by the thick smoke and coughed. The ghost knows why a dream is so real, and more importantly...

"If you don't want King Ma Cang Ye to stop you from taking revenge, then you can talk to him himself!!"

It was useless to find her.

Things like wraiths couldn't communicate, the surrounding fire was intensifying, and the temperature kept rising. She could hardly open her eyes. The world was engulfed by the blazing fire waves, which scalded people's throats with burning pain.

At that moment, a cold voice suddenly separated and confused:

"go out."

The moment the voice fell, the terrifying sea of ​​flames disappeared.

The smoke was wrapped in the fire, and she retreated from her eyes in an instant and disappeared. She woke up from her dream and found herself lying in the arms of King Ma Cangye. When it was scattered, the expression on his face appeared cold and sharp for a moment, like a steel knife drawn by a samurai, so cold that there was no warmth at all.

The two looked at each other for a while, and the expression in his eyes gradually softened.

"never mind."

Look, professional paddling is different from amateur paddling. After seeing clearly that the other party was still wearing hunting clothes, she immediately felt ashamed.

Why didn't she expect that something might happen tonight, and she still slept so soundly. Fortunately, the fire just now was just a nightmare, otherwise it would have to be...

That's worth it.

The fire in the dream disappeared, but the sea of ​​fire in reality is still burning.

The doomsday scene was very familiar, if she remembered correctly, it was almost exactly the same as the weird fire that had appeared in the palace.

Before she had time to change into her hunting clothes, she was about to run outside in a hurry. King Ma Cang Ye brought her back, raised his hand and put a coat on her shoulders, and said to her in a steady tone as if he didn't see the raging fire around her. :

"Go to the courtyard."

The people in the mansion, regardless of their status, men, women, old or young, all gathered in the courtyard to seek refuge.

Ma Cang Ye Wang made a seal casually, and the nearby air fluctuated like water, turning into a huge enchantment that was slightly transparent like moonlight and surrounded the crowd.

"No matter what happens, don't go out." He ordered quietly.

A'Du saw the figure of Yoshiki Fujiwara in the crowd, the other person's face was extremely pale, his teeth chattered slightly uncontrollably, for a moment people couldn't tell whether he was shivering from the cold or from the unbearable heat.

The scorched black flames swept over the mansion, and the hot and burning flames were like the tail feathers of birds, falling from the night of thick smoke.

The strange bird-like shadow hovered over the mansion, and suddenly let out a scream that could almost tear human eardrums, and rushed towards the barrier frantically.

boom--!

There was a loud noise that shook the ground, and the expanding fire covered the night sky.

People inside the barrier couldn't see the scenery outside. Black smoke was swimming around the surface of the barrier like a poisonous snake, and the angry flames kept hitting the barrier. If it was a living thing, it would already be bloody.

The shrill scream tore people's nerves, and no one could clearly hear what the monster was screaming, except for the bloated figure with a face like gold paper.

The deafening impact sounded continuously, and the flowing fire exploded and gathered again. Many people had already fallen to the ground, trembling, closing their eyes and reciting the names of gods and Buddhas.

"The barrier can't last anymore!" Someone shouted indiscriminately, Fujiwara Yoriki finally couldn't bear it anymore, he stood up staggeringly, and ran out from behind the barrier frantically.

King Ma Cang Ye did not sigh.

He seemed to have expected that things would develop like this, and continued to stand in front of the barrier. When Fujiwara Yoriki ran out, he didn't look back.

The wraith who was burned to death soared into the sky, turned around and chased in the direction where Fujiwara Yoriki was escaping.

The fire is like a poisonous snake, with its mouth full of fangs, quickly passing through the long corridors, and the Qionglou Yuyu, which was built with a lot of money, rushed towards the small figure on the ground with an almost crazy attitude.

With a heavy muffled sound, the flames flew and scattered, and at the last moment, she dangerously pressed the scorched fire to the ground.

……let me go! ! !

The shrill sound made her brain buzz and her blood surged, the raging flame opened its fangs, twisting and struggling madly in her hands.

The severe pain from being burned by the fire ran up her arms, and big beads of sweat rolled down. She pressed the scorched wraith tightly, and the short seconds stretched infinitely, becoming as long as a century.

Damn Einstein, she gritted her teeth, damn time relativity.

But if the wraith kills a living person, they will be chased and killed by the onmyoji.

"Please, think of your daughter!"

Witnessing her mother being burned to death with her own eyes, she has suffered severe psychological trauma. If she watches the tragedy happen again now, she may never recover in her life.

She thinks that Fujiwara Yoshiki is an out-and-out scum, the kind who deserves to die, but Mihime is different, she is still so young, and her heart can no longer bear heavy trauma.

"please!"

The wraith, in a rage, turned a deaf ear to her pleas.

Fujiwara Yoriki——! ! !

The voice let out a fierce roar that wept blood.

Where is Yoshiki Fujiwara—? ! !

The scorched fire bit her arm, rolling and struggling like a desperate beast.

The force was so great that it made her mouth numb, her fingers stiff, and the bloody smell of rust rushed into her throat unexpectedly, she closed her eyes tightly——

"...My lord."

The wraith struggling frantically in her hands seemed to stop for a moment.

The sound of the burning sea of ​​fire receded behind her, and the world fell into a strange silence at that moment. She raised her head and found Mi Ji An standing quietly not far away, and for the first time there were emotional fluctuations in those empty eyes. There are almost gentle ripples.

"Mother."

Not a hallucination this time.

The child who didn't want to speak slowly raised his hand and quietly pointed in the direction of the sea of ​​fire: "Father is over there."

"..."

The moment he let go, the scorched black spirit suddenly jumped up, like a violent hurricane, and rushed towards the direction Mi Ji pointed.

The child turned his head and met her eyes across the burning fire and flying smoke.

After a moment of silence, Miki lowered her head, as if expressing her silent thanks, and quietly bowed to her.

Then, as if she had never been here before, Miki took a step, and slowly, with a calmness beyond her age, walked back towards the courtyard.

When did the sea of ​​fire get smaller, she didn't notice.

When Ma Cang Ye Wang came to her side, she didn't notice it either.

"Why did you let go at the end?"

Looking at the night sky tonight, she thought of many reasons for a while, but despite all the high-sounding excuses, there was only one real reason in her heart.

"Because I wanted to do it, so I did."

"If the resentful spirit kills someone, it will fall into the endless hell." Ma Cangye Wang said gently, "Don't you want to save her? I thought it was for this reason that you rushed out to prevent her from taking revenge."

She turned her head.

The expression on Ma Cang Ye Wang's face did not show any scrutiny, as if he just wanted to know the answer to this question, so he asked this question.

She obviously worked hard to raise her face and looked at the night sky for so long.

"because……"

She resisted the trembling in her voice, and replied calmly:

"Because she was already in hell when she was alive."
