ghost city

Chapter 5

Young Master Ling slowly withdrew his hand that was between the girl's eyebrows, the trembling all over his body was still difficult to calm down.

His mind was blank, and he didn't even know what to do next.

This is the answer he wants?This nightmare that haunted him for three years and made him toss and turn every night, unable to sleep, finally came to fruition today?Or is this just the beginning of another nightmare?

The girl fainted on the ground, and hadn't woken up yet.The imprint between the eyebrows has faded.After hesitating for a moment, the man stretched his hand under her waist, ready to hug her.

As if struck by lightning, the man's body suddenly froze in place.

His hand passed through the girl's body without hindrance!

It was pitch black all around, and no one saw the cracked expression on his face bit by bit.

After all, I still can't go back.

He leaned against the wall quietly for a moment, suddenly remembered something, waved his hand casually,

The room was shrouded in bright pearl light again.

The outline of the girl gradually became clearer, from blurred to real.Young Master Ling stretched out his hand again, he was relieved, this time he could feel the real touch of the palm of his hand.

Maybe there is still room for maneuver.

*************************

The pain in her head almost exploded, but the nightmare continued, and the cruelest memories of the past were still waiting for her.

The girl huddled in the warm quilt, clutched the quilt tightly with her hands, her lips were pressed together tightly, almost bleeding.

The past is still lingering in my mind.

That year, she was 13 years old.

That day, she was disheveled and covered in blood, and followed Sima Shang back to the Red Thorn Court in a daze.

The fighting outside the city stopped for a while, and Sima Shang also stayed in the city for a long time.

In the first few days, she was in a trance, as if she had forgotten who she was and where she was.The past experience is like a dream, but the reality is cruel and cold.The happy days in Yanmen are long gone.

From the age of eight to the present, this period of youthful years, which should have been the happiest, is full of pain and death!Displacement and death are entangled endlessly.She lost her father first, then her mother, her homeland, and her peaceful life!Before her beautiful and bright life started, she was reduced to ashes in the flames of war!

Why did she have to bear all this! ?Is this just a grand sacrifice for Yingzheng to go to the throne! ?Just for his dream of ruling the world alone, and for Qin's ambition to rule Kyushu, he must sacrifice all the people in the world! ?She is unwilling!She knew that there were many unfortunate people like her in this land.All living beings are powerless to resist, and are helplessly drawn into the torrent of the times. Everyone has someone's misfortune.But why are they willing to suffer the wanton slaughter of fate! ?She is unwilling!She is unwilling!

What is she now?No family and no relatives, do you want to linger in this cold and dead ghost town for the rest of your life?She is not reconciled!

After a few days of fatigue and mental torture, she finally fell ill.When lying on the sickbed and barely opened her eyes, what she saw was her uncle's tired face.At this moment, the face of this heroic and strong man was haggard like never before.His big cold hand held her little hand tightly, but the palm of his hand conveyed a warmth that made her feel at ease.At that moment, her heart suddenly trembled.

Yes, she only cared about sinking in her own emotions, and never considered her uncle's mood.

This general, who spent his whole life in the army, tried his best to defend the country, but in the end he was notoriously rebellious.During these turbulent years, he lost the brother he admired the most, the country to which his heart and soul were attached, and his life and freedom.He made a great sacrifice just to save his brother's wife and daughter, but it was still a step too late.He has nothing left to lose, but what does fate leave him?

Uncle touched her head and forced a smile, but that smile seemed more sad than crying: "You'er, I know you are sad. You shouldn't have to bear all this. But fate pushed us here , we have no way out. Since Tyranny has taken everything from us, why don’t you cherish your remaining life? You have to live, live well! You have to live to witness the demise of Qin! Believe me, you will One day! You can wait!"

She never forgot this solemn promise for a moment, and she would always think of this sentence whenever she encountered rough and narrow situations.

She didn't answer, she silently put her other hand on her uncle's big hand and held it tightly.

Raising her eyes inadvertently, there was a white figure standing by the door, it was the man who forced her to run away that day.The man exuding a cold air just looked at her coldly, no emotion could be seen on his thin ice-like face, and his deep blue eyes seemed to hold all the past in his heart.He walked into the room quietly, put a package on the desk, and left.

It was only later that she found out that the man was Young Master Ling, a foreign general of Youwang City.It is said that he was a martyred prince.She also has no intention to find out about his past. In this era, everyone has a sad and sad past, and no one is in the mood to sympathize with others.

Living in seclusion in Youwang City, her uncle never allowed her to step out of the Red Thorn Courtyard.Not only because of the rules of not keeping strangers in Youwang City, but also because the inner mansion of Youwang City is her enemy - Guo Kai! She also learned that Guo Kai's confidant before his death - Han Cang, is Guo Kai at this time. Open the deputy.

It's disgusting!These two thieves are still working together.What is even more contemptible is Han Cang, who has nothing but a skin, but has always crawled at Guo Kai's feet during his lifetime and after death, willing to be his concubine (cough, Han Cang is a man, the ancients are very advanced, and he is determined).

She knew that if she was careless for a moment and was found out, not only would she lose her life, but her uncle and son Ling would also be implicated.

Youwang City is constantly fighting, and Young Master Ling and his uncle are always restless.The territory of Chu is vast, and there are more than millions of ghost troops wandering around after the war.Juyang, Yanling, Shouchun, Wancheng... They fought everywhere and subdued the ghost army everywhere.The battle between ghosts and ghosts is even more thrilling, and once you lose miserably, your soul will be scattered.Every war is won extremely hard.

Uncle said that Young Master Ling has aspirations and is determined to restore the country. He is full of talent and courage. He is determined to follow him and be his lieutenant general.As long as he still exists in the world, even if he has become a ghost, he will fight against Tyranny to the end.

She almost forgot that during this period of time in Youwang City, Qin State had already wiped out Qi Chu and wiped out the whole world.Now, the whole world belongs to Qin.

Her uncle has made up his mind, so what choice should she make?What can she do?

When the war is at rest, my uncle will come to take time to accompany her.She couldn't appreciate the outside world, so my uncle told her little by little.She gradually learned that although the world is unified, the common people still cannot live in peace.The Qin Empire didn't know how to recuperate, and was still making great achievements, exhausting the people's strength, blindly extorting money, blindly punishing harsh laws, and burdening the people with heavy taxes and labor. (The derogation of the Qin Dynasty here is a bit exaggerated, there is no way, the plot needs it)

It seems that although there is no freedom in Youwang City, this Netherland is much more peaceful than outside.However, can this peaceful life be enjoyed forever?

Sometimes, when his uncle came back, Young Master Ling would come to have a look.When she and her uncle were chatting with each other with laughter, that cold man just watched silently from the side, never saying a word.His plain face, which was like a sculpture of ice and snow, always carried a sinister chill that repulsed people thousands of miles away, not to be approached, let alone touched.She never dared to look at him for too long.

After a long time, she gradually learned that although Young Master Ling is indifferent and arrogant, he has a noble heart and is quite prestigious.He has always loved the soldiers, and lived and died with the soldiers; he governed the army strictly and did not offend the common people.Liao Qiang's city guards liked to eat strangers when they went into battle, but in Young Master Ling's army, they never allowed it.He only allowed the soldiers to feed on livestock, birds and animals, and when they were really in trouble, he would spend all his family resources to comfort the soldiers.

What kind of past is young master Ling carrying?She couldn't help but wonder.She even looked forward to seeing him, but every time she saw those cold and sharp blue eyes, she hurriedly avoided them.

Every time my uncle told her about the war, she would listen intently, and sometimes couldn't help but criticize.When she nervously expressed her immature thoughts, my uncle always smiled approvingly.There will be sincere satisfaction in her heart, and it turns out that she is not useless.Once she even saw a slight appreciative expression on Young Master Ling's face, but it passed in a flash.

Uncle has been fighting bloody battles outside all year round, but he is spending his days peacefully in Youwang City. Is it true that he really wants to stay here for the rest of his life?The family feud is not bloody, and the country's hatred is still there. Although she is a woman, she has a bit of Zhao Ren's blood in the end.How could she live her whole life in such a muddle?But what can she do as a woman?
