The Exorcist

When Xiaoxia's whole body froze and the back of the young woman appeared in her mind, she knew that she had returned to that illusion again. She didn't understand what made her enter this fantasy repeatedly. Was it the woman who wanted to say something to her?

I think her name is Abai.

At this time, Abai was sitting on a bamboo bed, embroidering something stitch by stitch. Judging from the environment she was in, she should be in a room on the third floor of the octagonal building.

There was no sunlight or moonlight in the illusion, only dim light and shadow. In this dimness, Xiaoxia seemed to be connected with her soul, and deeply felt her state of mind - happiness, longing, but also a little sadness and Sad.

Why are there such complicated emotions? Xiaoxia couldn't understand when she saw a man walking in. It was Anan who took the initiative to take Abai's 'love medicine'.

"Are you embroidering a wedding dress?" Anan asked, a gentle look appearing on his face that was not young but extremely handsome.

"Yes." Abai raised his head and answered with a smile.

This is the first time Xiaoxia has clearly seen Abai's face from the front among the three hallucinations she has experienced. This glance completely overturned Xiaoxia's previous concepts. She once believed that there is no unparalleled beauty in this world, and even film and television stars who are loved by thousands of people are just created by makeup artists and stylists, plus lighting and angles. But the moment she saw Abai, she understood what true beauty meant.

Any words to describe a beautiful woman would seem vulgar when applied to her. Her eyes are like autumn water containing smoke, which makes her whole face so pure that there is no trace of fireworks. She is gentle and sweet. Without any modification, she is already so beautiful as a woman. Xiaoxia also likes it.

"How's the embroidery going?" Anan sat next to Abai, pulled out a corner of the dress and looked at it.

"It's not good yet. In fact, we are not a secular couple. As long as you truly love me, that's enough for me. But - I really want to be a real bride and wear a wedding dress. If you don't like it -"

"I like it very much." Anan interrupted her, "I know I'm just your ghost husband and can't see the light of day, but I also want to marry you like a real man, unless you dislike me."

"No, no, I'm afraid of you -" Abai explained anxiously, "You know, I am a witch. I cannot marry a man in the world. If I insist on marrying, I can only marry a 'medicine ghost' of."

"So, you just chose me because you didn't have a choice, right?"

"No. I originally made up my mind not to get married to prevent the 'drug ghost' from harming others, but you showed up. You know that I really love you. It's just-"

"It's just, you always half-speak."

"It's just that I can't have children. You should know that my ability is given by heaven, so I can't have children."

"What's the point?" Anan saw that Abai was about to burst into tears, and softened her voice again, "And I am a ghost after all. Although you used witchcraft to give me a body, I can't have offspring. Isn’t this great? Besides, haven’t you recently seen two children with God-given abilities? If you accept them as disciples, aren’t they the same as your own children? Just like your master treats you.”

"Yes." When talking about accepting a disciple, Abai's face showed excitement. "It's hard to find people with God-given abilities. I didn't expect that I would meet two at once. That little girl's abilities are not good enough." I’m sure, but that boy definitely has great power given by God, but I just don’t know if his parents will let him go.”

"His family has always been ostracized by the clan. Now that his only son has been spotted by a famous shaman, he should be very excited. But let's not talk about this. I want to talk about officially marrying you."

Abai smiled, but Xiaoxia still felt that kind of emotion mixed with happiness and sadness. She didn't understand how a bride-to-be could have that kind of mood. Shouldn't it be full of sweetness?

"I embroidered your name under the pattern." She took out the beautiful wedding dress like a treasure and pointed to the chest, where a beautiful camellia was embroidered.

Xiaoxia didn't know that embroidery could be divided into two layers, and it probably required extremely high skills to do it. She just felt that the wedding dress in front of her looked familiar. When she took a closer look, she suddenly recognized that it was the one she was wearing.

"I also used a little witchcraft when doing the embroidery." Abai continued, "In this way, no matter how many years go by, this wedding dress will still be the same as new, unless I give up. This fits your sentence perfectly. "

"I will always be with you, life or death!" Anan repeated vowedly.

It turns out that mysterious witchcraft was used in the making of that wedding dress. No wonder it was still as good as new after so long. No wonder she had hallucinations when she put it on! What does Abai want to tell the descendants who wear this wedding dress?

The wedding dress is still new, which means that Abai has no intention of giving up. What is she expecting?

Moreover, why did Huang Boheng have to wear this dress to hold his wedding?

"Xiaoxia!" A man's voice suddenly came, which suddenly broke up the illusion and Xiaoxia's thoughts, and made Xiaoxia suddenly return to reality.

When he turned around, he saw Jizhan's concerned face.

"Can I move?" Although she was no longer in the hallucination, the sadness and sadness that Abai conveyed to her was still there.

"You can't move just because your soul has just returned to the body and you are not used to it for a while." Jizhan smiled and pulled her up.

Xiaoxia took the opportunity to hold his hand, but felt his arm tighten instantly. Looking down, I saw that his palms were shockingly

There was a deep and long wound, which shocked her so much that she let go immediately.

"The skin injury was caused when removing the poison." Jizhan covered it up and tried to retract his hand, but Xiao Xia grabbed the wrist of the injured hand.

"This needs to be bandaged!" Xiaoxia felt so distressed that her stomach was churning. She gently touched the edge of the wound with her index finger and blew cool air on the wound with her mouth. "It must be very painful, isn't it?"

Seeing Xiao Xia's lowered head almost buried in his chest, seeing how concerned she was about his injury, Jizhan seemed to hear the sound of his heart, which he had tried so hard to re-freeze and pretend to be, melting again. No one has ever cared about him so much, no one has ever felt so sympathetic to his pain, and no one has ever felt so sorry for him. He seems to have been alone since he was born, and has never enjoyed any tenderness, nor has he experienced several unsuccessful relationships. in this way. Only Xiaoxia treated him like this, treating him as a person who could also be hurt. How could he let her go?

Even if he really died in this incident, or he couldn't survive the "three difficulties", he couldn't let his soul leave. He would always protect her until another man could replace him.

He reached out and touched her hair. Seeing her looking up at him in confusion, he quickly said, "You should see that unscrupulous psychiatrist. The cuts on his feet will take at least several days before he can walk."

"Doctor? What doctor?" Xiaoxia didn't react for a moment. She was stunned for a moment before she understood what Jizhan meant. A surprised and happy smile immediately broke out on her face, "Is Wanli okay? Have you healed Wanli? ?Very good!"

She jumped up in confusion, hugged Jizhan's neck, hung on him, and pecked his face lightly, without even realizing what she had done, "I knew you would do it, you If I said I wouldn't let him die, nothing would happen!"

Wan Li's danger has always been a big stone weighing on her heart, so heavy that she can't even breathe smoothly. She truly understands what it means to live like a year. She hopes that this torture will pass quickly, but on the other hand, she hopes that time will stop so that Wan Li can survive. Opportunity. Now, all these conflicts have finally ended because of Jizhan's efforts, which makes her feel that the whole sky is bright, even though it has just reached midnight.

"Want to see him?"

"Of course, but you also need to take care of the wound on your hand. The medical kit we brought is also upstairs! Hurry, hurry, hurry!"

Xiaoxia urged, and when they went upstairs, they saw Wanli sitting there holding his head, as if he was in pain.

"What's wrong with you?" Xiaoxia asked, her face turned pale, fearing another accident.

Wan Li raised his head, smiled and stretched out his hands, "Let's give it a hug first. After all, I went to hell once." He didn't want to send bad information to Xiao Xia, so he returned to his usual jokey self.

"Are you sure you're fine?" Xiaoxia was worried.

"I'm very sure. I was just recalling something, but I can't remember it anymore and I have a headache." Wan Li said and glanced at Ruan Zhan.

"That Gu is very domineering. It controls all activities of your body. It is normal to have temporary memory impairment. It doesn't matter. It will recover slowly." Ruan Zhan said.

Wan Li said nothing. In his heart, he knew that the lost memory was extremely important and could not wait to recover slowly, but he really didn't want to come. Or if there is something relevant that stimulates it, it will come to mind, but what can stimulate this part of his closed memory?

"If what you want to remember is related to what we experienced, then we can discuss the details. This may stimulate your memory. You won't be able to think about it like this." Although Ruan Zhan saw Wanli smiling, But he frowned tightly and suggested.

"Good idea!" Wan Li stood up, but the stinging pain from the soles of his feet made him sit down again.

"You'd better obey the order and follow the command!" Xiaoxia said, taking out the medical bag under the pillow.

She was busy sorting out the wounds of the two men first, and then the three of them discussed the whole thing in Ruan Zhan's good barrier - the tiny details they each learned, their doubts about everything, and their own thoughts. , including Xiaoxia's three sudden hallucinations.

"Speaking of this, I remembered something!" Xiaoxia stood up, "Turn your heads, I want to change clothes first."

"Why are you changing? You look beautiful in this!" Wan Li grabbed her, "You're quite delicate, and you don't look so barbaric."

"You don't understand." Xiao Xia rolled her eyes at Wan Li, "Didn't I just say it? A Bai in the hallucination said that she had embroidered the name of the man named Anan on her chest. I want to take apart the embroidery on it. Take a look at this camellia.”

"Isn't it called Anan? Why are you so interested?" Wan Li asked.

"I want to see the full name." Xiao Xia said, "I always feel that this man is the key to the whole thing. That weird woman Awu is just a witness. This Anan may be the person involved. Also, I want to make sure that this case Is the wedding dress the one A Bai embroidered? What if I saw it wrong?"

"That makes sense, turn around." Ruan Zhan said briefly, then turned around with Wan Li and asked Xiaoxia to change her clothes, and then waited for her to slowly remove the beautiful flower on her skirt.

"Look." Xiaoxia held up the dress.

Under the candlelight, on the chest of the wedding dress, hidden under the flowers are three characters, the Chinese character - Sima Nan.

It turns out that the man's full name is Sima Nan, and this also confirms that the wedding dress Xiao Xia wore is indeed the one that belonged to A Bai back then. But what does this have to do with what they encountered and the secrets in this mountain forest? What about the connection?
