Fifty-fifth bowl of soup (seven)
Shan Yuji's twenty-eight years old:
"Master, these posts... Would you like to read them all?"
Shan Yuji looked indifferent: "Leave it alone."
The housekeeper was about to cry: "Young master, you can't go on like this, you, you are almost thirty... The young lady who wants to marry you is about to break through the threshold, even if you don't want to marry, just take a look, maybe Did you see the right one?"
Shan Yuji put down his pen and said, "I have my own plan."
The housekeeper almost burst into tears. Now he dreams of his wife every night... The wife said that he wants him to take good care of the young master, but he can take care of him. If the young master refuses to find a girl to marry, then, what should I do? Who is to blame for the lack of successors in Shan Yu's family? !
"Why don't you tell me what your plan is? If it works, I will discuss it with you. If it doesn't work, there are many beautiful and virtuous girls in the world. This old slave will help you. Find, anyway, anyway, you can't just forget about it!"
Shan Yuji was silent, the housekeeper thought about something, and hurriedly said: "Master, can this work? Anyway, these girls, if you meet them first, maybe you can meet someone you like? This is in Wait at home, there won’t be pies falling from the sky, will they?”
There is some truth to this statement. Shan Yuji squinted his eyes and considered for a while, then said: "It doesn't need to be so troublesome. In the future, if anyone wants to send a name card, you can ask them, Chi Jing."
be surprised? The housekeeper, Monk Zhang Er, was puzzled. What kind of question is this... Can someone really answer it? But when he looked up at the young master again, he had already continued to look at the account book, and the housekeeper didn't dare to say anything, so he quickly stepped back.
Since Shan Yuji asked this question, he has released another message, as long as he can give the correct answer, he will come to the door in person, regardless of whether the other party is a man or a woman, old or young, or a beggar begging along the street. Present the token of Shan Yu's family, marry him with all his wealth, and never accept concubines for life.
As soon as the news came out, those who wanted to marry into Shan Yu's family were overwhelmed. The housekeeper was responsible for registering the women who came to the door and the answers they gave every day, and then handed it over to the young master for review. But to his despair, no one has ever answered correctly! He also tried to find the correct answer by asking around, so that he could go through the back door or something. After all, some girls are so talented and beautiful that they wish that an old man like him could be decades younger! Is it really okay for the young master to refuse without even looking at him like this
It's a pity that Shan Yuji's face turned cold when he heard him mention the answer, and the housekeeper didn't dare to say more. Over the years, he has finally had room to speak in front of the young master by virtue of his loyalty, but in the end he is a slave, no matter how close he is to his master, he is still a slave.
But then again, is there really a right answer to this question? Seeing the girls answering all kinds of ideas, the housekeeper gradually gave up.
Shan Yuji's thirty-eight years old:
"...Master, this is the answer these days, please read it over."
Shan Yuji took the paper casually, browsed it and put it down. "Nothing is right, there is no need to contact me again."
The housekeeper looked blank: "Master, I remind you that you are already thirty-eight years old."
"So what?" Shan Yuji waved his hand to signal him to go down, "Go and see if the young master has done his homework."
Eight years ago, he adopted an orphan with good talents and qualities, and Shan Yuji raised him as his heir. If he leaves one day, there must be someone who can inherit Shan Yu's family, so as not to let the host's efforts be wasted.
The butler turned around dully, he no longer insisted, anyway now... he could be regarded as having a little master, and when he arrived in the underworld in the future, he should be able to explain to his wife.
Shan Yuji's forty-eight years old:
Eighteen-year-old Shan Yuche respectfully presented the horsewhip: "Father, take care all the way, and remember to report the safety of the child and the housekeeper grandpa."
"Don't worry." Shan Yuji was naturally anxious, since she didn't show up, he went to look for her. The world is so big, he will find her sooner or later. "Just remember, if someone can answer the question, they must send a letter to me immediately."
"yes."
Looking at Shan Yuche, who has grown into a teenager and can handle himself alone, he can't help but think of the first life, Ling'er wanted a child so much, but he couldn't give it.
Shan Yuji got on his horse, but he didn't know why Ling'er didn't show up. But even if Ling'er doesn't show up, his journey should come to an end here. Shan Yuji was destined to die, he shouldn't have lived long ago, but he lived to almost fifty years old, and when she didn't come, he went out to look for her, but... when will it be the end
Shan Yuji's fifty-eight years old:
Look for.
Shan Yuji's sixty-eight years old:
Look for.
Shan Yuji's seventy-eight years old:
Look for.
Shan Yuji's eighty-eight years old:
Shan Yuche died of illness, and he returned to Shan Yu's mansion. His grandson has grown up, smart and kind-hearted. After attending the funeral of his adopted son, Shan Yuji was about to continue his journey, but his grandson was worried: "Grandpa is getting old, why don't you stay at home and enjoy the rest of your life?"
Shan Yuji said, "Can someone answer the question?"
"No."
Shan Yuji took two steps, and suddenly fell headlong on the steps in front of the door. Everyone was terrified, and quickly carried him into the room. The doctor looked at him, shook his head and said: "The lamp is exhausted, and it is impossible to save him."
Shan Yuji knew that he would die sooner or later, but he didn't know why it was now.
He was in a dark place, with soft ground under his feet and blood-red Bana flowers on both sides. He walked forward along the flowers on the other side, the sound of the river gradually became clearer, and an ancient bridge with soul-calling flags flying at the bridge head appeared in front of him.
I don't know when the surroundings are lit up with a dim and quiet light, and the lantern shakes without wind. Shan Yuji saw the huge bluestone at the head of the bridge, and his life was written all over it.
His memory came back, but it wasn't what he wanted.
A white and tender little boy in ancient clothes appeared in front of him at some point, grabbed his fingers on tiptoe, and led him forward. Shan Yuji recognized that this was the boy who helped him in many worlds, and couldn't help asking: "Why didn't I find her?"
The little boy climbed up the chair with difficulty, sat down firmly, and asked him, "Who?"
"... Linger."
This seemingly innocent child has a sophistication and indifference in his eyes, which is completely different from his cute appearance. "She won't show up again."
Shan Yuji clenched his fists: "What do you mean?"
"It literally means that she violated the agreement between us. According to the law, she should be obliterated."
"What law—"
"You still don't understand?" The little boy stopped smiling, and the round bun had a coldness that Shan Yuji had never seen before. "You are eager for revenge. She couldn't let you go, so she made an agreement with me. Every world will follow you, but you must not show any signs unless you recognize her. In the fourth world, she took the initiative to reveal her identity. Is it hard to understand why you committed murder at the expense of yourself?"
"It's impossible." Shan Yuji didn't believe it at all. "We agreed that in the next life—"
"That's why she didn't show up." The little boy didn't see your stupid expression on his face, "She said that because she was afraid that you would give up after knowing it, and you have reached the last step, and you can return to your own world immediately If it falls short, then how can she feel at ease? But... In the last world, she did accompany you."
The little guy shrugged, "Every world has a spirit word in her name. In the last world, although she no longer exists, she still accompanies you in another way. When you die, you will be wiped out."
After finishing speaking, he grinned: "Do you remember that spiritual position that Shan Yuji cherishes so much?"
Hearing this, the male ghost knelt down on the ground as if dead. The little boy looked at him regretfully. "I'm sorry, Naihe Bridge has rules. I have no ability to give you privileges when the master is not here. The reason why you lived for decades in the last world is that you have completely lost control of your fourth world. punishment. Now, you can return to your world."
The male ghost suddenly raised his head: "No! There is still a way! Please, give her back to me!"
He touched his heart, where there used to be no heart, but felt a tearing pain. Only now does the male ghost know what it means to be in pain, and the pain in the Wangchuan River, how can it be as good as this? At this moment, there seemed to be countless hands tearing and hurting his heart and soul.
That girl will never come back.
"It's not the karma she should bear! It's me! She shouldn't disappear, please, let her come back, I can give you anything!" The male ghost seemed desperate. "This merit, this soul, whatever, I will give it to you! Give her back to me! Please!"
He kowtowed a few times, and the little boy climbed up on his hands and feet and stood on the chair, looking down at the male ghost. "Why don't you let go?"
The male ghost shook his head and remained silent.
The little boy said: "You have been tormented in the Wangchuan River for thousands of years, and you still cannot escape this fate. You have no destiny with that girl, why force it? She insists on following you, and you force her to be resurrected. You must know that everything is in vain. "
The male ghost didn't speak, but kept kowtow.
The little guy was so angry that he jumped up and down, and the coldness he tried to put on was finally broken: "Stop knocking! I'm not abusing you!"
Bang bang kowtowing sound can be heard endlessly.
He was a hero during his lifetime, but he was unyielding after his death, but he was willing to kneel and bow down for a girl, forgetting the millennium of torture, it seemed that all because of love, he gradually faded away.
When the male ghost raised his head again, the little boy gasped.
For the first time, he saw the tears of evil spirits after stripping off the human body.
After a while, he asked the male ghost, "Will you regret it?"
The male ghost answered firmly: "I will never regret it."
