The soul is light and fluttering, with nowhere to go.
Su Jinyu opened his eyes and looked at the milky white world in front of him, and thought bitterly: Is this the legendary underworld
Before he had time to wonder why there was not a single ghost in the underworld, nor did he see the black and white impermanence of the legend, Su Jinyu saw a road appear under his feet.
The clean bluestone road stretched all the way to the distance, and finally disappeared into the depths of the thick fog.
Su Jinyu tried to move his body, and in the next second, his light and translucent body landed firmly on the ground.
The man raised his eyebrows, a little surprised that the soul body could still touch the real thing, but it was only for a moment. He raised his head and glanced at the bluestone road with no end in sight. After two seconds of silence, he lifted his foot and walked forward without any hesitation.
Maybe those myths and stories are wrong, the underworld does not have the other side of the Forgotten River and the Naihe Bridge, or maybe the one under his feet is the real Naihe Bridge.
But whether it's a mistake or true or not, Su Jinyu doesn't care anymore, he only has one thought to walk this path.
There was a voice in his heart that kept urging him: go on. As long as he walks down, he can see who he wants to see.
Su Jinyu quickened his pace little by little, and finally ran straight away. Everything around him seemed to be still, there was no sound, and the road under his feet seemed to have no end. Even though he was already dead, Su Jinyu could still feel the exhaustion emanating from the depths of his soul.
A pair of legs were so heavy that they could not be lifted up, but even so, Su Jinyu still did not stop, he gritted his teeth tightly, his jaw line was stretched like a string on a curved bow, the blue veins on his forehead jumped violently, a pair of His eyes stared at a certain point in the void for a moment, and he kept telling himself in his heart: It's still a little bit, Su Jinyu, it's just a little bit...
When he stepped on the empty body and fell infinitely, Su Jinyu watched the light in front of him rapidly shrink into a spot of light and then into a dot, and finally gave up the last struggle.
"don't want!!!"
The sound of music was deafening, and in the box where the demons were dancing, a voice full of panic and despair suddenly sounded, with a suffocating sadness in it.
Everyone in the box was frightened by this sound, and looked at the corner, where their protagonist was sitting.
In the quiet box, only the sound of music accompaniment and the lanterns swinging back and forth are left.
The red, green and green lights swayed and landed in the corner of the box, illuminating the man's face.
It is a face that is hard to forget once you see it. The facial features are exquisite but not feminine at all. Instead, it has a bit of the heroic spirit of an ancient literati general who abandoned his pen and joined the army. The innate nobility and arrogance that comes out of his bones make a man the most dazzling existence even if he is thrown into the crowd. Wherever he appeared, everyone else was overshadowed.
And now, it is this man, the man who can be on the hot search in City A the next day just by sneezing, but now he is sitting on the sofa in the corner of the box with a dull expression. The dilated pupils were full of panic and despair, and the colorful lights hit his face, illuminating the pale face as white as paper. With the expression at the moment, he looked like a ghost in a horror movie who was unwilling to die. .
The two girls sitting beside him were startled by him like this, their eyes blushed immediately when they came back to their senses, and they fell into each other's arms as softly as a rabbit without bones, choked their throats and said coquettishly: "Young Master Yu, what's the matter with you? You scared Pepe..."
"It scares An An too, Master Yu~~~"
The body seemed to be in disrepair all the year round and started as soon as it was lubricated. Su Jinyu turned his head stiffly, and clearly heard the sound of bones rubbing against each other.
He lowered his head, those bottomless black eyes fixedly looking at the person with the heavy makeup in his arms, and did not move for a long time.
The two girls were stared at by his innocent eyes, and their bodies suddenly shuddered, and an indescribable fear spread from the depths of their souls along their limbs. It seems that what is in front of him is no longer the rich young master who can spend a lot of money, but the devil who escaped from hell.
Others also noticed something was wrong here. One of them, a young man in a silver-white casual suit, saw that the situation was wrong, and immediately cut off the sound. With his eyes, he signaled the two people in Su Jinyu's arms to leave.
The two girls jumped out of Su Jinyu's arms as if they had received an amnesty order, and left the box as if they were fleeing for their lives, even forgetting to take the thick stack of red notes on the glass table.
In the dimly lit box, it was so quiet that the sound of a needle falling to the ground could be clearly heard. The few people present looked at me and I looked at you. They all saw doubts and curiosity in each other's eyes, and they also saw doubts and curiosity in each other's eyes. Well-disguised contempt.
In the end, it was the man in the suit who broke the strange silence. He took two steps forward to Su Jinyu's side, raised his hand and patted the other's shoulder.
Su Jinyu raised his head, his dark eyes like black holes looked at him quietly.
Man in suit: "… "
"Jin Yu, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell? Or... is it because of Gu Peilang? Didn't he agree to divorce you? Could it be that he regretted it again..."
The mouth in front of him with a slightly thick lower lip was still talking non-stop. Su Jinyu looked at the other person's face that made him very familiar, and only felt the pain in his brain, as if someone was holding a chisel Knock it in again and again. He tried hard to distinguish what the other party was saying, and the three words "Gu Peilang" landed directly in front of him like a red spear that had split thousands of troops.
"Gu... Pei... Lang?"
His voice was trembling, and the whole person was like three souls without seven souls.
The man in the suit frowned slowly and looked at him, the expression on his face turned serious.
"Jin Yu, what happened to you?"
When the other people in the box who were originally silent heard the man's words, they hurried forward, expressing their concern in a babble.
Su Jinyu's eyes slid across the faces that looked both true and false, and something flashed in his mind, so fast that he didn't have time to catch it.
Until the man in the suit called him again, Su Jinyu looked at the increasingly familiar face, and his brain hummed.
He remembered who was in front of him!
His high school and college classmate, Fang Mingzhi!
But didn't the other party go bankrupt and leave City A in the first year after he and Gu Peilang divorced? After Gu Peilang's death, he also met him in an unknown town. But why are men here now, and, so much younger? !
"Fang... Mingzhi?" Su Jinyu opened his mouth, his trembling voice squeezed out of his vocal cords.
Fang Mingzhi frowned tightly, his brows filled with worry, he asked, "Jin Yu, are you feeling unwell?"
Su Jinyu didn't answer his words, turned his stiff head, stared at him, and swept inch by inch where he was now, and the bunch of men and women dressed in strange clothes in front of him.
Blurred lights, a large LCD TV on the wall, a large and comfortable leather sofa, red and white wine on the glass table, dice and playing cards scattered all over the place...
Su Jinyu was very familiar with all the things in front of him. Before Gu Peilang died, when the Su family was still alive, he used this place as his second home.
But why am I here? Am I not already dead
The man blinked his eyes slowly and mechanically, lowered his head, and when he saw the pair of slender, strong, jade-white hands in the dim light, he was completely stunned as if struck by lightning.
It's not his hand! The torture of illness and the aging of his body left his hands with only crisscrossing ugly wrinkles and countless pinholes, which is not what it is now! But…
Su Jinyu moved his fingers stiffly, and his hands automatically clenched into fists according to his brain instructions. He held his breath, looked up at the person in front of him again, and began to have a bold guess in his heart.
"I... I feel a little uncomfortable, I want to go to the bathroom..." After saying these words tremblingly, Su Jinyu put his gaze behind him, and almost relied on his body's instinct to open the door of the box and walked out.
The delicate crystal lamps on the ceiling lit up on the cold marble floor, piercing the eyes so brightly, and hearing the howls of ghosts and wolves coming from the closed doors on both sides of the corridor.
Ignoring the surprised eyes of the waiters and those passing by in the corridor looking at him, Su Jinyu stumbled to the bathroom.
After slamming the door and locking it with a bang, he almost couldn't wait to come to the sink.
The oval-shaped half-length mirror with a delicately carved frame was wiped without a trace of dust, and in the clean mirror surface, a pale and bloodless, young, delicate but unfeminine face, full of shock, was reflected.
Su Jinyu stared blankly at the person in the mirror, his eyes wishing to pierce the mirror in front of him. In those bloodshot eyeballs, complex emotions surged up and down, like a beast trapped in an iron cage. Accidentally it will slip out.
The bathroom with a touch of incense was quiet, except for the rapid breathing of the man standing in front of the sink.
It seemed as if a century had passed, and Su Jinyu finally shook his hands and slowly touched the face that was full of collagen and without a trace of wrinkles.
His eyes turned red, the man gritted his teeth stubbornly and did not shed tears, until the phone in his pocket suddenly rang, he took out his phone tremblingly, and when he saw the date on it, he finally slumped to the ground, with no image. Sitting on the cold floor, holding the phone in his hand and crying.
Fang Mingzhi, who was restless, greeted the others in the box and chased out. He came to the door of the bathroom, and before he raised his hand to knock on the door, he heard the suppressed crying inside.
That kind of cry, Fang Mingzhi will never forget in his life. Just like a cub imprisoned in an iron cage, after experiencing the despair and pain of darkness, one day suddenly saw light and freedom. The ecstasy of the psychological collapse and the sudden death of the rest of his life, as well as the frightened grievance and helplessness, turned into a knife, deeply slashing Fang Mingzhi's heart.
"Jin Yu! Jin Yu, are you inside? Open the door, Jin Yu... It's my ambition... Can you open the door, Jin Yu... "
No matter how anxious Fang Mingzhi shouted outside, no one inside moved. Just when he turned around and decided to find the manager to unlock it, the door behind him suddenly opened.
Fang Mingzhi turned his head and was stunned when he saw the man in front of him with wrinkled clothes and swollen eyes.
"Jin Yu..." Fang Mingzhi, who had regained his senses, cautiously called out his name.
Su Jinyu raised his glasses and glanced at him. There were too many things in Fang Mingzhi's eyes that Fang Mingzhi couldn't understand. Before he opened his mouth to speak, Su Jinyu withdrew his eyes and strode over his shoulder and walked out.
Fang Mingzhi grabbed him: "Jin Yu, where are you going?"
Su Jinyu moved his mouth, and hoarsely spit out two words from his pale and cracked lips: "Go home."
Fang Mingzhi, who was frightened by the strange and treacherous aura emanating from him, let go of his hand subconsciously. Su Jinyu strode out without any hesitation, and his figure quickly disappeared at the corner of the wall.
Reaching out to stop a taxi, Su Jinyu sat up and reported the place name, then turned his head stiffly and looked out the car window with a blank expression.
The brightly lit shops and straight street lamps on the street quickly passed from the retina. Su Jinyu looked at this strange and familiar bustling city, and once again his eyes were red.
The phone in his hand was squeezed tightly by him, and the rounded edges cut his fingers painfully, but he did not relax a bit, holding the phone as if he had grabbed the last life-saving straw.
Yes, his lifesaver.
When my finger accidentally touched the fingerprint key, the screen of the mobile phone lit up immediately, and the current time was clearly written on the screen saver that came with the system.
Saturday, June 18, 2020, 21:35
Although it was too scary and bizarre, Su Jinyu had to believe that he was reborn. After dying on the operating table at the age of 80 due to ineffective lung cancer treatment, he was reborn and returned to the past, back to when he was 23 years old.
And June 18 was the day he threatened Gu Peilang with suicide and divorced him.
In the past, no matter how cynical and abused he was, he was indifferent and never mentioned the divorced man. When facing the fruit knife he put on his neck, he compromised.
After seeing Gu Peilang sign his name on the divorce agreement he had already signed, Su Jinyu, who was back to being single, couldn't wait to call his good friend to the bar to celebrate.
The box just now was taken down by him in order to celebrate that he had finally freed himself from the clutches of the perverted Gu Peilang.
At this time, Su Jinyu regretted not before, and only wished that he could strangle himself with the knife holder by the neck. At the same time, he was ecstatic because of his rebirth, and at the same time, he was worried and annoyed because he missed the time to sign. He even complained to God in his heart why he couldn't be a good person and send the Buddha to the west, even if he was reborn when Gu Peilang pulled the cap off.
