"Idiot, I can't go to the underworld for a long time. There is a soul in my heart that lingers in the world, and I can't find a way to reincarnate." Xiaobai smiled, "Where are I going... I don't know, but the world is so big, I haven't played them all yet, there are so many things to do!"
"Wait, don't go yet." I suddenly stood up from the bed, "I have one more thing I want to do for you."
"Ah? What's the matter—hey, why did you run away, where are you going!"
There is still a wound on the chest, although it has begun to heal, but it is still aching in the process of running. But now I don't care about so much, I only think about one thing, that is, to do my best to do one last thing for her before Xiaobai leaves.
"Wen Jiubai!"
Wen Jiubai was taken aback by me suddenly breaking into the old house, and almost spilled the tea in his hand.
Wen Jiubai frowned and looked at me, "Gu Yu? Didn't you say you were tired and wanted to go back to the dormitory? Why did you suddenly—"
I didn't let Wen Jiubai finish his sentence, so I walked up to him in three steps at a time, and hugged him tightly.
Thinking about it afterwards, Wen Jiubai's expression at that time was really funny, as if he didn't react at all, he looked at me in a daze, and held the teacup high in his hand so as not to spill it.
"Please, Mr. Wen." I said softly, using a title that only Xiaobai would use, "Can you give me a kiss?"
Wen Jiubai looked at me in disbelief, and then his eyes fell into my firm expression. As if he had discovered something, Wen Jiubai's expression softened again.
"It's rare." He said with the corner of his mouth raised, "Okay."
Then, in the afterglow of the setting sun, Wen Jiubai bent down and pressed a kiss gently on my forehead.
Although I understand that maybe I did this just to cover it up, just hoping to make up for the guilt I felt towards Xiaobai in my heart.
But I sincerely hope in my heart that what I can do with my meager strength, before Xiaobai leaves, I can take away a sliver of good memories for her.
At this moment, my body suddenly lightened, and my steps staggered, almost failing to stand still. Suddenly a familiar voice came from my ear, a very nice female voice.
"Thank you."
Hinabai finally left in the evening with red burning clouds in the sky. When she left, I raised my eyes and saw her real appearance.
She has a delicate melon-seeded face, long black hair, and is wearing a costume unique to women from the Ming Dynasty. Her big eyes are very clear.
And she looked like she was only sixteen or seventeen years old.
That was a really, really beautiful woman.
—————————
"So—" Wen Jiubai deliberately dragged his voice for a long time, and put the cup in his hand on the table.
I glanced at him anxiously, and waited for a long time before Wen Jiubai answered.
"During this week, you have been possessed by a female ghost named Chubai, and she is also a female ghost who has had a crush on me for more than fifty years?"
I lowered my head in embarrassment and nodded.
"Besides, for this female ghost, you still hesitate to ask me for a kiss?" Wen Jiubai raised the corners of his lips playfully.
"What is asking for a kiss? It's not for me!" I retorted angrily.
"Oh, I didn't mean to blame you." Wen Jiubai said with a smile, "I just think that you are really a very kind person."
"Yes, yes, Gu Xiaoyu is indeed a very kind child." Bai who was beside him also nodded in a serious manner.
"I won't be happy if you give me a card at this time." I rolled my eyes and said.
"No, to be honest." Wen Jiubai looked at me with a smile, "I really don't remember anything about that female ghost. But you are able to show such concern for her when we met by chance. You are really a very Good people."
I was a little embarrassed by the praise, so I quickly turned my eyes away from Wen Jiubai. But it was at this time that I noticed that there seemed to be some changes in the furnishings in the room.
"Wen Jiubai, where did that fish tank go?" I asked strangely.
"Ah, you mean the goldfish that the cat boss gave me?"
I nodded.
"Shortly before you came, died."
"Dead? How could it be?" I was taken aback. "Didn't you still be alive when you saw it yesterday?"
It was hard to think that the goldfish had brought some vitality to Wen Jiubai's lifeless room, but he didn't expect to die so soon.
"It's something that can't be helped." Wen Jiubai smiled helplessly, "The goldfish that Boss Cat gave me is not an ordinary goldfish. It's a fish that lives in the Santu River where Yin and Yang intersect, and it's very rare. Although he expresses his intentions in this way, I can understand, but this fish is destined to not be able to live in the Yang Realm for too long. Even if I have provided it with pure water from the deep well in the yard, it still cannot withstand the environment here."
"Really... so that's the case." I murmured.
It turns out that that fish did not belong to the same world as us from the very beginning.
This end of the water and the other end of the water are completely different worlds, even the things that the eyes see are different.
They are at different heights and see different worlds. It is impossible for the two to be fettered.
"Wen Jiubai." For some reason, I asked suddenly, "You and I... belong to the same world?"
Wen Jiubai looked at me quietly, not surprised that I asked such a question, "Probably, not really."
I was stunned, completely stunned, and looked at him as if asking for help.
Are we beings in different worlds
Yeah, of course.
He is Wen Jiubai, his identity is unknown, his age is a mystery, and he is a powerful exorcist who has lived for hundreds of thousands of years.
and I? Just a cowardly ordinary student kicked out by his family. If Wen Jiubai is willing, it will probably not be a problem to find hundreds of assistants like me, but now I can't leave the world brought by Wen Jiubai...
"But, Gu Yu." Just when I was in a daze, Wen Jiubai suddenly moved his face closer and said in a low voice, "If it's for you, I'm willing to abandon my original world and go to where you are."
With a "swish", my cheeks flushed without warning, and I pushed him away, "What are you talking about! I'm going to call the police, sexual harassment!"
"Wrong, how can you call it sexual harassment, every word I say is sincere."
"Shame on me!"
"Hey, you two, don't start flirting when you have nothing to do, okay, take care of me, a single ferret, a little bit!"
that's all. The story of Chubai and the attack of Gu Diao came to an end, no matter in terms of body or psychology, I breathed a long sigh of relief. At the same time, however, another plan was taking shape in my mind.
Yes, who exactly is Wen Jiubai, I have to find out.
