Fengqi Nancheng

"Over the past few years, the Gu family has never given up on awakening the Wraith Spirit Body. But because the Wraith Spirit Body was so damaged after the battle that year, it even reached the point where it could not be repaired by itself. In order to prevent the Wraith Spirit Body from completely Dissipated, they had to store it in someone's body and reconcile it through the yin and yang breath inside the human body. But even so, the wraith body could not be completely recovered. In order to wake it up as soon as possible, the Gu family began to constantly To create death around this person, the resentment generated by the death will be absorbed by the resentful spirit body as nutrients, so as to speed up the awakening of the resentful spirit body——" Gui Qi glanced at Lin Heng: "I miss you these I already know that the successive murders around you seem to have nothing to do with you, but in fact, your existence is the root cause of these cases."

Lin Heng's body trembled unconsciously, he lowered his eyes and did not speak.

Gui Qi continued: "According to the information I found, vicious murders or disappearances have been happening around you since you were born, but for some reason, these things were quickly covered up after they happened. When it came down, few people could notice their happening. And you, as the center of the incident, did you always think that you were living in a very peaceful environment until the incident at your school happened?"

Lin Heng nodded stiffly.

"That's right. Before everything is fully prepared, those people will not let you realize what is happening around you prematurely. Your existence, for them, is not only the dawn of hope, but also a time bomb. If there is any deviation in the process of awakening, it may lead to changes in the awakened wraith body, and this change is what those people do not want to see. The wraith body in your body has not awakened to a certain extent Before, they could only choose to hide all this from you. And when you see these things happening around you, it means that the Wraith Body in your body is mature enough—"

Speaking of this, Gui Qi paused for a moment, and suddenly said: "You should have dreamed about something from the past, right?"

Lin Heng was startled, and nodded slowly: "Yes."

"In your dream, you should be able to see things that happened many years ago. It's not even what happened in this era at all, right?" Gui Qi murmured: "With the awakening of the Wraith Spirit Body, your memory will merge with the Wrath Spirit Body. You can see his past, and he can also read yours." Gui Qi turned her head and asked with interest: "By the way, what did you dream about?"

Lin Heng was silent.

When Gui Qi brought up this topic, an unavoidable fact was placed in front of Lin Heng again.

He realized once again that perhaps the dreams he had always thought represented his past and present lives had nothing to do with him at all.

After a long time, Lin Heng said hoarsely: "...I dreamed of a person exactly like me."

"The Gu family wanted to use that person to refine the resentful spirit body, but failed at the last moment, and that person died after that." After Lin Heng finished speaking dryly, Gui Qi suddenly said: "You saw that he died ?"

Lin Heng was startled: "No. But everyone in the Gu family said so at the time."

"That's right." Gui Qi said: "You thought he was dead, but in fact it is very likely that he has been successfully refined, but the Gu family didn't announce the news too quickly due to other concerns. , thus creating an illusion that makes others think that he is dead and the refining failed."

"No wonder they found me..." Lin Heng lowered his eyes and said softly, "It turns out that it's because I look the same as him."

She always thought that Pei Fengheng was herself, and therefore always felt that her relationship with Nan Yucheng was indestructible.But thinking about it now, maybe... In Nan Yucheng's eyes, what he has seen all this time is the person who has been suffering in the dungeon for several years, waiting for him desperately and crazily.

Lin Heng had always wondered why Nan Yucheng almost never called him by his name.After knowing each other for so long, when Nan Yucheng talked to him, he never seemed to add a title, even if he mentioned it occasionally, he simply brought it along.

Moreover, Nan Yucheng's avoidance of the past has always made Lin Heng brood.Originally thought that the other party had other difficulties that he couldn't say out loud, but now that he thought about it, maybe he just didn't want to break the balance in front of him.

After all... If he knew the truth like this, then the relationship between the two of them would not be able to continue.

Thinking of this, Lin Heng didn't feel any shock or sadness.In the past few days, all kinds of lies intertwined with truth and illusion have made him almost lose these intense emotions. Many things that seemed unimaginable before actually happened, but at the moment when they really happened, he felt that they were not so unbearable.

Come to think of it, that's all.

Lin Heng sighed, his voice was very soft, but Gui Qi, who was immersed in her thoughts, suddenly came back to her senses.

She suddenly said, "Do you know why I called you here?"

Lin Heng shook his head and nodded again.

After going through these conversations, he can basically guess Gui Qi's intentions.

Gui Qi also sighed: "To be honest, I still have a good impression of you as a person. The reason why I treated you like that in the hospital last time was because the joy of thinking I was going to succeed went to my head— —You know, it took me almost my whole life to kill you."

Lin Heng laughed at himself, and Gui Qi glanced at him, and laughed too: "I never thought that after going through all these things, we could still chat together properly. Life is really amazing."

She paused, and her voice lowered: "I called you here, but I didn't actually want to attack you. You should have seen this—my body is exhausted. In less than a week, I may die." It will disappear completely... In order to delay this month, I have bet everything on it."

"What do you want me to do?" Lin Heng asked.

Gui Qi didn't hesitate, and said directly: "I hope you can jump from here by yourself."

Gui Qi's words did not surprise Lin Heng. In fact, what she said was almost the same as what Lin Heng had guessed before.

In order to eliminate the Wraith Body, the Shentu family has spent countless generations of hard work and energy, and it seems that it has reached the final step. If the Wrath Body cannot be eliminated, and when it is fully mature and breaks out of Lin Heng's body, then generations will be able to kill the Wraith Body. Her hard work was completely in vain, so it was impossible for Gui Qi to give up.

And the reason why she said those words before is because Gui Qi's current strength can't compete with the wraith body, rashly attacking Lin Heng, may instead cause the wrath body in Lin Heng's body to wake up early, and the gain outweighs the loss.

Therefore, the best way is to let Lin Heng choose to die by himself - let him strangle the resentful spirit body in his body - so as to prevent future troubles forever.

I have to say that Gui Qi's approach is indeed very clever.Lin Heng has always been gentle and emotional, and it is easier for him to make up his mind with emotional rhetoric than naked threats.

Lin Heng didn't answer her immediately, but walked to the edge of the cliff, looking at the lake under his feet in thought.

For the past two days, Lin Heng has been in a dissociated state. The moment he knew many things, it certainly brought him a great impact, but the impact lasted very short.

Sometimes, Lin Heng can't even remember whether he has ever felt uncomfortable for these truths?

His emotions seemed to be subtly isolated by something, as if the pain and despair he could perceive in the past had turned into emotions that had nothing to do with him.

This kind of cognition made Lin Heng soberly realize that perhaps, the resentful spirit body lurking in the depths of his soul is really about to wake up.

The desperation and numbness that the Wraith Body can bring infected Lin Heng's own emotions. He began to feel like a walking corpse slowly. It hurts.

All that's left is exhaustion.

The overwhelming exhaustion seemed to be a heavy burden on Lin Heng's body all of a sudden.He wanted to sleep, to sleep all the time, as if in this way he could not face everything in front of him—this, he didn't know what kind of face he should use to face the world.

Therefore, when Gui Qi made this request, Lin Heng did not refute it.In fact, in his heart, he even thought it was a good decision.

He didn't answer Gui Qi, but his expression had conveyed some kind of message to Gui Qi.

He was silent for a long time before turning around and saying to Gui Qi: "Can I leave for a while, I want to make a call."

Gui Qi nodded.At this point, her persuasion is meaningless, all that should be said has been said, and the rest of the decision can only be made by Lin Heng himself.

After Gui Qi left, Lin Heng sat down slowly.

The two chatted here all night, and the sky has gradually begun to light up.Soon, the sun will rise and a new day will begin.

Lin Heng took out his cell phone and didn't make a call immediately, but first looked through the past text messages in the text message box.

On the contrary, the messages he had sent to Nan Yucheng, the content of the text messages were varied, and Nan Yucheng's reply was always very short.

"I bought prawns today, I'll come back early and make them for you."

"it is good."

"Just now I met actor Mu Yinghe in the company! He is even more handsome in real life than on TV!"

"I'll pick you up after get off work."

"……okay."

"The TV at home is broken. Where did you put the maintenance worker's contact number? Why can't I find it?"

"There is no phone bill, wait for me to come back and check."

"The water glass I put on the table just now moved again! Are you sure there is no kid in the house?! Why do I still feel chilly!"

"No."

"You're not lying to me! I'm moving out! I can't stand it!"

"I didn't lie to you, don't move."

"I had a nightmare, please comfort me!"

"Put me in your dreams next time."

"good idea!"

……

In fact, the two of them don't send text messages very often, but after a long time, the accumulated text messages have already filled Lin Heng's mailbox.

He slowly looked over one by one, and many memories were opened little by little with the content of the text messages.

He has always felt that he spends too little time with Nan Yucheng, so he cherishes every time the two of them are alone together. However, when Lin Heng recalled these text messages, he realized that the two of them had been together unconsciously. It's been such a long time together.

So long...he couldn't even recall all the details.

He sighed, exited the SMS interface, and dialed Nan Yucheng's number.

Nan Yucheng should have woken up at this time, his sleep has always been very short, because of the nature of his work, he doesn't have so much time to spend on sleep, often only four or five hours are enough to refresh his mind.

Sure enough, his call was quickly connected.

Nan Yucheng's voice carried a kind of laziness when he just woke up: "Where are you?"

He should have seen the note he left.When going out, in order to fear that Nan Yucheng would wake up and look for someone, Lin Heng wrote a few words on the note, saying that he went out for a walk, but he didn't expect that after walking, he had no intention of going back.

He didn't say a word, quietly listening to Nan Yucheng's breathing from the other end of the phone.

Nan Yucheng's breathing rate is very steady, just like how he feels to Lin Heng. In Lin Heng's heart, Nan Yucheng seems to be a mountain that will never fall. His perseverance and courage are Lin Heng's A quality that I think I can't learn in my life.

Nan Yucheng didn't speak either, and the silence spread.The sound of the wind blew past Lin Heng's cheeks and blew into the receiver, turning into a whimper, as if someone was hiding in the receiver and crying secretly.

After a long time, Nan Yucheng asked again: "Where are you?"

Lin Heng suddenly seemed to be awakened, and he murmured: "Yu Cheng."

"Ah."

"Do you... remember Pei Fengheng?"

When Lin Heng asked this sentence, his heart was very calm. He keenly felt that Nan Yucheng, who had always been calm, stopped breathing for a moment after this sentence.

"Remember, you mentioned it to me some time ago."

"When I was in my hometown, you once hugged me and called me the name 'Feng'. I didn't know who this Feng was until I had that dream..." Lin Heng paused, calm Said: "The person you never forget in your heart should be him."

"……Yes."

This was the first time that Nan Yucheng did not evade the question about Pei Fengheng, and frankly admitted his thoughts.

Lin Heng closed his eyes and took a deep breath: "It really is."

Nan Yucheng seemed to be aware of Lin Heng's abnormal mood, and hurriedly said: "I can explain this to you slowly after you come back. Where are you now? I'll pick you up—"

"No need." Lin Heng interrupted him, and said lightly: "Yu Cheng, no matter what happens, I don't regret knowing you."

After speaking, regardless of the other party's reaction, he cut off the phone.

He threw the phone to the ground and stood up slowly.

The sun had already risen, and the dazzling light made Lin Heng feel dizzy for a while.He stood on the edge of the cliff and looked at the lake below: under the early morning sunlight, the surface of the water glowed with a sapphire-like translucent luster, which made people dazzled.

Lin Heng took another step forward, half of his body was already hanging off the cliff, but he still couldn't take the last step.

He turned his head and looked at the mobile phone that was still on the ground.The phone was vibrating constantly, and Nan Yucheng's name was displayed on the incoming call screen. Lin Heng could imagine that the other party was waiting anxiously on the other end of the phone.

At that moment, overwhelming memories flooded towards him like a tide, and his heart suddenly softened.He turned his lower body, subconsciously wanting to approach the vibrating phone.However, at the moment when he turned around, Lin Heng, who was dizzy because he hadn't slept all night, was unsteady on his feet, and suddenly fell off the cliff!

At the moment of weightlessness, many thoughts flashed through Lin Heng's mind, and finally they all fell silent.

In fact, he already didn't want to die.But... maybe this is fate, no matter whether you resist or not, you will not be able to escape the doomed ending from the beginning.

He closed his eyes and let himself fall into the cold lake water.
