Strange Story of Strange House

Chapter 18 chapter 018

Repaying debts, killing people and paying their lives is justified, isn't it?

The girl lit the notebook, and the ignited fire illuminated her expressionless face.

"How is it possible?" Tang Xi subconsciously took a few steps back, holding onto the table with his hands to barely stabilize his precarious body, "How could it be that you didn't die...how did this happen!"

"Oh." Tang Xue sneered, stretched out her hand and threw the dagger in her chest on the ground casually, "Do you think this kind of broken dagger can kill me? Who gave you the confidence to kill ghosts?"

"He clearly said, why didn't you die!" Tang Xi's last hope fell along with the dagger, and after the hope was shattered, she began to yell at Tang Xue hysterically.The person who was shouted looked innocent: "You can't kill me, why are you asking me?"

Tang Xi bit his lower lip tightly, unwilling to reveal the sound of his teeth chattering.She knew that once she missed a hit, she should be the one who died.

Sure enough, Tang Xue walked towards her with a smile: "Well~ I thought about it, I have let you kill me twice, now, why should it be my turn?" Touch the wall, there is no way back.

"Xiaoxue, please let me go! I know I was wrong! I don't want to die!" Tang Xi pleaded against the wall.

Tang Xue ignored her pleading at all, walked in front of her in a leisurely manner, put her slender white hand on Tang Xi's chest, moved up her pajamas, and slid her cold fingers little by little until they stopped on her neck ... Tang Xue strangled her neck with one hand, and with a strength that was completely out of proportion to her figure, she strangled Tang Xi's neck and lifted her up.Tang Xi struggled frantically, trying to break her hand away, but as Tang Xue tightened her strength little by little, she gradually lost the ability to resist...

Just before Tang Xi died, Tang Xue let her go suddenly, she sat down slumped, and it took a while to recover, feeling the fear of death, the biting cold forced Tang Xi to hug herself tightly, the whole body People curled up in the corner.

Her mind went blank, and after a while, she belatedly remembered to escape.

It's a pity that she and Jiang Yu lived alone on the third floor, her eldest brother Tang Feng went out, and Tang's father had been sleeping soundly... Then she thought, even if they could hear her cry for help, they couldn't come to rescue her, right? After all, it was their Tang Xue who wanted to kill him.She, a fake, has finally come to an end.

Tang Xue didn't care what Tang Xi was thinking, she let go of Tang Xi simply because she suddenly remembered that she still had something to say.

"Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you. There is one more thing I want to thank you for. It is you who let me see a beautiful scenery that I have never seen in my life." As soon as Tang Xue finished speaking, Tang Xi immediately noticed that the room I don't know when, there are more blue butterflies.

Tang Xue squatted down and spread her hands in front of Tang Xi, and butterflies flew out from her palm: "You know? The moment I died, I saw butterflies, butterflies all over the sky. They were flying around me, like This is how it is now. You lied to me and said that you would take me to see fireflies, but that night, I saw a beautiful scenery that I will never forget." Tang Xue looked at the butterflies in the room with gentle eyes, as if they were deeply loved by her.

Tang Xi raised her head and looked at the butterflies in the room. They waved their bright blue wings and hovered on the ceiling, giving her the illusion of death. She heard Tang Xue's gentle voice, she said——

"In return for allowing me to meet them, I will give you the most splendid death."

With a wave of Tang Xue's hand, swarms of butterflies suddenly flocked towards Tang Xi. Corpse girls are butterflies belonging to hell after all, with a cruel and bloodthirsty side under their beautiful appearance. With Tang Xue's acquiescence, they opened towards Tang Xi fangs...

"Ah ah ah ah ah--"

Tang Xi felt severe pain the moment the butterfly rushed over.Butterfly opened her fangs and tore at her flesh and blood. She stretched out her hand to Tang Xue, hoping to get her help: "Help me, please..."

Tang Xue took a step back to avoid her hand, but she didn't look away—she wanted to see the pain she had suffered in the past 24 years end at this moment.

The last scene Tang Xi saw in this world was Tang Xue's half face with a smile—stimulated by her flesh and blood, the corpse girls that made up Tang Xue's body began to fly away from the side of Tang Xue's body, joining The ranks of flesh and blood...

The moment Tang Xi died, she turned her head to the direction of the bed—Jiang Yu was lying there—wanting to take another look at the man she had loved all her life, but unfortunately, her eyeballs had been eaten, and her Her vocal cords had been bitten off a long time ago, and she was unable to make any sound until she died.

Tang Xue watched coldly as she was devoured by the butterflies. Corpse Ji's ability to handle corpses should not be underestimated. When they returned to her body, there was no trace of Tang Xi in the room, and there were no real bones left.

Tang Xue had a cruel smile on her face: "Tang Xi, I lent you the identity 'Tang Xue' for 24 years, now, it's time to return it to me!"

Standing at the same spot for a few minutes thinking about the past, Tang Xue skillfully restored the room to its original state, and moved Jiang Yu back to his own room, while she sat in front of the dressing table and adjusted her face. Tang Xi was 24 times older than Tang Xuan. Years later, her face was not as immature as Tang Xue's when she died.

Fortunately, she is an undead, she has a body composed of corpses, and adjusting her face is a piece of cake for her.

If Tang Xi knew that the burial place she carefully selected for Tang Xue gave Tang Xue eternal life, I don't know if she would regret it too much.

Tang Xue's eyes touched the dagger that had been stabbed into her chest before, she smiled, she could feel the icy breath above, if she was just an undead, she would probably be killed by that simple knife.Unfortunately, this body is made of butterflies.

She took out a pajamas from the closet and changed into it, found the number with "Mr. Shen" in the phone's address book, and dialed it.

"Hi, hello? Is this Mr. Shen? I'm Tang Xue, we met at the banquet." The man on the other end of the phone whispered something, and Tang Xue replied with a smile, "Yes, my revenge is over .But I still have a small problem that has not been resolved, can you help me?"

After getting an affirmative answer from the man, Tang Xue hung up the phone contentedly.She thought about it, and then sent Lin Chi another text message: "Primary school brother, from today onwards, you can call me Tang Xue."

Afterwards, she pulled out the calling card and destroyed it, and the new mobile phone that Jiang Yu bought for her was put into Tang Xi's small box, and then stuffed into the secret compartment again.

Everyone has secrets, Tang Xi's secret is a dagger, and Tang Xue's secret is a mobile phone and a time destined to be destroyed.

******

Have you ever seen butterflies all over the sky, blue corpse girls, condensed into shapes...

When Jiang Yu woke up, he had a splitting headache. He held his head and thought about it. What happened?Suddenly, the picture of Tang Xue covered in blood flashed in front of his eyes, he jumped off the bed suddenly, ran to the door in a few steps, opened the door and was about to go out, when he saw Tang Xue walking in with breakfast .Seeing Jiang Yu's flustered appearance, she froze for a moment, then felt a little helpless: "What are you...what are you doing?"

"Xiaoxue, are you Xiaoxue?" Jiang Yu looked at the lover in front of him, he looked at her face carefully, her face was still the same as in memory, but the subtle traces left by the years made him feel a little strange.He remembered that after living together for so many years, it seemed that he hadn't seen her for a long time.

After hearing his words, Tang Xue was a little dumbfounded: "Who else am I if I'm not Tang Xue?" She stretched out her hand and touched his forehead, "It's not hot, what's wrong? Haven't you recovered from the nightmare?"

"Nightmare?" Jiang Yu couldn't react, what's the matter with the nightmare?

"That's right, last night you had nightmares, kept calling my name, and said sorry." Tang Xue smiled helplessly.

"Is it just...a nightmare?" Jiang Yu frowned. If it was a nightmare, this dream was too realistic, and it almost made him unable to distinguish between dreams and reality.

"What did you dream about?" Tang Xue took his hand and brought him to the bed. After putting the breakfast on the table, she held his hand with a concerned expression on her face, "Honey, did you dream What's the matter~ tell me."

"I... I dreamed that you died, and I lived with another person for 24 years." Jiang Yu shook, and firmly held Tang Xue's hand with his backhand, "It's so real, is it really just a dream?"

Tang Xue's smile suddenly disappeared: "You have lived with another person for 24 years, have you forgotten me?"

Jiang Yu saw her face darken, and hurriedly explained: "No, she is exactly like you... I don't know why I didn't recognize you, I'm sorry."

Tang Xue stared at him for a while, and finally shook her head with a smile: "It's just a dream, how can I really blame you. The person exactly like me is Tang Xi."

"Xiaoxue, don't you want to mention her?" Jiang Yu looked at Tang Xue in surprise, she never liked to mention Tang Xi, why did she say it by herself today.

"It was my fault in the past. I didn't want to mention her, for fear that I would be sad. But she has been dead for so many years, and I can't stay in the shadows forever."

"It's great that you can think that way!" Seeing Tang Xue walk out of the shadows, Jiang Yu was very happy.

"But husband, you must distinguish us clearly in the future, otherwise I will be sad. Even if it is in a dream, you must distinguish clearly."

"Well, I will definitely not be wrong again. By the way, where is Xiaoxuan?"

"Xiaoxuan? Isn't he traveling outside?" Tang Xue looked surprised, not understanding why he brought up his daughter who hadn't returned from the trip.

"Travel? Haven't you come back yet?" Jiang Yu frowned, his dream was too long.

"You're sleepy!" Tang Xue was a little amused, and stretched out her finger to push him lightly.After confirming that everything that was terrifying was just a nightmare, Jiang Yu suddenly relaxed. He followed Tang Xue's strength and lay down on the bed, sighing: "That's great, it's just a dream."

Tang Xue stood up and looked at him, with a mocking smile on the corner of her mouth——

Yes, it was just a nightmare, but this dream of yours has been half my life.

Because of some problems in foreign business, Tang's father and Tang Feng rushed back early this morning. Tang Xue sent away the doctor that his brother had invited back early in the morning, and silenced the few servants of the Tang family.Jiang Yu, who got up late, didn't know all this.Jiang Yu felt that since Xiaoxuan's return home and Xiaoxue's serious illness were nightmares, then Tang's father Tang Feng's visit must also be part of the dream.

A few days later, the couple received the news of Tang Xuan's car accident. Tang Xuan had a car accident while traveling, and the police found Jiang Yu. Although it was only a small car accident, because Tang Xuan unfortunately injured her head, she lost a memory.

Tang Xue comforted the self-blaming Jiang Yu: "It's more important than anything else, it doesn't matter if you forget, we can start from scratch."

"Xiaoxue, you have become different from before."

"That's right." Tang Xue turned her head and thought for a while, "But this is the real, original me."

Later, Tang Xuan recovered. Although he lost his previous memory, he and Tang Xue were as good as sisters.

They once met Lin Chi on the street, Tang Xue pointed at Lin Chi and told Tang Xuan: "This is a primary school boy who has a good relationship with you."

Tang Xuan looked at Lin Chi carefully for a while, then nodded, "Sure enough, it's the type I like."

"Don't worry, I have someone." Tang Xue pointed to Lou Qi who was a few steps behind Lin Chi, "Here, did you see that?" The mother and daughter smiled at each other, completely ignoring Lin Chi's shyness and Lou Qi. at a loss.

Later, Tang Xuan wanted to watch a movie, so he dragged Tang Xue along.While she was queuing up to buy tickets, Tang Xue chatted with Lin Chi.

"You and her look like a real mother and daughter." Lin Chi looked at Tang Xuan's back and said with emotion.

Tang Xue smiled: "In another five or six years, Tang Xuan should get married. I have been waiting for more than 20 years, so why bother to embarrass her during these five or six years. She just wants a good mother, I'm not stingy with giving either."

"Sister, you are so kind."

"I'm not kind. Before taking revenge on Tang Xi, I struggled for a long time. Because of her existence, all the people I love are happy. She supports the happiness of those people. Am I really going to destroy her?"

"That has nothing to do with kindness, it only means that you are kind but not a virgin."

"She's dead, Xiao Chi. After 24 years, Tang Xi finally died."

They chatted for a while, and when they saw Tang Xuan came back with the ticket, she dragged Tang Xue to say goodbye to Lin Chi.After the mother and daughter disappeared into the crowd, Lou Qi suddenly clicked his tongue: "Tang Xue is really ruthless."

"How to say?"

"The tribute given to Tang Xi by Tang Xi's relatives and friends before was taken away by Tang Xue, who died for her. She received it for more than [-] years. No accident, this tribute to Tang Xi will always belong to her. And Tang Xue hasn't 'died' yet, no one will pay homage to Tang Xue, ghosts without enshrinement are lonely ghosts, Tang Xue has plenty of time, and Tang Xi's soul is exhausted."

"..." Lin Chi suddenly didn't know what to say, he neither felt that Tang Xue was vicious, nor was he pleased with Tang Xi's results.For Tang Xue's choice, he can only respect and bless her, and hope that this senior with a sweet smile can gain real happiness.

He looked at Lou Qi next to him. A few days ago, Danqing had a whim and wanted to hold a Christmas event in the store. Lin Chi was in charge of the purchases. Danqing rolled his eyes and pushed Lou Qi out to accompany him.

Lou Qi looked at the things they were carrying, and said to Lin Chi, "If you've bought enough things, go back. Put the things in the noodle shop and I'll take you back." Lin Chi's ability to attract ghosts is his It was unheard of, so usually after dusk, he would not let him go back to Yunlou alone... After all, it was his wife in name.

"No need today, just go back to the noodle shop. Huaiyin is out today, so she will pick me up later." The two chatted casually, and walked slowly towards the noodle shop...

Later, Tang Xue once told Lin Chi what had happened in the past half month, and Lin Chi asked her why she didn't let her family know the truth directly.

Tang Xue shook her head. She said that the reason why she came back was firstly for revenge, which she had already accomplished; Things she wants to avoid as much as possible.

But Lin Chi thought that the reason Tang Xue chose to use such crude means to cover up the truth, in her heart, she still hoped that her family members would know about it, right?I hope someone can share with her the pain and loneliness of these 24 years...

Maybe one day, they will get a glimpse of this deliberately hidden time from her ageless face, hidden cell phone...
