Chapter 232
"And then...you should all know." Zhang Wan said.
really.
As we all know, when Xie Wen was 18 years old, Zhang Wan entered a cage and stepped into death. Since then, she disappeared without a trace.
"At that time, I had a faint feeling that I might not be able to get out, so I left this letter. I believe that the divination will not lie to me. Since I said that I will see you here, then I will see you one day."
Zhang Wan looked at Xie Wen and said, "I have been waiting for many years."
Fortunately, it's time to wait.
Maybe it's because the wish has come true, or maybe the spirit she left behind can't last too long. When she finished speaking, her figure began to fade slowly, and her outline became blurred.
The surrounding black mist also surged up, and Huigu's crawling sound, which had been blocked out, could be clearly heard again.
When I heard it, I even heard Xia Qiao's vague exclamation, the cooperative words of Zhang's siblings, and Bu Ning's response.
"This cage has been in place for too long, it really should be released." Xie Wen said to Zhang Wan.
"I know, I know." Zhang Wan nodded and said, "I leave this letter just to see you again, to see if you have come back to the world, whether you are doing well, and whether you still look like I wandered around back then. As you can see below, you are the only one left."
As she spoke, her eyes turned to Wen Shi, and then back to Xie Wen after a while, "I've already seen you. I've been waiting here for more than ten years, so I should go."
"The black mist on Songyun Mountain has disappeared. You only need to open another door to connect Liuzhuang. Those people have been living outside for a long time, and they have been homesick for a long time. Once the door is opened, they will go back by themselves. If they are freed, this cage will be closed." I can go away."
Compared with the sealing formation in the mountains, these are trivial matters, and they can be done with little effort. Whether it is Xie Wen or Wen Shi, they all know what to do. But Zhang Wan couldn't help reminding her again.
"Okay." Xie Wen replied, the withered hand was always behind his back, and the long and spacious robe was blowing like clouds in the wind.
He has walked for thousands of years in the name of being untouchable, and what he has seen and heard has long been fused into his bones. It is difficult to see the shadow of Mr. Xie's mansion from him.
He bent down to pick up some boulders, and filled a few gaps in the formation that Zhang Wanbu had made, and made some adjustments. Everything seems to be at his fingertips here, always giving people a sense of effortless idleness.
But when he put down the last boulder, a gust of wind suddenly picked up on the flat ground, and the black mist rolled into a ball, turning into a huge vortex above the boulder.
That was the door to Liuzhuang that he reopened.
The moment the door was opened, Huigu, who crawled out from the depths of the filth, suddenly stopped moving. They froze in front of the vortex, and began to tremble endlessly after a long time.
They twist their necks and limbs, as if the soul is tugging at the body.
Their figures are terrifying, but their pale faces are full of sadness. Terrible, pathetic, whimpering.
Xie Wen tapped his fingers again on a certain spot between the formation stones.
The wind became more violent in an instant, and those Huigu were swept away, and finally trembled violently. Released the spiritual form of swallowing in the body.
I saw countless pale figures leaning forward, scrambling to be the first to rush towards the vortex leading to Liuzhuang.
Zhang Wan was right, they had been away from home for too long, and they couldn't wait.
Those people kept leaving, and the whole cage became uneasy. Thousands of invisible hands seemed to be born in this land, trying to drag those who want to go back to Liuzhuang by force, this is probably the legacy of changing fate back then.
Some of the figures rushed to the middle, and suddenly stagnated, struggling crazily in the wind.
The moment they screamed, they still opened their ten fingers when they heard it, and then snapped them together. Countless puppet lines shot straight in all directions like sharp swords, they walked close to the ground, like the sharpest blades, cutting off all the forces holding the figure,
In an instant, the figure was free again.
They rushed into the vortex like a sea tide. From then on, the fallen leaves return to their roots, and there is no need to wander in other places.
When the last figure left, the cage that had existed for thousands of years finally disintegrated. All the sights are rapidly disappearing, and all the sounds are beginning to become blurred.
Zhang Wan also faded into fog.
Before dissipating, she suddenly asked Xie Wenwen: "Aside from that time at Liuzhuang, have I seen you elsewhere? In other lives, in other places."
Xie asked, "I've seen it."
Zhang Wan looked at him and said, "I've seen other people too."
For example, there are more than a hundred mouths in the Xie Mansion in Qiantang.
Xie Wen still said: "I have seen it."
Zhang Wan asked softly, "Are you... going to send us off in every lifetime?"
Xie Wen was quiet for a moment, then smiled and said, "No, I met by chance."
He often meets old people like Zhang Wan somewhere in the world. They have already changed their appearance, have a new identity, and a new family. No matter how vigorous the love, hatred and concern were once, after a reincarnation, they will become dusty past and will never be remembered by anyone.
Even if I think about it, it has been too long, things are changing, and the good news is hard to continue.
To them, he is a strange passerby who occasionally passes by, some just glance at him, some feel kind and talk to him. Then they would rush into their respective lives and never meet with him again.
He doesn't stick to this, but just stays behind those old people for a while, leaning on the tree to see him off. Watching them come to the end of the road, turn a corner and disappear, they will smile and leave.
