Chapter 30: Dark Night

The old man took the paper with his skinny hand, looked at the person and the words, and was speechless for a while, grinding his lips and said: "The old man has spent most of his life accumulating virtue and saving lives, and when this happens, he is unwilling to..."

A few silver locks fell from the wide gauze cuffs onto the table, interrupting the old man's words.

For a person who has practiced medicine all his life and is always poor and sick, the choice is necessary and helpless.The old man looked up: "One life..."

It has been more than four months, there is already a pulsation, already attached to the flesh and blood... life.Chen Yuhui had a headache when he thought about it. He couldn't think of any other way out except for abortion, and he didn't want to give himself another way out.

When a man conceives a child, he has an unnatural relationship, which is grotesque and terrifying.Chen Yuhui absolutely didn't want to fall to that point, even if she risked her life.

The old man sighed, and wrote down the familiar words of Guiwei, safflower, curcuma, and other herbs. The ink dripped down, like a murder knife, soaked with a trace of poison.

Chen Yuhui's Liulan and Shen Mo's eyes reflected a thick blackness.Resting his head on his hands, his eyes followed the tip of the old man's pen, and his thoughts drifted to nowhere, exuding a breathless suffocation.

"Take this medicine and it will take effect immediately. When the baby is first born, it is advisable to fry ginseng Jinghui soup and eat it with the baby, so as not to stop bleeding and kill both mother and child. Be careful..." the old man repeatedly urged.

Chen Yuhui took the thin piece of paper that weighed a thousand catties, folded it carefully, put it close to her body, and paid some fine silver as a thank you, and left quickly.

In the dark alleyway, a door opened, and the dim light in the room streamed in. A tall woman walked out and got into the car in a few steps.With the clatter of horseshoes, the carriage gradually disappeared into the night.

The night covered the entire city of Taiyuan, like a black cloth that cut off the light source and wrapped the streets and alleys and people and things in it.

The carriage in which Chen Yuhui was sitting was even darker, and he could not see his fingers. The enclosed space was square and square, and even the air was trapped.

Sitting in the airtight carriage, Chen Yuhui lost her mind and took out the thin prescription hidden in her clothes. She sat there numbly, holding the paper in her hands, and there was a slight rustling sound due to the force of her hands. .

After sitting like this for a long time, the carriage bumped, and the sound of hoofbeats rang in my ears.Even Chen Yuhui, who was depressed, was impatient and called out, "Yuan Cong!"

After driving for so long, it's time to get home.Chen Yuhui's name was Yuan Cong, but no one answered.

The sound seeps into the air, like water seeping into cotton, and the thick black fills it like ink that is about to solidify.

"Yuan Cong?" Chen Yuhui called again.

The sound of horseshoes, creaking... the sound of the wheels turning.

Uneasiness came suddenly.

Chen Yuhui's heart skipped a beat, thinking of the ghostly scenes she saw when she was a child, her hand holding the prescription was gradually sweating.

Chen Yuhui sat quietly in the dark for a while, he didn't dare to open the curtain or door curtain hastily.Listening to the sound outside, he slowly folded the paper in his hand and put it inside his clothes.

Yuan Cong, I hope you are okay.Chen Yuhui closed her eyes, ignoring the suffocating darkness, and slowly reached out, ready to lift the curtain.

Just when Chen Yuhui was about to touch the silk curtain, the curtain was suddenly lifted, and the flowing air rushed into the carriage with a cool breeze.

Chen Yuhui opened her eyes and looked outside with a restrained voice.

Yuan Cong sat outside, but didn't turn around.Obviously, it was not him who opened the curtain.

Yuan Cong?Chen Yuhui opened his mouth to scream, but his voice was still swallowed into his throat.Yuan Cong's back is so strange, motionless, like a stone sculpture.

Chen Yuhui was thinking wildly.

Yuan Cong, who was motionless, suddenly moved, his body was still sitting facing forward, his head suddenly turned around, and he smiled in front of Chen Yuhui. The smile was wide, his mouth was wide open and stiff, and he said: " arrive."

Chen Yuhui stepped back in fright, her heart beating nervously.Something is wrong, what should I do?

Yuan Cong maintained that smile and that posture.Chen Yuhui couldn't advance or retreat.

"Ah..." Responding vaguely, Chen Yuhui restrained the uneasiness in her heart, and lifted the curtain on one side of the car with trembling hands as if responding to Yuan Cong's "arrived".

Arrived...can't get off...what is this place?In the middle of the night, he really couldn't come out casually. After too long, he forgot about his Yin constitution.

When the car curtain was lifted halfway, Chen Yuhui shuddered.He is no stranger to this place.I saw it in my dream.

In the dark and dilapidated house, the words "Li's Mansion" are reflected on two pale lanterns.Chen Yuhui's heart fluttered with the thin lantern.The wind blew open the two doors with a bang, and drove straight in.There are many shadows in the dark courtyard, as if there are many people walking around.

Chen Yuhui yelled: "Go, go, go..."

The door curtain of the carriage was still lifted by someone's hand, as if inviting him, the person sitting in the car, to get out of the car. The sound of people's voices and footsteps... There is obviously no light!Let's go, let's go... Chen Yuhui opened his mouth wide, breathing quickly... let's go...

Yuan Cong, who didn't know when he turned his face back, started to move again, the horse's hooves clattered, the wheels creaked, the wind was cut off by the curtain that was automatically lowered, and the cramped small compartment returned to the still darkness.

Chen Yuhui sat guarded all over her body, sensitively feeling that the surrounding darkness had changed from stagnant to lively and flowing, and then slowly relaxed.The extremely tired mind turned slowly, Li's Mansion...is the place where the little monkey took Li Gui in the dream, yes, the haunted house in Taiyuan.Is he going to invite himself?No... want to live, as a human being.

I don't like ghosts or ghosts since I was a child.Stay away.

Another voice came from outside the carriage, it was Tan Niang's voice. "Young Master, you're home." Gentle and honest... Yuan Cong's voice.

The silk curtains of the car were raised.Yuan Cong's face appeared, not the weird grimace just now, but a familiar face with human warmth.

"En." Chen Yuhui confirmed on his face again and again, exhaled lightly, and walked out slowly.

In front of you is the human world.Dan Niang led a group of servants to wait at the door, and complained when she saw Yuan Cong.The old housekeeper also blamed his son for running around at night with the young master.Yuan Cong stood aside listening to the training with his head bowed, nodding from time to time.Seeing the master came back safely, the maids carrying lanterns stood aside with smiles, and the servants looked relaxed.

Danniang directed people to prepare water and food, shook the clothes on her wrists, and put them on for Chen Yuhui.Chen Yuhui listened to her complaining about why she was wearing so little, and looked at herself. After taking off the cross-dressing women's clothes, she just wore a white hexagram without adding any more clothes.In front of me are people living in the same family, and there are warm lights flickering... Chen Yuhui smiled slightly.

In the deep darkness behind him, he didn't look back, and entered the house surrounded by his family.

It turned out that the night was already late, and those things in the morning, now that I think about it, it is already so far away.From going out to coming back, it's only one day, but it feels far more than one day.

Chen Yuhui thought that although he tried his best to pretend to be calm, he was actually as afraid of the dark as he was afraid of having children. Although he was familiar with monsters and ghosts, he was as repulsive as ordinary human beings. Here, there are also dissatisfaction, jealousy and anger. He is just an ordinary person, longing to love and be loved. If the love is wrong and you can't persist, then you can give up.Chen Yuhui didn't think there was anything wrong with him acting according to the world's ideas all the time.

The prescription is in the hand, and people can get the medicine.

Chen Yuhui didn't think about it, how could an ordinary person have such abilities as seeing spirits and ghost mediums?Can an ordinary man get pregnant because of a female?How can an ordinary person who falls in love with ghosts escape?Can a dose of medicine knock down the vain absurdity?Can turning around cut off the throbbing love?

Even in the human world, the most inescapable thing is fate, and the most elusive thing is heart.What can I do?
