Chapter 144 Don't leave any regrets in the next life
Yun Yanchu looked at Chang Yubai, stretched out his hand to take the bead containing the ghost control technique, and then handed it to Jiang Jun, "Since I'm giving it to you, you should study hard."
Jiang Jun nodded like a primary school student listening to instructions, rolled the beads into his body, then looked at Chang Yu and said in vain, "Thank you."
"It can be regarded as a good thing I did before leaving. It was my own thoughts that caused this sin that should not have happened." Chang Yubai shook his head and said with a smile.
"Can I ask, what exactly happened between you, Miss Yue and Lin Zheng?" Yun Yanchu asked tentatively.
Chang Yubai did not expect that Yun Yan, who had just been very calm about doing business with him, would suddenly show such a curious look.
After thinking about it, Yun Yanchu was only about the same age as Yue Yimeng when he died. It was the time when he couldn't hide his curiosity about this kind of thing.
He nodded slowly and waved his hand, and the courtyard returned to its former bustling appearance.
Seeing this, Chang Yubai looked at Yun Yanchu with satisfaction, raised his hand slightly and gestured to the stone table on one side: "Sit down, I'll tell you."
"Okay." Yun Yanchu nodded, and the three of them walked to the stone table and sat down.
Yue Yimeng sat aside obediently. Apart from the hollow and dull look in her eyes, she couldn't see any other problems.
Chang Yubai tidied Yue Yimeng's slightly messy hair and recounted the past events.
Back then, his marriage to Yue Yimeng was postponed because he was in poor health. Since it was his problem, it was hard for others to blame Yue Yuanyuan.
However, for future convenience, he stayed in Yueyuan, nominally to cultivate their relationship.
But gradually, he discovered that Yue Yimeng was particularly different from a guard named Lin Zheng.
So he sent people to investigate, but all the people he sent were wiped out.
He never gave up the investigation of Lin Zheng, and gradually found some clues.
When he found the final result and learned Lin Zheng's true identity, he immediately ran to Yue Yimeng, hoping to inform Yue Yimeng of the matter and let her see Lin Zheng's true face.
Bu Cheng wanted to see the scene where Yue Yimeng confessed to Lin Zheng. Watching the two embracing each other in the courtyard, even Chang Yubai couldn't bear it.
He did not go out, but returned to Lianhu City shortly after that day on the grounds that his condition had worsened.
After that, he kept wandering around and accidentally entered a secret place and obtained a book called Ghost Control Technique.
But since he was a human and not a ghost, he didn't care too much.
Time passed day by day. Although he was not in Yueyuan City, he was aware of every move in Yueyuan City.
Chang Yubai gave in when he learned that Yue Yimeng had been discussing with Lin Zheng for many days, questioning whether to break off the engagement with her, and even starting a war between the two cities.
He doesn't want to see his beloved suffer infamy, nor does he want her to marry someone he doesn't like.
He chose to let it go and lied to the outside world that his illness was more serious, so that the city lord took it seriously and believed that his sudden illness was related to the marriage in Yueyuan City.
His engagement with Yue Yimeng was naturally terminated.
Yue Yimeng was very happy and specially sent someone to send a thank you gift.
It was said to be sarcastic, but he just laughed it off.
It wasn't until a year after leaving Yueyuan City that Yue Yimeng sent an invitation, telling him that she and Lin Zheng were getting married.
After that day, he was confused and drank to drown his sorrows. On her wedding day, he received the news that Yueyuan City was massacred by Lin Zheng.
He suddenly remembered that Lin Zheng's identity he had investigated was that he was the former deputy city lord of Yueyuan City.
Lin Zheng's father devoted his life to allowing the people of Yueyuan City to have the ability to practice normally, but he developed an extremely cruel forbidden technique.
The probability of success in transferring the spiritual roots of a normal monk to the people of Yueyuan City is less than 10%.
He lied about 100% success and deceived countless people in the city to come to exchange their spiritual roots. As a result, more than 10,000 people died tragically in the city in just one month.
When too many people died, it was impossible to hide it, and the unreliability of this forbidden technique was exposed.
Lin Zheng's father was attacked by a group of people, and was finally killed by the Lord of Yue City with a sword. His head was hung at the city gate to be despised by others.
Lin Zheng attributed his father's tragic death to the people of Yueyuan City, so his revenge plan quietly began.
First, he designed Yue Yimeng to save him and take him into the city, and then planned every step of Yue Yimeng to make him like him.
Step by step, until the last step, when the whole city celebrated this happy day, they fell into extreme panic.
He successfully avenged his father at the cost of killing a whole city of people.
When the news came that no one had survived in Yueyuan City, even the Lord of Hu City was shocked.
Chang Yubai asked for orders and rushed to Yueyuan City. It was half a month later when he arrived, and he saw scenes of corpses littering the city.
Chang Yubai walked towards the city lord's palace step by step. Someone had already packed up the palace. Several coffins were placed in the hall. One person was kneeling in front of the coffin, it was Xiaoqin.
Chang Yubai fell into endless regret after learning from Xiaoqin what happened on the wedding day.
He resented why he didn't tell Yue Yimeng back then, even if he told City Lord Yue, maybe this scene wouldn't have happened today.
Seeing his beloved woman being pierced through the heart, Chang Yubai was heartbroken and his head turned white overnight.
In the midst of regret, Chang Yubai remembered that the last page of the book on the art of controlling ghosts once recorded a formation that could be sacrificed with the blood of thousands of people to create a formation that could reverse everything.
But what he didn't know was that the blood sacrifice of these ten thousand people required living people, so he used the ten thousand people lost in Yueyuan City to create this formation.
Turning Yueyuan City into a ghost town repeating the past.
Chang Yubai and Xiaoqin were both trapped in the ghost town until their death, but they never thought of leaving.
After learning the cause and effect, Yun Yanchu looked at Chang Yubai's white hair, which did not match the one he had when he died.
Chang Yubai noticed Yun Yanchu's gaze, raised his hand to hold a strand of hair, and said with a warm smile: "I'm afraid of scaring her, so sometimes I will go out to accompany her on my behalf, even if I hear her complain about myself. "
When Chang Yu mentioned Yue Yimeng in his vernacular, his eyes were particularly gentle and doting. He slightly curved his lips and looked at Yue Yimeng, even though his lover didn't love him.
I couldn't respond to him, and even died on the day I loved others the most.
Yun Yanchu's eyes trembled slightly, as if he saw the shadow of his past self through Chang Yubai, "Don't have any regrets in the next life."
Chang Yubai nodded and said, "Okay."
…
Yun Yanchu moved the two soul-transforming beads, and Chang Yubai and Yue Yimeng were sucked into them.
As the soul-changing beads lit up, the two beads flew into the air and soon disappeared.
The ancient city of Yueyuan, which lost its support, soon began to change.
The prosperity of the courtyard has faded into a state of dilapidation.
When Yun Yanchu walked out of the city lord's mansion again, bones could be seen everywhere on the street.
Walking on the street, Yun Yanchu saw many unknown monks asking questions.
"This, this, what's going on..."
"There were so many people just now, why are they suddenly turned into bones?"
"Was it just an illusion?"
"..."
Yun Yanchu didn't listen anymore, but hurried back towards the inn. This chapter has been completed!
