C7 Ethereal Separation

Perhaps it was because of Zhao Yixian's gentleness, but the time was very short. "Young master, be good and stay in your room. Don't go anywhere."

After saying that, Zhao Yixian turned around and walked out of the room. Her slender and perfect figure was deeply imprinted in my mind.

After Zhao Yixian left the room, it seemed as if someone had covered my ears. It was as if I was deaf and could no longer hear anything. The old wooden door of the room was obviously shaking.

I quickly got up and ran to the door of my room. Zhao Yixian's words made me feel uneasy, as if something was going to happen.

Through the crack of the door, I saw the scene in the courtyard. At this moment, Grandpa Hu had already returned, he and his grandfather were lying on the ground, and on their backs, I saw two female ghosts wearing black birthday suits lying on their bodies, making them unable to move at all.

In the middle of the courtyard, I saw something that made me even more worried. Surrounded by the dozen or so female ghosts, Zhao Yixian continuously pounced on Zhao Yixian with bared fangs and brandished claws, her sharp nails leaving streaks of blood on Zhao Yixian's body.

Zhao Yixian's face was calm as she faced the female ghosts that pounced on her, constantly protecting her fair and beautiful face. The corners of her eyes twitched, and with a wave of her arm, she was able to repel a female ghost, but she was unable to injure them. Those ugly and ferocious female ghosts had no intention of showing mercy, and in less than three minutes, Zhao Yixian's blue skintight dress had already been dyed purple.

"Stop, what ability do you female ghosts have to attack me!" I suddenly grabbed the door and prepared to leave. I don't know why, the door wasn't unlocked, but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get to the door.

When I made a move, the female ghosts all looked at me. Zhao Yixian was already exhausted and stood shakily in the middle of the courtyard. She seemed to be saying something, but I couldn't hear anything.

When the female ghosts saw me, they stopped attacking Zhao Yixian. A few of them had already floated to the front of the door. Their ugly, twisted, and pale faces were stuck to the middle of the door, making them look extremely terrifying.

"Come, come bite me!" "Ugly!" I wasn't afraid. Instead, I shouted loudly. The way they treated Zhao Yixian and me had long since dispelled the fear in my heart.

"Pah!" A pale palm suddenly strikes my shoulder from behind and a huge force pulls me backwards. In an instant, I feel a chilliness penetrating my heart. Before I can react, I see an even uglier female face appear within ten centimeters of me.

The ghost lady stared at me. I couldn't move my body at all. It was as if I was tied up by the air.

The ghost lady looked at me for a long time. Her black lips moved a few times and I don't know what she said. At that moment, Zhao Yixian, who was covered in blood, suddenly came to my side.

Zhao Yixian reached out her hand to pull me into her embrace before escorting me to a corner. She furiously said something and those female ghosts also rushed in. They all bared their fangs and brandished their claws at me.

I couldn't hear anything, it was as if I had gone deaf. The situation in the room was chaotic, but I couldn't hear anything at all.

Zhao Yixian talked to them for almost a minute, and eventually the female ghosts charged over. At that moment, Zhao Yixian extended a hand that was full of blood, and lightly brushed against my face, causing me to feel dizzy and exhausted. I leaned against the corner of a wall and sat down, my eyelids becoming extremely heavy, and before I closed my eyes, I could only see a dozen female ghosts rushing over, and Zhao Yixian's small, delicate, and bloody body was the only thing protecting me.

"Yes."

When I woke up, it was already sunrise. Grandpa and Grandpa Hu were sitting on the bed, both of them in poor mental states. Grandpa was completely relieved when he saw me wake up and said, "I finally woke up. It seems I safely escaped this calamity."

Grandpa Hu followed up, "Yes, it's just that we pity that Lady Zhao."

I abruptly sat up and asked anxiously, "Grandfather, where is Zhao Yixian?"

Grandpa shook his head and sighed without saying anything. I quickly grabbed Grandpa Hu's sleeve: "Grandpa Hu, I beg you, tell me where Zhao Yixian went. I have to go find her. She's fine right?"

Looking at the expressions of the two elders, my tears immediately became like pearls with a broken string. That kind of feeling was hard to describe, even when grandfather hit me the most, I had never shed so many tears. I vaguely felt that my elder sister fairy, the woman who called me Young Master, the woman who protected me with her life, had already left.

I would rather live in a dream and let her live forever in my mind. I quickly grabbed the groom's clothes by the bed and put them on randomly, saying, "Grandfather, I want to marry Zhao Yixian."

Grandfather didn't oppose me this time. He nodded heavily and said, "Alright, I'll bring you to see her."

"Alright!" I excitedly jumped up. Since grandfather said that he would bring me to see her, doesn't that mean that she's still here?

Grandfather and Grandpa Hu led me to the inner part of the yard. To the west corner of the yard, there was an extra mound of earth, this mound was newly dug, and the soil on top of it had not dried yet. In front of the mound, there was a wooden board with a pen and ink, there was nothing written on the board.

"She's gone. We built a grave for her here. You must pay your respects in the future. This will be beneficial for her reincarnation." Grandpa Hu said.

Seeing grandfather's sad and serious expression, I knelt in front of the grave and sobbed once again. This time, I cried for almost an hour, and finally, my tears dried up. I said dispiritedly, "Grandfather, Grandpa Hu, I want to marry her. Is that okay?"

"Of course. Such a loyal woman is worth it." Grandpa Hu answered.

I didn't ask my grandfather what happened last night, nor did I know where those female ghosts came from, nor did I know what happened to Zhao Yixian's death. These things, my grandfather would tell me, at this time, I just knelt in front of her grave and cried.

Then, he took out the Jade Ring and earnestly said to it: "Miss Zhao, thank you for your help. Without you, he would be lying in the coffin now, his life was given by you, and if he wanted to go to your place today, I would have to help you."

As his grandfather spoke, he poured one of the cups onto the Jade Ring, and when the wine touched the Jade Ring, it emitted a faint white mist, which then seeped into the soil below.

"Drink your wine." Grandpa Hu reminded him.

I picked up the glass and drank from it. It was the first time I'd ever had a drink, and it stung my throat and made me cry.

It was very dazzling to see sunlight shining in from the front, but at the back of his grandfather's yard, a black cloud suddenly condensed and formed into a group of clouds. Grandpa Hu sighed and said, "In the east, it is raining on the west side of the sun, but there is love there.

"Zhao Yixian, Zhao Lianfaan, your name is quite fitting. You can change it to Zhao Lianfaan from now on." His grandfather echoed him.

I nodded. Although the name was a bit feminine, I liked it a lot. I picked up the brush on the floor, lit up the ink, and wrote two lines of twisted words on the blank wooden board: "Wife Zhao Yixian's Tomb. Husband Zhao Lianfaanli."

The Jade Ring was tied to my neck with a red string, so I stuck it close to my chest. It was quite strange, because during the daytime, when it was very hot, the Jade Ring was very cold and exceptionally comfortable. And at night, when it was cold, the Jade Ring's temperature was even higher than my body's temperature.

That night, I kept dreaming about Zhao Yixian, especially the scene of her being surrounded by those female ghosts.

When I woke up in the morning, the pillow was soaked with my tears. I knew that in my dream, I had cried all night, and I missed Zhao Yixian even more. I hated those female ghosts to the bone.

Early the next morning, I got out of bed and, while Grandpa was still in bed, I gritted my teeth and left the house while carrying a hoe and a shovel. I was going to dig up the graves of those female ghosts and take out their bones to burn in the sun.

Just as I walked out of the courtyard, heavy rain started to fall outside. I did not care about that, I did not want to dig up the tombs of those female ghosts, but the resentment in my heart would never come out. I even thought that I might as well just let those female ghosts kill me.

He didn't even want his life, so there was nothing to fear.

Carrying a hoe and shovel, he sprinted all the way, crying as he ran. The smell of rain and tears mixed together was a bit sour.

I don't know where I got my strength from, but I ran for two hours without breakfast. When I got to the back, I could only drag the shovel.

The sky seemed to be supporting my actions. When we arrived at the top of the hill, the dark clouds had dissipated and the rain had stopped. The morning sun was very warm on my body, so I took off my clothes, wrung out all the water on them, and carried the shovel and hoe on my shoulders as I headed towards the top of the hill.

After walking for nearly a hundred meters, I started to recall the route Grandpa Hu took to bring me up that night, wanting to find the graves of those female ghosts Grandpa Hu invited to a ghost show.

I passed a familiar grave, belonging to the mother of a classmate of mine, who hanged herself, and I buried her together at the funeral, and when I passed the grave of her mother, I bowed to it twice and went on, but as I walked I found that I had returned to her grave, and none of the ghosts' graves I was looking for were in sight.

I was a bit anxious and felt a wave of resentment. If I don't dig up the graves of those female ghosts, I won't be willing to give up …
