Weird collapse, chasing husband crematorium

"..."

"..."

On the wedding day, Li Mo was sitting on horseback, and the sedan chair was empty.

In the mansion prepared by Qin Suyi, countless relatives, friends, common people and passers-by stood outside the door, only to see that there was only the groom in the wedding hall.

He just stood there quietly, wearing a festive red robe.

The hands that should have been held were empty, and the most important person was missing from this wedding.

The bride did not come.

She didn't come.

Hua didn't come.

The wedding banquet ended and everyone who had eaten left.

Those who had not left yet looked at Li Mo, who was alone and desolate in the hall, and shook their heads repeatedly, feeling very emotional.

Some were laughing at the joke, some were mocking him, and some felt sorry for Li Mo...

Li Mo did not leave. He kept waiting until Qin Suyi drove away everyone in the mansion, leaving only Li Mo standing in the hall, and Jiang Wanru standing behind him waiting for Li Mo to turn around.

Everyone, including Taixu's seven disciples, couldn't help but wonder, where did the Red Kite Immortal go?

As day and night alternate, the stars scatter and their light fades.

Just like the paulownia tree, it seems to be alive in spring, but in fact it is dead in winter.

The limited time passed quickly. In the silent hall, Li Mo slowly closed his eyes and murmured in a trance.

Li Mo's body began to age, and death gradually approached him.

In the last few seconds of his life, he saw many things and had memories that he was completely unclear about.

He seemed to have been to many places and would return here again in the future.

"I see……"

“I’ve forgotten a lot of things, but that’s okay.”

"Because the answer I'm really looking for isn't in the present, but in the future."

After he finished speaking, his cold body fell to the ground with a clang, his pupils dilated, and his consciousness left the dilapidated body.

At the same time, at 9:03 in the evening, an uninvited guest came to the Yuanyue Inn in reality.

After returning to the inn, Shigure Kirara couldn't help but feel cold. This coldness was not transmitted from the outside, but from the inside out. Every cell and every part of the limbs was so cold that they trembled, as if they were soaked in ice-cold lake water.

Saori Tsuruyu wrapped Shigure Kirara's whole body with a thick quilt, hoping to use it to resist the severe cold.

Although the effect is minimal, it is better than nothing.

"It's the second day... Captain, how are you feeling now?"

"It's cold... very cold..."

Shigure Kirara's voice was trembling, and she couldn't speak clearly. She could only roughly express her feelings.

No fire can be lit at night. Even if a light is lit, it must be extinguished quickly and moved to another place. Stoves that can increase the temperature are naturally not allowed to work. Shi Yu Qiluo can only rely on layers of thick quilts to cover herself.

Saori Tsuruyu reached out her hand to touch Shigure Kirara's face. The moment she touched it, she subconsciously withdrew her hand. Shigure Kirara's face was like a piece of ice.

Saori Tsuruyu looked down and saw some water stains on her fingers.

According to the predictions in the notebook.

Three days later at 9:04 pm, "she" will find Shigure Kirara.

Three days later at 9:05 pm, Shigure Kirara will die.

It is now 9:04 on the second night.

"Tick...tick..."

There was a sound of dripping water outside the door.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

and the sound of objects being struck.

Saori Tsuruyu suppressed her curiosity, thinking that in this situation, the only person knocking on the door could be a ghost.

But the inn can hide the breath of living people, and there is only one possibility for this ghost to find this place, that is, Shigure Kirara triggered the law.

Fortunately, the inn seemed to have a certain degree of protection, and the ghost was stopped outside the door and could not get in.

"Captain, please stay here for a while. I'll go to the second floor to see what's going on outside."

"Be...careful..." Shi Yu Qiluo tightened the quilt even harder, and gradually, the quilt was wetted by liquid that came from nowhere.

"Yes, I will. Maybe if I figure out the patterns of this ghost, I can find a way to keep you alive."

Saori Tsuruyu left quickly, ran to the room on the second floor, walked to the first room on the second floor and opened the window.

The first room is just slightly above the inn's main door. You can see the inn's main door by just lowering your head slightly. It is an excellent observation point.

But observation also has risks. No one knows what posture the ghost will be in when you open the window and stick your head out to observe it.

You might come face to face with a ghost as soon as you stick your head out.

"Since you're here to find the captain, there's no reason for you to target me."

"Besides, there's no difference between targeting me and targeting the captain. As long as the ghost enters the inn, we can only rely on the pistol my brother gave us to deal with it. If we can't deal with it, we can only wait for death."

"My brother hasn't woken up yet. I can't just sit there and wait for death."

Saori Tsuruyu took a deep breath and stuck her head out of the window without hesitation.

"Tick...tick..."

The night is like a pitch-black curtain, and there is no rain in the sky, so what is the sound of water?

Saori Tsuruyu looked closely and saw a person standing outside the inn's door, with his head lowered so that her appearance could not be seen clearly.

"Another captain?"

"No, she is a ghost from the lake."

Saori Tsuruyu made a quick judgment.

The person standing at the door of the inn was another Shigure Kirara, but she had obvious characteristics of a ghost.

Gui Shiyu had no concept of pushing the door. Her face was pressed against the door, her whole body was wet, and lake water flowed out of her ears, mouth, and eyes, forming a small pool at her feet.

"Unlike the captain, she has no gray hair."

"And...I always feel like she's trying something."

Gui Shigure Qiluo took steps tirelessly over and over again, preparing to cross the threshold of the inn's main door, but without exception, her toes would touch the middle of the threshold every time, neither more nor less.

So the sound of objects colliding was actually the sound of Gui Shigure's feet hitting the threshold of the inn's door.

Is this also a characteristic of ghosts?

Ghosts can't cross the threshold?

Chapter 52 Li Mo Returns from the Sea of Souls

Saori Tsuruyu learned a lot from Li Mo, and also learned from Li Mo that the thinking and action logic of ghosts are different from those of living people. They may retain the consciousness of living people before their death, but overall they are still dominated by the logic and rules of ghosts.

"What would happen if I shot her with the Strange Pistol right now?"

Saori Tsuruyu suddenly had a bold idea: to use the strange pistol's ability to suppress ghosts to suppress the ghost Shigure outside the door.

But she couldn't afford to fail.

It would be bad enough if the strange pistol had no effect on Gui Shiyu. If it triggered the unknown rules in Gui Shiyu and allowed her to enter the inn through the window, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Li Mo is still waiting in the inn to wake up, and Saori Tsuruyu can't take the risk.

"Tick...tick..."

Gui Shiyu was still trying, and at one moment his right foot almost crossed the threshold.

The strange pistol that Saori Tsuruyu took from Shigure Kirara almost went off accidentally.

It was almost dawn, and Gui Shiyu turned around and stopped trying to cross the threshold. Instead, he went back the way he came.

Leaving wet footprints wherever they passed.

Saori Tsuruyu didn't turn on her cell phone, fearing that the light would attract her, but as she looked at the dawn rising over the horizon, she thought that it was almost daytime.

"After trying all night, the ghost outside seems to be raising its feet higher and higher, but there is still a certain height gap before it can be stepped over."

"Is this what the notebook predicted? 'She' will only find the captain on the third day and then kill her."

Saori Tsuruyu quickly analyzed the information of the ghost that looked like Shigure Kirara, and it was obvious that the other party came out of the lake.

Just when Saori Tsuruyou let down her guard, the ghost turned around and walked to the door of the inn again.

"It's almost dawn and she's not leaving yet?"

"The notebook predicted that the captain would be found at 9:04 PM on the third day..."

Before Saori Tsuruyu could figure it out, Kishigure's body gradually melted and turned into a pool of silent stagnant water.

Saori Tsuruyu suddenly realized something and immediately rushed to the room where Shigure Kirara was. As soon as she opened the door, her ankles were submerged in the cold lake water.

The entire room was filled with creepy lake water, which was icy cold.

Shiyu Qiluo covered herself with the wet quilt and wrapped herself tightly with the bed sheet, but Shiyu Qiluo did not tremble like before. Half of her body was no longer flesh and blood, but made of lake water.

"Xiaoyou..."

"Captain? What happened? How is your body..."

Saori Tsuruyu hurriedly walked to Shigure Kirara, who put down the quilt, revealing her body invaded by the lake water.

Crystal clear, you can see through it at a glance.

Most of her body had become transparent.

"I feel like I'm dying. I can't even feel cold." Shigure Qiluo sighed and said calmly.

"It's okay Captain, we can ask the notebook what to do."

"Xiaoyou, you and I are both very clear about this outcome. It was within our expectations, so there's nothing much to say. The notebook didn't stop it at the time, which means this situation was part of its plan. It may not answer our questions now."

"How will you know if you don't try?"

Saori Tsuruyu took out her notebook and anxiously asked a wide-ranging question: "How can we keep Captain Shigure Kirara alive?"

【…】

The notebook was silent, and not even a page was opened.

There is no room for negotiation for those who have lost their value.

"If you don't tell me, I'll kill you with this pistol... You're a ghost, so you won't die, but I'm sure you'll pay a price."

"I want to hear how to save the captain's life, now."

【…】

The notebook remained silent, choosing to ignore Saori Tsuruyu's threats.

Or maybe it knew that Saori Tsuruyu would never shoot herself with that gun because she couldn't afford to destroy herself.

After all, Saori Tsuruyu only owns it temporarily.

"Damn it!"

Saori Tsuru was so angry that she smashed the notebook with the butt of the gun. This thing was more difficult to use than she had imagined.

Seeing this, Shigure Qiluo sighed, shook her head and advised: "Forget it, Xiaoyou, don't use it anymore."

"Even he would be driven to despair by this notebook, let alone us."

"I will leave the inn within today. The ghost is here to find me. After I leave, she will follow me and will not enter the inn."

"I've already told you everything in the diary. When the gloomy man wakes up, he'll relay it to you. He'll use the best method to resolve the strangeness."

"The notebook won't lie. If we do this, the world will definitely return to normal. Just like my own death, it's unchangeable...the future."
