Translation:
Xiahou Hong said that he could see ghosts and talk to them. When chatting with him, The Zhenxi general Xie Shang said: "I have no heirs, this is the punishment of my life." Xiahou Hong did not answer for a long time, and then said, "What I saw just now are all some little ghosts, and I must not know the reason for this." ”
Later, Xiahou Hong saw a ghost, driving a new car, with an entourage of more than a dozen people, dressed in green silk robes. He went up and tugged at the cow's nose, and the man in the car asked, "Why did you stop my car?" ”
Xiahou Hong said, "I would like to ask one thing, the Zhenxi general Xie Shang has no children, he is handsome and outstanding, and his reputation is very good, and he cannot be allowed to cut off his descendants." ”
The man in the car was touched by the words and sighed: "You are talking about my son, when he was young, he had a (private) affair with the maid of the family, and he swore not to marry again, who knows but he broke the oath." When the maid died, she went to heaven to file a complaint, so he had no heirs. ”
Xiahou Hong told Xie Shang these words, and Xie Shang said, "I did have this when I was young. ”
[Excerpt from "Search for God" Volume II, Xiahou Hong's Ghost]
novel:
"I have such a thing, such a love..." He groaned, his eyes darkened, dragging the heroic but lonely back to the lonely General's Mansion.
In the northwest corner of the General's Mansion, there is a mottled wooden door that leads to dusty memories. He plucked the patina chain, but finally let go of his hand, unwilling to open it.
Unexpectedly, the moment he turned around, a dead leaf flew in, and like a sharp blade, he broke the chain. Stunned, he looked up to see a man dressed in xuan clothes, his ink hair was scattered, his face was like jade, and his deep pool-like eyes were staring at himself: "In the next lonely and dusty ((<ゝω・) ☆ the name of the warlock used before, continue to use ~), see the fog behind the general, I want to explain one or two for you."
He raised an eyebrow and waved his hand, "Thanks, I don't need it."
"It is better to misunderstand the grudge with the ghost, or to dispel the relief."
He turned to leave, but he ripped open the broken lock, pushed the door and went in. The decaying dust and the faint smell of blood were like his increasingly depleted heart. His somber eyes grew as gloomy as the sea, and he raised his hand to try to stop it, but finally followed in.
In this world, few people know that as a general with great achievements in battle, he had a gray and bleak childhood.
His father died early, his mother raised him to grow up, although the family was more than solid, but his mother was always afraid of the end, not only often worried about wiping tears, but also questioning that he could not shine in the future, sometimes crying too much, but also dragging his hand to find death together, going to Huangquan to reunite with his father.
Although at that time, he was still an ignorant child, he was already shrouded in this thick cloud of sorrow, and there was nowhere to escape. He was determined to be angry and try to be strong and to learn martial arts assiduously, but his mother still believed in it, preferring to look at the light smoke of the prayer, rather than nod his head slightly, giving him a loving affirmation.
"Little master, good kung fu!" The crisp sound, like a lark between green mountains and blue waters, flew to his ears in the cold light of the morning light, waving ripples of joy.
He turned his head to look at the girl, slender figure, plain cloth skirt, black hair tied with a blue handkerchief, although her face was beautiful, but from beginning to end it was the simple dress of an ordinary maid, but in his eyes, it was as bright and brilliant as the light of the sun.
Because, her scorching eyes with stars and the beautiful curved diamond lips like a rainbow, a smile, were all life he had never seen before, a happy life.
His world has always been only the sad clouds of his mother and the shadow of his own sword and light.
She called out a "small family master", so that he had confidence that he would grow into a man who stood tall in the sky in the future, not only shining in the court, but also protecting the family and the country, and becoming a generation of heroes.
"Are you?"
"I am the daughter of Feng Kitchen Niang, my mother is sick, and I will cook for the past few days." She put the basket on the stone table, patted her chest, and said, "Rest assured, my cooking skills can still be used." The owner of the small family is diligent in practicing martial arts, and he should eat more. ”
The fibrous hand filled him with hot soup, he took it in his hand, feeling the slightly scorching warmth, the beautiful face reflected in the soup water made him trance, he couldn't tell what it felt like, only that if he could always be looked at by her warm and happy eyes, he would no longer be afraid of the sad clouds and mist that accompanied him.
"What's your name?" he asked.
"Ah Man."
"Oh?" He was astonished.
"It's like this," she said with a smile, "before I was born, My Father wanted a boy, and when he heard that it was a daughter, he said, 'Girls are pretty good,' so the name was Ah Man." We are poor people's homes, and we are more casual in handling things, which makes the owners of small families smile. ”
"Where to speak, very cute name." He smiled and added in his heart, people are lovely, and any name is cute.
Love and affection have been linked since then, and the two have been accompanied by a heroic beauty from a young boy who is ignorant and pure to a hero and beauty who has a deep affection.
He practiced his sword, she practiced soup with her bare hands; he studied the art of war, she planted flowers and plants; he was annoyed by the haze given by his mother, and she smiled and blew away the clouds of sorrow between his brows... When he returns to the dynasty in victory, the flowers and grasses in the courtyard bloom like a glow, breaking through the nightmare shadows of the past. He jumped off his horse, found her among the flowers, took her hand, and proudly said, "Let's go home!"
Everyone wondered, how could a heroic general have a heart for a humble maid? He didn't care that her good, he knew it well.
Because her parents are at ease, her heart is also very easy-going, accompanied by several years, from playmates to lovers, but in front of everyone, she is still just a maid, does not care about fame, and never pampers and pride, and is ambitious.
"Ah Man, when I was weak and crowned, and the battle (merit) was solid, I pleaded with the general (army) and asked him to be our matchmaker, allowing me to marry you as a wife." At the moment, I really don't want to face my mother's gloom..."
Because of the expedition with the general and the achievement of (battle), his mother finally had a slight change in his mind, but every time he traveled, he still questioned with a dim look whether he was going to die, and there was a rainbow of women's comfort, and he really did not want to return to the black cloud.
"Well, don't worry, lord, I'll always be waiting for you." She smiled and held out her little finger to hook him: "You are the lord of my house, the head of the family!"
Yes, the head of the family, she called herself so from the first time she saw her, and she looked at her for life. He landed a kiss on her lips with peace of mind, and he rejoiced with her.
"Ah Man, I will definitely marry you, oh, it should be 'only marry you as a wife'!" He hooked her little finger and made a sincere promise.
After returning from the victory, she slowly walked toward him in the flowers, her beautiful face smiling like a flower, and the flower shadow behind her was as bright as a cloud, gently tiptoeing up, and shyly telling him that we were going to have children.
He was stunned, and then he showed a warm and happy smile like her, even if what was waiting for him afterwards was heavy clouds: "Ah Man, let's hurry up and get married, I will go and talk to my mother." With the (military) merit protection, she should believe that I can hold up the court, even if she is still a little suspicious, presumably just hate a few words, will not be extremely opposed. ”
Unexpectedly, her mother's reaction was even more painful than he expected, and she rushed into the ancestral hall in a hurry, and bled her forehead in front of her father's tablet: "I have been sad and sad for all these years, and now it is easy to have a little hope, but you have been led by the evil water (seduced) and made a great scandal!" Let me have what face to see the patriarchs..."
"Mother, don't do this, please." He stopped his mother in annoyance, only to feel that his eyes were gray, and even if he found a loved one, he was doomed to be unable to get rid of the dark clouds and mist he was born with: "For the sake of the child, you will agree, it has been more than half a year, and before long, you will be able to be a grandmother."
"Grandmother? A terrible (iniquity) species, this grandmother does not do it! ”
Suddenly, he only felt a cold chill, and this sentence became a fate that could not be escaped in his lifetime——
He made every effort and rushed to the General's Mansion to ask the General to fulfill his marriage. However, his mother asked the servants to come in a carriage, pretending to be fine, to visit the palace with him and to propose to the general first.
"Xiao'er has admired the three young ladies in the general's mansion for a long time, because he has not made (military) merit before, he is ashamed and does not dare to climb high, and now, "
"Mother!" His eyes widened, but he was stopped by his mother's loving knife-like gaze. The great general had the grace of knowing and promoting him, and he had already regarded him as a father in his heart, and his mother had done evil in public, how could he make the great general lose face.
"Yes, I have always admired and cherished this boy, and it is better to be able to be my husband and wife!" The general smiled and agreed, and the clouds that had accumulated on his mother's head for more than ten years all rushed to him, and after that, they followed him like shadows.
His heavy footsteps were like lead, and he finally walked back to the house, trying to comfort her, but a servant woman quietly came from under the porch: "Young master, Ah Man let me tell you that the child is gone, in order not to hurt the past, in the future... Don't meet. ”
He slumped to the ground in despair, tears falling into the shadows of the black clouds, condensing into ice, cone piercing.
Time is like water, constantly pouring into his clouds and fog, converging into a happy life that others envy and himself is tired of.
The third lady under the general's knees, her disposition is not as gentle as her father's, is a beautiful and arrogant woman, before she got married, she should have done an early investigation, she knew the affairs of the palace very well, and she was in charge of the mansion within a few days of marriage. The only thing that cannot be manipulated is that the husband's mood is always low.
Because she was beautiful and clever, and she strived to be self-motivated, and more importantly, the family would help her husband to become a knight, and her mother was very satisfied with her, almost to the point of flattery. When she inquired before, she knew that her husband and the maid had a private affair, but she thought that it was just a wind (flow) thing when she was young, and most of the people in the world liked the new and tired of the old, so she did not go too far to her heart, how did she expect that her husband had been depressed, she was alert, and asked her mother-in-law for the details of this matter.
In order to make her daughter-in-law happy, the mother-in-law praised her as a heavenly immortal, trampled Ah Man as a demon (female), and described the details of the (hook) in addition to the oil and vinegar to show the innocence of her son (even if she did not add oil and vinegar, when the young lady heard that her husband was willing to marry a maid, she was already angry. After a long talk between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, they made a decision that it was still inappropriate to put the "demon. The woman "threw herself out of the house, lest she and her family divulge the past and affect the reputation of her son/husband."
"Stay, stay in the house and do the dirtiest work, you will never see it."
"How about letting her clean up horse dung?" In this way, even if they meet, I am afraid that I will not recognize it. ”
"Well, it's good. If she can't think about it, it's better to cut it off on her own. ”
Before he knew all this, he received orders to go to the battlefield to fight. For three years, only by letters to know the situation in the family, the lady added the little young master, the emperor rewarded the new mansion, and the old lady and the lady sealed the commandments... The woman he cared about most naturally did not say a word.
Finally, after returning to the dynasty in victory, the butler waited haggard at the city gate, looking at him worriedly: "General, you, don't be too sad."
"What happened?" He raised an eyebrow and asked, and the black cloud that had been dragging behind him spread overhead.
"Little Young Master, after he fell... Died of illness. ”
"What! A child who is only two years old should be able to take good care of him, how can he fall so hard?"
"That day the little young master cried and wanted to ride a horse, and the old lady was very distressed, so she promised to let him ride for a little while, who knew that the horse was frightened... We wanted to rush in to save it, but we didn't react at all, more than a dozen horses trampled together, and Ah Man was trampled to death at that time. ”
"Ah man she... Dead?" His voice was slow, as if a long time had passed, and he was silent for a long time, and he said dryly, "Why is she in the stable?"
"Didn't Ah Man clean up horse dung all the time?" The butler looked at his gray face and did not dare to squeak again.
*
"It's all Ah Man's slut, it's she who startled the horse and retaliated against us!" The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law unified their voices and cried bitterly at him.
Facing the two women crying and crying, he took a deep breath: "Where is she buried?" I'm going to go to the warlock and seal her coffin. ”
"Yes yes yes, that's it! Lest her ghost take revenge again! The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law agreed not to repeat it, but they did not see the tears in the corners of his eyes.
He asked the warlock for a spell, half of which burned to ashes at her grave, and the other half, which was sealed in his heart: "Ah Man, I'm sorry, you must be in a lot of pain, very painful."
When the mother arrived, she only saw the ashes of the grave, and thought that he had cast a spell, so she breathed a sigh of relief: "Don't be sad with yourself, go and comfort your mother, and add a grandson to your mother."
"Mother, didn't you say, 'This grandmother can't do it?'
"What nonsense are you talking about! I mean don't recognize the sin," she said, "and finally she stopped speaking in her heart.
"I was just wondering, there are spells in the human world, but what about Hades, will there be more powerful curses?" You should be prepared for something..."
Lonely and dusty, he swung his sleeves, brushed away the misty illusion, and walked toward the abandoned horse shed. The blood on the ground was already black, and the general turned his head sideways in fear.
"You actually know the truth." Lonely and Dustless sighed: "The horses were frightened, and she rushed in to protect the young child under her, killing her on the spot." In order not to let you miss her, she made up a vicious lie, and she failed to save the 'little family owner' anyway, and she deserved to be buried. ”
Lonely and dusty looked back at him, but saw him tightly covering his ears: "I don't want to unravel the misunderstanding, I'm afraid that if I unravel it, I won't be able to meet her again in the next life." ”
"In fact, on the day I first met, I drank the bowl of hot soup to warm my body and heart, and I have become one with her. She was always with me. ”
"I know that she is in pain, she is afraid, and she does not want to entangle with me anymore, so I ask you for help to solve this misunderstanding." He opened the amulet hanging from his heart and took out the half of the spell, and the spell spontaneously combusted without fire, and burned into a faint flame in front of the placket.
A beam of ghosts flew like the wind and pounced on his chest, as if they were twenty years ago, vowing to die to protect.
"I know that you still don't want me and are still waiting for me..."
