[R18] Quickly wear it【Pillow jade and taste vermilion】 – “Quickly Traveling [Pillow on Jade and Taste Vermilion]” By the Wangchuan River·Two Life Flowers [Nineteen] (First update) [English]
byAfter tossing and turning for several days, even with Xiu Xiu’s company, Li Xin still couldn’t untie the knot in her heart.
After thinking about it, she finally compromised with herself and planned to go back to Lijiacun again.
After all, he was in Beifeng and not going to the human world during the Ghost Festival. Li Xin went to find the Ghost King and explained his thoughts with an uneasy mood.
“You can go if you want without asking me.”
He was holding a wooden block as thick as his wrist and a small carving knife in his hand, and he was carving something on the wooden block.
Hearing Li Xin’s words, he replied without raising his head.
Li Xin blinked and his eyes quickly glanced at the object in his hand:
“I know, I just don’t understand what the taboos are, so I’ll ask.”
The Ghost King gently blew away the carved wood chips and said calmly:
“When you come back before the rooster crows, you are not allowed to harm mortals, and you are not allowed to show your true identity, that’s all.”
It’s much simpler than Li Xin thought.
She breathed a sigh of relief and was in a good mood, with a smile on her face unconsciously:
“Thank you, I won’t disturb you anymore.”
Saying that, he was about to leave.
“Wait a minute,”
The Ghost King suddenly called her, stood up and gave her a wooden sign.
“Bring this with you.”
The wooden plaque was somewhat similar to the one in Xiuxiu’s hand, but the runes engraved on it were different. Li Xin took it over and asked curiously:
“Is this the wooden sign of Hui Beifeng?”
The Ghost King glanced at her and chuckled:
“It’s for self-defense. You’ve practiced so far. If you can’t even return to Beifeng, there’s no need to go to the mortal world.”
Although there was some sarcasm in he’s words, I don’t know if it was due to the tone, but it didn’t sound irritating.
Li Xin snorted, put away the wooden sign, and left without bothering to talk to him anymore.
The ghost king then watched her go away.
After she had completely disappeared, he sat down again with a frown, picked up the carving knife, and carefully carved on the wood block.

As soon as it got dark, Li Xin set out.
Going to Lijia Village was just a thought, so She Tete waited outside the village for a while, observing how Lijia Village today is different from the past.
When she was young, the villagers here were self-sufficient, living and working in peace and contentment, and they no longer closed their doors at night.
Now, there are only a few families in the village, their clothes are shabby, their expressions are tired and old, and they are no longer what they used to be.
Li Xin felt sour in her heart when she saw it, but there was nothing she could do.
It’s late at night and midnight has arrived.
The people in the village extinguished their candles, and everything was dark except for the bright moonlight, which illuminated the paths in the village.
Li Xin set foot on familiar land.
Compared to the rush last time, she had plenty of time tonight and took a closer look at this place almost greedily. What came to mind was every moment she had spent here.
She walked around the alley, remembering the little beggar from before, and subconsciously took another look.
Empty.
I don’t know if he was dragged away dead or if he was alive and left on his own.
It has nothing to do with her.
Li Xin shook his head and continued walking forward.
The second time she stepped into the dilapidated courtyard, she felt less sad and more disappointed.
She stretched out her hand and stroked the rough body of the locust tree, and the laughter from that time seemed to reappear in her ears.
She stopped for a moment and walked towards the small house with half of it collapsed.
I think there have been several owners here. The furnishings in the house are so dilapidated that they can no longer be seen. The ground is littered with gravel, collapsed and rotten beams, and a thick layer of dust is covered with casual touches.
She touched the bedroom of the past based on her impression.
If I remember correctly, there was a loose floor tile in the corner of the bedroom, and her father helped her make a small treasure box for her to put her “treasure”.
Gen: If nothing unexpected happens, there will be choices tonight ~ I have read all the guesses below, hehe, but I won’t spoil them now (akimbo)
