  Chapter 546 Homecoming

  Clah—

  The sound of turbulent water came from the well in the corner of the courtyard, as if something was thumping in the well.

   Li Ang walked forward involuntarily, and removed the heavy stone slab that he had placed above the well.

  A wet figure in crimson groom's clothes stood at the bottom of the well, with his head lowered, his hands hanging down naturally, blood dripping continuously along his fingertips.

  The figure murmured.

   "something is missing"

   "precious things"

   "Why can't I remember"

  The voice of bewildered despair echoed in the well wall,

   Li Ang felt a faint chill in his heart, and subconsciously wanted to back away.

  However, the figure at the bottom of the well was one step ahead, suddenly raised his head, and looked at Li Ang.

   That was himself.

Jingle Bell!

  The bell rang suddenly, and Li Ang, who was lying on the bed in the bedroom, opened his eyes, stood up suddenly, panted heavily, and looked around.

   There was a faint morning light outside the window, and the clock hanging on the wall showed that it was already the next morning. Chai Chai was still lying on the bed on the other side of the room, shivering into a ball.

   And on his fingers, there is still a string made of moss.

  Is it a nightmare again?

   Li Ang covered his face with his hands and wiped away a little sweat. Since he came to Li Yuan, this was the second time he had a nightmare.

   Visions without meaning? Or is it the insanity caused by Mosi's invasion of the brain?

  He exhaled slowly, held his breath, and swept his whole body with spiritual consciousness.

  Mosi is still in a dormant state, staying in the original position peacefully, and the progress of the erosion of the brain has not increased-after being shaken by the disgusting Yaoxiang mace last time, Mosi has remained quiet.

  Maybe in the future, we can find an opportunity to make a few more shocks, provided that we don’t arouse the suspicion of the Zhenfu Department.

   Li Ang suppressed his distracting thoughts, thought for a while, and simply got up, went to the study, searched in the dark room, and found the diary he had written when he was first parasitized by Mosi.

  At that time, Li Ang suspected that Mosi was some kind of demon, parasitic in the body, and would subtly affect the mind.

  So I got a diary, recorded my daily physical and mental conditions in Esperanto, and conducted long-term observations to prevent myself from becoming a demon.

   (Esperanto is a man-made language based on the Indo-European language family in the previous life)

   Later, because the anti-malaria strategy presented was effective, Emperor Yu sent guards to protect himself secretly.

   Li Ang was worried that the diary would be discovered, and Mosi was docile, so he canceled the act of writing the diary, and put the diary in the darkroom, permanently sealed.

   Until now.

  He blew the dust off the diary, turned the pages, and silently wrote about the nightmare experience just now. But I couldn't help but start to imagine in my mind, if I really become a monster, how Xuegong and Yuhui will treat me

  ——

  Winter goes to spring, the frost thaws, everything recovers, and the time has come to March in the seventh year of Zaigan.

   During these three months, some small things happened.

  The plague in Yu State was completely pacified, martial law was lifted in various places one after another, and the surplus of medicines produced in the sick workshops was sufficient, and there was enough energy to donate to the princes and nobles of the dependent countries;

  There was a month of heavy snowfall on the border between Jing State and Zhou State, and the weather was extremely cold. The soldiers stationed in the military towns of both sides had to retreat to the deeper inland state capital to reduce the logistical pressure—

   This move was also regarded as a sign of the cancellation of the war among the people, and the people breathed a sigh of relief.

  However, people of insight believe that this is just a delay. A large amount of military supplies are still being shipped to the border, waiting for the time to come.

   As for Leon

   Bang lang, lang lang.

  Accompanied by the regular sound of the train wheels rolling over the rails, he sat on the soft bench in the train box, looking out the window at the rapidly receding pastoral scene.

   This train is heading towards Lingnan, passing through Yunzhou, Li Ang's hometown.

   "Master."

  The palm was gently held, Li Ang turned his head, and saw Chai Chai's expression of a little homely.

  Before they knew it, it had been four years since they left Ganzhou. Recalling the appearance of leaving Weizhou City in a carriage, it seems like a lifetime away.

"It's fine."

  He smiled and patted the back of Chai Chai's hand, stood up, walked out of the box to the train corridor, and relieved his muscles and bones.

  The sound of babies crying came from the box in front of the train. Song Shaoyuan and You Xiao, who were parents for the first time, hurriedly wrapped their daughter in diapers.

  Aunt Song, who was sitting by the side, rolled her eyes when she saw their clumsy movements, grabbed the diaper, and replaced it. Then put his hands on his hips and taught the young couple a lesson.

   The reprimand could be heard through the wooden door.

   "You also come out to breathe?"

  A crisp voice sounded from behind, Li Ang turned around, and saw Ji Linglang holding a scroll in her hand, leaning against the wooden door of the box, looking at herself with a smile.

"Um."

   Li Ang nodded.

  In the past three months, he has been keeping a diary to ensure that his mind has not changed. By the way, I recorded all my dreams and discussed them with Lu Yunan, but unfortunately I didn't get any useful results.

   Just as Ching Ming Festival is approaching, the school has a seven-day holiday for the students to go home to worship their ancestors.

  Li Ang took this opportunity to buy a ticket to Yunzhou.

  In addition to sweeping graves and offering sacrifices to ancestors, he also had to go back to his hometown to see what happened to the well that had appeared in his dreams many times.

  As for the four members of Song Shaoyuan's family and Ji Linglang, they all returned to Weizhou—the Lingqi locomotive greatly facilitated people's travel, even for monks.

  Li Ang went back to the box and greeted Chai Chai, and the three of them came to the rear of the car together, looking at the scenery of mountains and rivers, and chatting about recent interesting things.

  Ji Linglang asked: "So how about that novel of yours, Cuiqiao?"

   "It's okay."

Chai Chai, who was exposed by Li Leling and the others because they secretly wrote a novel in Xuegong Zangshuge, scratched his head, and said cheerfully: "Now it is the number one in Lanling News' readers' favorite list this month. "

  Ji Linglang said: "So powerful? I remember that the author named Jin Jiang was the number one before?"

   "Mmm, Mrs. Jinjiang has been in office for thirteen months. Now it's because the old book has been finished for half a year, and there has been no news. That's why I succeeded in stealing the chicken."

  As soon as we talked about this, Chai Chai couldn't help but smirk again, "It would be great if I could meet Teacher Jin Jiang. If she starts writing a new book, she must be ten thousand times better than me."

  She has no time to write these days.

   Li Ang said silently in his heart, propping up the mind power barrier with his hands to block the falling fine rain.

  Jinjiang is actually Lu Yunan. When she came to Chang'an and found out about the existence of Lanling News, she wanted to make some extra money by writing books to buy winter clothes for her clansmen.

   Unexpectedly, this pseudonym became an instant hit, and her income even exceeded the goods she brought from Montenegro. Make her dumbfounded.

  Boom!

  Accompanied by the rolling thunder, the pattering rain in the sky continued to increase, and the vehicle also drove into Luzhou Station and stopped slowly.

  The three of them returned to the carriage, only to see a staff member wearing a uniform with the words Luzhou Station boarding the train and shouting: "Every passenger, please get off the train! The road ahead cannot be walked!"
