I opened my eyes that were tightly shut because of fear, and raised my head. What met his eyes was Chen Ran's, and he pounced on me one by one, both of his hands supporting the ground as he blocked the heavy blow for me. His eyes were wide open, the veins in the corner of his eyes were popping out, and blood was flowing out from the top of his head.
Chen Ran took the fatal blow for me. I saw the light in his eyes flicker and darken, and blood dripped from the corner of his mouth. His blood dripped onto my clothes.
I felt that the air in my entire body had frozen over in an instant, and I couldn't even catch my breath. I didn't think that Chen Ran would even disregard his own life for me, but I had always felt that our relationship hadn't reached this stage yet, and I had never thought that he would actually already have such deep feelings for me.
Su Ye and Luo Li were crying their hearts out in the cupboard, I only had one thought, I grabbed onto the killer's leg and didn't want him to go to the cabinet. He turned his head mechanically, looked at me without any emotion in his eyes, raised his right hand and swung the wooden stick at me, I felt a sharp pain in my head, my head was buzzing from the pain, at that moment, the Psychic Jade on my neck seemed to sense that its owner was in danger, it emitted light, I felt that the wounds on my body were slowly healing, the pain on my head also disappeared.
Suddenly, there was a flash of black light and the assassin was sent flying into the wall and then bounced back onto the ground. He struggled to get up and used his fingers to scratch a bloody wound on the ground.
I looked at the person in front of me, dressed in a black suit, with a wild and untamed face, and looked at Bai Jing, not knowing what to say. Bai Jing looked at me, who was covered in blood, and flames of anger burned in the corner of his eyes.
I watched as the dying Chen Ran supported his body and leaned on me, "Why did you block it for me? I won't die, at most, it will only hurt for a while, but you will die."
I always thought that my life would always be dark and gloomy, but when I met you later on, you would feel sorry for me. You were the first person who said that you would protect me, and even though it was only a short 20 years, I have already experienced all the hardships I need to experience. Before, I could only bring calamity to others, but this time, I hope that I can protect the person I want to protect. 's mouth continued to spew out fresh blood, and his breathing was getting weaker and weaker. I could feel that he was trying his best to speak to me.
"Don't say anything, just keep your strength hidden. I can definitely save you, I definitely can." I cried as I looked at Bai Jing, "You definitely have a way, right?"
Bai Jing bent down to take Chen Ran's pulse, his eyes were filled with suspicions, "His life force is disappearing bit by bit, and he is no longer capable of doing anything, but logically speaking, this little blow should not have cost him his life."
"What do you mean dying? There must be a way." My hands trembled as I took out the Hemostasis Curse and chanted an incantation. I felt the extreme fear in my heart and chanted the incantation three times, but it wasn't the right incantation. I tried my best to restrain myself and finally succeeded, the wound stopped bleeding, but Chen Ran's face still became pale little by little.
"How could this be?" I helplessly looked at Bai Jing. A book appeared out of nowhere in Bai Jing's hand. I saw strange and complex patterns on the ancient book, and I saw the words "Book of Life and Death" written on the cover.
Bai Jing swept a glance at the Book of Life and Death, then fixedly looked at Chen Ran, and let out a last sigh, "His life is over, and his name has already appeared on the Book of Death. Bai Jing's words were like an ice-cold hammer striking my heart time and time again.
I have never liked owing his life to others, but Chen Ran owed him a life, and just as Bai Jing said, I was indeed very hungry, his life is going to end today, and even if nothing happened today, he would still die because of other things, but in the end, he still died because of me.
Chen Ran suddenly spat out another mouthful of blood, and his eyes started to shine again, and it was getting brighter and brighter, but I felt my heart turn cold, and it was as if the light had returned to him, I really couldn't do anything.
I don't regret it at all. I know that even if I become a ghost, I can still see you, right? So you don't have to be so sad. Then, the light in Chen Ran's eyes dimmed and he closed his eyes. There was no longer any trace of light.
Then, I saw his soul slowly leaving his body. Chen Ran stood in front of me, looked at his own body, and let out a relieved smile. I gently put down his corpse and he looked at me.
"Originally, there were a lot of provocative words to say, but I didn't expect that after saying so many corny words just now, I would meet you again right after dying as a hero. It really is a romantic opportunity." Chen Ran's face was filled with helplessness. I couldn't laugh, and my heart felt heavier and heavier.
"Take me to the Road to River Styx. You said that you would be my companion on the way. Being able to accompany you like this is the most satisfying result for me."
I looked at him.
Bai Jing didn't say anything and just followed me silently. He activated the formation, and when he opened his eyes again, we were already in the yellow sands of the eight hundred li of the Yellow Springs.
We walked like this, without saying a word, it was quiet, after walking past the Forgotten River, and arriving at the Viewing Platform, Chen Ran, however, did not hold back at all, and no longer looked at the mortal world, "What I miss is right beside my voice, this hometown has long lost its meaning for me." His voice was sad.
Beside it was the Stone of Three Lives, each soul that entered the cycle of reincarnation would spend their entire lives by the side of the Stone of Three Lives, judging whether it was right or wrong.
Looking at the scenes that flashed before my eyes like watching a movie, I saw that Chen Ran's entire life had been determined as an ominous thing the moment he was born. Without my mother's love, my father would never be able to avoid them, no one would be willing to play with him, would be bullied since he was young, and he would even have to sleep in fear every night.
When he grew up, he joined the army and experienced life and death, but he was still surrounded by evil spirits. Later on, he left the army and the scene in front of him was the first scene we saw. I wore earphones and closed my eyes.
The scene changed. The murderer swung the wooden stick at me, and without any hesitation, Chen Ran stood in front of me, with the corner of his mouth still showing a trace of a smile.
As I looked at him, I felt as if I had experienced his entire life. Tears streamed down my face and Chen Ran just smiled faintly.
Grandma Meng had already prepared a bowl of Grandma Meng's Soup. "Young man, since you were born in your previous life, and now that you've eaten Grandma Meng's Soup, you'll be able to cut off all traces of your past. Everything you've experienced will just be a dream." Chen Ran hesitated a little as he received Grandma Meng's Soup, "Can I not drink it? I don't want to forget. " Then he gave me a deep look.
Grandma Meng was about to say something when the Stone of Three Lives suddenly emitted a ray of light and sucked Chen Ran's soul in.
