… …
Early in the morning, rays of light that were like golden silk sprinkled onto a courtyard filled with red leaves. A woman wearing a beautiful dress slowly walked into the courtyard.
In the courtyard, a young and energetic woman was holding a broom and sweeping the leaves. Her eyes were covered with a green and red ribbon. She was clearly a blind woman.
"Did I go to the wrong door?" The blind woman looked outside the door.
She didn't know why, but she clearly couldn't see anything, but she felt a faintly glowing silhouette. This silhouette was graceful and delicate. She could even smell the fragrance emitted from her body. It was better than the flowers after the spring rain.
"Xiu Yuqing?" The woman in front of the door asked.
"Yes, yes …" The blind woman was stunned for a moment. After a moment, she used a voice that she could hear and said, "It's been a long time since someone called me by this name …"
"You've taken good care of your little courtyard." The woman walked in slowly and looked around.
"I used my free time to plant some things that I like. Although I can't see how they are blooming, the fragrance is enough." Xiu Yuqing replied. After saying this, she paused for a moment before asking, "You are … My family passed away early on, and there is no one in my hometown who remembers me as a traitor. Are you here to take me back and expose me to the public? I shouldn't have taken those girls who had the same experience as me away from there. You want to punish me, right?"
"No, I have nothing to do with your hometown. Oh right, have you seen these flowers that you planted? They are very beautiful. "The woman walked back and forth in the courtyard, admiring the star-like flowers.
"No, I can't see …" Xiu Yuqing said.
As she said that, Xiu Yuqing felt this uninvited guest walk up behind her. Moreover, she was very close to her. The fragrance permeated the air like countless flowers intoxicating people. She felt a gentle hand at the back of her head. This hand was untying the ribbon that was binding her eyes.
The ribbon slowly floated down. What entered her eyes was brilliant sunlight. It was the same as what she saw when she was young. It was a riot of colors …
Following that, she saw the star-like flowers in the courtyard. Although they weren't planted very neatly, they had a wild and natural beauty. They were colorful and blooming more romantic than she had imagined.
Xiu Yuqing was in disbelief.
She was even shocked by the scene before her eyes. Her entire heart was about to melt into the blooming flowers in the morning light …
It turned out that he had been living in such a beautiful little house all this time. The flowers that he had been so worried about and carefully cared for were so exquisite!
She immersed herself in it for a long time.
It was inconceivable and extremely joyful.
She turned around and looked at the person who was undoing her scarf …
At this moment, she once again felt the beauty that struck her soul. Everything just now could not compare to this peerless face.
"I … I can see now?" Xiu Yuqing said.
"You will be able to see it in the future." The beautiful woman said.
"But not long ago, the doctor told me that my condition was very bad. Because at that time, when the people of my homeland carried out the blind torture on me, they left me with an illness. They even said that I might not live …" Suddenly, Xiu Yuqing realized something.
Xiu Yuqing turned her head abruptly and looked into the room.
Outside the bamboo window, a woman was lying peacefully in the morning light. That woman looked exactly the same as her.
Xiu Yuqing quickly lowered her head to look at herself. She discovered that the morning light was passing through her body. Her body was somewhat illusory …
"I … am I dead??" Xiu Yuqing came back to her senses. She was clearly not the kind of person who would be blinded by the things around her. She calmed down. She did not reveal any sadness, only a bit astonished.
"Mn." The beautiful woman in the morning light nodded.
"Then you are …"
"I am the person who came to take you away."
"Ah?? Rumor has it that after a person dies, isn't it Ox-Head and Horse-Face who take away their soul? How could it be someone as beautiful as you? "Xiu Yuqing asked in confusion.
"Only those with filthy hearts are taken away by Ox-Head and Horse-Face. However, Ox-Head and Horse-Face are also Gods. They live beside us. They might be your neighbors, or someone you met by chance." The woman said calmly.
"So you are the legendary Death God?" Xiu Yuqing asked.
"I am in charge of the lifespan of the living. Using the common saying, I should be a Judge of Life and Death. After most people die, they are taken away by Ghost Envoys. A portion of them are taken away by Ox-Head and Horse-Face. However, for some special people like you, I will personally come. "The woman said with a gentle tone.
This tone was very comfortable, like a very loving big sister. Even though she knew she had already left the world of the living, Xiu Yuqing did not feel afraid.
"Is that so? Then where are we going?" Xiu Yuqing continued to ask.
"Everyone will ask for some time from me. After all, everyone has regrets in their hearts. I can give you two days to let you explain to the people close to you. Of course, you cannot tell anyone that you have seen me. You also cannot mention that you are someone who has left the world of the living … "The woman said.
When Xiu Yuqing heard this, she did not know why, but four words appeared in her mind.
The final radiance of the setting sun.
This was why some people who looked like they were about to die would suddenly be in a good state. They ate well, drank well, told this and told that … and then suddenly die a few days later.
"No need. Although I have worries, I do not have any regrets." Xiu Yuqing shook her head.
As he spoke, the sound of footsteps came from outside the house. A person wearing hard boots quickly walked into the courtyard.
He clearly could not see Xiu Yuqing's soul, nor could he see the goddess.
He was carrying a bag of hot breakfast. It was all fragrant soy milk.
"Why didn't you close the door? It is so dangerous for a girl to be like this." The man complained, but still walked into the house.
The man tidied up his clothes, then used his hand to lightly knock on the door.
"Lady Xiu, I brought you breakfast. There is your favorite soy milk. After eating, you must follow the doctor's instructions and drink the medicine." The man said softly, afraid of waking the woman up.
"Yuqing, are you awake?"
"Yu?? I am Ling Song. Is your condition better today?? "
"Yu, please!"
Ling Song realized that something was wrong. He hurriedly went to the other side. Through the bamboo window, he saw Xiu Yuqing lying on the bed quietly. Her face was slightly pale. It was not bad, but she was no longer breathing.
Naturally, Ling Song could feel it. He hurriedly rushed into the house.
Although he had strong senses and could easily know if a person was still breathing, he still did not dare to believe it. He reached out his hand and placed it under Xiu Yuqing's nose …
Ling Song's hand was frozen under her nose. The breakfast in his other hand slipped down and spilled on the ground in front of the window.
He was stunned. His face slowly changed from shock and panic to pain. However, the pain did not last for long. He showed a kind of anger that was gnashing his teeth!!
"Why!!!"
"Why did God do this to you!!!"
"Which bastard ghost took your soul away? I, Ling Song, will definitely take it back for you!"
"Wait for me, Yuqing, wait for me. There is nothing in this world that I, Ling Song, cannot take back!"
"No one can take you away. No one can!"
