"My sister and I, my parents, let us hide in the cellar outside the village. We watched them be taken away. That was the last time I met my parents and relatives."

The voice of the mountain ghost is very calm.

It was so calm that it was not like telling one's own story.

He said to Chen Qiu:

"I took my sister to the mountains and was helped by the mountain people before I survived. After a few months, the war was over and we went back to see that no one came back. None of the people who were captured came back."

"Then...what is your sister?"

Chen Qiu asked:

"How is she?"

"Dead."

Shan Gui's tone finally fluctuated a little. He held the sword in his hand tightly in the darkness, and he said:

"After the war, there was another plague. My sister was infected with the plague. I wanted to save her, but...but I am not as smart as you, nor as lucky as you. In the end, I still failed..."

Gongsun Yu looked back at Chen Qiu. His eyes were full of silence, and there was no longer the glory that a living person should have. Instead, it was a touch of peace that only a dead person could have.

"Before my sister died, I asked me to live well, go outside the mountains and live in the city."

He said:

"Chen Qiu, you are a smart person. I have never seen many people in my life, nor have I seen someone smarter than you."

"Tell me, should I leave?"

"They are sleeping in this mountain. My sister and my family are here. You said, can I leave them behind?"

Chen Qiu was silent.

He could understand why the mountain ghost suddenly said this to him.

The mountain ghost is explaining.

Explain to him why he and Qingqing could not be escorted to Suzhou.

The mountain ghost is afraid.

He was afraid that Chen Qiu and Qingqing would blame him for this.

It's unreasonable to say he is.

Say he...

Not a friend.

"There are ghosts in this mountain, Chen Qiu."

Gongsun Yu carried the black sword behind him, and he turned around and said to Chen Qiu in a hoarse voice:

"I am walking with the mountain ghost...they are right next to me."

"I am one of them. What they can't do, what they want to do, what I, a person who survived by chance, will do for them!"

"So, sorry, you can only walk on the way to Suzhou."

"Gongsun Yu!"

After the mountain ghost took a few steps, Chen Qiu suddenly shouted:

"I don't blame you, and Qingqing won't blame you. You have great kindness to us, but... there is a little mountain ghost. Her wish before her death is to hope that you can live well."
