I'm a Melancholic Guest in the World
[Azure Narration]
I rushed into the battlefield without hesitation.
She struggled slightly, and her black hair fell from her back.
I heard my voice low and broken. "Give me…a child, okay?”
After a while, I felt Su Yu's strangeness. It turned out that she was suppressing her tears.
Once again, I let go of her and lay on the couch, slowly pulling her into my arms from behind.
I whispered,"Su Yu, don't cry." I'm sorry, don't cry."
"It's not your fault…" Su Yu said intermittently.
I leaned against her back and sighed softly." But I always seem to have a way to make you cry…I'm sorry…"
Those sorrows and pains, tears and sighs, will forever exist in our lives.
You can cry whenever you want. After crying, let's live on together.
At that time, I thought that there were still many unknown choices in Su Yu's future.
I thought, it doesn't matter, I'll always be here. She was tired and sad, but she could always come back.
After we got married, the two Qionghua Sect clothes were kept in the bottom of the box. We were very rational not to touch the exciting memories.
Su Yu initially wanted to comb her hair into a woman's hairstyle. I said that I liked your waterfall-like hair and that I wasn't used to it after changing it, so she gave up.
I changed into a blue cotton robe while she wore a white linen robe. Her otherworldly temperament did not decrease at all. No matter how you looked at it, she looked like an ice fairy who had entered the mortal world.
We had nothing to do, and there was no place on the mountain suitable for wasteland reclamation. Sometimes, we would go down the mountain for a walk and do some chivalrous deeds. We would also collect some small gifts as wine money. But you know, if a person doesn't have a common face, it's a very troublesome thing. After a while, he became famous among the people, which really made us worry about whether Qionghua Sect would discover his whereabouts.
Moreover, we often help the Taiping villagers indirectly. If they find out that I did it, the group of chaste martyrs led by the village chief might throw themselves into the lake.
So we had no choice but to change our interests. We started to feed the fish in the stream, grow all kinds of flowers, raise little tiger Elsa, build treehouses, walk around geckos…We did too much, so much that I couldn't remember what we did. In short, with one more person accompanying me, everything I do is enjoyable and enjoyable.
When I was young, I also yearned for the saying," A great hero serves the country and the people." However, the older I am, the more narrow-minded I am. I am so narrow-minded that I can only accommodate myself and Su Yu. Things like saving the people from fire and water might be more suitable for my son to do.
Most of the time, I was still very free, mainly because I was smart and learned everything quickly. I was good at housework, needlework, digging, and digging. Therefore, I could spare a lot of time to lie on the tree with my clothes half off and drink. Sometimes, when I was in a good mood, I would sing.
Often at this time, Su Yu would sit quietly under the tree, or sit on a nearby branch, smiling and listening to me talk about acting like a literary youth.
Once, she said,"I haven't read a poem in a long time. Why don't you read a few lines for me?"”
In an instant, I recalled Xiaoyu's words in Luoyang's tavern."I like to hear people recite poems. Brother Yun, can you teach me in the future?”
The flowers in the forest withered, sighing that life was too rushed, and in the end, he didn't have time to teach her anything.
I poured a mouthful of wine and gently kissed her ear. I chuckled."What do you want to hear? Is it the spring tide that brings rain late and urgent, a pear tree pressing down on the begonia? Or is it a branch of red apricot out of the wall, the door of the tent opened for you?”
Su Yu blushed and avoided my lips and teeth, shaking her head with a faint smile."You only know how to put together a few flirtatious lines…"
I pulled her hand over and kissed her palm, smiling."How is this a dirty line? You're thinking too much…Haha!"
This was the basic tone of life, plain fun and warm enjoyment.
Ah, right, there's something I forgot to tell you. She calls me Tianqing.

[Ghost Realm Small Fish Narration]
In the blink of an eye, another seven years had passed since he arrived at the Ghost Realm.
I still remember when I first arrived, I stood by the Bridge of Helplessness and watched a beautiful girl expressionlessly pour soup into the souls. I was really surprised for a long time.
When he came to me, he asked,"Are you Meng Po's granddaughter?"
The girl rolled her eyes at me,"I am Meng Po!"”
I looked her up and down in disbelief."There's nothing about you that can be called 'mother'.”
The girl waved her hand.”
I held the bowl and muttered,"Drink this…and you'll forget everything in this life, right?"”
The girl glanced at me from the corner of her eyes. You're living too comfortably in this life, and you're planning to cling on to it?”
The ghosts behind me started to urge me. I made up my mind and returned the bowl to Meng Po."I'm not drinking."
The young girl lazily pointed to a flat ground under the bridge."If you don't want to drink, stand over there and don't block the way.”
After setting a precedent for me, the people behind me asked,"Can I not drink this? Can I? Can I?"
The girl crossed her arms in front of her chest and said indifferently,"Sure, and then stay in the City of Vain Deaths for 500 years.”
Everyone looked at each other and drank the wine in one gulp.
I was staring at the River of Forgetfulness under the bridge for a long time. Meng Po, who had nothing better to do, bounced over and pressed her hand on my forehead. She quickly shook her hand and said disdainfully,"You're still so old-fashioned. You just can't bear to part with a man…"
I nodded.”
She looked at me and said,"But you rarely see him. That man clearly loves someone else, and you're still waiting here. You're really wasting your time." Think about it, 500 years ~ how many lives could he experience again!”
I said,"There's not much meaning in the human world.”
She shook her head and walked onto the Bridge of Helplessness. She continued to boil her soup and muttered,""Another crazy lover…"
After spending some time together, one day, I hugged my legs and sat by the river. Suddenly, I said,"I miss him so much."
She didn't intend to tell anyone, but Meng Po came over with interest and said,""Then let's go and see him ~"
I shook my head.”
Meng Po said," People like you are not allowed to go to the human world to cause trouble. I'm asking you to go and look at the Netherworld Water Mirror. Think about that person's appearance and you will be able to see his situation in the human world."”
I looked up and asked,"Where is that mirror?"”
Meng Po said,"Those who need reservation tickets. I happen to have a few here. Do you want one for 150 Underworld coins?"”(There will be repercussions from fighting…Please forgive me.)
I said,"So you're also a part-time scalper."”
From then on, the days in the ghost realm were no longer boring. Money could make the ghost turn the millstone. Even in the World of Spirits and Souls, there are still many opportunities to work. I used all the money I earned to exchange for a Water Mirror appointment ticket.
I saw that their life was very harmonious at the beginning, but then Su Yu's body began to show signs of relapse and gradually weakened. Tian Qing tried all kinds of ways to help her get rid of the cold. He had exhausted most of the Genuine Qi in his body, but he could no longer exchange it for her safety.
Su Yu became very afraid of the cold. There was a charcoal fire in the house all year round, but she still often hugged herself. She even seemed to have lost the strength to exercise. When Tian Qing wanted to transfer zhenqi to her, she rejected him.
Tianqing could only use the most primitive treatment method. He lay beside her and hugged her tightly, their fingers interlocked.
Slowly, Tianqing would feel at ease in this position, and his breathing would be steady and long.
Meng Po joined in the fun and did not forget to comment,""You definitely don't know this, but men are naturally resistant to cold bodies, even if the woman is as beautiful as a fairy.”
I couldn't help but ask her why.
"You know how friction creates heat, right? If the friction still doesn't produce heat, a man's desire won't burn either ~"
I silently looked up at the sky, feeling that this young girl Meng Po who was used to seeing the world was really not an ordinary person without blood or tears.
As I looked at Tianqing's sleeping face, I thought about Meng Po's infectious speech. Perhaps through the so-called sex, he could really warm up his body…?
If that was the case, at least Azure would have thought of this…
Could it be that the cold body really had the effect of dispelling desire?
I didn't answer this question because I wasn't a roundworm in Tian Qing's stomach. However, Su Yu came to the Ghost Realm later and I asked her why she was willing to marry Tian Qing. She said indifferently,"He doesn't have fame and fortune in his heart, and fame and fortune can't touch him. He had no desire in his heart, and desire could not confuse him. He was not hostile to anyone, so he was invincible in the world.”
Her expression gradually became distant.
"I also thought he was a piece of rotten wood that didn't want to improve, but later I realized that I was wrong. She spent the rest of her days with him, observing his words and actions. Only then did she know that he was a talented person who was affectionate and righteous and knew how to respect life. Although he had pain in his heart, he did not want others to do to him what he did not want others to do to him. He did not seem to be weak or depressed because of this. Such a carefree state of mind is in line with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, so I…"
"I owe him a lot."
I couldn't understand everything she said, but I vaguely felt that it made sense. Tianqing had always been so frivolous. In fact, he had been too open-minded, so much so that his desires and what he wanted might really only be a little bit.
At first, Tian Qing was very alert and could not sleep deeply at night. Because as long as Su Yu moved, he would immediately wake up, cover her with a blanket, and add charcoal to the fire. Gradually, Su Yu developed the habit of sleeping without moving. Meng Po was amused by it and said that it looked more like a corpse. What made her even more amused was that Tian Qing, who was hugging the " corpse ", could actually sleep soundly.
Su Yu's head was leaning against Tianqing's neck, pressing against his chin, like two children snuggling up to each other in the cold winter.
Due to her constitution, Su Yu had always been a light sleeper. Sometimes, when she woke up in the morning, she would stare at Tian Qing for a long time, gently drawing the outline of his eyebrows, nose, and facial features. She looked so gentle.
This man was so affectionate that she couldn't help but feel sorry for him.
Tianqing looked like he was in a deep sleep, but I suspected that he had been awake the whole time. Because a man who wasn't cunning wouldn't be Yun Tianqing.
One day, Tian Qing went hunting in the forest, but he was absent-minded and absent-minded. At that time, I didn't know what important problem he was thinking about.
If you don't look where you're going, you'll trip over a rock. When he raised his head, my heart turned cold.
He covered his mouth with his hand, and a trickle of blood slowly flowed out from between his fingers.
Meng Po said,"A tooth knocked out is worth making a fuss about."
As soon as he finished speaking, Tian Qing fell to the ground and coughed violently. Soon, the ground was stained with blood.
The more he coughed, the more he couldn't control himself. In the end, he hugged his shoulders tightly and couldn't help but curl up into a ball.
I think of the jade. This appearance made me panic.
The night gradually deepened.
There were light footsteps stepping on the dead leaves, but Tian Qing did not turn around.
Su Yu thought that she had been waiting at home for a long time and did not see anyone come back, so she put on some clothes to look for him.
Su Yu suddenly stopped. I guess she smelled blood or felt something.
Tian Qing maintained his posture, sitting on the ground in a daze.
A moment later, Su Yu slowly walked to Tian Qing's side. She took off her red cloak and covered Tian Qing's body. She did not say anything and just hugged him from behind.
Tian Qing finally trembled slightly. He reached out and grabbed Su Yu's hand tightly, as if it would disappear if he let go.
Su Yu gently leaned her head on his shoulder and said,"Let's go home."
Tian Qing's Adam's apple moved. After a long time, a low voice rolled out of his throat. Sorry…I didn't hit anything.
Su Yu said,"It doesn't matter. I don't eat much."
Tian Qing seemed to have gained strength from her calm words. He helped her stand up and tied the cloak for her again. In an instant, he returned to his indifferent smile and took Su Yu's hand to walk back. Su Yu was like thousands of ordinary wives in the world, gently and obediently walking behind her husband.
Finally, he had a home.
A trace of envy flashed through my heart. He was not envious of Su Yu, but of the two of them.
=====================================================================
P.S. If you read the short paragraph that Little Fish had just described in the beginning of this chapter again, you might find a problem:
That was-
If I could imagine Xiaoyu's tone as Cheng Tianqing's, then the man that Cheng Tianqing couldn't bear to part with was definitely Brother Xiao. My rationality told me that I couldn't continue fantasizing about him, or else this novel would inevitably turn into a fantastical doujinshi…
