Chapter 180 - Yearning for Death (1/2)

Mo Kun said with a smile, “Later on, the prince and the princess will live a happy life there. Fairy tales are not all fake!”

Long Xi nodded. If only she could live with Mo Kun, it didn’t matter where they lived!

“Ya… ya…” A crying of crow was heard, which shocked Long Xi badly. She looked over carefully, finding a crow standing on a stone pillar in front of the gate. It stared at them with its bright eyes.

Long Xi was terrified by the gloomy cry! Was it preventing them from entering?

Mo Kun held her hand and said, “Don’t be afraid. You have me here.”

“Em.” Long Xi was gradually reassured.

As soon as they walked in, no imaginary hall was shown in their eyes, but a twisted corridor was revealed in front of them.

They walked along the long corridor without lights, finding a large oil painting at the end. There was a crystal lamp above the painting turned up.

The characters in the painting turned out to be two Qiuzi. One had long hair and was dressed in a kimono. She was sitting on a swing with a smile. The other Qiuzi was pushing the swing. She was angry and had short hair, which was similar to Cheng Yimei’s hairstyle when she received her death sentence and execution. She was dressed in prisoner clothes of Z Country. Perhaps, one of them was Qiuzi, while the other was Cheng Yimei.

Long Xi was really shocked!

“Don’t be afraid. You have me here! I will not allow anyone to hurt you!” Mo Kun said as firmly as before.

“Stay!” The Qiuzi who dressed in prisoner clothes in the painting started to say, which dragged Long Xi’s reassured heart up to her throat again.

She was stunned and then screamed, “Ah!”

Mo Kun heard Long Xi’s screaming and hurried to turn around and hold Long Xi, who was trembling with hands wrapped on her head while she stared at the oil painting. He asked, “Xixi, what happened?”

“That painting… that painting…” Long Xi’s thoughts were in disarray.

“Painting?” Mo Kun looked at the oil painting.

“The Qiuzi in the painting… is speaking!” Long Xi finally found suitable words to express her meaning.

“Ah?” Mo Kun looked at her with confusion and said, “This is just an ordinary oil painting! I don’t see what you’re describing. Were you frightened by an illusion?!”

“No! It was real! I really heard it…”

“Stay here with me…” Before Long Xi finished his words, the voice was raised again, but Mo Kun seemed to hear nothing.

“Listen!” Long Xi hurriedly pulled Mo Kun and shouted, “We… we should get out at once!”

She took Mo Kun’s hand and walked quickly towards the gate.

Long Xi was afraid that ghosts would catch up with them, so she sped up and gradually started to run. When she saw the light in distance becoming brighter, the two were stunned and stopped.

“This…” The two stood in front of the large oil painting and were completely stunned.

They had returned to the oil painting again!

They had simply walked towards the direction of the gate!

“Ah! This is… Brother Kun, we can’t get out!” Long Xi frowned and held Mo Kun’s hand even tighter without noticing.

“Haha, stay with us!” Mo Kun suddenly said with Qiuzi’s voice. Long Xi immediately released Mo Kun’s hand. She became more and more uneasy.

Only Qiuzi’s laughter was heard in the empty building, echoing along the rotating ladder. That laughter was melodious but gloomy.

“You? Who are you?” Long Xi asked Mo Kun, with a trembling voice.

Mo Kun did not answer and immersed himself into the oil painting all of a sudden.

Right after, another person showed up in the oil painting. It was Mo Kun, who was holding a camera to take pictures for the two Qiuzi.

“Ah…” Long Xi ran out crazily. No matter how hard she ran, she would return to the original place.

“Stay with us!” This time, Mo Kun started to say something in the oil painting.

He said with a highly tempting tone to Long Xi, “Stay here. We will live a happy life generation after generation. We won’t die! If you leave, I will stay with them forever!”

Long Xi was hesitant. Staying there to live with him from generation to generation.

“No, this is not real! This is a dream! You should face reality. Long Xi! Long Xi! Wake up!” A light calling voice came out from the bottom of Long Xi’s mind.

When she opened her eyes again, Long Xi thought she was still on the snow covered ground, surrounded by a white background.

Yan Wangchuan, dressed in a white shirt sat by her side with blood red eyes.

When she finally recovered, she found she was in a ward.

White sheets, white walls, and white people!

A smell of disinfectant fluid was spread in the air.

Yan Wangchuan turned around and hoped she didn’t see his tears.

Long Xi suddenly felt ashamed when looking at his shivering back like the leaves in the wind! A person only had one life, so how could she treat it so rashly?

Yan Wangchuan did not blame her and press the bell to call for the doctor. Then, he gave her some water.

She was really thirsty and her lips were a bit chapped!

After she drank water, Yan Wangchuan used a cotton swab to dip some clean water and skillfully apply it to her lips.
