Seven Unfortunate Lifetimes Chapter 35 (1/2)

Chapter 35

The cheerful tunes of the river played in my ear. Chu Kong’s chest brought back some memories of warmth; I went back to that day on Fengxuashan manor and lay on bed with the only s.h.i.+fu in that lifetime. Dependent wholeheartedly on him, wholeheartedly trusted and loved him. Those not loving memories unknowingly slowly disappeared.

I reached out and was about to hold Chu Kong’s waist when a familiar figure with a sense of excitement came down from the road.

“Aiya, what am I seeing? Blindly beautiful, oh! Two enemies hugging each other, ah!”

Like someone reckless, I and Chu Kong pushed each other away. We looked with uncertainty.

Yanw.a.n.g who just came back from heaven was wearing a complex robe. He touched his chin. His pair of bright eyes looked between me and Chu Kong. Yanw.a.n.g came back to the netherworld and saw me and Chu Kongh, his mood turned happy.

“Don’t be nervous. I didn’t come to be the little third wheel. You two continue, ah. Just now I saw you two hugging each other. It seemed even your soul will merge together.”

“Who’s who’s soul is merging with her!”

Chu Kong’s roar drummed into my ear.

“Xiaoye……xiaoye just got the cramps! Just the cramps!”

I also roared: “Who wants to hug that thing here! I also just got the cramps!”

“I understand, I understand. I totally understand.”

Yanw.a.n.g smiled cheaply and nodded.

“Youngsters, playing some push and pull is also good.”

This guy watching we playing with our heart’s feeling must feel happy, ah.

I gave him face and didn’t expose him. After all, I and Chu Kong didn’t live for twenty years in the mortal realm, we still need to receive punishment from him……

I didn’t finish thinking when Chu Kong suddenly pulled my shoulder. He stared and me seriously and asked: “Have you already kissed?”

I blinked and stayed quiet. Does…….does this mean he cares about me? Seeing general Kong through the mirror, I sometimes can’t understand his thoughts. Facing with feelings that were hidden in the shadows and now came to the surface, I couldn’t help but feel shy.

While I was still shy to answer, Yanw.a.n.g touched his chin and smiled: “Already kissed, yo.”

The hand on my shoulder tightened. Chu Kong’s face darkened. Yanwnag continued to laugh: “Kissed fiercely.”

The hand pinching my shoulder tightened a little more. He gritted his teeth and said: “Couldn’t you wait for me……”

I……have been waiting for you. Of course, I couldn’t say that. So I only glared at Yanw.a.n.g and asked coldly: “When have I kissed?”

Yanw.a.n.g continued to laugh: “You miss the gentleman everyday in the netherworld. Not seeing the gentleman you became weak. Such feelings made you become thin. You’ve certainly become lighter1. Am I wrong?”

I raised an eyebrow. The hand on my shoulder loosened. I was silent for a while and then I understood that he was playing with us. I clearly saw the veins on Chu Kong’s forehead pop.

“Yanw.a.n.g, you actually dared……”

A red whip swept across Yanw.a.n.g. Yanw.a.n.g dodged and said: “Aiya, aiya, I was wrong. Celestial star Chu Kong really isn’t cute. Just a joke, a joke.”

Yanw.a.n.g was forced to take a few steps back by Chu Kong’s whip. He then stood firmly and smiled: “However, Chu Kong you can see, you have deep feelings for Xiao Xiang Zi. Even your face is green.”

He was saying that so excitedly. Chu Kong’s face must’ve turned green because of him.

In order to prevent Chu Kong from running away, I stopped him and said: “Did you forget? We still have to receive punishment from him……”

Chu Kong stiffened, gritted his teeth and reluctantly hid his whip.

Yanw.a.n.g scratched his head and put and unwilling expression: “You don’t need to worry about that……”

His words hardly left his mouth, when on the road to the netherworld abruptly came a white aura of an immortal. I’ve never been beside such an aura before in heaven. Even my soul is getting stronger with that aura.

At the road stood the three little ghosts who b.u.mped into me. They smiled while walking beside the immortal.

“Great G.o.d, this way.”

“Great G.o.d, no hurry.”

Such smiles are totally different from when they b.u.mped into me.

When they got nearer, I saw that in the white aura is great golden star, Taibai. Why isn’t he enjoying in heaven? Why did he come to the netherworld?

“Yanw.a.n.g really walks too fast. I can’t keep up with you.”

Great golden star Taibai, walked to Yanw.a.n.g and shook his head.

“This old bones of mine can’t move anymore. Your netherworld’s miasma is heavier. This old bone can’t inhale anymore. Are celestial star Chu Kong and that cloud fairy Xian Zi here? After saying his majesty’s will, I need to hurry back.”

Yanw.a.n.g pointed at me: “They are all there.”

Great golden start Taibai is famous in heaven for being blind. He took a few steps towards us before he saw us clearly. He nodded: “That’s right, that’s right. En, his majesty’s decree is here.”

The old man searched in his sleeves for a long while. He scratched his head and said: “Huh…….where……where did his majesty decree go to? Aiya, I, this old bone; can it be that I lost it on the way here?”

My mouth twitched. Chu Kong’s mouth also twitched: “Isn’t it that thing in your sleeves?”

Taibai realized: “Ah, here, here. This old bone’s memory is not good. Wait, I’ll read it.”

Chu Kong said: “Don’t. You need to rest. We’ll read it ourself.”

While saying that, he took the decree from great golden star Taibai. He opened it. His eyebrows raised and his eyes narrowed slightly. He closed the decree and looked at Yanw.a.n.g: “You’d better explain what is going on.”

I was curious and looked at the decree in Chu Kong’s hand. Chu Kong gave me a glare. That look said “adult is doing business, children need to wait”. I thought I was truly being despised.

Yanw.a.n.g touched his nose: “Well, in general it’s like this. On the eighteenth level of the netherworld a hole has been created. That hole is connected to a mountain from the mortal realm. In order to prevent the evil aura from leaking into the mortal realm, you are hereby ordered to go with Xiao Xiang Zi to fill the hole. Considering that this a difficult task, so the Jade emperor decided to give you two a little reward.”

Hearing the word “reward”, my mind was stuffed with gold. Excitedly, I asked loudly: “What reward?!”
