All five aggregates are empty

Chapter 4

When Meng Lijun arrived at Weiming Lake, it was still a quarter of an hour to nine o'clock.At this time, the sky was completely dark, and there were only a few students on their way around.Meng Lijun walked around the lake for a while, but he didn't see Minghua.He took out his phone, only to realize that he did not have Minghua's contact information, so he put the phone back.

After an unknown amount of time, Meng Lijun suddenly found that all the students on the road had disappeared, and the surrounding streetlights became a little dim, as if shrouded in a layer of fog.It was already past nine o'clock, and the familiar Weiming Lake seemed to be covered with a veil of mystery, giving people a feeling of alienation.

After waiting and waiting, Minghua was not seen, so Meng Lijun planned to leave. After all, this strange Weiming Lake was still a bit scary.But just as he turned to leave, the sound of a distant flute suddenly sounded by the lake, and he turned around subconsciously, but the sound of the flute suddenly disappeared.

Meng Lijun looked around, it was still so empty and quiet, he couldn't help suspecting that he had auditory hallucinations.However, when he turned to leave again, the flute sounded again, and when he turned his head, the flute sound disappeared again.

Well, it looks like someone was teasing him.

This time he walked forward without looking back, thinking that no matter what the sound was, he would never look back.However, unlike the previous two times, a woman's laughter sounded by the lake this time.

Meng Lijun immediately broke his oath and turned to look at the lake.The laughter didn't stop, he followed the laughter and saw a woman in red sitting on the stone boat on the other side of the lake, holding a flute in her hand.

The woman was obviously far away from him, but her laughter seemed to be right next to his ear.Meng Lijun knew that this woman was unusual, so he decided to pretend that he didn't see it and continue walking back in accordance with the principle that well water should not interfere with river water.However, as soon as he turned around, the woman in red suddenly appeared in front of him.It felt as if the woman had been standing behind him, waiting for him to turn around.

Meng Lijun was taken aback, but at least he was a high-educated New Year's New Year and had seen the world himself, so he calmed down quickly.

"You're in my way."

"Oh?" The woman drew a line on Meng Lijun's chest with her index finger with great interest, "You can see me."

"Obviously, yes."

The woman slowly approached Meng Lijun, sniffed his neck, seemed to be sure that Meng Lijun was not a threat to her, and stuck her whole body on Meng Lijun. "Are you here to hear me play?"

"No." Meng Lijun frowned and pushed the woman away, but the woman's strength was so incomparable that it was impossible to break free.

"You should really listen to it, I can blow it really well." The woman leaned into Meng Lijun's ear and said.

"As long as you get off me, I'm willing to listen."

"That's good." The woman let go of her hand obediently, and then suddenly disappeared into the air like mist.

Meng Lijun looked around, he knew the woman hadn't left, but he didn't know where she went.At this time, a woman's voice suddenly sounded by the lake: "Come here."

Taking a closer look, it turned out that the woman had been sitting on the bench by the lake since no one knew when.Meng Lijun instinctively wanted to go back, but his feet walked towards the bench uncontrollably.

This is troublesome, Meng Lijun couldn't help crying in his heart, it seems that this female ghost is entangled with him.

After Meng Lijun sat down, the woman took out her flute and played it with satisfaction.Meng Lijun didn't know the title of the song the woman was playing, but overall it was pretty good.The sound of the flute was melodious and melodious, resounding throughout the Weiming Lake. If it wasn't for the strange atmosphere at this time, Meng Lijun would even close his eyes to appreciate it carefully.

But at the moment, all he was thinking about was—where did the monk die?

To be honest, although he is a little scared now, he is not particularly scared.In the past few years, several times he has seen ghosts who originally wanted to trouble him suddenly run away for some reason, and he discovered that ghosts also have something to be afraid of.Although he didn't know what those ghosts were afraid of, but gradually he became no longer afraid, and even saw the strange things.

Besides, the reason why he ran into this female ghost today was entirely because of Minghua.He always felt that Minghua would definitely show up, after all, he had promised Teacher Zheng that he would be responsible for him.

No, when did he rely on that monk so much?Meng Lijun despised himself in his heart.

"The last time we were here, it was still spring."

Meng Lijun came back to his senses and found that the woman had put down the flute and was talking to him.She seemed to recall something, and the expression on her face was very gentle.

Meng Lijun observed it, and found that the woman was not bad-looking, with the temperament of a classic beauty.He sighed silently in his heart. Hearing what she said, he didn't know which man failed her.

"The peach blossoms by Weiming Lake bloom in spring, and they are really beautiful."

"Why don't you ask who 'we' are?"

"It doesn't matter who it is, it's not me anyway." Meng Lijun said what he was holding back in his heart. He said sincerely: "There is a wronged person and a debtor. I am just a passerby passing by. You don't need to trouble me."

The woman giggled, "You are really interesting, you know, you look exactly like him."

"I don't believe it, don't lie to me." Meng Lijun immediately returned, "It's rare to see people who grow up like me."

"Oh, then I can't let you go." After the woman finished speaking softly, she disappeared again.

The flute sounded again by the Weiming Lake, but the woman was nowhere to be seen.The sound of the flute this time was obviously different from just now, the rhythm was fierce and piercing, and the hairs all over Meng Lijun's body stood on end.He knew it was very dangerous to stay by the lake, so he got up and ran back immediately.But he didn't take two steps, and the concrete floor under his feet suddenly turned into a lake, causing him to fall into it unprepared.

Meng Lijun choked on the lake water, and the foul smell filled his throat, rushing straight to his head.At this time, the lake water was icy cold, and the bottom of the lake could not be touched under the feet.He jumped a few times, and suddenly felt a hand grabbing his ankle, pulling him down continuously.His body began to sink, getting further and further away from the lake.He felt that the hand on his ankle was climbing up little by little, so he subconsciously looked down.The bright moonlight seemed to be cut in half by the lake, and the underwater world was dark.He could feel the hand holding him rising higher and higher, but right now he couldn't see anything.His chest was really cramped, and Meng Lijun's breath had reached its limit.

If you don't go up, it will be really bad...

Consciousness began to blur, and his body became heavier and heavier, but at this moment, Meng Lijun's back suddenly began to flash with dark green light.

With the light on his back, Meng Lijun could barely see the scenery at the bottom of the lake.It turned out that it was not one hand that was holding him, but countless hands.His feet were like hills piled up with corpses, stretching to the bottom of the unfathomable lake.Those swollen and mutilated corpses were like evil spirits trying to escape from hell, scrambling to climb up.

Meng Lijun was shocked by the scene in front of him, and even forgot the pain of not being able to breathe.The light behind him flickered rhythmically, and the frequency seemed to match his breathing.The corpse under his feet no longer climbed up, but just looked at him quietly, looking ready to go.

He suddenly realized that these corpses seemed a little afraid of the light on his body.He struggled hard, and the light behind him spread, and the corpses piled up into a hill immediately fled in all directions.

Meng Lijun poked his head out from the lake, greedily breathing in the long-lost air.The light on the back was still flickering, but it was much weaker than when it was in the lake.He hurriedly swam towards the shore, but before he could swim a few meters, a huge suction suddenly appeared behind him, pulling him towards the center of the lake.

The strong desire to survive kept him struggling, and he felt a force helping him resist the converging water flow, but that force sometimes disappeared, and he still retreated a lot along the water flow.

After a while, all the surrounding water was sucked away, and the force pulling him also disappeared.With real feeling under his feet, he looked around and saw that all the water of Weiming Lake flowed to the center of the lake, and a huge vortex appeared in the center of the lake.

Weiming Lake is indeed not deep, and you can see that the shore of the lake is not high even if you stand in the lake.But anyone would have guessed that the vortex that appeared in the center of the lake must not be shallow.

Meng Lijun stepped back quickly and ran towards the shore.At this time, the heartbeat he heard during the day reappeared.The vortex continued to expand with the rhythm of his heartbeat. When he rolled and climbed onto the shore, a gust of wind suddenly blew up around him, almost blowing him back into the lake again.

He stabilized his body, and suddenly the passionate flute sounded again. He looked back and saw a huge black reptile crawling out of the vortex.

It is more appropriate to say that it is a reptile, or perhaps it is a black shadow in the shape of a reptile.

Shadows poured out of the vortex continuously, and the size might be as big as the entire Weiming Lake.And the woman in red stood on top of the black shadow.

Meng Lijun was so frightened that he sat down on the ground. He had never seen such a big guy before.The shadow crawler squirmed forward following the sound of the flute, and soon came to Meng Lijun.

When they got closer, Meng Lijun found that the woman in red was completely different from the one just now. Her skin was blue-purple, cracked and festered everywhere, and half of her face was missing, revealing terrifying white bones.

The woman in red put down her flute, and the reptile also stopped.

"Why don't you come down obediently, and let me pick it up in person." When the woman spoke, the flesh on her face also trembled.

Meng Lijun resisted the desire to vomit, and took a few steps back, "We've never met each other, why did you want to kill me?"

"You and I are destined, isn't that reason enough?" The woman laughed wildly a few times, and then played the flute again.The shadow crawler attacked Meng Lijun fiercely, and quickly enveloped him.

Meng Lijun felt that he was trapped in boundless fear, which was exactly the same as when he was nine years old.However, before he recalled his previous experience, he found a dark green halo separating him from the shadow, forming a spherical space.

His back was hot, as if something was tearing his skin.He struggled to stand up, but before taking two steps, he propped his hands on the ground weakly and knelt on the ground.

Dizzy, fingertips trembling uncontrollably, Meng Lijun obviously felt that his body was a little out of control.He tried to move his legs, but the body didn't seem to be his.He finally gave up resisting and let the strange force control his body.

In a daze, Meng Lijun felt that he broke through the shadow crawler and floated into the air.The reptile retreated to the center of the lake, screaming hysterically.At this time, many golden threads suddenly appeared from the land in all directions, and gathered in the air, forming a huge birdcage-like thing.The birdcage gradually shrinks, and eventually traps the reptile.

"It's you?!" The woman in red who was locked up with the reptile shouted in Meng Lijun's direction.Meng Lijun turned his head to look in a daze, only to realize that Minghua was standing beside him at some point.

"Why did you come here..." After Meng Lijun finished speaking, he lost consciousness, and the last trace of memory stayed in the moment when Minghua hugged his falling body.
