Chapter 137 Chapter 135·Dawn Line TE·The Widow

The fire is burning brightly.

The ghost looked at the flames—she didn't have to say anything to stop her. As long as Jasmine was burned to death, she could find the next body to possess, and then continue to maintain her "believers".

 As long as Jasmine is burned to death.

 As long as Jasmine is burned to death.

 She can have everything.

 She looked at the young man holding the torch in front of her, and the young man was also looking at her with extremely dull eyes.

"A group of blind believers and a sincere fanatic." Su Mingan looked at her: "You choose for yourself."

 “What do you want?” Ghost asked.

"I want to make a deal with you." Su Mingan said: "I have a tool that can take away a dying person. If you voluntarily leave Jasmine's body and leave Trili, I will save Jasmine." , so that she can continue to live.”

"Why should I believe you." Ghost sneered: "How great do you think I am? I have to sacrifice myself for a small believer? Why do you think I will give up my rule over the town for Jasmine?"

"It doesn't matter." Su Ming'an continued: "It doesn't matter to me whether you leave or not. Saving Trili and Jasmine is just what I did casually. I don't like this town, so just destroy it. My mission has been completed."

The ghost showed full anger at first. After a while, she calmed down slightly and became silent.

She looked at the angry townspeople around her and said softly:

　　…You put me down first.”

Su Mingan immediately went to untie her rope without any hesitation.

 “Hey, he...”

 Some townspeople wanted to stop him, but were stopped by Mitchell's cane. Mitchell's expression was a little solemn, and he was struggling internally.

 The ghost was put down, she rubbed her sore arms and looked at Su Mingan.

 “This is her body.” She said, “Go and ask her.”

 As she spoke, she closed her eyes.

The next moment, Su Mingan saw that particularly innocent look—that was Jasmine's look.

"…Um?"

As if she didn’t expect to wake up in the daytime, Jasmine was a little panicked when she saw the sunlight pouring down from the sky, but soon she saw Su Ming’an in front of her and calmed down slightly.

“Brother Lighthouse, this is...” She noticed the townspeople holding torches and subconsciously clenched his sleeves in fear, just like she often did at night.

 “Jasmine…”

 She heard an old shout, turned her head and saw Barry Mitchell.

“Mayor?” she shouted blankly.

 She didn't recognize Pori.

Even if the **** she once stood in front of her, when his appearance has aged, she sees this person as just a gray-haired old man.

“Jasmine, Jasmine—the whole town’s life is in your hands now.”

The white-haired old man rushed forward tremblingly. Jasmine was a little scared, but she was kind-hearted and did not push away the old man who could not stand still. She looked at this old man with a pleading face and was a little at a loss.

“Please, please let that ghost leave... Our town really can’t sustain the successive exiles and deaths. If this continues, Trilli will become a ghost town..."

The old man clutched her red wedding dress, with deep sadness in his eyes.

Jasmine didn’t know the situation yet. She only knew that she should wake up in the ancestral hall at night, waiting for someone day after day, but she couldn’t remember more.

 But I don’t know why,

When this old man, whom she didn't know at all, rushed up to her with a humble prayer, she felt a sense of loss in her chest.

"Old man, wait a minute..." She shouted subconsciously, but for some reason, as soon as the name came out of her mouth, she felt a sense of absurdity. The feeling was like a tide, one after another, almost drowning her.

 …It seems that she shouldn't call him that.

Who should the other person be to her?

"Jasmine, there is a ghost parasitic on your body." Su Mingan said slowly: "The reason why you have no memory during the day is because it took over your body. Because it is there, a citizen of the town will die every day. "

"...Is that so?" Jasmine was stunned. Suddenly, she hugged her head, as if some memory was being awakened: "I, I remembered, there seemed to be a person who sometimes would When she talks to me, sometimes, she will also tell me stories about the outside world..."

As she spoke, her body suddenly stiffened, and then her eyes trembled violently:

 “No,” she murmured, “she is nobody.”

Su Mingjing looked at her quietly.

"She is my god." Jasmine's eyes were a little dull: "I seemed to have been waiting for someone, and then she came... She talked with me and kept me alive. She knows everything and has supreme power - She is my god."

Su Mingan don’t look away.

 From the looks of it, it was impossible for Jasmine to make a sacrifice to the ghost. Jasmine has regarded the ghost as a god.

He had no emotion about this. He just did it casually and saved whatever he could. If that doesn't work, let this Trilli Town continue as it is. All this is Jasmine and Ghost's own choice. After all, they are just travelers passing by.

 “But, no, that’s not right.” Jasmine’s eyes suddenly fell on Su Ming’an.

 There was something different in her eyes that was completely different from innocence.

"Brother Lighthouse, you told me, you told me other stories..." She spoke in a low tone, as if narrating, whispering what he once said:

"[...I saw what you called the exiles during the day, and I also know that there must be innocent souls among those people. But just to satisfy the wishes of the vast majority of people, to satisfy the progress of the entire town, they were suddenly sacrificed, and this The sacrifice does not require their own consent.]"

She raised her head: "Before, you asked me whether such a system is reasonable... Now I feel that such a system is unreasonable."

Su Mingan looked at her with a new look.

“[Because she could not accept the facts, she spread the absurdity and turned it into what she called truth].” Jasmine whispered and repeated what he had said:

“Brother Lighthouse, the current Trilli is pathological and absurd. And my ideal god, absolutely, absolutely, will not let innocent townspeople die for Him for any reason.”

 “So.” She raised her head, with a rare determination in her eyes.

“In the past, I might have always believed in her, but now, I understand—she is not my god.”

Su Mingan laughed.

 His smile was genuine.

The next moment, he saw that dark ghost floating up from Jasmine's body.

It gradually condensed into the appearance of a woman. Because it was only pitch black, her face could not be seen clearly.

 “Is this your answer, Jasmine?” Ghost looked at her.

"I remembered." Jasmine said firmly: "My **** is named Taboli. I'm sorry...but I will never have a second belief."

Mitchell's body trembled violently, and he seemed to want to shed tears.

 But in the end, he just sighed deeply.

 …

 The ghost disappeared.

 After hearing Jasmine’s answer, it rose up from Jasmine’s body and disappeared.

Jasmine didn’t know where it had gone, but the sudden heavy feeling on her body told her that the ghost had left, and her lingering existence was going to die.

Her vision was a little blurry, and her breathing was getting slower and slower.

 In a daze, she seemed to see a dark presence coming up, and then, it gently touched her lips.

 The ghost kissed her.

 Pious and gentle, light and restrained.

　　【Jasmine, stay alive. 】

She vaguely heard such a sound.

　　【I'm leaving, I'll let you go. 】

　　—Go and pursue your true faith. 】

She wanted to keep this voice, but everything was gradually moving away from her.

 Why do ghosts leave? She doesn't understand.

Obviously as long as she is burned to death, the ghost can continue to rule?

 —She heard cheers.

 The cheers of the townspeople.

They looked really happy, high-fiving and cheering. The women’s laughter was high-pitched and the old man’s laughter was hoarse. She could hear it all clearly as if it was pouring into her ears.

 She felt that her mind was clearer than ever before, and when she heard all this, she knew that she should also be happy that Trilli was safe.

 She raised her eyes slightly, trying to show a smile that was happy that justice had defeated evil, but in the end she only felt her tears were hot.

 The next moment, she saw Su Mingan approaching.

 This traveler has always told many interesting stories. It was he who made her make up her final determination - the confidence that justice will drive out evil.

She watched him stuff a doll into his hand, and then his almost transparent figure gradually stabilized.

 …

 【Duoduo's doll (red level): a one-time prop, after giving it to a dying person, he will become your "forever" companion】

 …

 “You did it, Jasmine.”

 She saw the mayor smiling at her. The white-haired old man had a kind face and looked like the father she had a vague memory of.

 …But she always felt that something was missing in her heart.

 Later she touched her heart and understood - because her **** had completely disappeared.

 The mayor in front of me is named Bo Li.

 The departing ghost, it says it is gone.

 Whether it was before or now, her gods have completely disappeared from her life.

But it’s all a joy.

 Because of [justice].

“Brother Lighthouse, I remembered.” Jasmine murmured to herself: “Ghost once told me that she did all this to wait for the former **** of Trilli.”

Su Mingan looked sideways at her.

"Whether they are ghosts or gods, they have all left." Su Mingan said: "Your belief now is yourselves."

“…” Jasmine was silent for a while, and then suddenly covered her face: “Brother Lighthouse.”

 She tried to smile, like the group of Trilee townsfolk who were starting to revel behind her, but in the end she couldn't even hold back the inexplicable tears.

“…Should I be happy?” she asked in confusion.

  She was born for her faith, and she once wanted to die for her faith.

 But now, it is clear that there is nothing left around her.

 “Yeah.” Su Mingan responded to her.

"—Thank you, thank you, traveler from the outside world!" Mitchell approached with a cane, grinning cheerfully: "Tonight Trilli will hold a celebration banquet, thank you—"

 He looked at the girl aside: "Ah, there is Jasmine."

Jasmine's memory gradually recovered, and she recognized the old man.

Bo Li still has the shadow of his youth. His facial features have not changed much, but the wrinkles of time have changed his appearance.

 But she did not acknowledge him.

 He is no longer the **** she wants to wait for.

—She now has nothing but justice in her hands.

 …

 【Dawn Line·Perfect clearance process 100%】

 …

Aini returned from the exiled space, and he saw a three-to-three voting ratio on the table.

 Since there are three people in both camps, no one is eliminated in this referendum.

 He also wanted to see the execution process over there, hoping that the girl was not dead yet. But when he turned his head, he saw the empty rack.

Those townspeople have disappeared. They seem to be going to hold some kind of celebration party, and the laughter is floating on the other side.

The girl named Jasmine was shaking uncontrollably.

 He could only see that her whole body was bent, like a stiff bow with its strings drawn.

Beside her, stood Su Mingan.

  Aini heard the girl's cry.

Her palms held a ball of black mist, which was the last spirit body of the ghost, but soon the mist also flowed through her fingers. She grabbed the air, but found nothing.

“What’s wrong?” Aini came up and asked, “Did you make someone cry?”

Su Mingan said nothing.

Aini realized that the other person might not be in a good mood either.

 “Ani.” The clone came up and patted him on the shoulder: “Don’t be stunned, follow me, the werewolf players are not dead yet.”

 “Hey, wait...” Aini wanted to ask something else, but was pulled away directly.

The moment he was pulled away, he heard Su Mingan’s faint voice floating in the wind:

 …

 “This ending should be regarded as a ‘happy outcome for all’.”

 …

　　—People only care about themselves, they don’t understand what price I paid. 】

 …

Su Mingan looked at Jasmine with her head hanging down, watching her squeeze the doll tightly into her arms.

 He heard a prompt from the system.

However, it’s not cold.

 Like the girl said, the narration ringing in his ears.

People look happy, for their happy tomorrow, for the dawn they can see every day. 】

She bowed her waist, and the black mist in her hands completely dissipated. Between the sobs, he heard her wolf-like howling.

　　【No one remembers the dead girl, and the names of the tablets in the ancestral hall are vague. 】

I don’t know if ghosts will still come to Trilli, and whether it will still become their belief. 】

 The girl hugged herself vigorously, her whole body shaking, as if she was hugging a non-existent person.

I only know that I, who should have died a long time ago, am so loved by the ghost who should have become a god, and I am lifted up by her and sent to "tomorrow". 】

  【She left Trilli to save me. 】

She is clearly an evil ghost, so why would she leave the land she controls for the sake of a girl who is permanently imprisoned in the ancestral hall, and for the girl to live? 】

【Belief? Reluctant to give up? pity? still-】

　　【…】

  【…‘love’ in the long wait? 】

　　【I am Jasmine, I love her, this is more than just belief. 】

Smoke is rising from the kitchen stove, the townspeople are preparing for the dinner, and the town is peaceful.

 Poli leaned on crutches and turned around.

 There was a little confusion in his eyes.

 …

I am a lost traveler and a pilgrim with firm faith. 】

　　　【I am a ghost watching in secret, and a sinner who has lost his way and found his way back. 】

　　【I don't understand what I am pursuing in my heart, but I understand that it is not easy to live in such a world. 】

　　—I will embrace the incomplete attachment, hold my justice in my hand, and live with nothing. 】

 …

　　—Until the dawn of every day. 】

 …

Su Ming'an stepped forward, put his hand on Jasmine's shoulder, and she raised her head.

“A traveler from the outside world.” She looked at him with tears in her eyes: “My gods are all dead, what do I have left?”

Su Mingan grabbed her hand and put it on her chest.

 He said nothing.

Jasmine burst into tears suddenly. She buried her head in her arms and held Su Mingan's arms tightly, like a drowning person struggling to pull at the last straw.

Su Mingan did not break free, but silently watched the barrages passing by.

 It’s like looking at another world.

 …

 “Ding dong!”
