Zhang Ziqing kept looking at the clock on the lighthouse. After the Jiangning Star turned around, the clock on the lighthouse in the distance stopped at the thirteenth minute, and the second hand also moved to the fourteenth minute.
It seems that the statement of thirteen seconds and fourteen seconds is indeed true. Even if the Ferris wheel has been stopped for so many days, there is still no deviation in the time when it starts running again.
After completing a circle, Jiangning Star stopped rotating, and the cabin where Zhang Ziqing was located also stopped at the bottom, but now only Zhang Ziqing was left in the entire cabin.
Looking at where Li Zhihan was sitting, Zhang Ziqing was stunned for a while. After a long time, he came back to his senses. He sighed and took back his clothes from where Li Zhihan was sitting. Someone outside had already opened the hatch for him.
"I didn't expect you to come in person." Zhang Ziqing looked at the visitor. Although he said this, there was no surprise in his tone.
The person who came was a tall young man, probably over two meters tall, but his appearance was very elegant, but his face was a little pale and looked sickly.
"The people under my command always fail to get things done and make you angry again and again. I don't dare to let them get in trouble with you, the god of murder." The man joked.
Zhang Ziqing was silent for a while and said softly: "Qin should have already said hello to you, right?"
"I told you, don't worry." The man nodded: "Her mother is already waiting for her on Huangquan Road. They will meet soon."
"Thank you." Zhang Ziqing said.
The man was a little surprised: "After all these years, I didn't expect you to thank me for this matter."
"Because this matter is really important." Zhang Ziqing said seriously.
The man nodded, "I understand."
"And one more thing."
"you say."
“Give me a word.
She asked me a question before she left. I didn't have time to tell her the answer. Although it was a little late now, I still felt the need to answer her.
Just say, 'Yes, in ancient times, that was the first time we met'. "
Although it was just a simple reply, this sentence made the man freeze on the spot, and a somewhat bold idea appeared in his mind.
"Wait a minute, she, she is the one from five thousand years ago..."
"Well, it's her." Although the man hadn't finished speaking, Zhang Ziqing already knew what he was going to say next.
After receiving an affirmative answer, the man couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, "I thought you had forgotten her after so many years."
Zhang Ziqing shook his head, "Really speaking, I will actually participate in every life of hers, but I will only participate in a certain moment, or even only for a few days."
"This is your last life, right?"
"Um."
"Actually, I brought this sentence to her, but it doesn't mean much. Her life is over. From the next life, your fate will be completely severed, and she will no longer remember you.
To be precise, she should be on the road to Huangquan now. After a while, she will forget all this after walking on Naihe Bridge and drinking Meng Po soup. "
"I know, but I still want to give her an answer at the last moment of this life so that there will be no regrets about this matter."
"Then I understand." The man sighed, and after a moment of hesitation he said, "Actually, if you had thought about it, she wouldn't have had to endure the pain of hundreds of reincarnations."
After the man finished speaking, Zhang Ziqing did not answer. He just turned around and looked in a certain direction, which was the building where Li Zhihan lived.
The man shook his head and disappeared from the spot.
As the man's figure dissipated, the heavy rain that lasted for five days in Jiangning City finally began to taper off. When it fell, the heavy rain was so compact that it made people feel suffocating, but now it stopped in just a short time. Within a minute or two, the water that was one or two meters high receded in an instant and disappeared without a trace, as if it had never appeared.
At the same time, the thick black clouds in the sky also began to fade and then disappear. The moon and stars that Jiangning citizens had not seen for five days also reappeared in the sky at this time, emitting a faint light. Lighting up the streets of Jiangning City.
Although it was already past twelve o'clock in the morning, it did not affect the joy brought to everyone after the heavy rain stopped. Within two minutes, the street outside was already full of people.
Everyone looked at the moon in the sky and the streets that were now in a mess, and couldn't help crying with joy. Everyone they knew or didn't know on the street hugged each other and cheered.
In the past few days, there have been continuous heavy rains and frequent power outages. People who have no food at home can hardly even eat. It seems to everyone that the end of the world is coming, and even the news cannot reach the outside world. There is a sense of isolation. Feeling helpless.
But now this heavy rain, which I thought would never stop, suddenly disappeared without a trace, and all the water on the ground has receded. This is undoubtedly like a kind of disaster to the people who are surviving the disaster. Rebirth.
It was just that the sudden excitement made Zhang Ziqing a little uncomfortable for a while. He waved his hand, and all the surrounding sounds disappeared as his fingers fell, and the scene in front of him seemed to have turned into a mime.
After standing there briefly for a while, Zhang Ziqing reached out and opened the door of the cabin, sat in alone, and Jiangning Star began to rotate for another thirteen minutes and fourteen seconds.
——

Hades.
Huangquan Road.
Li Zhihan looked at the situation he was in in front of him. He was on an endless desert. There were countless expressionless people walking forward numbly. Among the crowd, there were some people wearing clothes with the word "Ming". The people were waving the whips in their hands to urge these people. If they saw anyone walking slowly, they would whip the whip down. The person who was whipped would immediately have a mark that looked like they had been scalded, deep and deep. The ground is imprinted on the body.
The flow of people behind him surged forward, and Li Zhihan was also forced to move forward.
Li Zhihan looked around as she followed the crowd. She remembered Zhang Ziqing's promise to her that she and her mother would reunite in the underworld.
And the fact is just as Zhang Ziqing said, Li Zhihan just glanced casually and saw that familiar figure in the surging crowd.
She spent the last ten years of her life in bed, never getting out of bed once.
Now that he is dead, he can get out of bed and walk. Li Zhihan can hardly remember the way his mother walked. His eyes turned red for a while, and he quickly ran towards his mother.
"Mother!"
Li Zhihan suddenly hugged the thin middle-aged woman from behind, and for a while, tears could not stop flowing out.
Li Zhihan's mother's body suddenly stiffened, she looked back at her daughter's familiar face in disbelief, and immediately held her daughter tightly in her arms.
After Li Zhihan came of age, because the woman was bedridden, the two never hugged each other so tightly. They thought they would never have another chance, but they didn't expect that it would finally come true in the underworld.
"Hanhan, why are you here? Are you also..."
"Chen Hao hurt you, and he will definitely not let me go." Li Zhihan said softly: "I'm sorry, mom, you could have lived a few more years, but it was me who hurt you."
"Chen Hao? Isn't he your boss? Even the ward where I was hospitalized was arranged by him. I saw that you two were quite harmonious in the ward that day. What happened?" The woman was a little confused. untie.
After Li Zhihan hesitated for a while, he still told the woman the whole process. After all, he had reached the current situation, and there was nothing he couldn't say.
After telling the woman the whole story, the woman stood there for a long time to react, and then sighed heavily, "I didn't expect that Chen Hao was the murderer behind your father's death, and I actually regarded him as the benefactor of our family. , you should have told me earlier."
“If I had told you in advance, you would definitely not be willing to accept his help due to your character.
With my current ability, I still cannot fully afford your treatment and hospitalization expenses, so I can only rely on Chen Hao for the time being. "Li Zhihan thought of Chen Hao's greasy face, and suddenly felt nauseated again, "Besides, this is what Chen Hao owes us and my wife, and he should pay for it! "
The woman looked at Li Zhihan's tired face and stretched out her hand to rub her head: "Hanhan, I have really worked hard on you for so many years. In fact, my mother wanted to say it a long time ago. If I hadn't held you back, you I can definitely live a better life than I am now, and I won’t be threatened by that beast Chen Hao.”
"Mom, what are you talking about? Without you, I might not have survived to adulthood.
After my father passed away, you were the only one who supported me so much, otherwise I wouldn't have exhausted my body. It's fair to say that I am a burden to you. "Li Zhihan said quickly.
The woman's eyes were filled with tears, but there was still a smile on her face: "None of us are a burden. You are my best daughter. Mom will not regret taking you with her in this life. I will still be yours in the next life. Mom, I will take care of you for the rest of my life."
Li Zhihan wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and shook his head: "That's not okay. We are reincarnated together. We can't be mother and daughter in the next life, but we can be sisters.
But in the next life, I will be your sister. You have been taking care of me in this life, so let me take care of you in the future. "
After listening to Li Zhihan's words, the woman couldn't help laughing and said: "Okay, then I will let you be my sister in the next life, and I will follow you."
"Hey, you two have been here grinding and whining and won't move. Are you looking for trouble?"
Just as the mother and daughter were enjoying the joy of being reunited, an angry voice interrupted their mood.
Li Zhihan turned his head and looked over. Not far away from the two of them, a tall ghost man was looking at him with a whip in his hand, with an impatient look on his face.
"You dare to chat on the road to hell and delay the progress of reincarnation. What crime should you do?"
Gui Cha shouted angrily and threw out the whip in his hand without ceremony.
Although he didn't know what the consequences of being whipped and leaving that mark would be, Li Zhihan still subconsciously stood in front of his mother.
She didn't do enough when she was alive, and she hated herself for hurting her mother. After she died, she would never allow anything that hurt her mother to happen again.
Seeing the whip as thick as an arm flying towards him, Li Zhihan gritted his teeth, closed his eyes and prepared to receive the whip.
I just waited for a while, and the whip was clearly in front of my eyes, but I didn't know why it didn't hit my body for a long time.
"Have I ordered this woman not to move?"
Just when Li Zhihan was confused, a chilling voice came, and all the sounds around him stopped.
Li Zhihan opened his eyes. Beside the ghost, a tall young man was grabbing the whip thrown out, his face darkening a little.
At the same time, all the ghosts in the entire desert stopped what they were doing, knelt down together, put their heads on the ground, and shouted loudly.
"See Lord Hades!"
