not scary story

If Yan Jiu, who has yin and yang eyes, said what he saw, he would be careless.

Qiao Yuan frowned and stared at the child's back for a long time, but still couldn't see any problem.Now let alone the talisman paper, even the dagger that he seldom left was placed on the cart. If he wanted to cast a spell, he couldn't even make step and handprint in the water.

"Let's go ashore." Qiao Yuan worried that with Yan Jiu's physique like a Tang monk, he might be the one who would be haunted by the water ghost later.

"Well," Yan Jiu could see ghosts in broad daylight, so Yan Jiu chose to walk as the best policy, "I wish I had known to go to the swimming pool."

Qiao Yuan didn't think so.I don't know how crowded the swimming pool should be today, and it's normal to meet people when it's crowded. When he thinks of which girl's body Yan Jiu, an innocent fool, might touch, he will feel quite bad.

Now the river is very spacious, although there are water ghosts, but for those who see ghosts all the year round, it is like a cockroach running by the side of the road, just ignore it.

Yan Jiu didn't know this awkward possessive desire, when he swam to the shore, he couldn't help looking at the child who was haunted by the water ghost.

The child is only seven or eight years old, and his water skills are good. He has already swam to the deep water area, and the swimming ring is thrown aside, playing a game of drilling rings with his friends.

"...No, I still have to remind you." Yan Jiu turned back, swam to the children who were playing and playing, reminded them to pay attention to safety, and hurried back to the shore.Children are very playful, how can they listen to this stranger, and continue to fight after a perfunctory response.

Yan Jiu is in a hurry.

The black shadow sank after seeing him, and after realizing that he didn't have any magic power, that ferocious grimace appeared beside Yan Jiu again, threatening him to get out of here quickly.

Yan Jiu, whose face turned blue from fright, quickly swam back to the shore, and with the help of Qiao Yuan, found the parents of the child, panting and reminded the man who was playing cards in swimming trunks on the shore: "It's very dangerous for your child to behave like this." Yes, there are too many undercurrents below, let him go back to the shore quickly."

"Oh," the man looked at the cards in his hand with a cigarette in his mouth, and shouted into the river without raising his head: "Gua Wazi, swim over here, I can't see you!"

The son still had to listen to Lao Tzu, reluctantly swam a few meters into the shallow water, and continued to make noise.

Yan Jiu didn't see him go ashore for a long time, so he had to repeat again: "Uh, let's call them back to the shore, or it's really dangerous..."

The man was in agitated beating, when he interrupted him like this, he was immediately annoyed: "Do you want to be a son? Do you want to be a son? You have to care about swimming! Which one are you?"

With this shout, other adults also looked over, and Yan Jiu stood there awkwardly, not knowing whether he should leave or continue to persuade.

But he didn't dare to imagine that if the water ghost really dragged the child down...

Just when he plucked up his courage and wanted to find another excuse to persuade someone to come up, Qiao Yuan pulled him away.

"Why, they haven't come up yet..." Yan Jiu was in a hurry, and turned back several times to look at the children in the river.The sun has already started to set, and if it doesn't come up again, it will be dangerous...

"Today is Qixi Festival, these ghosts don't dare to mess around." Qiao Yuan darkened his face and glared fiercely at the man who dared to yell at his hamster, "How do you explain this situation? Who would believe you?"

"But the child is too innocent!" Yan Jiu wanted to shake off his hand and continue to go back, "You can't just watch him have an accident, can you?"

Qiao Yuan looked at him coldly, without the slightest pity in his eyes: "How can you help? How many of the prey caught by the water ghost survived? Everyone has his own life, even his parents and himself If you don't pay attention to your own life, how can others keep his life safe?"

"...That can't just sit and watch..." Yan Jiu couldn't continue, he was naturally soft-hearted, and he had meddled in his own business several times before, but as Qiao Yuan said, there was a fire disaster in his life, even if the basin in front of him When the flame goes out, that person may also be burned because the mosquito coil ignites the mat.

For those who practice Taoism, fate does not mean which way you will die in the end, but that there are countless calamities in fate, and if you are not careful, you will be swallowed by this calamity.

The way to avoid these catastrophes is to be responsible for your own life.

Qiao Yuan looked at Yan Jiu's tangled appearance, and took a soft breath: "I'll give you one last chance, if he still doesn't listen, it has nothing to do with you."

"Why don't you teach me how to say it?" Yan Jiu frowned and asked him for help.Big brother must have a way, this is his unchanging belief.

The young master who never preached, let alone comforted others, stared at him for a long time, and Qiao Yuan finally gave up the opportunity to establish a glorious image in his heart: "You find a way by yourself."

"..." Yan Jiu had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk over again.

This time, the timing of his appearance was even worse. The man had just lost a lot and was full of anger. Before he could open his mouth, he slammed down the cards in his hand, pointed at Yan Jiu's nose and cursed: "Mom!" Come back here! Just when you were about to win, you got a crow's mouth black ball! You have to worry about my baby swimming, why don't you drink up the water! Get out!"

Yan Jiu was almost sprayed by his saliva, stepped back quickly, and rolled back in despair under Qiao Yuan's playful eyes.

"Where's the sense of justice? Has it been extinguished?" Qiao Yuan didn't intend to comfort him with his swimming ring on his shoulders.This guy's sense of justice is not directly proportional to his courage, Qiao Yuan, who has a cold temperament, just wants to see how he will be polished by reality.

Although what he wanted to see was Yan Jiu showing off his power, it was a pity that he failed this time.

"Is this really good?" Yan Jiu looked back at the children in the river melancholy while walking towards the parking lot.

The sun had already set, and the river was glowing fiery red with the setting sun, and the waves became darker. Yan Jiu's eyelids twitched when he saw it. Before it was dark, he could imagine the underwater scene at night.

"Whether it's good or bad, it's all the result of this person's choice. Everyone knows what kind of disaster a person who seeks pleasure will encounter, but they all think that it won't happen to them." Qiao Yuan had his own thoughts at this time. theory.

Yan Jiu could only let go of his worries, and when he sat in the co-pilot and saw Qiao Yuan skillfully turning out of the parking lot and overtaking a few cars, he said: "Actually, you are also greedy for fast driving, and this is also your fault." Doom, right?"

"..." Qiao Yuan, who had finally been taught a lesson, could only hold back his fire and slow down the car.

If you really want to talk about his doom, how can it be as simple as driving?

Bad and flamboyant personality, fighting desperately, everyone is jealous of being rich.

None of them sound like the traits that can lead to a long life, and now I like a boy again, no matter how it sounds, it is a life that is going to be a mess.

Don't be afraid of death if you have a lot of debts, and you won't be afraid of death if you have a lot of calamities. This is Qiao Yuan.

At night, Xihe Town became lively.Many people came here from the urban area to celebrate the festival, and various activities were held in the town. The stalls selling river lanterns and Qixi dolls were very popular. Yan Jiu thought that Qiao Yuan would buy materials and make them himself. The young master actually bought two river lanterns and a pair of male dolls at the stall.

Witnessing with his own eyes that he bought two pairs of Cowherd and Weaver Girls, and then gave them to a passing local little girl, Yan Jiu felt that it was better to pretend that he didn't know anything at this time.

"Your." After Qiao Yuan wrote their respective names on the backs of the two cowherds, he threw the one with his own name to him, and stuffed the one with Yan Xiaojiu into his schoolbag.

"..." Is this kind of girlish behavior really what his elder brother would do?

"Let's go, let the river lantern go." Qiao Yuan didn't seem to notice his embarrassment, so he took his hand over.

On the street full of lovers, the two boys holding hands are like two [-]-watt lamps, not to mention one of them is blindingly beautiful.

It was the first time Yan Jiu was watched by crowds, and it was still in this situation. She was so ashamed that her hands were shaking, and she wanted to run away.However, Qiao Yuan pulled him very tightly, not caring about the discussions and ridicule around him at all.

"Stop it, what if someone you know sees it?" Yan Jiu persuaded in a low voice.

"Acquaintance? Who? Don't you have no friends?" Qiao Yuan simply turned his wrist and clasped his fingers together.If you don't get rid of it, you are making progress, and what Young Master Qiao is best at is making progress.

"..." Yan Jiu choked for a while after being hit by the needle, before saying: "It's not good to be seen by your acquaintances."

"You see it when you see it. He knows me but I don't know him." Young Master Qiao said arrogantly, holding his hand and walking more openly.

Yan Jiu's heartbeat was almost breaking the watch, and she couldn't refute his words, so she could only try her best to ignore the sight of her surroundings, walking side by side with him.

The largest ancestral hall in the town is holding a "pretend" activity, and the crowd has crowded the entire ancestral hall.Qiao Yuan didn't want to join in the excitement, but seeing Yan Jiu staring at the handicrafts displayed inside and the Qiao sisters who were competing on the spot without blinking, he still didn't pull him away after all.

It wasn't until Yan Jiu had seen enough that Qiao Yuan dragged him towards the river.

"Can ordinary lotus lanterns be enough?" Yan Jiu stared at the simple lotus lanterns in his hand, not very clear about the difference between them and the river lanterns on the Hungry Ghost Festival.

"Well, the river lanterns on the Double Seventh Festival are mostly just a gimmick. On the day of the Ghost Festival, there will be an official ceremony to release the river lanterns. The river lanterns on that day must be made of special colored paper. Today," he knelt down and lit the river lanterns. "Just to accompany you to fulfill your wish."

Being attacked by such unconscious love words many times in a day, Yan Jiu, who was originally not firm in her position, almost lost her position.

However, Qiao Yuan didn't realize how much he had changed. He just wanted to make this guy like him more. What's the difference between him and the usual, that's not within the scope of thinking about him at all.

He likes seeing the way the guy trusts him wholeheartedly, and it doesn't matter how much of his usual pride and indifference it takes.

The place where the two put the river lanterns was very quiet, and the crowd was still concentrated on the side of the ancestral hall. The noise came from far away, as if it was a world away.

Yan Jiu put the river lantern into the river, stared at it and slowly rotated away for an unknown period of time, until he saw a few villains sitting on the lotus lantern floating down from the upstream, and immediately pulled Qiao Yuan's hand. clothes corner.

"Above... there are villains." Yan Jiu didn't know how to describe it, he had never seen such a monster.Said it was a water ghost, but it didn't look like it.It's more like a group of goblins in the river, some are lying on the river lamp, and some are stepping on the water, as if traveling in a paper boat.

The night was very cloudy, so Qiao Yuan also saw these little things, and explained: "Little water monster, this season is the most common. It is just like insects, and it is harmless. It likes to eat rotten plants the most."

Yan Jiu squatted by the river, staring blankly at these thumb-sized little monsters drifting past them, and some were frightened by Yan Jiu's gaze, and jumped into the water to escape.

More and more people came to release the river lanterns, Yan Jiu stood up under the urging of Qiao Yuan.

He looked up at Qiao Yuan, who always had a smile on his lips, and said in a low voice, "I think I was wrong."

"Huh?" Young Master Qiao, who was in a good mood because of a beautiful day, kept smiling.

"In fact, they are not all scary. Scary ghosts are caused by people themselves. Those natural monsters are actually not scary sometimes..." Yan Jiu let go of his prejudices for the first time, and carefully examined the experience he had experienced. Everything, "I was always scared first, never trying to get to know them. So much so that their mere existence became a source of fear."

Qiao Yuan put his hands in his pockets and listened to his self-reflection with slightly raised lips.Every change of Yan Jiu happens around him, and the sense of accomplishment of successful transformation is what all men like. "How did you suddenly have this new understanding?"

Yan Jiu's mouth moved, and after struggling for a while, he lowered his head and whispered with red ears, "Because I'm not so afraid now."

As for the reason why they are not so afraid, they both understand.

It's not as simple as a fox pretending to be a tiger, but because he firmly believes that Qiao Yuan will protect himself at all times. With this kind of confidence, he dares to raise his head and re-examine another world that he had avoided before.

It was only now that he realized that his trust had deteriorated.

Is it really just a friend's favorite?

Not to mention Qiao Yuan didn't believe it, even Yan Jiu didn't believe it at all.
