My Sand Sculpture Boss

"Call the police!" A girl's anxious voice came from beside her.

Sun Qian woke up like a dream, and quickly picked up the phone.She didn't see the girl who spoke, but only smelled the warm fragrance of peach blossoms.

----

Eight o'clock at night.

After Gu Huaizhi arranged for the donation, he saw the sketchbooks for sale on the bookshelf.He has studied fine arts for several years, and learned watercolor as if he were colorblind. He turned into a black ghost in seconds after the sketch was adjusted. Only the sketches were very good. He scored 98 points in the provincial art entrance examination that year.

It's a pity that the other two subjects did not pass 50, and the total score was even more embarrassing.

Gu Huaizhi picked up the sketchbook and looked at the price, transferred twenty to Zhao Suyi's account, and unpacked it.He found a pencil and simply outlined the orphanage, and in the center drew a girl holding a dirty bear doll. The girl was grinning, looking very silly.

Gu Huaizhi looked at it for a while, and the girl's dull expression made him feel a little uncomfortable.So I found an eraser to erase the girl's stiff face, wiped off the stains on the doll bear, re-drawn a smiling face for the girl, and filled in the bear's missing half of the ear.He thought for a while, and drew a young female teacher and a girl with a long skirt on the left and right sides of the girl.

The governess had a gold necklace, and the girl wore a small hair tie on her left hand.

They held the girl's hand and stood together in the warm sunshine.

Only then did Gu Huaizhi feel that the picture was more pleasing to the eye.

He closed the sketchbook and put it in the drawer under the counter.By the way, Wang Xiangqian's body was covered with a piece of clothing.

At this time, Wang Xiangqian came to the bookstore with a paper lantern, returned to his body, stood up and moved his hands and feet a few times.

Gu Huaizhi raised his head and glanced at Wang Xiangqian, and found that the circle of phoenix feathers pasted next to the paper lantern was gone: "Is there something on the way to grab the soul-returning incense?"

"No." Wang Xiangqian explained, "I met a friend, and I went out with her to do some business. For convenience, she stayed inside the lantern first. With that ring of feathers, she couldn't get in."

Gu Huaizhi understands that the friends Wang Xiangqian mentioned are not living people, and it is very inconvenient for ghosts to act in the underworld, and it is common to find something to live in.He asked curiously, "Where did you go?"

"Punish the evil and promote the good." Wang Xiangqian said, "My friend was a girl who was abducted and sold to the mountains by human traffickers. She remembered the faces of those traffickers and the places where they hid and traded. Let's find those Traffickers."

"After finding it?"

"First beat me up, and then asked a little girl to call the police." Wang Xiangqian said in a serious tone, as if he was joking, "That's what my friend meant. She said that it would be best if they were all arrested. Sentenced to life, it would be better to be locked in prison for the rest of your life. Death is too pleasant for them, and she doesn’t want them to be happy. They are humans and she is a ghost, so let them be punished in a human way. Traffickers put so many women Children are used as tools to make money, and so many families have been ruined, and the price must be paid!"

"Don't say it, it feels really good to beat those bad guys. Lock the door first, and then start, they can't see us, so they scream."

It was the first time Gu Huaizhi heard such a "sensible revenge" ghost, and his heart was moved: "Where is your friend?"

"Inside the lantern." Wang Qianqian patted the paper lantern lightly, "Come out, we're here, we're safe."

no respond.

"Huh? Shouldn't it? I told her to come here first." Wang Xiangqian felt very strange, he slightly lifted the paper lantern and looked inside.

There is no soul of a girl, there is only a pink hair rope inside the paper lantern.

☆, a promise (7)

Wang Xiangqian froze in place for a while, he clearly remembered that the girl was attached to the lantern, why was there only a small hair rope left?

Could it be that the experience just now was a dream?

Wang Xiangqian couldn't figure it out, so he simply didn't want to.He put the little hair rope into his pocket and looked at the night sky outside the glass window, "I should go home, it's not good to go back too late. I remember where the girl's home is, and it is her wish to go home. Her home is on the first floor , I can easily put the little hair tie back."

Gu Huaizhi: "Give it to me, I'll send it back. It's obviously a good deed, but it's like a thief squatting on the wall. If you are seen by passers-by, they will send you to the police station to drink tea. I won't be able to catch the bus to Yuyang in a while."

Wang Xiangqian thought for a while, and handed the small hair rope to Gu Huaizhi: "I'm sorry to trouble you."

"polite."

After seeing off Wang Xiang, Gu Huaizhi locked the door of the bookstore and asked No. 08 to lead the way to the girl's home.It was the beginning of autumn in September, and the weather was gradually getting cooler. It had rained a few days ago, and the wind at night carried a few traces of cool air, which made goose bumps appear on Gu Huaizhi's arms.

Gu Huaizhi followed Qinghe on foot through the city center, and passed his newly built headquarters building. Corn cobs were stuck among the many high-rise buildings, and their heads protruded, as if condescendingly saying: "Everyone here It's the younger brother."

Not far away is the piece of "Land King" that was auctioned for a high price. Before it was warmed up, it was temporarily taken over by the archaeological team. I don't know when it will start work.

This area really fulfilled the words of the taxi driver at the beginning, it is a treasured place of geomantic omen.However, if you stop working for one day, you will lose one day's money. If you stop working for a long time, you will have to pay back for a long time.Although his old Gu's family can afford a big business and is far from being dragged down, this is the first project that Gu Huanshan is solely responsible for.

Gu Huaizhi lit a cigarette, looked up at the "corn on the cob" illuminated by neon lights, and suddenly wanted to go over to see his brother.He remembered that a few years ago when Gu Huanshan came back from abroad on vacation, Gu Qing gave Gu Huanshan 3000 yuan to go outside to support himself.

If it was Gu Huaizhi, he could spend all the 3000 yuan in less than a day, and then go home with a shy face and call "Dad" a few times.Gu Qing was used to him again, and she would fall down after saying a few words at most.

However, Gu Huanshan was different. He rented a house outside and found a job in real estate sales.Gu Huaizhi was in the first year of high school at that time, and his relationship with Gu Huanshan was not very good, but he still took money to find Gu Huanshan.

Gu Huaizhi happened to see Gu Huanshan selling a house to an old gentleman. He waited beside him and saw Gu Huanshan talking to the old gentleman for a long time, and the old gentleman nodded from time to time, and then politely expressed that he would not buy it.

After Gu Huanshan politely sent the old man away, Gu Huaizhi moved closer to Gu Huanshan, handed him his bank card, and whispered, "I came here secretly, my father doesn't know."

Gu Huanshan put away the bank card: "How much?"

"Nine thousand left, not much. I changed the password to your birthday."

"Okay."

Gu Huaizhi snorted: "Money is dung, bastard, I thought you wouldn't want it."

Gu Huanshan smiled: "I really need money now. I didn't think so before, but after I came out, I found out that everything around me was piled up with this bastard. It's okay. I took your money, so I'll order a small one first." Goal, I will pay you double after salary.”

Gu Huaizhi asked, "How much is your basic salary?"

Gu Huanshan looked at Gu Huaizhi seriously, and compared two fingers to him: "Two thousand."

Gu Huaizhi was silent for a while: "No more."

"Huaizhi, I can pay back. If I don't have this ability, how can I be your brother?" Gu Huanshan said softly, "Don't worry, and... thank you."

Gu Huaizhi felt very embarrassed in his heart, but his face showed an impatient look: "Okay, okay."

Someone noticed them and asked, "Huan Shan, is that handsome guy your younger brother?"

Gu Huanshan put his arms around Gu Huaizhi's shoulders: "Yes, my brother, isn't he cute?"

"It must be cute." Gu Huaizhi who was downstairs looked away, muttered, and decided to send the little hair rope home first, and find Gu Huanshan when he was not too busy.

He smoked a cigarette and continued to walk towards the girl's house with Qing Chi. On the way, he also ordered two cups of health-preserving lemon black tea to be delivered to Gu Huanshan. A warm reminder from my younger brother."

Qingfu led Gu Huaizhi to the community where the girls used to live. A simple mourning hall was being built in front of a unit building, and there were many people who came to help and watch.Logically speaking, mourning halls are usually set up during the daytime, and friends are called in, but this one is a bit low-key and special.

Gu Huaizhi saw Qingfu hovering in front of the mourning hall made of black cloth, and realized that the girl whose hair was tied with a pink hair rope had passed away.

He stood on the edge of the crowd, listening to her relatives, friends and neighbors talking about her before she was alive.

"Miao Miao is a good boy. He studies well, looks good, and gets an award for dancing. Every time he sees me, he still greets me, helps me carry things, and talks with a smile. Why is he gone like this? "

"I heard that Miao Miao was abducted into the mountains. The police searched for her for a long time but couldn't find her. But the man who harmed her let go of her mouth a while ago. He said that Miao Miao didn't want to, so he slammed into the wall and died. Then The man was afraid, so he filled her into the well."

"Why did that man let go? Conscience found out?"

"He has a conscience! The man didn't say anything at first, because he didn't want to admit that the buyer broke the law. The police suspected that he was involved in murder, so he said it."

"What a good girl Miao Miao has suffered so many crimes, why?"

Gu Huaizhi knew that there were not so many reasons.There are some lunatics in this world who dare to trample on all human laws for [-]% profit; for [-]% profit, they are not even afraid of death.

No fear of the death of others or of oneself.

Gu Huaizhi looked at the posthumous photos placed in front of the mourning hall. The girl had long hair, soft eyebrows, and a small mole at the corner of her mouth.She smiled, and there seemed to be bright moonlight in her smile.

Her name is Cai Miaomiao.

Gu Huaizhi took out the employment certificate that he carried with him, hid in a secluded place and gradually disappeared.He walked slowly into the mourning hall and found a lot of jasmine flowers inside.The light scent is scattered on the light white petals, filling the clean and tidy mourning hall with cold fragrance.

An ice coffin is symbolically placed in the middle.When Cai Miaomiao was discovered, her flesh and flesh had completely decayed, and only her bones were brought back.

Gu Huaizhi didn't dare to look inside the ice coffin. He put the little pink hair rope aside, as if he was afraid of disturbing the girl, and said softly, "Go home, Miao Miao."

Suddenly a wind blew up outside, and jasmine rustled in the room.

The sky is bright tonight, and there are countless stars floating in the Milky Way.The bright white moonlight fell on the asphalt road like a soft silk handkerchief.

Gu Huaizhi left the community where Cai Miaomiao lived, and walked all the way to Zhao Suyi's house under the moonlight.He opened the door with the key and turned on the light in the living room.Before Zhao Suyi left, Gu Huaizhi came over to clean his room when he was free, commonly known as wiping the table and mopping the floor.

He first found a towel that looked like a rag and washed it clean, and used it to wipe the table.Gu Huaizhi wiped very seriously, and while working, he muttered: "Zhao Suyi, there are a few things I want to tell you."

"I met a girl holding a bear doll in the orphanage. She was five or six years old and her name was Xiaoqi. Xiaoqi was abandoned by her parents to human traffickers. When she was locked up, she met a girl named Cai Miaomiao. , she called her sister."

"Xiaoqi and Cai Miaomiao lived together for a while. They have a very good relationship. Miaomiao even gave Xiaoqi a bear doll. But then Miaomiao was taken away and forced into a van. Xiaoqi Call that van a long monster. Maybe in her eyes, that car is a monster that can eat people."

"Xiaoqi didn't know where Miao Miao went. After being rescued, Miao Miao became her only thought because of her parents' abandonment. She remembered her words and kept hugging the little bear she gave her. Later, Miao Miao also I found it, and Miao Miao was sold to the mountains to be the wife of an old bachelor. Miao Miao didn’t want to commit suicide, and her body was buried in a well, and only a pair of bones remained when she was found.”

Gu Huaizhi threw the towel and sat on the carpet in the living room: "I heard something about Miao Miao from other people. She is a beautiful girl with many talents, and she is calm and rational. I want to know her, but she Already dead. I would also like to see Xiao Qi really happy, but it's not possible."

"They obviously had a better life, but they were all ruined. These are just two girls I know, and there are many people I don't know, who were trafficked, forced, and lived in strange places that they didn't belong to. life." Gu Huaizhi lowered his head and lay down on the small coffee table, "I miss you, Zhao Suyi, please talk to me."

Gu Huaizhi waited for a while, but there was no response.So he picked up the towel again, and then wiped the table.After clearing the small tea table in the living room, he went to Zhao Suyi's bedroom.

Zhao Suyi's bedroom had been closed all year round, and Gu Huaizhi had never entered it.

This time, Gu Huaizhi pushed open the bedroom door and saw the scene inside Zhao Suyi's bedroom.A room full of jellycat Bashful bunnies, big and small, of all kinds.There are a few particularly ugly and cute ones, which are placed in the most obvious places.

There's also a bunch of kaomoji balls on the bed, as well as a pair of corgi and funny throw pillows.There was a big red banner on the wall, which read:

"Here's brother? Come on, don't you think my room is very cute? I've collected it for a long time, please help me clean it well 0w0"

Gu Huaizhi suddenly laughed.

The author has something to say: "There are some lunatics in this world who dare to trample on all human laws for [-]% profit; for [-]% profit, they are not even afraid of death." According to QWQ changed from a passage in Marx's "Das Kapital"

☆, a promise (8)

Gu Huaizhi took off the big red banner pasted on the wall, moved a chair in the dining room, and stepped on it to wipe off the glue marks left on the wallpaper.

He quickly tidied up Zhao Suyi's bedroom, and picked up a shy pink bunny bunny.Bonnie Rabbit was tidied up not long ago. It smells of detergent and feels soft and comfortable.

Gu Huaizhi came to Zhao Suyi's study room, and saw a thick thread-bound book spread out on the table, and a black carbon pen beside it.He walked over and found that this "book" was actually Zhao Suyi's diary.

It also has an extremely arrogant name called "Phoenix God Sovereign Ying Ming Lu".The latest page reads: "After I walked to Yuyang, I felt that our family Huaizhi and Axuan seemed to be on a nearby train. I guess something bad happened again. I was worried, so I went down halfway and bought a piece of paper. Get a ticket to get on the train. Ah Xuan, a stupid boy, was almost squeezed into the railroad tracks outside the door."

"It's weird. Our Huaizhi family has always been rich. When we go out, it's either a business seat or first class, or it's our own plane. How can we squeeze the green train this time? He has no money. Does this mean that I can support him? Already? I found Huaizhi, who was sleeping. I stuffed 300 yuan to the aunt next to me and sat next to him."

"The green leather train is not fast, and the afternoon sun is not dazzling. I sit next to him and feel very comfortable."

"Huaizhi met Zheng Er's mirror, and I sneaked into his dream. I saw him in a school office, with a radio and a mop in his hand, and a washbasin on his head. He looked funny and wanted to laugh. I teased him a few words and followed him all the way from afar."

"When I was about to arrive in Yuyang, I withdrew from Huaizhi's dream and carried him out. Hey, why is he so heavy? How many bowls of rice did he eat at noon? When I carried him two days ago, I didn't It’s so heavy, could it be that he didn’t have enough to eat before? I have to write this down, three buns are not enough for him, try feeding five next time.”

"If Huaizhi gives me some motivation, even if he weighs 180 pounds, I can move my back. I watched a TV series before, and I remembered a sentence 'My baby Cai Genhua'. Oh, my baby Gu Huaizhi, he If you kiss me, let alone walk with him on your back, I can turn into a bird and fly with him on your back."

Gu Huaizhi: "..."

He sat on the chair, hugged the pink Bonnie rabbit tightly with one hand, casually flipped forward a few pages, and wrote about the past before Zhao Suyi arrived in Huangquan:

"On March [-], drink with Bailong in Kunlun."

"On March [-]th, play cards with Bailong in Kunlun."

"On March [-]th, drink with Bailong in Kunlun."

"On March [-], play cards with Bailong in Kunlun."

"Zhao Suyi, Zhao Suyi, you majestic god, how can you be so depraved and addicted to sensuality? That goddamn bastard Bailong will come to lure him again, ignore him, what's wrong with the prince? Dude, drinking and playing cards all day long Doing business and delaying my progress, if he comes again, he will be kicked out of the house!"

"On March [-]th, drinking and playing cards with Bailong in Kunlun was very pleasant."

"On March [-]th, Bailong was drunk, weaved a small wreath and put it on my head, and sang to me half a crooked song in the world: 'Yanyan is light, Yingying is soft, and she is clear and beautiful. Xu see. The night is long and the love is weak? The early spring is lovesick.' Then there were rumors in the heavens that I had a relationship with him that was beyond friendship. The Northern Heaven Emperor suspected that I was seducing his son. They all show their dissatisfaction with me, find fault with me, hey."

"On March [-]th, continue to drink and play cards. During the period, I told Bailong about the rumors circulating between us in the heavens. He asked me if I wanted to clarify this matter, and I said yes. He nodded and drank a lot of wine , drank too much again."

"On May [-]th, I drank too much this time, and Bailong asked me if I had any wishes to fulfill. This bastard doesn't do serious things in Huangquan, and spends his days helping ghosts. Asking me this question is probably a professional habit." I told him that I wanted to go to the rivers and lakes, and he said he had heard my wish. I was talking nonsense about this wish, because I still have to guard the mascot on Kunlun Mountain, and I can’t go anywhere. The mascot is Tianzhu, It sounds terrible, but now the sky and the earth are stable and won’t fall down. It’s useless for viewing other than watching birds, and it’s not a mascot. I hope it will fall by itself, but it’s still quite strong, which is good.”

"On November [-]th, Bailong came to Kunlun to drink with me. I was a little drunk. He said he wanted to give me a gift. Before I was happy, this bastard took out a mirror. Create an illusion. There is also a little ghost named Zheng Er, who locked me in. I swung in the illusion of the mirror for a while, and asked Zheng Er how the little ghost got out. The little ghost was full of lies. Split the illusion. When I split the mirror and went out, the gods told me that the mascot was knocked down by the prince, and the prince was hit by nine hundred thunders, and his soul was scattered."

"The mascot is down, and I can go to the rivers and lakes. But I feel boring again. He is not the only one who can drink and play cards with me. But no one can drink me anymore, and no one is worse than my card skills , I just miss him. I’m not reconciled, why should this bastard leave me? Don’t even think about it! I plan to find all the souls that Bailong lost, and then send him to reincarnate through a back door.”

......

There was a lot of blank paper in the middle of the diary. Gu Huaizhi skipped folding these blank pages and continued to scroll down. The timeline span is very large:

"On July 2005, 7, I found him."

"Passing by the Furong River in Qizhou, I heard someone making a wish. The voice should be a child. Tsk, brat, does he understand? Don't make a wish at night, in case some idle god passes by and hears it, he will Come true. Trading with a god is a very dangerous thing, but luckily he met me."

"I followed the sound to find it, and saw an old house not far from the river. It was not small. It seemed to be a mansion of a certain warlord in the past. It should be a cultural heritage now. It is much more powerful than a villa. Big family It’s a big family. There’s a terrace on the second floor, and there’s a boy and a big yellow-haired dog on the terrace. The dog found me, stood in front of the boy and barked at me. My mother, It even dares to challenge the gods. In ancient times, a dog bit Lu Dongbin, and now a phoenix is ​​being barked. This yellow-haired dog is really a fierce dog."

"But I am very happy. I found him. His name is Gu Huaizhi, and he is very cute. I heard his wish. He said that his mother passed away not long ago. This incident hit my father very hard, and he was also sick. It's very heavy. Gu Huaizhi wants his father to get better, completely. He also said that his mother has already left, and if God has to take someone away from home, then take him away. Anyway, he You are not good, and you always make your father angry, not as good as your brother. This is really a child talking nonsense."

"However, I heard his wish. As an agreement, I will help him fulfill his wish, and I will take him away. It is a pity that he is too young now, and I can't coax the child. Forget it, wait for him to grow up I'll come to him again...just after graduating from university, and he will belong to me after more than ten years."

After Gu Huaizhi flipped through the pages of "nothing happened", "I'm so handsome", "sleep" and other unnutritious content, he found this page:

"I saw Gu Huaizhi again when he was about to enter his first year of high school. I went to see him on a whim. Tsk, the longer the better. His father called him to him and told him that he would be sent to Qi State No. [-] Middle School. He was not very willing, and asked if he could go abroad like his brother."

"His father said: 'Your new classmates are all excellent in character and learning. They all use their own grades to test the provincial key points. They all have their own advantages and are worth learning. When you go abroad at your age, you can't tell what you will be like. Be honest and stay under my nose, get along well with your new classmates, don't make trouble for me by making publicity all day long. I will also lose your pocket money, and change your stinking problems...' "

"Huizhi was obviously upset, and left without listening to what his father had said. He went upstairs to the bedroom, locked the door behind him, picked up the plush rabbit half as tall as a person on the bed, and punched him a few times. I know why he didn't I was happy, but I felt that the old man was eccentric and wronged. After a while, he threw the rabbit on the ground and lay on the bed with his head covered to sleep. I sat by the bed and looked at Huaizhi. I picked up the big rabbit on the ground and patted it. Put it next to him cleanly. I thought to myself: I will protect you in a few years. It doesn’t matter if you don’t remember anything, as long as I remember.”

"This old guy didn't tell me anything, how can I remember?" Gu Huaizhi looked sleepy, and he didn't plan to go back to his home tonight.After closing Zhao Suyi's diary, she got up and washed briefly, and went to Zhao Suyi's bedroom.He put those soft white balls on the bed aside, lay down and fell asleep.

Gu Huaizhi had a dream in which he was about to celebrate his birthday.Because Gu Qing is usually too busy to go home, she only prepared gifts.Gu Huaizhi invited a group of friends to play at home.At sunset, the old house is very lively.White Rose is watching TV in the living room leaning against a half-person-high plush rabbit, Bai Qiulian and Mu Changong are sitting on the sofa eating potato chips, Axue is trying on a new dress in the cloakroom, Dahuang is carrying a rabbit from the garden in front of the house Running to the garden behind the house, Zhang Xiao was helping Xu Xing to water the flowers, Wang Xiangqian was playing beside him, Xuanxuan played cards with Cai Miaomiao and Xiaoqi.

During this period, Gu Huaizhi was a little tired from tossing around, and was about to go to the balcony on the second floor to sober up.

But when Gu Huaizhi reached the second floor, he found a person standing on the balcony.The man looked gentle, with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his straight nose.He was wearing a well-fitting white shirt, holding a handful of white roses in his hands.

In the sunset, he looked at him quietly, and handed out a large bouquet of flowers in his hand, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, showing a gentle smile: "I'm Zhao Suyi, happy birthday, Gu Huaizhi."

"I remember." Gu Huaizhi's heart beat fast, he was stunned for a while, and reached out to take the fragrant flower.Seeing that Zhao Suyi was about to leave, he quickly stopped him, "Wait a minute."

Zhao Suyi looked back at him: "What's wrong?"

Gu Huaizhi didn't speak, and approached Zhao Suyi, looking at him and smiling.The back of his hand holding a large bouquet of white roses was turned back, and he suddenly kissed him.

The phoenix flowers in the afterglow are blooming brilliantly, the swallows are light and the Yingying is soft in the shade of the trees.

The author has something to say: From the east of Mian, Ding Wei arrived in Jinling on the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, and wrote it because of a dream on the river.

Yanyan is light and graceful, and Yingying is delicate and soft, clearly seeing Hua Xu again.Ye Chang fights for love?The early spring was stained by lovesickness.Farewell to the postscript, farewell to the needle and thread, and leave the soul to go far away.The bright moon in Huainan is cold and the thousand mountains are cold, and no one cares about them when they return.

——Jiang Kui's "Treading on Shasha·Yanyan Lightness"

It just happened to be a poem about dreaming about my sweetheart. I just remembered the name wrongly. I was so embarrassed, so I changed it.

Anze Road Welfare Home

As the night darkened, Zhou Cong lay on the bed, pretending to be asleep.He heard the teacher's footsteps gradually fade away, and slowly opened his eyes.There was a light in the corridor, and the faint light was reflected on the wall through the small glass window on the door.

A round watch was hung on the wall, and the second hand was "clicking".Zhou Cong stared at the watch, and suddenly, the second and minute hands stopped, as if they were stuck to the dial, and time seemed to freeze.

There was excitement in Zhou Cong's eyes, and he called softly: "Sister Ah Xuan!"

"I'm here." The figure of the girl gradually appeared in front of Zhou Cong.Zhou Cong is not surprised by this. From the time he can remember, Xuanxuan will appear by his side from time to time.I always thought that I was dreaming, until not long ago my parents died in a car accident, and the family members were unable to support him, so they sent him to this orphanage.

Zhou Cong was timid, and he always cried on the first night when he first arrived at the orphanage. The teachers would not listen to his coaxing, and the other children couldn't sleep because of the noise.

That's when the girl officially appeared in front of Zhou Cong. She wiped away his tears and frowned, "Zhou Cong, don't cry, I'll be with you."

Zhou Cong asked stupidly: "Sister, who are you?"

"You can just call me Axuan."

"Sister Ah Xuan, will you stay with me all the time?"

"No. Next year, after your sixth birthday, you won't be able to see me."

"Why can't I see it?"

"Children have yin and yang eyes. Before the age of six, it is easy to see things that adults cannot see. You can see me now because of our destiny in the previous life. When we are six years old, the yin and yang eyes will automatically close. No matter how destined we are , you can’t even see me. After all, I’m a ghost.”

"Zhou Cong, during the few months that you can really see me, I can come and see you every night."

At this time, the moonlight was rolling on the window sill.Zhou Cong looked at Xuanxuan, smiled and said, "Sister Axuan, I read a story from a storybook today."

Xuanxuan asked curiously, "What story?"

"Snail girl!" Zhou Cong sat up from the bed, cleared his throat and said solemnly, "A long time ago, there lived a kind boy by the sea. He picked up a snail on the beach and took it home to feed it carefully. The first The next day the boy went out fishing as usual, but when he got home, he found that the food was ready. He felt very strange, who would cook for him?"

"The boy deliberately got up early in the morning, pretended to go out, and then secretly hid outside the door and looked into the house. He saw a beautiful girl coming out of the water tank, helping him clean up the house, lighting the fire and cooking. The boy felt very sad. Surprised, he opened the door and ran in, only to find that there was only an empty snail shell left in the water tank for feeding snails."

"He picked up the snail shell and looked at it carefully, then went to the girl and asked her where she came from. The girl told him that she was a snail raised in the water to repay her kindness. She also said that since the boy found her , she is leaving."

"Before the snail girl left, she left the snail shell to the young man, and used it to store food. At least there was no problem with food and clothing. A few years later, the young man became rich through his hard work, and built a temple for the snail girl in memory of her."

Zhou Cong blinked and asked Xuanxuan: "Sister, are you also a snail girl? My birthday is coming soon."

"After your birthday this year, I won't come to see you." Xuanxuan didn't hide anything, "And I'm not a snail girl, I'm a ghost, or an evil ghost that can eat people. You, Better stay away from me."

Zhou Cong asked hesitantly, "Will my sister come to celebrate my birthday the day after tomorrow?"

"Yes." Xuanxuan stretched out his little finger, his smiling eyes sparkled with stars, "If you don't believe me, we'll pull the hook."

"The pull hook!" Zhou Cong regained his energy, and he also stretched out his little finger, hooking it with Xuanxuan's, "We have agreed that the pull hook cannot be changed for 100 years, and whoever changes is a puppy!"

He let go of his hand, rubbed his little finger subconsciously twice, lowered his head and muttered in a low voice: "Sister, we...we have agreed, you must come."

Xuanxuan thought that Zhou Cong looked cute, so he couldn't help laughing: "Come with me, I'll take you to a good place to play."

After all, Zhou Cong was a child. As soon as he heard the word "play", he immediately threw off the quilt, jumped out of bed and put on his clothes and shoes: "Sister Ah Xuan, where shall we go to play?"

Xuanxuan took out half a piece of chalk, walked to the wall, drew a door and came out.She held Zhou Cong with one hand, and opened the doorknob with the other.

A door painted on the wall, dividing the world into two parts.The bright sunlight poured out of the door in an instant, blending with the moonlight outside the door, and the boundaries between light and dark were not clear.It was like a drop of boiling water falling on the smooth ice, and a hazy steam rose.

Xuanxuan took Zhou Cong into the world in the gate, Zhou Cong adapted to the sunlight and began to observe his surroundings.He found himself in a large playground. The playground looked like it had just been built, and the equipment was [-]% new. There were many adults and children in the playground, and it was very lively.

Xuanxuan led Zhou Cong around, very generously: "What do you want to play? I'll treat you."

Zhou Cong compared the number of people queuing up for each entertainment item. Although he had a lot of things he wanted to try, time passed too fast. He didn't want to waste too much because of queuing, so he picked a relatively small number of people: "Let's play on the swing. , I want to go on a swing."

Xuanxuan didn't know what he thought of, and his expression was a little unnatural: "It doesn't cost money to play on the swing."

"Isn't that better?" Zhou Cong found an empty swing and sat on it, swinging by himself.

Xuanxuan was watching him from the side.

Zhou Cong noticed her abnormality, and gradually stopped: "Sister Ah Xuan, what's wrong with you?"

Xuanxuan sat on the swing next to Zhou Cong: "Watching you swing, I remembered something."

Zhou Cong asked: "What happened in the previous life?"

Xuanxuan smiled: "That's right, you were older than me in your previous life, brother Zhou Cong. Brother Zhou Cong said he would give me a swing."

"Sister Ah Xuan, can you tell me something about you and Brother Zhou Cong?"

Xuanxuan was surprised by Zhou Cong's address for himself, and then he was relieved that Zhou Cong and him were two people in the previous life, and now there is no so-called brother Zhou Cong.She thought for a while and said: "Actually, there is nothing to talk about, but I almost married him. My father arranged a marriage for me. He said that brother Zhou Cong is a very good person and worthy of me. "

"I also stayed at Brother Zhou Cong's house for a while. There is a big crabapple in his house. Brother Zhou Cong said that he would make me a swing on the tree. It will look beautiful when it blooms in spring."

"Not long after that, something happened in my family, and my grandfather wanted to kill my father. My father is a great man, he is a prince, and he will be the emperor in the future. It just so happened that someone didn't want to make my father an emperor, so he wronged him. My old emperor grandfather When I grow up, my mind is not very bright, I hear that the wind is rain, I believe in those nonsense, and tell my father to die."

"I didn't understand anything at the time, but I knew that many people had been tossing around for a long time. Soon, my father would leave and go to other places. Brother Zhou Cong gave me some money in private, and took me to flee to I went to the city gate to find Dad. Brother Zhou Cong told me to take good care of myself, and if someone came to chase me, I could run as far as I could. The crabapple tree is mine, and the swing is also mine, so don’t worry about it.”

"I promised Brother Zhou Cong, but I didn't do it. I still died on the way to escape, and I couldn't run far. I did it for myself
