As the sun set, the weather gradually became a little cooler, and the second grandfather called us back to the house at the door to talk, afraid that the grandfather would suffer from the cold.

"Grandpa, you're still so mysterious, you can't say anything about shadow art yet. I asked with a grin.

"Leave some thoughts for you young people. ”

Grandpa beckoned to go into the house, Sun Shiqi and I saw that the sun was about to set and planned to go back to grandpa's house first, the second grandfather asked us at the door of the house if we had dinner here before leaving, we thanked the second grandfather, and grandpa said goodbye, got up and walked to grandpa's house.

On the way home, I was walking in front, Sun Shiqi followed me behind, and she didn't speak to me along the way, I really couldn't help it, stopped and turned my head to ask her:

"I just patted you kindly to comfort you, why did you talk so fiercely, wasn't it all good before. ”

Sun Shiqi looked at me, suddenly didn't know how to answer, paused for a few seconds and said:

"I'm like this to boys, if you're uncomfortable, you'd better ignore me. ”

Sun Shiqi's eyebrows were tightly locked, and her face was angry.

"Isn't it good to talk in the past two days? I haven't seen you so fierce. ”

"I said that if you don't feel well, ignore me, I hate boys touching me. ”

After saying that, Sun Shiqi ran quickly to her grandfather's house, and I had to run home after her.

"You took the initiative to let me hug me that day, why did you suddenly hate boys touching you again. "I thought to myself, this girl's mind is really incomprehensible.

Ran to the door of my grandfather's house, the sky was already a little dark, but every household had not turned on the lights, Sun Shiqi and I hid in the shadow wall at the door to see if my mother was guarding the door of the house.

I saw that the whole family was watching TV in the living room on the first floor, and we didn't say hello to our mother when we came out, so it seemed that we could only go inside.

Sun Shiqi and I went into the living room with our heads down, waiting for my mother's reprimand, but the whole family was watching TV, as if no one had noticed us entering the door.

We also turned our heads to watch TV, it happened to be the local news that yesterday the incident of crashing on the kilometer to Grandpa's house, the two vehicles that caused the accident were stolen vehicles, and the cars did not leave any useful clues, and the police asked the masses to report it.

The two of us each found a small stool and sat down to watch TV with everyone, and it was my grandmother who noticed us

"Let's eat when we are all back, come to Xiaohua to clean up the table. Grandma beckoned Mom to clean up the table.

At this time, my mother noticed us, and her face was angry, and my mother was just about to have a seizure but was stopped by my father.

"It's all back, it's not too late, don't talk about them, don't always scold them for the New Year. ”

Mom glared at Dad and then at us and began to clean up the table.

I thought to myself, "Dad, you are really more than successful and more than ruined, you let your mother scold us and we may still have good fruits to eat, you made her suffocate, and we died even worse." ”

I looked at Sun Shiqi and said, "After eating, we must be good-looking, you wait." ”

Sun Shiqi didn't know her mother's temper, and looked at me incomprehensibly, and we also moved stools to prepare for dinner.

After eating, I pulled Sun Shiqi and asked her to go upstairs with me to leave this place of right and wrong, and we just got up when we heard my mother say.

"You go upstairs and come down with a pen and a notebook, and I will test you fifty words, all of which are from the first year of high school. Mom said lightly.

I said a word to Sun Shiqi

"It's over. ”

Sun Shiqi looked at me stupidly, didn't understand what it meant, and followed me upstairs.

As soon as I entered the house, I heard Sun Shiqi calling me, I was nervous, and as soon as she called me now, I was nervous, and something happened to eighty percent.

Sun Shiqi pointed out the window

"Here it comes again. ”

"Who's here again. I didn't react, and suddenly gasped.

I looked out the window, and there was a huge shadow on the mountain in the sky, like a pillar of smoke from a volcanic eruption, still moving, as if it was different from the one that came last night.

There was still the last ray of light left by the sun in the sky, but it was slowly covered by the black cloth pulled from the night sky, and the moon in the sky was already a waning moon, and the light was not as bright as yesterday.

The shadow in the distance seemed to be clouds and smoke, and although it was moving, it was not as fast as the illusion of yesterday, and the main thing was that it did not move towards us, but moved farther away.

"It didn't come to us either, and it doesn't look like a shadow, it's too big, bigger than a mountain. I looked at Sun Shiqi and said.

"Really?" Sun Shiqi was still a little skeptical.

"Do you want to hear ghost stories?" I quipped. "I didn't wait yesterday, I want to wait today. ”

"I hate it!" Sun Shiqi was a little embarrassed by what I said.

"If you really want to hear me tell you, I have the full collection of ghost blowing lights on my phone. ”

"You hate it, you're talking nonsense, be careful I beat you!"

"Why are you so violent, and can violence solve the problem?"

"Doesn't solve the problem, it solves you. ”

I looked at Sun Shiqi with an innocent face, and I really couldn't understand why a girl liked to fight and kill so much. But now it's nice to stand side by side with her in front of the window and watch the sun go down.

As we looked out the window together, we heard my mother shouting from the yard downstairs:

"What are you admiring, come down. ”

I trembled in my heart, knowing that the time of bad luck was coming, I kindly said to Sun Shiqi:

"Are you sure you've memorized all the words in your freshman textbook?"

She looked at me and said with a look of disdain:

"I don't speak English as well as you, but I don't have a problem with words. ”

"It's okay, you'll know what your problem is in a moment. I secretly laughed and ran back to the house, got a pen and paper, and came down.

After Sun Shiqi and I arrived on the first floor, we were called by my mother to the side room, which was a utility room, which was full of some New Year's food and some old things at home, and there was a table in it, and the two of us sat at the table.

"What are you two doing, what are you admiring?" asked Mom.

"We, we're looking at the other side of the mountain, it seems to be raining, and there is a big cloud. Sun Shiqi said first.

Mom looked at me suspiciously, and I nodded.

"Are you ready? I read the first 25 words and you write the Chinese meaning, and the last 25 read the Chinese meaning and you write the English words. ”

"Ready. We said.

Mom began to read the words, stopping for two or three seconds each, and after reading 50 words, I wrote 43 correctly, and Sun Shiqi only wrote 35 correctly.

I knew that the volcano was about to erupt, and Sun Shiqi also knew where the problem was, because she had to memorize the over-the-top outline in the textbook, and it seemed that she still didn't listen to my mother's lecture carefully in class.

Mom smiled happily and said, "Okay, get ready to be punished!"

Sun Shiqi was a little surprised and said, "This will still be punished." ”

"Yes, Kiki, you live with us now, then you will be punished like Dongdong. Mom's words did not favor Sun Shiqi.

"What kind of punishment? Sun Shiqi asked a little scared.

"I won't punish you at school, because there are too many people, I can't punish you, and now I will make it difficult for the two of you. Mom said happily.

I was a little scared and stretched out my hand to my mother, I was very afraid of hitting the palm of my hand, and said to Sun Shiqi, "It's the palm of the hand." I can't write 5 hits for one, I'll hit 35 hits, count yourself. ”

Sun Shiqi looked at my mother hesitantly:

"Aunt Yan, can you change the punishment for another one, I'm a little scared. ”

Are you so good Are you afraid of hitting the palm, I thought to myself, in fact, I just want to see Sun Shiqi make a fool of herself, she is going to beat 75 times, and it is estimated that my mother will not beat her so much, this time there is finally an unlucky guy who will be punished with me.

"Knock Knock cries every time you get beaten, you will know in a moment how kind I am to you at school. After my mother finished speaking, she took out a bamboo ruler, which is the torture instrument at home, the torture tool that has accompanied me since I was a child.

Sun Shiqi was a little dumbfounded after listening to her mother's words, probably thinking about how perverted her mother should be, and she was still called benevolent at school.

Mom hit my left palm hard, the palm suddenly felt swollen and then a pain from the hand to the left arm to the whole body, I gritted my teeth and didn't shout, I didn't want to make a fool of myself in front of Sun Shiqi, the palm of my hand was immediately red and swollen, my mother was really ruthless, and I had to blame my father for talking too much.

"One" I gritted my teeth and counted, this is stipulated by my mother, I count by myself, and I have to start anew if I remember a mistake.

There was a sound of "popping" and my number of reports coming from the hut, I felt that the air was frozen, I lowered my head and bit and endured, Sun Shiqi bit her lip and watched me be punished.

My left hand was numb and swollen, and suddenly my left wrist felt a burning sensation, and the area that looked like an eye began to feel a pulsing pinprick sensation.

My body felt like it was swelling again, this time it was more real than before, I was a little scared, and my head felt like the world was spinning.

"It's coming out, Sun Shiqi took my mother out. I shouted.

Sun Shiqi was stunned at first, and desperately pulled her mother out the door.

Mom didn't know what was going on, thinking we were doing something famous:

"Who's coming out. ”

"Let's go. "I was weak.

A dark shadow appeared.
