Walking through the neon-lit street corner and into the dark alley, it is as if time and space have changed and you have entered another world.

"Which bear kid broke the street lamp again?"

Ye Fan glanced up and found that even the moon was covered by clouds tonight, so he could only rush home one foot deep and one foot shallow, today is the fifteenth day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar, commonly known as Halloween's Day, it should have been hot, but I don't know if it is psychological, he only feels a little cold.

Ye Fan is twenty-three years old this year, graduated two years ago, and is currently working as a teacher in a martial arts gym.

He lives in an urban village, where he grew up, but the news of the demolition has recently caused a bit of uproar, and the peace of the past has been completely lost.

In fact, for Ye Fan, he didn't want to move out of here, because this place has his entire childhood memories, and compared to the indifferent high-rise buildings in the neighborhood, he prefers the current kind of small courtyard, a small world of his own, cool under the moon, and cooking tea in the tandoor, so unhappy.

It's a pity that his little arms and legs are destined to be unable to stop the pace of the development of the times, or all kinds of entanglements of interests, and over the years, those familiar faces have been disappearing, and those who have the ability have long moved out of here, although the rest are not all old, weak, sick and disabled, but they also have their own hardships.

And Ye Fan's parents died early, he was pulled by his grandparents to grow up, and in the year he graduated, his grandparents also passed away one after another, and he was the only one left in this huge city.

When passing by the entrance of the village, Ye Fan subconsciously glanced to the side, he remembered that there was an ancient well and an ancient tree, which was now enclosed and protected as cultural relics.

But unexpectedly, this glance made Ye Fan stunned, only to see that the ancient well was like a fountain, emitting white light outward, and it seemed that countless fireflies were flying at the mouth of the well, flashing and flashing, but at this moment Ye Fan didn't feel beautiful at all, but a chill jumped from the soles of his feet to the tips of his hair, and his brain was blank for a moment.

"Xiao Fan, stay away from that well, be careful that something catches you in. ”

"Then who fell into the well, the police went down and found no one. ”

"If you don't obey again, you will be thrown into the village well. ”

"The well used to have water, but it was red. ”

At this moment, countless fragments tumbled out from the depths of his memory, and even Ye Fan didn't know how he could think of so many things in a short period of time, and in the end, he remembered what day it was, July 15, Halloween.

"it!"

Ye Fan immediately ran away, he dared to swear, this was definitely the fastest run in his life, and he didn't even have the kung fu to take out the key when he got to the door, he stepped on the wall ladder and turned over, and when he landed, he found that his legs were already weak, and he fell directly into the yard.

Lying on the ground, Ye Fan gasped heavily, his heart was still beating rapidly, his scalp was still tense for a while, and his whole body was soaked with sweat, until he recovered after a while, only to feel that there was no strength in his body.

Ye Fan asked himself that his courage is not small, you must know that when he was a child, because his health was not very good, he was sent by his grandfather to a friend to learn Xingyi Boxing, and after so many years of perseverance, although it is rarely used in actual combat, it is not a problem to ask himself against three or five big men.

didn't think about it, when he really experienced it, he realized that he really looked up to himself, but thinking back to the picture at that time, Ye Fan still felt frightened, after all, since he was a child, he has always listened to the weird legend about the ancient well, so he stayed away from the ancient well, but he didn't expect it to be so unbearable tonight.

"What the hell is that?"

Lying on the bed after waiting for a bath, Ye Fan still kept recalling.

"Could it be that there are grave robbers digging up treasures?"

Ye Fan thought about it, and then felt that it was unlikely, as early as a few years ago, when it was set up as a cultural relics protection, someone went down to investigate, and there was nothing in it, and the tomb robbers would not be so stupid, I don't know how to cover it up, not to mention that today is Halloween, which tomb robber is stupid enough to go today?

It's just that Ye Fan wanted to break his head, and he didn't think of a possible fact, and finally fell asleep in a daze.

Early in the morning, Ye Fan had just finished punching under the apricot tree when he heard the courtyard door being slammed heavily, and when he opened the door, he saw a white fat man looking in.

"Yezi, why did you get up so early, didn't disturb your good work?"

The fat man in front of him is named Zhou Yu, nicknamed Lao Yu, it is said that his father loves to read the Three Kingdoms the most, especially that Zhou Lang, but unfortunately when his father filled in his name later, he forgot how to write Yu in excitement, so he simply wrote a fish, Zhou Yu.

At least this fat man has not lacked fish to eat since he was a child, so he has grown white and fat.

The two have been classmates since kindergarten, and they have been like this until high school, their fate can be described as deep, and their foundation is also full, but later in the college entrance examination, the fat man lost his footing, and since then the son inherited his father's business and embarked on this road of no return to climb the wall and climb the house.

Ye Fan was a little withdrawn when he was a child, so he didn't have many close friends, and the fat man in front of him was definitely the one with the best relationship with him, in the words of the fat man, it was so good that two people wore a pair of pants.

Don't look at what this fat man is doing, but his net worth is scary, maybe because of this line of work, plus good vision, the fat man and his father are frugal, and he bought a lot of houses in this city early, plus the later demolition compensation, and the house prices have been going up vigorously over the years, and now the fat man's net worth is at least eight figures, just eating rent, he can raise him with thick skin and fat, but this guy did not get carried away because of this, sat and ate empty, but took over his Lao Tzu's business, and drove a broken bread around the city all day long。

"I want you to bother. Ye Fan said casually, he naturally understood what the so-called good thing in the fat man's mouth was, because next door to him, there lived a pair of mother and daughter, the older one was thirty years, mature and graceful, and it was a rare superlative, although the small one was only eight or nine years old, but it was also innocent and beautiful, but when I thought of the cunning big eyes, the word innocence was really a bit ruined.

"I said, how come people near the water, the building has become rotten wood when it comes to you? Zhou Yu's face was full of pity, and he came to the yard by himself, looking at the huge apricot tree and drooling.

This apricot tree is seven or eight meters high, the dense branches have long stretched out of the wall, between the countless leaves, dozens of green fruits looming, the apricot tree was planted by Ye Fan when he was a child, and it has been more than ten years.

It's just that the origin of this apricot tree is a little mysterious, and even a little different, before it is ripe, it is bitter and astringent, and it is difficult to swallow, only after the first frost, it will ripen overnight, become sweet and delicious, and even cure diseases.

The only pity is that the fruit produced every year is too small, sometimes only half a hundred, and when it is less, it is not even ten fingers.

"Don't look at it, it's going to be two months, I came to you this time because I have a big deal to do. Ye Fan directly ignored Zhou Yu's words, and he didn't know who it was, but he couldn't even say anything in front of others.

"What's the big deal?" As soon as he heard the big thing, Zhou Yu's eyes lit up directly.

"You'll find out later. Ye Fan hurriedly changed his clothes and pulled the fat man away, and on the wall, a black cat walked by proudly, and then barked at the apricot tree.
