Chapter III

Zhou Yiyi walked alone on the path home. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

She is now very familiar with this path.

In the past, she walked with Father Zhou, but now she is the only one on the way home.

Zhou Yiyi hung his head and walked silently, the sky was as yellow as a straw cloth, and the frogs in the river fields on both sides were chirping, one wave was stronger than the other. When she was about to get home, Zhou Yiyi suddenly saw a figure standing in the distance at the door of her house, standing motionless, like a wooden pillar under the corridor.

Who could it be?

Zhou Yiyi thought to herself.

In the whole Zhoujia Village, only her family is far away, and the village is located at the foot of the back mountain, and everyone in the village except Uncle Ge's family sees her as if they are seeing something obscure, so they can't be who in the village.

Could it be that a passer-by mistakenly got lost in the back mountain? Seeing someone here, she appeared at her door?

The more Zhou Yiyi thought about it, the more reasonable she felt, the mountains behind her were very deep, that is, when Zhou's father was alive in the past, he often went into the mountains to hunt and give her food, and he never went deep into the mountains. It can be seen that the back mountain cannot be entered. You'll have to tell that person quickly.

Zhou Yiyi hurriedly increased her foot speed and trotted over.

"Hey, who are you?" Zhou Yiyi gasped and ran to stand behind the arrival, bent over and supporting with one hand on his waist, "What are you doing standing at the door of my house? Are you lost?"

The man was about eight feet tall, wearing a black robe, with a round jade pendant around his waist, the color of black and white intersected, with a white dot in the middle of the black, and a black dot in the middle of the white, looking a little like gossip. Hearing Zhou Yiyi speak, he slowly turned around, revealing a young and handsome face. With starry eyebrows, his face is like a crown of jade, and only a pair of eyes reveal innate indifference and alienation. After seeing the pitch-black circle under Zhou Yiyi's eyes, the thumb and index finger of his right hand hanging down by his side quickly clicked, and said lightly: "The girl lives here?"

Zhou Yiyi nodded, and when he saw that he didn't look like a bad person, he replied: "Yes, I live here, and this is my home." After a pause, he remembered something, took a step back, and said, "Stay away from me." After saying that, he felt that something was wrong, so he hurriedly ran into the house, half-closed the door, poked out half of his little head, and stretched out his finger to point to the road he had just come, "If you get lost and want to ask someone for directions, just follow this path, keep walking, keep walking, and you will be able to reach the village." There are a lot of people in the village, so you can just ask someone and you'll know how to get out. "The door is about to close.

"Wait a minute. ”

A hand landed on the wooden door in an instant, stopping Zhou Yiyi's movements.

"Do you have anything else?" Zhou Yiyi tilted her head and looked at him inexplicably, "I'm going home, and I won't be able to see the road clearly when it gets dark." Hurry up, do as I told you, and you'll be there until you get to the end. By the way, don't tell them that you've seen me, you've spoken to me, lest they won't talk to you when they get involved. Zhou Yiyi said and her voice lowered.

Although she doesn't admit that she is a lone star, she has a long heart, and she inevitably cares and minds a little about what the people in the village say. It is true that her parents died young, and it is also true that Uncle Ge treated her well but died young. Even the people she felt seemed to be related to her were not lucky. She seems to really have no family connection, relatives and friends...... What's more, she has had such a special place since she was a child, and she can see what no one can see......

It is said that it is better to believe that there is something than to believe that it is not.

She doesn't want to have anything to do with anyone anymore, and she doesn't want to affect anyone because of herself.

"You said don't talk to them about you," the young man looked at her, "why?"

"I ...... I...... I'm a little unlucky, everyone...... People don't like me very much. Zhou Yiyi lowered her head as she spoke, "Anyway, don't mention me." ”

"Bad luck...... the young man unconsciously dragged out his voice, raised his eyes to look at her carefully, and said, "I see that the girl's eyes are bruised, as if she has something on her mind, and she feels that she has no good sleep, and it is not a day or two." ”

Zhou Yiyi raised her head, quickly glanced at him, and quickly lowered her head, urging: "You go quickly, I'm going to close the door." As he spoke, he brushed away the young man's hand on the door, and quickly closed the door and unleashed it.

The young man stood in front of the door, with one hand behind his back, and his eyes stared straight at the door that had just been closed, and stood still for a long time. After a while, he turned around, looked up at the night on the horizon, the bright moon climbed into the sky, reflecting pieces of silver clouds and mist, and walked away.

Zhou Yiyi leaned against the door, listening to the footsteps outside the door, the sound became smaller and smaller until she couldn't hear it anymore, and then quietly opened the crack in the door and looked out, only to see that the night outside the door was thick, and the tall and slender black figure was no longer visible.

Zhou Yiyi closed the door again, slightly disappointed and sad in her heart.

This was the first stranger to take the initiative to talk to her, without disgust, without evasion, and looking at her openly. It's just that I'm afraid that if we meet again after tomorrow, he will never talk to her like he did just now.

Zhou Yiyi wiped the corners of her eyes.

Don't be sad, don't be sad. Aren't you already used to it? Daddy and Auntie are not here, Zhou Yiyi, you are alone, you have to be strong, you have to believe that a person can live well, and you can't make Daddy and Auntie worry about disappointment.

Snorting, Zhou Yiyi blinked and strode towards the house.

It's good to find a chance to see if you can talk to Uncle Ge in the evening. If you can talk, you can ask what happened.

Zhou Yiyi thought so.

The next morning, Zhou Yiyi got up with a yawn.

It's another night's dream, and she's long been used to it, but recently the protagonist in the dream has been replaced by Uncle Ge.

It's still the same dream: blood, reservoirs, people falling into it.

Zhou Yiyi still doesn't understand.

She couldn't speak, and neither did Uncle Ge, who died in the dream.

She could only watch him, come to the reservoir over and over again, and fall into the water over and over again.

But she had a gut feeling that there must be some reason for the dream.

Reservoirs, reservoirs......

Uncle Ge's body was found in the reservoir, and she dreamed that Uncle Ge fell into the reservoir, and Uncle Ge's death must be inseparable from the reservoir.

But what does it matter?

Why is there blood?

Zhou Yiyi yawned as she walked in the direction of the reservoir.

She's going to see it again.

The morning sun was not too violent, and the golden light shone straight through the clouds on the earth, and the horizon was dyed golden and bright.

I was a little hungry, and I only ate one cold steamed bun in the morning, and at this time Zhou Yiyi's stomach was already rumbling again.

"Well, good, I don't have anything to feed you right now. When we get to the edge of the reservoir in a while, I'll catch a few fish and grill them for you, okay? You are obedient, don't make any noise with me, you are so noisy that I don't have the strength to catch fish for you to eat. Zhou Yiyi touched her stomach with both hands, muttered, lowered her head and couldn't stop talking.

"Girl. A voice came from overhead.

Zhou Yiyi was startled, and when she looked up, she saw a young man standing at arm's length in front of her, facing her without moving.

Because he was against the light, the whole person was wrapped in golden light and shadow, and his face was even darker and blurred due to his dark clothes, only his voice was low and deep, but steady and tight.

"It's you!" Zhou Yiyi shouted with wide eyes.

"Why are you here?" Zhou Yiyi blurted out and added, "This ...... It's so early in the morning. ”

The young man looked up at the sky and said, "It's time." ”

"What?" Zhou Yiyi didn't hear clearly.

"By the time it was over, it was not early in the morning. The boy looked at her again and said lightly.

Zhou Yiyi blushed, looked at the sun above her head, and muttered in a low voice: "I get up late every day, and I don't think it's early in the morning when I get up before lunch today." Feeling a little embarrassed, he glanced at him and said, "You...... Why did you get here? The reservoir is very deep and unsafe. "Didn't I tell you, you can get out by asking someone for directions." Didn't you find anyone? Or ...... Or do they know that I've talked to you and you don't have anyone to deal with you?" he sighed as he spoke, "Well, I just said that everyone doesn't like me." You see, your luck has been ruined by me. Don't talk to me, I don't want to hurt you, you're even more unlucky. ”

The young man listened to Zhou Yiyi quietly and did not interrupt, and only after Zhou Yiyi finished speaking, did he say: "Did the girl ever know about a murder case in Zhoujia Village today?"

"I know. Zhou Yiyi was puzzled, tilted his head to look at him, "Why are you asking this?"

"I happened to be passing by here, and when I heard the news, I wanted to come and see it. The boy said.

Zhou Yiyi frowned and looked at him strangely, feeling that there seemed to be something wrong with this person.

When I heard that someone was gone, I deliberately ran to take a look, what do you see?

"Yesterday, following the girl's directions, I met a man and inquired about him, and learned that the deceased had drowned. The young man continued, pointing to the turbulent water behind him, "The place where I drowned is the Zhoujia Reservoir, so I'll come here today to take a look." ”

"It wasn't drowning. Zhou Yiyi shook his head and said, "Uncle Ge didn't drown. ”

The young man's eyes opened, and his gaze seemed to be floating in the tide.

"I think so, too. The boy said.
