Chapter 357: The Gambler (3)

Bai Xuanzhi sighed lightly and explained in a gentle voice: "Didn't you come to study in order to make you calm down, I deliberately went to ask for a seal from Chou Wuwu, but it is only valid for one year. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info When you went out just now, I was quite worried. Later, I couldn't help but call and ask Aunt Rong, she said that you have already left, I know that you have an accident again, and hurry up along the alley where you usually walk. Unexpectedly, I saw you standing alone in front of the Taiping intersection, with a few little ghosts behind you pushing your body vigorously, probably trying to push you into the Taiping Road. As he finished telling me what he had seen, I broke out in a cold sweat again. I took the towel and wiped it again, and my heart was beating wildly again. That's what he just said, a few little ghosts...... A couple of imps are pushing me...... I couldn't help but shudder at the thought of this. Sure enough, there was a reason why I couldn't move just now.

"No wonder I can't move, it turns out that I was controlled by those little ghosts. I muttered something, Bai Xuanzhi listened to it, and patiently comforted me, "Didn't I tell you not to go near that lower ......road before?" It's not clean! You know? Grievances are heavy, and your constitution is the easiest way to attract their attention. I nodded, I was in the scene just now, and I really didn't dare to stop and stare at the path in the future.

I suddenly thought of something, "Bai Xuanzhi, you just said that you found a worry-free borrowing seal, could it be that you have another debt?" He shrugged helplessly, and said disapprovingly: "Whatever, anyway, I can't pay off the debt of worry-free in a few lifetimes." If he is willing to take credit, I will dare to lend. I know what he wants from me, and whether he succeeds or not depends on my personal wishes, and no matter how much he pushes it, it's useless. ”

"What does he want from you?" I asked, curious, feeling a fresh anticipation and an inquiring excitement at the mysteriousness of carelessness.

"Well, that's it...... Secret!" he winked at me gently, just to hold my appetite from me. This guy is still the same as before, mysterious and secretive. I saw that he didn't want to say anything, and I didn't press him anymore. Everyone has their own secrets in their hearts, and they must stop in moderation, the way to get along with others, sometimes they can't go too far, and respecting others is also equivalent to respecting themselves.

"Also, what you just said...... There is a lot of resentment in that place?" I deliberately avoided the word Taiping Road and used that place instead, I really didn't want to mention that name, it sounded weird. How can there be that kind of street sign, as if it is another name for Huangquan Road, it is really worrying to the shockers. It reminds me of the hospital morgue, the place where the dead are piled up. So is this Taiping Road a road specially opened for lonely souls and wild ghosts?

People always have a shortcoming, and my shortcoming is that even if I know something is not quite right, I can't help but pay attention to the scenery of that place. Even if I thought something ominous was going to happen, or if I saw some crazy shadow dangling around, and there were grimaces hidden in the dark room, I would still repeat the mistakes I had made over and over again. I couldn't contain my inflated curiosity.

For several days, I passed in a hurry like a chaotic cloud in my heart, I didn't dare to pass through that alley alone, even if it was daytime, even if there were many people walking on the road, to go to the other side, my only way was to drag Bai Xuanzhi to accompany me. He didn't say anything, I asked him to do something, and he never complained. I am very happy about that.

At night, I am sometimes awakened by the noise outside the window, and even though I close the curtains, the glass window behind the curtain "knocks" loudly, like who is hiding outside and banging desperately on the window, but there is a balcony outside, who will climb over the fence and climb to the balcony on a high place and knock on my window? I try to convince myself that it is the sound of the wind blowing through the window, and I even numb my sense to believe this unreasonable fact.

Lying in bed at night, covered with a quilt, sometimes I feel like I am wearing a shroud and covering my "corpse" with a white cloth, because I dare not move, just breathing weakly, which reminds me of the corpses in the morgue, who are also lying motionless on the bed with their eyes closed. At this point, being and disappearing is just a dispensable dream for me. I often wonder why the imps on that path have to look for me, and I shudder when I think of something terrible hiding in the darkness of that dim and unlit path. It was almost another time and space, it didn't belong here, that path belonged to the dark abyss, it longed for a mysterious and unknown world. In any case, I didn't dare walk through that alley alone.

A week passed before I dared to step out of the house. One day at noon, I went to a nearby shop to buy some oil and salt, and halfway along the way, the sunny weather suddenly became cloudy, and before I could find shelter, the bean-sized raindrops turned into wet whips and whipped my face, hands and face, and even every part of my skin. I had no choice but to run to the old tin sheet next to the entrance to the alley to shelter from the rain. Raindrops from the sky splashed on the ground, sprayed on my trouser legs, and soaked my clothes. A gust of wind blew, and I felt cold.

The ground exudes heat, which is the heat accumulated by the hot sun a few days ago, people walking on the stone paved path, only feel that the body inside and outside are as hot as if burning, especially the heat that can not be dissipated under the ground, burst out at once, just like a hot and red iron "poof" fell into the water, a burst of white mist with hot water vapor rushed to the face, and suddenly the whole body was dripping with sweat as if staying in the sauna.

I was bored and looked at the vertical "water column", and my mood was inexplicably a little irritable. It suddenly became cold, and I shrank back and sneezed. Suddenly, I heard a faint cry in my ears, and I turned my head to look, and at some point, there was a middle-aged man standing next to me, his eyes were blank as he was looking at the pouring rain, his face was full of beard, his forehead was protruding, his face was thin like an awl, the whole person was dull, his hair was unkempt as if it had been fixed with a strong hairspray, and dirt was hidden in it. Especially the pair of eyes that sink deeply, the whole body skeleton is light and fluttering as if the wind will blow away, he is very thin, very thin. It was the first thought that came to my mind when I saw him, and it was also the most immediate.
