Chapter 148: Deserted House
"What kind of cat is Flowey, tell me, okay?" I feel like it's really fun to tease my childhood self, and maybe no one would have had such an experience. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Xiao Xiaowei took her mother's hand and hid behind her, becoming shy, completely different from her impulsive just now.
It turns out that I have always been like this, only when I encounter things will I become brave, with the protection of my mother, I will hide my heart, like a lotus flower that gradually closes, one petal by one to return to the unbloomed appearance, and finally become a bud that no one knows how to appreciate.
"Xiaowei, what did Auntie ask you? How not to answer. Mom tugged at her shoulders, but she was still clinging to her waist.
"It's so cute~~" I don't hesitate to comment on myself, even if I am introverted and unwilling to speak, it's all me, am I stupid enough to criticize myself~~Just kidding~~
"The child is shy, say goodbye to Auntie." Mom said angrily and funny.
"Goodbye~~"
Mom pulled Xiao Xiaowei to walk in the direction of home, looking at their backs and really happy. Goodbye to my childhood, may you be a little more cheerful.
Turning around to look for Forget Chen, he was still guarding the door of the unit in Building 5, waiting for Wang Zhen and Li Qingqing.
"Forget it, don't wait, we have other things to do, they don't have to go to the academy tomorrow morning, what's the matter with standing guard here."
"To Wang's house?" Forget Chen pushed his glasses and guessed and asked.
"Hmm." I looked up at the sky, it was already approaching dusk, and as soon as the sun went down I could see Su Lao again, and this time I must ask him for clues about the artifact.
Wang's house, which is going to the suburbs, is quite far away from my house, and looking at the cars passing by on the street, I came up with an idea.
"Forget the dust, lend me your pen."
He didn't understand what I was going to do, so he didn't refuse, and took a pen out of his coat pocket and handed it to me.
The palm of my left hand has been written down by Gu Liang Palindromics, and I am not left-handed, holding a pen for a long time seems to be quite difficult to write on my right hand.
"You're lending me one of your palms." As I spoke, I took his hand and couldn't help but experiment with a trick that Gu Liang and Du Mo had used.
Who knows what they wrote, anyway, I wrote: Your car belongs to me.
Pulling a confused look to walk to an old Audi car on the side of the road, the driver inside was smoking a cigarette leisurely, and his feet were on the front windshield, so comfortable, it seemed to be waiting for someone.
"Hi~~" I softly greeted the man in the cab, he glanced up at me with an eyebrow, and said angrily: "What are you doing?" β
I took the palm of the hand that had just written and brought it to the man and showed it to him.
The man paused for a moment, suddenly took the stinky foot off the front of the car, snuffed out the cigarette butt in a panic, put on his shoes and apologized with an embarrassed face: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry I didn't know what was going on in your car." β
Haha... It's really easy to use, I happily pulled Wangchen into the borrowed Audi car, happily fastened my seat belt, and prepared to live the life of a car owner.
The excitement and cheerfulness didn't last a few minutes, though, because I discovered something terrible.
It's a manual car, you know, I've been doing my driver's license for many years, and if it's an automatic transmission, I can barely handle it, and I basically forget how to drive manually.
Which is the clutch?? Is it to step on the clutch or on the accelerator, why hasn't it moved!!
"Xiaowei, aren't you in gear?" Forget Chen sat next to him and couldn't stand it, reminding me.
Gear? Yes, yes, how do you hang the gear??
There was a rush of scramble, but the car still didn't move.
"I'll do it anyway." Forget the dust sighed, opened the car door, and switched places with me.
It's not a woman's job to be a driver, right? Who said that women have to be able to drive??
I gave myself a pill of relief, and I didn't think anything was wrong at all.
"You'll have to tell me where to go." Forget the dust skillfully drove the car forward, I looked at the buildings on the street, and looked for the location of the Wang family compound according to the route that Wang Zhen took me to in my memory.
I was really confused when I drove out of the city, because some places had changed after three years of traveling.
I had no choice but to drive for a while and get out of the car to ask passers-by, and finally found a familiar gate after dark.
The three small buildings are still located there, but they have lost their lights and popularity, and there is a gust of wind in the darkness, giving people an ominous feeling.
We stood outside the courtyard and looked at it for a long time, and Wangchen asked me softly, "Is this the place you want to come from?" β
"Well, yes, I didn't expect it to become like this after a year of desertion, I don't know if Su Lao is still there." As I spoke, I walked over to the gate and tugged at the rusty lock with my hand.
"Xiaowei! This side of the wall is relatively low, so you might be able to jump in. "Forget the dust found a broken faΓ§ade and called to me.
He carried me into the courtyard first, and then jumped in with him.
It was not long after dark, and there was lighting from other buildings around it, so the compound was not to the point where you couldn't see your fingers.
I observed my surroundings, which were scattered haphazardly in the corners, and the entrances to the three gatehouses were open, one of the wooden doors was broken and peeled off.
The bleak and miserable scene can't help but make people feel chilled.
More than 100 years ago, Wang Shishan must not have imagined the picture of today's situation when he built his family home.
I walked under the withered grape trellis and sat down on a stone chair in the shape of a pier, and was silent for a long time.
"What are you doing here?"
"Wait, no matter what happens for a while, don't be surprised, because I'm still a little different from you." I said as I looked at the dark door of the small building, and a cloud of white light gradually floated out, and in the middle of the halo was an old man in a robe, with a snow-white beard hanging down on his chest, still like a fairy bone, not at all like a wandering ghost.
"Bearded man..." I stood up to meet him.
"Little girl? I haven't seen you come to the Wang family for so long, I thought you had forgotten the old man. Su Lao slowly floated in front of me with a white beard.
"You also help me to give my aunt a dream, how can you not keep the promise of what you promised."
"Hey~~" Hearing me say this, the old man sighed helplessly: "This thing is also a little sorry for the little girl, last year the second daughter of the Wang family died of illness, and the three-year appointment you asked me to tell me did not know if it was completed, and then these juniors left the old house, leaving me lonely and even more depressed." β
"I'm here to help you, don't worry." I smiled at the sad face of Su Lao, and sincerely hoped that he would be free as well.
"Xiaowei, who are you talking to?" Forget Chen stared at me in surprise.
"That's a world you don't know, I'm talking to an old man, you can't see it, so there's nothing you can do to help me." I'll explain it to him briefly.
"You're talking about ghosts?"
I closed my eyelids slightly, nodded.
