284 Candle in the Night
In the evening, the light gradually weakened, and Su Xing suddenly reacted - in the middle of the night, the room was pitch black, how could she climb the window?
Outside, there was another sound of the door opening, and it was the man who was guarding her, who came in with a bowl of rice and two steamed buns. Seeing that Su Xing honestly stayed in the house without superfluous movements, he expressed his satisfaction.
Seeing that the man was about to leave after putting down his things, Su Xing hurriedly grabbed him and said with a flattering smile: "That...... Big brother, uncle? Still is...... Brother-in-law? What's the matter, can I discuss something with you? ”
"What's the matter?"
"It's dark in this room, I'm scared ......"
"What's the matter, you still want me to sleep with you?"
Damn, go to sleep with the old man who picks up dung! Su Xing's face darkened, but fortunately, the light in this room was already dim, and she couldn't see the expression on her face clearly. Holding back her strength, she took out her twelve-point acting skills, choked up and said, "I'm afraid of black ...... I'm so scared, please, leave me a little fire, okay? ”
"Firelight?"
"Leave a lamp, or a candle or something, so that the room is a little bright, not too bright, just visible. Besides, if I am at night, I will not be able to see this black light. ”
The man guarding the door looked at Su Xing suspiciously, not knowing what this girl was thinking.
Su Xing hurriedly squeezed out an extremely sincere begging.
"Are you really scared? Why didn't you see you scared last night? ”
"I was scared last night, but I was too scared last night, and I just want to beg you to leave me a light today." Su Xing looked at him with tears in her eyes, sniffled, and continued, "I'm really scared, and I don't know where my sister is...... I'm alone in this house, it's a black hole, my sister used to tell me a story, saying that if there is a little ghost, he likes to find children to eat his brain in the middle of the night...... "As a warrior who can hold a dead person and pretend to be dead, Su Xing didn't feel that it was a shameful thing to say that he was afraid of the dark.
Finally, the candle was left in her house as she wished.
Listening to the movement of the door locking outside, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Now, it's late at night.
With the light that barely disappeared completely, she picked up the steamed bun and began to eat it - she couldn't light a candle at this time, otherwise it would be strange that such a small candle would burn until the second half of the night.
Inside, it was completely dark. Su Xing held the candle and circled around the room, chanting "I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid."
After chattering for a long time, the people outside finally couldn't bear it anymore, and scolded angrily: "Didn't you leave a candle, just light it if you're afraid, and the whole house is calling something!" ”
"It's just a candle like this, it's gone when it's burned, I can save a little bit and light it later."
The howling of the night wind rose and fell, as if the howl of a change of tone echoed far and near.
Su Xing didn't know what time it was, when people were alone in the dark, time would give people a strange illusion, obviously a long time had passed, but in fact, not much had passed. She felt that she should wait a little longer, after all, there was only one chance, and if people knew her plan, I was afraid that when God closed the door for her, not only would the window be closed, but even the mouse hole would not be left for her.
Forget it, go to bed first! Su Xing clenched her fists and made a difficult decision.
She dragged the quilt from the bed to the edge of the bed, drilled into it, and fell asleep.
Come to think of it, with her sleeping position, she shouldn't have lasted until dawn.
A room is dark.
The howling of the night wind near and far made the dark room even more silent......
"Ouch!"
A cry of pain broke the silence of the room.
Meow, she's dreaming of eating chicken legs, can't she wait for her to finish eating chicken legs and then fall down? Rubbing his small hill that had not yet completed the orogeny in a daze, Su Xing finally came to his senses. I don't know what time it is, but it's a good time - she made this noise, and no one asked.
Just in case, she still "belched" a few times in succession, and only the call of the night wind could still be heard outside.
Start!
Carefully pinching the wick of the candle until it was only a little bit, she blew on the fire and lit the candle.
The bright light of the bean daze darkened the room, but at least it wasn't out of sight.
She hid the candle in a corner, and let the faint light flicker there, and she did not dare to let the candle come too close to her, lest it reflect her too active figure, and if anyone outside became suspicious, she would toss in vain.
Sister, this table and chairs are not too heavy to move, but the problem is that this large circle of chairs has to be stacked on top of the table, so it will be too heavy.
What Su Xing was most afraid of was that if she couldn't put the chair up, she would fall to the ground with a bang. With such a big movement, I'm afraid the people in the entire courtyard can hear it.
After sitting down and resting for a while, feeling that her hands and feet had eased up, Su Xing took a deep breath, grabbed the circle of chairs with both hands, and gritted her teeth hard: "Go you!" ”
It's good, the two front legs are on. Steady, steady, and keep walking!
When the chair was placed firmly on the table, Su Xing realized that she was already sweating on her head.
Can't stop, what if one of the buddies eats too much and wakes up at night? Dear buddy, I hope you all like to use the toilet in the house, and don't run out on this cold day.
Eh, wait......
A bright light suddenly flashed in Su Xing's mind, toilet!
The quilt is not high, not to mention, it's not safe to step on, but the toilet can, put that thing upside down on the chair, won't it be a little taller, anyway, the toilet is empty now.
After suddenly discovering the wonderful use of the toilet, Su Xing's heart was jubilant, and she hurriedly put the chair away and went to get the toilet.
A strange voice sounded from outside, as if the door was being opened in a room.
The hairs on Su Xing's whole body were about to stand up, and she stiffened there and didn't dare to move in the slightest.
It's just that her figure is reflected on the window paper, so that people outside can't help but ask: "What are you doing?" ”
What for? What for? Su Xing only felt that her back was already drenched with sweat, and when she looked down and saw the toilet in front of her, she immediately said in a dumb voice, "Get up...... Wake up at night...... as if he hasn't woken up yet.
The people outside didn't ask again, and when they heard the footsteps, it seemed to be gone.
Su Xing's whole body stiffened and moved back to the bed to lie down, listening to the movement outside, and she didn't dare to get out of bed again until the person entered the house for a long time.
Turning her head to look at the candle shining in the corner with a bean light cluster, Su Xing couldn't help but sigh, it was such a small light source, but she still couldn't hide the shadow. Well, then again, she doesn't look like a ghost blowing out the lamp, lighting candles in the corner in the middle of the night.
There was no time to think about it, so she pulled the toilet bowl over and slammed it upside down on the chair. After shaking it a few times to make sure it was firm enough, she leaned on the edge of the table and climbed up silently.
