Chapter 9: The Zashiki Boy
Lieber came back early the next morning, and as soon as he opened the door, the sight almost scared him out.
The TV has been playing, still turning the stage, the lights are dim, there is a weak illumination of the dim corner, from the kitchen can be seen in the dark cracks, the sofa came from the sound of rustling, a white calf along the sofa exposed, faintly mixed with a light hum, it sounds like a good sleep.
Putting the things in his hand on the cabinet in the entrance in front of the door, Li Bo took off his shoes and walked towards the sofa, and sure enough, he saw Su Qing, who was sleeping soundly, wrapped in a blanket, curled up comfortably on the sofa. Her right hand pressed on the TV's remote control board, which caused the TV to keep turning.
Sighing secretly, Li Bo carefully tried not to wake up Su Qing, pulled the remote control board out from under Su Qing's hand, and immediately turned off the TV, and then placed the remote control board on the coffee table, full of surprise in his heart for this new young lady.
Many of the things in this house were taken care of by him, and he and Su Qing's aunt had lived here for a while, and he probably knew what was here. Although he couldn't see it himself, it didn't mean that he didn't know that every night, something would wake up, which was what the man told him at the beginning.
Originally, I thought that this Miss Su would not stay in this ancient mansion for long, after all, this place is evil and scary, except for him, I am afraid that no one wants to stay here. But what Li Bo didn't expect was that Su Qing not only stayed in this house, but also slept on the sofa in the living room! This is something that only Su Qing's aunt Su Jing can do, and the rest of those who have been out of the room at night are either crazy or die mysteriously, except for Su Jing!
At that moment, Li Bo almost thought that Su Jing was back and came back to see him!
And all this was completely watched by Ye Chen, who was sitting on the side.
He had been trapped in that painting, looking at the same scenery day and night, in the same place, day after day, year after year.
No one spoke to him, so he learned to talk to his tea-drinking cup and the green tree in the painting, until one day a sweet voice appeared around him, talking to him, chatting with him, telling him what was happening outside. In this way, he looked forward to talking to that person every day, talking to that person, and that time became Ye Chen's happiest time.
It's a pity that the time of happiness is too short, and after a certain day, the female voice never sounded again. After that, I waited day after day, but unfortunately she still didn't come, winter went to spring, midsummer and late autumn, she never came again.
At that time, Ye Chen figured out that she should not come.
I thought I would continue to be trapped in the painting for decades, hundreds of years, until my spiritual power was exhausted. Who knew that she was saved by someone unintentionally, and this person's voice was surprisingly similar to hers, but different.
He had just been released last night, and he saw that the swarthy screen was very similar to a thing called a TV that the woman told her in his memory, and after asking Su Qing for sure, he was very interested in it.
I was bored left and right, and after Su Qing was so tired that she fell asleep, she took the small remote control board and played non-stop, changing the countertop, changing it, and it was very exciting. It was also a shame that Su Qing fell asleep, if he saw Ye Chen like this, he would definitely laugh.
The moment Li Bo entered the door, he was still happy, concentrating on playing his game of changing the channel, if he hadn't heard the footsteps, he quickly stuffed the remote control board under Su Qing's arm, I'm afraid something would really happen!
Taking care of Su Qing here, Li Bo turned back, took the things that were placed in the hallway, and entered the kitchen, and after a while, there was a slight rattling sound coming out of it, and the sound of ceramic fragments gathering together, thinking that he was cleaning the kitchen.
"Hmm...... Sky...... Is it dawn? ”
Hearing a sound in the daze, Liyue opened her eyes in a trance, stretched her waist leisurely, Su Qing rubbed her temples, pinched the bridge of her nose, and a figure appeared in a trance in her sight, getting closer and closer, closer and closer. As his eyes focused, it became clearer and clearer, it wasn't Ye Chen, who else could it be?
"Ah——!h
I could still see him early in the morning, Su Qing was also drunk, and she didn't even think that a burst of sky-breaking dolphin sound broke out of the air, and her screams could be heard throughout the house.
"Miss Su, what's wrong!"
Li Bo, who rushed to hear the sound, put down the things in his hand and asked repeatedly, "Is it a nightmare or what's wrong?" ”
Li Bo sat beside Su Qing, directly blocking Ye Chen's entire face, looking at Su Qing anxiously, and patting Su Qing's back to help her calm down.
After screaming, Su Qing blinked, stared at Li Bo in front of him for a long time, remembered what happened last night, restarted after his head crashed, and slowly came back to his senses after a long time.
"Ahem, no...... It's okay, Lieber worries you. ”
"You kid, look at what you say." Li Bo said as he brought a glass of warm water to Su Qing, "Why did Miss Su sleep in the living room?" Is it uncomfortable to live in the room? ”
Seemingly inadvertently asking the question he cared about the most, Li Bo couldn't help but look at Su Qing excitedly, waiting for her answer.
"I ......" Hearing this, Su Qing secretly scolded that Ye Chen hundreds of times in her heart, if it weren't for him, how could she sleep on the sofa outside, fortunately she didn't have a cold or fever, otherwise she would really want to kick Ye Chen's guy out!
But fortunately, Li Bo couldn't see Ye Chen, otherwise if Li Bo knew that he was sitting on a handsome male ghost now, he wouldn't know how he would feel in his heart!
"Hey, don't you watch TV at night, you get sleepy when you watch it, and you ...... when you are sleepy I fell asleep. Su Qing lowered her head to drink water and said vaguely, trying to confuse the past.
"So that's the case, Miss Su should pay attention, the room is big, and this living room is even colder at night, if you get cold, it's not good."
"I'll take note, Lieber." Saying that, Su Qing put the glass after drinking water on the quilt, turned over and got off the sofa, and accidentally saw the broom piled up at the kitchen door, and then remembered the kitchen last night, it seemed that there was an accident.
Embarrassed to smile at Li Bo, she has just lived in for only two days, and she broke the entire kitchen tableware, it is really a little difficult to say, she quickly got up and picked up and helped Li Bo clean the kitchen, no money to compensate for the total coolies, isn't it?
Fortunately, Li Bo didn't ask what was going on in the kitchen, otherwise Su Qing really didn't know what reason to make up to hide Li Bo, so he wouldn't say that he was sleepwalking, so he smashed the kitchen!
**************************
That night, Su Qing obediently returned to the room and made a gesture to go to bed and sleep obediently. When the lights outside the house went out and Li Bo also went back to the room, when the whole night began to cover the sky, Su Qing sneaked out of the room and groped the stairs down to the first floor.
"Ye Chen! Ye Chen! ”
Su Qing shouted a few times in a low voice, Ye Chen turned his head when he heard this, raised the wine glass in his hand and smiled at Su Qing.
"Coming?"
"Yes."
Su Qing responded, walked lightly to Ye Chen, and sat on the other side of the windowsill. Looking at his breezy appearance, he didn't seem to take this real boss to heart, and drank red wine leisurely, which was really pleasant.
"Are you sure?"
"Of course."
"You know what that is?"
"I don't know."
"Then you are so calm!"
After some conversation, Su Qing was not calm, and muttered to Ye Chen in her heart, not knowing if he could do it. Although the people who can get the seal are all big names among the ghosts, looking at the appearance of the frame, it should have been many years ago. After being sealed for so many years, the consumption of spiritual power is definitely not small, I really don't know who is more powerful than Ye Chen's ability to the culprit a few nights ago?
'Plop, plop'
Just when Su Qing questioned Ye Chen and thought about whether to take some other precautions, a few subtle footsteps suddenly echoed in the corridor, through the gallery, and straight down, as if there was a tendency to get closer and closer.
However, the footsteps stopped not far from Su Qing and them, and the two sides seemed to be in a confrontation, but Su Qing's eyes couldn't see anything anyway. After a long time, the other party did not mean to continue to approach, but turned his steps and went to a distant place.
This...... What does that mean? Su Qing was confused, could it be that the other party left so easily under Ye Chen's deterrence?
“…… What did you just do? ”
"Nothing was done."
"Then it'......"
"She walked on her own." Knowing Su Qing's doubts, Ye Chen was also surprised at the moment, raised his hand and drank the red wine in the cup, and then looked at Su Qing, "If you are not mistaken, she should be a boy in Zashiki." ”
