The strange atmosphere froze for a moment, and when I couldn't help but open one eye slightly, I saw that the woman was clapping her thighs with both hands. This action reminds me of my grandmother back home, who used to slap herself so hard when she was quite emotional. Suddenly, the woman fell to her knees and pointed behind me with her outstretched hand, as if begging me to look back.

The fear in my heart was shaken, and I reluctantly closed my eyes again, moved my heavy steps, and turned away. I thought that even if there was a terrible ghost standing behind him, he could only resign himself to fate!

When I opened my eyes again, there was no one on the deserted sidewalk, let alone ghosts, not even passers-by; Only the old king, who was sweeping the road, stood there motionless with a broom. I was thinking it was strange that the old king shook his head and fell backwards......

"Old people, old people......"

This time I didn't wake up the old king, I took out my mobile phone in a hurry, but I heard a familiar voice behind me - "Hey, this is the middle of Youbai Road, there is an old man who passed out on the side of the road......"

A bare arm reached out, and I looked back, "It's you!" ”

The "white shirt" helped me pick up the unconscious old king's head and said, "Wait, the ambulance will be here soon!" ”

I nodded, looked around, and the woman was gone!

The indicator light in the emergency room dimmed, and Lao Wangtou was sent to the ward. With an infusion needle on the back of his thin hand, his dark and old face, and his sunken eye sockets, he looked so weak that he might not open them at any time.

I remember that Lao Wangtou said that he had no relatives, and the "white shirt" proposed to contact the people at the district sanitation station, and followed the nurse to fill out the form.

I stood anxiously in front of the hospital bed, my palms were full of sweat - the doctor said that such an old man, if he had not been rescued in time, would probably have gone like this, I couldn't help but speculate: maybe it was sensing that something would happen to the old king, so "she" asked me to help him? No, it's incredible!

The door to the ward was pushed open, and a middle-aged man walked in with a shiny head and looked around.

"Is it Stationmaster Xu?" The "white shirt" then followed up with a question.

"Yes, yes, it's good to call me Lao Xu......" Stationmaster Xu looked at the old Wang Tou on the hospital bed with a solemn face, "What is the current situation?" ”

The "white shirt" replied: "The doctor said that it was heat stroke, and now it is not a big problem, just pay attention to rest!" ”

Stationmaster Xu nodded, and when he learned of our enthusiastic help, he praised him very much, and nagged: "This old king, more than seventy, his wife died early, and he was lonely." I should have retired, but I proposed to do it. We thought that life was also compelling, so we arranged a lighter section for him......"

I couldn't help but think of the middle-aged woman and asked, "Then when did his wife die?" ”

Stationmaster Xu shook his head: "I don't know about this!" He had been working for years when I came to work...... I heard that he has a son, who went out to work more than ten years ago and has not been heard from. He doesn't talk much, he is a little ...... I didn't ask ...... if I didn't fit in."

I was a little uneasy, so I excused myself and left, and the "white shirt" came out of the ward with me.

"Thank you today!"

"White Shirt" smiled: "You have already said 'thank you' to me twice today...... Are you really okay? ”

"Huh? It's okay! I replied awkwardly.

"Are you ......?"

"I've got to go beforehand, goodbye!" I interrupted him and hurried home.

I walked terrified along the way, especially on the Oily Buck Road, where I almost trotted home. The digital clock at the head of the bed showed 15:23, and I was not in the mood for lunch, so I poured water and took medicine, so I collapsed on the bed and exhaled deeply.

The sun was soon setting, the heat was not gone, and the wind was tempered. As I walked, I used my own hand as a fan, walking aimlessly. Soon, as the sky darkened and the wind cooled a little, I saw a paper lantern on the road ahead.

As I got closer, the fire lit up faintly, and the leather surface of the lantern was red. The red lantern floated forward in the air, I wasn't a curious person, but this time I chased after it without thinking. I chased it for a long time, and just when I was about to give up, the lantern stopped. A small building was faintly shining in the red light, and before I could see it, the lantern suddenly extinguished itself without wind and fell into darkness.

"Ding~Jingling~Jingling~"

The bell echoed in the air, and I panicked, reaching out and groping my way forward, when suddenly, a faint light came from ahead. At the end of the light stood a familiar figure, and I walked towards her - the deserted streets, the dim street lamps, so familiar, I suddenly realized that it was just a "dream"!

When the woman saw me stop, she waved her hand as if to signal me not to be afraid. I looked at her lifeless face, with an almost transparent whiteness, and the cold all over my body, and I was afraid of it, and I only felt that my mouth was dry.

The woman opened her mouth again and spat out two words—though there was still no sound, but I understood, and shook my head: "You don't have to thank me, if it weren't for your 'presence', I wouldn't have been able to help......" I hesitated for a moment, and said the doubts in my heart: "You...... Is it Uncle Wang's relative? Why is it ...... Find me? …… It's all so weird, if I tell someone about it, I'll think I'm crazy......"

The woman's face was sad, but her dark pupils were emotional, and she stared at me with a creep.

"Forget it, you tell me, I can't hear it...... Please don't show up again, whether it's in a dream or in a ......" I smiled wryly and lowered my head and said to myself in a very weak voice: "I'm going crazy!" ”

The woman didn't speak again, and I think she understood my feelings. In the silence of the streets, the eerie ringing of bells has been echoing in my ears. I covered my ears and was forced to wait for the nightmare to end, but little by little the darkness swallowed me, and when I realized that the woman was gradually receding towards the center of the light. I tried to chase after it, but I found myself imprisoned in the darkness. I looked helplessly at the woman, and she raised her hand again......

"You say I'm your superhero~Occasional cameo appearance in your punching bag~"

I opened my eyes suddenly, my phone was vibrating on the bedside table, and I was saved!

"Shan, just woke up?"

"Hmmm! I'm sorry I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in the morning......"

"You still said, you didn't reply to your message, I'm depressed. You don't know what you looked like, it's scary......"

"Hehe, sorry, sorry! I slept a lot and felt more refreshed, and it was fine. ”

"It's okay! By the way, did you have dinner? I didn't eat and came to my house, so I continued what I didn't finish the morning. ”

"Hmmm! Good! ”
