October 24, 1997, 12 p.m.

Baiyang Village, at the foot of the mountain.

Tang Xiaosheng lay alone in a bush at the foot of the mountain, about fifty meters away from the little girl's house. At the foot of this mountain, except for the little girl, there are fields or grass or cemeteries within a radius of several hundred meters, and there is no one living at all.

It was a bit cruel to let the six-year-old girl stay alone in this ghost place for the night, so Tang Xiaosheng decided to sleep in the grass at night and stay with her.

At this time, Tang Xiaosheng certainly had the ability to rescue the little girl from the house, but he couldn't do it. Because once he rescues the little girl from the house, he will change the fate of the little girl, thus changing the fate of Xiao Tang Xiaosheng and the course of the entire history.

Therefore, Tang Xiaosheng can't do what didn't happen in the original historical process, and at the same time, he can't help but do what should have happened in the original historical process.

Today is the first day that Tang Xiaosheng traveled to time and space in 1997, and he was originally just going to play here for two days before using the Moonlight Treasure Box to travel back. However, he was surprised to find that he was also one of the participants in this history, and he could not leave at all, but had to stay and do what he was supposed to do, and ensure that history went on the same track.

In this way, Tang Xiaosheng must stay in the time and space of 1997 until the time reaches 2017. In other words, he had to stay here for 20 years.

Only after 20 years, when he has done everything he needs to do, can he go back to 2017.

"Whew-"

thought that it would take another 20 years to go back in order to reunite with Xiaolongnu, Zhao Min, Dongfang Undefeated, Huang Rong, Ren Yingying and others. Tang Xiaosheng couldn't help but sigh softly.

20 years, more than 7,000 days and nights, what a long wait? What's more, this waiting is also mixed with the pain of longing.

Fortunately, although there is no company of Xiaolongnu, Zhao Min, Dongfang Undefeated, and Xiao Huang Rong by his side, at least there is a little girl.

The little girl slept alone on her bed in the house tonight after eating a packet of instant noodles. Although the little girl slept, Tang Xiaosheng still couldn't sleep. He had just crossed over to this place today, and when he saw the little girl twenty years ago again, he had a lot of thoughts in his heart. How to be able to sleep.

As a matter of fact. Even if he can sleep, he can't sleep because he has to keep the little girl safe and make sure that the little girl stays in the house all the time. Thus ensuring that history has not been altered.

Nothing was said all night.

The next day. Tang Xiaosheng after sending five packs of instant noodles to the little girl. He left Baiyang Village first and went to Hongxing Town again. He is now the "old grandmother" who needs to constantly provide instant noodles and food to the little girl, therefore. You need to go to the town to buy these foods.

After arriving in Hongxing Town, Tang Xiaosheng first bought two large boxes of instant noodles and some food. During his shopping, he accidentally passed by a small guitar specialty store and bought an acoustic guitar by the way.

He now spends every night with the little girl in the grass near the house at the foot of the mountain, and the nightlife is a bit boring, so he decided to buy a guitar that he can play and sing a few words when he is bored at night, at least to relieve his boredom.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, Tang Xiaosheng returned to Baiyang Village with food and guitars, and then continued to lurk near the house at the foot of the mountain to secretly observe the little girl's every move to ensure her safety.

Like yesterday, Tang Xiaosheng, who is only seven years old, still comes to play with the little girl after school, and the two little children are chatting and eating instant noodles. It wasn't until after the sun set that little Tang Xiaosheng left.

After Xiao Tang Xiaosheng left, another night came.

Twelve o'clock in the evening.

Like last night, the little girl was still sleeping alone on the bed in the house, and Tang Xiaosheng was also lying in the grass outside the house, with a wooden guitar he had just bought tonight beside him.

The night is hazy and the evening breeze is light.

The foothills are quiet at night, and the occasional cool mountain breeze blows through you, making you feel refreshed and comfortable.

In the past ten years, Tang Xiaosheng has been working hard in Jinghua City, and there are endless things to do every day, especially after meeting Xiaolongnu, Zhao Min and other traversers, the messy things in life have appeared one after another, and it is rare to have a moment of leisure.

Now, lying at the foot of the mountain, in the grass away from the hustle and bustle, his heart is a little more calm and relaxed.

"Woo-woo-woo-"

Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard a girl's crying from the north of the grass. As soon as he heard the cry, Tang Xiaosheng knew that the little girl had woken up.

"Why is she crying again?"

Tang Xiaosheng sat up from the grass, his brows furrowed slightly, he had already put more than a dozen instant noodles and some food in the house, it was impossible for the little girl to be hungry, why did she cry?

After thinking about it carefully, I realized that perhaps the reason why she was crying was not because she was hungry, but because she was afraid. In this deserted and remote place, locked in a dark room, anyone would be terrified, let alone a six-year-old child.

"What to do?"

Hearing the little girl's crying, Tang Xiaosheng thought to himself.

At this time, he suddenly remembered the scene of Dongfang Undefeated taking care of his daughter Tang Xiaoyu in his mind. Since Tang Xiaoyu was born, whenever she woke up crying in the middle of the night, Dongfang Undefeated would sing to Tang Xiaoyu and coax her to sleep. And after hearing the singing, Tang Xiaoyu was often able to fall asleep quickly.

Now hearing the little girl's cry, Tang Xiaosheng naturally remembered that he also sang a song to coax her, maybe after hearing the song, she would be able to fall back asleep.

Thinking of this, Tang Xiaosheng decided to give it a try, so he picked up the acoustic guitar next to him and prepared to play a song. He had only been learning to play the guitar for a few months, and his technique was quite amateurish. So far, there are only two songs that I am relatively proficient in.

One is Qi Qin's "The Outer World", and the other is Yuquan's "A Life Only for You".

Tang Xiaosheng hugged the guitar to his chest, decided to play "The World Outside" first, calmed down slightly, held the chord with his left hand, and began to gently pluck the guitar strings with the tips of his right fingers, and the beautiful melody slowly flowed out from his fingers.

After the intro of the song, he began to accompany the guitar. Softly sang "The Outside World":

"Once upon a time, you owned me, I owned you. Once upon a time, you left me to soar in the sky. ”

"The outside world is very exciting, and the outside world is very helpless. When you feel that the world outside is very exciting, I will sincerely bless you here. ”

"Whenever the sun sets, I always look forward to you here. Although it is raining in the sky, I am still waiting for your return. ”

……

The gentle singing voice came slowly from the grass at the foot of the mountain, accompanied by the secluded mountain breeze. Floating in the air at the foot of the mountain. Although Tang Xiaosheng's singing voice is not very beautiful and beautiful. But during the filming of "The Legend of the New White Lady", he had studied vocal music for a period of time, so his singing level was quite acceptable.

"Huh?"

The little girl in the room was crying profusely. Then. Suddenly heard Tang Xiaosheng's singing. Xiao Liu's eyebrows couldn't help but bend, and his attention was all attracted by the singing.

Syllable! Syllable! Syllable!

After hearing the song, the little girl wiped the corners of her eyes with her little hands. Immediately ran out of bed, and ran to the window of the room in three steps and two steps, with big eyes flickering, and looked out of the window with great curiosity, to see who was singing.

It's a pity that it's dark outside the window, and you can't see anything, only the song of "The World Outside the World" sounds softly at the foot of the mountain.

Although she couldn't see anything, the little girl still lay quietly at the window, listening with relish.

At the foot of this mountain, the night has always been very quiet, frighteningly quiet, and it is precisely because the house is so quiet that the little girl will cry with fear when she wakes up. And when she heard the singing, the little girl immediately stopped crying, because the company of the singing made her feel as if she was not alone.

It was the first time the little girl heard the guitar playing and singing, and she thought it was very novel, so she was fascinated by it.

Although Tang Xiaosheng only played one song "The World Outside" from beginning to end, and the single song was played and sung repeatedly, the little girl still leaned against the window and listened with a new look.

After listening for about an hour, the little girl finally became sleepy, opened her little mouth, yawned a few times in succession, and then turned away from the window, ran back to the bed in the room, and lay down flat.

With Tang Xiaosheng's singing, unconsciously, the little girl finally fell asleep again.

After the little girl fell asleep, Tang Xiaosheng walked lightly to the window of the house and looked into the house. At this time, the little girl was lying quietly on the bed, with a quiet face, and two shallow dimples were exposed on her delicate little cheeks, which was very cute. The cherry-like mouth is slightly pursed, and occasionally the corners of the mouth will rise mischievously, and I don't know what kind of sweet dream I am having.

Seeing that the little girl finally stopped, Tang Xiaosheng breathed a sigh of relief, and sighed in his heart: It is really hard to take care of children.

XXX

In the days that followed, Tang Xiaosheng did the same thing almost every day.

Every day, he first went to the fields to farm as Tian Bo, and then disguised himself as an "old grandmother" with disguise techniques to deliver food to the little girl, among which the most delivered food was instant noodles.

At night, he would lurk in the grass of the house at the foot of the mountain, and keep watch over the little girl secretly. And when the little girl woke up in the middle of the night, he had to play and sing a song for her guitar, "The Outside World" or "Life is Only for You".

Tang Xiaosheng's daily life is very regular, and little Tang Xiaosheng's life is also very regular. Every day when he goes to school or after school, little Tang Xiaosheng will come to accompany the little girl, rain or shine.

Day after day passed, and soon, 1997 passed and a new year began.

After spending more than two months with the little girl, Tang Xiaosheng learned more about the little girl's situation.

He once secretly hypnotized the little girl with "Soul Shifting Dafa" to investigate the soul on her body, and found that she had the souls of Xiaolongnu, Xiao Huangrong, Guo Xiang, Xiao Zhao, Ren Yingying, Wang Yuyan, Dongfang Undefeated, A Zhu, Mei Chaofeng and other traversers, but what made him strange was that there were no souls of Zixia and Nie Xiaoqian.

Zixia's soul has been refined into a soul pill by Nie Xiaoqian with "Soul Alchemy", and she has long lost consciousness, and Tang Xiaosheng can't check the existence of Zixia's soul with "Soul Shifting Dafa", which is not surprising.

It's just that Nie Xiaoqian's soul can't check anything?

Tang Xiaosheng pondered for a while, but there was no answer to this.

On January 31, 1998, Tang Xiaosheng had a new thing to do, he wanted to go to the county seat and buy a TV for the little girl. The reason why you want to buy a TV is because you have to buy it.

Tang Xiaosheng remembers that when he first met the little girl when he was a child, there was no TV in the little girl's house. It wasn't until February 1, 1998 that there was a 14-inch black-and-white television in the house.

Tang Xiaosheng once asked the little girl where the TV came from, and the little girl replied at the time that the TV was given to her by an "old grandmother", and the "old grandmother" who sent the TV and the "old grandmother" who delivered instant noodles were the same person.

And Tang Xiaosheng now knows that this "grandmother" who delivers instant noodles is himself, so he naturally has to continue to carry out the obligation of "grandmother" and send a TV to the little girl.

Only when they bought a TV set would the little girl and little Tang Xiaosheng start to play games pretending to be characters in the play. Only in this way can we ensure that history proceeds on its original track. (To be continued.) )
