"You know?" Ruan Jingluo was stunned.

Everyone was surprised, Xiao Yue had already helped the woman called Ganwu in the old city to the table and sat down, the woman was stunned, shook her head and said, "Are you?" ”

"I'm the old city, and we sat in the same carriage when I came to Hangzhou."

The woman thought again: "Ah...... I seem to remember. ”

"I remember that you came to Hangzhou to join your relatives, why did you faint here?" The old city was a little confused.

Gan Wu lowered her head, she was trying to recall the past, perhaps because of her body, the past she recalled was very vague.

"Yes," she said, "my uncle is in Hangzhou, and I came to join him, but when I came, I didn't find him, and I inquired around and heard that he had left Hangzhou." I can't go back to where I came from, and I have no one to rely on in Hangzhou, so I have no choice but to build a grass shed outside the city, and rely on the little money I have left to survive for a few days, and then follow a lady to sell baked cakes in the city...... At least that way I won't go hungry. ”

While she was talking, Xiao Yue had already brought a bowl of hot porridge from the back kitchen, she put the hot porridge on the table in front of Ganwu, and said, "You are weak now, you can't eat our dishes yet, drink some porridge, Xiaocheng also helped you boil chicken soup, I'll bring it to you later." With that, Xiao Yue sat back in her place.

"Thank you," Gan Wu said to Xiao Yue, and after taking a sip of the porridge, she continued, "Later I knew that I had to leave the straw hut I had built, and I was hungry, but I knew that I had to get out of there immediately, not to Hangzhou City—the farther away from Hangzhou City, the better—so I went deep into the woods, and then I walked to you in a trance and fainted." ”

Everyone around Gan Wu was a little foggy when they heard this, and after saying this, Gan Wu himself frowned.

"Why can't you go back to where you came from?" The old city asked after a thought.

"I don't know...... All I knew was that I couldn't go back. Gan Wu shook her head, she frowned, and after thinking for a long time, she couldn't think of anything.

The old city asked, "Why did you leave your place outside the city?" ”

Gan Wu still shook her head, she was desperately remembering, but everything in her head seemed to melt together, like a mess of paste.

"What's next for you?" Begonia, who had been listening quietly, spoke.

"I'll leave tomorrow," Gan Wu thought for a moment, "I don't know why, but at least I know that I have to stay away from Hangzhou City, as far away as possible." Thank you for all you have done for me today, but I can't repay ......"

"It's okay, it's okay," Xiao Yue waved her hand, "But I advise you to rest here for a few more days, you are still very weak now, if you faint next time, I'm afraid you won't be so lucky to meet someone else." ”

Gan Wu smiled slightly: "It's okay, I've already thought about it." ”

Looking at her still bloodless face, Ruan Whale Luo frowned, and was about to say something more, but was pulled from under the table by Xiao Yue on the side.

"Then we won't force it to stay." Begonia said.

After that, Xiaoyue brought chicken soup to Ganwu again, although some unusual things should have happened to Ganwu, it can be seen that she herself can't think of it, and she has no intention of discussing these things in depth, so it is difficult for Haitang and others to continue to ask her anything. After the meal, the old city went to the back kitchen to wash the dishes, Xiaoyue helped Ganwu back to the room, and the other people also scattered to do their own things.

The night was already deep, and everyone had rested, but the cry of the night worms made the night not very quiet.

"How?" Now under the begonia tree in the courtyard, the begonia asked Xiaoyue.

"I did find a straw hut, not far from the wine shop, and there were no other houses and farmlands around, I guess nine times out of ten it is the one Gan Wu said, but there was nothing in it except a very dirty rag and a straw mat."

"You should pay more attention to the situation of that shed recently," Haitang said after listening to Xiao Yue's words, "I'm sorry for you, it's getting late now, let's go rest first." ”

After that, there was no word for a night.

Gan Wu woke up very early, to be precise, she barely slept last night.

Seeing that the sun was gradually illuminating the world, and everyone else seemed to be still asleep, she decided to leave.

Walking through the lobby and across the courtyard, the liquor shop behind her was obscured by the dense forest and could no longer be seen, and she kept walking until she was exhausted—she finally stopped.

Beads of sweat appeared on his pale face, and a feeling of weakness spread to his limbs and bones from nowhere. She gasped and subconsciously covered her chest, but she was suddenly stunned: the necklace she had been wearing was gone.

Where did it fall?

She was very alarmed, this necklace was given to her by a very important person, and it was more important to her than her own life.

She looked around.

"Not here, not here...... There's no here, where the hell is it—could it be that I was left in that wine shop? ”

Gan Wu muttered to himself, and finally had to embark on the way back.

The road she had walked from the liquor store seemed to be much longer than she had remembered, and by the time she walked back to the liquor store, the sun was already hanging overhead.

Blurring her vision, she gasped for air, but she still felt like she couldn't breathe, her chest was going against her will, and she slammed her eyes shut.

- When I opened my eyes, I saw a familiar flat in front of me to prevent dust.

"You are awake," came the familiar voice, "and when we got up today, we found that you were gone, and we did not expect that you would come back at noon, and faint again. ”

yes, I fainted again.

Ganwu's thoughts slowly came alive: "Have you seen my necklace?" ”

"I put the chain away for you," Xiao Yue said, "It's important to you?" ”

"Well," Ganwu replied, slightly relieved to learn that her necklace had not been lost in the wilderness but had been found here, "thank you, I'll take a little rest and leave." ”

"Don't talk so much, rest well, I'll go get you the necklace." Xiao Yue said, got up and left the room.

Gan Wu watched Xiao Yue's back disappear outside the door, the corners of her mouth twitched a few times invisibly, and then she began to retch quietly just like last night.

Hearing the sound of approaching footsteps, she gasped and stopped, looked at the door, and saw Xiao Yue walking back, and what Xiao Yue was holding in her hand was suddenly her necklace.

"It's not impossible to get the necklace back, but you have to promise me one condition." Xiao Yue played with the necklace and stood aside.

Gan Wu frowned: "I have nothing to give you." ”

Xiao Yue shook her head: "We don't want anything from you, I just want you to promise me a condition - stay with us honestly before your body recovers, and we won't stop you wherever you want to go after your body recovers." ”

"But, I really have to get as far away from Hangzhou City as possible, I have to get on the road as soon as possible-"

"Anyway, if you want to get your necklace back, you have to do what I say, if you want to get the necklace early and leave, you can honestly recover your body, and when your body recovers, I will naturally give you the necklace." Ganwu's weak voice was interrupted by Xiao Yue's categorical words, Xiao Yue took one last look at Gan Wu, and after leaving a sentence of "have a good rest", she left with the necklace again.

Gan Wu stared blankly at the direction of Xiao Yue's departure, perhaps she was really too weak, and she gradually fell asleep.

The flames soared into the sky, the collapsed houses, and only the half-cut man remained......

The man was gnawed by the flames, a thick beam fell, the man's figure was no longer visible, the flames continued to tear and destroy everything with impunity, and finally rushed towards her—

"Wan'er, let's go!"

"Ahh

Gan Wu opened her eyes suddenly, gasping for air, her chest heaving and heaving. Her whole body was already soaked in cold sweat, and her eyes were full of horror.

Slowly raising her hand in front of her, she couldn't see anything - it was already late at night.

Thinking so, she let her hands fall to the bed.

She fell asleep again.

The woman was dressed in rags and unkempt.

Her facial features are not present on her face, which should have facial features that look like a flat surface, and her entire head is like a sarcoma with long hair.

The woman got up from the ground, her steps staggering, the scorching sun in the sky scorching her, but she did not feel the slightest pain.

It's dawn.

Everyone was eating hot porridge in the lobby of the liquor store—Ganwu was too.

"Why do you look sad?" Begonia blew on the hot porridge and glanced in the direction of Ganwu.

Gan Wu smiled reluctantly: "I just had a few nightmares." ”

"You don't seem to want to talk about these things, but if you think of something, feel free to let us know, and we might be able to help you." Xiao Yue drank the last mouthful of porridge in the bowl.

Gan Wu nodded: "I see, thank you." ”

"Don't take it seriously," Xiao Yue saw Ganwu's reaction, so she approached Ganwu's face and said, "We are a well-known pen painter in Hangzhou City, what can't we help you with?" ”

"Brush painting tang...... Gan Wu was stunned, and then reacted, "You are here to hold the pen and paint tang?" ”

She has been in Hangzhou for more than half a year, and she has heard a lot of rumors about this pen painting. But though she had been in the liquor store for a day or two, she had never paid attention to the plaque on the courtyard gate—after all, she had fainted when she had entered the liquor store twice, and the time she had left, she had only thought about going as far as she could—she had no chance or time to pay attention to these things.

"Yes, here we are," replied Begonia with a smile, "if you still don't believe me, I can prove it—for example, I know that you dreamed of a man named Wan'er when you had a nightmare last night, girl." ”

Gan Wu was stunned for a moment, looked at the smiling Begonia in disbelief, and then looked at the others who were very calm on the side: "How do you know?!" ”

"For example, I can also tell you the news that the grass hut where you lived before has been burned, and someone may be looking for your whereabouts all over the mountain." Haitang did not answer Ganwu's question, but said so to herself.
