"And where are you hiding?"

Shen Xi patted Xiaobei's head: "You're really drunk and confused, am I not here, what are you hiding?" ”

"Are you here?" Xiaobei was exaggeratedly shocked, and then threw herself on him and hugged him tightly, "Then I can catch you, you can't go anywhere, you can't go anywhere!" ”

"Silly, where can I go?"

"Go far, far, far away where I can't find it." As she spoke, the sourness in her heart could not be concealed, and she was drunk, and the person lay on him and buried her face in his stomach.

"It's stupid." He touched her head, "Don't be cranky, I'm not going anywhere." ”

"Hmm!" She answered, tears sneaking out of her eyes, not daring him to see them.

I don't know what it's like to be young, when she finally knows how to like it, and at the same time she understands her life, she doesn't dare to say that she likes it, she is afraid......

She could only grit her teeth, swallow all her likes into her stomach, and say to herself, it's good to be like this now.

As long as he's still by his side, fine.

"What's wrong? Sleepy? ”

"Hmm!"

"Then go to sleep?"

"No, that's what I'm going to do."

Shen Xi couldn't help her: "Then stay for a while, and go down for a while." ”

As he spoke, he took off his coat and put it over her, it was cold on the rooftop at night, and she was still mortal.

When she was really asleep, he carried her back to the bed in the room and laid her down, not surprised to see the tears on her face, he sat at the head of the bed, rubbed her hair lightly, sighed stupidly, leaned over, and kissed her lightly on the forehead.

I don't know if she felt it in her dream, and her frowning brows gradually relaxed.

But Shen Xi looked at her furrowed eyebrows, but he didn't let go for a moment

……

A month before his birthday, Xiaobei was in physical education class when he suddenly felt a chill.

She subconsciously hugged herself and rubbed her arms, and inadvertently caught a glimpse of her hands wrapped around the black gas visible to the naked eye, she panicked and felt that something was wrong, and immediately raised her hand to ask the teacher for leave, when she spoke, she didn't dare to get too close to the teacher.

The teacher agreed when she saw that her face was really bad, and Xiaobei barely coped with the classmates who came to care about her, pulled up her schoolbag and left.

As soon as she arrived at the school gate, she immediately sent a text message to Shen Xi, and then hid in an alley next to the school, where few people usually pass by, she had to wait for Shen Xi to come out, and she didn't dare to go back alone, especially in her current situation, without Shen Xi to support her, she didn't know what would happen.

Shen Xi quickly regained her confidence and told her to wait obediently to go out immediately.

As soon as Xiaobei put away his mobile phone, he saw three gangsters walking into this alley, Xiaobei cursed secretly, turned his back, and shrunk his hands on his chest praying that the three of them could get to know each other a little, when they didn't see her.

But it backfired, and the three gangsters who obviously skipped class saw a lonely girl, and they really didn't plan to let it go.

"Eh, where is this schoolgirl, why is she here alone? Waiting for a lover? ”

"It's class time, you skipped class, tsk, what a bad boy."

They blocked Becky one after the other, and a third person blocked the road.

"Go away!"

"Yo, it's pretty fierce." The yellow-haired boy slammed Xiaobeibi in front of the wall, "Don't be like this, my brothers are just joking with you, how about it, my brothers will take you to have fun?" ”

Xiaobei's face became more and more cold: "If you don't want to die, get out of here." ”

"Hahaha, but we want to die," Huang Mao leaned into Xiaobei's neck in a pretentious manner in the laughter of the two brothers, "I want to be in your gentle township, do you say okay?" ”

Xiaobei's back was against the wall, and her hands were hidden behind her, trying not to have any contact with the three of them as much as possible, but I don't know if it was because of the cold on the wall, she felt a chill all over her body, and after the cooling, there was a hot breath, which collided with each other in her body.

"Get out of here, get out of here." She began to feel numb all over, her whole person was wrong, and her mind was also confused, and she did not forget to shout for them to go, but instead of leaving, they laughed wildly, and the laughter seemed to penetrate her ears like a membrane, and roared.

While her eyes were still open, but there was no luster in them, one of the thugs laughed and laughed, and suddenly covered her neck, and her mouth was painfully "ahhhhh

He choked on his own saliva!

His companions thought he was pretending, and one of them kicked him: "Okay, don't pretend, pretend ......."

The kicking action is often done by this person, but on this day, because of the kicking of his companion, he slipped inexplicably, and his head hit a raised stone on the ground, and he closed his breath with his eyes open.

The last thug saw a lot of blood coming out of the back of his head when he landed, and knew that something was wrong, so he ran out of the alley in fear, and as soon as he got out, he was hit by an oncoming car and killed on the spot.

When Shen Xi arrived, what he saw was the scene of the man being knocked out, he rushed into the alley with a solemn face, and saw Xiaobei standing against the wall in a daze, and there were already two corpses lying on the ground.

Secretly said badly, and came to Xiaobei in a deep way: "Xiaobei? ”

Xiaobei didn't react, sighed deeply, took her into his arms, raised his hand, there was a circle of water waves to encircle the two of them, when they walked out like this, no one saw them, and went straight past them to see the person who was knocked away, and later found the body in the alley, but Shen Xi had already left with Xiaobei.

After that day, Xiaobei and Shen Xi took a long vacation together.

"Don't worry," Shen Xi put the brewed milk into Xiaobei's hand, "You are almost an adult now, your breath is a little unstable, and after your birthday, you will be fine." ”

"Okay?" Xiaobei looked up in a daze, is that what she understands?

"yes," Shen Xi pinched her nose, "will you be completely well, really well, happy?" ”

"Really, really, or false?" She couldn't believe it, "How is this possible?" ”

"What's impossible." Shen Xi smiled softly, "Will I lie to you?" ”

"I, of course I believe you, but I, my parents, they ......" is still running around for her physical affairs, the closer she is to eighteen years old, the more anxious she is, in the past year, they don't even have time to come back, and they will call back after a long time, all of which tell her to be well.

Shen Xi smiled quite confidently: "No matter what, I am also a god, and I can naturally do what they can't do." Okay, is it true or not, don't you know if it's your birthday? ”

Xiaobei nodded stupidly, and then became happy again: "In another month, I, I can really live like a normal person?" ”

"I'm afraid it won't work."

"Huh?"

Shen Xi smiled: "Just your room, this life must be indispensable to the stimulation of demons and monsters, and you still want to live in peace?" Thinking about it? ”

Xiaobei scratched her head, hehe smirked, she had expectations for her future life, she secretly looked at Shen Xi, thinking that if she could be normal, then she and him would ...... Is it possible?

Xiaobei's previously dead heart is alive again.

When the birthday is over, she can still be fine, and she will confess!

Shen Xi went to the kitchen to pour water, met Brother Bao who was standing in the kitchen at some point, and said with a smile: "What are you doing hiding in the kitchen?" ”

Brother Bao stared at him suspiciously, and replied, "Do you really have a way to solve my sister's problem?" Didn't you say before that you couldn't do it? ”

"Just because I didn't have it before doesn't mean I don't have it now," Shen Xi poured water, looking at the crystal water, his eyes became deeper and deeper, "I have a way now, aren't you happy?" ”

"I'm naturally happy that my sister can get better, but ......" Brother Bao always felt that something was wrong.

"Just be happy." He walked out of the kitchen with his water glass, "I just hope she's happy." ”

In the next month, because of the hope in her heart, Xiaobei not only did not feel uncomfortable hiding at home and not being able to go out, but was very comfortable, she secretly told her brother to buy her something back, and she repeatedly carried Shen Xi to do something, she prepared a gift, and wanted to be able to confess on her birthday.

However, he couldn't wait for the day she gave the gift, that is, on the eve of her birthday, to sink him......

The day before her birthday, Shen Xi said that she wanted to celebrate with her in advance.

"Wait for tomorrow, I don't know how many people will celebrate you, although your parents haven't rushed back yet, your brother will definitely do it for you, and then your grandparents, your uncle, and your parents' weird friends, like that Uncle Hu, will definitely not let you go tomorrow, as your best friend, I want to apply to celebrate your birthday with you one day earlier, let me have an exclusive day, is it okay my friend?"

Xiaobei nodded affirmatively: "Okay, but what are we going to do?" ”

"I've thickened your 'magic clothes', it's definitely okay to last a day, let's go out and play."

"Yes, yes."

That day, he took her to the restaurant where she had been wanting to eat for a long time, experienced the legendary romantic restaurant, and took her to a movie, but Xiaobei was timid and couldn't sneak around in the dark, and couldn't pretend to be afraid of crying in his arms, which made her regretful.

It was still early to watch the movie, and he took her to the amusement plaza.

The amusement square at night is very beautiful, there are a lot of people and it is very lively, Xiaobei has only a handful of times to come out at night, Shen Xi seems to be going to exhaust the effect of the magic clothes at one time this time, and she can not only come out at night, but also in a place where there are so many people, he is clear to her, and he must ensure that there will be no problems before he will bring her out.

They got on the little train, swam around the whole square, they went to the pool, looked at the water of all shapes and colors, she secretly looked at his side face by the colorful light, secretly stood against him by the crowd of people, almost squeezed into his arms, which made her feel sweet like never before.

Finally, it is natural to take a ride on the Ferris wheel, which everyone admires.

When the Ferris wheel rose to its highest, she sat beside him, and finally mustered up the courage to accumulate a day, climbed his arm, and took a breath: "Shenxi, I ......"

"I'm leaving."

Little Betton lived, he just said, what did he say?

Shen Xi turned his head sideways and looked down at her, his face was still that leisurely look, as if what he had just said was just a joke, but he repeatedly confirmed that it was not a joke: "I'm going back." ”

"Where's it going?" Xiaobei smiled reluctantly, "Yes, go home?" Yes, it's so late, we have to go back, and after this Ferris wheel, we will go home. ”

"Becky, I mean, I'm going back to where I came from."

The strength in his body flowed away as quickly as quicksand, and Xiaobei grabbed his arm in a panic: "Didn't you promise me that you would accompany me?" ”

"Do you remember, at the beginning, you saved me, I asked you, how do you want me to repay you, you said, you want a friend?"

Xiaobei looked at him in a daze, and smiled lightly at him: "Look, over the years, what my friend has done is qualified?" ”

"Could it be," Xiaobei's eyes reddened in disbelief, "everything you have done to me all these years is just because, because of repaying your kindness?" Just because of that? Don't you have a ...... for me, and you don't have for me? Don't have a little bit of affection? ”

"Feelings? What feelings? Shen Xi seemed to be puzzled, and then suddenly said, "Feelings are naturally there, I will still remember that there was such a little friend as you." But," he sighed self-deprecatingly, "I have existed in this world for countless years, and no feelings are worth mentioning in this torrent of time. ”

"Not worth mentioning? Nothing? Xiao Bei muttered this word, his expression was dazed, and then he laughed out loud in a ridiculous way, "I, the feelings I regard as treasures, in your place, are not worth mentioning?" ”

Seeing her like this, Shen Xi shook his head, a little helpless: "In this world, people can't escape love, hate, hatred, and obsession, I know what you think in your heart, I thought I didn't respond to you, you would understand, but you still fell deep." Xiaobei, in the future, you will grow up, you will be able to practice, and in your living life, there is nothing more than cultivating your mind, and you will know sooner or later that feelings are the most unneeded ......"

"Don't tell me this!" Xiaobei roared loudly, and tears burst into tears, "What kind of bullshit is this, you just say that you don't love me, why deny my feelings!" ”

He watched her shed tears, subconsciously raised his fingers to help her wipe them off, but his hand stopped in mid-air, retracted his fingers into his fist, and put them down silently.

"I ask you," she glared at him with red eyes, "are you really leaving?" ”

"I stayed just to repay the favor, I have also been your friend for ten years, it must be enough, as soon as your birthday is over, you will have a new life and new friends, and you don't need me anymore."

"Then I don't want to live a normal life." She knelt in her seat and leaned towards him, "I don't want to go to school, I don't want to see anyone, I can be in the darkness forever, I won't have any other friends, I won't have a new life, like this...... Will you stay so much? ”

Shen Xi pressed her shoulders and stopped her from approaching, with that gentle appearance on his face, but he was almost ruthless: "Don't say stupid things Xiaobei, if you want to do this, you will make me look down on you." Think about your parents, think about your brother, think about those who love you, you have to live a wonderful life. ”

He looked out and pointed to one of the brightest stars in the sky: "I'll be there, watching you, if you blame me, try to live happily, let me regret it." ”

Becky sat down in her seat, watching the Ferris wheel turn around and the workshop she was in slowly approached the ground.

She thought it would be nice if she had the magic of time to stand still, so that they could never fall to the ground.

But Cinderella's magic clothes have to be returned at twelve o'clock, and everything will be beaten back to reality without accidents.

Her prince would not come to her wearing a crystal slipper.

Instead......

When he landed, the door opened, and Shen Xi got up and walked out unappretently.

He paused for a moment, turned to look at her who was still sitting stupidly, and said softly, "Don't cry anymore." ”

She looked at him stupidly, smackedly, always feeling that there was a next sentence behind this sentence.

But it was just her delusion, and without a word, he turned and left.

The prince did not come to her with the crystal slipper, and poached out her heart, and did not look back!

"Heavy!"

She panicked and hurriedly jumped out to catch up, but there were many people waiting to ride the Ferris wheel, blocking her way, and when she finally chased to the square, she couldn't even see a shadow.

"Heavy!"

"Heavy!"

"Heavy!"

She screamed in the square, and was ignored by the onlookers, crying and shouting for him to come out.

Even if she takes another look!

What dignity, what chic, when that heart is so distressed that it can't breathe, I really would rather be humble, as long as it can relieve that little bit of pain.

But until she knelt on the ground, her eyes were red from crying, and she didn't show up.

Clearly...... Obviously, in the past, even if she shed a tear, he would be so distressed that he would compromise with her about everything.

But he actually told her that the kindness he had to her, the memories that made her feel special, very good, were just the ...... he played in order to fulfill his promises How so, how could it be......

It turns out that such a thing as feelings can also be acted?

She looked up at the sky, hoping to see something, but at some point a dark cloud covered the sky above her, obscuring all the stars.

She sat there stupidly, only to feel as if she was frozen there, unable to move.

Time passed slowly, and at twelve o'clock, out of nowhere, an ancient bell rang out.

The dark clouds opened a hole, and a golden light shone down, completely enveloping Xiao Bei who was sitting on the ground, and the people who came and went around were instantly frozen in time, stopping at what they were doing, until the golden light was completely absorbed into Xiao Bei's body, and everything returned to its original state.

Xiaobei looked at the sky fixedly, and the next moment, his eyes closed and he fainted.

Then this scene, the people around didn't seem to see it, and after resuming the action, they walked past her one by one.

……

Xiaobei opened her eyes and saw that the breeze gently blew the curtains up and then fell gently, Xiaobei had a feeling that she had slept for a long time and was very tired and tired.

"Awake?"

Xiaobei moved her eyes and looked at Brother Bao who was sitting on the edge of the bed, she tried to sit up, but Brother Bao reached out and helped her.

Xiaobei, who was leaning on the head of the bed, saw her room clearly, just the bed she was lying on, the small desk and bookshelves, and the pillows scattered randomly on the carpet.

There was no extra bed, no curtain in the middle, no bigger bookshelves......

It is very similar to the furnishings she used to wear when she was a child, but it gives her a very strange and empty feeling.

He's gone, and he's gone to wipe out all the traces he left behind?

"How did I get back?" She asked in a hoarse voice.

Brother Bao hurriedly handed her the water prepared on the bedside table: "What about it, it's okay to go out to play, do you just sleep in the square as a bed?" It hurt Lao Tzu to run to find you in the middle of the night, and he had to carry you back. ”

"Oh." She leaned back in disappointment, holding her glass of water.

Seeing this, Brother Bao just wanted to say something, the door was knocked twice, and then opened from the outside, a woman poked her head in, saw Xiaobei wake up, walked in happily with a plate of cakes, squeezed Brother Bao's position and sat down, hugged Xiaobei and kissed her forehead: "Mom's baby, you are awake, look, this is the cake that Mommy made for you, your favorite, hurry up and brush your teeth and eat delicious." ”

may not be able to accompany her daughter to grow up, when she was very young, she often left her to be taken care of by her brother, and every time Ban Lan came back to see her daughter, she was very enthusiastic, as if she wanted to give all her love at once.

Xiaobei was taken by her and had no time to think about anything else, and was already pushed into the bathroom in a daze.

Of course, Ban Lan couldn't just care about her daughter and forget her son, after her daughter entered the bathroom, she turned around and was about to pounce on Brother Bao: "Xiaobao, mom ......"

"Stop, stop!" Brother Bao stepped back, while raising his hands to block her from approaching, "You dare to hug me, Dad knows and wants to review the boxing techniques he taught me back then, please, let go of your son and me, let me be beaten less, okay?" ”

"Stinky boy." Ban Lan poked his head, and then lamented, "How cute I was when I was a child, holding my leg all day my mother screamed, how can I get more and more mixed up the more I grow up." ”

"Besides, who let you have a husband who is jealous and violent!" The grievances in Brother Bao's heart have nowhere to say.

When he was a child, he was fine, but when he grew older and older, his father couldn't accept that he was too close to his mother, that old vinegar maniac.

Ban Lan glanced at him, then sat down on the edge of the bed, looked at the direction of the bathroom and sighed helplessly: "Xiaobao, you said Xiaobei ...... her"

Brother Bao also restrained the smile on his face and rubbed his face: "Don't worry, Xiaobei...... I always get through it. ”

The days that followed were peaceful.

Qiu Shishi and his wife did not go out again, and accompanied their daughter with peace of mind, but they didn't go out of their way to mention anything, they were all about what to do, Qiu Shiren should train his son and daughter to do the same, Xiaobei seems to be no different, eat three meals as usual, and be coquettish with his father, see if he can do less morning exercise and sleep more, and instigate his brother to accompany her to do bad things for her, and please her mother to let her give herself more pocket money.

She's doing well.

It looks like this.

But she didn't go to school, she said she wouldn't go, after her birthday, as Shen Xi said, the fate she had borne for many years was untied overnight, she was like a normal person, she wouldn't touch anything dead, she didn't have to be suppressed by her side, she could run in the sun, but she just didn't want to go to school, and she didn't even want to walk around her neighbors and go outside.

I just want to be a housegirl at home, and seeing her smile happily with her family doesn't seem to have a mental problem.

If you want to say something wrong, it's that she is often in a daze, talking to you, talking and talking, she is silent, doing housework, she just stands stupidly and doesn't move, and the water is boiling so much that she doesn't react.

A month passed like this, and one night, when everyone was asleep, Qiu Shiren suddenly heard a small movement.

Without alarming his wife, he got up and went to the living room.

The living room was quiet, but with the faint sound of the wind, he found the rooftop, and sure enough, he saw his daughter sitting on the swing rocking chair on the rooftop.

He walked over and didn't ask her why she didn't sleep at night, he just sat down quietly beside her.

"Daddy," becky tilted his head and fell on his father's broad shoulder, "which star in the sky do you say is the brightest?" ”

"Whichever one you think is the brightest, the one is the brightest."

"Why?"

"When you only have that star in your eye, can you see anything else? Isn't the star you can see at a glance the brightest? ”

Xiaobei nodded, looking at the star that was obviously not prominent among all the stars, but she could see it at a glance, it was the star that was in the Ferris wheel that night, and the star that followed her fingers.

Tears slipped from the corners of her eyes, and she shook her jaw uncontrollably: "Dad, I, I miss him so much, I have so many ways to make myself forget him, but I don't want to forget him at all." ”

Those memories that are not worth mentioning to Shen Xi, she is reluctant to discard them bit by bit.

Qiu Shishi's arm bent, his palm covered his daughter's head, and patted it gently.

"Dad, do you blame me, until now, I still think he lied to me, or do I think he must like me, am I, am I sick?"

"The children of the enemy, if you like it, you like it, if you hate it, if you can't let it go, you can't let it go, if you can't admit it, whoever says you're sick, Dad will let him know what is sick."

Becky laughed at what he said, and turned to bury her face in her father's shoulder.

Qiu Shishi sighed lightly: "I think at the beginning, I also thought that your mother liked me, and she had the courage to kiss me, but she actually made an excuse that she was possessed, hum, I didn't believe her nonsense, anyway, I kissed her, so I had to be my daughter-in-law, and I couldn't run away." ”

Xiaobei couldn't help but laugh again, envious of his parents.

But I heard my father say: "Just think about him, just keep thinking about him, take him as your goal, and try to make yourself strong." Even if it is a god, sooner or later he will be knocked down from heaven and carried home, and Daddy will call the shots for you and let you marry him! ”

"How about letting him be your daughter-in-law?"

Xiao Bei nodded again and again: "Okay, okay, I will work hard to cultivate, sooner or later, I will knock him down from the sky, carry him home, and marry a daughter-in-law!" ”

The tears burst instantly, and she wiped them clean again.

Crybaby has no one to help her wipe her tears, so she can only be strong by herself!

……

After a month of calm, the storm finally came.

In other words, after ten years of calm, the world is chaotic again, and the filth hidden in the darkness all the year round suddenly emerges from some corners, causing all kinds of troubles to the yang world, car accidents, brawls, all kinds of murders, and natural disasters, which are several times more likely to happen, the hungry ghost gulps up people, and the dead ghost is crazy to find a substitute, and the earth bound spirit makes the people who pass by repeat the same way of death, and a certain big country breaks out a war first, and I heard that there is a rebellion in the underworld......

The people of the enemy family are busy, and even Xiaobei has been dragged to be a strong man, anyway, she is not afraid of meeting people.

But she didn't understand, didn't Shen Xi go back to his original place, how could these things still happen? Could it be that something happened to him again?

While worrying and sinking, she acted as a little Taoist boy to follow behind her parents or brother, to help him, and to apply what she had learned over the years to practice, and she could be regarded as growing.

A senior executive of the Yin and Yang Bureau also praised her and asked her if she would also enter the Yin and Yang Bureau after graduation, and promised to give her a good position.

She smirked and didn't say yes.

On this day, I received a very urgent phone call, because Qiu Shishi and his wife were transferred to other places to help, so only Brother Bao took Xiaobei to set off, on the way, Xiaobei looked at Brother Bao with a more solemn expression than ever before, and asked him what happened and where the destination was this time, but Brother Bao looked at her vaguely and seemed reluctant to tell her.

In the end, he only said: "It is said that a fierce beast appeared in that place, and it has already eaten a lot of people, and the Yin and Yang Bureau has dispatched people to deal with it before us, but these capable people have either disappeared without exception, or only the stumps and bones are thrown out." ”

"Where?"

Where?

Playground Plaza!

Xiaobei got out of the car, looked at the gate of the square, and subconsciously covered his chest, as if he could resist the surging emotions.

It was here, right here that night, that she lost Shen Xi......

"Becky?" Brother Bao looked at her worriedly, "Why don't you stay in the car, I'll just go in and deal with it, I don't need you." ”

Xiaobei took a deep breath, and then said to her brother without incident: "I'm fine, let me follow you, the Yin and Yang Bureau has given me a ten-level danger, I don't worry about you going in by yourself." ”

She has grown up, her brother has protected him for so many years, she also has to protect her brother once, at the beginning of today, her brother did not agree to her coming, and he didn't plan to tell her, it was Qiu's father who suddenly called back, saying that she must follow Brother Bao today.

It must be that something will happen to her brother, and her father wants her to look at her brother, otherwise how could her father explain such a thing.

Brother Bao patted her head: "You protect yourself first, your brother and I have rough skin and thick meat, and we can carry it better than you." I don't know what Dad was thinking. ”

He glanced at his watch, put a backpack on his back, and said to Xiaobei: "Let's go, go in, remember to follow me, don't run around by yourself." He was afraid that something would happen to her and he wouldn't be able to save her.

Xiaobei nodded seriously, she was afraid that something would happen to her brother and she would not have time to protect herself.

The two brothers and sisters walked towards the gate of the square, the entire amusement square has been completely blocked, when the brothers and sisters entered, the square was very lively at night, there would be no one, and many things were destroyed, the tourist train was broken into several sections, there was no water in the fountain, the water at the bottom of the pool was red, I don't know how many people died to dye the pool water this color.

Becky closed her eyes uncomfortably.
