Chapter 1: Entering the "Ghost Market" by Mistake
Under the shade of the trees and the sound of cicadas, several young people in bachelor's uniforms laughed and laughed, and kept posing for photos in various poses......
Finally, when night fell, everyone packed up their bags and waved goodbye, goodbye to their alma mater, goodbye classmates and roommates, goodbye to dear desks and chairs......
"Huh, Rongrong? Why are you still here. It was Mu Yunrong's roommate who spoke, and Mu Yunrong jumped up from the desk in a hurry, "Oh my head, you scared me to death, why did you come back." ”
The roommate smiled and asked, "Don't be stupid, Xiao Rongrong, why are you sitting on the desk if you have nothing to do, and if you don't go home, where are you going to wave?" ”
Mu Yunrong frowned, and kept touching her head that had just hit the bed, "I'm going to find a job here and rent a house first, and I'm still laughing, not allowed to laugh." ”
The roommate covered his closed mouth with his hand and squeaked: "The house is simple, my family has a courtyard near here, but there are fewer residents over there now, can you be alone?" ”
Mu Yunrong immediately nodded and agreed: "One person can, yes, the rent is ......"
"You don't have to worry about the rent, it's all your own people, I'll go home and tell my dad, and I'll send you the key by the way." After the roommate finished speaking seriously, Mu Yunrong was really polite: "Enough buddy." ”
Mu Yunrong, who was dragging her suitcase, was looking at the address given to her by her roommate, and at the same time navigating with her mobile phone, it is true that there are few residents, and there is only one family here! "Overgrown with weeds and shrouded in mist, am I here to cultivate immortals?"
This should be the place. Mu Yunrong pushed open the gate of the courtyard, and a thick gray came to her face, "Ahem, mom, ahem, can this live?"
She waved her hand in front of her and stepped over the threshold, "Oh, the deep mansion compound! But in order to save some rent, the old lady also let it go."
After Mu Yunrong entered the courtyard, she sorted it out seriously before saying, "It's not bad, there are flowers, grass, birds and trees, the key is that the house is big or I live alone, I really enjoy it." She comforted herself so happily.
After tidying up the room, she changed into a set of ordinary work clothes, touched up her makeup, looked in the mirror, smiled with satisfaction, and walked out of the door with a small bag on her back.
In an empty office, a man sits upright, staring intently at a portrait in a daze, not even noticing that anyone else is coming in.
"I'm thinking about my sister-in-law again, how many times do you think about people every day, and as soon as you have nothing to do, you start to think, if your sister-in-law is still there, she will definitely be moved."
The man didn't raise his head, and his voice didn't pit him, and the people who came in could only laugh and say: "Big brother, there are thousands of women in the world, do you want to think about it again, the rain and dew are all wet?" The man finally spoke: "Get out." ”
There was a shout, and everyone outside the office was startled. "This can't be done, people are here to report to you, how can you go out before you report." The person who came in pretended to be innocent.
"You're a man or a woman, don't talk to me like that, it'll give me goosebumps." The man murdered him.
The person who came in sorted out the clothes or something, and said solemnly: "Sister-in-law has news, according to the time, she should be twenty-four years old this year," "What, she...... It's been twenty-four years, how did you find out, what did you do," the man became more and more murderous.
He hurriedly jumped out of the man's desk and replied: "You asked me to find a needle in a haystack, but there is still no mark, except for giving me eight days of her birthday, let me check it for more than 800 years, big brother......"
The man ignored him either, with a happy expression on his face, and silently chanted in his mouth: "It's good that she appears, it's good if she appears......"
Mu Yunrong, who lives here, can only rely on No. 11 to get to the outside world, and it takes half an hour to walk to the bus booth.
So how do you say that sentence, it's not so easy to be greedy for a small bargain!
After interviewing a few companies, Mu Yunrong was tired, hungry and thirsty, so she could only go to the supermarket to carry a box of instant noodles home.
"Why, why, why is it that my journey home is long, and I have to move so many things, when I don't have money, why do I buy a box of instant noodles, why do I buy this pot and pan, why do I buy mineral water, who will help me...... Mu Yunrong, you can, um. ”
Her thin body carried instant noodles, held mineral water, a few delicate fingers, tightly hooked the bag containing kettles and chopsticks, cried and mourned, and moved step by step from the bus shelter to the direction of the courtyard, not to mention how stiff her movements were.
It's just, "It's strange, I should have walked for almost half an hour, why haven't I seen the other courtyard?" Could it be that I'm walking too slowly......" Mu Yunrong said through gritted teeth as she walked with difficulty.
After moving for so long, I just don't see the other courtyard, this is "a road to the dark"!
The moonlight was hidden in the treetops, and the phone was about to run out of battery, she simply stopped, turned off the flashlight in the phone, closed her eyes for a while and then opened them, looking at the darkness and silence around her, what else could she do: "Persistence is victory, go home!" ”
She slowly moved her sore, aching feet, and all she could hear was the sound of her own breathing, her heartbeat, and the sound of her own footsteps.
Suddenly, she saw two bright lights in front of her approaching her, and then a cat burst out with a "meow", which frightened her to freeze, followed by a scream of "Ah......hhhhhh
After making sure that the surroundings were around again, it was still dark and there was no other sound, she gritted her teeth and gave herself courage and said, "What are you afraid of, it's just a cat, hehe, hehehe." ”
Mu Yunrong began to move her steps again, "Anyway, this is the way home, it should be almost there, I'm almost home......" She kept comforting herself, her lips trembled, and her hands and feet trembled. Suddenly, a strong wind blew, and the leaves swirled and scattered, and the surroundings looked much more desolate.
Her head fryed: Where did the cat come from? There's no one living here...... There is nothing like that in the world, how far have I come? What about the annex?
She shuddered, and vaguely saw a light ahead: where did the light come from? Is there anyone living here...... Am I on the wrong track?
A lively scene appeared in front of Mu Yunrong's eyes: red lanterns hung on both sides of the road, people setting up stalls and people buying things gathered, all kinds of antiques and exquisite utensils, and all kinds of unknown animals' flesh and blood, huh......
It's just - why are the people here staring at me with all their eyes brushed together, and the expressions on their faces ...... Surprised and treacherous, like a man who has been hungry for three days and sees bread!
I don't have the money to go to the night market, don't look at me! Mu Yunrong pouted, thinking to herself.
Just as she was about to take a detour, a delicate and soft voice sounded: "Where is the girl going, is it the way home?" It's dark and windy this night, why are you alone? ”
