That night, Li Lu's parents also had a dream.

In her dream, Mother Li was a little girl who was only seventeen or eighteen years old, and she jumped to the gate of a courtyard to look for her friend.

Living in this courtyard is Li's mother's classmate, but Li's mother can't remember clearly, but she remembers that she was bedridden and didn't come to class for a week.

The moon was dark and the wind was high, and the dark sky was covered with dark clouds, and there was no wind, and there were no branches and shadows reflected on the earth. Mother Li knocked on the vermilion gate of the courtyard, and the gate made a dull sound. In the dim light, the red of the door looked like a smeared blood paste, and the hair was dry and old.

Mother Li touched the red paint on the door, but dyed her hand, and the red paint was like the skin of the door, falling off while making a miserable cry.

The door creaked open.

It's the uncle of Li's mother's classmate.

My uncle was short and dark, and his hair was messy, as if he hadn't washed it for a long time. He looked at Mother Li expressionlessly, his skin without a little fat clutched his jagged cheekbones, looking like a dead person.

But Mother Li didn't seem to notice this strange thing, she followed her uncle in, turned around three times and entered two times, and arrived in a room.

There were no beds in the room, but a hot kang that covered the whole house, and on top of the hot kang were many mattresses separately, all neatly arranged in a row, like a morgue. Mother Li's classmate was lying on the very edge, her face was pale, and there was no blood on her lips.

"You're here." Li's mother's classmate said expressionlessly.

Mother Li nodded, "What's wrong with you?" I haven't been in class for so long. ”

"I'm sick." Li's mother's classmate replied weakly, and then turned his gaze back and looked at the beams of the roof in distraction.

Mother Li sighed, took off her shoes, got on the hot kang, and sat next to her classmates. She took out a book and a pen from her bag, "You haven't been in class for so long, can I make it up for you?" ”

Li's mother's classmate nodded, "Thank you." ”

"Yo, you're her classmate, right? Sit down for a while, and I'll prepare your meal. ”

An old lady opened the door, saw Mother Li, and said gently, but she always felt that something was wrong, I don't know if it was because she didn't have much emotion, or her tone was too stiff. Mother Li still didn't notice it, as if it was all normal.

The old lady nodded, exited the door, but poked her head in again and asked, "By the way, little girl, do you have any change?" ”

"Change?" Mother Li looked at the old lady with some doubts.

"Well....." The old lady actually cast a worried look at Mother Li, "You can't go home without change....."

The inexplicable words made Mother Li a little flustered, for some reason, she obviously felt that everything was normal, but the old lady's words made her heart beat inexplicably. Mother Li's hands even trembled a little, and the pen she had just taken out suddenly fell on her classmate's mattress.

Mother Li hurriedly reached out to pick it up, but she didn't think that the pen got into her classmate's bed. The classmate slowly took out the pen and handed it to Li's mother.

Mother Li took the pen, but found that her classmate's hands were unusually cold.

What's going on....?

Mother Li's heart tightened, and she looked at her classmates a little nervously. Unexpectedly, the classmate had already sat up and looked at himself with a smile.

"It's time to eat." The classmate said softly.

.....

Li Lu's father also dreamed of his high school days.

Mother Li, who I like, seems to have gone to a classmate who has been sick in bed for a long time tonight. I heard that the same student lives far away, and it is very remote. It was already night, and Li's father went to Li's mother's house, but found that Li's mother had not returned, he was a little uneasy, and trotted all the way to the door of his classmate's house out of breath.

Father Li found that he couldn't get in.

What is especially surprising is that the courtyard of this fellow scholar has no door, just a dark red wall. The wall was so high and thick that it seemed to separate the whole world.

Father Li circled around the wall, but he couldn't find an entrance, not even a place to turn over. At this moment, he is anxious like an ant on a hot pot, scratching his ears and cheeks in a hurry, but there is no way.

Li's father took out a BB machine, which he secretly brought out from home, and he was afraid that he could still make a call when he couldn't find it, but he didn't expect that he still couldn't contact Li's mother, and the transfer station told Li's father that this person had no signal now. Father Li took back the BB machine in frustration and looked at the desperate wall in front of him in frustration.

At this time, from the other corner of the wall, an old lady slowly paced out.

"Hello, may I ask ....." Father Li stepped forward and wanted to ask where the door of this fellow scholar was, but was interrupted by the old lady.

"Do you have any change?" The old lady asked with a smile.

"Huh?" Father Li looked at the old lady suspiciously.

"You can't go home without change..... the old lady shook her head, sighed, and walked away slowly.

Father Li turned around and looked at the old lady who was drifting away, his heart was full of questions, he didn't know what the old lady meant, but he knew that this sentence must not be so simple. Turning his head again, Father Li saw a short, dark, sharp-beaked monkey cheek man, slowly walking out from behind the wall.

Father Li stepped forward to ask again, but he didn't think that the man didn't see him, and left with an expressionless face.

Father Li was stunned, not knowing what to do. He walked towards the place where the old lady and the man had come out, and thought that maybe there would be a place to enter and exit.

.....

Mother Li ate a bowl of noodle soup with her classmates, but the hot noodle soup did not warm her body. As soon as Li's mother came out of the dining room, she shivered from the cold, and she hurriedly ran back to the room where her classmates were lying, but as soon as she entered the door, Li's mother was stunned.

The classmate is gone.

Mother Li leaned down and touched the mattress where her classmate was lying, but there was no temperature at all.

Mother Li panicked and reflexively ran out of the door, only to find that the entire courtyard was empty.

Where have they gone.....

"Anyone?!" Mother Li shouted loudly, but no one answered.

The crows outside the courtyard were startled, and they flew out of the bushes and swept over Li Mu's head. Mother Li looked around and wanted to leave the courtyard, but found that the scarlet gate before was no longer there, and there were tall walls all around.

Mother Li was so frightened that she ran everywhere and searched everywhere, trying to escape, but she couldn't find an exit.

At this moment, she seemed to hear a voice, far and near, drifting into her ears.

"You know that.....

"Tell me....."

"That secret ....."

"What a secret, I don't know!" As soon as Mother Li finished speaking, she saw a dazzling white light outside the wall.

.....

The old lady's footsteps stopped, and she turned her head to look at the dark, short man.

"You didn't succeed," said the old lady with a smile.....

"Shut up." The man remained expressionless.

"You can't know the secrets my wife knows..... the old lady still smiled, "and I feel it, you can't control me now." ”

"Hmm..... I'm just a doppelganger, the mother in your grandson's dreams. The man stared at the old lady and sneered, "But without the spiritual money, you can't go back." ”

The old lady did not speak, turned around, hunched over her back and hands, and continued to walk with a smile.

.....

Mother Li and Father Li woke up at the same time, and they told their dreams in unison, so they hugged each other in surprise, marveling at what a coincidence, but at the same time they also had palpitations.

"I see, dreaming of my mother....." Mother Li suddenly whispered.

"Me .....too," Father Li pursed his lips, "Maybe the old man has no money down there..... Let's go burn some tomorrow....."

Mother Li nodded, then turned her head to look out the window, a trace of longing flashed in her eyes.
