Chapter 411: Ghosts
Ye Yun'er walked to the corridor, and the sound of footsteps alarmed the cicadas.
"Didn't I say that without my call, don't come and disturb me at will?" The cicada didn't look back, and drank impatiently.
"Can't even I bother you?" Ye Yun'er chuckled.
Hearing Ye Yun'er's voice, the cicada immediately jumped up, turned around, smiled, and jumped up and hugged her without saying anything.
"Sister Ye, it's really you!"
Then, she trembled her lips a few times aggrievedly, and sobbed, "Why haven't you come to see me for so many days?" I thought I'd never see you again......"
Ye Yun'er saw that she was overjoyed and then sad, and became more and more distressed, and said with some apologies: "I'm sorry, it's because I have followed the fourth prince out of the house in the past few days, so I delayed the time and came to see you so late." ”
After listening to Ye Yun'er's explanation, Cicada'er's heart was somewhat better.
She straightened up, wiped her tears, looked at Ye Yun'er with big hazy eyes, and said sadly: "You guys are so good, you can go wherever you want, but I can't even take a step out of this small courtyard." ”
Ye Yun'er's heart tightened a little, and she didn't know what to say for a while.
She knew that there were people from the Zhuo clan all around this courtyard, and if she said that Zhuo's words were not here, I was afraid that it would reach her ears immediately.
In this way, not only will he become more and more antagonistic to Zhuo's family, but it will definitely be harmful to the cicada.
She gently stroked the cicada's head, and guilt and pity welled up together, leaving her with mixed feelings.
"Shall we go inside?" Ye Yun'er took Cicada'er's hand and proposed.
Cicada understood her thoughts, so she took her into her room, and specially instructed the people outside that no one was allowed to come in and disturb without her instructions.
She closed the door and deliberately fastened the latch, as if she had a very hostile attitude towards the outside world.
Ye Yun'er sighed lightly, squatted down to face the cicada, held her shoulders with both hands, and said sincerely after thinking about it: "Cicada, it's all because of my single-mindedness that you are in such a difficult situation, I ...... I'm so sorry. ”
Seeing Ye Yun'er blaming herself like this, Cicada'er's cold heart suddenly softened, and she comforted her in turn, "Sister Ye, don't say that." I know you're thinking about me, and think it's better for me to stay at home than to wander outside, but it's just that the truth is very different from what you think. ”
In Ye Yun'er's opinion, Cicada is still so sensible.
"But," the cicada lowered her head again, hiding the misty tears from her eyes, "I really don't want to stay here any longer...... If I stay here any longer, I'll go crazy one day! ”
This sentence made Ye Yun'er's heart skip a beat.
She thought that the cicada was just depressed, where did she think that she had such a deep resistance to this family?
She knows that sometimes children's words are not just innocent jokes. In particular, this red flag is worth paying attention to.
Her words and expressions all revealed how much she hated this home, how much she wanted to resist, and how much she wanted to escape......
If I don't help her, I'm afraid she will really go crazy, or do something even more jaw-dropping and regretful.
"Cicada, why do you think that?" Ye Yun'er couldn't bear it anymore, lowered her voice and asked anxiously, "What did they do to you?" Did they abuse you? ”
Cicada sniffled before saying, "They didn't abuse me, they just kept me from stepping out of this courtyard, and for me, this is more worrying than abuse." ”
Ye Yun'er listened to it and was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but she heard the cicada's voice change sharply, turning from anger to a trembling voice with a hint of fear, "It's just that there is one more thing that makes me really not want to stay here." ”
Seeing that Cicada'er's shoulders also trembled a little, Ye Yun'er understood that she had encountered an extremely terrifying thing.
Otherwise, how could a person as bold as a cicada be scared into such a pale and bloodless appearance?
"Cicada, what's the matter, don't you say anything to me?" Ye Yun'er said sincerely, "Maybe I can help you, maybe what?" ”
Cicada looked at Ye Yun'er in a daze, and said a little weakly, "But can you?" This is the palace, and it's all her people, and no one can fight against her......"
"But if she bullies you, I will never sit idly by." Ye Yun'er was determined to help Cicada Er get out of the predicament, and encouraged softly, "Think about how many difficulties and obstacles we encountered in the past, didn't we solve them one by one and survive?" Although the difficulties we are facing at this time are tricky, they are not necessarily impossible to solve. ”
Ye Yun'er's words really inspired Cicada and gave her the courage to say what was in her heart.
She suddenly looked out the window, her eyes widening in horror, and she slowly raised her fingers, "Every night, there...... There will be ghosts ......"
This voice was low and ethereal, so gloomy and sympathetic that it sounded like a ghost, which made Ye Yun'er shudder.
She followed the cicada's hand and looked out the window.
But there, there is only a sunset afterglow, and a few bamboo leaves fluttering in the wind, and nothing else?
"When did this happen?" Ye Yun'er asked.
She would never think that this was a child's imagination or a casual lie.
Other children may do this, but they are as smart as cicadas, and they will never make something out of nothing to Ye Yun'er, who trusts her very much, and try to scare her with this.
Then there is only one other possibility left - the cicada really saw the ghost.
Cicada looked at the window for a while, quickly glanced away, and looked at Ye Yun'er, "Since the first day I came back, until now, every night." ”
Ye Yun'er's heart was not only tightened, but also dripping blood.
She became more and more remorseful, and asked herself why she didn't come to visit the cicada first, so that she had been frightened for so many days in a row.
Such a fright can still be dissipated for an adult, but for a child under the age of ten, it is impossible to imagine how great the damage will be. Maybe I'll live in this shadow for the rest of my life.
Her hands holding the cicada couldn't help but tighten even tighter, stabilized her mind for a moment, and then asked in a deep voice, "Then can you tell me what this ghost is like?" ”
This time, the cicada gradually trembled violently, apparently thinking back to the situation that caught her in the situation, so frightened that she covered her head and shook her head in panic, "No, I don't want to say any more!" I don't want to say any more! ”
Seeing this, Ye Yun'er hurriedly hugged her whole person into her arms, and suddenly had the urge to cry.
