After speaking, Jiang You waved his hand at Tang Butian.

Tang Butian watched him walk out of the door of the venue, and the sunlight gilded him with a pale golden outline.

Her fingers clenched, then released again.

After walking out of the exhibition center, Jiang You directly called a car and went back to the worm house.

entered the courtyard and stepped on the bluestone path.

The grass had just emerged from the mud, tender and green, and on the flower stand by the door, the sunflowers were in full bloom.

Jiang You opened the door.

After walking to the counter, he thought for a moment and instead of sitting down, he went upstairs first. He walked into the guest room, pulled out a wooden pen holder from the box on the wall, took the pen holder into the bathroom, poured some water into it, and then walked downstairs with it.

After placing the pen holder on the counter, he opened the drawer, took out a pair of scissors, then went to the flower stand, cut five or six sunflowers, and he walked back with the flowers in one hand and the scissors in the other.

He put the flower branch into the pen holder, and then placed the pen holder on the long table.

He took out his mobile phone, swiped on the screen, the screen was still Xia Xia's Weibo homepage, he pressed the home button, and when he was about to turn on the camera, the wind blew and the door of the insect house slammed shut.

Then he heard the sound of the door locking.

A white, translucent silk thread about six or seven centimeters long drilled out of the mobile phone screen.

One another, and another.

Floats in mid-air.

The lights went on a bit.

A room full of white silk threads intertwined.

One after another, white tails, nine white tails, flying outward along the curve of the waist and hips.

Turn around.

Black hair fluttering.

Zhu Yan is delicate, and the autumn waves are affectionate.

Nine-Tails Daji.

Jiang You asked tentatively, "Xia Xia?" ”

"It's me." Xia Xia lowered her eyes.

A black spider with a red thread on its back climbed onto the table.

Jiang You said to Xia Xia, "Do you eat cold drinks?" Baxi or cute? ”

Xia Xia opened her red lips slightly and looked at Jiang You in puzzlement.

"I just saw you in the clearing, so sunburning, and wearing nine tails, it's hot, right?"

Xia Xia hung her head and whispered, "It's so cute." ”

"Wait a minute, I'll get it."

After speaking, Jiang You went upstairs.

The spider crawled in front of Xia Xia.

A spider silk landed on Xia Xia's wrist, she raised her hand, wanting to pull the spider silk away, at this time she heard Jiang You's voice, "Don't move, if you don't want to disappear immediately." ”

Spider silk is wound in a circle.

Jiang You walked down with two cones.

He handed Xia Xia a cone, Xia Xia hesitated, but still reached out her hand, she grabbed the cone, her fingers felt the coldness, her eyes widened in shock, and then, she wanted to look at the spider silk on her wrist.

"Help you maintain a certain degree of materialization, sit down," Jiang You sat down opposite Xia Xia, he took a bite of the cone, "Why follow me and don't go to your junior sister?" ”

Xia Xia sat down, "At that time, I felt that someone was searching for my name. ”

"Your life is gone, you still care about Weibo."

Red tears flowed from her eyes.

"Let's have a cold drink."

"Hmm." Xia Xia hummed softly, she tore open the wrapper, took small bites, and after eating for a while, her movements suddenly stopped, and tears flowed down again, "I can eat, I, I don't hurt anymore." ”

"Is it delicious?"

"It's icy, it's sweet."

Jiang You stood up again, he walked to the counter, took a box of tissues, and put it in front of Xia Xia.

"This cossuit, tail, headdress, I made it myself, the makeup is also my own design, I caught the first subway, the first batch to enter the exhibition center, I attracted everyone's attention, the cameraman chased me, I made a random move, I will hear a lot of shutter sounds, and there are many people who take photos with me, ask for my contact information, the event is over, after the picture, my attention has skyrocketed, endless private messages, comments, and forwards......"

Xia Xia pulled the corners of her mouth and pulled out a smile, "Am I too vain?" ”

Without waiting for Jiang You to answer, she continued, "However, it feels so good to be liked and paid attention to." I put all my energy into it, I, I also learned to give benefits, but, but the heat has been declining. ”

"Who gave you your tattoo stickers?"

"What tattoo stickers?"

"A pentagram with an eye in the middle."

Xia Xia thought for a while, "A friend in the group, he is a cameraman, I modeled him and took a bathrobe, he asked me to put this tattoo sticker, he told me that it would bring good luck, that day, my set of pictures was really on the hot search that day, and then ......"

Xia Xia's expression became frightened, she seemed to remember something, "I, that's from there, I, I'm ......" She covered her face with her hands, "I don't understand how I could have become like that, I, how could I be for a set of clothes, for the heat...... No, no, that's not me, it's not me......"

Her body began to distort and blur, as if it could dissipate at any moment.

"Hurry up and eat, it's going to melt."

A drop of ice cream ran down the crust of the cone onto her hand.

"Hmm...... Ah......h

Her body was clear again.

This time, she stopped talking, and she quietly finished the cone in her hand. Then, she put her hands on the table.

She said, "Thank you. ”

"What else do you want to eat? Esophageal cancer is painful, right? ”

"That's enough."

She calmed down.

"That tattoo, what's wrong with it?"

"I'm just guessing."

"Tell me." Xia Xia's eyes were very persistent.

"Gods and demons are fed with blood, and if it fulfills your wishes, it will take the price from you, your life force. This is a famous quote from a real estate speculator. ”

"Can I live a long time, can I not have cancer?"

"You're not short-lived."

"I could have graduated successfully, found a stable job, did my favorite crafts in my spare time, occasionally went to comic conventions, made cos, and even fell in love and got married and had my own children, right?"

"It shouldn't be difficult," Jiang You looked at the sunflower in the pen holder on the table, "You only have a little obsession left now." ”

"Is that so?"

Jiang You stretched out his hand and touched his fingers on the spider's back, "It feeds on obsessions, and in exchange, you can make a request." ”

"Is anything okay?"

"It's too difficult, if you can't finish it, then you can't finish it," Jiang You took the finger that was open on the spider's back, "It won't starve to death for a while anyway." ”

Xia Xia pulled out a tissue, she wiped her eyes and hands, "I hope you can save others, one is good, the more the better." ”

Jiang You stood up, he walked to the shelf, pulled out a blank postcard, he walked back to the long table, took out the pen from the box, and put the postcard and pen in front of Xia Xia.

Xia Xia asked, "What is this?" ”

"Write down what you want to say to yourself in the future."

"I, can I still receive it?"

"I'll send it to you."

Xia Xia picked up the pen.

She slowly began to write.

White threads floated out of her body, and little by little her body melted into the postcard as the handwriting increased.

Disappear.

The spider crawled off the table.

Jiang You picked up the postcard, and the originally blank space became a portrait of the nine-tailed Daji.

On the other side, there are a few lines of words written in a beautiful font.

I hope that in the future, you will have a down-to-earth life and a down-to-earth harvest - Xia Zhiwan.
