The winter sun always sets early, and by the time I came out of the studio, it was already dark. The street lamps on both sides of the road are dim, which can illuminate a two-meter radius of oneself. From the teaching area to the dormitory area, you have to pass through a lake, called Matcha Lake, and I heard from the seniors that students once froze to death in it. Why freeze to death instead of drowning?

A few years ago, it was such a cold night, and the lake was already frozen. When a student passed by, he didn't know that the tendon was wrong and wanted to step on the ice. The ice along the shore was strong enough to bear his weight, and when he saw that it was okay to step on it, he walked inside, but this time he stepped on the ice hole, and he fell into it before he could pull out his feet and two legs, and it was easy to support him with his arms, exposing his head and neck, but he could not climb up. It should have been called for help, but no one passed by here at that time, and the patrolling security guards also said that they had not heard any unusual sounds. It's a pity that my life is gone, and when I found it, I still maintained that supporting posture, and I was already stiff.

I glanced at the lake, and it was as cold as if it were a man's collar. The more I thought about it, the more scary it became, so I gathered my clothes and ran back to the dormitory.

By the time I got back to the dorm, the other three were already under the covers. By the way, I forgot to introduce my new roommate, Xiao Wang, who was transferred from the dormitory next door, because he sometimes chattered, and the classmates next door said that they couldn't stand him. At this time, he was looking at some unknown book again, and when he saw me come back, his eyes suddenly turned to me like a torch.

"Where have you been?"

"Studio, I go every day."

"Passing by?"

...... "I think he's sick again, but for the sake of my new roommate, I patiently replied, "Buildings, trees, and lakes, I'll pass by on that road recently." ”

"Lake, is that the lake?"

I didn't bother to listen to what he had to say, so I washed up.

……

Somehow tonight, I can't feel warm even when I lie under two layers of quilts. Could it be that I have been too tired lately, my immunity is weak, and I am about to catch a cold when I blow the wind? Whatever he did, I tucked the corners of the quilt in and fell asleep. I thought I would be fine with a good night's sleep, but I didn't expect that to be far from the case.

The next day, I got up and got dressed, and my exposed arms and back were surrounded by cold air, and I shivered.

"Is it unusually cold today?"

I put on a warm suit, and then turned on my phone to see the temperature today, it's okay, it's only 7° – minus 5°, it's warmer than yesterday, why is it so cold? I put on yesterday's clothes and went to wash.

On the third day, the temperature rose and I felt colder than the second day.

On the fourth day, it was even colder.

"Xiaoge, what time is it, and you are shrinking into bed? Tomorrow weekend, get up and have fun. Xiaobai pushed the door in with the evening supper.

"He's freezing." Xiao Wang, who followed closely, said.

"It's okay to have heating in our dormitory." Xiaobai looked at me suspiciously and went to the Internet.

"Xiao Wang, how do you know I'm frozen?" I asked.

Xiao Wang glanced at Xiao Bai, who was concentrating on playing the game, and then said, "If you have eyes, you can see it." ”

"I don't know what's going on these days, I've been feeling cold, and taking medicine doesn't work."

"On the first night I came to our dormitory, you crossed Matcha Lake halfway back to your dormitory."

"Ahh

"You must be still close to the lake."

"Yes, but does it matter?"

"It's a big deal, and I felt something was wrong when you came back that night. I told my grandfather about your performance, and he said, "You're 100% a ghost." ”

"What?! Xiao Wang, I know you love God, but you also ......"

"I'm afraid you won't believe it, so I put it off until now to tell you."

"I haven't done anything out of the ordinary, why did I hit a ghost?"

"The ghost doesn't reason with you, it freezes to death, and after death, he wants to find a warm place to live, he is getting warmer and warmer, but you are getting colder and colder. Alas, you're also not very lucky. ”

"That'...... Can you save me? "I don't believe in ghosts, but I'm scared.

"Since I told you, there is a way."

At noon the next day, waiting for Xiao Bai and Xiao Zhao to go to the cafeteria for lunch, Xiao Wang took out a kitchen knife.

"The noon yang is heavy, the knife is a pig-killing knife that has been used for ten years, and the evil spirit is heavy, come, I will exorcise ghosts for you."

After Xiao Wang finished speaking, he slashed and insulted my shadow for a while: "I x your ancestor, dare to harm my brother!" You're xx!xx!nYour mother is x, your father is x! The whole family is x, and you won't let people live in peace when you die! ”

He was waving his arms wildly, and several times I thought he was going to slash at me.

I just saw that he, who has always been elegant, actually has such a side. After a while, I didn't change.

"Xiao Wang, I still feel cold."

"It seems that it is too warm and comfortable on you, and he doesn't want to leave."

"Is it possible for him to leave as long as I'm cold?"

"It's going to be so cold that it can't stand it first, but you're still alive."

"I have a way!"

……

In the evening, I took a towel into the bathroom, poured myself through the curtain without turning on the heat, then took a deep breath and slammed the water valve shut.

"Ahh Other...... Don't turn off the water valve...... "I heard a voice coming from within my body.

"Are you leaving?"

It is silent.

"You forced me!"

I doused myself again, then slammed the water valve shut, and poured it through, and closed it again, and so on.

"Don't turn off the water valve!" There was a palpable tremor in its voice.

I roared, "Get out!"

"It's so cold!!"

With a desperate roar, a puff of green smoke flew out of my body, and I finally warmed up.
