The prosperity of all strange things is mostly in the yin and selfishness and people cannot see it. At the beginning, things change, the second time the environment changes, the people who follow change, and the end the sky changes.

……

Heaven and earth accumulate yin, the earth qi changes and the yin qi condenses, and gathers it into rain. Within three days, it is called Lin, and heaven and earth are handed over. Those who do not open for a month are misty, and when things are damaged, they are depressed, and they do not distinguish the sun and the moon, which is called the sky crying.

—From an anonymous manuscript

In the autumn of that year, it rained in the small town of Zhongzhou for more than a month.

At midnight, the water vapor wafts under the dim street lamps. In the duty room of the southern suburbs park, Jiang Lan reclined on the single bed in the back room, yawned boredly, closed her eyes and prepared to sleep.

Faintly, he heard some noise outside, and tilted his head to the side so that he could hear more clearly.

Boom Blah ......

The voice was trivial and rapid, as if it came from the security door outside.

Jiang Lan pulled a handful of quilts, and had the intention to ignore them, but the sound of zila and zi kept ringing, becoming clearer and clearer in the sound of the rain, which made him upset. In desperation, he had to pull on his shoes, rub his eyes and walk out.

When I opened the door, a small black dog was shivering in the night rain.

Seeing someone open the door, the little black dog sat on the ground obediently, his little tail wagging desperately, raising his head to reveal a pitiful appearance, and his mouth made a flattering whining.

Jiang Lan was slightly stunned, poked her head out to take a look, and didn't see anyone following, so she squatted down and rubbed the little black dog's head, and asked softly, "What's wrong?" Lost? ”

"Woo ......"

"Forget it! Look at you so pathetic, come in! ”

The little black dog stood up and staggered into the house, its dirty little paws leaving a trail on the floor.

"Oops, I'll go! How do you ......"

Before he finished his sentence, the little black dog was excited, and sat on the ground again, and put on a pitiful and obedient look, and his little tail shook the muddy water everywhere.

This time, Jiang Lan couldn't get out of her temper, so she had to take a hot bath for the little black dog, feed it some food, and mop the ground again, and then lay down on the bed.

This night, she slept very sweetly, so sweet that Jiang Lan involuntarily dreamed that she was taking a hot spring. It's just that for some reason, the warm spring water suddenly didn't reach my waist.

Jiang Lan was stunned, woke up suddenly, reached out and touched the wet piece on the bed, and when she smelled it again, there was a strong smell of urine.

"Holy! Dogs! ”

Jiang Lan was furious, and her brain hurt.

The little black dog jumped out of bed and ran outside without looking back.

Jiang Lan sat up, stretched out her feet to pull on her shoes, but stepped on the cold ground, and after thinking about it, she became even more angry, and chased her barefoot.

The little black dog was squatting behind the security door outside, and when he saw Jiang Lan chasing after him, he curled up and chirped in a circle, like a child who had made a mistake and had nowhere to hide, fearful, uneasy, aggrieved, helpless, and a little resigned to fate.

Two shoes, one on the couch and one on the floor in front of the back room.

Jiang Lan grabbed the shoe on the floor and smashed it at the little black dog, smashing it on the little black dog's buttocks, causing it to scream.

Jiang Lan rushed to the little black dog in a few steps, raised his foot and kicked it fiercely, seeing that its small appearance was so miserable, after all, he was a little soft-hearted, his body kicked the air, scolded and put on his shoes, opened the security door and pointed outside and scolded: "Get out!" ”

The little black dog sat on the ground, wagging its tail and a pleading look in its eyes.

Jiang Lan didn't look over his head and didn't look at it.

In the early morning, a man and a dog confronted each other in front of the door of the duty room in the southern suburbs park, and Jiang Lan was defeated after all.

Because this little black dog is so spiritual, like an ignorant child. How can an adult be as knowledgeable as a child?

Since she couldn't see it in general, Jiang Lan had no choice but to go to prepare food for the little black dog in frustration. At the same time, he was also exaggerating himself: "How can I be like a dog? Could it be that it bit me, and I have to bite it back? It's a big deal, I'll just close the door to the back room. Hey...... Not right......"

That's not right. Before going to bed, Jiang Lan had already plugged in the door of the inner room. There is no need to confirm this at all, because it is a habit. Habit becomes nature.

Looking at the little black dog shaking his head next to his feet, Jiang Lan lost his mind for a moment, and then shivered involuntarily, feeling a little hairy in his heart.

What's going on? Didn't someone come last night? Or is it ...... Southern Suburbs Park, is it really as rumored to be, not peaceful?

The alarm clock rang, pulling Jiang Lan's chaotic thoughts back. He turned off the alarm clock, and suspiciously checked the inside and out, except for the map drawn by the little black dog on the futon, he didn't find anything abnormal, and then he was relieved: yes. Looks...... Did you forget to plug in the door...... It must be like this!

In a flash, it was half past seven. A fat man of more than 200 pounds held an umbrella and walked over leisurely, his mouth stuffed with hot buns. It was Jiang Lan's colleague, named Ma Bozhao.

While eating the buns, he greeted Jiang Lan inarticulately: "Fifth brother, I'll give it to you...... Buns, ...... quickly," he said, raising his hand and handing over a plastic bag.

Jiang Lan took the steamed bun with a disgusted face, and replied angrily: "It's so urgent to eat a bun!" No one is robbing you! I can't even say it! ”

The fat man didn't care when he heard it, grinning stupidly, that kind of thing was a little too much.

Jiang Lan had to turn around and sit down, silently finishing her breakfast. When he looked up, he didn't see the fat man, and suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly rushed to the inner room to look.

It's over, Ma Bozhao lay down on the bed on all fours. Seeing Jiang Lan come in, he twisted his ass with a comfortable expression on his face.

Jiang Lan stroked her forehead with her hand, her face full of black lines: "That...... Fatty, you get up first, I'll tell you something. ”

"What's the matter? You say. I can hear you. The fat man not only did not get up, but closed his eyes.

"You...... That's fine. You lie down. Jiang Lan turned around, came to the outer room, sat on the sofa and lit a cigarette.

Before the cigarette was finished, Ma Bozhao's angry shout sounded inside: "This Nima! What, what is this? ”

Jiang Lan took a cigarette in her mouth, came to the inner room again, squinted at the fat man on the bed, and chuckled and said, "Guess! ”

Ma Bozhao took out his hand under his buttocks, put it in front of his nose and sniffed it, then crawled up, looked at Jiang Lan, looked at the bed, and then looked at his hand, his face was full of shock, and he said in disbelief: "Fifth brother, are you wetting the bed?" ”

Jiang Lan was petrified and had an urge to beat people.

Before he could have a seizure, Ma Bozhao scratched his head and overturned his judgment: "That's not right." Growing up, I didn't hear you had this problem. ”

Jiang Lan raised her hand and motioned to give the fat man another chance.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Lan forgot that he still had a cigarette in his hand, and the fat man was mistaken, showing an expression of sudden realization, and then covered his mouth in surprise, glared at Jiang Lan and said, "Damn!" Where do you practice marksmanship? ”

After speaking, he glanced back at the bed again, and gave Jiang Lan a heartfelt thumbs up: "Fifth brother is mighty!" ”

Jiang Lan petrified again. After a few moments, he jerked up the mop against the wall and was about to fight.

Ma Bozhao hugged his head, and deliberately shook his thick waist at Jiang Lan, describing him as obscene and underbeaten.

Jiang Lan had no choice but to put down the mop, pointed to the outside room angrily and said, "That dog did it!" ”

The fat man also knew that his joke was a little too much, so he hurriedly got off the donkey and walked outside with a smile: "I'll just say it!" This is definitely not the fifth brother's doing! I said, "Where's the dog?" ”

The little black dog is gone. No one noticed when it disappeared.

Facing the fat man's suspicious eyes, Jiang Lan simply didn't explain. He thought: It's better to go. If you're gone, you won't bother me again.

The rain still doesn't stop. For a whole day, the southern suburbs park failed to welcome a single visitor. But this is also good, Jiang Lan has enough time to clean the bed, and also has enough time to dry the cover little by little with a brazier.

Anyway, it's just to pass the time.

As for the fat man, obviously, he is a foodie. For foodies, the best way to pass the time is to eat, eat a variety of snacks.

In addition to being a foodie, he also has a hidden attribute that is chatter. Even if Jiang Lan didn't have a stubble, he could talk to Jiang Lan happily for a day.

"Fifth brother, have you heard about the murder case a few days ago?"

"Hmm."

"I'll go! I heard that it was a throat cut! Killed with a single sword, and a large patch of blood flowed. Scared the sweeping aunt to tears! ”

"Hmm."

"Do you know what a master is? That's the master! came and went without a trace, and the surveillance camera didn't even capture a ghost! ”

"Cut! Do you know this? Public Security Bureau: Is it open at your house? Jiang Lan scolded the fat man unhurriedly.

The fat man was speechless for a while, scratched his head, and was a little embarrassed: "Rumors! Aren't these all rumors! ”

"Do you believe it if you know it's a rumor? Aren't there still rumors that the southern suburbs park is not clean? Why didn't I see it? ”

Hearing Jiang Lan's question, Ma Bozhao suddenly came to his senses: "Hey...... Listen to others, there is really a problem in the southern suburbs park! ”

"Oh?"

"You know the topography of the Southern Suburbs Park, right? Do you know what this is called in Feng Shui? It's called gathering yin ......"

Nanjiao Park is a green park built around the lake, bordering Xiashui in the north and Lingshan Mountain in the south. The strange thing is that the summer water is not connected with the lake in the park, and there is a gentle slope of more than 200 meters in the middle, and the duty room of the southern suburbs park is on this gentle slope, sitting north and facing south, facing the lake.

According to what the fat man heard from nowhere, the water was originally yin, such a big pool of stagnant water, and it was in the north of the mountains and the south of the water, it was difficult to think of it.

In order to increase credibility, Ma Bozhao stretched out his hand and pointed to the surface of the lake, and said in a matter-of-fact manner: "See? In this lake, two years ago, children were seen bathing, several! It's gone in the blink of an eye! A lot of people have seen it! Do you think it's weird? ”

"Cut! It's the same as the truth! Jiang Lan waved her hand, and her lukewarm tone made Ma Bozhao a little angry.

Ma Bozhao didn't know that the reason why Jiang Lan waved his hand was because he was not calm.

Just a few days ago, he had seen with his own eyes what the fat man had said.
