Chapter 9: Encounter I
There are many things in the world that cannot be explained, because your experience is not necessarily his, and you may not believe his experience, so there is no standard answer.
Although it is not clear, it has indeed happened, in fact, this is normal, after all, the world is so big, anyone can encounter strange things.
Xiao Min and I are close friends who talk about everything, and our relationship is so strong that we dare to say curses to me. Because we have similar temperaments and similar hobbies, we both like to talk about weird things.
Once, when the two of us came out of the movie theater to talk about the horror movie we had just watched, Xiao Min's tone suddenly became serious.
"What's wrong? Are you scared? It's really gloomy to talk about these all the time, so let's change the topic! ”
I think it's strange to look at Xiao Min with a solemn face, she is usually unrestrained and relaxed when she talks about this, and she has never had such a shocked and confused expression as now.
"I'm not scared, I'm remembering."
"Which thing? Oh, you mean, the woman in the pit?! ”
Suddenly, it dawned on me that a woman's figure appeared. No, no, what the hell is she......
As his thoughts flowed, Xiao Min slowly spoke.
"I did think about her, maybe there were some scenes in the movie that touched my heart, so I remembered the events of that summer."
That summer, Xiao Min was eight years old, and she was still a little girl running around in a red dress.
Xiao Min loves to play, and her grandmother's house happens to be in the countryside, and the place is spacious and there are many children, so on the first day of the summer vacation, she clamored to go to the countryside to play.
Xiaomin's parents were reluctant to send her because she had just diarrhea and her body was still relatively weak. However, she couldn't stand Xiaomin's stubborn grinding and crying, so she could only send her to her grandmother's house.
On the day she returned to her grandmother's house, Xiao Min was playing with a bunch of children. Country children are not polite and cold like city children, they are warm and simple, and treat Xiaomin like their own brothers and sisters.
Xiao Min was also very happy, she followed them up the tree to pick fruits, went down to the river to fish, forgot the time to play, and saw her while playing.
She and Xiao Min met in an empty dirt pit that summer night. The pit was discovered by Min when she was playing hide and seek with everyone, and it was also proof that she was disoriented.
Although they are all in the pit, although they are all wearing red dresses, they appear in different ways. Xiao Min jumped into the pit playing hide and seek, and she suddenly appeared silently.
She stood in the pit, dressed in a red dress, motionless.
Xiao Min caught a glimpse of the red beside her, she looked at her in a red dress, and said tremblingly: "Sister, don't come here, I'm afraid ......"
The next night, Xiao Min finally woke up.
Seeing her granddaughter wake up, Xiaomin's grandmother was surprised and delighted, and she cried and prepared to take her granddaughter into her arms.
At this moment, Xiao Min blurted out, "Guixiang!" ”
With a sound of cinnamon, the startled old man trembled, and she kept asking Xiao Min what she said? When it was determined that those two words were "Guixiang", the old man's face was as white as paper.
Cinnamon incense, osmanthus fragrant, the name is beautiful, but people die early.
How can it not be shocking that the name of a dead man, a name that has been dead for so many years and that even the villagers have almost forgotten, was called out by a little girl who had just come from the city? Besides, there is no connection between them.
This kind of weirdness that shouldn't be there made everyone say "ah" in unison.
Maybe it was because Grandma's crying was too poignant, or maybe everyone's exclamations were too terrifying, in short, Xiao Min shuddered and came back to her senses.
"Grandma, why are you crying?"
Looking at her grandmother, whose tears were constantly falling, Xiao Min asked timidly.
"Min, you tell Grandma, how are you in that dirt pit? Also, How did you find out about Cinnamon Xiang? You, you ......"
When the old man asked all the questions with his fear, he was about to faint after crying. Looking at her grandmother, who kept panting, Xiao Min hurriedly told what happened.
After listening to Xiao Min's story, the old man was silent, and the look of disbelief on his face seemed to be frozen forever.
"Grandma, who is Sister Guixiang? Why did she cry when she saw me? It's so sad to cry, so sad. ”
After a long while, Xiao Min's innocent voice finally broke the suffocating silence.
"You said Guixiang saw you crying? Is she also wearing a red dress? She, she, alas......"
Looking at his granddaughter in a red dress, the old man muttered for a long time, but still said everything.
The place where Guixiang was born is called "Gui Village", Gui Village is full of osmanthus flowers, and every flower blooming season, the cluster of Gui is full of bloom, and the fragrance is fragrant.
Guixiang is a lively girl, as beautiful as osmanthus, but unfortunately fate is not good, she is a hard-working child. Her parents died when she was five years old, leaving only her sister Gui Fang, who was five years older than her.
Gui Fang is different from Gui Xiang, she is a soft-tempered, well-behaved and quiet girl, and the misfortune of the family makes her more weathered melancholy than girls of the same age.
Gui Fang loves her only sister very much, and under her careful care, Gui Xiang grows bigger and more beautiful.
Although life is hard, the sisters are happy and content.
Happiness is always fleeting, and when Guixiang was fifteen years old, misfortune struck again.
