Chapter 378: Once Upon a Time

What Zhu Liu said about mine is also a problem with my relationship, I pondered for a while, and replied directly: "Don't worry, I think they are safe." ”

"Why do you think they're safe?" Having seen last night's events with my own eyes, Zhu Liu frowned, and was skeptical of my statement, I shrugged: "Actually, I'm not sure, but I haven't felt the aura of threat yet, and I always feel that they are not in danger for the time being." ”

Zhu Liu heard my unreliable answer, and hesitated: "But ......"

"Nothing, trust my instincts." I interrupted her, "Besides, whether or not they're in trouble now, we still need to find them now, don't we?" Looking at my determined gaze, Zhu Liu nodded lightly: "You're right, so what should we do now?" ”

I stood up, directly stuffed the clothes scattered on the bedside into the bag quickly, and then went to the bathroom, packed my toiletries, the whole process took less than two minutes, out of the bathroom, I found that Zhu Liu was still stunned, watching my series of actions, she was dumbfounded, I threw the bag back on my back, and pushed Zhu Liu towards the door: "Hurry up and pack up your things, we are going to check out to find the bearded them." ”

Only then did Zhu Liu react to my intentions, and nodded again and again: "I'll be fine right away, you can wait for me here for a while." "Okay, then you hurry up." After repeatedly explaining to Zhu Liu, I let her go, and while she was collecting her clothes, I lay back on the bed, I estimated that I would have to wait for a long time.

No wonder I confessed this, because Zhu Liu's stinky fox had so many things to pack, and I suspected that she was struggling with which clothes, makeup, and high heels to put in her little bag. I collapsed on the bed bored, raised my hand and looked at my watch, the watch showed that the time had passed fifteen minutes, but Zhu Liu had not yet appeared, I rolled impatiently, ready to turn over and sit up, and go out to urge Zhu Liu, at this time, there was a soft sound from the door, "creak", it seemed that someone pushed the door open. Finally packed up!

I turned over and sat up in surprise, and complained to the person: "You finally cleaned up, the flowers I waited for ......" The second half of the sentence was swallowed into my throat, looking at the person standing at the door, it was the little girl who came to look for the ball last time, I was stunned, how could she come, could it be that she went wrong again, pursed her lips, remembering how nervous she was last time, I tried to squeeze out a smile, and asked as kindly as possible: "Little sister, what are you doing here?" Are you in the wrong place? ”

I thought I was already very kind, but the little girl did not respond to me, but looked at me with a cold face, looking at her like this, I suddenly felt a little awkward atmosphere, and the air was strangely silent.

Just when I thought I was going to be in a stalemate, the little girl suddenly spoke, but as soon as she said something amazing: "The person you are looking for is in the underworld." I was stunned, then laughed, "What are you talking about?" I do not quite understand. ”

The little girl may have thought of everything, but she did not expect me to answer her like this, she frowned, froze by the door, and did not speak for a while.

Then before the little girl could react, she walked directly to the door, bent down and said to her with a smile: "Go quickly, your parents are still waiting for you?" ”

The little girl looked up at me with a hard look, and after a long time she slowly spoke, "Believe it or not, there is only so much I can tell you." After saying this, she added: "I have no ill intentions, I just want to help you." With that, she turned and prepared to leave.

"Wait." Seeing that she was about to leave, I quickly opened my mouth to stop her, and I could see that she really had no ill will towards me.

She seemed to have expected that I would stop her, and turned to look at me calmly, looking at her appearance, waiting for me to take the initiative to speak, I directly asked the question in my heart: "According to what you said, I didn't know each other before, and I am not related to you, why do you want to help me." Listening to my words, she showed a rare smile and explained, "Because you didn't expose me." ”

I continued to play dumb, looking confused: "What are you talking about? I don't understand. ”

She didn't mess with me, and said to me very simply: "You can see it a long time ago, and you already know that this body does not belong to me." "I don't know what you're talking about?" I looked away, the road was difficult, how many people were in the dark, and I didn't dare to reveal my identity easily.

She frowned and sighed: "Okay, since you don't want to admit it, I can't help it, but the ghost mother won't fail to recognize it, you saw me and didn't reveal my identity, I'm grateful, and there is nothing to repay you, so I can only give you this one piece of information." ”

Well, since her words are so straightforward, there's no point in hiding them anymore. I turned around and sat on the bed and said lightly, "I didn't expose you not because I had a good heart, but because I didn't want to cause trouble for myself." I pondered for a while and added, "And since it is a ghost who came to the world in the middle of July, there must be some wish that has not been fulfilled, and the king of Hades has not called you back, so I am in a hurry." ”

After listening to my words, she looked up at me and smiled: "You are really sincere, no matter what, I will tell you everything I can tell you, and it is up to you what to do." I thought she was leaving, but she suddenly came up to me: "Since you recognize me as a ghost, can you listen to my story and judge me?" She looked at me with an earnest face, her eyes were hot, her eyes were firm, but I unconsciously looked away, I used to like to listen to other people's stories, but after listening too much, I began to understand that knowing too many secrets also has a price, I can't solve problems for everyone, and knowing too many heavy stories will overwhelm me.

So I shook my head decisively and refused: "I'm sorry, you know, my friends are gone, and I need to find them right away." ”

"I told you that they were in the underworld, what difference does it make if you go earlier and later, anyway, I see that the ghosts that took them away didn't hurt them."

Her words were reasonable, and I couldn't find a good reason to refute her for a while, but suddenly I thought of Zhu Liu, and I smiled at her: "I'm sorry, my friend is waiting for me." Mine went to her. With that, I got up and walked straight to the door, and at the same time I breathed a long sigh of relief in my heart, and finally got rid of her.

Who knows, as soon as I took two steps, the person behind me said faintly: "Are you talking about that little fox?" She's been so frightened by me that she won't wake up for a while. ”

I was dumbfounded, feeling that all this was a trap set by her, and I turned to look at her angrily: "What the hell do you want?" ”

There was not the slightest fear on her face, and there was a mature expression on the child's face that did not belong to her age, and she looked straight at me and insisted to me, "After you listen to my story, I will let her go." "I hate it when people threaten me, don't think I can't bring her to her senses, you're underestimating me." With a sneer, I walked straight to the door.

Her face was rarely panicked, and she immediately chased after her, grabbed my sleeve, I looked down at her impatiently, frowned, couldn't help but didn't speak, but raised her hand directly to get rid of her, she saw me raise her hand, immediately grabbed me, looked up at me in a panic, and said eagerly: "I can tell you the entrance to the underworld, and I can also tell you how to get there, as long as you listen to a story, isn't it very cost-effective?" I was silent for a while, puzzled and asked, "Why me?" Why are you so obsessed with telling this story? Hearing my words, her eyes were a little gloomy, and she whispered: "Because no one can hear my story anymore, I am a cursed person, and for so long, probably only I can remember that incident, so I need someone to listen to me, I need to confide." ”

Looking at her longing gaze, I pondered for a while, and finally nodded: "I'll only give you half an hour, and after half an hour, whether your story is finished or not, my friend and I must leave, and don't try to beg me to do anything for you, I won't care." "It's not just because of sympathy, a story in exchange for a way to enter the underworld, which saves me a lot of trouble, it's just half an hour, so let's listen to it.

Hearing my words, a trace of joy flashed in her eyes, and she said again and again: "Half an hour is enough, besides, this is my own business, don't worry, I won't trouble you." I nodded, brushed her hand off my sleeve, sat down in the chair, pointed to the chair opposite, and said, "Sit down and talk." She came straight up and sat down in her chair, and she looked like a lovely little girl, but only I could see that there lived a soul in it that was not in keeping with her age, the soul of a young woman, and that soul sat down in front of me with the help of this suit, and began to tell me her story with eagerness.

I dropped a cup of tea for myself and the woman opposite, as soon as the tea was poured into the cup from the kettle, the heat was thick, and the rising white air blurred my vision, I picked up the cup and covered my palm, the stories of the dead are not always so wonderful, I just hope that the stories I want to listen to next will not make me feel particularly cold.
