Chapter XXVI: Black and White Photographs
The small bungalow where Zixuan's family lives is very short, so let's put it this way, I have to bend over when I go in at 1.7 meters, and I don't know how her house was designed in the first place.
Of course, although I was curious, I didn't ask, after all, this is someone's family matter.
The room was not big, and the light inside was not very good, and it took me a while to see what the room looked like:
There was only one room, a small size, and there was nothing but an old table, a few small horses, and some miscellaneous things.
On the other side of the north wall, there are two beds, and there is a person lying on them, thinking that it should be Zixuan's parents.
The table was placed against the wall, and there was a white candle on the left and right, and some fruit was placed in front of the candle, and as for the light of the house, it was all provided by these two candles.
It seems that Zixuan's family is really poor, and there is no electric light, thinking so in my heart, I slowly walked to the candle, intending to take one to illuminate it and go to say hello to Zixuan's parents.
Unexpectedly, the moment I walked to the table, my heart tightened, and my scalp was even more numb: in the center of the candle, there was a black and white photo!
I said, why is it a candle and a fruit, dare to love this is an offering table?
In the middle of the night, I suddenly saw an offering table and said that I was not afraid that it was fake.
Completely subconsciously, by the light of the candle, I looked at the black and white photo, and the whole person was stunned on the spot, a pair of eyes were even more round, and even my breathing was disordered:
In the photo, it is a young girl in the flower season, who looks sixteen or seventeen years old, with a ponytail, big eyes, and a smile on the corner of her mouth, as if she is smiling at me.
This...... Is this purple pupil?
Although the girl in the photo looks very young, whether it is her demeanor or the outline of the lines on her face, this girl is obviously purple pupils, I will never be mistaken!
Looking directly at the photo in front of me, I was completely confused, my heartbeat accelerated in vain, and the blood in my body seemed to become cold and penetrating at this time.
However, what puzzled me was, why is the photo of the purple pupil here? Why did it appear at Zixuan's house?
Could it be that this girl just looks like Purple Pupil? Impossible, people may look alike, but the demeanor is absolutely impossible, the girl in the photo is absolutely the same as the purple pupils, whether it is her demeanor or eyes.
"This is my sister's photo", seeing me looking at the photo in a daze, Zixuan walked over and said in a somewhat sad tone: "My sister left seven years ago." ”
I turned my head dumbly, still unable to believe my eyes, "How did she die?" ”
"My sister died in a fire, my parents were paralyzed behind the bed, in fact, my sister has always taken me to support the family, one day seven years ago, because my sister was too tired from work, I forgot to turn off the gas when I came home to cook noodles for my parents, so it caused a fire."
"My family is very poor, after my sister carried her parents out, in order to make a living in the future, I had to go back to the fire to find a passbook, and this time, my sister never came back", when she said this, Zixuan's eyes were completely red.
My heart is even more uncomfortable, no wonder Zixuan is also surnamed Zi, dare to love Zitong's sister, so isn't she my sister-in-law?
Looking at Zixuan who had begun to sobble in front of me, I wanted to tell her about myself and Zitong, but when the words came to my lips, I stopped them again:
Because, I always feel that something seems to be wrong, first of all, since Zitong is from Zibo, why is he buried with us, the two places are thousands of kilometers apart, this is completely illogical?
Secondly, according to grandpa, Zi Tong and the tombs next to him must be more than a hundred years old, but Zi Xuan said that Zi Tong has only been dead for seven years, how is this possible?
If Zixuan's statement is true, when my grandfather took me to get married, those women in the Republic of China were afraid that the dead old lady would not dare to marry me, but Zitong chose to marry me, and after Zitong married, the old lady obviously didn't dare to come to me.
I don't think a person who has been dead for only seven years can have such a deterrent effect.
So, after thinking about it, there is only one conclusion, that is, Zixuan lied!
I tilted my head and looked at Zixuan, I really couldn't figure out why she was lying to me, what was her purpose in doing this?
However, one thing is certain, that is, there must be something wrong with this Zixuan, and the fact that she knows about Zi Tong and knows Zi Tong's appearance is enough to prove it.
Thinking of this, I don't dare to stay here anymore, there are simply too many weird things that have happened around me recently, I must not be careless anymore, if I am not careful, my little life may be given away like this.
I didn't bother to say hello to Zixuan's parents, and after a few polite words with Zixuan, I immediately exited the house, and then ran wildly in the direction of the taxi.
Thankfully, the taxi was still waiting for me, and when I opened the door, I jumped on it and urged the driver to hurry up.
The driver was also happy, and as soon as he stepped on the accelerator, the car ran out.
Looking at the lonely little house farther and farther behind me, I didn't realize that my forehead was covered with beads of sweat until now.
Touching the cold sweat on my forehead, I breathed a long sigh of relief, and the whole person collapsed on the saddle.
The first time I went up to the mountain to worship the Buddha, I met Zixuan halfway, and then saw the fire dragon soaring into the sky;
The second time, at the night club, I didn't think there was anything wrong at first, but now that I think about it, it seems that the young lady who accompanied the fat man was not familiar with Zixuan, and there was not even a communication between the two, but Zixuan said that she had been in the night club for many years;
The last time, the one that was in the hotel just now, although there was nothing unusual overall, was it a bit too coincidental? She was forced by the driver to stay in the same hotel as me, and she stayed upstairs with me?
The three acquaintances with Zixuan seem to be no problem on the whole, but if you think about it, it seems to be full of too many coincidences, and even now I have a bold idea:
All of this, could it be that Zixuan deliberately approached me?
The more I think about this idea, the more likely it becomes, so that I don't dare to think about it later, and I always feel a chill in my back, after all, just from the fact that Zixuan knows the existence of Zi Tong, Zi Xuan is definitely not a good stubble.
Looking at me through the rearview mirror, probably feeling that my face was not very good, the driver suddenly smiled at this time and said:
"I said buddy, you are really bold, come to the crematorium at night, I have been running for so many years, and it is the first time I have encountered you in this situation."
"What crematorium?" The driver's words pulled me back from thinking and couldn't help but ask.
"Damn, buddy, don't tease me, don't say you don't know that the place you went to is a crematorium", the driver chuckled and continued to tease me.
"What do you say? That place is a crematorium? "I felt like I was going to break down, so much so that my voice was a little out of tune.
"Dude, don't scare me, you really don't know?" The driver looked back at me with fear written in his eyes, "Then what are you doing at the crematorium?" ”
"I'm here to send that girl, the girl who was with me."
"I'm grass, buddy, are you drugged? Don't scare me in the middle of the night, what kind of girl is you, isn't it always you? The driver simply stopped the car and stared at me intently.
I'm really about to cry, Zixuan's big one will he not be able to see?
"No girl, how do you know where I'm going?"
The driver stared at me for a long time, and seemed to have completely regarded me as a psychopath, looking like a great enemy, "Are you sick?" You told me where it was, right? I don't want to go, you're adding money and saying nice things, don't say you don't remember now. ”
Instead of answering, I covered my head and slapped my face hard.
I have to calm down, I have to calm down anyway, this matter is getting more and more chaotic, I am completely confused, and now, I even suspect that this driver is lying to me.
I couldn't believe anyone, let alone my ears, even my eyes.
Jingle bells!
Just then, my phone rang suddenly.
In this quiet night, the bell seemed so eerie and so terrifying.
I was so frightened that I quickly turned on my phone, and the caller ID was an unfamiliar number.
I hesitated for a moment, but then I answered the phone, and soon a man's low, slightly indifferent voice came from the phone:
"Get out of the car, right away!"
