In this way, Fang Rui followed Mr. Li on the road of condolences, the first stop was Lu Ming's home, for a family that lost its only beloved son, the pain was huge, Lu Ming's parents were gray and aged a lot overnight. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 The more than 10,000 yuan raised by the school may be a huge amount of money for a poor family before Lu Ming died, but now, even if his parents took the money handed over by Mr. Li, their eyes were blank and joyless, and they would rather not have this money than hope that their son could live a good life. It was the first time for Fang Rui to face the bereaved people like this, which made him feel a little embarrassed, and he didn't know how to comfort them, even if the things and money sent couldn't make up for their pain. In the end, Fang Rui left the Lu family with Teacher Li without saying a word, and Teacher Li didn't seem to be willing to stay for a long time, this was a lifeless family, and the pale words of comfort could only make both parties feel painful.

The second home is Wang Xiaozhan's home, after all, this child only choked a few mouthfuls of water and was still alive after being frightened, so both Teacher Li and Fang Rui were in a happier mood along the way. Teacher Li also gave Fang Rui a brief description of Wang Xiaozhan's family, Wang Xiaozhan's mother died of illness when he was a baby, but he also has a sister who has always spoiled him, and he is simply the second mother.

When they arrived at Wang's house, they were received by Wang Xiaozhan's father and sister, and Wang Xiaozhan went to his grandmother's house. Wang Xiaozhan's father, Wang Meng, is a simple and simple farmer, who burst into tears of gratitude after receiving the school's donation, and has been bowing to Mr. Li and Fang Rui to express his gratitude. When Mr. Li and Wang Meng were talking, Fang Rui noticed Wang Xiaozhan's sister Wang Xiaohe, an eighteen-year-old girl with a very delicate appearance, long black hair tied in a braided back of her head, and a simple floral shirt on her body is unique and beautiful. However, what attracted Fang Rui's attention was not Wang Xiaohe's appearance, but her expression, a trace of guilt flashed on her face when she saw Wang Meng accept the donation, yes, Fang Rui felt that he was definitely not mistaken, it was a guilty expression. Especially when she heard that Teacher Li and Fang Rui went to Lu Ming's house first, there was still a trace of fear in her eyes. What is she afraid of? Fang Rui didn't understand why Wang Xiaohe behaved like this, the money was donated by the school's teachers and students, why did everyone's intentions make her feel guilty? What's even more strange is why did she feel scared after hearing Lu Ming's name? What could a dead boy fear her? During the conversation between Mr. Li and Wang Meng, Wang Xiaohe kept his eyes dodging and even fidgeting. Fang Rui had been secretly observing her, and Wang Xiaohe's performance made him always feel as if he had caught something. Unfortunately, Mr. Li quickly ended the conversation with Wang Meng and got up to leave.

"Ahh I can help make up for the homework that Wang Xiaozhan has pulled down recently. Seeing that Teacher Li was about to leave, Fang Rui, who still wanted to stay, finally thought of a reason.

"This... This is too troublesome Teacher Bai! Wang Meng grabbed his clothes embarrassedly.

"That's a good idea, anyway, the school has been closed for the past two days." Teacher Li appreciated Fang Rui's idea, and continued, "Teacher Bai can tutor for an hour or two every day, very quickly." ”

"yes, it didn't take much time." Fang Rui hurriedly picked it up.

"This... Thank you so much, Mr. Bai. It was Wang Xiaohe who agreed, and it seemed that Mr. Li was right when she looked happy, this is a sister who dotes on her brother very much.

"Then if you don't Xiaohe, you go and pick up Xiaozhan from grandma's house, and don't let Teacher Bai wait." Wang Meng immediately reminded Wang Xiaohe that he didn't expect his son to be able to enjoy a separate tutor treatment, which made Wang Meng very grateful.

Then Wang Xiaohe quickly took Wang Xiaozhan back from his grandmother's house to accept Fang Rui's tutoring, Wang Xiaozhan is only an eight-year-old child after all, and the thing that almost drowned last time seems to have long been forgotten, and now he feels very happy to be able to recuperate at home without going to school, and he is still a little unhappy with Fang Rui who came to the door to let him study, but in Wang Xiaohe's blaming eyes, he immediately obediently took out the book to class, it seems that Wang Xiaozhan is unconditionally obedient to his sister.

In order not to expose his intentions too much, Fang Rui chose to make up the class for the first time, and did not test the sisters and brothers too much, but conscientiously completed the duties of tutoring. After the end, in order to express his gratitude, Wang Xiaohe proposed to send Fang Rui to the station, along the way Wang Xiaohe expressed great gratitude, and nagged a few words of naughty complaints about his younger brother, hoping that he would go back to school soon, but his father Wang Meng was extremely fond of his younger brother, a male brother who had been passed down for three generations, and said that he would let Wang Xiaozhan rest at home for a while longer. Fang Rui listened with a smile, and finally said: "Don't worry, I will come a few more times until Wang Xiaozhan goes back to school." ”

"Thank you, thank you so much! I really didn't expect Xiao Zhan to meet a responsible teacher like you. Wang Xiaohe once again expressed her gratitude, and almost bowed to Fang Rui a few more times in the street.

"No thanks, I also want to follow Principal Xu's last wish and care more about students." Fang Rui was a little embarrassed by gratitude, and he couldn't tell his true intentions, so he could only use Principal Xu as an excuse.

"Remained... Wishes? Wang Xiaohe was stunned for a moment, and his face turned white in an instant.

"Oh, you probably don't know it, there was a fire in Principal Xu's house last night, and he and his grandmother both unfortunately passed away." Fang Rui explained.

"Death... He's dead?! When Wang Xiaohe heard the news, his whole body trembled, and he shook a few times and almost fell on the spot.

Principal Xu and his grandmother died, why was Wang Xiaohe so scared? If you respect Principal Xu's personality, you will at most express regret and sadness for his death, Wang Xiaohe's reaction is so abnormal that it is even more shocking and sad than his dead father.

"What's wrong with you?" Fang Rui couldn't help but ask.

"Oh... I.... I was so shocked. Wang Xiaohe lowered his head to avoid Fang Rui's questioning gaze, "The station is in front, I won't send it." ”

After speaking, Wang Xiaohe turned around and ran in the direction of home and threw down Fang Rui directly, looking at her back, Fang Rui felt the need to call Bai Jingjing.

After trying several times, Bai Jingjing's mobile phone was not in the service area and could not be connected, and Fang Rui, who was a little worried, had no choice but to take the bus back to the school first. Because classes have been suspended for the past few days, it can be said that Bai Jingjing is not there, but if Bai Jingjing is still absent after class, how can he ask for leave? Sighing, Fang Rui decided to go back to the dormitory building first, and as soon as he stepped into the dormitory building, Mr. Li came over to inform him that he needed to attend Principal Xu's funeral tomorrow, and the location was at the funeral home in the county seat. Because Fang Rui is a newcomer, Teacher Li specially came over to ask him to go over early tomorrow morning with several other dormitory staff. After the explanation, Mr. Li asked a few more words about Wang Xiaozhan's make-up class, Fang Rui recounted Wang Xiaozhan's situation, and then pretended to talk about Wang Xiaohe unintentionally, Teacher Li sighed after listening to it and said: "Xiaohe used to be a student of our school, I thought her homework was very good back then, and we also expected her to be admitted to high school and even a good university in the future, but I didn't expect this child to give up the opportunity to go to high school in order to take care of his family, and became a nurse in the county health station." Her father Wang Meng looks loyal and honest, but in fact, he is a lazy man who eats and is lazy, and he usually doesn't go to work much, and the family relies on Wang Xiaohe to feed him. Fortunately, although her younger brother Wang Xiaozhan is a little naughty, he is still very good in his studies, and Wang Xiaohe has always hoped that he can study hard and be admitted to university in the future. ”

It turned out that Wang Xiaohe was also a student of this school, so she must know Principal Xu, but this didn't seem to explain her horror and sadness when she heard the news of Principal Xu's death.

Fang Rui, who returned to the dormitory, had to wash up hastily and lay on the bed, anyway, there was nothing to do at night, Fang Rui simply began to use his mobile phone to check the information of Heishui County, the name of this small county town Heishui originated from a black spring in a mountain cave on the outskirts of the county. Legend has it that in the middle and late Qing Dynasty and before the Yongzheng year, the water from this spring was black, but after a major epidemic, there were countless deaths and injuries around Heishui County, and this black spring disappeared at the same time. Later, this area belonged to the puppet state of Manchukuo, and was once heavily garrisoned by Japanese troops, but it seemed to have been abandoned after a year. Until now, Heishui County is just an ordinary remote county.

After watching the news on the Internet for a while, Fang Rui fell asleep, in his sleep, Fang Rui always felt very cold, as if there was a strong mountain wind blowing on his body, in front of him was a dark sky, under a blue and somewhat blackened mountain, a large group of people and horses were winding up, but unfortunately the wind blew Fang Rui's eyes wide, and his body seemed to be hanging far away in the air, and he couldn't see the appearance of that team of people and horses. Fang Rui, who was shivering from the cold, felt that his body was being torn by the mountain wind, and he spun down in the air, and the feeling of falling rapidly made Fang Rui's whole person shock, and then Fang Rui woke up in a big gasp, it turned out that everything just now was just a dream?

Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, Fang Rui struggled to get up from the bed and poured a few mouthfuls of water, the cold water temperature stimulated his stomach and slowly calmed him down. It's just that the feeling of falling just now was too real, and Fang Rui didn't feel sleepy for a while. In the cold night, Fang Rui suddenly smelled something burning at this time, and Fang Rui, who was worried about where the fire was starting, immediately pushed the door and walked out of the dormitory. The faint light of the fire came through the end of the corridor, and Fang Rui walked over quickly and saw Uncle Qin squatting in the public bathroom, with a basin in front of him, which was burning paper money, and a small pile of tin foil ingots that had already been stacked next to the basin.

Uncle Qin didn't notice Fang Rui, but concentrated on burning the paper money, and kept muttering in his mouth: "He is finally dead, you can go with peace of mind!" ”

Fang Rui didn't dare to step forward again, but hid around the corner and peeked, in the jumping firelight, there was smoke, and gradually a pair of feet slowly appeared, and then looked up at the man in the pink shirt, his face was still pale, and there were drops of water falling from his hair, just dripping in the brazier, and the flames were suddenly triggered. Uncle Qin didn't care, his expression was still the same, obviously, Uncle Qin couldn't see this man! But Fang Rui saw it clearly, and what made him even more frightened was that the man in the pink shirt actually slowly turned his head to look at Fang Rui, his originally smooth forehead began to crack and a large amount of blood flowed out, and the muscles on his face were shrinking at a speed that was visible to the naked eye, and in a moment, he turned into a black skeleton. Its big mouth bit at Fang Rui with one mouth, causing Fang Rui to take a few steps back in fright, and he accidentally fell to the ground.

"Ouch!" Fang Rui, who was in pain, screamed, he didn't have time to dodge, he closed his eyes, thinking that he would definitely be bitten by the black skeleton, but he didn't expect that after waiting for a while, there was no movement, and it was Uncle Qin who opened his eyes and stood in front of Fang Rui.

"White... Teacher Bai, why are you here? "Uncle Qin didn't expect that there would be people coming to the bathroom in the middle of the night.

"Uh... I smelled the smell of burning things and came out to see, who are you burning paper money for? Fang Rui saw that the black skeleton had disappeared, so he asked boldly.

"I... One of mine... A friend. Uncle Qin was a little unnatural, and immediately turned around and put all the paper money on the ground into the brazier, hoping to leave here as soon as possible.

Fang Rui stood up and looked around, and after making sure that the black skeleton just now was really gone, he walked to Uncle Qin's side and squatted down, throwing in the last few tin foil ingots that he hadn't had time to throw into the brazier.

"You... You don't have to help. Uncle Qin turned his head to Fang Ruidao, the expression on his face was a little lonely and a little sad under the firelight.

"He... Does he like to wear pink shirts? Fang Rui could see that the black skeleton didn't want to hurt Uncle Qin, perhaps, Uncle Qin knew something, so he tested it.

Sure enough, Uncle Qin's surprised hands stopped when he heard what Fang Rui said, and he was almost burned by the flames, Fang Rui felt that some elderly people in remote places were very superstitious, so he immediately struck while the iron was hot and said, "Uncle Qin, do you believe that people have yin and yang eyes?" ”

Uncle Qin didn't speak, but grabbed Fang Rui's arm and said, "Can you see him, can you really see him?" ”

Fang Rui's arm hurt a little when he was pinched by Uncle Qin, but he didn't expect Uncle Qin, who seemed to be old and weak, to be so excited, so brute force, and nodded hurriedly.

"Too... That's great. Uncle Qin lowered his head and began to sobb slightly, and when he looked up again, his face was covered with tears, and he choked up, "Can you tell him that that person is dead, let him leave here and go where he should go, it's been more than thirty years, and he should let go." ”

"This... What the hell is going on? And who is that person? Fang Rui asked.
