(Zhao Huanshu continued to watch the fat man write several letters on letterhead)

……

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, and as the days went by, the novelty of our shared apartment disappeared, and the days gradually began to become dull and boring. What used to be exciting and pleasant now seems uneventful.

Brother Zhao, you used to say that I gave up halfway and didn't know how to persevere, and I laughed at you as if I were my mother...... Hehe, now I finally understand that this problem is so terrible! For example, if I had been able to study as hard as you did in high school, I would have been able to get into university.

Speaking of our lives, gradually, Yang He and I became more and more bored and empty, and later we found that even four people together are difficult to pass the time, when we are tired of playing poker, mahjong is tired, TV is tired of watching, and the latest VCD has begun to fall into ashes, finally something happened......

I remember that at that time, every day after dinner, the four of us would gather around the dining table with wide eyes and star, racking our brains to think of a so-called "new way to play".

That was the way it was, and I vividly remember that on Tuesday, September 15, 1998, we gathered around a messy table.

"Let's play with the pen fairy, right?"

I've forgotten which bad luck thing came up with it, but someone was there anyway? Said this.

In retrospect, it was a boring, even silly idea, but at the time we were eager to give it a try. To be precise, it was me and Yang He.

"Pen Fairy? How to play? "Yang He and I have heard of this thing, but we don't know the details, the two girls are timid and dare not play, and Yang He and I don't know how to play.

"I'd advise you not to play this, but play something else." Yang He's girlfriend, He Xueyi, was the first to express her objections.

"If you two play, you're going to be out of luck!" He Xueyi is a gentle and cheerful girl, so much so that her expression is always like a joke.

"Don't play with this inexplicable thing." Tang Rou frowned and said, "It's very evil." And I've heard it's true! ”

"Heard? Hehe, Xiaorou, it's your superstitious thoughts of the seven aunts and eight aunts again, right? I don't believe it. "Ever since I was a child, I shook my head and laughed, and the reason why I wanted to play Pen Fairy was simply because it was too boring and I thought it was a normal game.

Yang He also swore an oath, patting his chest with his strong body: "How can there be any pen fairy pen ghost?" I don't believe in it! The only person in this world who can believe is myself. ”

"That's right! That's right! I also took the opportunity to coax: "Ghost? Haha, there's a kind of one to show me now! ”

Tang Rou snorted coldly on the side, just now she and I had a quarrel over the trivial matter of whether to put soy sauce or bean paste in the meat in the pot, it seems that this girl has not lost her anger: "The ghost appeared?" The ghost is really going to appear, I see that you can't run, and you will pee the moment you see it. ”

"How do you know if you don't try? Besides, it's just playing. I spread my hands.

"Hmph, don't blame me for not making it clear to you, the pen fairy is an 'evil ghost'! If you really want to come out and come to you. "Tang Rou seems to want to scare me.

"Are there any bad consequences for the upper body?" Yang He asked.

"Of course there is, people who are ghosts will be very unlucky, and they have always been unlucky; And once you're on it, it's hard to leave. One of my classmates used to try it out and almost lost his life. He's the kind of guy who is very honest and never lies. That's all true! ”

I looked up to the sky and laughed, not believing Tang Rou's words at all: "Never lie? I'm afraid only the dead can do it, right? ”

Yang He nodded: "I don't believe it either, you might as well give it a try, it's idle anyway." ”

Little did I realize that the nightmare was about to begin.

It just so happened that Yang He's girlfriend and I knew how to play, so Yang He and I sat on both sides of the dining table, each stretched out our right hands and overlapped, leaving a small hole at the intersection of the two tiger mouths; Insert another pen into the small hole and clamp it, and point the tip of the pen vertically on a piece of paper prepared on the dining table.

"And then?" I didn't know that the catastrophe was coming, and I still asked Tang Judo with a hippie smile.

In order to scare the two girls, Yang He and I not only turned off the lights, but also lit a white candle in each corner of the dining table.

"Then he read softly: 'Pen Immortal Pen Immortal please come, Pen Immortal Pen Immortal please come...... 'until Pen Immortal comes.' If the pen fairy comes, the pen will automatically draw a circle on the paper. I don't know who said that.

Me: "What about coming?" ”

"When the pen fairy comes, you can ask him questions, and if the answer is yes, the pen will draw circles on the paper. The more round the circle, the more spiritual this pen fairy is, and the ...... The more evil ......"

He Xueyi's voice trembled a little, and I glanced at it funny, she grabbed Tang Rou's hand tightly, and then Tang Rou added: "When it's over, remember to invite the pen fairy away." ”

"How do you leave?"

"Just say, 'Thank you, Pen Fairy, please go slowly.'" ”

I listened and did everything, and at the beginning Yang He and I clamped the pen tightly, not to mention drawing circles, even if it was impossible to move on the paper. But after a long time, both of them got tired, the two hands lost the balance of power, and the pen began to move.

We see that the pen begins to move irregularly, leaving irregular lines on the paper.

But Yang He and I don't think anything about it, anyway, it's just because our hands are shaking.

There are still words in our mouths: "Pen Fairy Pen Fairy please come, Pen Fairy Pen Fairy please come over" but after calling for a long time, there is still no sign ......of the pen fairy, but my hands and Yang He's hands are getting more and more tired, and then they begin to shake slowly, and the lines on the paper have become twisted and twisted.

Suddenly! I felt Yang He's hand no longer tremble, but was unusually calm, pushing my hand with a force that I couldn't control, as if I was intending to push it out of a circle on the paper.

Suddenly, I raised my head in surprise and found that Yang He's eyes were also wide open and staring at me!

At the same time, a gust of wind blew through the outside of the house, whistling through the wooden walls, making a "whining" sound.

I listened closely...... Finally, I heard: "Meow, whoa......"

It's a cat meow!

The voice came from afar, and I felt as if it were coming from the hill behind the apartment, and the sound seemed extremely miserable.

I suddenly felt a wave of fear, a chill and tingling rising from the soles of my feet, rising against my skin to the ends of my hair, goosebumps all over my body.

I saw that Tang Rou and He Xueyi were already frightened, but their eyes were fixed on the pen in my hand. Pen!

When I looked back, the pen had already drawn a circle on the paper: a circle that could not be more round, as if it had been made with a compass.

The voices of the two girls trembled: "It's coming!" Ghost!! ”

Yang He was calmer than me, puffing out the muscles on his body as if he was about to hit someone at any time, and asked into the air first, "Are you a pen fairy?" ”
