~Woo~Woo~Woo, the whistle of the train sounded, and the sweet voice of the announcer came from inside the car: "Ahead is the terminal station of this train, please bring your belongings and get off the train in an orderly ......." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Hearing this broadcast, Long Daoling woke up like a dream, and his heart was full of joy, the home he had been thinking about for a long time was finally coming, he looked out the window, it was almost dusk at this time, and what caught his eyes was the city and streets he was familiar with.

After arriving at the station, he hurriedly packed his things, and like the rest of the passengers on the train, he got off the train in a hurry, and ran out without hesitation, which was still some distance from the town where his home was located, and Long Daoling also continued to step on the bus to the town and return home.

Although the car was bumpy all the way, but at this time the road from home was getting closer and closer, and after a while, the car had come to the town, Long Daoling got out of the car, looked at the scene in front of him, took a deep breath, and the long-lost hometown smell came to his face.

"Hometown, I'm back," Long Daoling said in a low voice.

He walked slowly in the town, although he returned to the town, his aunt's house was still relatively remote, and he needed to take another bus to arrive, but at this time, Long Daoling was not in a hurry, he had been in the car for too long, and he hoped to walk around and soothe the muscles and bones of his body.

I haven't been back for four years, although there is no prosperity and liveliness of the city, but there is the quiet and leisure of the people, there are no kinds of novel food in the city, but there are traditional folk food, after returning to his hometown, he also deeply felt that only home is the most comfortable place. Unconsciously, he passed through the elementary school he had studied before, and the memories of the scenes came back to him, remembering the things he encountered when he was a child, and he felt like he was revisiting.

Just when he was immersed in the idea of revisiting his hometown, he was disturbed by the noise around him, and he walked over curiously, and found several police cars lined up near the school, as if something serious had happened, and it was also crowded with people.

Long Daoling also walked into the crowd, the accident site had been cordoned, and there were also some people's cries, and he didn't know what was going on, so he heard the onlookers talking about something.

"Alas, these children are so pitiful, they just died."

"I don't know who killed a thousand knives, and he was so cruel to children."

"I hope the police will quickly find out the truth and catch the murderer."

Listening to the voices of the crowd, Long Daoling also heard the relevant information, it turned out that there were several murders here just now, the victim was a primary school student, it is said that the murderer was very cruel, but the police have no clues at present, and are investigating.

Long Daoling also sighed regretfully, and left the crowd, he didn't expect to encounter such a bad thing as soon as he returned to his hometown, and he originally wanted to continue to walk around the town, but his mood at this time was also ruined a lot, and now he wanted to return to his aunt's house as soon as possible.

However, when he hadn't walked a few steps, he vaguely felt a looming ghost aura, which seemed to be left here and had not dissipated, Long Dao Ling couldn't help but feel a stir in his heart, looking at the crime scene in front of him, and wondering: Could this matter have anything to do with ghosts.

Although there are doubts in his heart, he is not easy to investigate at this time, and he also wrote down the smell of this breath, and decided to find a time to come and check it tomorrow, I don't know if it is because he has served as the head of security in Yeling Academy in the past four years, and when he thinks of things related to that, he is particularly concerned, and he does not want this kind of disaster to occur here in his hometown.

After making up his mind, he also hurriedly took the last train home, seeing that after the car arrived at the station, Long Daoling rushed out with an arrow step, trotting all the way in the direction of his aunt's house, walking on the familiar path home, the mood was like a bird released, and the advice of his uncle and aunt was still in his ears when he left home, and the black figure of circling around himself was also vivid at this time.

At this time, it was getting late, and the outline of his aunt's house was close at hand, and after several twists and turns, he finally arrived home, and came to the door of his house, where the deep nicks appeared to be a little damaged, but he could still see the handwriting: safe in and out.

Long Daoling gently pushed open the door of his aunt's house and shouted excitedly, "Auntie, uncle, I'm back." ”

After a while, my aunt's excited voice came from inside the house: "Xiaoling, you are finally back, but you can wait for your aunt and uncle so anxiously." With the voice, the haggard figure of the aunt appeared in front of Long Daoling with a happy face.

Looking at his aunt's appearance, Long Daoling couldn't hold back his emotions, and his eyes turned red: "Well, aunt, I'm back." After saying that, he slowly stepped forward and hugged his aunt, and was silent.

"Hehe, Xiaoling, you've grown up, it's not good to cry like a child." My aunt said with a smile.

"Auntie, I didn't cry, I just had some discomfort in my eyes." Long Daoling secretly wiped a handful of tears after speaking, looked up at his aunt, and smirked.

My uncle also heard the sound and walked out, and when he saw Long Daoling, he also smiled and said, "Xiao Ling, you're back, come into the house." Long Daoling looked at them and said, "Uncle and aunt, you have been a lot haggard over the years, and you have worked hard all these years. ”

"Silly boy, let's not work hard, my aunt is talking about you day and night, and I'm very happy to see you come back, I'll go clean up your room first," the uncle hurriedly ran into the room after speaking.

"Come into the house, my aunt and uncle know that you are back, get ready early, and let's have a warm meal tonight." My aunt said happily.

"Well, auntie, I've been in the car for a few days, and I'm so hungry alone, I miss your cooking." Long Dao Ling said with a smile.

Then, Long Daoling also followed his aunt back to the house, and looked around, it was the same here as it was four years ago, it hadn't changed at all, and the furnishings in the house were still the same, looking neat and clean. Walking into the back room, the pungent smell of green onions, the sour smell of stale vinegar, the smoke wafting when stir-frying, the glare when salt and peppers were put in, his eyes were so smoked that he couldn't blink everything he could see.

Walking into the room, my uncle also cleaned up briefly, and it was the same as when he left, without any changes, a desk and an old and faded wardrobe, a simple and warm feeling came to life.

Before Long Daoling had time to recall this, his aunt shouted outside: "Xiao Ling, hurry up and wash your hands and come out to eat." ”

"Oh." He replied and walked out.

At dinner in the evening, his uncle and aunt kept asking for warmth, and he also told the two of them about their life on campus in the past four years, after all, they had been away from home for so long, and the three of them had a lot of topics.

However, Long Daoling was immersed in the warm atmosphere of the home, and always felt that something was missing, and suddenly, he seemed to think of something, and asked his aunt: "By the way, aunt, I have been back for so long, why haven't I seen the black evil?" ”

When my aunt heard this, she looked at her uncle for a while, and her expression was not quite right, and then my aunt sighed and said, "Xiao Ling, it's gone." ”

"Ah, how could it be gone, when did it happen?" Long Daoling asked in disbelief.

"This, I can't remember exactly, one night, it ran out and never came back, and we looked for it for a long time." My aunt thought for a moment and said.

Long Daoling was a little sullen after hearing this, and his uncle also said to him: "Xiaoling, if you like dogs, your uncle has raised another one for you, don't be unhappy." ”

"Uncle, that's not what I mean, the black evil is for me..." Long Daoling didn't want to continue talking about this, and he didn't want the atmosphere of reunion with his uncle and aunt to be ruined by his mood at this time.

After dinner, Long Daoling returned to his room, he walked to the window, lit a cigarette, looked at the scene outside the window, and was also very depressed.

Before the hundred ghosts appeared, the black demon was a little friend who grew up with him, and for his uncle, he might just be a dog, but for himself, he was a member of the family, a family-like existence.

Maybe there will always be some regrets in life, he shook his head helplessly, went back to bed and lay down, and sat in the car for a few days, he was also quite tired at this time, and slowly fell asleep.

I don't know if it's because he hasn't slept in his bed for too long, tonight he slept very soundly, and it was very heavy, and when he woke up, it was noon the next day, and he walked out of the room with a shaken hand.

My uncle has gone out to work, my aunt is cooking, and life seems to have returned to the previous fragments, looking at these pictures, the unpleasant mood last night has eased slightly, and at this time, my aunt saw her walk out, and said with a smile: "Xiaoling, you woke up, my aunt saw that you slept so soundly, and knew that you must be very tired, and she didn't dare to wake you up." ”

"Well, it's true that I'm tired, but I slept well last night, and the bed at home is comfortable, and now I'm very energetic." Long Dao Ling also replied.

"That's good, that's good." My aunt said with relief.

At this time, Long Daoling also said to his aunt: "Auntie, it's rare to come back, I want to go around these days, the air here is much better than in the city." ”

"That's right, the town has changed a little over the years, you should also go and see it, just graduated, now is the time to go and relax." My aunt said slowly.

After lunch, Long Daoling walked on the path of his hometown, breathing the air of the taste of his hometown, watching the fish jumping in the river spitting blisters along the way, swinging one after another microwave, the young leaves drifting on the water surface are like a flat boat, rowing one wave after another, the towering peaks, verdant and lush, did not succumb under the hot smoke, and were still so energetic. This is the natural scenery of my hometown, and perhaps it is the nostalgia that people often say.

After wandering around for a while, he also decided to go to the center of the town to have a look, last night was in a hurry, and he didn't have an in-depth understanding of the strange things he encountered there last night, so he could take this opportunity to investigate. After making up his mind, he immediately walked in the direction of the center of the town.
