For a week, Mr. Lu remained unconscious. And I can only fidget at Xue Qian's house.

During this time, I went to the empty house twice, and there was nothing out of the ordinary. As a matter of fact. It's not just the empty house, the entire Huaicheng is surprisingly calm. The imps seem to have disappeared en masse.

Only every night, the leaves fall from the trees and are swept away by the ancient moon. At that time, I was standing in the house, and Aunt Xue and Xue Qian were gone. The people outside are also gone.

It's as if there are only three of us left in the world. I was helpless, Mr. Lu was unconscious, and the ancient moon god was mysterious.

There were many times when I wanted to rush out of the door and ask Gu Yue for clarification. But when it came to the end, I held back. Mr. Lu went out to see the situation, and if he was injured like this, something must have happened outside.

I sat on the couch in the living room with a large knife in my hand. Eyes fixed on the alarm clock on the table. In the distance, a rooster crowed, and the world returned to normal. I survived another night.

I've noticed that the falling leaves are going on longer and longer. All night, I had to break away from the normal world.

I sighed and put the broadsword on the table. Then he stretched.

At this time, Xue Qian opened the door and walked out neatly dressed.

I looked at the alarm clock, and it was only five o'clock. I asked, "What are you doing here?" ”

Xue Qian asked me with a stern face: "Lao Zhao, what are you playing with Mr. Lu?" ”

I looked at him in amazement: "What am I playing?" ”

Xue Qian sat down and said, "Every night, the two of you disappear. During the day, I came back inexplicably. I've watched both of you many times. Frankly. Has Mr. Lu's injury been healed a long time ago? ”

When I heard this, I couldn't help but smile bitterly, and then said, "That's not the case at all. ”

Then I told me about the fact that every night when the leaves fell, the people of the world would disappear.

Xue Qian glared when she heard this: "So weird? The only two of you left in the world? ”

I nodded and said, "yes." It started that night when we came back from the bathing center. ”

Xue Qian asked suspiciously, "But that night, I was with you and didn't disappear." ”

When I heard Xue Qian say this, I felt a little strange in my heart, scratching my head. said: "Could it be that Gu Yue deliberately let us be together?" ”

At this time, a weak voice came and said, "On the first day, it was just a test for us. ”

I turned my head and found that Mr. Lu had already come out of the room. I rejoiced, "Are you awake?" ”

Mr. Lu nodded, staggered two steps, and sat down on the sofa. Intestinal mea.

Xue Qian asked with a smile: "Lu Laodao, you are walking and shaking now, what's wrong?" Legs and feet are not in order? ”

Mr. Lu waved his hand and said, "After lying in bed for more than a week, normal people have to lie down with problems." ”

Then he glanced at me and sighed, "Zhao Mang, you have made me miserable." ”

I was angry: "Who carried you back?" Who healed you? How did it become that I made you miserable? ”

Mr. Lu closed his eyes slightly and said, "You rushed me to find Gu Yue, and you made me look like this, didn't you make me miserable?" ”

I laughed angrily: "When did I rush you to find Gu Yue?" It's clear that you want to go. ”

Then, I asked with some curiosity, "But then again, have you seen Gu Yue?" She hurt you like this? ”

Mr. Lu closed his eyes slightly and said, "I saw my blind mother-in-law." ”

I said, "Yes, that blind woman is Gu Yue. ”

Mr. Lu shook his head: "You are mistaken, the blind mother-in-law is not Gu Yue." ”

I heard him say it for sure, and I muttered a little in my heart. But I remember the events of that night vividly. I can see Gu Yue's expressions and movements clearly, and the rest of the people will definitely not be able to learn it.

So I said, "No, it must be Gu Yue, I can guarantee this." ”

Mr. Lu sighed and said, "When you met her, she was still Gu Yue, and when I went again, she was no more." ”

I looked at Mr. Lu and didn't understand what he meant for a while.

Mr. Lu asked me, "Do you remember what Gu Yue said to you at the end?" She said that it stands to reason that I should only be here tomorrow, but I am old and frail, so it would be better to come two days earlier to sweep the fallen leaves. ”

I nodded and said, "She did say that." ”

Mr. Lu added: "I remember another sentence. You won't have to look for me anymore, and I won't recognize you anymore when you come to me. ”

I said, "yes, what's wrong with those two sentences?" ”

Mr. Lu said: "It's a big problem. The meaning of these two sentences is that according to the original plan, the next day, a blind mother-in-law will come here to sweep the streets. Gu Yue arrived two days in advance, pretending to be her, hiding from everyone, and came to report to you. And tell you not to go to her again the next day, because by then she is gone, and the street sweeper has become a real blind mother-in-law. ”

I suddenly realized, nodded again and again, and said, "As soon as I explain this, it will be very smooth." Mr. Lu, you have a very good brain. ”

Mr. Lu smiled bitterly: "If I had a good brain, would I be injured like this?" I lay in bed and slept groggily for seven days before I finally figured it out. ”

Xue Qian asked, "Old Dao Lu, I'm getting more and more worried about you now. Why can't you even beat a blind old woman? ”

Mr. Lu said: "The ability of a blind mother-in-law is just ordinary, that is, an ordinary ghost. It's not that I'm bragging, I'll kill her as soon as I make a move. ”

Xue Qian looked at Mr. Lu coldly and said, "Blow, you keep blowing." ”

Mr. Lu rubbed his face with his hands, breathed a long sigh of relief, and said, "That day, I blocked my blind mother-in-law on the corner of the street and asked her what she wanted to sue me in a secret language. The blind mother-in-law looked at me with a panicked expression, and then, I don't know what code she made, and the hidden master came out. ”

I was surprised: "The master who is hidden? What does it look like? He was able to make the leaves fall all over Huaicheng. Inexplicably grew back, this power is so powerful, you can come back to life under his hands, it's amazing. ”

Mr. Lu smiled a little contemptuously: "Maybe there are ghosts and gods who can make the leaves fall, but let them grow inexplicably, they will definitely not be able to do it." The fallen leaves we saw at night were not really falling, but just a trick. ”

I nodded: "Gu Yue also told me, it's an illusion." ”

Mr. Lu continued: "The ability of this master, although it has not reached the point of shocking the world. But it can isolate the two of us from this world. This hand is also very good. I guess he used something like soul hooking. ”

Xue Qian said: "Don't interrupt the two of you, what happened to that master after he came out?" ”

Mr. Lu said: "I didn't see the appearance of this master. But I could feel that he was coming. It only took a few seconds for me to feel like a thousand insects were biting me, and I couldn't help but scratch it. But when I looked down, there were no bugs. I guess he was influencing my brain and hallucinating me. ”

"If I really scratch it, I'm afraid this skin will be rotten. So I drew a lot of charms on my body. Barely blocked him. This master did not seem to intend to take my life, and after seriously injuring me, he did not kill me again, and when he saw me hiding in the empty house, he did not chase me again. ”

Xue Qian sighed: "Lu Laodao, you are really fatal. ”

We were silent for a while, and then I asked, "Gu Yue took such a big risk to deliver a letter to us, so what exactly did she want to say?" ”

Mr. Lu said: "I don't know, there are thousands of explanations for this kind of thing before it happens, and only when it really happens, can you suddenly realize that this is the case." ”

In the next few days, Mr. Lu and I straightened our minds. Begin to recognize that it is not the world that disappears every night, but us.

In the past few days, we have visited old friends over and over again, as if saying goodbye on their deathbed, eating, drinking, and connecting with each other. Then, the Chung Yeung Festival arrived.
