How long the darkness in front of him lasted and Xia Beifeng himself didn't know. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

When he regained consciousness again, a feeling of dizziness rushed over his brain.

When he opened his eyes, he found himself lying on a cold tiled floor, and what he saw was a crystal chandelier in front of him.

How does this lamp look a little familiar...... It's ugly, which nouveau riche chosen?

When such doubts flashed through his mind, he gradually recovered his long-sealed memory.

It seems that a long, long time ago, a little boy was clamoring to buy such a shiny chandelier when he was renovating his new home, and after installing it, he turned a simple and fresh decoration style villa into a splendid nightclub style.

It turns out that I still have a time when my aesthetics are so broken?

He thought in shock and got up from the ground.

Every muscle in my body was screaming for soreness, and it felt like I had been running for seven or eight hours in the mountains with weights, and I was so tired that I almost wanted to die.

Since this is ...... Then it should be......

He sat on the ground and looked around.

Sure enough, there is no difference from the furnishings in memory.

The chandelier above his head was still dazzling, and the throwing stick was still in his hand, but the black-clothed female ghost who was supposed to be by his side didn't know where to run.

He lifted his wrist and glanced down at his watch.

The time pointed to twelve o'clock in the morning.

"Is there no one at home? If you don't turn off the lights in the middle of the night, what are you trying to do! ”

He grumbled quietly, struggled to his feet, and walked up the stairs.

If memory serves, the switch for this thing is ......

The door to a room on the second floor slowly opened.

"Who's coming?"

A gentle female voice came overhead, followed by a series of gentle footsteps.

The walker walked with a very light foot, and his voice seemed to be in his throat, as if he was careful not to wake up anything.

Xia Beifeng was stunned the moment he heard the voice, although he somewhat guessed the situation in front of him, but when he really heard the voice, he still couldn't accept it calmly. His eyes stared directly at the reflective staircase handrail in front of him, and he heard the sound of his heart beating violently, and he didn't dare to look up.

"You ......"

The woman's voice came from the middle of the stairs, still softly and quietly, with a gentle detachment: "This gentleman, how did you get in, and who are you looking for?" ”

If it was an ordinary person, when she saw a strange man appear in the living room of her house in the middle of the night, she probably screamed a long time ago, and then called the police.

"I am ......"

Xia Beifeng whispered these two words and stopped.

Who am I?

Why am I here?

How should it be explained?

Make up a story to lie to her?

Or is it straightforward to tell the truth?

Will she believe it anyway?

Thoughts flashed through him, turning his mind into a mess, making it almost impossible to think normally.

"This gentleman? Are you okay? ”

The woman asked again, calling him back to reality from his confusion.

Xia Beifeng slowly raised his head and looked up.

The woman in front of her looked twenty-seven or eighteen years old. At this time, he was standing on the stairs between the first and second floors, pressing on the handrail of the stairs with one hand, covering his towering abdomen with the other, carefully keeping a safe distance from him, and looking at him with a smile.

She wore a heavy coat with a loose cotton nightgown embroidered with a clump of cyan flowers on the hem, revealing a pair of white calves and a pair of plastic sandals on her feet. Her long hair hung down to her waist and was tied casually behind her with a hairband, and a few strands of short broken hair fell from her cheeks, making her more and more gentle and demure.

Xia Beifeng looked at her in a daze, pursed his lips, and a cloud of mist gathered in front of his eyes, blurring his vision.

This person is still the same as he remembers, probably because he was woken up in the middle of sleeping, his face is a little pale, but he still maintains a gentle smile in the face of strangers, his lips are red and his teeth are white, and his peach blossom eyes smile crookedly......

"That's really ...... It looks like me! ”

"What were you talking about, sir?"

The woman upstairs asked softly, "Can you speak louder?" I didn't hear clearly...... Ah, don't be too big, my child is sleeping, don't disturb him. ”

She lifted her finger and tapped her lips lightly, giving him an apologetic smile.

"Oh, nothing."

Xia Beifeng adjusted his mood, tried his best to maintain a calm tone, and nodded at the man: "I'm here to find Shen Yunxi, is he here?" ”

If I remember correctly, there would occasionally be strangers of one kind or another who came to the house to look for Shen Yunxi, but it seemed that they came in the middle of the night...... Not really.

She would have believed that.

"Yunxi, he's not here today, are you? Well, what's the matter with him? If you're not in a hurry, you can leave a message, and I'll tell him when he comes back. ”

The woman kept smiling, lowered her voice a little, and still leaned against the handrail of the staircase, sighing tiredly.

"I'm not in good health, so I won't go down to entertain you, there is tea on that coffee table, if you don't dislike it, you can drink it casually."

"Oh, there's no need for tea, I'll stay for a while and leave."

Xia Beifeng stared at the woman in front of him tightly, and asked with some surprise: "You are not afraid that I am a bad person." ”

"Bad guys!"

The woman smiled slyly and winked at him: "Of course I'm not afraid of bad 'people', and other bad things won't come." And you don't have any malice in you, and you don't look like a bad guy. Of course it's just my feelings, sir, are you a bad person? ”

She deliberately accentuated the pronunciation of the word "human", staring at him meaningfully, as if to imply something.

"I'm certainly not a bad person."

Xia Beifeng replied subconsciously, raising his eyes to stare at the woman's plain white slender neck, as well as a silver chain hanging around her neck.

Underneath the long chain is a rough stone pendant.

How come I never found out she was carrying this before!

Xia Beifeng secretly gasped, and then looked at the woman's clothes again, as well as her bloated belly under her wide nightdress, suddenly realized something, and became more and more uneasy in his heart.

It shouldn't be today...... Probably not, no, absolutely not!

Once again, he was lost in his thoughts, and the woman shouted at him several times on the stairs to get his attention.

"Sir...... This gentleman? ”

She looked at the man who looked at her face again, breathed a sigh of relief, and asked politely: "May I ask your surname, sir, when Yunxi comes back, how should I tell him that you have been here?" ”

"My surname is Xia, but you don't have to tell him. I was just passing by and suddenly it occurred to me that there was an old friend here, and I just wanted to say hello, and since he was not there, I would come back another day. ”

"Surname Xia?"

The woman looked at him with some surprise, and her tone changed subtly when she spoke again, and it still sounded like the original soft and weak taste, but for some reason, it made people feel a little sharp: "Coincidentally, my surname is also Xia." But this place is quite remote, how can you walk by here, sir, are you really here to find Yunxi? ”

Clever fart, you gave me all my names!

The north wind blows in summer, and it's all messy! That's what you think sounds good!

Although his heart was full of desire to complain, Xia Beifeng still maintained his appearance as a serious person, and pretended to be surprised and glared at his eyes: "Oh, what a coincidence!" Of course I'm here to find Mr. Shen, do you have any questions? ”

The woman stared at him with a smile and shook her head slowly, but did not say anything more.

Her eyes, which were originally smiling gently, became brighter and brighter at this time, and the aura of the whole person was a little dangerous, and the attitude of sending off the guests was very obvious.

"Then I'll take my leave first, and I'll visit another day."

Xia Beifeng lowered his head slightly, took two steps back, and once again landed his gaze on the woman's abdomen.

The woman subconsciously tightened my hand on the handrail of the stairs and looked at him suspiciously.

"How many months? Looks like it's about to give birth, right? ”

Xia Beifeng said with a smile: "I don't know if it's a boy or a girl, I'm going to come to rub the full moon wine when the time comes!" ”

"It's almost there, the due date is this week."

Mentioning the child in her belly, the woman immediately changed her tone, lowered her head lovingly, and said softly: "I don't know if it's a man or a woman, Yunxi and I both think that this matter should be fate, so we haven't seen it." But we all want to be a nice and cute little girl. The boy is so naughty, it's annoying to die to raise one, if it's a girl, you can let Xiaobei take care of her, and if he becomes a brother, he can be more stable. ”

Xia Beifeng: "......"

I'm sorry to disappoint you, but in the end it's a "pretty and cute" boy!

You'll know when you're born, and your eldest son is as well-behaved as an angel compared to this little cub, you know!

As for letting Xiaobei be his brother...... Do you know how I've spent so many years as an older brother?

You don't see it, though.

"That's pretty good, a man and a woman, good things come in pairs!"

Xia Beifeng smiled awkwardly, raised his hand and pressed it on the doorknob, and waved his hand at the woman standing on a high place: "Then I'll go first, and I'll come back when the child is full moon." ”

"Sir, walk slowly."

The woman also smiled and waved her hand at him: "The full moon wine must come!" ”

"Good!"

Xia Beifeng replied loudly, turned around and opened the door in front of him.

The howling cold wind blew in through the crack in the door, and he couldn't help but shiver from the cold.

"It's too cold outside, you should hurry back to your room, don't catch a cold at this time."

Xia Beifeng turned his head again and said to the woman behind him.

As he turned his face sideways, he inadvertently glanced at the desk calendar on the table...... and the date above.

"Something suddenly occurred to me."

He closed the door next to him and walked back towards the woman on the stairs.

"What's the matter?"

The woman took a half-step back and looked at him warily.

"You ......"

As soon as Xia Beifeng spit out a word, he saw a black shadow floating by his side.

"Be careful!"

He shouted loudly to the woman as he strode toward the stairs.

It's a pity that no matter how fast humans run, they can't compare to the aliens.

The black shadow floated behind the woman, stretched out a pair of hands, and pushed hard against the woman's back.

The woman's feet were weak, she subconsciously covered her stomach and rolled down the stairs.

The female ghost floating on the stairs looked at Xia Beifeng condescendingly, revealing a vicious and happy smile.

"She's dead!"

The ghost's shrill voice echoed in the empty living room, followed by a series of piercing laughter, which shook the chandelier on the ceiling and trembled.

Then he turned around and disappeared into the white wall beside him in an instant.

When Xia Beifeng ran to the bottom of the stairs, the woman was already curled up on the ground with her belly in her arms.

She always protected her stomach as she rolled down the stairs, completely disregarding her own safety, and when Xia Beifeng turned her body over, she saw a regular wound on her forehead.

"Are you alright?"

He nervously held the woman's limp body, his mind was blank, and he couldn't even think of what he should do at this time.

"Where it hurts, where it hurts...... By the way, hospital, you wait a minute, I'll call 120......"

He hurriedly took out his mobile phone, looked down and saw the signal on the mobile phone screen, and realized that this thing didn't seem to work here.

What about the phone?

He looked up furiously, searching around for the phone that should be in the room.

He should have remembered where the phone was, but his mind was too flustered, and the shallow memory in his mind became more and more blurred at this time.

It should be not far from the door...... A red ......

The memories of the phone finally came to a faint silhouette, and he turned his head to look at the door, and sure enough, he saw the red phone on a small coffee table under the windowsill.

"Hold on, I'll call the doctor...... Don't move yourself, be careful of your wounds, and be careful of your children...... You don't want to die...... Even if it's for ......"

For me.

In the end, he didn't say it.

Xia Beifeng said something incoherently to the woman in his arms, and finally calmed down a little.

He gently laid the woman flat on the floor and turned his head to rush towards the phone at the door.

The woman lying on the ground stared at his back, her eyes full of surprise, but her breathing became weaker and weaker.

On the second floor, there was another small sound of the door opening.

The plastic slippers made a "snapping" sound as they hit the ground, and a loud footstep came from above.

"Mom, is Dad back? You're so noisy, I can't sleep! ”

The little boy called his mother in a milky voice, with the dissatisfaction of being woken up in his tone, and a little coquettish taste unique to children, which made Xia Beifeng feel frightened again.

"Don't come down!"

He pressed 120 and shouted at the children upstairs, "Don't look! ”

But the boy still saw the scene in the house.

He was stunned for a moment, and shouted loudly, "Mom! What happened to you! ”

The phone rang twice, and a gentle female voice came: "Hello, this is the 120 emergency center, may I ask ......"

The woman still looked at Xia Beifeng's figure intently, as if she had figured out something, and actually smiled.

"Little North ......"

She moved her lips and slowly closed her eyes after spitting out these two words.

Xia Beifeng raised his head and met the little boy on the second floor.

The black-clothed female ghost who had disappeared into the wall came out of nowhere, and after talking about the woman pushing down the stairs, she stretched out her hand to the woman's son.

The little boy stared at Xia Beifeng's eyes, and with a roundabout kick without looking back, he directly kicked the female ghost in the abdomen.

The silver chain in the female ghost's hand made a sound similar to that of a brass bell when it was struck.

It sounds quaint and desolate, with a hint of inviolable majesty.

Low, heavy sound waves echoed through the room, clanging the crystals on the roof.

Xia Beifeng was dizzy by the sound, and came back to his senses again, and the female ghost and the little boy upstairs had also disappeared.

He looked at the top of the empty staircase, not knowing why, but he was not surprised.

As if that's how it should be, the kid did leave here for a while at this point in time.

The anxious female voice in the microphone in his hand came into his ears again: "Hey! Excuse me, anyone? What was that sound just now? Can you hear me? Are there any patients? Or are there wounded? Feed! Pls what is your current location ......"

"Oh, I'm ......"

Xia Beifeng lowered his head and reported an address word by word into the microphone.

At this point, his mind suddenly calmed down.

Probably because this series of events was so exciting, he even had the idea that "this seems to be the calmest time in my life".

He calmly reported the address to the phone, waited for a while, and then said it again, and after making sure that the operator on the other side of the phone had recorded the address correctly, he hung up the phone and turned to look at the woman by the stairs.

The woman's white nightdress had been stained red with bright red blood.

She was closing her eyes tightly, tilting her head in the direction of Xia Beifeng, the expression on her face was extraordinarily peaceful, and there was a slight smile on the corner of her mouth, as if she was asleep.

Xia Beifeng walked over slowly, sat on the steps of the stairs, leaned on the handrail of the stairs behind his back, and let out a long breath.

Only then did he feel a chill on his back, and his underwear seemed to be soaked with sweat.

"Mom."

**********************************************

Shen Luotian squatted at home for a while, only to feel more and more uneasy, so he simply changed his clothes and rushed out of the house.

He got into the garage, started the car, and rushed down the hill in the villa area against the howling cold wind and palm-sized snowflakes.

The wheels ran over the thick snow, leaving several deep marks.
