"Yo, such a serious punishment. It seems that what is in my stomach is very important to you. Would you like to consider being nice to me? ”
He puffed out his cigarette and looked at me: "Isn't it good enough now?" I, the eldest young master of the Jiang family, help you cook every day. ”
"Jiang Lichen! You don't know what it means to be in love! Now I am to you the same as my aunt who is conducive to your completion of the task. A marriage certificate is just a piece of paper. Those things in bed are just physical needs for each other. We are not in love. Alas! Go back to sleep. ”
I feel really uncomfortable. is also a special post teacher, and he is also a good age, and some people pursue and some show goodwill. I could only walk down the street by myself, and I saw all that kind of weird thing. Unwilling!
At night, I didn't fall asleep in Jiang Lichen's room again. My room is a little shabby, but I can still sleep. The separation officially began.
On Friday, I wasn't in the mood for class. I let the children play for an afternoon. Anyway, in this kind of mountain village primary school, no one will assess whether the curriculum is carried out well, as long as the final Chinese and mathematics are not too ugly.
I was playing in the office with my phone, and the other teachers were talking about harvesting grain. Teacher Liao answered the phone and asked the old principal for leave. The reason for his leave was that his aunt, who had married out of the family, died suddenly in the morning, and he was going to eat liquor.
I asked the old principal curiously, what is the identity of the aunt who got married?
The old principal said, "It's my grandmother's generation, it's my grandfather's sister." ”
"Liao's grandfather's sister, how old is that?"
"Just the old woman who picked up the bottle that I saw on the streets of the village. You can see her on the street. The whole village probably knows her. When I was a child, she used to pick up things on the street and sell them. The children in their family rely on her to pick up garbage for their education. There are also two college students in the family. Now it's more than ninety. ”
I was shocked when I heard this: "Old principal, isn't that old lady with long legs, very thin, and a hunched back?" ”
"Yes, yes, it's a terrible camel."
Isn't this the old lady I saw last night? At first, I thought I had seen a ghost without a head. Last night, the old lady was gone, but her shadow remained in that corner. Then her shadow was captured by several demons. I can't say any of that. "How did the old lady die?"
"The old lady picks up bottles on the street every day, and she doesn't see any illness. Teacher Liao just said that he fell when he got up in the morning to cook porridge, and when he was old, he was afraid of falling. By the time the daughter-in-law got up, she was already out of breath. ”
I always felt that it was because those ghosts had taken her shadow away that she would die so quickly. But we can't talk about this kind of old man's death.
After school in the afternoon, the sky also darkened. It feels like it's going to rain.
Even if Jiang Lichen was a little bit uneasy, I still left the mountain village in his car. If there is a slight disagreement, and he doesn't even sit in his car, it's not that I'm suffering. There was a two-a-day shuttle bus in the village, and I really didn't have much confidence that I could squeeze in.
When the car drove to the township, there was a traffic jam. Looking at the corner intersection, a car crashed into an electric car. There was a traffic jam for a while.
Jiang Lichen parked the car, took out his mobile phone, and started sending messages. I don't know who he messaged to, but I can use it for a few minutes in a traffic jam. The light was getting dimmer and dimmer, and many cars were lit up. I was bored looking outside the car.
The street in the township is a two-lane road with houses and shops on both sides. On the streets, there are people who set up stalls here. It can't even compare to the urban-rural junction in the city, but for the people nearby, it is already very prosperous.
Next to the car, junior high school students walked by from time to time. There is only one junior high school in the township, and the junior high school is also out of school at this time. Many students have to walk to the side of the road in front of them to wait for the bus and take the bus home.
Many of them have bottles of mineral water in their hands, or bottles of whatever they are. Groups of three or five, chattering. From time to time, bottles are thrown on the garbage heap on the side of the road.
I unconsciously looked at the garbage heap where the old lady had been last night, and in the dim light, I saw the gray figure again. I couldn't be wrong about her! The back is semi-round, and the head is lowered to the belly. When you stand up, your legs look very long.
She also held a stick and a woven bag of pig feed printed with "twins" in her hand, and kept talking in her mouth as she picked up a bottle on the side of the road.
Isn't she already dead? Fell to his death early this morning. Teacher Liao also took leave to eat liquor. Why are you still here?
I stretched out my hand and patted Jiang Lichen until he put down his phone, looked at me, and said to me, "What? ”
"That old lady! I saw her taken away by the demons last night. It's her, you can't go wrong! ”
Jiang Lichen looked out and said, "Her soul is only." I came out repeating the habits that I had developed for many years, the habits that went deep into the marrow and soul. After the first seven, you can't see it. I'm so old, and I don't have anything to worry about. ”
"She was captured by a ghost, how could she not be concerned?" I asked rhetorically, looking at the figure outside, my heart still nervous. Ghosts? Seeing that she was just picking up bottles, it had nothing to do with anyone, and it wouldn't hurt anyone.
Jiang Lichen frowned: "If she was really captured by the ghost, then she should not come back until the first seven days." Why is it coming out now? Those ghosts saw you last night, too. He didn't say any more, as if he was thinking about something.
The traffic accident ahead has been dealt with, and the car has begun to move slowly. After such a long time, the naivety is about to get dark.
By the time our car entered the city and started running in the lane with street lights, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening and almost nine o'clock in the evening. It started to rain and the wind was still blowing. The shadows of the trees on the side of the road kept shaking.
The windshield wipers kept blowing, and a strange scene began to appear in front of my eyes. Under the shadows of those swaying trees, there were many hidden eyes, and those eyes were looking at me. And the shadows of the trees gradually changed, turning into claw-waving monsters, and they reached out towards me, little by little, approaching me.
Pain! Sobered me up. I gasped and looked around, the car had stopped, the rain had subsided a lot, and the shadows of the trees outside were not as arrogant as I remembered.
Jiang Lichen's eyes were very heavy. He said to me, "I wanted to surprise you." Looks like someone is going to trouble us. Get out of the car. ”
When I moved my body, I felt the pain of being scratched on my arm. When I turned my head, I saw that a blood mark had appeared on my arm. Isn't this the place where I was caught by the shadow in my hallucination just now? That's not an illusion, it's real. I'm hurt!
I yelled at Jiang Lichen: "Jiang Lichen! I'm bleeding! ”
"See." He got out of the car.
I chased after me: "Jiang Lichen, just now, the tree and shadow I saw are not like this!" It's scratched by a shadow! ”
"Yes."
"You know that's it? I'm scratched by a shadow! If those shadows had cut my neck artery just now, would I have bled here and died? Do you know a word? "I'm angry, really angry! How could Jiang Lichen be so calm?
He grabbed me by the wrist, dragged me into the room, closed the door, and said, "If I hadn't been quick enough just now, you would have been cut out of your neck and cut your stomach by now." ”
"What do you mean?" The headlights in the living room were turned on, and I looked at him in the bright light. He also had several scratches on his arm. It was deep, but there was no blood, just the flesh and skin were turned over. I see, he just helped me block it. Compared to his wounds, the blood on my arm was nothing. I scratch it with my own nails, and it's better than this. "Well, your injuries are fine."
He let go of me and walked to the second floor: "Stay in the house, it'll be fine." ”
"Hey! You don't care? ”
I walked up without any reason. I sat on the sofa, and the more I thought about it, the more angry I became, Jiang Lichen has such emotional intelligence and this kind of behavior, can he still be a spy? Just like him, what other aunt or official lady will take a fancy to?
Time passed little by little, and I calmed down a lot. Looking at the blood marks on his arm and thinking about the three or four wounds on his hand, the more he thought about it, the more wrong it became. Still rushed to the room on the second floor in a few steps.
There was no Jiang Lichen in the room, and I shouted twice, but I didn't hear an answer. "Jiang Lichen? You won't just get angry and leave me alone. "Before I think about it, he also left me like this no matter when, but he always left for something.
I searched the whole house, even the room where no one lived was opened, and I didn't see him.
The worry in my heart is becoming more and more obvious. But think about it, he's a ghost, he comes and goes without a trace, and it's not a big deal that he just disappears. It's just that my heart is very uneasy.
Where the hell did he go?
After hesitating for a moment, I pulled out a paper bag from behind the door of my room. The bag was a white lantern I bought at the boutique when I was shopping with Xiao Yan last week. Looking at the instructions above, it is said that it is pure white and can be painted by yourself. I just thought this lantern was very similar to Jiang Lichen's, so I bought it back. When I first went to the mountain village, he and the white lantern appeared at the same time. Maybe I can light a white lantern right now, and he'll know I'm looking for him.
I thought so, and I did. I lit a lantern with a lighter, hung it at the head of the bed, and looked around, but there was no change at all. After thinking about it, I scratched my fingers with a small paper cutter and wrote my name on the lantern one by one. He let out a long sigh in his heart, and looked around, but he still didn't show up.
