Chapter 30: Xiaoqian (1)
The high diver left his computer bag behind him and began to climb.
The routed wall gave him a lot of support points, and it wasn't too difficult for him to jump out of a wall before it turned into loose sand, or to grab a beam or something like that if he missed.
The climb was smooth, and he fell four times in total, the worst of which was from the tenth floor to the fourth floor, where a hammock hung between two walls saved him.
However, it was nothing, and in the green flames near the top floor, he suddenly heard a rustling sound, like countless thin feet running quickly over the wall.
He froze there and stared at the green flame above his head for a moment, but the strange rustling sound did not appear again, and he cautiously reached out and reached into the green flame above, and he felt something hard, like the leg of a table or a chair.
He thought he was finally at the top. He leaped into the air, dragging the hard object and climbing up.
It was a great feeling to re-step on the solid floor.
The high diver sat on the cold wooden floor, gasping heavily.
This is Xiao Qian's living room, yes, all the furnishings are the same as when he saw them before, except for the green flame. On his left is the kitchen and dining room, and on the right are the studio, bathroom, and Xiaoqian's bedroom.
At this moment, there was a thin sound of music coming from the studio.
The high dive stood up and slowly walked towards the studio.
The door to the studio was open, and through the cracks, the pink computer desk could be seen turning a disgusting brownish red in the green flames, the computer screen was black, and there was no one in the computer chair in front of the desk.
Gao Qian gently pushed the door open completely, and the room was unobstructed in front of him, the bed looked a little messy, a pillar-like hanger for hanging clothes fell to the floor, and at the foot of the bed lay a rabbit fur slipper with the bottom facing up. Gui Xiaoqian is not here.
The sound of music came from the computer desk, and Gao Qian walked slowly over.
The computer didn't turn on, he pressed the switch of the desk lamp on the side, and there was no power. However, the sound of music continued to come from the computer speakers that were not yet plugged in, and he listened intently for a moment, a female voice singing in a low voice.
"High dive, come up there. He heard the voice say.
Gao Dive was startled and looked up at the ceiling. There was also a rolling green flame, but it didn't look like it could be walked through at will.
"I'm up there, high diving, come here for me. The voice was staccato in the melody.
Gao Qian frowned slightly, turned around and went back to the living room. There is a balcony on the side of the living room against the kitchen, of course there is green flames at the moment, Gao Qian opened the balcony door and walked out, leaned out of the railing and looked up, he saw the iron fence, it seemed that there was a rooftop above, and Gui Xiaoqian was there.
But how did she get there? Forget it, he didn't want to know. Gao Qian pulled the downspout on the side of the balcony hard, gritted his teeth, and stepped on the railing of the balcony with the downpipe.
Since he was a child, the tallest thing he has climbed is a two-story old locust tree, in order to eat locust flowers, he was not less taught by the old lady in the courtyard with a feather duster. The twelfth floor was the most difficult challenge he had ever experienced in his life, and it was completely different from climbing the broken wall in the building just now, Gao Qian quickly glanced at the concrete road like a thin line under his feet, and his legs went weak for a while.
Don't look, don't look, he muttered, staring at the balcony door in front of him, tiptoe on the smooth balcony railing, and with the other hand he tried to grope for the floor above, until he finally reached the iron fence, and now he just had to climb up.
"You're here. ”
Gao Diving jumped off the fence and looked at the woman in front of him in surprise.
The woman stood there watching him silently, her long black hair curling to the ground, mingling with the wet dirt on the ground.
She was wearing floor-length white nightgowns, barefoot, her eyes reflected the dancing green flames, and the night wind blew her thin clothes against her body, and Gao Qian was embarrassed to see that she was wearing nothing inside.
"Gui Xiaoqian?" Gao Qian called out uncertainly, the face of the woman in front of her was still Gui Xiaoqian's face, but her expression was not quite right, she looked more like Gui Xiaoqian twenty years later, although there was no wrinkle on her face, and her body was tall and youthful.
"High diving. The woman replied calmly.
"Gui Xiaoqian, what are you doing here?" Gao Qian struggled to make a relaxed voice.
"I'm waiting for you. Gui Xiaoqian replied, her voice was very soft, but it clearly came into Gao Qian's ears, as if she was whispering in his ear.
"Wait for me?" Gao Qian tried to get closer to Gui Xiaoqian, but he found that no matter how he walked, he and Gui Xiaoqian kept the same distance, and he couldn't get close to her at all.
This damn world of black light.
He gave up his futile attempt and changed his computer bag from his left shoulder to his right shoulder: "The view here is good. ”
"Really?"
Gao Qian glanced at the phone he secretly touched, and sure enough, there was no signal. It seems that he has no way to contact Sherlock in the outside world, and he can't know Gui Xiaoqian's negative energy change value at the moment. Everything can only be judged by himself.
"It's just that there are no stars, which is a bit of a pity. Gao Qian quietly put the phone back.
"You like stars?"
"I thought you liked it, don't women like any starlight, how romantic. In fact, Gao Qian didn't know what he was talking about at the moment, he still remembered Sherlock's previous instructions: stabilize her, say something to make her feel better, if loving her can reduce her negative energy, even if it is difficult, please try.
"I don't like it, I always see blood in the stars, and I don't like to lie. ”
"Then don't lie, I like to hear the truth. ”
"No, you won't like it, no one will. Gui Xiaoqian shook her head, and Gao Qian was surprised to find that her long hair was actually connected to the earth under her feet, like veins of the earth, and in the distance, there were tree shadows rising from the hair strands, and those hair strands were like their rhizomes.
"Gui Xiaoqian, your hair?" Gao Qian's heart flashed with a hint of coolness, what kind of world is this?
"What's wrong, why is your face so pale?" Gui Xiaoqian didn't seem to notice her own abnormality at all.
Gao Qian glanced at the strange world around him and shook his head: "Gui Xiaoqian, should we sit down and have a chat?" Maybe you can drink some beer, if you don't have beer, those energy drinks will do fine." ”
Xiao Qian smiled slightly, her pale cheeks were as if they were before, and a smile floated: "You don't have to force yourself, I know you hate those drinks." ”
"It's not ...... either"
"Actually, I hate it too, but I have to pretend I like it in front of the camera so I can get the money, you know? I hate it. ”
"Then change jobs. "You can go to school or even participate in a talent show, you'll always find a path for yourself." ”
"No, you don't understand, I want popularity. Without popularity, I would die. ”
It's popularity again, Gao Qian frowned slightly, this is not the first time he has heard Gui Xiaoqian say the word death for popularity, could it be that the crux of Gui Xiaoqian's negative energy is this?
"Xiaoqian, I think you have some misunderstandings about popularity......"
"I'm so disappointed, if I'm dead, why should this world continue to exist?"
What the?
