Chapter Twenty-Three: The Sleepy Eyen Elf
"Zhao Rui. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Li Xuyang finally stepped on the water and mud and walked to the front of "Zhao Rui", Zhao Rui didn't speak, just looked coldly at Li Xuyang, who was still panting. Mud is quite stressful and sticky, and walking through the mud and walking on the road are two completely different concepts.
After Li Xuyang took a deep breath, he raised his head to look at Zhao Rui, but when he raised his head, he found that Zhao Rui had already taken a step forward. He couldn't tell if the girl was Zhao Rui, but he felt like it. Like means it may or may not be.
At this time, Li Xuyang found that the direction of "Zhao Rui" was not Xiao Zhangbu, but to Nanqiao Village.
Li Xuyang was very puzzled and didn't understand why "Zhao Rui" didn't go home, but went to another village, was there a classmate of her in that village? The clothes on her body were also her classmate's?
Of course, this is all his speculation, and if he wants to know the real reason, he can only ask her in person.
"Zhao Rui, wait a minute. Li Xuyang said and ran a few steps and came to the front of "Zhao Rui".
"Zhao Rui", who was originally walking with his head up, did not speak when Li Xuyang caught up, but lowered his head slightly, as if he deliberately didn't want Li Xuyang to see her current appearance.
Li Xuyang was a little stunned when he saw this situation, but he still hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, I was wrong, don't be angry." ”
"Zhao Rui" heard Li Xuyang's apology, and his body trembled slightly involuntarily, but he still didn't make a sound.
Li Xuyang was a little anxious, after all, it was still night, although his courage was not small, but he always stayed in the dark, and there was always an ominous premonition. So he said, "Come back with me!." ”
Saying that, Li Xuyang tried to pull "Zhao Rui"'s hand, but was dodged by "Zhao Rui", and took a step back.
Li Xuyang was a little at a loss, thinking that he might still be angry with himself, so he apologized and coaxed. "Zhao Rui" was still indifferent, standing there, letting the breeze blow his sleeves, and she didn't pay attention to her hair.
"What's wrong with you, are you sick?" asked Li Xuyang again. But he didn't reach out to touch "Zhao Rui's" forehead to see that it wasn't a fever, he was worried that Zhao Rui would hide like just now.
"Are you really so worried about me? Or are you deliberately making a scene?" After a while, "Zhao Rui" slowly spit out this sentence from her mouth, and it can also be said that she said this sentence word by word.
"I ......" Li Xuyang choked up a little, he didn't know what kind of attitude he had towards Zhao Rui. First of all, in terms of age, he himself is four or five years older than Zhao Rui. Second, his family is still under a curse, and if this curse is not lifted, then he will not consider getting married. The third is that he doesn't know if he will really like Zhao Rui, or if he will fall in love with her. At present, he is only at a level where he has a good impression of Zhao Rui, and he has not yet reached the point where he can be a good friend.
"Hmph. "Zhao Rui" snorted, and then said, "Why are you men so indecisive, am I not worthy of you?"
"No, it's not. You are mistaken. Li Xuyang's hand swayed in the air.
"What do you say I misunderstood?Aren't you such a person?" Zhao Rui said with a sneer.
Li Xuyang was even more panicked when he heard this, he had very few women, from elementary school to junior high school to joining the army to working, the people who could really become good friends with Li Xuyang for more than 20 years can be counted on two hands. Dealing with women, or talking to women, is a headache for Li Xuyang.
In addition, he has never been in love, so he is even more speechless when facing women. Although he used to be sharp, when facing a woman, the effect of sharp teeth seems to disappear, and all the words in his mind will be swept away.
"Can you go back first? This is not the place to talk. Li Xuyang knew that he couldn't talk about her, so he changed the topic.
"You're deliberately changing the subject to avoid my question, right?" Zhao Rui asked.
Li Xuyang sighed and did not answer.
"I really don't know why I'm so miserable, I always meet negative men. Hehe, God is really unfair to me, making me accept such a cruel reality again and again. ”
Zhao Rui didn't continue to say this sentence after saying this, as if he was waiting for Li Xuyang to answer her words, and it seemed that he had nothing to say. However, Li Xuyang noticed a problem, that is, what Zhao Rui said.
The first sentence "You men are always so indecisive", although this sentence does not seem to be problematic on the surface, but in fact, there are some problems when you think about it. "You men" is the best word for skepticism. The second sentence is "I will always meet a man with a negative heart", and the third sentence is "Let me be again and again..."
If "always" and "again and again" are connected, then Zhao Rui means that the first person she likes is not Li Xuyang but someone else. In conjunction with the phrase "negative man", that is, she has been in love, and it can even be said that she has talked about it more than once.
Zhao Rui is a delicate and well-behaved girl, and she has no scheming, let alone self-love, to the point of falling in love with others casually. And thinking about everything that the "Zhao Rui" in front of you said, you can draw a conclusion, that is, the woman in front of you who looks like Zhao Rui is not Zhao Rui.
Who is Zhao Rui, but not Zhao Rui? The figure is very similar, the age, I didn't see the face for the time being, and the tone of speech is also very similar.
"Wait, something isn't right. Li Xuyang looked at "Zhao Rui" who was still with his head down. Zhao Rui's voice is soft and delicate and has a very gentle feeling, and although this woman's voice is almost the same as Zhao Rui's voice, there is a kind of toughness or strength in the tone and tone. ”
"You're not Zhao Rui. Li Xuyang's tone became a little angry, and his voice raised a little.
"What did you say?" the "Zhao Rui" asked suspiciously.
"You resemble her, but you're not her. Otherwise, why don't you let me see your face?" Li Xuyang said, staring at her long black hair.
"Look at my face? What does my face prove? What you see is true? Is what you can't see fake? You're wrong, if I look up, you'll doubt yourself. Zhao Rui said with a little contempt.
"No matter who you are, no matter how much you're imitating, you're not her. Li Xuyang replied in the affirmative.
"Is it really as you said?" said this, "Zhao Rui" slowly raised his head. What caught Li Xuyang's eyes was a delicate face, who else could it be if it wasn't Zhao Rui's face?
"Huh?" Li Xuyang saw this, and he was so frightened that he took a step back.
"How is this possible? Could it be that I made a mistake in judgment?" Li Xuyang looked at "Zhao Rui's" face suspiciously, including every pore on her face, Li Xuyang looked very carefully, hoping to find a difference from Zhao Rui's face, but unfortunately he miscalculated.
There is no difference between this face and Zhao Rui's face, even if two look like twins, their similarity is only 90% at most. And the face in front of Li Xuyang is 100% similar to Zhao Rui's face, and nothing is different. Besides, Li Xuyang has only seen Zhao Rui a few times, and has not seriously observed Zhao Rui carefully, from his point of view, this person is Zhao Rui.
Although he knew the answer, Li Xuyang was still unconvinced, and still bit her not Zhao Rui. And she said, "Who the hell are you? Even though you two look alike, you're still not her." ”
"That's what you always thought, and I never admitted that I was the woman you said I was. This "Zhao Rui" said with a smile.
Li Xuyang didn't know what to say, and it was true that he was shouting the name of "Zhao Rui" with his mouth open and closed, but the woman in front of him never admitted that she was Zhao Rui.
"Then who are you, why do you want to imitate Zhao Rui's appearance?" Li Xuyang couldn't help but gasp when he thought of this. can imitate Zhao Rui's appearance, then it proves that this woman has seen Zhao Rui, could it be that Zhao Rui was given by this woman...
"Don't worry, I haven't seen the person named Zhao Rui in your mouth. "Zhao Rui" said as if he saw Li Xuyang's thoughts.
"Then where is she now? Who are you? Why are you here?" Li Xuyang asked three questions in a row.
"I don't know where she is, what kind of person I am, well, I can say I'm not human, I'm here because of your shouting. "Fake" Zhao Rui "answered Li Xuyang's questions in turn.
"You're not human, what is that?ghost?" asked Li Xuyang.
"No, I don't know what I am, but for thousands of years people have called us eye spirits. ”
Li Xuyang lowered his head and thought for a moment before he thought of the word. It is recorded in the "Funeral Man's Record" that the eye spirit is a kind of thing similar to a soul but not a soul. Like souls because they have no substance, they are all illusory. Unlike souls, because they are freer than souls, souls may be swept away by shadows, but they don't.
The earliest records of eye spirits are in the late Han Dynasty, and eye spirits often appear at that time. But they don't hurt people, let alone kill people, as if they are deliberately fulfilling people's wishes. For example, if someone closest to you dies suddenly, it can make you heartbroken. If you are keeping a vigil at night, you will hear unusual movements, and you may even see the faint, real and illusory figures of your loved ones. These are all because the eye spirit is doing tricks, so people have a kind of illusion that seems to be true but not real, and seems to be false but not false.
The earliest name of the eye spirit was the eye elf, and with the continuous change of the times, the name was gradually called "eye spirit". The word "sleep" means to fall asleep, and in combination with other words, it is seen when you are about to fall asleep. The explanation of the dream is that after falling asleep, I dreamed that I got what I wanted, which is also related to this sleepy elf.
