Chapter 50: Fear of the Dark and Not Fear
After leaving the school gate, the students who returned home began to diverge, some went to take the bus, some went to take the subway, and some walked back along the main road.
And Yang Qing and Lou Xiao held hands and came to a small alley, this kind of small alley with a long ladder is a characteristic of a mountain city. Walking up the road can lead directly to the community where they live, and if you have to take the main road, you have to take a big detour.
The trail is close, but the downside is that it may not be safe. Because there are not many people walking here, and the lighting facilities are very poor, there is only a small light after a long distance, and it is difficult to even look at the road. Not to mention encountering bad guys, it is possible to fall with a foot on an empty ladder.
In the evening, there are still some stalls on the road, and there are some people coming and going. But by nine o'clock in the evening, the people who set up the stalls had already closed their stalls, and there would not be a few pedestrians on the road. Yang Qing raised his head and looked from afar, only to see a black figure on the ladder, and other than that, the only pedestrians on this path were him and Lou Xiao.
Yang Qing took Lou Xiao's hand and remembered the interesting story when he was in junior high school. He shook Lou Xiao's hand and asked with a smile, "Eh, were you afraid of the dark when you were a child?" ”
"Don't be afraid, I'm a staunch materialist, I don't believe in these cows, ghosts, gods and snakes at all, how can I be afraid of the dark? Look at the question you asked, look down on me, don't you? Lou Xiao replied with a righteous face.
"Oh, don't pretend, what's wrong with being afraid of the dark, and there's no shame. I remember when I was in junior high school, I was scared to walk on this path, and the broken road was so bad that there were not a few lights, and it was so dark that I was always worried that a monster would come to catch me. Yang Qing said.
"Uh-huh, and then what?" Lou Xiao shook Yang Qing's hand and asked.
Then I rushed up with all my might, and kept rushing, and rushing, and waiting, and only when I got out of the alley did I dare to stop and kick my breath. At that time, I also fantasized that there was an enchantment at the intersection, and that the monster wouldn't be able to catch me if I got out of it, haha. Of course, I'm definitely not afraid now, but it's kind of interesting to think about the past. ”
This is a lie, in fact, until before the crossing, Yang Qing was a little afraid to walk this road alone, but he would not be as scared as he was to run wild on the road as before. However, now that he is holding Lou Xiao's hand, he has a sense of security, and he is not afraid at all.
"Haha." Lou Xiao couldn't help but smile when she heard Yang Qing talk about her troubles in junior high school.
Although the relationship between the two has been very good and they have been together for a long time, she still rarely listens to Yang Qing talk about what happened before he crossed over. And although she was very curious about Yang Qing's life before the crossing, she was afraid that she would arouse Yang Qing's nostalgia for his family, so she didn't dare to take the initiative to ask.
Today, she finally waited for Yang Qing to talk about it, and she naturally wanted to hear more about him, so she pinched Yang Qing's fingers and asked, "Then are you afraid of the dark when you sleep alone?" ”
"To be honest, I was a little scared when I was a child, I didn't dare to show my hands and feet under the bed when I was sleeping, and once I was a little bit exposed, I was worried that monsters would come to catch me."
Lou Xiao smiled again when she heard this, and said, "What's the use of you hiding in the quilt, if there is really a monster, can that small quilt help you stop it?" ”
"You know what a fart, there are rules in the monster world, you can't attack people hiding in the bed, otherwise you will be eaten by the rules."
"What kind of rule is this?" Lou Xiao said with a smile, and then asked, "Then what should you do when you go to the toilet, then you have to get out of the bed." ”
"Heh, as long as I go to the toilet fast enough, the monster can't catch up with me. At that time, I used to run to the bathroom as fast as I could, and then I ran back to get into the bed, and it felt like I was racing against monsters. ”
Maybe it's because of the cross interlocking with Lou Xiao, which really makes Yang Qing feel very relieved, he is in a very good mood now, and he doesn't mind sharing the little secret he has hidden for many years with Lou Xiao. Anyway, I'm the same as her, I'm afraid of the dark, she must be afraid too, there's nothing to be ashamed of, and we can talk about it together and be happy.
"Hahaha."
Lou Xiao laughed happily after hearing Yang Qing's words, and let out a crisp laugh like a silver bell.
"What are you laughing at, aren't you the same, what's so funny?"
Seeing Lou Xiao smiling so happily, Yang Qing was unhappy and pinched her smooth little hand. I said this to make you laugh, why are you laughing so loudly, it feels like you're laughing at me.
"I'm the same as you, I'm not afraid of the dark, you can't tarnish people's innocence out of thin air." Lou Xiao retorted.
"Hey, don't pretend. We're the same, I'm both afraid of the dark, how can you not be afraid? Yang Qing tried to expose Lou Xiao's disguise.
"This also depends on the situation, although we are the same, but you are a boy, I am a girl, this is still different. I'm a big woman, how can I be afraid of the dark? But you're a boy, it's normal to be afraid of the dark, and I won't laugh at you. Lou Xiao said.
Then she raised the hand held by the two again, held it tighter, and said gently: "And you don't have to be afraid now, I will protect you." ”
"Good."
Lou Xiao reached out and wanted to touch Yang Qing's head, showing his girlfriend's strength.
"Get out."
But Yang Qing didn't eat his set, and slapped her hand away. He's very angry now, buddy digging out your heart with you, you and buddy are playing with your heart, right?
Made, I told this because I wanted the two of us to talk and laugh together, but you still served it. A big woman on her mouth, not afraid of the dark, not afraid of the dark, in fact, you don't dare to watch a horror movie alone.
But Lou Xiao had to die with a hard mouth, and Yang Qing couldn't do anything about her, he didn't expect Lou Xiao to have such a good face and hold it in front of him.
Lou Xiao saw that Yang Qing's face was black and he didn't speak, so he bumped into him lightly.
"What?"
"Oh, don't be angry. I'll admit it, I'll admit it, I'm a little bit afraid of the dark. But I'm certainly not as scared as you, I'm only a little scared. And as long as I fantasize in my mind that I am the Emperor of the Wild Sky or something, I am not afraid at all, and when the monster comes, I directly slap it and destroy it. ”
"Huh."
Yang Qing was amused by Lou Xiao, and when it came to this, he actually had to hold on to saying that he was not afraid of the dark.
But there's really nothing to do with her now, I can only say that this little girl is really undertrained, and she has to work harder in the future.
