Out of the lion

Wu Shuai walked deep into the alley and stopped at the stairs.

Nan Xun timidly grabbed the corner of Lin Xiaoxi's clothes, poked half of his head out from behind Lin Xiaoxi, and glanced at the stairs.

It was terrible, as if a scary beast would emerge from the darkness at any time.

Lin Jiu shook the mud off his feet and snorted, apparently very upset.

Wu Shuai climbed the stairs with ease, and Lin Xiaoxi cautiously followed behind.

I don't know how long it took to climb, Nan Xun was a little out of breath, and Wu Shuai finally stopped.

Probably because he was too tired from climbing, Lin Jiu's fists were not clenched as tightly as before.

In the darkness, four figures stood in front of a door.

dong dong...

Wu Shuai knocked on the door.

At this moment, Old Man Lin and Aunt Yun walked into the arcade alley through the night.

"You son of a bitch, we must clean them up!" Old man Lin was full of anger.

Aunt Yun has no energy to speak, and now she just wants to use the little energy left to breathe.

Finally, she took advantage of the night to find a chair and sat on it.

Old man Lin was too tired, so he said to Aunt Yun, "Can you find me one, at least I have just had a serious illness, take care of me."

Aunt Yun didn't care about him at all.

Seeing that Aunt Yun ignored him, old man Lin complained unhappily: "I won't cherish it once I get it."

This ray of anger forced old man Lin to push open the door, and went to settle accounts with Lin Xiaoxi and the others.At the beginning, he spent all his savings to buy this pickup truck in order to be able to pick up his three siblings after school.Fortunately, these guys drove the car away and ignored him completely.Even letting him sit on the cargo bucket is fine, he has no conscience.

As soon as the old man entered, he yelled, "Lin Jiu, come out!"

It was pitch black ahead and there was no sound.

"Lin Xiaoxi!" Old man Lin shouted at the top of his voice, but still didn't get the slightest response.

"Nan Xun?" Old Man Lin called out tentatively, but he still didn't get any response.

"Pretending to be deaf, right?" Old man Lin went to the kitchen angrily, and brought a basin of cold water.

Although Hainan is a place without winter and can only switch between hot and warm modes, it is still very cool after nightfall.Few people can bear a basin of cold water.

Old man Lin entered Lin Jiu's room with cold water.

"Lin Jiu, get up by yourself, otherwise, I won't be polite to you!" Old man Lin said to the empty bed.

"Okay! Are you still pretending to be deaf? Let's see how I deal with you." As he spoke, he was about to pour out the cold water in the basin.

Suddenly, with a flash in front of her eyes, Aunt Yun turned on the light switch at the door, "It seems that you haven't come back yet, what are you shouting at the top of your voice? You are really energetic."

Old man Lin looked at the empty bed, then at the clock on the wall, "It's already twelve o'clock, why haven't you come back yet? Where have you been?"

Aunt Yun frowned and thought for a long time, then she suddenly looked terrified, "The old lady passed away today, and she was very angry, maybe..."

Before she finished speaking, she felt a pain in her forehead, and old man Lin tapped her forehead lightly with a chestnut.

"You old man, you talk as soon as you speak, why are you still moving?" Aunt Yun rubbed her forehead.

Old man Lin said: "You are not young anymore, why are you superstitious and engaged in metaphysics all day like a child?"

Aunt Yun felt aggrieved: "I mean, will something happen to them?"

Old man Lin was worried about this, but he didn't say it out loud.

Aunt Yun is straightforward and uneasy, so she said it directly: "When they danced the lion today, I saw a lot of people were jealous of them, that's called jealousy. Thinking about it, it's right, Hainan is so big, and the dancers are so big. There are so many lions, but there are not many who can dance the 'Xingyi Eighteen Ling' so well, right?"

"I also heard that the last time they participated in the lion dance competition, the reason why they fell from the golden pagoda was that someone deliberately tampered with it. This time they couldn't make any moves because of the old lady's birthday, but they took advantage of the end of the lion dance Then touch the dark and start?"

"Old man, tell me something, will they be in danger?"

The more old man Lin listened, the more anxious he became, his brows were furrowed.Seeing that Aunt Yun took out her mobile phone to call Lin Jiu, he also quickly took out her mobile phone to call Lin Xiaoxi.

"Sorry, the person you are dialing is switched off."

When old man Lin heard this voice, he suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.He looked at Aunt Yun. The situation on Aunt Yun's side was similar, and the response he got was: "Sorry, the user you dialed is temporarily unavailable."

"Call Nan Xun." Aunt Yun said to Old Man Lin.

Old man Lin quickly searched out Nanxun's mobile phone and dialed it.

"Sorry, the person you are dialing is switched off."

Three people, three mobile phones, but none of them can be contacted.

What the hell is going on?
The more old man Lin thought about it, the more creepy he felt, he turned around and walked out of the house.

"Where are you going?" Aunt Yun asked.

"Where else can I go? Find them." Old man Lin replied in a muffled voice.

Aunt Yun looked worriedly at the dense night outside the door: "The sky is so big, where can I find it?"

Old man Lin said: "It's better to go out and look for it than to be scared at home."

"Don't follow, wait at home, in case they come back."

In fact, Aunt Yun could tell that old man Lin was worried that something would happen if she followed her.

"When they came back and saw that we were not there, they would naturally find a way to contact us." Aunt Yun caught up with old man Lin in two or three steps.

As soon as the two walked out of the gate, they saw a black luxury business car parked at the gate.A young man got out of the car.

They recognized this young man as Jiang Chu who was always by Li Mo's side.

Jiang Chu held an exquisite insulated food box in his hand. After saying hello to the two elders, he handed over the food box and said, "This is what Xiaoxi likes to eat. I forgot about it before. If I keep it until tomorrow, the taste will be gone." It’s not that fresh anymore, so I’m sending it here now. I’m really sorry to disturb the two of you who are resting.”

Old man Lin was very surprised. He didn't have a good impression of Jiang Chu before. He always felt that this young man was too indifferent, so he was always vigilant.As for the Li Mo and Li Dong he protected, he was also as indifferent as frost, as if separated from the world by a thick wall.Probably the old man Lin and Lin Xiaoxi and the others have been together for a long time, so they prefer this kind of life-like look.

but!

It's not surprising that there are many people who are so polite, they are so far away, they leave a lot of tedious affairs and carelessly take care of them, and even send food over, just because Xiaoxi likes it...

The old man was so moved that he accepted the delicious food gratefully, and at the same time humbly rebuked Xiaoxi: "That child is the reincarnation of a greedy cat, thank you for your hard work."

Jiang Chu felt that the old man's words were very appropriate, so he couldn't help laughing, and asked by the way: "Is Xiaoxi already asleep? You have worked hard for her today."

Seeing that the old man and Aunt Yun were worried, Jiang Chu felt ominous, and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?"

"Xiaoxi hasn't come back yet." Aunt Yun said with a sigh.

"Why?" Jiang Chu said with vigilance in his heart, "We, Mr. Li Mo, were worried that Xiao Xi would be punished if he came back too late, so we urged her to go home first and contact her when needed."

Thinking of what Lin Xiaoxi did today, Jiang Chu was very moved.When mentioning her, there is also two points of respect in the words.

Aunt Yun said: "Yes, we saw them drive away with our own eyes. We walked all the way back because we didn't have a car. We all walked home. Why haven't they driven back yet?"

Jiang Chu took out his mobile phone and made a call: "Xiaoxi and the others haven't come home yet, go find them and see where they went."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Chu comforted the two elders: "Don't worry, we will definitely find a way to find Xiaoxi."

Aunt Yun clasped her hands together and prayed to the Sifang Bodhisattva: "I hope Xiaoxi will never have anything to do, Bodhisattva bless you, Bodhisattva bless you."

After thinking about it, old man Lin said, "It's all my fault. She shouldn't be allowed to touch what she shouldn't. Now that she's getting into trouble, I'm really anxious to death."

"What are you talking about?" Aunt Yun was confused.

Old man Lin said: "Xiaoxi told me about the Huajin lion dance team before. Many of the lion dance moves they performed in the lion dance competition and the old lady's birthday banquet came from Huaxi Town."

"Huaxi Town is where Xiaoxi lived before the accident. She wanted to find out the truth, so she followed the Huajin Lion Dance Team."
