Soul knot

In the early morning of the Mid-Autumn Festival, all the guests left one after another, but the goblins in the bar got together.

For this Mid-Autumn Festival event, everyone who has been preparing for several days in a row finally has a little time to rest at this moment.

Gou Hongjie cut the remaining mooncakes into small pieces with a knife, mixed them with various colors and flavors and put them on a big flower plate, cut several kinds of fruits, put toothpicks on them, and put them on the table closest to the bar superior.

The goblins came over one after another, chatting and laughing, and ate the dessert before going to bed.

This group of goblins working in the bar is full of energy in the middle of the night, and Lu Yudong, who rests on time at school every day, is already so sleepy that he can't keep his eyes open.

After high school started, Manzhu accompanied her home early every week. It had been a long time since she played so late. It was almost before twelve o'clock, and her consciousness was already blurred, and she fell asleep on the table Wake up, as if you have gone through several reincarnations.

When Xiaozhi passed by the wine table in the corner earlier, she saw Lu Yudong sleeping, afraid that she would catch a cold, so she hurried upstairs to get a coat and put it on for her.

After finishing her work, Manzhu walked slowly to Lu Yudong's side, leaned over to Lu Yudong's ear, and said softly, "Yudong, you're home."

Lu Yudong opened a slit of his eyes, hummed in a low voice and rubbed his eyes.

When I woke up, my throat was dry and my voice was hoarse.

Manzhu put away the coat on Lu Yudong's body, took Lu Yudong's hand and walked to the bar, asked Yan Zhaomu for a bottle of coconut milk, handed it to her, then turned around and returned the clothes to Xiaozhi.

Lu Yudong drank a couple of sips of coconut milk, looked back at the extremely hot back, and took a look curiously.

Seeing Lu Yudong approaching, Huanxi immediately inserted a small piece of cantaloupe-flavored mooncake and brought it to Lu Yudong's mouth.

Lu Yudong opened her mouth and bit the mooncake off the toothpick. The mooncake was so sweet that even a small bite would not feel greasy. She squinted her eyes and smiled, and whispered, "Thank you sister Huanxi."

"Yudong eat this." Xiaozhi picked up a piece of mango, turned around, took it with the other hand, and carefully brought it to Lu Yudong.

Lu Yudong opened his mouth to eat another piece of mango. The mango was cut into larger pieces, and he ate it all over his mouth. He couldn't help but licked his lips with his tongue.

When Manzhu saw her, she took a wet tissue from the bar and went forward to wipe Lu Yudong's mouth.

"Go home and rest." Manzhu said.

Lu Yudong leaned against Man Zhu, and when he walked to the door of the bar, he turned around and waved to Zhao Mu, and then waved to everyone: "Goodbye, little master, goodbye everyone."

Yan Zhaomu nodded with a faint smile, and waved at her too.

"Yudong will come to play tomorrow." Huanxi said.

"Yeah!" Lu Yudong responded, and walked out of the bar with Manzhu.

On the deserted streets in the middle of the night, the cool wind of the end of the month blows, no matter how sleepy people are, they will inevitably be blown awake.

Lu Yudong held Manzhu with one hand and the long skirt with the other, dancing childishly on the grid on the ground.

Childish behavior seems to be contagious. Manzhu saw that Lu Yudong took every step to be separated by a grid, and he never stepped on the grid line. For a while, he subconsciously noticed the grid he stepped on every step.

Seeing Lu Yudong, he couldn't help laughing out loud.

Manzhu couldn't help being taken aback, and after recovering, she pinched Lu Yudong's face with a smile: "Okay, are you kidding me?"

"No!" Lu Yudong quickly defended, "I'm just happy, but I didn't expect...my sister would also step on the grid with me."

"Then why are you walking like this?" Manzhu asked.

"I don't know. I saw grids on the ground, so I wanted to leave like this." Lu Yudong said, and jumped three grids forward, almost tripping over the skirt.

Manzhu hurriedly supported Lu Yudong, Lu Yudong raised his eyes subconsciously, looked at Manzhu under the bright streetlight for a moment, and then smiled foolishly.

Lu Yudong, who was already quite tired, smirked all the way home. With the help of Manzhu, he let out his hair in a bun, changed into his pajamas, washed up casually, turned off the lights, and fell asleep next to the pillow.

After washing, Manzhu turned off the lights in the room, walked lightly to the bedside, looked at Lu Yudong's peaceful sleeping face, and raised her beautiful eyebrows.

***

The Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day holidays go by so quickly, almost in the blink of an eye.

On the night when Lu Yudong returned to school, Zhang Ziyun copied the homework assigned by the teacher during the vacation early in the classroom. Seeing Lu Yudong coming, he quickly pretended to be pitiful and tried to ask for help.

Lu Yudong couldn't bear to see that Zhang Ziyun couldn't turn in the homework, so he quickly took out his pen and started copying it for her.

The two started working together, until the evening self-study began, and the class representatives of various subjects began to collect homework, and then they almost finished writing.

Lu Yudong rubbed his sore wrists, and couldn't help but dislike her: "You piled up your homework until the last day again!"

Regarding this, Zhang Ziyun said straightforwardly: "Plans always fail to keep up with changes. In the face of difficulties, if you don't play with the speed of life and death, you always feel uncomfortable."

"I really won't help you next time, in case the teacher finds out..." Lu Yudong pouted.

Zhang Ziyun hugged her immediately, and said coquettishly, "Good tablemate, good sister, I know you are a good student, I won't dare next time, don't be angry!"

Lu Yudong pushed her away dumbfounded: "Okay, okay, the teacher is here."

Zhang Ziyun just got up from Lu Yudong and buried himself in the desk box to play with his phone.

The temperature dropped a little in October, and students who were afraid of the cold changed into autumn school uniforms early.

Seeing that the mid-term exam was coming, Lu Yudong took Zhang Ziyun to get up early every day to recite the texts and vocabulary with him, in order to make Zhang Ziyun's grades better this time, so that when the parent meeting was held in the class, Zhang Ziyun would not I was criticized by Zhang's mother again.

Zhang Ziyun is very smart and can learn everything quickly, but he never likes to study.

As early as in junior high school, her grades were always in the middle of the class, which was enough to show how lazy people are.

At first, when Lu Yudong dragged her to study like this, she cried almost every day, but after a few days she got used to this kind of study rhythm, and finally felt a little bit on the right track.

However, just two days before the mid-term exam, Zhang Ziyun, who was supposed to run to the cafeteria with Lu Yudong to grab a meal after school, suddenly had serious eyes, ran to the head teacher's office and issued a leave request and a leave notice, with red eyes left school.

Lu Yudong spoke a few words of concern on QQ, and only then did he know that Zhang Ziyun's father was hospitalized suddenly.

As for what happened, Zhang Ziyun didn't know what to ask, and Lu Yudong was afraid that he would make her anxious, so he didn't bother her too much.

When school was over in the afternoon, Lu Yudong sent two messages to Zhang Ziyun.

——Will you go back to school today?

——Do you want me to turn on the hot water for you at night?

After the evening self-study, Lu Yudong packed two bottles of hot water, sat on Zhang Ziyun's bed, soaked his feet in hot water, and sent two messages to Zhang Ziyun.

Lu Yudong: I have prepared hot water, you can use it directly when you come back.

Lu Yudong: If you don't come back, I'll wash the socks with this water at noon tomorrow, and we'll make new ones in the evening.

When he woke up the next day, Lu Yudong turned on his phone and took a look, but Zhang Ziyun still didn't reply.

After tidying up her own bed, she helped Zhang Ziyun straighten the quilt and sheets that no one had slept in overnight, then she put on her schoolbag and walked out of the dormitory with a small vocabulary book.

Before going out, Wu Anan poked his head out of the bed, squinted his eyes and looked at her, and asked, "Lu Yudong, Zhang Ziyun is not here today, do you want to go to the cafeteria with us in the afternoon?"

Living in the same dormitory, just having a meal, people have kindly invited them out, and it's not a big deal if they don't agree.

Lu Yudong nodded, walked out of the dormitory after saying "thank you", and closed the door gently with his backhand.

That noon, Lu Yudong went to the cafeteria for the first time to eat with the other three people in the dormitory. She was quiet the whole time, but the three sisters chatted very passionately. It was only a meal time, but they talked about three topics one after another.

Lu Yudong finished her meal and the three girls hadn't finished eating, so she sat aside and listened to their chatting.

At this moment, Wang Yan suddenly raised her eyes and asked, "Lu Yudong, what did Zhang Ziyun do? The mid-term exam is coming soon, and the exam room will be divided tonight. She is also sick, how did she get the leave?"

Lu Yudong frowned, feeling that Wang Yan's words were not very pleasant.

Wu Anan at the side heard this, and quickly smoothed things over: "What Wang Yan means is, is Zhang Ziyun coming back for the exam?"

Wang Yan nodded and said, "That's right, if you don't take the exam, you won't get a result. The next monthly exam, she will be assigned to the last exam room."

"Just go, I just missed the exam, and I didn't go because of poor grades." Lu Yudong said.

"I just care about it." Wang Yan said, smiled, and looked at Zhao Wen, "Her Zhang Hao is basically in the examination room, and if she is allowed to take the next monthly exam, she can pass the answer to Zhang Hao. Bring Zhang Hao up as well..."

Zhao Wen laughed after hearing this: "Would someone please remind Zhang Hao that as long as he turns in a blank paper this time, his exam room number will definitely be next to Zhang Ziyun's next month's exam."

Lu Yudong listened, and whispered: "They are not dating."

Wang Yan said: "Isn't it a matter of time? Zhang Hao is so rich and he is chasing after Zhang Ziyun. I think the two of them had signs at the Mid-Autumn Festival."

Zhao Wen echoed: "Yeah, if they are really together, we roommates, why don't we have a meal?"

Lu Yudong was silent for a moment, then got up and said, "I'll go back first, you guys eat slowly."

After finishing speaking, he turned and walked towards the bedroom.

Wu An'an yelled twice behind her, and seeing that she didn't want to turn around, she didn't say anything more.

"Things of a kind flock together, and people are divided into groups." Wang Yan rolled her eyes, "This Lu Yudong is just like Zhang Ziyun, he has a very weird temper, the only difference is that Zhang Ziyun is more fond of those boys in the class."

"Banhua's follower, how fierce is it?" Zhao Wen said.

Wang Yan smiled: "Who judges the class flower? An An is no worse than Zhang Ziyun, she just doesn't like dealing with those boys."

Wu Anan shook his head: "Okay, okay, don't talk about it, they are all roommates, don't hold such big prejudice..."

Wang Yan said: "Isn't it Zhang Ziyun's prejudice against us first? That guy's defiant look in the dormitory is annoying to see. I really hope she asks for leave and asks for a longer time, so that she can spend less time watching her."

Zhao Wen made a gesture of silence: "You don't have a crow's mouth."

Wang Yan immediately covered her mouth exaggeratedly.

To say she has a crow's mouth is really a crow's mouth.

He didn't want to see Zhang Ziyun, so Zhang Ziyun came back from off-campus study that night.

Lu Yudong had just finished dinner in the cafeteria by himself, and when he returned to the classroom, he saw Zhang Ziyun lying on his stomach.

"Zhang Ziyun? Are you asleep?" She stepped forward and patted Zhang Ziyun's back lightly.

Zhang Ziyun sniffed and raised his head, his eyes were bloodshot from exhaustion.

Lu Yudong couldn't help being taken aback, and hurriedly sat down beside her, stroking her back, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong? Uncle, he...is he alright?"

The moment Zhang Ziyun heard Lu Yudong's question, he immediately threw himself into her arms, his voice choked up.

At this point, there were not many people in the classroom, so it was very quiet.

Zhang Ziyun cried fiercely, with snot and tears, he was a little slurred.

Several students in the classroom heard the commotion here, and leaned over curiously. Everyone gathered around Zhang Ziyun, listening to her crying and coughing, stuttering intermittently, and even saying a few words incoherently. .

She said that her father was in a car accident on the highway on a business trip, and the driver of another car died on the spot. There was no relative at home. Her father was seriously injured and was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment.

She didn't know what was going on with her father, and she kept watch all day, but there was no result.

The doctor told her mother that her father was still in danger, and the medical expenses were conservatively estimated to be in the millions.

Her mother held her and cried for a long time. She didn't understand what all this meant. She only knew that her mother had been crying for a long time, and she couldn't help crying along with her, her mind was full of wild thoughts.

Finally, my mother calmed down and told her that she would be fine and asked her to go back to school and study hard, and there will be a new message from my father in a few days.

She said she was so scared, so scared for the first time.

The students around were all comforting Zhang Ziyun, but comforting words were often the most useless.

From that day on, Zhang Ziyun has been absent-minded.

In the mid-term exam, she got a very bad grade. If it was in the past, she would definitely worry about this grade, cry, and worry about being criticized and educated by her parents.But this time, she didn't care about her grades at all.

Lu Yudong felt that it was only a few days, but Zhang Ziyun seemed to be a lot haggard, his whole body was listless, and he talked less and less.

The head teacher learned of Zhang Ziyun's difficulties, and organized a donation in the class, and the teacher also participated in it, but how much money can the students have?In the end, the fundraising was only in the early four figures, which was just a drop in the bucket when faced with the huge medical expenses.

Lu Yudong accompanied Zhang Ziyun, but he couldn't say a word of comfort. He just took out the money that he secretly saved for a long time with Manzhu on his back from his schoolbag.

Fourteen hundred is already all of her.

Zhang Ziyun didn't want to accept it, but in the end he couldn't win over Lu Yudong.

She hugged her knees, sat in the corner of the playground, choked up and whispered, "I will pay it back."

***

In early November, the weather in Yuanchuan City was getting cooler and cooler.

Ten days have passed since Zhang Ziyun's father got into a car accident.

In the past ten days, Zhang Ziyun's father has never been out of danger. He has undergone two major operations, and the various expenses have cost more than 30 yuan. The follow-up treatment is even more bottomless.

This family, which has just paid off the car loan and housing loan for a few years, and has always had high requirements for the quality of life, has not been able to save much savings. A sudden car accident, like a nightmare, haunts the couple who are still awake day and night. mother and daughter.

In order to raise funds for the initial surgery, Zhang Ziyun's mother was eager to find a buyer, and sold the family car, but the exchange was only 10,000+. After the second surgery, there was not much left.

Except for a few relatives who were not rich at all, no one dared to lend them money.

Because Zhang's father is the pillar of the family, his income is much higher than that of Zhang's mother, but now that he has suffered such a serious injury, even if he is rescued, he will still be a paraplegic, and he can no longer take care of himself.

They can't afford it, or at least most people think they can't.

Zhang's mother thought about selling the house, but it was not easy to find a buyer in a short time, and those who were willing to bid were all taking advantage of the fire.

This house is her last hope to save that man. She is already deeply in debt, and she absolutely cannot sell the house at that price, otherwise she will no longer be able to afford the subsequent treatment expenses.

Seeing that the third operation could not be delayed any longer, the house could not be sold, and the operation fee was still [-] yuan short, despair was like a tall building collapsing, and it instantly crushed the mother who was working hard in front of her daughter.

Later, on a night that was no different from usual, Zhang Hao found Zhang Ziyun after the evening self-study.

He asked Zhang Ziyun how much money was short, and he was willing to lend it to her.

Zhang Ziyun seemed to have caught a life-saving straw, and said the number with red eyes - [-].

She knew that it was ridiculous to borrow so much money from a classmate, but she was already in a hurry to go to the doctor.She thinks the same as her mother, no matter what method is used, first raise enough money for the third operation, buy more time, find a less unscrupulous buyer to sell the house, and talk about it later.

This number is obviously a bit big for a student, but Zhang Hao hesitated for a while, and finally agreed to her, saying that he would find a way to get the money from his father as soon as possible.

Two days later, Zhang Hao actually handed over the [-] promised that night to Zhang Ziyun.

The mother and daughter originally thought this was a turning point, but they didn't expect that the man died two days after the third operation.

As if he didn't want to drag his family down any longer, he walked very quietly.

Zhang Ziyun didn't come to school for a week, and Lu Yudong didn't dare to send her any messages for a week.

She understands the feeling of losing a loved one.

If there is any difference between what happened to her and Zhang Ziyun, it would probably be that... the moment she opened her eyes, she saw darkness, but Zhang Ziyun had obviously run towards the light for so long, suffered all kinds of suffering, and finally broke into the boundless darkness.

On the weekend, when Lu Yudong came home, Manzhu asked her how Zhang Ziyun's father was doing. She just lowered her head and whispered, "No more."

Manzhu was at a loss for words, and after a long silence, she pulled Lu Yudong to sit beside her, and said softly, "It will pass, she is a very strong girl, and her mother will always be with her."

Manzhu knew that Zhang Ziyun was Lu Yudong's best friend, and Lu Yudong cared about that child very much.

She asked Mu Shenshan if there was any way to save that human being, but the answer she got was cruel.

"The body of an ordinary human can't bear the demon power at all. If you use magic to save him, it will only speed up his death."

"It's not impossible to save him, the premise is that there is a goblin who is willing to form a soul bond with him, just like you and Lu Yudong did - use the goblin body to endure the terrible pain for him, and turn him into a half goblin from now on .”

"But you should know that not everyone is as lucky as Lu Yudong to meet you who is willing to bond with her."

Yes, if there is no other choice, no goblin is willing to form a soul with an ordinary human.

It was a burden, a lifetime and extremely fragile burden.

Manzhu has no way to find a goblin who is willing to help, she doesn't want to, and can't force any goblin in this kind of thing.

Therefore, Manzhu can only comfort and comfort Lu Yudong, telling her that everything will pass.

Lu Yudong is a girl who has experienced that kind of thing, so she knows better than anyone that time can dilute everything.

She leaned on Manzhu's shoulder in a daze for a while, and suddenly she couldn't help raising her head, and asked in a very low and thin voice: "At that time... how much did my sister save me?"

Manzhu said: "This is not important."

Lu Yudong asked: "It must be a lot?"

Manzhu didn't answer her, but she knew that she was in a coma for so long, and it took a long time to get out of bed after waking up. No matter whether there was a demon body protection or not, no matter how fast and how well the injury recovered, it was a medical miracle. The three-month hospitalization fee alone is enough to overwhelm many families who are not wealthy.

What's more, a monster who came from deep in the mountains and had no savings?

"My sister must have that much money, and my family doesn't have a house, so I can't repay the debt..." Lu Yudong took Manzhu's finger, raised his eyes and asked seriously, "Is it the little uncle? The little uncle helped you."

Manzhu nodded. Lu Yudong didn't have any idea about these before, but now it's different. She couldn't hide it even if she wanted to.

"Sister, how much do you still owe little uncle?" Lu Yudong asked softly.

Her eyes are very stubborn, as if she must get this answer, no matter whether it makes sense or not.

Manzhu recalled it for a while, and hesitated: "Three...Three to three hundred thousand?" She really couldn't remember the exact value.

Mu Shenshan gave her a salary of [-] a month, which was already higher than that of everyone in the bar except Yan Zhaomu, so one could imagine how high the proportion of favors was.

But even if the monthly salary is [-], half of the payment will be deducted and half will be deducted, and the monthly repayment will be [-]. The original debt is enough for her to pay for seven or eight years.

For the past three years, Mu Shenshan has been keeping the accounts, and Manzhu has assumed that her monthly salary is only [-], and she really didn't care too much about the debt issue.

"It's okay, your little uncle never urges you, we pay back a little every month, and it will be paid off in a few years..." Manzhu didn't want Lu Yudong to blame herself too much for this, she pinched Lu Yudong's palm , smiled slightly, "Look, don't we have a good life too?"

Lu Yudong was silent for a moment, then lay sideways on Manzhu's lap, and stopped talking, but his mood was hard to calm down for a long time.

What she owed Manzhu turned out to be far beyond her imagination.

"elder sister……"

"Ok?"

"I'll let you live a good life..."

In that year, the child who was under sixteen was lying on the person he was most attached to in his life.

Very seriously, talking about a promise about a lifetime.
