Today I was forced to resurrect again

The grandma who was talking to Gu Rong was wearing a white kitchen hat and a pure white chef's uniform, with a little red at the neckline, as if Grandma was wearing a red dress under the chef's uniform, and the red dress was still bounded with gold cloth Yes, some characters seem to be embroidered with gold thread on the red cloth, but most of the characters are hidden under the chef's uniform, only a few strokes are exposed, so people can only know that they are characters, but the specific characters are not known. It is not clear.

Gu Rong was still thinking about when the school invited such an old lady to be a chef here in Huanshan, and then heard the old lady replying to him with a smile: "The boss is going to the bathroom, I don't know when he will come back .”

Grandma still speaks with a bit of an accent. Gu Rong thinks her accent is very familiar. It seems that the driver of the sightseeing bus who took them around Huanshan yesterday had such an accent. However, the chefs here at the base are all from Huanshan, and it is normal for them to speak with a little accent. .

Gu Rong also saw a folding wooden table outside the canteen, on the table was an open pack of playing cards, and there were a few low stools beside it, probably people from the staff villa had played cards here, and it just happened to be sunny here, so Gu Rong took advantage of the situation and dragged out the chair to sit down, and said to Grandma: "Then I'll wait here for a while, I also basked in the sun just now."

Don't look at Gu Rong who swore to Shen Qiuji last night that he would stay alone in the base, with a heroic and generous appearance, in fact, after everyone left, Gu Rong stayed in the small garden of the villa, sitting in a sunny place Painting, because the warm sunshine can make him feel more at ease.

Although it was a time of day when the sky was bright and broad at the funeral last night, but Gu Rong compared the experiences of several encounters with evil spirits, and felt that bumping ghosts in the daytime was not as hopeless and frightening as in a closed environment, so I thought Anyway, if you are going to run into ghosts, you might as well stay in the sun.

Seeing Gu Rong sitting down and playing cards by herself, Grandma smiled and said nothing, then turned and went into the cafeteria.

Gu Rong waited for a few more minutes, but the owner of the commissary still didn't come back. He rubbed his aching stomach due to hunger, and looked at the various snacks and drinks in the commissary, thinking whether he should just Take a bag of potato chips to eat first, and he doesn't move around, just sit here, and pay the boss as soon as the boss comes back?

But it’s not like he’s dying of starvation. Good upbringing prevents Gu Rong from taking things from the store without paying for them. Meat, anyway, it's time to eat in the cafeteria, so it's okay to hold on for a while.

So Gu Rong started playing poker towers to pass the time again.

After he built a four-story poker tower that didn't fall down, he felt that he was lucky today: he didn't see any ghosts after staying alone for so long, and Shen Qiuji seemed to be fine with Xiaoyu on the road. Maybe Shen Qiuji guessed wrong. Yesterday It was pure accident that they were happy and mourning.

Thinking of this, Gu Rong's mood improved a lot. He took out his mobile phone and prepared to take a picture of the four-story poker tower as a circle of friends for "reporting safety" to his family today, but just as Gu Rong edited the text and wanted to send it to friends When he was in the circle, he realized that his mobile phone had no signal.

Is the signal in the base cafeteria poor?

Gu Rong frowned and pondered, he raised his phone up and down and compared it, but he didn't receive a signal, and a thought that sent a chill down his spine suddenly jumped into Gu Rong's mind - it seemed that every time he hit an evil, the signal was the same Poor.

Gu Rong froze in place. He was clearly standing in the sun, but for some reason, it was like an ice cellar. Layers of yin energy were like dead hands protruding from the ground, grabbing his ankles and dragging him to an invisible place. The abyss fell.

It was as if everything he was experiencing at this moment was an illusion. The real Gu Rong was slapped on the shoulder by those two golden boys and girls made of paper at yesterday's wedding and funeral, and then pushed into the coffin.

Gu Rong could almost see the coffin passing over the heads of the dutiful sons and grandchildren who bowed their heads and lowered their eyes and knelt together to make a way to the death. The pair of golden boys and girls stared at him with unreal black bean eyes at the mouth of the coffin, and stretched out a little more Little hands that made the sound of rubbing paper would come to pat him on the shoulder and ask him in unison: "This is the old lady's funeral, why don't you laugh?"

"This is the old lady's funeral, why don't you laugh?"

This sentence seemed to be Gu Rong's hallucination, and it seemed to be real in Gu Rong's ears. At the same time, someone really patted him on the shoulder: "Classmate."

"what--!"

Gu Rong was frightened, and instinctively called out, and after remembering the moves Shen Qiuji taught him, he began to pull out his hair crazily—however, he didn't know whether it was because his hands were weak or his hair roots were too tough to let go Because of this, Gu Rong pulled out seven or eight hairs in a row, and even scratched the neat hair into a mess, but he couldn't pull out a single hair. The hairs he pulled out were all cut off from the middle, without roots .

That voice sounded behind Gu Rong again: "Student... what are you doing?"

Gu Rongmu turned around slowly with a sullen face, and met Grandma's aging but not cloudy eyes. Grandma stared at him with wide open mouths, and kept raising her hands and patting her shoulders.

"...Grandma, were you the one who patted my shoulder just now?" Gu Rong looked at her in shock and asked.

"Yes." Grandma withdrew her hand nonchalantly, pointed to the cafeteria and said, "You said you were hungry, so I went and ordered a bowl of noodles for you first, and asked if you want to go in and eat?"

Gu Rong: "..."

It seems that he made too much fuss, Gu Rong stroked his chest and let out a long breath, calming his frantic heartbeat just now, after a short rest, his stomach started to growl again.

Before they came to Huanshan, they had already handed over the money for sketching, and they didn't need to spend extra money for board and lodging, so Gu Rong could eat the noodles that his grandmother cooked for him without any psychological burden.

Gu Rong was about to respond, and even he had already stepped up to walk into the cafeteria, but just a second before Gu Rong was about to step into the cafeteria, Gu Rong paused again, and he looked down at his raised foot Tip—one more step and he will leave the warm and bright sunlight, and enter a bright and spacious room, but it is an enclosed environment that he cannot leave if the door is closed.

So even if Gu Rong can now see that there are several male chefs in white chef clothes busy at the cafeteria window, Gu Rong dare not go in.

"Forget it, grandma." Gu Rong retreated awkwardly, sat at the folding table outside the canteen, rubbed the goosebumps on his arms, and made an excuse and said, "There is no air conditioner in the cafeteria, it's too cold. I wanted to eat outside in the sun, so I decided to buy instant noodles."

"Oh, you are still so young, why are you so afraid of the cold, be careful like I have gout when you are old." Grandma shook her head, sighed a few times, but didn't say much, turned around and went into the cafeteria again.

Gu Rong was sitting outside the cafeteria, sniffing the scent of noodles coming from inside. He felt a little stomach ache and felt aggrieved. He even felt that he was not far from going crazy. Maybe even if he didn't quit school, he should really take a break from school and go home to rest for a while. Otherwise, he has to observe carefully wherever he goes, and then repeatedly guess whether there will be ghosts in the fantasy, whether he will die, then how will he live normally in the future?

No, maybe he no longer has a normal life, what if he still sees ghosts when he gets home?If even at home can't give him enough sense of security?Then how will he survive?

Gu Rong pursed her lips, the more she thought about it, the more sad she became. Apart from being sad, she was still thinking about what was being cooked in the cafeteria. Why was it so delicious?And the smell is getting stronger and stronger...

It wasn't until a pair of hands that were as thin as old branches tremblingly appeared in front of Gu Rong holding the bowl of noodles, that he suddenly realized that it was Grandma who held out the bowl of noodles to him.

The bowl of noodles was deliciously cooked, with a few stalks of Shanghai cabbage, braised pork dumplings, and a soft-boiled poached egg on top.

Gu Rong raised his head and stared blankly at Grandma.

Grandma smiled at him kindly, wiped her hands on the apron, took out a pair of chopsticks from her pocket and handed them to him, and said softly: "Hurry up, there is still half an hour before the meal, I'm afraid You can't get hungry."

"Thank you grandma." Gu Rong's nose was a little sore, he blinked his eyes to not suppress the soreness, and his vision was still a little blurry.

Grandma smiled and didn't speak any more, she put down the noodles and went back to the cafeteria, Gu Rong lowered his head to eat the noodles, the warm noodles dispelled his hunger, and also dispelled the chill in his body.

After eating a bowl of noodles, Gu Rong was thinking about returning the bowl to the cafeteria, when he turned around, he saw grandma coming out with a big vegetable basket, as if she was planning to choose vegetables outside in the sun.

"Grandma, let me help you." Gu Rong went up to set a chair for her, and helped her put the vegetable basket on the ground.

But Grandma asked Gu Rong to put the chair and vegetable basket in the shade, pointed to her eyes and said, "Put it in the shade, my eyes are blurry, I don't want to see too harsh sunlight."

Gu Rong did as she wanted, and at the end she wanted to put away the bowls and chopsticks, but Grandma smiled and said, "Just put it there, I'll take it in with the vegetable basket later, it's cold in the cafeteria, aren't you afraid of the cold?" ?”

Gu Rong didn't have the nerve to tell Granny that he didn't dare to go in because he was afraid of ghosts, not because he was afraid of the cold, so he pinched his earlobe in embarrassment and said, "Then I'll help you choose vegetables."

"Okay." Grandma gave Gu Rong half of the vegetable leaves, and taught him how to choose vegetables, pinch off the roots and rotten leaves, and break the vegetables into several sections.

Although Gu Rong has never done this kind of thing since he was a child, it is very easy to learn how to do it. After a few minutes, his movements changed from being unfamiliar at the beginning to becoming proficient. His cleanliness will not flare up at this moment. It turns out that these are food that can satisfy the hunger, so there is nothing to dislike.

Grandma also chatted with him: "It seems that an old lady in the village went there yesterday. It was a funeral. She set up a stage in the square and was still talking about cross talk. It's very interesting. Why don't you go and see it? I see you a lot The classmates have all gone."

Gu Rong still has lingering fears about yesterday's happy and mourning scene, and said with a wry smile, "I'm a rabbit. I heard that the old lady is a rooster. My zodiac sign is in conflict with her. It's not good to go."

Grandma sighed and said: "Oh, yes, those grandchildren just love to make a fuss, and they should go away peacefully when they are happy or sad, but they scare people in the end. I really should let them come and apologize to you. I'm really sorry." .”

After eating a bowl of noodles from grandma, Gu Rong concentrated on choosing dishes all the time, trying to help grandma, but when grandma suddenly said such a strange sentence, the action of choosing vegetables paused slightly.

He couldn't help but move his gaze away from the vegetable basket and look at grandma.

Looking at it, Gu Rong found that Grandma was wearing a pair of red cloth shoes. The red cloth shoes were probably made of the same material as the red dress under her chef's clothes. They were made of satin and had an inconspicuous luster. Embroidered with the words "Fu, Lu, Shou".

Grandma's black trousers are also satin of the same material. Although there is no embroidery on them, they are printed with dark patterns of peony, fat fish, and Shouxing Gong. If you don't look carefully, you can't see it. Even ordinary people can see it. I don't think too much about it, I just think that grandma is wearing festive clothes.

But Gu Rong, who had read a lot of books to survive, could recognize at a glance that the clothes on Granny's body were shrouds.

The shroud is worn on the body of the dead.

Gu Rong's eyes widened. Even though he tried his best to hide his abnormality, his fingers still trembled slightly. He didn't dare to look up at the kind and kind grandma again, and only the sound of his heart beating like thunder and drums could be heard in his ears.

After the grandma said the sentence just now, she said "Oops", and she didn't know whether she was feeling that she had accidentally said something wrong and exposed her identity, or for something else, she diligently chose the last few vegetables in the vegetable basket and put them down, and then wrapped them around the chef's waist. He wiped his hands and said, "I wanted to help my classmate put the bowl and the vegetable basket in together, but the old man came to me and urged me to leave quickly. Are you not hungry now?"

Gu Rong was so timid that he couldn't even speak. He didn't know if there would be anything wrong with answering the ghost's question, so he shook his head stiffly as an answer, and belatedly remembered that he and this grandma had been chatting for a long time. up.

Grandma seemed very satisfied with his answer, she stood up and walked aside, her voice gradually faded away: "That's good if you're not hungry, my family hasn't asked me to cook for several years, it seems that I'm not as skilled as I am. rusty……"

So far there has been no more sound.

Gu Rong waited for a long time before finding anything else unusual before looking up and looking around. Grandma had disappeared. At this time, another man came out of the cafeteria, muttering, "Where's my lettuce? Someone stole it." Yet?"

When he came out, he saw a vegetable basket in front of Gu Rong. He wanted to reprimand Gu Rong for stealing his vegetables, but when he saw that the lettuce and vegetables in it were all selected, Gu Rong was still holding the last root in his hand. When the dish was good, his expression became kind, and he asked Gu Rong, "Student, did you help choose the dish? I thought I lost it."

Gu Rong put the vegetables back into the basket, and said truthfully with a dazed expression, "I and...a grandma chose the dishes."

The male chef scratched his head, his face full of surprise: "Is there an older lady in our base? I haven't seen one before."

When I saw you, I still wore a shroud. I have a good mental quality. You might have to wear a shroud when you saw me.Gu Rong thought.

The male chef carried the vegetable basket into the cafeteria.

Gu Rong remembered that there were still bowls of noodle bowls on the folding wooden table behind him that had been confiscated. He turned around and was about to ask the male chef to help him take away the bowls, but he really didn't dare to go into the cafeteria.

Unexpectedly, when Gu Rong turned his head, he saw a pair of familiar golden boy and jade girl paper figurines hiding under the table, and the hand of the jade girl sneaked into his pocket at some point. Seeing him turn around, the jade girl stopped. , and Jintong Qiqi looked up and stared at him with black bean eyes.

One person and two ghosts stared at each other in silence.

In the end, it was the jade girl who seemed to be doing something bad about pickpockets who spoke first: "Little brother, grandma asked me to apologize to you. I'm sorry. I'll treat you to... ah!"

It's good that she didn't speak, but when she spoke, she belonged to the ghost baby, and the gloomy and ethereal tone made Gu Rong feel goose bumps all over his body, and even his scalp was numb, not to mention the strange scream that was like a pain in the end from the jade girl.

But in this way, Gu Rong remembered that he still had the amulet Shen Qiuji gave him in his pocket, and Yu Nu probably touched the amulet.

So when Yunu stretched out her hand from Gu Rong's pocket, half of her arm had been burned off, leaving only her bare wrist at the cuff, her black bean eyes turned into tearful eyes, and she looked at Gu Rong with aggrieved eyes.

Gu Rong was more aggrieved than her, and even burst into tears with red eyes one step ahead of Yunu, and ran to the yard with two trembling legs.

Yu Nu stretched out her severed hand and called him, as if she was going to ask Gu Rong to settle accounts with her: "Little brother, don't run away..."

The golden boy also reached out to pull his collar.

Seeing this, Gu Rong ran even faster, but his feet were so weak that he lost his balance within two steps. He fell to his buttocks and sat on the ground, and then fell down the steps with a "kick, kick, kick" and grabbed the golden boy by his collar. Although he looks human, his body is still paper, and he was brought down the stairs by Gu Rong lightly, and even his voice was broken into pieces following the movement of Gu Rong's falling down the stairs: "You are running too fast... …Ah ah ah ah ah--"

They seem to be afraid of the sun. Gu Rong had been bathing in the sun before, so they just hid under the wooden table to avoid the sun. Now Gu Rong rolled the golden boy to the bottom of the sun. When Gu Rong stopped at the bottom of the steps, they finally stopped. When he fell, the golden boy would cry and scream "Grandma woo woo woo woo" and then rush to the shade in a more embarrassing posture than Gu Rong, hiding in the shade with the jade girl and not daring to come.

Gu Rong couldn't care less about his sore butt, and he didn't dare to look back at the two of them. He stood up and hurried to a place with more sunshine.

The things in his pockets fell out due to the violent running action, and the few particles that fell on the gray floor tiles were very conspicuous. Gu Rong slowed down and was about to take a closer look, but crashed into someone's arms .

The man was wearing a black coat, and his body only had the clean smell of lemon from washing powder. He hugged Gu Rong's shoulders with both hands, and said anxiously and worriedly in his tone: "Gu Rong, are you alright?"

Oh, this is Shen Qiuji's voice.Gu Rong heard it.

However, he was leaning against Shen Qiuji's arms at the moment, but his thoughts diverged for a while, wondering why Shen Qiuji's body now doesn't have the fragrance of cherry blossom scent of Lux shower gel?Later, I remembered that there was only Safeguard soap for bathing in the base dormitory, and there was no shower gel, so Shen Qiuji didn't smell good anymore.

After standing still, Gu Rong wiped away the physical tears from his face. He didn't want to cry, but Nai He couldn't control his eyes, and replied to Shen Qiuji, "I'm fine, hey, why did you come back? Lu Xiaoyu and the others Woolen cloth?"

Shen Qiuji saw that the young man's eyes were red and tears were streaming down his snowy cheeks. He didn't believe Gu Rong's words at all, held his face and frowned and said, "Are you crying like this for nothing? You still look like you are running for your life?"

"Damned again." Gu Rong said to him, "It's not like you don't know that I cry easily when I'm scared. In fact, I don't really want to cry..."

"Did you see a ghost again?!" Shen Qiuji raised his voice, as if he was more shocked than Gu Rong, and with some despair that he would never see Gu Rong again, he said hoarsely, "Then, you Are you leaving school?"

"Why don't you ask for some time off? You are in a special situation. I'll take you back to my house to find my Seventh Uncle to help you..."

"I won't retreat." Gu Rong wondered, since he wasn't dead, what was Shen Qiuji desperate for?But after he heard Shen Qiuji's last words, he had no time to pay attention to Shen Qiuji's despair, grabbed his arm and eagerly agreed, "Looking for your seventh uncle? Do you want him to help me see my fate? Yeah."

"Huh?" But Shen Qiuji talked to him differently, "Didn't you say that if you see hell again, you will drop out of school? Why don't you drop out?"

Gu Rong is actually still afraid now, no matter how amiable the grandmother in the shroud is, how well-behaved and lovable the pair of paper figurines who later apologized to him, and how funny the way they ran away in embarrassment, they also It's all ghosts.

But the feeling of fullness in his belly is real, because he ate the noodles cooked by his grandmother.

Gu Rong lowered his head and looked at the pink thing that just fell out of his pocket and fell on the ground - it was a few candies.

The previous action of Yunu should not be to steal his things, and Jintong stopped him not to kill him, but to give him candy to apologize, and her unfinished sentence was "I buy you candy" .

If he guessed right, that grandma might be the old lady who went to the fairyland, including the couple who came here this time to apologize for scaring him at the funeral yesterday.

Gu Rong had mixed feelings in his heart. He didn't know whether he should be afraid or put on other emotions. The experience of encountering ghosts this time was not as scary as before, but it still had a little... warmth?

So when Shen Qiuji asked, Gu Rong said what he was thinking: "...Because I suddenly discovered that not all ghosts seem to be so scary, maybe there are good ghosts too."

For example, Jiao Jiao in Mingxin Building, she didn’t actually hurt them in the end. The windows on the fourth floor were broken long ago, but in their eyes, the windows are unbreakable. That’s probably because Jiao Jiao covered their eyes, otherwise they would Someone really jumped from the fourth floor—she left them behind, but wanted to walk out of Mingxin Tower with them, but she didn't know that as long as she was there, no one could leave.

After listening to Gu Rong's words, Shen Qiuji retorted subconsciously: "What's so good about ghosts? They're all dead and still stay in the world—"

When Gu Rong raised his head to look at him, Shen Qiuji abruptly changed his words and said with a smirk: "—Maybe it's a last resort, maybe we should give them some understanding and care."

"..."

Gu Rong wiped away the tears, shook his head with drooping shoulders and said, "It's okay to understand, but it's fine to care."

The sudden concern of Grandma and Golden Boy and Jade Girl for him almost scared him to death.

However, this also allowed Gu Rong to affirm one thing: "I'm going to hell again when I'm alone, and I saw you in broad daylight. It seems that the previous few collisions were all because of myself, with you, and The city hospital, including the Mingxin Building of our school, has nothing to do with it, the real fuse is me."

There are legends related to ghosts in places like hospitals and teaching buildings. It is not unusual to see a ghost, but it is still broad daylight at the Huanshan Sketching Base where Xisang and seniors have personally confirmed that no strange things have ever happened. The situation is different in the ghost, Gu Rong thinks that this is probably because he can't bear the fate of the emperor, and he has caused evil troubles.

Gu Rong told Shen Qiuji all the things he had just experienced, and Shen Qiuji also said to him with a gloomy face after listening: "The three of you, Chen Jin, Xie Zihan and the others are very courageous. They watched it in the square this morning. For a half-day play, I wanted to let them try to see if there were any ghosts, so I didn’t stop them, but they really didn’t see any dirty things, and they were so fascinated by the show that they didn’t draw any pictures. You will talk to Lu Xiao at 11:30 After you sent the WeChat message, I stopped by to ask Xie Zihan what their genus is, Chen Jin and Lu Xiaoyu are fine, but Xie Zihan is actually the same age as you, and belongs to the rabbit like you."

But yesterday, Xie Zihan didn't turn around to avoid the funeral at all, and he didn't make any fuss, Gu Rong was the only one who made a fuss, and now it's not convincing to insist that Gu Rong has nothing to do with the past incidents.

After Shen Qiuji was shocked, he became afraid, and hurriedly asked Lu Xiaoyu to contact Gu Rong again, he was afraid that something would happen to Gu Rong alone in the base.

As a result, Lu Xiaoyu sent Gu Rong no matter how much he sent WeChat messages, but Gu Rong didn't reply, and he was not in the service area when he called. Shen Qiuji was worried and immediately rushed to the base, and the village and the base were about ten kilometers away. Shen Qiuji couldn't wait for the bus and ran back.

However, Gu Rong ran into a ghost today without any surprises, and was also tempered by the appearance of his grandmother with a bowl of noodles and the golden boy running away in a panic. In addition, he was mentally prepared for the fact that he had an inseparable relationship with himself when he encountered evil things. Now I don't care about being afraid, I just asked worriedly: "What? They didn't draw any pictures? Then don't you urge me, what will happen to our group results if we can't hand in homework at night?"

Shen Qiuji saw that Gu Rong was still dreaming about his group results, and it seemed that he had no intention of dropping out of school. His gloomy expression faded a lot, and he hugged Gu Rong to comfort him and said, "It's okay, there is still an afternoon. I heard from the subject that they will not put on the stage in the afternoon, so Chen Jin and the others should be able to concentrate on painting in the afternoon."

Gu Rong was not comforted, and looked at Shen Qiuji suspiciously: "What about you? Have you painted yet?"

Shen Qiuji put his fist to his lips and coughed twice: "The two cross talk masters invited by the owner, the cross talk on the stage is really funny..."

Gu Rong: "?"

Is this why you don't study hard?
