Mr hell

Chen Mingqian was not in his room.

The sense of uncertainty in Huai Qi's heart became more and more intense, until he slowly opened the door of Ting Xiaoya's room, and the scene of worry in his heart appeared before his eyes.

Ting Xiaoya was probably tired, she lay down on the bed and fell asleep without changing her clothes.And Chen Mingqian stood straight in front of the bed, facing the girl.

Chen Mingqian had a fruit knife in his hand.The sound of the door opening attracted him, and he slowly turned his head towards the leaking door, his eyes were lifeless.

Before Wen Qian left, Huai Qi who was beside him rushed over before him.This was beyond Wen Qian's expectation, he stretched out his hand and said "Hey", and was surprised to see Huai Qi grabbed Chen Mingqian's hand holding the fruit knife, and locked his arms tightly.

Chen Mingqian didn't struggle during the process, he just stared at Huaiqi in a daze, and as soon as he was dragged out of the door, Huaiqi said in a trembling voice: "Master Daoist, hurry up..."

At this time, Chen Mingqian suddenly turned to Wenqian like a frightened cub, grinning fiercely and wrinkling his teeth, sucking air between his teeth and hissing.

His strength increased sharply, and he waved the knife in his hand chaotically towards Wen Qian, his fingers almost digging into the flesh of Huai Qi's arms, Huai Qi couldn't hold him firmly, and staggered to the ground with him.

And the bell in Wen Qian's hand rang.Chen Mingqian seemed to be placed in a big bell that had been hit for an instant, his ears rang for a moment, and his crazy movements slowed down.

Huai Qi saw fear on his face, like a deer being hunted, panicked and lost its composure under the pressure of the ringtone.

But in this state, Chen Mingqian made a move that surprised Huaiqi—he broke free from Huaiqi's embrace, pressed his back against Ting Xiaoya's door, stretched his limbs to protect the door tightly, and still clenched his arms tightly. The small folding fruit knife let out a mournful low growl in its throat.

He looked at Huai Qi, as if asking for help.This made Huai Qi stunned for a moment.

In a blink of an eye, Wen Qian had already wiped a golden streak on Chen Mingqian's brow.His movements and demeanor seemed to break away from his physical body in an instant, and fell into a void.And Wen Qian reached out and grabbed the transparent, dark soul that flowed out from the sand point between Chen Mingqian's eyebrows.

His big hands held the boy ghost's collar like a kitten.He shook his hand, and with some unknown technique, the ghost became smaller, and then it was thrown into a glass bottle with a yellow talisman on the body by Wen Qian, and the cork was plugged.

"Okay," Wen Qian said lightly, "This is the first time a child has possessed himself, so it's easy to deal with and not too harmful."

"..."

Huai Qi, who was still in shock, helped Chen Mingqian who was unconscious, and sat down in front of the door panting heavily.

Wen Qian also squatted down, turned Chen Mingqian's calf, and tore off a band-aid on his calf.The blood on the surface of the small wound turned out to be golden, but it was much darker than the color of Wen Qian Dian Sand.

"This is the characteristic after being drilled by a ghost." Wen Qian said, "It will return to normal after a while..." He looked at Huai Qi, gave him a "tsk", and handed him a stack of tissues in his pocket. Said: "Take care of your arm."

Only then did Huai Qi realize that there was a lot of blood on his left arm, probably from being scratched by a fruit knife when he stopped Chen Mingqian just now.

Huai Qi whispered, "Thank you."

"Unexpectedly," Wen Qian raised his eyebrows and said, "Someone said you were timid, but I think you were very brave just now."

In fact, Huai Qi didn't erase the fear, his hands that wiped the blood were still trembling, and the strong stamina made his jaw and scalp numb.He said, "I didn't..."

When he saw Chen Mingqian holding a knife in front of Ting Xiaoya's bed, his subconscious desire for protection overcame his fear, and when he came back rationally, he found that he had already rushed over.

At that time, he just wanted to protect his brother and sister, and he didn't have time to take care of other distracting thoughts.

"But the possessed Mingqian didn't hurt Xiaoya." Instead, his actions were like "desperately protecting his sister." Huaiqi looked at Chen Mingqian's tightly closed eyes and recalled, "And he doesn't seem to care about me. Be on guard, but for you..."

"Because I am a dangerous outsider in his eyes." Wen Qian said with a smile, "and you are someone they trust."

Hearing what he said, Huai Qi thought of that "brother Xiao Huai" again.

"Is it related to his life experience?" Huai Qi looked at the little boy in the glass bottle and asked.

"It should be said that it is related to the three of them." Wen Qian looked around and said, "Have you seen?" Where is his sister? "

Huai Qi frowned.Today he only saw the ghost of the boy and the ghost of the woman in white—the latter just heard the sound of knocking on the window, so he didn’t count as seeing it with his own eyes, but he guessed it must be her—but he didn’t see the ghost of the girl who had been walking with the little boy. .

Huai Qi shook his head.He looked down at the little boy in the bottle, maybe he knew that he was also "protecting", the empathy ability gave Huai Qi some sympathy and compassion, and dispelled a little fear.He said, "Can you give him to me?" I won't let it out. "

"Of course." Wen Qian handed him the bottle, and said, "The key to exorcising ghosts is to follow his will, let nature take its course. His purpose is to come to you."

Fatigue is a bug that moves in the dark. The deeper the night, the more unscrupulous they crawl out from the depths of the body, biting every inch of human skin.It was already early morning when Huai Qi realized that his eyelids were being dragged by sleepiness.

He moved Chen Mingqian back to the room and settled it down. To ensure everything was safe, he asked Wenqian to check the whole house, and specially did a trick for Ting Xiaoya and Chen Mingqian to make sure everything was correct.Huaiqi thanked the priest when he sent him off.

Wen Qian stretched out his hand to him: "You're welcome, use money to do things. My bill for exorcising ghosts is hourly."

"..." Huaiqi looked at his palm and fell into an embarrassing silence. He asked for Wenqian's contact information, then lowered his head and said, "Can I transfer it to you online later?I don't have much money now. "

After Wen Qian agreed to the friend application, he snapped his tongue and said with a smile, "You lied to me, someone will pay you." He stretched out his hand to touch Huai Qi's head, but the latter subconsciously dodged it .

"Is there someone?" Huai Qi rubbed the phone screen curiously, and asked cautiously, "Did you mean "Jian Yisu. "

"Hmm, hiss," Wen Qian corrected his words rigorously, "There should be 'ghosts'. "

Huai Qi said: "I really want to know about him, I hope you can tell me "even a little bit." "

"I really can't say, it's related to my life." Wen Qian said solemnly, "If you want to know, just ask him yourself."

For some reason, when he was talking about "major events in life", Huai Qi unconsciously caught a glimpse of the word "making money" on Wen Dao's Changbai T-shirt.

"..."

Huai Qi had no choice but to say: "That's fine."

"But there is one thing I can promise you," Wen Qian said before leaving, "You can trust him unconditionally."

……

That night, Huai Qi had a dream.

The dream is dusk, the seaside, the yard, and the morning glory on the rusty iron fence, whether it is blooming or withered, every tiny vine has a note of name on it.

Someone pushed open the creaking iron door, took his hand, walked for a long time, and walked into the sound of waves.

Huai Qi didn't dare to go there, he was afraid of the sea, his heart would beat abnormally when he saw the tide behind the rocks rushing towards him.He would keep imagining the scene of the salty sea water pouring into his lungs, suffocating him.

But someone was leading the way for him, and he stepped on the footprints ahead and walked slowly, and would grab his hand when his center of gravity was unstable.

who's that person?

Huai Qi couldn't see clearly.

Probably a group of children, a young boy" and a tall figure, he tried hard to recall, but he couldn't concretize the leader who gave him the warmth of his palm.

Until he couldn't keep up, the sea water and the beach turned bloody red, they swallowed all the footprints, and the fishy smell scalded the morning glory to death.

At high tide, it is the sea that kills many people.

……

Huai Qi was woken up by Chen Mingqian - because he didn't finish his homework.

Huai Qi cleaned up the room last night, cleaned the used glasses, and the house looked normal the next day—but it was destroyed by Chen Mingqian early in the morning.He "moved" to the living room, spreading scattered homework papers and schoolbags all over the floor, trying to struggle before going to school.

He howled and complained that no one woke him up.And Ting Xiaoya had already packed her schoolbag, waiting for him to go to school, and even closed the door for Huai Qi intimately, lest Xiao Huai's rare sleep would be ruined by her brother's complaints.

It was six o'clock in the morning, and Huai Qi still dragged his tired body up to make breakfast for the two children.He remembered that there was no class in the first period this morning, so he planned to go back to sleep.

When his consciousness sank into haze, he heard the light breathing sound other than his own.He narrowed his eyes and saw Jian Yisu.

Jian Yisu was sitting beside his bed, his long eyelashes drooping, and he looked at him silently, Huaiqi had never seen this kind of look in his eyes, as if hiding an unknown romance, blinking All rendered extremely soft by this background.

Jian Yisu looked at him like this for a long time, then suddenly took Huaiqi's hand, lowered his head, and touched the wound on his arm that was scratched by the knife with his lips.

The texture of the soul is cold, but Huai Qi feels inexplicably hot where it is gently swept.

Jian Yisu put down his hand and said, "Good morning."

"..." Huaiqi immediately closed his eyes with a guilty conscience.

Jian Yisu said, "I know you're awake."

Huai Qi opened his eyes in surrender.Jian Yisu was leaning over, lazily looking at him with her chin resting on her hands.

Huai Qi lay on his stomach, buried half of his face in the pillow, and said, "Good morning." He hesitated, "That..."

"Ok?"

"Thank you," Huai Qi said, "Yesterday you called someone to help me. "

Jian Yisu smiled: "I heard" the Taoist priest said, you are very brave. "

Huai Qi shook his head and said, "No, my legs will still be weak."

"There are very few people who are naturally bold. Everyone is afraid. But there are still some of them-like you, who know that they have more important things to do when they are afraid." So heroes are usually just brave ordinary people. "Jian Yisu said, "Zhizhi is timid but brave, there is no conflict. "

Huaiqi's ears turned a little red, he turned his head away in embarrassment, and said, "Don't call me that."

Jian Yisu reached out and stroked his hair, Huai Qi didn't hide.Jian Yisu said, "I'm sorry."

Huai Qi was puzzled and said, "Huh?"

"Next time you call my name, I will definitely show up." Jian Yisu stretched out his hand to him, and said, "I won't scare you anymore."

Huai Qi took what was in his palm. It was a red bottle cap with the words "one more bottle" written on it.Jian Yisu said: "It's for you. Red is very suitable for amulets."

Jian Yisu seemed to like rubbing his hair very much, but every time he finished rubbing his hair, he would slowly smooth it back.

Huai Qi's mood fell into a soft spot. He looked into Jian Yisu's eyes and asked, "Then where did you go last night?"

"secret."

"There are many things you don't tell me," Huai Qi said, "but I want to know."

"Yes, I can't say," Jian Yisu said, "but if you ask, I can answer you yes or no. You think slowly, don't worry."

"Have I lost my memory?"

"Hmm" doesn't count. "

Huai Qi tentatively asked: "Then you were my friend before, you seem to know a lot about me."

Jian Yisu's eyes were smiling, and after being silent, he shook his head seriously and said, "No."

"We're not friends," he said slowly.

After Huai Qi asked these two questions, not only did he not have any thoughts, but the fog in his head became a little thicker.He opened his mouth, thinking about what to ask next.However, a hideous scar appeared on Jian Yisu's Adam's apple, and after a while, it slowly faded away.

Huai Qi stretched out his hand, stopped in mid-air, retracted it again, and said, "Your neck is hurt."

Jian Yisu's slender fingers touched his neck, and said calmly: "It's okay, don't worry about it."

This trace was too obvious, it wasn't there when he saw Jian Yisu before, it was only faintly visible when he was answering the question just now.

Could it be related to Jian Yisu's "can't talk about the past with him" matter.

Huai Qi didn't ask anymore, he said worriedly: "What should I do if I still can't remember?"

"I'll just wait until you remember."

Huai Qi buried his whole face in the pillow: "..."

He's lying to me, Huai Qi thought, the Taoist said that the soul will rot, and Jian Yisu couldn't stay with him all the time.

But Huai Qi didn't say anything, his small voice penetrated through the thick cotton in the pillow, protesting: "I'm not easy to lie to."

Jian Yisu smiled and said, "Hmm."
