Hit ghost

Ji Duan's voice didn't wake up Xie Jin, who was in a mess of thoughts. He let the young man shake his body without any resistance, his ashen face was covered with tears.

"Hey, what's the matter with this man?" Ji Duan gritted his teeth and shouted at the anxious black cat, "Think about it, what's wrong with him!"

"Chirp!" The black cat jumped onto Xie Jin's shoulder, and stretched out its long purple tongue to lick the man's eyelids.Within five seconds, Xie Jin suddenly lost consciousness. His body softened and he fell straight into Ji Duan's arms.

"……what happened to him?"

Fortunately, I was able to meet him, otherwise this fall would definitely hurt the man badly.

Ji Duan hugged the unconscious Xie Jinheng, and an adult man lay in his arms, the weight was ridiculously light.

He stuffed Xie Jin into the musty-smelling quilt in the hotel, and then picked up the black cat standing by the bed watching the scene: "What did you do to him just now?"

"Chirp!"

The black cat struggled between his fingers, its small body fell to the ground, and its eyes stared at Ji Duan with a little more contempt.

"Chirp? Okay, I really don't understand how Xie Jin communicated with you." Ji Duan shrugged his shoulders, and he felt unbelievable, "How could I waste my tongue on a bastard like you .”

While speaking, he glanced at the mass of black "things", always feeling that there seemed to be some kind of emotion called anger on the black cat's face.

Ji Duan thought it was fun, and stretched out his hand to tease him again, but as expected, he was bitten again. He shook his hand that was bitten and raised it over his shoulder: "Stop it, let's discuss something now."

The black cat stopped attacking and looked up at him.

"Your master has passed out for unknown reasons. First of all, you and I have to draw a line. It hurts even if you bite your teeth. I agree with that?" Ji Duan looked down at the black cat. One person and one cat looked at each other for a long time. The black cat actually He nodded as if he understood.

"Secondly, I said that I want to stay by his side because there is no place to stay. You don't have to worry about me snatching him from you. This kind of thing can't happen." Ji Duan reached out to touch the black cat's head in a strange way. The little guy smiled, "I will leave naturally after I regain my memory, so you don't have to worry about that."

Xie Jin had a very long dream.

In the dream, there are former members of Spirit Explorer, and there are dangerous places they have been to in those years; there are fathers who don't care about their own lives, and there are landlords who can't receive the rent and have no choice but to extend the payment date.

These past people and things flashed before his eyes one by one like a revolving lantern, and finally Xie Jin saw himself.

The once high-spirited self did not have the shadow of disappointment in life on his face, but wore a hearty smile, standing in the team and bathing in the sun like everyone else.

His chest was so heavy that he was about to suffocate, Xie Jin felt his feet sinking, and his body fell down without weight. The dark ocean wrapped him, and he felt that he couldn't breathe.

Help, someone help me...

Xie Jin desperately stretched out his hand, hoping that someone could give him a hand in this dark seabed, just a hand.

But who can come?No one is there anymore.

The oppressive feeling of the surrounding darkness welled up in his heart, he looked at the top of his head in despair, and let his body fall infinitely as if resigned to his fate, this feeling of dying alone was very strange, it was obviously so painful that his fingertips were numb, but he had to do this Do.

Sometimes, loneliness is much scarier than death.

"Thanks……"

There was a vague voice, which seemed to be blocked by a solid membrane. Xie Jin closed his eyes and listened for a while, and found that the voice was calling his name.

He opened his eyes suddenly, and the voice became clear in an instant: "Xie Jin, hello Xie Jin! Wake up!"

That voice turned into a pale golden light, coiled around Xie Jin's wrist, and a great force pulled him upward at this moment.

"Ah!" He opened his eyes suddenly, the lingering fear of just getting rid of the nightmare still filled his heart, he took a deep breath, like a fish that was almost drowning.

Xie Jin brushed away the fine hair on his forehead, only then did he notice the young man lying in front of the bed and looking at him.

"You finally woke up." Ji Duan got up and poured him a glass of water, and handed it to him, "You were so deeply asleep, but I couldn't wake you up just now."

"...Thank you, I'm fine."

Xie Jin lowered his head, staring blankly at the water glass in his hand.It turned out that the voice just now was Ji Duan, that is to say, this young man dragged him out of the endless abyss.

"I lost my composure just now, I made you laugh." Thinking of the loss of control just now, Xie Jin was so ashamed that he wanted to find a crack in the ground and cry while hugging someone he had just met, it was so embarrassing to death.

But looking at Ji Duan's performance, it seems that he has no intention of asking at all, and he doesn't know if this is a blessing in misfortune.

"Well, I also brought you out of the abandoned paradise, can you..."

Can you stop following me, I really can't communicate normally with other people, Xie Jin got stuck in his throat, he looked at the young man sitting across from him who had saved his life, and couldn't say it out.

Ji Duan heard the clues in his words, opened the chair beside the bed and sat down: "Uncle Xie, do you want to drive me away? Anyway, I was bitten by your 'cat' several times, you really Aren't you going to take responsibility for me?"

He pointed his hand in the direction of the chandelier, and Xie Jin looked at his posture. Sure enough, Ji Duan's body was more transparent than before, and he didn't know if it was because he was bitten several times by Jiu.

"I accidentally saw the ticket back to Tanjiang in your backpack just now. Are you really planning to leave me in this place where I don't have any external memory, so that I will never be reborn forever?"

A trace of grievance appeared on Ji Duan's slightly transparent face. Seeing that Xie Jin's expression was a little moved, he immediately continued to pursue the victory and said, "I will follow you until the injury is healed. I can take care of it very well."

"I..." Xie Jin pursed his lips, thinking that the other party was indeed his savior, no matter how bad he was, he couldn't leave Ji Duan here to fend for himself.

Can it really work?For two years, he had almost no contact with the outside world, even when he went out, he didn't dare to look at passers-by. In this way, when he faced Ji Duan, although the other party was no longer alive, could he really do it?

The small single room fell into a brief silence, Xie Jin sat there with his head down, like a statue in meditation.

Ji Duan was not in a hurry to urge, he sat on the chair with his chin propped up, quietly waiting for the man's answer.

After an unknown amount of time, Xie Jin finally moved. He raised the glass of cold water, brought it to his lips, took a sip, and said, "Okay, I'll take you out of here."

According to the original plan, Xie Jin went to the hotel's simple front desk to check out at noon the next day. The kind boss saw that he was short of money, so he drove him to the hotel in the electric three-wheeled car with a cloak. Airport.

It's just that on the way back this time, there was an extra Ji Duan who was invisible to the naked eye of normal people.

After tossing back and forth for four hours, Xie Jin endured back pain and got off the airport bus. He took off his tightly covered mask and hat, and said to Ji Duan, who was looking at the old building in front of him, "Come on."

Xie Jin's rental house is on the second floor of a basement business in the old city. You need to enter a gloomy and long corridor, and then climb up the rusty iron ladder inside to reach the second floor.

"This house has been around for a while. I see that there is no one living nearby?" Ji Duan looked at the faded sign downstairs, barely recognizable that it used to be a barber shop, with the words "Meimei Haircut" printed on it.

"The house is decades old, and the location is remote and there is no demolition plan. The rent will be relatively cheap."

Xie Jin explained softly, he took out the key from his pocket, and there was a small flashlight hanging beside the thin key, "There is no light in the corridor, be careful when going up the stairs."

He turned on the flashlight, avoided the many sundries piled on the ground, and walked towards the deep corridor first.

Ji Duan was stunned by these words, he stared blankly at Xie Jin's back, and suddenly felt that this man was not so innocent.

Do people usually worry about ghosts, or ghosts that escaped from such a terrifying abandoned paradise? It's hard to say whether he is naive or too stupid.

Xie Jin's rental house was dilapidated as he expected, and the only thing that looked most valuable in the messy cabin was the computer on the table.

"Uncle Xie, do you live here?" Ji Duan took out the black briquette Jiu from nowhere, squeezed it into his hand as a ball to play, and then he was bitten hard as it should be, "It seems that life is a little bit different. Straightforward."

"I made you laugh." Xie Jin said with a good temper, and stretched out his hand to the old curtain that hadn't been opened for a long time.His house has not opened the windows for ventilation all year round, and there is always an indescribable damp musty smell.

In fact, the location of Xie Jin's rental house is very good. Once the curtains are drawn, the sun-facing windows will be covered in sunlight. Even if it can't bring anything else to this small house, at least it can bring some warmth.

"Really, how do you take care of yourself? At least tidy up the house?" Ji Duan bent down, picked up a few musty clothes from the messy floor, and carefully looked at a pair of underwear.

"Ah! That's mine..." Xie Jin rushed over with a blushing face, and snatched the private fig leaf from the young man's hand, "Go and sit over there, I'll clean up the house."

What he pointed to Ji Duan was the only bed that looked fairly clean. The plaid print quilt was stacked on the pillow, and it was very noisy under the sunlight that came in, so it looked very soft.

"Okay, then I won't be polite." Ji Duan took off his shoes and consciously occupied the not-so-big bed. He lay on his side and watched Xie Jin go back and forth in the room cleaning up the toilet.

He has too many things he wants to ask, but since the man is willing to bring him back, there is no rush to ask.

It's okay to take your time.

Ji Duan rested his chin with his palm, thinking secretly.
