Xiaolan remembered very little about the journey down the mountain.
As soon as she got into the car, Xiaolan became drowsy. She only remembered that the fool muttered something, and then she fell asleep.
When he woke up again, he was already lying on the bed.
There were three beds in the room. She was lying on the one at the back. Xiaolan rubbed her eyes and caught a glimpse of Wen Ling lying on the bed in the middle.
She placed her hands flat on her lower abdomen and lay flat on her back.
"Ask the spirit?"
There was no movement.
He probably hasn't woken up yet.
Xiaolan sat up with her arms, feeling sore all over her body. The fatigue of the past few days broke out after a short rest. Xiaolan took a sip of water and walked out of bed.
Qin Yin slept on the bed by the window, his whole body buried in a mess under the quilt, with only a mess of broken hair exposed.
Xiaolan yawned, turned and walked towards the dining table opposite. There was a bag of food on the dining table, which they should have just bought.
Their luggage was piled at the foot of the bed. Xiaolan stood blankly at the dining table for a while, then shuffled towards the luggage.
He squatted down and turned over.
Then, the black doll appeared in her hands.
The black leather was even dirtier. Xiaolan turned it over and looked at it in disgust, planning to throw it directly into the sink.
When walking to the bathroom, Hei Pi spoke.
"Xiaolan?"
"Well," Xiaolan opened the bathroom door, "Can't you even recognize me?"
"You...didn't you see that my eyes were covered with mud?" Heipi shook his head a few times dissatisfied, "Are you okay?"
"What can I do?"
"Weren't you missing for a while?"
"Good guy," Xiaolan started to pour water into the sink, "are your eyes covered in mud so early? Sister Xiaoyin and I met in the cave."
"No, of course I know you guys met up," Heipi floated freely in the water, "I was talking about later."
"Then?" Xiaolan rubbed the black leather surface with her foamy hands, "I never got lost after that."
"I didn't mean you were lost."
"What is that?" Xiaolan looked at herself in the mirror with a disgraced face, raised her head and tossed the hair on her temples behind her ears.
"You seem..." Heipi hesitated, "Forget it, it must be an illusion."
"What? What kind of illusion?" Xiaolan became interested, "Tell me about it."
"Forget it, it's unlucky to say it."
"We have to believe in science about what is auspicious or unlucky," Xiaolan said. "You tell me, and we will analyze it."
"For a while, I thought you were dead."
Xiaolan's movements froze momentarily.
A smile settled on her face. She looked at herself through the mirror, and even felt a little chill in her back.
The only sounds in my ears were the rushing water and the popping of foam.
"It must be an illusion, it must be an illusion," Heipi explained hurriedly, "Look, aren't you fine now? I don't know why I had that illusion. Maybe I had a nightmare. By the way, it must be It's a nightmare, I've been dreaming just now..."
Xiaolan was stunned for a while, then slowly continued what he had just done.
"I did almost die."
"Huh? You?" Heipi didn't believe it, "How is that possible?"
"How is this impossible?" Xiaolan muttered and started cleaning for the second time, "And I feel..."
The words stopped here.
Black Pi waited for a while, "What do you feel?"
"nothing."
"Hey! You..." Black Pi shouted, "You force people to say things they don't want to say, and you have secrets but don't tell them!"
"I will confirm it myself when I get a chance," Xiaolan said to herself, completely ignoring Heipi's accusation, "I will tell you then."
"Do you promise?"
"Well……"
"You big liar!"
"I'll try my best to guarantee it," Xiaolan used running water to clean the black skin for the final time. "Don't worry, I rarely lie to others."
"You can pull him down."
Xiaolan held the black leather between its ears and hung it on the sunny balcony. Then she clapped her hands and turned around and walked out of the balcony.
She closed the curtains again, and when she was about to eat for the second time, her attention was drawn away again.
My mobile phone was charging on the bedside when the black screen suddenly lit up and then went off after a few seconds.
She grabbed a sandwich and walked over.
Although today's mobile phones are all waterproof, no matter how good the mobile phone is, it will break down after being soaked in water for so long. Xiaolan pressed the power button several times but did not see any reaction from it.
She threw away the broken mobile phone, ate the rice ball in several bites, dug out a change of clothes from the clean luggage, pulled up the anti-theft chain, grabbed the clothes and walked into the bathroom again.
Take off your clothes.
Discharge hot water.
Hot steam instantly filled the entire room. Xiaolan stood under the water, feeling the hard-won warmth comfortably.
So comfortable...
The things I experienced a few days ago became distant and unimaginable now.
But then, she remembered Hei Pi's words.
That sentence was not the reason for her silence at that time.
She still remembered the singing.
That singing voice had appeared once vaguely in the form of music, but this time, it was sung clearly by countless female voices.
Remind yourself of something.
That's a feeling.
It felt... like a funeral.
Those songs are like mourning for oneself.
Xiaolan shook her head vigorously.
I was thinking all sorts of things again.
Maybe because this incident happened in my hometown, I seemed... particularly involved.
Xiaolan forced herself to turn her attention away. She speeded up her bathing movements and rinsed her hair. Xiaolan hurriedly filled her bruised body with bath liquid and was about to reach out and turn on the shower again. While there, a strange sound suddenly appeared nearby.
Click... click...
It seemed like there was a person stepping on the water, approaching him.
The tentacles that signaled danger suddenly stood up, and Xiaolan's body suddenly stiffened. She waited quietly, listening to the sound getting closer to the shower curtain.
It came to the shower curtain.
Through the translucent blue shower curtain, I didn't see anyone.
Stopped.
Xiaolan slowly stretched out her hand, held her breath, and grabbed the edge of the shower curtain.
The next second, he pulled away.
"Huh? Xiao...ah! Xiaolan! What are you doing?! Hurry up and block it!"
Qin Yin stood opposite the sink, looking at her naked body, gesticulating desperately with her hands.
Xiaolan was stunned for a moment, and then quickly pulled the shower curtain back.
"Sister Xiaoyin? Why is it you?"
"Otherwise, who else?...No, you can't do this to others! You kid...see how I deal with you later!"
