In the middle of the night, the wind chime in front of the door was blown by gusts of wind.
"Ding ding dong dong..."
I couldn't stand the noise, so I fumbled in the dark and pressed the lamp button.
The room was instantly illuminated by warm yellow light. I rubbed my eyes and walked towards the door, ready to take off the wind chime hanging on the door. But before I opened the door, the sound of the wind chimes suddenly stopped. The sound stopped so suddenly that it was almost eerie. It's like someone is controlling the wind chimes outside.
I immediately became alert and stood in front of the door. After a while, when I heard the sound of wind chimes, I timidly opened the door. Because I was afraid, I turned on the light in the bedroom. As soon as I opened the door, there was a gust of wind blowing. Only then did I notice that there was a big gap in the balcony sliding door. I walked forward tremblingly and closed the door.
I looked at the wind chime on the door, thinking that since the balcony door was closed anyway, there would be no wind, so I didn't take it off. But just as I was covering myself with the quilt, the wind chimes started ringing strangely again.
I noticed something was wrong, but when I thought about going to class tomorrow, I got up impatiently from the bed. This time, I must take it off.
Although I have a little fear in my heart, I feel very irritable when I think about not sleeping. Listening to the clear but now very disturbing sound of wind chimes outside the door, I opened the door angrily.
But when I opened the door, I froze in surprise.
The wind chime in front of me has not moved at all, but the sound of the wind chime is still echoing outside the door. I even felt that the voice was getting closer and closer to me. A chill suddenly rose in my heart. I yelled and ran downstairs in a panic, preparing to ask my mother for help. The sound of the wind chimes got louder and louder, and I ran faster and faster. Obviously our house is so big, why haven't I gone to my parents' bedroom yet? Because I was so panicked, I kept running so hard that I didn't even notice that there was an unknown object blocking me in the darkness. I was running too fast and accidentally bumped into him.
This collision made stars appear in my eyes, and I suddenly felt that the sky was dark and the earth was dark. Before I had time to think about what I hit, I fell asleep. I don't think it's because of the collision, but because of the wonderful smell in the air, which makes people feel very comfortable. It even seems to have a kind of hypnotic magic. The smell was very strange, a light, seemingly inoffensive fragrance.
Drowsily, I seemed to hear a low sigh. Immediately afterwards, I seemed to be gently picked up. I didn't have the strength to struggle, but the fear I had before gradually dissipated. I felt like there was a warm current rushing through my body deep inside. I tried to open my eyes, but it was in vain. I started to fall asleep completely.
I have been under a lot of pressure from studying recently and my sleep quality is not very good. But when I got up the next day, I felt very comfortable all over. It was like having a long dream and sleeping for a long time. However, I don’t remember the content of the dream very clearly. It seems to be related to wind chimes, but it also seems to be related to a person.
Morning class morning reading.
"Xiaoxian, what's wrong with you today?" Li Wan, my deskmate, waved her hand in front of my eyes.
Only then did I wake up. "Maybe it's because I didn't sleep last night..." I was about to say something, but was interrupted by my old classmate who suddenly walked into the classroom.
Lao Ban is famously strict in school. Li Wan and I quickly lowered our heads and pretended to have been studying seriously. Not only the two of us, but also some other students who were chatting or napping while reading in the morning immediately picked up their books and started reading. The class where the reading sound was originally very quiet suddenly became several times louder after the head teacher arrived.
During this period, I secretly glanced at the podium and found that my old classmate was talking, but the students were all reading the textbooks "seriously" and no one dared to raise their heads. Everyone was reading at the top of their lungs. Laoban raised his voice midway, but his voice was quickly drowned in the sound of everyone reading. Finally, Lao Ban couldn't hold it any longer and knocked on the podium with the blackboard eraser.
The classmates also began to put down their books and looked up at him with worry and curiosity.
