The place where Aunt Ting lives has a beautiful environment. She led us into an ancient house with many rooms and winding corridors. The courtyard surrounds a garden with a stream. The garden was colorful and full of life, which seemed out of place in this place where zombies gathered.
The cherry blossom tree in the center of the garden was in particularly brilliant bloom. My eyes stayed on it for several seconds, and I came back to my senses only after Aunt Ting's greeting.
Why did Aunt Ting become a zombie? Could it be that she was bitten by some zombie after being hit by a car?
"Yuxian, have you eaten? If not, Auntie will cook it for you." Aunt Ting said enthusiastically.
"Auntie, we have already eaten. Don't bother Auntie."
Lin Jie, who was silent on the side, suddenly spoke to Aunt Ting: "Mom, come here, I have something to tell you."
I wanted to avoid it, but I had nowhere to go. I could only look around and pretend not to hear what they were saying.
In just a few minutes, Aunt Ting almost learned something from Lin Jie. Then she blamed Lin Jie: "Why didn't you send Yuxian to me earlier? She must have psychological shadow now. You kid, you usually don't discuss anything with me."
Lin Jie lowered his head. This once aloof academic master has become obedient and obedient in front of his mother. But in front of Uncle Lin, he didn't seem to be like this.
Aunt Ting turned around, touched my hand, and said distressedly: "Xiaojie told me roughly your experience, and I don't know that I will see you one day again. There are no humans in this place, so you don't have to worry. , because the zombies here will not drink human blood. Maybe you have many questions about why Aunt Ting is still alive. Originally, I wanted to hide it from everyone, even from the child’s father." The aunt said something a little bit here Choking, her eyes were red and tears filled her eyes.
I comforted: "Auntie, don't be sad. You have your own reasons for doing this."
"Yuxian, I was actually a zombie from the beginning, but half of my body is human blood. It's amazing to say. Zombies have been demonized in the past. Many humans think that zombies are all blood-sucking monsters, but they don't know that only extremely Only a small number of zombies have such brutal behavior. Just like the bad guys among people, they are only a small part. But human beings generalize. In desperation, the zombies later moved here to seek peace. For the zombies If we can live in harmony with humans, our zombie clan will also send some people to learn human culture. My father was once the leader of the zombie clan, and also served as an envoy to the human world. He accidentally met my mother, and the two fell in love. gave birth to me. But my mother died of illness very early, and my father took me back to the zombie clan."
"But not long after we came back, we heard that there were bloodthirsty zombies killing humans in the human world. My father had no choice but to go to the human world to catch these bloodthirsty zombies himself, but unfortunately he was misunderstood by a Taoist priest with great magic power. That The Taoist priests beat him seriously and indiscriminately, and my father did not come back alive... Later, I also met Xiaojie's father because I was on a mission to the human world. He still doesn't know my true identity. In order not to expose his identity, he often traveled between the zombie country and the human world. Unexpectedly, Xiaojie's father's health was getting worse and worse at that time, and he went to the hospital for examination but the results were inconclusive. In order to save him, I found out that there were many strange flowers in Yunhe Mountain. Grass can cure diseases. But I didn't expect that I met an eminent monk there. As soon as he saw me, he told me that my husband was in pain and told me that it was caused by too much yin energy. I stayed Being around him will only make his condition worse. He also said that my mother died early because my father was a zombie. Zombies themselves are extremely yin. The words of the eminent monk made me think about it for a long time. Maybe, I should make a decision Some choices."
"So I created a fake car accident and tried to leave my beloved man and my baby son in this way. I regretted it when I came back, but I would regret it even more if I watched my beloved die. I once Standing somewhere secretly, watching them from a distance. Maybe they can sense me, but I will never appear in front of them. I think I am also selfish. My leaving has brought them grief , which made them sad for many years. Even though I knew that there was hope for reunion, I had to sacrifice the joy of reunion for love. Until Xiaojie was in his first year of high school, his special physique attracted the attention of the underworld, and they sent people I went to make a deal with Xiaojie and wanted him to take over some affairs of the underworld. But this kid foolishly made meeting me a condition of the deal, and just like that, he found me under the guidance of the underworld messenger."
These things sound like fiction to me. My heart is filled with sympathy and understanding for Aunt Ting, as well as admiration for Lin Jie.
"Aunt Ting, Lin Jie is very good at school. I didn't expect that he was working part-time in the underworld at the same time and his grades were so good. Aunt Ting, you are very lucky to have given birth to such a good son, who is filial and smart." I Can't help but praise.
Aunt Ting couldn't help but laugh and said: "No way, he was not very obedient when he was a child. You have just encountered danger, and you must have been frightened. I have prepared a room for you. You all go to rest first. I will give you Make chicken soup. Even if you’re not hungry, you have to try it. This chicken soup is very filling.”
After talking, Lin Jie and I were taken to the rest room by Aunt Ting. The room I stayed in was very elegantly decorated and looked very comfortable.
As soon as I closed the door and lay on the bed, I heard a knock on the door. I quickly asked: "Who is it?"
"It's me." Lin Jie's gentle but deep voice came from outside.
I quickly put on my shoes and stood up to open the door.
Lin Jie came in with tea in one hand, but his other hand was behind his back.
"I think you must be thirsty. Drink some water first." His face was a little red. I was confused, but I drank the water obediently.
After I finished drinking the water, he put a cherry blossom in full bloom in my hand and said hesitantly: "Here it is for you. I just saw you staring at it for a long time in the yard. I thought you would like it." .”
I saw this beautiful flower and praised it repeatedly: "This flower blooms really well, thank you."
"There are a lot of things that I didn't have time to tell you in the Lost Dream House. In fact, I also want to explain, but I always feel that time is in a hurry. I hope you can understand my difficulties."
"I don't blame you. In order to save me, your life was almost threatened. I don't know how to thank you."
"We grew up together, and we can be considered childhood sweethearts. In fact, I, I have always liked you." His face turned redder, and his hands clenched.
I had just picked up the cherry blossoms and suddenly let go and looked at him in surprise.
At this time, Aunt Ting walked in and saw Lin Jie in my room. She immediately put down the chicken soup and said with a smile: "You guys can chat slowly and drink some chicken soup by the way."
Watching Aunt Ting leave, I felt a little helpless. Why didn't I see that Lin Jie was interested in me before? Isn't this a joke?
My brain was running at high speed, and I finally thought of how to reject him: "Lin Jie, maybe it's because I was the girl you had the most contact with before. Maybe you took that familiarity as liking. In fact, there must be many good ones around you." Girls…”
"You must be tired today, go to bed early." He lowered his head in disappointment, turned around and walked away lonely.
Lin Jie, thank you very much. I wanted to say this, but before I could, he was gone.
Because it was still daytime, Aunt Ting was just about to take a rest. She finished the soup and went to rest. But I still have lots of energy. Having experienced so many incredible things, I am very confused now, but inexplicably I feel that the once ordinary me has become more and more different. What was once a stagnant life has now become a luxury.
I think I can't always bring others down. Looking back when I encountered danger before, I was either waiting to die or waiting for others to save me. But what if one day I am not so lucky, then I will be doomed.
It's really rubbish. He Yuxian, why are you so bad?
I suddenly missed my family and friends so much that I couldn't help but shed tears. I really want to go back as soon as possible.
Just when I thought this, my door suddenly made a faint noise, as if someone wanted to push the door open but didn't come in. I tiptoed close to the door. Just as I was about to peek through the window to see who it was, I saw a man wearing white clothes and a bamboo hat standing outside. My eyes stayed on him for a long time. I wasn't worried about who he was, but I always felt familiar.
Just like the boy in white who rescued me in the dungeon that day. But wasn’t it Xiaoye that day? And Lin Jie also told me that he was Xiaoye. how so? Are all Yin Chai’s clothes similar?
My bracelet suddenly vibrated crazily. I covered it as hard as I could to prevent it from making any sound. But the person outside the door suddenly disappeared. I rubbed my eyes and quickly recovered. It's absolutely impossible for me to be deceived.
That thing just now couldn't be some kind of ghost. My wind chime will vibrate if it encounters a ghost.
Doesn’t it mean that ordinary people can’t enter this place? I took a few steps back in fear. Lin Jie may still be angry now, and I don't want to disturb him.
Suddenly, I turned around and saw Han Wanting sitting on the table behind me.
"How did you get in?" I yelled, but Han Wanting covered my mouth.
"Shh. Keep your voice down. You are now our key protection target in the underworld. I will definitely supervise you anytime and anywhere." Han Wanting had already taken off his hat. He looked tired.
"How did you get in?"
"I walked in. I just came in after I saw the guy next door leave. Don't worry, he shouldn't be able to see me." Han Wanting said casually.
"You know the invisibility technique?" I couldn't laugh or cry.
"The person talking to you now is my soul." Han Wanting suddenly stood up and floated to my side.
"Then you are a ghost?" I was so frightened that I took several steps back, not noticing that there was a bench behind me. Just when I fell, Han Wanting suddenly hugged my waist.
"Are you scared?" He teased me with a gentle smile in my ear. The sudden air-conditioning made me shiver.
We looked at each other for a few seconds, and there was a bit of ambiguity in the air. He has a refreshing fragrance on his body. His eyes were like bright stars, so profound that I almost forgot the passage of time.
"I'm not scared, I'm just surprised. Weren't you a human before? Why have you become a ghost now?" I pushed him away and tried to change the subject to avoid the embarrassment.
"Out of body. Why are you so stupid?"
I don’t know why, but when I saw him again after so long, even when he scolded me, I didn’t refute him like before.
He gave me a sense of security from the bottom of my heart.
