Chapter 13 Chapter 12 Purple Bell

In the box of a small restaurant, Lin Jingkong told everything she knew, including that Wu Chengwen's father was a genius in Ainu dance, and Wu Chengwen was definitely a top Ainu dancer. Why he committed suicide, no one knows now, but what is certain is that the alarm clock owned by Yan Hui was made by Wu Chengwen. Lin Jingkong took a few mouthfuls and stopped eating more. She tapped her cheek and said, "But why did he make such a laborious and thankless thing? The process of making this thing is very dangerous, and Under normal circumstances, it is also difficult to succeed. It is not an easy task to put a person's soul in one time and reincarnate life after life."

Because Yan Hui read the diary, she had a deep feeling for Wu Chengwen's love experience. She blurted out: "What if you want to maintain a relationship? He thought that he could use this method to keep it for a period of time. Life and death will not matter." Change." Lin Jingkong smiled, and the smile was full of disdain: "This method can save a period of time that will pass away, a love that will change hearts, which is a good idea. However, to be Ziling is to pay the price of life Yes, you don’t even want your life, but go to change for a while, why would Wu Chengwen do this?”

Chen Nuosi continued, "Or is there really a woman who gave him the urge to do this?" Liu Yan knocked on the table: "How can this be called impulsiveness? It's normal to love someone and want to keep the time to love each other, but with such an extreme method, the other person will definitely not agree." Yan Hui asked Lin Jingkong: "What if the other party disagrees with this method?" Lin Jingkong replied quickly: "Of course I don't agree. Using this method will make life worse than death, and the pain is so painful that I wish I had never been in this world. Who would want such extreme pain?"

The scene she saw in the hallucination flashed before Yan Hui's eyes, the intense pain stabbed from every pore in her body, there was no place to escape, the pain was so painful that she wished she could die immediately. She remembered that someone said in her ear, "I'm going to find Wu Chengwen", presumably that woman was Zi Ling's victim! Liu Yan asked puzzledly: "Why Ziling? Not something else?" Lin Jingkong said calmly: "If you want to keep a period of time, the best way is to create a new time. This time is not subject to any control, and you can live in it for life and death without aging or death."

"After Wu Yan was kicked out of the Ainu dance tribe, he hid in such a watch factory to make watch movements. What he wanted was to make purple bells!" Chen Nuo thought for a while and said. Yan Hui stood up suddenly, and everyone looked at her strangely. She said: "Anyway, we're just guessing here now, why don't we ask Wu Chengwen's grandfather directly? Don't tell me there are so many of us, are we still afraid that Zi Ling won't make it?" She took out the alarm clock from her bag, pointed to the clock and said, "I want to return this thing to the Wu family myself. The monster they created themselves, let them bear it by themselves, don't give it to me."

At this time, the woman holding the bell was still holding the bell so tenderly, as sweet as the first love at the beginning, without any murderous intent. A group of people came to the watch factory. It was dark at this time, and the whole factory was immersed in a gloomy and sad atmosphere. There were no street lights on the dilapidated road, and the only light came from the dormitory building far away. over here. The dormitory buildings are illuminated by light bulbs, and the dim light makes the factory look like a ghost town.Yan Hui also began to regret that she made this decision too hastily, but seeing that the expressions of all the people around her were normal, even the most gentle and weak Bu Yu seemed to be walking in her back garden, completely unaffected, Yan Hui couldn't help but Gathering his mind, he continued to move forward.

After walking for a long time, I couldn't find the dormitory. After dark, the roads were empty, and most of the dormitory buildings were dark.The further Yan Hui walked, the more uncertain she felt. She tried to find someone to ask, but she couldn't see anyone, and the canteen closed as if she had made an appointment. Just when Yan Hui was about to give up, she suddenly saw a little boy playing table tennis under a bright light, and the ball was bouncing back and forth on the racket.Yan Hui was about to step forward to inquire, but Chen Nuosi gave her a hand: "I'll come, you don't want to go there."

Before Yan Hui knew what was going on, Bu Yu gently held her hand and shook her head gently. Chen Nuosi came back after a while, and said to Yan Hui, "Let's go, that path leads to the ninth dormitory." Yan Hui gave these people a strange look, except for Liu Yan who was a little panicked, everyone else looked as usual. When she reached the door of the ninth dormitory building, Yan Hui finally couldn't help asking: "What happened to that little boy just now? He didn't come home so late, and you didn't help to ask." Chen Nuosi said angrily and amusedly: "What a rough line! That little boy is obviously not standing on the ground, and the windows of that building are all shut tightly, where is the light coming from?"

It was only then that Yan Hui understood why Chen Nuosi refused to let her go. They Ainu dancers should be used to these things, so they looked natural. The most pitiful thing was Liu Yan. Although he tried his best to keep calm, he always felt overwhelmed, as if he would run wild at any time. Yan Hui didn't care too much, she strode into the dormitory building, and the corridor with lights turned on at night was brighter than when she came in during the day.She found that room and began to knock on the door vigorously. Then she thought that the neighbor had said that the old man had bad ears, so she pushed the door open by herself.

Chen Nuosi was the first to go in. The lights were on in the room, and the furnishings were still there. The position hadn't changed at all, and there was still a person lying on the bed, but his back was facing everyone. Yan Hui didn't know how to go over to say hello, and after asking a few words, the old man refused to turn around.Bu Yu patted Yan Hui lightly, and pointed to a blueprint on the dining table. Yan Hui picked up the blueprint that seemed to be placed at random, and just by looking at the shape, she knew it was Ziling's design. With this blueprint, the secret of Ziling can be deciphered, all this is really easy.The blueprints were just left there, and no one paid attention to them. It seems that this old man really doesn't deal with anyone.

Yan Hui knew that she couldn't ask anything, so she took the blueprint, put a big red envelope on the table, and left the room. As soon as he exited, he saw a head protruding from the side. It was the aunt and neighbor I saw last time. Yan Hui didn't want to chatter with her anymore, and was about to leave, but the aunt asked, "Are you a relative of the Wu family? The old man has already gone in the afternoon. Well, fortunately, he left in the hospital, otherwise this house will be rented to someone in the future." who?" Yan Hui stood on her feet and glanced at the aunt. The fat woman felt like her pores were blown open by Yan Hui's look. Such sharp eyes made people feel unstoppable. "You said that uncle passed away this afternoon?" Chen Nuosi asked. "That's right! Wu Chengwen's grandfather fell ill in the afternoon, and we helped to send him to the hospital. He didn't suffer any crimes, and he passed away not long after he was sent to the hospital." The aunt didn't understand why the expressions of these people were all like this ugly. Liu Yan nodded and said, "Thank you!" A group of people walked out without saying a word, and when they were about to leave the factory door, Liu Yan couldn't help asking: "Then who is the person on the bed we saw in the room just now?" The drawings were taken away by Bu Yu, and Yan Hui went to the hospital to check on Li Le because he was tired all day, and after making sure that he was fine, he went back to the hotel with Chen Nuosi. Now that everything is done here, everyone decided to go back tomorrow.Although it felt like this trip was a mess, but seeing that Yan Hui was safe and found Zi Ling's blueprint, the atmosphere of the whole team was very good. In the twin room where Lin Jingkong and Yan Hui lived, Yan Hui came out after washing her hair, and said to Lin Jingkong who was making a facial mask while drying her hair, "Thank you." She already knew that Lin Jingkong found her address and told everyone, and she was really touched that Lin Jingkong could come to her. Yan Hui's voice was not loud, but it still made Lin Jingkong startled for a moment. She didn't make a sound, and continued to make the mask.After a while, she tore off the mask and said to Yan Hui: "People who learn Ainu dance can't be with ordinary girls, you must know it already?" Yan Hui was combing her hair, when she heard this sentence, the comb in her hand stopped. "I know." "Chen Nuosi once had a girlfriend, and that girl was named Xiaolu." "and after?" Lin Jingkong sighed deeply: "Later, he died." Yan Hui took a deep breath. She read in Wu Chengwen's diary that people who learn Ainu dance cannot fall in love with ordinary women, but she didn't expect the consequences to be so serious. Lin Jingkong patted the essence, and said softly: "Chen Nuosi grew up with me, and I really don't want him to be hurt again. The original intention of learning Ainu dance is to help those in need, but I The reluctance to do this kind of help is based on hurting him." Yan Hui listened quietly, nodded and said, "I understand." Lin Jingkong turned around and looked at Yan Hui. The two women looked at each other, as if they were allies on the same front. They all saw the selfless love for Chen Nuosi from each other's eyes, and with such feelings, no one would be willing to hurt Chen Nuosi. Although they didn't say a word, they seemed to have promised each other that they would not let Chen Nuosi get hurt again. Yan Hui knew that her promise to Lin Jingkong was cruel to herself, but she had no way out. Sometimes death is not scary at all, what is scary is the life you survive to face. On the second day after returning to Wucheng, Bu Yu sent a text message to inform Yan Hui and his party to look at the drawings. Liu Yan made an appointment in a quiet teahouse, and everyone sat around the tea table, and the drawings were spread on the tea table made of sandalwood.Buyu had already made it clear to Liu Yan with pen and paper, and now Liu Yan will tell everyone the secret in this drawing. "This clock is not a spell, nor a curse, nor will it harm anyone. It is of no use to others except the people and time that the owner of the clock wants to keep." Liu Yan shocked everyone when he opened his mouth. Yan Hui raised her head in disbelief and said, "Impossible. Those things happened only after I had this clock." "The clock was given by Xiaorui. If the clock was a scary thing, Xiaorui would not give it to you." Liu Yan said with certainty. "But," Yan Hui knew in her heart that Xiaorui would not hurt herself, but she couldn't help but said, "So many things, are they all just coincidences? If there is nothing wrong with this clock, then where is the problem?" Everyone looked at Bu Yu, Bu Yu smiled wryly and shook her head, which meant she didn't know either. She took out a pen and paper, wrote a paragraph, and handed it to everyone. "I have been exposed to curses similar to turning back time, and I have also studied the formation of many curses, so I can understand this blueprint. But this blueprint has no intention of harming people at all, and it is indeed not a curse. Stay for a while. Therefore, if there is a problem, it is only Wu Chengwen's own problem and has nothing to do with others." "Isn't this Ziling?" Lin Jingkong believed Bu Yu's words, and the guardian had a high status in the entire spirit world. Lin Jingkong took the clock and looked it over carefully: "This must be Ziling, a house of time built with purple dreams. However, this clock has no intention of hurting people. Could it be that what Wu Yan has done these years is to improve What about Zi Ling?" Chen Nuosi on the side was anxious: "This damn clock is useless, so why did it fall into Yan Hui's hands?" Yan Hui was also stunned. From the very beginning when she got this clock until now, she has regarded this clock as the greatest source of all disasters.However, after doing so many things, I found that I blamed the wrong person from the beginning. So what is the problem?Perhaps, only Xiaorui can answer.However, since Xiaorui committed suicide, she rarely even dreamed about her, so how could she ask Xiaorui for clarification? Just when Yan Hui didn't know how to solve this problem, a good thing finally happened, Bellara woke up. Bellara was sitting on the hospital bed, the sun fell on her, making her still look so beautiful. Seeing her friend sitting in front of her, Yan Hui felt that this was the best day of these difficult days.She seemed to go back to the time when she was shopping carefree with Bellara before, it seemed that weird things never happened, and she was never separated from Bellara. Bellara's face was very calm, she looked at the bright sun outside the window, and gently patted Yan Hui beside her: "Don't get excited, sit down!" Yan Hui sat down, took Bellara's hand and kept watching: "It's good that you woke up, I'm really worried to death!" She was right at all, the main reason for going to look for Wu Chengwen was to find out the truth of the matter, to find out the cause of Xiaorui's death, and hope that Bellara would wake up soon. Bellara looked at the woman in front of her. She had indeed lost a lot of weight, but the smile on her face was filled with happiness from the bottom of her heart. "Actually, I've been awake all the time. I know you and Zhanfeng are worried, but I don't want to wake up." Bellara said calmly. "Why?" Yan Hui's eyes widened in shock. "Because I'm tired." Bellara stared into the distance.Not far from the window is a forest, the forest is lush and full of vitality, "I feel very tired and want to sleep for a while." Yan Hui knew what Bellara was referring to, and couldn't help but feel sad, took her hand and comforted her in a low voice: "Fool." Bellara pointed to her chest: "It really hurts here, not from a knife piercing it in, it hurts many times more than a knife." "Where's Zhanfeng?" Yan Hui knew she couldn't avoid this question. "I already told him to break up." Bellara was very calm. "But he does regret it." "I know he regrets it, but he hurt me too much. I'm a little scared. Now I don't have the courage to love or accept him. I just want to take a vacation for myself." Bella Stretched Lazy, "I've been in love for so many years, can't I live a good life if I don't love people?" Yan Hui looked at Bellara's expression, she didn't seem to be lying to support her, so she patted her hand and said, "If you really want to take a vacation for yourself, or choose to love others again, I will support you! We You are a good friend, and I will always be by your side." Bellara held Yan Hui's hand tightly, feeling that her whole body was full of strength and warmth. "How is Zhanfeng?" Yan Hui asked after thinking about it.She had seen Zhanfeng's remorseful, pitiful and loving expression towards Bellara, which indeed contained deep feelings.Although it is a cliché that "only when you lose it" is a cliché, but perhaps only Zhanfeng has the deepest understanding of this sentence. "He wants to travel alone for a while, and let himself think about what kind of life he wants." Bellara sighed. Yan Hui looked at this couple who were deeply in love, and because of the irreparable scars caused by the betrayal, she could only smile bitterly to express her regret. Bellara also smiled at her: "When I was in a coma, I kept hearing someone talking to me. Let me tell you something." "What?" Yan Hui realized that this was probably what Xiaorui wanted her to tell her. "Let you go back to the dormitory once." Bellara smiled self-deprecatingly, "I don't know what's going on, it seems to be a dream, someone said such things to me in the dream, and I actually really Come and tell you." Yan Hui was very happy, she finally understood what Xiaorui meant.Although she didn't understand why she told herself through Bellara, the important thing was that she finally knew what she was going to do next. Bellara's waking up gave Yan Hui a glimmer of hope. The deadlock had been broken. The problem did not appear on Zi Ling, but in the dormitory. Yan Hui stayed with Bellara all day in the hospital, until Bellara drove her home: "Yan Hui, I'm fine now, you don't have to take care of me like a glass man, I'll be fine again." Yan Hui was still a little worried: "But, you have been in a coma for so long." "But haven't I woken up now? If you worry so much, you will grow old quickly in the future." Bellara was already thinking about joking. Yan Hui took a look at the sky, and sure enough, the time spent with her friends passed faster, and before she knew it, it was getting dark outside. So, the two said goodbye again, Bellara said that she would be discharged from the hospital in a few days after the examination, and Yan Hui said that she must come to pick her up in person. Yan Hui walked on the street in a relaxed mood, with cars coming and going on the road, she walked lightly all the way, the depression of the past few days was lifted like a big stone on her chest, and her expression lifted. It's not completely dark yet, so the street lights haven't been turned on yet.The fragrance of laurel floats in the air, and this is the season when laurel blooms in full bloom. Strings of pink flowers hang on the treetops, and when the wind blows, they cover people's faces like snow. Looking from a distance, some windows have been lit up, and the warm lights seem to be calling pedestrians on the road to go home quickly.Pedestrians on the road are in a hurry, and everyone is rushing to their respective destinations.The whole city is immersed in this smell of fireworks, like a big ship sailing slowly in the boundless ocean, not knowing where the destination is. Yan Hui watched a bus pass by, because it was a traffic light intersection, the car was not driving fast, a woman sitting on the bus looked down and met Yan Hui's eyes. Yan Hui jumped up in surprise, and then ran after the bus. Isn't that woman her own mother?Why didn't she call herself when she came to this city?Or what happened to the mother? She followed the bus for a long time, and after turning to a strange place, she still watched the bus go away. This section of the road is not prosperous, and the residential area looks old. It may be that the location is too remote. After waiting for a long time, even a taxi did not arrive. She took out her mobile phone and wanted to call Chen Nuosi, but thinking of her promise to Lin Jingkong, she put down her mobile phone anyway. She no longer has the right to ask a man who doesn't intend to love her again and again. Such behavior is shameful. All love is not a one-sided war. So, Yan Hui cheered up and walked to the brightest place in the residential area.On a night like this, it's such a good thing to see people and feel their amiability. Walking along the sidewalk, Yan Hui felt an inexplicable panic in her heart. She couldn't help turning around and looking behind her, only to find that the back was empty and there was no one there. Why are there no off-duty people who come and go on weekdays?Aren't there still some hawkers setting up street stalls in the dark of night?How could this road be so quiet today, it was as if all the crowd were suddenly sucked away by the blackness, leaving Yan Hui alone in the whole world. She can comfort herself in her heart, but she can't stop her chills, she can only say to herself: "Don't be afraid, everything is back to normal now, it's okay, it's okay." At this moment, she smelled a scent, the strong aroma of beef noodles, which exploded in the air like a million roses, strongly shaking her taste buds. Yan Hui forgot all her fears for a moment, she felt that she was too hungry and wanted to eat, she wished she could eat it right away, otherwise she would go crazy. Yan Hui walked along the scent, bypassing the sidewalk, and there was an alley in front of her.This ancient alley has many steps extending down.At this time, the sky suddenly began to drizzle, and the rain was lingering, she didn't run or hide, but felt that the rain was just right, as if there was a fragrance in the rain. The steps are made of stone, and there seems to be a noodle stall with lights hanging straight down, and it is still operating supper.Looking at the rain, someone has already pulled up the rain cloth, and there are a few tables under the cloth, and there are diners sitting on two tables. The boss is standing by the stove of the trolley, helping others to cook noodles, and another pot is full of fragrant soup. Yan Hui walked down the wall step by step, the steps leading to the noodle stall were wet and slippery, the light and shadow from other places were dim, and she would slip if she was not careful. In this environment, Yan Hui felt that when she stepped on the stone steps, what she stepped on was a pair of children's shoes in white socks. It felt like returning to her childhood, dragging her mother He walked down the steps to eat beef noodles with his hands, and the old man who cooked the noodles was standing in the dim light, and the aroma was so familiar. The further down she went, the clearer the memory became.At night when it was drizzling, my mother's big dry and gentle hand held her little hand, telling her to be careful while leading her forward. Yan Hui finally finished walking those steps, standing in front of the owner of the beef noodle stall, she suddenly said habitually: "Two bowls of beef noodles." Yes, it was Yan Hui who yelled this sentence out loud in the past. "Huh?" The boss saw her coming alone, so he asked, "Another package?" Yan Hui shook her head, then chose a seat to sit down.When I was a child, the tables always looked very tall, and my mother always helped her put the chairs gently, and the mother and daughter sat in the fragrant environment like this, waiting for the noodles to be served. It is not possible to eat noodles every day. The early death of the father made life very difficult for the family, but the mother would always take her to eat a bowl of beef noodles on her birthday. The two of them have walked so much holding hands years. When the noodles were served, Yan Hui put another bowl on her left, where her mother was sitting, and the bowl contained the familiar sliced ​​meat and two stalks of vegetables.Yan Hui picked up a chopstick noodle, her eyes were blurred by the steaming heat, she seemed to see a familiar figure on her left. She has experienced so many things, so much that she can finish the noodles calmly and drink the last sip of soup with great care. The tears in her eyes finally fell down, and she seemed to say to herself: "Thank you mom!" The mother brought her back to eat her favorite food when she was a child again. The mother may still think that the child has not grown up! Yan Hui put down the bowl and found that there was nothing around her.She paid the money, took out her mobile phone calmly, dialed the number, took a deep breath and said, "Mom is gone, I want to go home now, can you drive me?" In a room, Lin Jingkong firmly dragged Chen Nuosi's hand and said, "You can't go! I won't let you go!" Chen Nuosi suddenly stopped struggling and let her sweep all the things in the house on the ground. "You know it's useless to go, you know you can't save her, and you can't save her family, why do you have to accompany her?" Lin Jingkong fell into a hysterical state. Chen Nuosi took a distressed look at Lin Jingkong, who was already at a loss, and said, "Don't do this, I'll be fine." "You said before that you were fine. What happened afterwards? What kind of life have you lived in the past few years? Do you want to live again?" "I know you care about me." "So what? Do you care?" Chen Nuosi nodded and said, "I care, of course I do. So, I must go." He thought for a while and said, "I want to see if I can protect the people I care about." Lin Jingkong stayed there and didn't speak anymore. Chen Nuosi walked over and hugged her, and said, "I want to protect the person I want to protect. I hope I have this ability. I couldn't do it before, but I want to do it now." He let go of his hand, picked up the bag, and strode out. Lin Jingkong knew that it was useless to persuade her too much, so she looked to the deepest part of the city, where there was a small courtyard, and an old man had been teaching her Ainu dance since she was a child. However, this old man passed away just two years ago. Lin Jingkong looked at the back of Chen Nuosi going away, and gritted her teeth. Although she didn't learn the spirit-calling dance well, she should be able to invite a master to help her if she danced reluctantly. At this time, she didn't know who else she could turn to for help. Bu Yu stood quietly by the window, while Liu Yan was wandering downstairs, his figure stretched very long. Liu Yan has a lot to ask Buyu, such as who is she?How can you know so many things?Why do you know the emergence of reliefs?How could she understand the drawings?Does Xiaorui's death have anything to do with her? These questions are like a time bomb, hovering in his mind all the time, he wants to ask but can't bear to ask, Bu Yu's eyes always make him feel distressed. Buyu looked at Liu Yan and felt that it was time to explain these problems, but the pain from before made her not want to go forward and explain. Just like this, the two people were not far away, exploring each other, but they couldn't take a step forward. Yan Hui watched Chen Nuosi drive over, in the night, he looked extraordinarily good-looking. After all, he was willing to accompany him, even if he was willful and selfish, but at this moment, Yan Hui only wanted to see his face. If women live as indestructible as Transformers all the time, then what's the point of life? Chen Nuosi hugged the dazed Yan Hui into his arms, he didn't ask why, but asked what happened to her, because Yan Hui's sad expression already explained everything.Just like when he lost his father back then, the bewildered eyes and the grief-stricken face were all sadness that could not be questioned. As the car was driving on the highway, Yan Hui leaned her head on the back of the seat and intermittently talked about her past.How did her father take her to catch shrimps when she was a child? The shrimps were hidden in the roots of the grass blades. When they were caught with a small net, the shrimps would burrow into the mud. Talk about how her father said goodbye to her, left at dusk, and never came back. He said that in his small courtyard there are a few gardenia trees, which are fertilized with strong tea leaves, and the leaves are green. When they bloom, lying on the small bed, you can smell the fragrance in the whole room. My mother likes knitting sweaters. When I work night shifts in the factory, there is always a ball of wool in my pocket. When I am free, I take it out and start knitting. The sweater I wear is always the most beautiful among all the children. Those little things were talked about without any beginning or end, like a small fish that suddenly swam into Yan Hui's mind.She kept talking like that, one after another, like a little fish swimming with memories in the whole carriage. Chen Nuosi didn't speak, he knew that listening was the best comfort at this time.
