Chapter 2 Chapter 2 Xiao House

"Lu'er, do you think it's strange? The Cuiwei community here is a key green belt in the city...it's not allowed to build houses casually. I really don't know how the family surnamed Xiao can live in the green forest Where did you go?" Today is Friday, so I don't need to study at night.So after class at five o'clock, Amy and Zhou Luer went home together. The setting sun stretched the lively shadows of the two girls for a long time, and they were riding the bicycle side by side. On the way home, after Amy talked about what happened last night excitedly, she asked her companion strangely.

Zhou Luer's eyes lit up when she heard her friend's words: "That's right...it's not something ordinary people can do to build a house here! —— You said that woman is very beautiful?" Amy giggled: "Yes, that Xiao Yin's is really beautiful!" She stepped on the bicycle hard, thought for a while, and finally came to a conclusion: "Yan Linlin is not worthy to carry her shoes!" Yan Linlin is the school belle of their Haicheng Girls' High School, recognized as the number one beauty, but because of her spoiled temper, she has always had a bad reputation among girls—so Amy's words immediately caused Zhou Luer to laugh in agreement.

"Is it really that beautiful?" After laughing, Zhou Luer stopped the car and said with a smile, "Such a beautiful woman lives in a place like this... I'm afraid it's a female ghost." "Nonsense." Amy retorted with a smile, but a coolness rose in her heart.Such an ethereal and graceful young woman, the woman who recited poems on the tree in the middle of the night - she really looks like those female ghosts in ancient times! "Hey, I just said it casually...you won't be scared, right?" Zhou Luer immediately restrained her joking expression when she saw her friend's face change, and comforted her. At the same time, she raised her eyes, looked ahead, and blurted out Get up: "Xiaomei, Xiaomei...Look! Is that woman on the side of the street sign in front of you the one you mentioned in Xiao's house?"

As soon as Amy was told, she also raised her eyes to look at the turning point of the road ahead - there, under the log signboard, a woman in a purple dress was bending over to take something from a wooden box nailed under the signboard.Even looking at it from a distance, such a graceful demeanor already broke the hearts of two young girls. "Really, really beautiful." Zhou Luer was stunned for a long time before swallowing, and stammered, "It looks... like a fairy." As if hearing the discussion of two young girls in the distance, Xiao Yin straightened up, smiled and waved to this side.

"Ah, look... she has a shadow! She dares to come out during the day, she is not a ghost!" The setting sun dragged the shadow of the woman in purple for a long time. Amy caught a glimpse of it and cried out as if she had discovered a new land. Breathe a sigh of relief. "Ha, Xiaomei, are you serious? I'm just talking nonsense." Lu'er didn't bother to talk to her any more. She glanced at the beautiful girl in purple, waved her hand, and turned into the side road home by herself.Suddenly remembered something, turned the front of the car and rode back, took out a book from the schoolbag and stuffed it for Amy, blinked: "By the way, I've finished reading this book—bring me another book written by Shen Yin tomorrow." Originally! Don't forget!"

"Isn't it good? Hehe, you read novels one by one a day, are you still taking the college entrance examination?" Amy blinked, but couldn't help being happy. "Don't forget!" Luer waved to her partner and left. "Little girl, I saw you again—do you live near here?" Under the road sign, Xiao Yin greeted with a smile. "Well, yes. My name is Amy, and I live in the Cuiwei community on the other side of the green forest." Amy responded politely, and Amy stopped the car, jumped off, and saw the other party holding a large bag of milk in his arms Newspaper, can't help but startled.

"Oh, I'm used to writing at night and sleeping late during the day, so I have to get milk, newspapers, etc. in the afternoon." Seeing the girl's gaze, Xiao Yin smiled and explained, "Originally, the evil spirits took these for me. But today he has something to go out." To ward off evil... Could it be the man who came to her last night? Amy didn't ask, just smiled and looked at the beauty in front of her.Looking at her under the setting sun, she was much clearer than yesterday—she suddenly understood the reason why she called herself a "little girl"—and taking a closer look, Xiao Yin didn't look as dreamy and beautiful as last night.Her face was too pale, and even with makeup on, she couldn't conceal the tiredness and vicissitudes in her eyes.

Her face is still beautiful, but the complexion of a young woman, but her eyes silently reveal her age and experience - so profound and complicated that there is no end in sight. "Well... Have you finished writing the article last night?" Suddenly realizing that it's not good to just stare blankly at the other party, Amy blushed a little and asked tentatively. "I wrote some, do you want to read it?" Xiao Yin replied, smiling slightly, making an invitation gesture.The long black hair slipped from her loose bun, making her face look even more pale. Amy originally wanted to say no, but when she looked at the girl in purple, her eyes seemed to hide the monster of the night, flickering, seductive and provoking curiosity——

"Okay, okay!" Her throat was hoarse, Amy moistened it a bit before making a sound, and looked at the ground - where the setting sun cast Xiao Yin's long shadow on the ground. Locking the car on the railing beside the road sign, Amy followed Xiao Yin to the depths of the forest. The ground is full of wood sorrel, which has not bloomed, and it is soft to step on, without a sound.Amy followed behind her, and vaguely smelled the fragrance of the girl in purple—I don't know what kind of perfume it is, it smells cool, but very light. "Xiao, Miss Xiao, do you live here and write novels?" Ai Meimei was speechless all the way, and it was easy for Ai Meimei to think of another thing to say, so she asked carefully, looking at the slender fingers of the girl in purple.

His fingers are long and slender, his nails are painted with transparent nail polish, and on his slender wrist is a transparent and colorful glass bracelet, which is delicate and elegant.She remembered that Teacher Fang, who taught Chinese, also had the same type of hands, but they were not as good-looking.Amy's heart suddenly moved, and she stared at the bracelet on the opponent's hand—strange, this style of bracelet... It seems, where have you seen it?Especially the animal head pattern carved on it, it seems that some collections at home also have it. "Hmm..." Just leading the way, Xiao Yin's answer was a little careless, as if thinking about something else, the sunlight leaking from the leaves was changing on her body, she replied casually, "I've been They all like to write stories, and then they slowly make a living from these stories. I live here just to write in peace..."

"Ah! Then Miss Xiao, you are a writer, aren't you?" Amy jumped up excitedly, with an expression of "as expected", looking at her half envious and half strange. Xiao Yin finally stopped in his tracks, turned his head and smiled at the girl, and said lightly: "A writer? That's not called it - what I write is just far-fetched stories, all of which are divorced from reality, and some people think it's completely nonsense That's all." "Well... what's the matter with the story? I just like to read it. If I didn't read those novels, my Chinese wouldn't be that good. My composition won prizes all over the country! By the way, have you read Shen Yin's book? I've read all of the "Lost Continent" series, and it's so good!" Amy retorted unconvinced, and inadvertently revealed the secret that she was still peeking at idle books when the final exam was approaching, and she immediately came back to her senses, "Oh, you But don't tell my mother...you must never say it. " Xiao Yin laughed, and turned his head to look at the eighteen-year-old girl, the light in his eyes flickered.After walking for a while, he turned left, settled down, and said to Amy, "Here we are—it's the white house in front." Suddenly a bright light appeared in front of my eyes. The gloomy light in the woods suddenly became the glare of the setting sun, and it shot towards the face without any cover, making Amy's eyes closed for a while before opening them again.As soon as the road turned, it turned out of the dense forest, and there was an open river beach outside - that was the only river in Haicheng: Henghe. It was the dry season, the water in the Henghe River was very shallow, most of the riverbed was exposed, and there was a vast expanse of white pebble beach everywhere, dazzling people's eyes under the setting sun.On the other side of the river beach, there is a brand new two-story white house.The appearance is common in Haicheng, with a black sloping roof, a dark red door, and unblooming wood sorrel in front of the house. Very clean house, but very ordinary. However, the moment Amy opened her eyes, she was stunned. The desolate river beach with white pebbles, the two-story white house...that dream!Everything was exactly like her dream! The coldness and fear felt at that moment are not something ordinary people can bear. Ai Meimei didn't run away easily, but she didn't dare to look at the woman in purple beside her - for fear that when she looked up, she would see a miserable and resentful woman The appearance of a ghost. "Ah? What's the matter, Amy?" Xiao Yin's voice was suddenly heard next to his ear, and he asked, "Aren't you going?" Exhausting her strength to control herself, Amy turned her head inch by inch, looking at the girl in purple beside her.However, Xiao Yin still just smiled like that, beautiful and quiet.Under the setting sun, her shadow stretched very long. "Well, um...it's just too beautiful..." She hesitated, she answered, and then followed Xiao Yin across the river on the white stone pier.The river is clear and shallow, very lovely. The garden in front of the house is not surrounded by railings, it is just open, and the courtyard is not well maintained, but any piece of wild wood sorrel is full of vitality. Under the setting sun, Amy followed Xiao Yin to the front of the new house, watched the girl in purple walk up the steps, took out the key and prepared to open the door.However, as soon as the key was inserted into the lock, the door opened without a sound. "Oh, have you come back yet?" She saw Xiao Yin say something to the person behind the door, and ordered again, "Light up the incense." Then she turned her head under the porch and beckoned her to come in.Amy watched her flash into the room, but she froze on the steps, staring blankly at the dark red wooden door. What's behind the door?
