Chapter 2

"Sister, ask my dad to take you out later. Take me home. I'm so scared." The little girl looked at Fang Xuan timidly, tears welling up in her big eyes, and she started crying again.

"Okay, but you can ask your father to take me out later." He softened his heart and took the little girl's hand into the dark alley.

As soon as she stepped into the alley, it was pitch black. Fang Xuan suddenly remembered the words of the man in black, "Don't look into the dark place, and don't walk into the dark place." She suddenly felt bad, and she couldn't see the dark road in the alley in front of her.

, how could such a young girl dare to come out alone? Fang Xuan hurriedly withdrew the hand held by the child, turned around and wanted to run out.

"Sister, what's wrong with you?" the little girl grabbed Fang Xuan's clothes and asked, her tone becoming sinister.

Fang Xuan suddenly felt a thousand kilograms of weight falling behind her, unable to run at all. She felt frightened in her heart.

"Meow!" At this moment, a cat meowed in the dark alley, and a white cat jumped out of the alley and ran away from Fang Xuan. The force holding Fang Xuan's clothes disappeared immediately, and Fang Xuan hurriedly ran out of the dark alley.

There were thumping footsteps behind her. Fang Xuan didn't dare to turn around and ran forward desperately, her heart beating wildly.

Within a few minutes, the footsteps behind him got closer and closer, and a hand patted Fang Xuan on the shoulder, "Hey, wait a minute."

Fang Xuan screamed in fright, her feet went weak and she almost fell down.

"Hey, I'll pay you back." The voice behind her was magnetic and a little familiar. Fang Xuan steadied herself and turned around slowly.

With a pair of green eyes, messy hair, and white washed jeans, he turned out to be the owner of the Yin Yang Pavilion - Ye Chen. Ye Chen stretched out his hand in front of her and held a hundred-dollar bill. Crouching at his feet was a man.

A white cat.

After seeing clearly that it was Ye Chen, Fang Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, then clenched her fist angrily and almost punched that beautiful face.

"Do you know that people are scary? You almost scared me to death." Fang Xuan yelled at Yechen angrily.

"I didn't scare you, I just paid you back. Why are you running so fast?" Ye Chen looked at her innocently.

Fang Xuan looked at him speechlessly, her face ashen. After looking for a while, she suddenly stretched out her hand to take the hundred-dollar bill and smiled sweetly at him, "Fifty-five yuan, I won't give it back."

"Why?" Yechen asked puzzledly.

"Mental damages, you almost scared me to death, these fifty-five yuan will be treated as mental damages." Fang Xuan smiled slyly and put the money into her bag.

Ye Chen said nothing and looked at Fang Xuan's satchel with a look of reluctance.

"Did you just see a little girl in red clothes?" After taking revenge on Ye Chen, Fang Xuan's mood began to improve.

"I see, she's home." Ye Chen glanced at Fang Xuan, then looked at her bag

"Her house is really behind a dark alley?" Fang Xuan looked towards the alley. Now the alley was not so dark, and there were dim lights coming from the entrance of the alley. Could it be that she was too worried and had an illusion just now?

Fang Xuan stared at the lights at the entrance of the alley

Guangfa was stunned, and his silly look was very cute. Yechen nodded and couldn't help but smile. When Yechen smiled, Fang Xuan suddenly felt as if there was a bright sun rising in front of her eyes. She lowered her head and secretly touched the corner of her mouth.

Fortunately, I didn't drool.

"Goodbye, I'm going home." Fang Xuan waved to Yechen in a good mood. Yechen chased her and almost reached the door of Fang Xu's house. After turning a corner, Fang Xuan arrived home.

"Wait a minute," Ye Chen stopped her and took out a yellow paper charm from his pocket and handed it to her, "Take this."

Fang Xuan curiously took it, and there were ancient traditional Chinese characters drawn on the yellow paper, which was Zhang Fushu. "What is this for?"

"Put it on the door to ward off evil spirits. If you put it on, no dirty things can enter your house." Ye Chen still stretched out his hand in front of Fang Xuan.

Fang Xuan looked at his hand in confusion and took the talisman herself. Why was his hand still stretched out in front of her?

"The talisman is worth fifty-five yuan," Ye Chen shook his fingers and said...

Fang Xuan had the urge to beat him up again. The goodwill she had just established towards him disappeared in an instant. A piece of tattered paper cost fifty-five yuan, so she just went and grabbed it. In fact, she didn't really want the fifty-five yuan, she just wanted to get revenge.

I will return it to him tomorrow. I waved my hand and was about to return the talisman to Ye Chen.

Ye Chen saw through her thoughts and said, "If you go so late during the Ghost Festival, it's easy to bring dirty things home. If you stick this talisman on the door of your home, dirty things will not dare to come in."

Fang Xuan looked around, thought for a while, took out fifty-five yuan from her bag and handed it to Ye Chen, then stuffed the talisman into the pocket of her pants. This talisman was for nothing, anyway, the fifty-five yuan

Money is what he is.

Ye Chen took the money and raised his eyebrows with a smile, turned around and walked back slowly with the white cat.

Fang Xuan's house is an old-fashioned two-story building with a small yard. At the door is a small road that can only accommodate one or two cars. On both sides of the road are buildings as old as Fang Xuan's house.

When Fang Xuan returned home, the door to the courtyard was open. She walked around the house but didn't see Wen Jiaqian. The TV was on in the living room. It seemed that she had gone to visit the house next door.

Fang Xuan walked into the bathroom and took a shower. She was covered in sweat from running just now and was sticky and uncomfortable. After taking a shower, Fang Xuan stuffed the clothes and pants she had changed into into the washing machine. Listening to the sound of the washing machine,

Fang Xuandong raised his head and looked at himself in the mirror, his thin face covered with water drops,

There was a bit of fear in her big eyes, her red and small lips were tightly pursed, and her face was a little pale. Fortunately, her mother was not there, but when she saw her face, she would definitely ask what happened. Fang Xuan looked at it for a moment and grabbed the towel.

Wipe your face and rub your cheeks vigorously with your hands to make them look rosier.

Fang Xuan's father died when she was very young, and it was Wen Jiaqian who raised her up alone. Wen Jiaqian's heart has been broken over the years, and Fang Xuan doesn't want her to worry about herself anymore.

Fang Xuan hung up the towel and looked in the mirror again. The face in the mirror had returned to the unique ruddy color of a nineteen-year-old girl, and her eyes were watery. The nineteen-year-old girl was more beautiful than flowers. Looking in the mirror, Fang Xuan suddenly thought of Ye Chen selling

My own talisman. It's over, it's over, my pants were thrown into the washing machine.

He hurriedly turned off the washing machine, picked up his pants, glanced at Fang Xuan and threw the pants back into the washing machine. The pants were covered with yellow paper scraps, and the talisman paper had been torn up. Fang Xuan sighed depressedly.

Familiar footsteps sounded in the living room, Fang Xuan walked out of the bathroom, and a woman in her forties walked into the living room. This woman's hair was tied high and she looked very similar to Fang Xuan. Although she was over forty, she still had charm, especially

Her eyes were moist and bright. Fang Xuan shouted to her, "Mom, I'm back."

Wen Jiaqian came back from outside with a somewhat excited expression on her face. When she saw Fang Xuan, she immediately said mysteriously, "Fang Xuan, guess who I just saw?"

Fang Xuan sat on the sofa, grabbed the remote control with one hand, and picked up the apple on the coffee table with the other hand. "Have you met an alien?"

"No, it's Li Quan who's back!!" Wen Jiaqian said happily.

"Oh, I don't know." Fang Xuan took a bite of the apple and used the remote control to change the channel. The colors on the TV were shaking and her head was a little dizzy.

"Why don't you know Uncle Li across from our house? You used to pester him when you were a child. I just saw them coming back," Wen Jiaqian took the remote control from Fang Xuan's hand dissatisfied.

The remote control was robbed and the TV stopped shaking. Fang Xuan still felt a little dizzy, "I seem to remember, didn't you say that he went out to find his wife more than ten years ago? He found his wife?"

"Yeah" Wen Jiaqian nodded excitedly, "I just saw his wife Yuzhi. I really can't believe my eyes. Yuzhi was twenty years old when she left. More than ten years have passed and she hasn't aged at all.

, still looks like a twenty-year-old. It's a pity that he is paralyzed and sitting in a wheelchair." At the end of the sentence, Wen Jiaqian's face was filled with regret. Back then, she and Yuzhi were called sisters, and they had a very good relationship.

"Didn't you say that Yuzhi died outside?" Fang Xuan leaned on the sofa and thought of the strange man in black at night. Are the Yuzhi he mentioned and this Yuzhi the same person?

"I haven't heard what Zhang Gui said. Zhang Gui said that he saw Yuzhi being beaten to death by several men in a mountain village in western Hunan. When Yuzhi disappeared, Lao Li almost went crazy with anxiety. When he heard what Zhang Gui said, he

I went to Xiangxi to search for it, and I have been searching for it for more than ten years! I have become extremely thin, and I am still wearing a coat on such a hot day, and it is so loose on my shoulders that it looks like a black coffin." Wen Jiaqian said and sighed.

Take a breath.

Black coffin? Fang Xuan thought of the weird man in black, "Uncle Li, isn't he? His face is very thin and his lips are very red? He has a sad look on his face." Fang Xuan rubbed her temples as her head became more and more uncomfortable.

"Well, have you ever met him?" Wen Jiaqian asked in surprise.

"In the evening, he went to the flower shop to buy white chrysanthemums, which seemed to be given to him Yuzhi. Yuzhi likes white chrysanthemums?" Living people like white chrysanthemums. Yuzhi's hobby is too strange.

"Don't talk nonsense. White chrysanthemums are for worshiping dead people. Lao Li must have bought them to worship ancestors. I originally wanted to go to his house today to see the jade branches, but they didn't come out after they went in. I'll go see the jade branches tomorrow. I'm in my twenties.

We haven't seen her in years. I miss her so much." Wen Jiaqian rolled her eyes at Fang Xuan and found that Fang Xuan was frowning and rubbing her temples. She put her hand on Fang Xuan's forehead and asked with concern, "What's wrong with you? Your head doesn't feel right."

"No, I'm just a little tired. I'm going to bed." Fang Xuan shook her head, stood up, gnawed on an apple, and walked upstairs pretending to be relaxed.

"Did you encounter anything when you came back today?" Wen Jiaqian asked, looking at Fang Xuan's back.

"No," Fang Xuan replied without looking back. She was not sure whether the little girl in red she met today was a human. She didn't want Wen Jiaqian to worry.

Fang Xuan's room is on the second floor, next to the balcony. Through the window, you can see Li Quan's balcony opposite. Fang Xuan glanced at the dark balcony opposite, closed the curtains, and lay down on the bed tiredly. As soon as she got to the bed

Xuan fell asleep in a daze.

I don't know how long I slept, but I vaguely heard a little girl shouting "Sister, take me home, sister, take me home..." The shouting was eerie and penetrated people's hearts like needles.

.

Fang Xuan woke up with a start, and turned on the light with sweat all over her head. She sat on the bed and listened carefully. Except for the ticking of the alarm clock on the desk, there was no sound. After sitting on the bed for a while, her lower abdomen felt swollen, and Fang Xuan felt scared.

I didn't dare to go out. I wanted to hold it in, but I panicked again. After a while, I couldn't hold it in anymore, so I dragged my shoes and quickly ran to the bathroom on the second floor to solve the problem. When I came back from the bathroom, I was sweating nervously, and I lay down again.

She was sticky on the bed, making it uncomfortable to sleep no matter how hard she slept. She felt stuffy in the room and felt dizzy and uncomfortable. After tossing and turning for a while, Fang Xuan got up and decided to open the window for some fresh air. She walked to the window and

Pulling the curtains, the balcony opposite appeared in front of Fang Xuan. Looking at the balcony opposite, Fang Xuan was so frightened that goosebumps stood up all over her body. There were actually two people on the balcony opposite.

I don't know when the moon hung in the sky, and the moonlight filled the house quietly. Through the moonlight, Fang Xuan could see clearly that there was a man and a woman on the balcony opposite. The man was Li Quan, who had been to the flower shop. At this moment, he

The pusher holding the wheelchair looked at the woman in the wheelchair quietly. The woman in the wheelchair was very young, she seemed to be only twenty years old. She opened her hands to face the moon and raised her face, looking like she was enjoying herself.
