"Don't be afraid, I just want to find someone to talk to." Chi Xiaowan said lightly, walked to the portrait and looked at Cong Yi'er in the portrait. One was Chi Xiaowan in reality, and the other was Cong Yi'er in the portrait.
I mean, none of them can really know the existence of the other! "It's been too long, and I'm not used to being awakened suddenly. The woman in this painting is me, and I am the woman in the painting. It's very strange, it's really
It's very strange, I can't sense her, and she can't sense me, we just wander outside of memory."
The two thieves looked at each other, not knowing what to say. The woman in front of them was real, a real person. However, it seemed that she was just a body, but her soul was floating around, as if she was a ghost, talking in the body. Some of them
Weird, but not scary. Because Chi Xiaowan's face was calm and her smile was gentle, which gave her a very noble feeling.
"Is it weird?" Chi Xiaowan turned around and looked at the two people with a smile, "You can remove your coverings. Here, as long as the red candle is not lit, there will be no gas that can hurt people. Here, it appears again, just
In order for souls to meet again."
The two thieves awkwardly took off the things covering their mouths and noses and tried to breathe. It was a little damp and stuffy, but there was no special smell.
"More than twenty years ago, before I was born in reality, Ouyang Ruixiang discovered this old site. However, he did not have the climate today at that time. In order to make this old site his unique discovery,
He concealed what he discovered at the time, and just quietly took away an item, and that item was the only 'key' to unlock all the past." Chi Xiaowan sat down and looked at the two thieves in front of him, very patiently
Said, "This item is to wake me up from my sleep, bring him back who is far away, and give us a chance to meet again. However, the memory has disappeared between us. We cannot remember each other and cannot find each other."
His love makes the soul put its memory here to sleep, never leaving his breath, but the hatred generated by love blocks us from remembering each other's past. And he put all his love here, in this painting
, place it carefully next to the memory of my sleeping soul."
Chi Xiaowan stopped, looked at the painting, lightly traced it with her fingers, and sighed, "The tear stains on it make it impossible for me to leave, forget, or think of it. - Doesn't it sound a little messy? In fact, everything is messy.
Yes, how can I wake myself up?"
"Didn't you tell me clearly now?" A thief said boldly, "Didn't you tell everything now? Can't you remember who you are now?"
Chi Xiaowan smiled softly, "You hear the body speaking, right? But I am an erratic soul. I live in this body, but all the past is sealed in this painting. Who do you think I am? Now in reality
The me I am or the me I used to be?”
The sweat on the thief's forehead was flowing very fast. They were afraid. Although the other party was gentle and her smile was very friendly, the words she said were terrifying to the ears. Is she a human or a ghost? Why is this place like this?
Evil?
"After you go out, you must destroy the pair of red candles. Just put them in the sun. After 24 hours, they will melt. Love and hate will fade away in the sun. This solidified love and hate are just barriers.
I have lost my memory, but I can't stop the ongoing time." Chi Xiaowan walked gently to the red candle, "I don't know who wants it so much, but the price of getting it is the loss of life, which is too unfair.
It's worth it. If you remember me, if I can leave, think of the past, and find the past, I will destroy it with my own hands, dry all the past into dust in the sun, and forget it."
The thieves felt like they were suffocating.
"Okay, let's go. They are about to wake up. I can't stay for a long time. I just woke up and am very tired. Staying in my real body for too long will hurt her." Chi Xiao
Wanwan said tiredly, "Besides, they are about to wake up and see how you explain."
"Then, then, what to do with this candle?" the thieves stuttered.
"You can't stop what's coming, let it go." Chi Xiaowan smiled faintly, "As long as you don't light them, they won't hurt anyone, and they will disappear in the sun. However, you have to think about it.
, take them away, and you will live in guilt all the time, because they will end the lives of your buyers. Unfortunately, there is nothing I can do."
The two thieves looked at Chi Xiaowan stupidly, not knowing whether to leave or not.
Chi Xiaowan smiled faintly, raised her hand, and all the lights on the wall turned on, illuminating the entire passage, which was unusually bright. "Okay, let's go. This is not a place where you can stay for a long time. Be careful on the way.
, after some time, the alarm will be restored."
The two thieves turned around stiffly like fools, hugged the red candle and ran out in panic.
Chi Xiaowan watched the lights on the wall go out one by one behind the thief. The expression on her face became quieter and quieter. A sense of tiredness made her gently close her eyes and fall asleep on the table next to her.
.
The rain outside was quiet and cold.
The two thieves jumped into their car, started it, and drove away.
Turning his head, the pain was excruciating. Ouyang Ruixiang tried to open his eyes, but his vision was a little blurry. What time was it? What's wrong? Why did he sleep so deeply?
"Uncle Ouyang, are you awake?" Chi Xiaowan's gentle voice sounded in his ears.
Ouyang Ruixiang immediately remembered what happened before he fell into coma, and immediately looked at Hongzhu, "They, they, what happened to them? How -"
"The red candles must have been burning all the time. When I woke up, they had already finished burning." Chi Xiaowan said softly, "My brother woke up first. He was injured on the head, but it didn't seem to be anything serious.
He went up to help you get hot water, but he didn't notify the police because he was worried that what happened here wouldn't be good for you."
Ouyang Ruixiang looked at Chi Xiaowan and remembered that he had injured Chi Xiaomin. He hesitated. It seemed that Chi Xiaomin had not told Chi Xiaowan what happened before. "What time is it now? Where have you been before?"
?”
"Ten hours have passed." Chi Xiaowan replied softly, "Ten hours have passed since I came here. I didn't know where I went before. It seemed a bit like sleepwalking. I only remember waking up.
It was here, in front of this painting, hey, why did this painting suddenly become a piece of paper without any traces?"
Ouyang Ruixiang was stunned, and immediately looked up. The painting was just a piece of plain paper, slightly yellowed, with nothing on it, no portrait, no words!
Chi Xiaowan felt a kind of sadness welling up in her heart, an indescribable feeling, as if something had been reviving in the deepest part of her memory for a long time, but she couldn't tell what it was.
Ever since she was little, she has often been stuck in a dream. In her dreams, she could never find herself. She kept secrets with herself, and she never knew where she had hidden herself! At this time, this was how she felt.
, she seemed to be hiding something from herself, as if she knew she was somewhere nearby, but she just couldn't get close.
"How could this happen? How could this happen?" Ouyang Ruixiang shed tears, the red candle burned out, and the only thing connected with this old site no longer existed!
Chi Xiaowan looked at the sad Ouyang Ruixiang and didn't know what to say. This place did have unspeakable evil. Just like before, she didn't know what was going on, and she wandered around this old site like a sleepwalker.
Over and over again, as if playing hide and seek with myself.
"Professor, what's wrong with you?" Chi Xiaomin came down from above, holding a cup of hot tea in his hand. He was shocked when he saw Professor Ouyang's tearful expression, "What happened? Xiaowan, what's wrong with professor?"
?”
Chi Xiaowan shook her head slightly, not knowing how to explain that her brain was short-circuited now.
"The red candle is gone! The paintings have disappeared!" Professor Ouyang said sadly, "Things that can be used to learn about this old site are disappearing one by one. I will never be able to understand the secrets of this old site in this life. I am ashamed of this old site.
, I discovered it, only to have it disappear in my hands!”
Only then did Chi Xiaomin realize that the painting on the wall had disappeared, and nothing could be seen except for the yellowed paper. "Xiaowan, what's wrong with this painting? I remember, you just stayed in front of the painting.
I fell asleep on the stone platform, do you still remember what happened?"
Chi Xiaowan shook his head and said softly: "I don't remember what happened. It seems to be similar to sleepwalking. I feel like I have been playing hide and seek with myself. The last memory is that I woke up and stayed here."
I looked at the burned out candle, which was like a bright and blooming flower on the table. After thinking about it, I felt that my head still hurt a little. However, the strange thing is that I clearly remembered that Professor Ouyang hit my head yesterday.
Before he passed out, he remembered that his head was bleeding all over his face. However, when he woke up this morning, he didn't find any wounds on his head. He just felt a little headache, as if he had smashed a bag.
"That's it already, Professor, let's find another way. But how do we explain it to the government?" Chi Xiaomin frowned slightly, "Now that the red candle is gone, we can't explain that it was the red candle that burned by itself.
Then it’s gone.”
Ouyang Ruixiang sighed, with a confused look on his face.
Walking out of the old site, it was raining heavily outside. It was rare to see such heavy rain in autumn. It was dense and very cold. Chi Xiaowan tightened her shoulders and walked side by side with Chi Xiaomin.
"Are you feeling better?" Chi Xiaowan looked at Chi Xiaomin, "What's the matter with the injury on your head?"
"Professor Ouyang did it." Chi Xiaomin said disapprovingly, "This old man is a lunatic when it comes to the old address. He wanted to light the red candle. At that time, you suddenly didn't know where you went. I'm worried that you will be influenced by the red candle again.
, so he didn’t agree, so he hit me on the head with something. By the way, Xiaowan, something is very strange. I remember that when I was unconscious, there was blood on my head, but when I woke up
At that time, there was no wound on my head, only a vague pimple, which is really weird."
"So, the blood on the ground is yours?" Chi Xiaowan said softly, "I found blood on the ground, and I was wondering. Uncle Ouyang seemed to be injured too, but there didn't seem to be any blood. I didn't see any blood at that time.
I know where I went. I just remember that I seemed to be standing next to you and listening to you talk, and then I left like a sleepwalker. I knew I was walking, but I didn’t know what I was going to do.”
"Xiaowan, does this old site have something to do with Sima?" Chi Xiaomin asked softly.
Chi Xiaowan was stunned and looked at his brother.
"If it weren't for your relationship with Sima, you wouldn't be so concerned about the situation of the old site all of a sudden." Chi Xiaomin said with a smile, "You have always been a quiet girl and never take the initiative to get anything. You seem to be born to use it.
Those who are waiting, remember that when you were a child, you always chose to wait quietly on the side. No matter how lively the occasion was, you could wait with peace of mind. But now, there can only be one reason why you are so devoted, that is, you are doing it for Sima,
Sima, is he the descendant of this old site?"
Chi Xiaowan hesitated, "Yes, maybe that's the reason."
"Um, Sima, does he love you with all his heart?" Chi Xiaomin asked hesitantly, without looking at Chi Xiaowan, as if this question made him not so confident.
Chi Xiaowan looked at Chi Xiaomin and felt that the hand holding the umbrella was a little cold. She walked slowly, and after a while, she slowly said: "Love is my own feeling. I love, this is the most beautiful thing."
What’s important is that things in this world cannot always go as planned. Two hearts must be happy. The time and place must be favorable to the people, and it must be just right. Love him wholeheartedly, and that’s it.”
"Xiao Wan——" Chi Xiaomin stopped.
Chi Xiaowan looked at her brother, smiled and said, "Don't worry about me, I'm fine, living in love, fine. What about you?"
