The once huge cemetery later turned into a wasteland exuding a strange and dangerous atmosphere.
Starting from the forest, it is like there is an invisible and intangible prison, trapping the lonely ghosts floating inside.
Passing through the forest, there is an even more desolate area, with loess underfoot, no grass growing, and rugged and uneven mountainous terrain, which is a bit shocking at first glance.
Chi Zao had never been to this land before it was developed in his previous life. After the development, it has become the most famous commercial food street in ten years.
Therefore, this was actually the first time she saw what this place looked like before it was developed.
But she didn't understand why the more she walked in, the more familiar this place seemed to her.
She couldn't figure it out no matter how hard she tried, she could only blame it on the fact that the wastelands were all the same.
until……
The cry of a child suddenly sounded.
Chi Zao was shocked, thinking of that dream, the dream she had when she and Xiao Yu slept together.
In the desolate cemetery in the dream, there were tombstones standing everywhere, some even broken and crooked.
And here...
Chi Zao's face hardened and his eyes scanned the surroundings.
There are no tombstones, but except for the tombstones, everything about this place is exactly the same as in the dream!
If that dream is true...if the little boy in the dream is really Xiao Yu, then what she dreamed about was at least twenty years ago.
Twenty years ago, this was still a cemetery, so there were countless tombstones.
Chi Zao's heart trembled.
And the crying sounds were still coming intermittently.
"Dad...Mom..."
In this desolate place where rumors of hauntings spread, such sudden cries make one's hair stand on end.
Especially since they were talking about ghosts just now.
The expressions of Long Er and Guo Chengming changed the moment the cry came out, and their whole bodies were shaken.
Looking at Chi Zao again, they found that her face was unusually serious, and the two of them became even more panicked.
Could this... be a ghost?
How could an ordinary person appear here?
"Miss Chi, this..." Guo Chengming swallowed.
Chi Zao's eyes flickered, he raised his head and looked at the source of the sound, "Let's go and have a look."
The expressions of the two people behind him changed rapidly, and they followed Chi Zao closely, not daring to miss a step.
The sound of crying came from the front. The deeper Chi Zao walked, the more certain he became that this was the place in his dream.
That place where Xiao Yu was abandoned when he was a child...
Even though there are no tombstones here, there is still a sense of weirdness everywhere. If you look carefully at your feet, you can still see some traces of soil being turned over.
The strange thing is that I didn't see any wandering ghosts along the way.
The crying sound came from behind a big stone.
"Save me...save me..." The voice was very childish, and the cry was very pitiful and sad, "Mom, mom, don't abandon me, don't..."
A child's bare white feet and the thin pajamas were exposed behind the stone.
After approaching, the expressions of the three people who saw this scene changed.
Guo Chengming and Long Er looked at each other.
Is he really a lost child??
Chi Zao, on the other hand, stared closely at the color of the pajamas exposed.
The little boy who looked like Xiao Yu in the dream was also curled up next to the tombstone in pajamas. The color of the pajamas looked exactly like the one in the dream...
She stepped forward with focused eyes.
The crying child seemed to have heard the footsteps, and crawled out from behind shivering, revealing a lovely snow-white face full of tears.
Chi Zao was shocked when he saw his Ultraman pajamas, but when he looked at his face again, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"What a child..." Guo Chengming and Long Er were also stunned for a moment.
What is in front of me is indeed a living child.
He was only four or five years old, wearing thin pajamas, huddled next to a stone, tears welling up in his eyes, looking very pitiful.
Seeing this scene, the two people's original tension and fear dissipated.
Children, they have no attack power, they are not ghosts, so of course they are not afraid.
But they were very surprised and felt pity for the little boy in front of them.
"Oh, brother, sister, brother, help me..." Seeing their little boy cried even harder, he cried and asked for help.
Guo Chengming and Long Er looked at each other, but did not step forward immediately. Instead, they looked at Chi Zao.
"Ms. Chi, why is this child here? He looks so pitiful. Let's go over and have a look..." Guo Chengming frowned and said.
Chi Zao raised his eyebrows slightly and stepped forward.
"Sister..." The little boy leaned on the stone and shivered, watching the three people approaching, his eyes fixed on Chi Zao, who was the youngest and the softest-hearted. "Sister, save me, I'm so scared... wuwu
,Xiaoyun is so scared..."
Chi Zao knelt down in front of him, "Your name is Xiaoyun?"
The little boy nodded pitifully.
"Xiaoyun, why are you here? Where are your parents? What are their names and where do you live? We will take you back." Guo Chengming also squatted down and asked.
Unexpectedly, the little boy suddenly started crying again, with tears falling down. "Oh, oh, I don't know. My mother left me. My mother doesn't love me. They left me here. I don't know where I am."
Where, I'm scared, wow..."
I didn't expect to get this answer.
Guo Chengming and Long Er's expressions changed.
Especially Guo Chengming.
He is also a man with children. Although Guo You is an adult, he has watched him grow up since childhood. After becoming a parent, he cannot bear to see such children suffer.
Guo Chengming couldn't imagine that there could be such cruel parents in this world who would abandon their children and leave them in such a weird and dangerous place.
Listening to Xiaoyun's cries, he angrily cursed, "What kind of parents are these! Damn it!"
He looked at Chi Zao and said, "Miss Chi, why don't you let me or Long Er take Xiaoyun out first? It's so cold here and he wears very little, so don't catch a cold."
As he said that, he reached out to hug Xiaoyun.
Chi Zao suddenly stretched out his hand to stop him.
Guo Chengming was stunned.
Long Er, who had been silent next to him, also noticed something was wrong.
Ever since she heard the cry just now, Chi Zao's reaction was unusual. Even when she saw the child, she didn't show the slightest bit of surprise or worry.
Long Er suddenly realized something and his heart tightened.
"Miss Chi..." Guo Chengming was a little confused and was about to say something when Long Er next to him pulled him and winked at him.
Guo Chengming suddenly reacted and looked at the pitiful little boy.
Chi Zao glanced at him meaningfully, then turned to look at the child in front of him.
He was wearing the familiar Ultraman pajamas and was barefoot. Except for this face, his whole body was almost exactly the same as Xiao Yu in her dream.
However, she will never forget Xiao Xiao Yu's light brown, lifeless, hopeless and empty eyes.
It was different from the wet eyes of the child named Xiaoyun in front of me.
In the dream, he seemed to be unable to cry, his body was covered in dirt and mud, and he just stared blankly into the night.
Thinking of this, her eyes dimmed and she spoke slowly, "Xiaoyun, how long have you been here? Your mother abandoned you, but your pajamas and your little face are quite clean."
