Dawn of a New Era

Before Chen Xingyue could question again, Chen Shouyi quickly found an excuse and left quickly.

When he returned to the hotel again, he couldn't help but sigh.

The days of freedom are over.

He originally wanted to stay until the agreed training period ended, but he didn't expect to be so unlucky that he was caught by Chen Xingyue.

He sat for a while and had to pack his luggage.

Looking at the big and small bags of food that were snapped up today, Chen Shouyi thought about it and decided to put it here.

First, it doesn’t make sense to buy these things by yourself, and it will easily arouse the suspicion of parents. Second, the hotel has been booked for half a month, and there are still six days left. He is not short of money now. Instead of checking out, it is better to have a supply at any time place of supplies.

What's more, the address of his courier is written in the hotel room, and in the current form, he doesn't know when it will arrive.

When the time comes to check out the room, it will be more troublesome.

...

Dad! Mom! I'm back.

The doors of the restaurant were closed, apparently business had ceased.

Hearing Chen Shouyi's shout, after a while, the iron sliding door opened, and Mother Chen and Chen Dawei came up to meet him.

Shouyi, why are you back? Mother Chen asked.

Chen Shouyi immediately repeated his previous excuse.

It should be a holiday. I didn't feel it yesterday. This morning, I feel that everything has become weird. My heart has become agitated. Chen Mu's tone was a little uneasy.

Don't talk nonsense. Chen Dawei said, and then he avoided the topic as if nothing had happened, and said with a smile: Why have you been out for a few days, and you feel a lot whiter and more handsome.

This question finally came up. Chen Shouyi calmed down and said quickly, The training camps are all indoors, probably because they haven't been exposed to the sun for a long time.

It seems that you really need to spend less time in the sun, and it looks much more pleasing to the eye now. Mother Chen also laughed.

After that, the two of them never mentioned Chen Shouyi's changes, nor did they get to the bottom of it. Instead, they asked about the training camp.

Are you eating well?

How is your relationship with other students?

Did the training work?

Chen Shouyi had already had a secret plan on the way here, so he answered them one by one.

That's it!

He still has a lot of plans for the future, which are useless.

Chen Shouyi's heart was suddenly touched. Sometimes the big things you think you can't face may not be big things to your parents. As long as you are healthy and safe, that's enough.

...

After a while, Chen Xingyue also came back. She didn't bring any good news. Besides daily necessities, the shelves of supermarkets such as non-staple food were already empty.

Fortunately, I bought a lot in the morning! Mother Chen said presciently.

Chen Shouyi felt that his mother was overreacting. As a restaurant owner, even if he didn't go snapping up, they would always have things like wine and food on hand. If it were a family of four, they probably wouldn't be able to eat them all in a month.

After dinner, when Chen Shouyi and Chen Xingyue walked upstairs, Chen Xingyue suddenly said mysteriously.

Brother, let me tell you something. After you left last night, the uncle Wang who ran the grocery store in our community died!

Ah, I'm usually quite tough, why is it so sudden? Chen Shouyi said in surprise.

This generation used to be a rural area, and it has only been a few years since it was classified as an urban area. He basically knows all the neighbors.

But it's limited to familiarity, if you really want to have feelings, then it's a bit fake.

Chen Shouyi was just a little surprised, he thought that was it, but what Chen Xingyue said next was a little weird.

I heard it was a cerebral hemorrhage. When I found out, I was only breathless. Last night, when their family was keeping watch at night, the two sons of Uncle Wang, you also know the virtues, and they all went to sleep after watching until midnight!

Chen Shouyi nodded. There was no electricity last night, and the light from the light candle,

If the children are not particularly filial, they really can't stay.

As a result, when they woke up in the morning, they found that Uncle Wang's body was gone! Guess where they found it?

Where? Chen Shouyi flattered, feeling a little surprised.

They finally found it at the east gate of the community, half a mile away from their house. Do you think it's strange?

Chen Shouyi nodded.

The corpse ran away by itself. If it was before, he would have thought it was a nonsense.

But after meeting the ghost last night, he knew that the world was indeed different.

In the future, it's best not to go out at night. He reminded his sister.

Chen Xingyue was a little uncomfortable with her brother's concern, and said in a twisted way: Of course I know that.

Then he lowered his voice and asked, Brother, do you think there are ghosts in this world?

Don't you know that there are many ghosts and ghosts at night in a different world?

I mean Earth?

So what if there are ghosts? Are you afraid of ghosts? Chen Shouyi gave her a sideways look.

I...Of course I'm not afraid, I'm just asking casually. Chen Xingyue was stimulated by Chen Shouyi's eyes, and quickly said indifferently.

You really want to know?

Speaking of which, I really encountered a ghost last night. At one or two o'clock at that time, I was suddenly awakened by a burst of urination. After waking up, I felt that the air was cold and cold, and the windows were all open. I felt that It's a little strange, this window was obviously closed last night... Chen Shouyi lowered his voice, deliberately creating an atmosphere.

I don't believe your nonsense, just make it up. I'm going back to my room. Watching Chen Xingyue leave quickly as if fleeing.

Chen Shouyi couldn't help laughing, he didn't expect his sister to be afraid of ghosts.

...

Chen Shouyi returned to his long-lost bedroom.

Release Shell Girl from the briefcase.

Shell Girl looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar environment, and was a little dumbfounded: Giant, do you live here today?

Chen Shouyi nodded. This place is no better than a hotel, and the sound insulation is not very good. If you talk to yourself, someone will knock on the door soon.

Why don't you stay where you used to be? Shell Girl asked urgently.

What's the reason? Chen Shouyi couldn't help lowering his voice.

But... but, I... my gemstone. Shell Girl stammered.

Isn't the gem in your hand! Chen Shouyi said angrily.

This is only one, I have one, one! Shell Girl spread her hand pitifully, revealing the glass bead in her hand.

Chen Shouyi was used to her pitiful way of counting, and when he heard this, he looked suspicious and said, When did you have two?

There are only two places for Shell Girl to get the glass beads from him.

One is that she never lets go of what she holds in her hands, even when she sleeps and eats.

The second is to secretly hide in a shell treasure chest buried in sand on a small island in another world.

As for the hotel room, she never puts anything there.

I... I didn't pick you up... I have one or one anyway. Shell girl turned her head with a guilty expression.

Are you sure it's not three hundred taels of silver here.

Chen Shouyi was almost amused, you picked up my glass beads, it's okay.

Fortunately, he didn't bother with her, and if he made it cry again, he would still have a headache. He generously took out a glass bead and stuffed it into her hand: Here, you are satisfied now!

Shell Girl clenched it tightly with surprise on her face, and her face immediately became beaming.

...

In the middle of the night, Chen Shouyi was suddenly awakened by a strange sound.

It seems that someone is defecating in the toilet, but no matter how hard they try, they can't pull it out. It's a very hard um and um sound.

At first, he thought someone in the family was constipated.

However, after listening to it for a while, he felt something was wrong. The sound seemed to come from outside the window, gradually approaching from far away, accompanied by the sound of shoes mopping the floor.

The weather was still hot in October, and he didn't close the window at night, and in the dead of night, his voice was quite clear.

He couldn't help being curious, stood up, and looked out the window.

Just looking at it, his hair stood on end.

With a physique of 13.8, his eyesight is far better than that of ordinary people. Through the faint moonlight at night, he can clearly see a strange figure tens of meters away, walking slowly towards this side.

He was wearing a shroud, a dark gray shroud, with the golden word Longevity clearly written on it.

On the bluish-white face, the cheeks on both sides were severely sunken, and it looked like a monkey with a sharp mouth. The mouth was half opened, revealing a few scorched teeth. And the piercing hmm sounds came from his mouth.

This is that... Uncle Wang!
