my brother is not human

Xia Zhihan recalled it for a while, and it was indeed the case. When he came back this time, he felt that Minghuai Town was much depressed, many shops were closed, and there were very few people on the street.It's just that he was full of thoughts when he came back this time, so he didn't think much about it. Now that this person said it, he really took it seriously.

Xia Zhihan said, "Why did you move away?"

The man said: "What's so good about this place, why did you move away?!"

Xia Zhihan said, "It feels like there are very few people in the town."

The man said, "There are only old people left."

The two were talking, and they arrived at the wooden house not far away.

There was a person standing at the door, a girl in a sweatshirt.

Xia Zhihan felt that there was something abnormal, so he glanced at her indifferently, but that person didn't introduce him to him.

Xia Zhihan was invited into the room. The inside and outside of the room are two completely different worlds. Inside, the lights are on, the TV is on, and the quilt is warm and colorful. Inside the colored cloth curtain.

Old Zheng poured wine for him, Xia Zhihan took the bowl and drank it, the bowl was very cold, the wine was very hot, with an impure taste.

The man said: "My surname is Zheng. You can call me Lao Zheng. I have been watching Linzi for more than ten years, and I have met many people."

Xia Zhihan said, "Oh? Then tell me who I am?"

The man said, "You, you must have come here to make an idea of ​​that stone pillar?"

Xia Zhihan looked at him and said, "How many people like me?"

The man said: "It was more than two years ago, but not much now."

Xia Zhihan looked at him suspiciously, and the man said: "Looking at you lying there so tired, you have dug up the pillars like that, you must have come to investigate too, there were so many students in the past two years, and every one of them must To investigate, what are the cultural relics and historic sites, let me tell you the truth, this place was built by the town government in [-], when I was in middle school, I saw the pavilion built with my own eyes."

This brother Zheng was drinking white wine while talking nonsense to Xia Zhihan, and the smell of alcohol sprayed his face.

He asked, "How long have you been looking at this mountain?"

Brother Zheng said: "It's been a long time in those days, and that's what my dad did. The people and things I've seen, there are too many. In the past, there were blind bears on this mountain, but now, they are all gone!"

Xia Zhihan said, "You... have you heard about Ming Huaihe?"

Brother Zheng said: "Minghuai River? What's wrong with Minghuai River?"

Xia Zhihan said: "Isn't the other side of the Minghuai Bridge not allowed to go?"

Brother Zheng looked at him suspiciously: "I haven't heard of it, what do you mean?"

Just as Xia Zhihan was about to say something, out of the corner of his eye there was a pair of feet under the blue curtain, wearing blue cloth shoes.

Xia Zhihan said, "How old is your daughter?"

Brother Zheng hiccupped and said, "Ah, I don't have a daughter, I'm a bachelor, that's all right, go to bed quickly, you sleep underground."

Xia Zhihan thought it was weird here, but he was too lazy to think about it, Lao Zheng spread a quilt for him, and Lao Zheng slept on the bed.

He couldn't sleep well, and felt someone's breath hit his face little by little. When he opened his eyes, he saw the girl in the sportswear squatting on the ground and looking at him.

Xia Zhi closed his eyes coldly, he was full of thoughts and planned to continue sleeping.Unexpectedly, the girl came up to him, kissed him on the cheek, smiled at him, and laughed out loud.

Xia Zhihan didn't care that he was eaten tofu, he just found it annoying, so he sat up, looked at her and said, "Get lost."

Xia Zhihan was obviously the kind of demon that everyone was afraid of, and it made the girl cry in fright.

Old Zheng was woken up, and he cursed: "Go away, crazy woman!"

Old Zheng said: "This is a crazy woman in the mountains. If she has no place to live, she always comes to my place. Damn, just pretend you didn't see her and go to sleep."

Xia Zhihan continued to sleep.Unexpectedly, the girl stopped after a few sobs, Xia Zhihan felt that she stuffed something into his palm.

It's a wad of paper.

His sleep was interrupted one after another, and he was speechless. He looked at it by the moonlight, and there were two crooked words written on it with a pencil: "Go!!"

Xia Zhihan glanced at the girl, she was standing at the door, her back was facing the room, her face was facing the door, motionless.

Xia Zhihan turned over and continued to sleep.

Nothing terrible happened, and he slept until dawn.

Lao Zheng was cooking, but the girl had disappeared.

Xia Zhihan stuffed the note into his pocket, said goodbye to Lao Zheng, and went down the mountain alone.

Before Xia Zhihan went to the train station, he went home again, and Xia's mother was still sitting in front of the sewing machine.

Xia Zhihan said, "I'm leaving."

Mother Xia hurriedly stood up, saying that she wanted to pack something for him.

He looked at Xia's mother filling him with a cloth bag full of food, and said, "Mom, I'm leaving, won't you give it to me?"

Xia's mother touched his head, with tears in her eyes, and said: "Where can Mom take you? You have grown up, silly boy, let go of the past and live well."

Without waiting for him to speak, Xia's mother turned around and entered the small dark room inside. She said, "Mom is back in the house."

Xia Zhihan left, carrying the bag full of food.

He got into the car and drove to Harbin along the undulating road.Then, I got on the train from Harbin and headed for Beijing.

From the window of the train, he saw the undulating Northeast Plain all the way to the North China Plain. The mighty long wind has disappeared, and the landform is completely different.One station after another, the high-rise buildings behind are getting more and more prosperous, and he knows in his heart that he has left there.

He thought of what his mother had said to him before leaving.

Let go of the past.

He called Dad Xia just now, and sure enough, he also said how could Mom Xia have died.

Probably he had a dream, and now he woke up.

He felt lonely like never before, as if he was really the only one since he was born, the whole world, the whole universe, he was the only one with his lonely eyes, blinking and blinking, Xia Zhaoyin never existed at all.

As he was thinking, he suddenly saw a figure passing by in the carriage. He couldn't see it clearly in the distance, but it was vaguely the girl in sportswear.

Xia Zhihan returned to the rental room, and it was calm for a while.

Until one day, he went online and opened QQ.

There was actually Xia Zhaoyin's contact information in it. The profile picture was a small plate, and the online name was Absolute Zero. He opened his space and looked, and there were some logs inside. Xia Chaoyin's original self-portraits were gone, and the group photos of his classmates were also gone. no such person.

Xia Zhihan thought, maybe he really made up the character, so there is no image.

He logged on to Xia Zhaoyin's QQ to see who he was in contact with.

He climbed up, but found some problems, some logs were only visible to him.Xia Zhihan opened an article, which was the most recent one.

It reads: "

Xia Zhihan is really not human.Did you trick me into the tour group just to watch him pick up girls?

It was very short, just one sentence, Xia Zhihan opened those diaries one by one, and found that he had been writing this kind of private diary all the time, until 07, when the two of them had just entered junior high school, that is, he had just opened QQ.

They are probably trivial things in life, slandering and slandering Xia Zhihan, sometimes even wanting to kill him, trying to rape him in various ways, so filthy, I don’t want to write it down.

Xia Zhihan finished reading with a blank expression, until he saw the first article.

He opened it, and inside it read: "

If one day I disappear, will you come to me?

Xia Zhihan's mind trembled, did Chao Yin know that he was going to disappear early in the morning?He scrolled down carefully, and it turned out that it was a chicken soup romance article reposted by Zhao Yin, and this was the title.

Xia Zhihan read this romance article, it probably means that the heroine was captured by the power of the family group, and the hero lived his whole life alone, so he couldn't grow old in life, and he couldn't share the same acupuncture point in death.

When summer is at its hottest, cicadas sleep on large leaves and sing on trees.

Xia Zhihan was lying on the bed in the rented room, not wanting to do anything.

At this time, someone knocked on the door lightly, and the roommate, who was always drunk, staggered over and opened the door, and a timid voice came from outside the door: "Is Xia Zhihan there?"

The man left the door open and walked back to sleep by himself.

Xia Zhihan sat up from the bed, only to see a person outside the door who shouldn't be here.He still remembered the crazy girl in sportswear he met on the mountain when he returned to Minghuai Town half a month ago.

Xia Zhihan thought, she must have followed him here, what on earth was he trying to do?

The girl was wearing a sportswear, blue cloth shoes, and two braids. Her eyes were big and terrifying.

She walked over and looked at Xia Zhihan intently.

Xia Zhihan saw that she hadn't spoken for a long time, and was about to lie down and sleep again, when the girl actually spoke, she only said three words, her voice was high-pitched and thin, not very similar to the voice of this age: "Ming Huaihe."

Xia Zhihan's heart twitched, his face was still cold, he asked, "What's wrong with Ming Huaihe?"

The girl stared at him blankly, then suddenly laughed and stopped talking.

Xia Zhihan grabbed her by the collar and asked forcefully, "How do you know that I'm suspicious of Ming Huaihe? What else do you know?"

The girl said: "I can tell you something I know, but..." She gently pushed Xia Zhihan's hand away, and began to clasp her own. She looked like a cute middle school student, but her voice was very loud. It was thin and thin, which was very inconsistent with her appearance.

Xia Zhihan said, "What do you want?"

The girl said, "I want your heart."

Xia Zhihan smiled and said, "I don't seem to have a heart."

The girl shook her head: "Touch your heart, a living person cannot cross the Minghuai bridge, the god of Minghuai needs to be sacrificed."

Xia Zhihan said: "I also heard this rumor when I was young."

He thought for a while and said, "But how can a person walk over when he is dead?"

The girl said, "That depends on your definition of death."

Xia Zhihan changed the subject and asked, "Do you know Xia Chaoyin?"

The girl shook her head.

Although Xia Zhihan was expected, he still couldn't hide his disappointment. He murmured: "He is my younger brother. We have been together. A few months ago, he suddenly disappeared, and then he seemed to evaporate in the world." The same thing, they all said they never had him."

Whether Xia Chaoyin ever existed or not has become the most critical part of the whole matter.Who is right and who is wrong, who is lying, and who is covering up the truth?

"I believe in you," said the girl.

Xia Zhihan was silent for a moment, then said, "Thank you."
