The tree demon seizes the house and chases after the wife

Open the door, the familiar yet unfamiliar courtyard.

After placing the narcissus, Jiang Bai held the key and opened the room he used to live in.

The dust that hits the face has the smell of old times.Jiang Bai found some old feather dusters in the corner, cleaned them up briefly, and then went out to worship his parents.

Hua Mian has been silently following behind Jiang Bai, watching her clean up her room and get her mood in order.

"Mom and Dad, I'm back to see you."

The parents' cemetery is in the field. Jiang Bai wiped the dusty tombstone clean and put the prepared flowers on it with a soft voice.

"My daughter is doing well, don't worry."

There were only crickets and summer cicadas chirping in the field. Jiang Bai wiped the tombstone clean, stood up, and looked at the dead parents in front of him, an inexplicable sadness suddenly filled his heart.

A few years have passed, and the faces of the parents are somewhat blurred in memory, but the only thing that cannot be blurred is the feeling of warmth and joy when the family is reunited.

It's just that feeling, it shouldn't be there anymore.

"I will take good care of myself and not let you worry." Jiang Bai murmured, "You guys should live well down here."

Finely, the sound of the wind blowing through the leaves echoed.

Seeing the moisture in Jiang Bai's eyes, Hua Mian also felt sad.

"Uncle and aunt, I will take good care of her." Standing beside Jiang Bai, Hua Mian heard herself say, "Please rest assured and leave her to me."

No one answered, only the sound of the wind in the air.

Jiang Bai naturally couldn't hear Hua Mian's words.She looked at her mother's tombstone which had been wiped clean, and was speechless for a long time.

In fact, there are many things that she wants to tell her mother, such as the things she encountered, grievances, dropping out of school, drinking, working, fighting, and... She likes the person she likes very much.

But she couldn't say it, she was afraid that if she said it, the underground mother would worry about her.

After burning the paper money and doing what he should do in worship, Jiang Bai took one last look at his parents' tombstone before turning and leaving.

Lonely and lonely, full of depression.

Hua Mian really wanted to hold the girl's hand, but when she touched it, she could only feel nothingness.

There are rumors.

Jiang Bai stopped and looked at his hands.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but I always feel that...someone is watching her.

Gentle, gentle, eyes.

She looked back and saw only her parents' tombstones.

Closing his eyes, Jiang Bai turned his head and left.

Back in the courtyard, Jiang Bai cleaned up and down the yard, but only picked up familiar things, so it was hard to avoid seeing things and thinking about others.

After Jiang Bai cleaned up the yard, it was already dark, and he raised his head slightly as if he just remembered something.

Once upon a time, there was a tall tree with the luxuriance that covered the roof in summer and the beauty of broken jade branches in winter. Looking up from the front of the hall, you could always see its branches and green leaves, as well as the leaves from the leaves. Fragments of sunshine sprinkled in the gaps.

But looking up now, I can only see the dark sky due to dusk, and the blood-colored sunset on the horizon.

That tree has long since disappeared, and it has become a landscape that can only be found in memory.

The black-haired girl stared blankly for a while, then said softly, "Hua Mian."

Hua Mian was shocked, and subconsciously responded, "Yes."

"..."

Naturally, Jiang Bai couldn't hear Huamian's answer, so he just murmured.

The so-called things are different, but that's all.

She stayed in place for a long time, and then slowly went to the backyard.

The backyard is bleak, the once big tree now only leaves a huge stump in the corner of the backyard, and a few tiny sprouts emerge from the edge, faintly adding a bit of fresh green to the backyard.

Looking at the tree stump, Jiang Bai felt a really sad feeling in his heart.

Although I knew it a long time ago, when I actually saw it, it was still a little hard to breathe.

Jiang Bai squatted down, and his slender, white fingers slowly brushed the tree stump round and round, the annual rings that gradually became blurred due to the wind and rain, thin, dense, round and round.

Hua Mian of her family has lived for many, many years.

It is she who counts one by one, and also countless years.

It's just that Hua Mian, who has lived for such a long time, was cut off before she had time to come back.

"……sorry."

The black-haired girl pressed her cheeks against the tree stump, on the rings of rings that were so dense that they were countless. The air was filled with the moisture after the drizzle, with the smell of green trees and soil, and the cold Feeling it coming from his cheek, Jiang Bai said in a low voice, "I should... come back to see you earlier."

Hua Mian, who was following the black-haired girl, stared blankly at the girl who put her cheek on the tree stump, feeling inexplicably painful.

... Has she finally waited?

After so many years, she finally waited until she remembered and came back to see her.

But, it's still too late.

In the sound of piano and sword, the moon is invited to drink, and in the depths of trees and clouds, I embrace flowers and sleep.

Hua Mian slightly raised her eyebrows.

"Mianmian."

The black-haired girl's voice softened slowly, "I miss you."

"I miss me, but I never came back to see me." Hua Mian couldn't help but speak from behind the black-haired girl, her voice full of resentment.

It's just that no matter how much she complains, she can't ignore her heartbeat when she heard the sound of "Mian Mian".

...After so many years, she finally heard her Ah Bai calling her to sleep.

Naturally, Jiang Bai couldn't hear Hua Mian's complaints, so he just continued on his own, "...Life in the city is not good at all. Although there are good-looking candies, they are not mine."

"I always feel that after leaving here, I always lose more than I gain."

There are many, many words, the things that I want to confide in front of my parents' grave but dare not say, but here, I always have a lot of freedom.

Not because of anything else.

Just because this is Huamian.

It's the best friend who grew up with her, the one who went through the blissful and happy times together, her only partner, Hua Mian.

Hua Mian looked at Jiang Bai, the black-haired girl had pure softness and trust in her black eyes, and her voice was gentle, as if she had removed all her armor and held her heart in front of her.

It's not like facing Gu Li's indifference.

This is... her Ah Bai, facing Hua Mian, the unique warmth and love.

"Actually, I've wanted to come back a long time ago."

The black-haired girl paused slightly.After a while, I continued, "...but, at that time, when I heard that you were gone, I didn't dare... and didn't want to come back."

Hua Mian was taken aback.

"I always feel that if you're not here, it doesn't make sense for me to come back." Jiang Bai stretched out his hand and gently stroked the green shoots growing beside the tree stump. His voice was soft and sentimental, "Later..."

Later, on the line of life and death, he died in Huangquan.

Hua Mian frowned slightly, and filled in the rest of Jiang Bai's words in her heart.

I never came here again, just take a look.

Jiang Bai stood up, looked at the tree stump, and smiled slightly as if remembering something, "...Later, I met a beautiful girl."

"If you don't want to miss Sichuan, you forget to go back to your hometown."

Hua Mian: "..."

It's just that the pretty girl couldn't spend a spring and summer with her.

Thinking of this, the girl's smile gradually became a bit bitter, but she didn't need to say anything.

The sky was getting dark, and there were faint morning stars in the east.

"That girl must like you very much." Hua Mian murmured behind Jiang Bai, "Because A Bai has been self-willed since she was a child, she won't like people who don't like her."

"If Ah Bai likes someone, that person must... must, like Ah Bai very much."

Jiang Bai couldn't hear Hua Mian's words, he just looked at the tree stump, and after a long silence, he slowly said, "The girl who made me forget to go back to my hometown disappeared later, and I couldn't find her no matter what."

"...You didn't look for it at all, how did you know you couldn't find her?"

Hua Mian couldn't help opening her mouth, tears slowly overflowing from her eyes, "She likes you so much, why don't you look for her?"

Take a look, turn your head, the girl you like so much, the girl who makes you want to leave, is always by your side.

Why...why don't you want to look for it?

The wind is getting louder.

Jiang Bai felt a little cold, she looked at the stars in the sky, and then said, "Then, I went to another place."

"That place won't be like here, it will have very cold snow."

She said slowly, "If Mianmian goes there, she won't feel cold in winter."

Hua Mian lowered her eyes, her long black hair fell down to her ankles, and her wide long sleeves fluttered in the wind. Looking at the back of the black-haired girl, she felt very sad in her heart.

She wanted to tell Jiang Bai very much.

That city was the coldest city she had ever been to.

Ah Bai in that city was cold and proud, stubborn and sad.

"...Although it's cold here, my heart is always warm." Hua Mian said.

"Then, there, I met a very good girl." Jiang Bai looked at the tree stump under the night, the growth rings on it became blurred, she sighed, "It's just that I'm not her lover."

Hua Mian was slightly taken aback.

"That girl is very similar to the girl who makes me so happy to leave." Jiang Bai murmured, "Sometimes, I wonder if they are alone."

"But this is unfair to everyone."

Hua Mian: "..."

"But... Mianmian." The black-haired girl seemed a little cold, she folded her arms, and slowly squatted down, huddled up, staring blankly at the sprout on the tree stump, "I'm alone, it's too cold .”

"I'm getting used to two people being together... alone, it's really cold."

"I know it's wrong...it's not fair, but Mianmian..."

"Maybe I...can't last long."

"..."

There was a gentle breeze at night, the girl's black hair was slightly raised, and her cheeks were faintly pale.

Hua Mian looked at Jiang Bai, feeling slightly sour.

Accept it if you like it.

Because... from beginning to end, from beginning to end, the person Ah Bai likes is her Hua Mian.

The author has something to say: It's really cold today.

It's snowing, super big.

☆、Wish (repair)

"There are no demons in this world."

"If you have too much obsession, you will become a demon."

"Why should I trust you?"

"You don't have to believe me."

The exorcist's smile was firm and indifferent.

Gu Li frowned slightly, his expression was cold, and he didn't say much.

It seems that you don't believe it, but it doesn't matter anymore.

After Xin Cha left the hotel, it was already dark.Looking at the flashing neon lights by the side of the road, the woman slightly raised the corners of her lips.

The weak soul curse has been cast, that tree demon... huh.

only……

It's been that long.

The woman's eyes slowly dimmed.

Why hasn't that silly cat come back yet?

=====

Jiang Bai only stayed in his hometown for one night.Hua Mian didn't stay with her for long, because it's very likely that Gu Li would wake up after being away from her body for too long.

It's just that when we rushed back, it was already early morning, and the girl with warm brown hair was sleeping peacefully on the bed, but Hua Mian still noticed that she had woken up.

"..."

That's interesting.

But so what, it's just mere human beings.

The sky in the east turned fish-belly pale, and the eyes of the girl who woke up again were slightly strangely light green, and the blue earrings on her left ear shimmered. Hua Mian looked at her slender wrist and smiled slightly.

Ah Bai...should be back today.

Jiang Bai was going to take a look in the city after cleaning up the old house.

The weather today is really nice.

Putting the daffodils on the sunny window sill, Jiang Bai took a feather duster to dust off the dust on the closet, and stretched out his hand to open the closet door. For some reason, the moment his hand touched the handle of the closet, his mind suddenly flashed Past fragments of broken memories.

Distant, boundless wind and sand.

The dilapidated city walls, the travelers in single clothes, starved to death.

The prosperity of singing and dancing, the silhouette of the vicissitudes of time.

Then came the childish voice of a girl.

——"Invite the moon to drink with the sound of the piano and sword, and sleep with flowers in the depths of the trees and clouds."

Jiang Bai's pupils shrank slightly.

This... doesn't seem like her memory.However, these memory fragments that suddenly appeared disappeared in the blink of an eye.Jiang Bai was in a daze for a moment.

What happened to her just now?

It seems that I think of a lot... not her things.

Rubbing his temples with some headaches, Jiang Bai sighed, thinking that he didn't sleep well, and accidentally remembered the dream he had last night.

But within a few steps, fragments of memory began to sweep in again.

This time it is no longer a fixed perspective and the same thing as other people's memories, the blurry scene slowly becomes clear, the wardrobe opened, the pajamas scattered, the rabbit gloves on the floor and the scarf where every detail is extremely clear, and the girl Drunk murmur.

——"Ah Bai..."

Jiang Bai subconsciously squeezed the feather duster tightly, his finger bones turned blue, and his mind went blank.

That time...after being drunk...she remembered what she saw.

In Gu Li's house, from Gu Li's cabinet, the ones she gave to Chu Yue belonged to... Chu Yue's things.

Looking at the narcissus on the window sill, Jiang Bai thought of Gu Li's scent that was exactly the same as Chu Yue's, as well as his very similar demeanor and movements when speaking, and froze in place for a moment, not daring to move.

...impossible, non-existent.

In this world, such absurd things cannot exist.

impossible.

But what if it's true.

She never believed in ghosts and gods, but at this moment, she was willing to believe.

It cannot be denied that there is a glimmer of hope in her heart after all.

"A Yue."

Jiang Bai slowly closed his eyes.Even though she knew it was impossible, she still couldn't help guessing and believing.

Maybe she was wrong.

Maybe Gu Li just has a relationship with A Yue that she doesn't know about.

Maybe……

However, no matter what it may be, Gu Li and Chu Yue must have a certain connection.

And this connection...she wanted to know.

Jiang Bai slowly raised his eyebrows, took out his phone, and looked at his phone contacts.

The first one to go to the top is the one who will never wake up.

But the second one, who did not know when, had already turned into Gu Li.

From time to time, he would send messages for various reasons to harass him, the head of the dessert shop, Boss Gu, Gu Li.

The last message in the inbox is still that sentence.

【Rest early when you are tired. 】

Jiang Bai frowned slightly, knowing that it might be wrong to do so, and she might be sorry for Gu Li, but she still couldn't help it, and wanted... at least, she wanted to understand the relationship between Chu Yue and Gu Li.

Slender and fair fingers slid across the screen, and Jiang Bai entered the message word by word.

[Boss Gu.Let's play a game. 】

The long eyelashes trembled slightly, and Jiang Bai pressed send.Then type the second message slowly.

The warm sunlight shines into the room from the window sill, and the beautiful beam of light illuminates the flying dust.

It's just that the first message has just been sent, and the second message has not been typed yet, and a message pops up in seconds.

[You dropped your phone?Was hacked? ! = mouth =]

Jiang Bai: "..."

Jiang Bai finished typing the second message without changing his face, and pressed send, his heart moved slightly.

[If you can find me, I will grant you a wish. 】

What is the connection between Chu Yue and Gu Li?

As for Gu Li, he didn't know where her hometown was.Naturally, there is no way to find her.

If Gu Li were Chu Yue.

As soon as this conjecture came out, it was like a virus invading the computer, occupying all Jiang Bai's thoughts out of control.Simply can not stop.Jiang Bai's breathing became slightly heavy, with indescribable tension.

——If Gu Li is Chu Yue.She will naturally know where she is and where she will wait for her.

Not for anything else, just because she is Chu Yue.

Hua Mian, who received the message over there, stopped immediately when she was replying to the message.His brown eyes froze slightly.

Abai means...

If you find Abai, Abai will be able to grant her a... wish?

[Is it possible to wish for anything? 】

It would be extremely easy for her to find A Bai, but...why would A Bai suddenly say that?

The answer seems self-evident.

Hua Mian looked at the phone screen, as if thinking of something, her hands trembled slightly.

The reply over there was very slow, and it took a few minutes before a message popped up.

【Well, any wish is fine. 】

After Jiang Bai finished replying, she put the phone in her pocket, her eyes were lowered, with complicated emotions in her black eyes.

If it's you... of course, you can do whatever you want.

if not you.

Then take it as giving yourself a chance, and give her a chance too.

Thinking of the familiar scent of flowers, as well as the scarves and gloves that fell out of the closet, Jiang Bai's heart began to tremble slightly.

—Will you love me no matter who I become?

--Yes, I will.

Is that you... Chu Yue.

Jiang Bai packed his things, closed the gate of the courtyard, took the narcissus and luggage, took the bus, and went back to the city.

A strange guest came to the dessert shop in front of No. [-] Middle School.

The guest is very good-looking, with long black hair tied into a ponytail, no bangs, a smooth forehead, cool eyes, wearing a simple T-shirt and jeans, likes to order a cup of mango patch, sits by the window, and sits on the toilet is all day.

The students are all in class, not on Sunday, the business of the dessert shop is deserted, and there are often customers sitting here for a rest, which is not surprising, but what is strange about this customer is that she has been here for two consecutive days.

The taste of the dessert shop is still that kind of sweet and greasy fragrance.

The mango pudding didn't even move a sip. The black-haired girl quietly picked up the phone, her eyes dimmed slightly. After thinking about it, she sent a condition later.

[Time limit, three days. 】

It's been two days.

So... can't she find her?

Jiang Bai put down his phone, unable to express the complicated feelings in his heart.

So, how is it possible.

Where will there be ghosts and gods in this world, and where will the dead be resurrected and become someone else?

It's just that such a thing really happened, how could it be her turn to be so lucky, Jiang Bai laughed at himself, not knowing whether to laugh at himself for being naive or stupid.

Mango pudding, sweet and a bit bitter.

When Hua Mian received the message, she had already stood at the gate of No. [-] Middle School for a long time.

From this angle where she stands, Jiang Bai can be seen at a glance, but Jiang Bai may not be able to see her.

[Time limit, three days. 】

This sentence is like an ultimatum.

It's just that after seeing Abai, how to explain it.

The girl with warm brown hair looked at the phone, her eyes dimmed slightly.

It's getting late.

The street lights came on slowly, and the mango pudding of the black-haired girl in the dessert shop bottomed out, her expression gradually faded, she stood up, as if she was about to leave.

Hua Mian understands that if she doesn't come out again...

Maybe, there is no chance.

Take a gamble.

...Explanation, I will talk about it later.

So after Jiang Bai opened the store door, she saw her Boss Gu.

"Found you, little apprentice."

Warm brown long hair hung down and was simply tied into a bundle at the end. The girl's smile reflected the dim street lights, making her look a little hazy.

"Then, you have to fulfill your agreement."

"Fulfill my wish."

However, the girl didn't finish her sentence. What answered her was a hug from the black-haired girl.

The girl's body was warm and soft, holding her so tightly, as if she wanted to embrace her into life, and never let go.

Hua Mian slightly opened her eyes.

Ah Bai...is hugging her?

"Yeah." Jiang Bai's voice was low, unable to hear the emotion inside, he just hugged Hua Mian tightly, "Tell me...your wish."

Hua Mian paused, feeling the warmth of this embrace, her heart pounding, but when she spoke, she still smiled slightly, which was natural and logical, "Little apprentice, let's be together."

"as you wish."

At that moment, the stars in the sky are not as good as you.

Hua Mian smiled, just smiled, but couldn't help but want to cry.

...Don't be lonely anymore, Abai.

How to explain it seems to be no longer important.

Just be together like this.

Jiang Bai's heart was beating slightly, feeling the familiar scent of flowers and eyes, the familiar taste and feeling.

"It's very troublesome to find you." Hua Mian broke the silence, as if explaining, but also as if trying to avoid something, "I checked your mobile phone IP on purpose, and it took me a long time to find this place. Ah Bai is really annoying, three The days are so short, luckily I found you."

"Ah."

Jiang Bai hugged the girl and responded in a low voice, but he didn't seem to really care about this explanation.

"Why did Abai choose to wait for me here?" Hua Mian rambled, "Is it because this is a dessert shop? Ah, the first time we met was in a dessert shop. It is really a meaningful place. Abai is a very What about romantic people..."

"...I like this kind of romance very much."

"I... like Abai the most."

Jiang Bai just hugged the girl, his black eyes reflected the starry sky above his head, and remained silent.

After a long time, she replied in a low voice, "Yes."

In the end... she still made this choice.

No matter who you become, I will love you.

As long as... it's really you.

I am sorry.

The author has something to say: Well, complicated.

Alas, they are all girls, so I can't do anything.

Fix it like this and it looks a little better...?
