On One Hundred Ways of Breaking the Bends

Lin Yi thought of the tree shadow Qiu Feng saw that night, and hurriedly turned his head to look at Qiu Feng, but his head was straightened and he continued to look at Aunt Xu.

Lin Yi: "What did the dean see?"

Aunt Xu paused and said, "Just on the wall of the yard, he saw a row of shadows."

"shadow?"

"Yes, Shadow!" She half-closed her eyes as if remembering something, "He saw a lot of people, all standing in the yard, digging something."

Lin Yi: "Someone came to steal something?"

Aunt Xu shook her head, "No, it's not a person, it's a real shadow. And there are many trees planted on both sides of the yard in that shadow."

Lin Yi's eyes widened in surprise, and he said in a trembling voice for a long time, "But there are no trees in the yard at all!"

"Yes, there are no trees in the yard at all, but there are shadows, on that wall."

Lin Yi backed away in fear, bumped into Qiu Feng's hand, and held it in his hand. The familiar warmth came over him, and he felt a lot more stable in his heart.

"Then, what is that shadow doing?"

Aunt Xu said: "I was digging. It rained all night that night, and the shadow appeared along with the thunder and lightning. The director stood at the window and watched all night.

We don't know exactly what he saw, but from that day on he was trying to build an orphanage.But at that time the yard had just been renovated, and it was impossible to repair it in a short time, so he started to renovate the interior. "

Lin Yi recalled it and felt that there was no such scene in his memory. "When did that happen? Why do I have no memory?"

"That happened when you were very young, probably when you were two or three years old."

Qiu Feng said suddenly: "I remember Lin Yi said that when he saw Bai Xue, the dean was very young, in his early thirties. According to you, he was already the dean at 27 or [-]? too fast.

With all due respect, does he have some special abilities or..."

Aunt Xu looked at him approvingly and said: "That's right, that's true. His father is the dean of the orphanage, and he gave him the position directly after retirement. Fortunately, he is very capable and has lived up to the old dean's image." painstakingly."

Lin Yi turned around and asked Qiu Feng in a low voice: "Did you think of something?"

Qiu Feng blinked at him, and then asked Aunt Xu: "Then do you know who the previous dean is?"

Aunt Xu said: "I know what you are thinking. I have also checked the files before. There have been five terms from the first dean to the current new dean. The first two deans and the latter It doesn't matter to the three of Sun.

The first dean was a down-and-out godfather who was a friend of the pianist who paid for it.Now these rules are established by him. "

Qiu Feng and Lin looked at each other.

Aunt Xu continued: "The second dean was the apprentice of the first dean. Both he and the first dean had been deans for ten years. Later, because of a catastrophe, he threw himself into the river. The orphan Therefore, the school was closed for several years. It was not reopened until everything was calm, and the principal after the new opening is the grandfather of the current principal.”

She suddenly said so much, which made the two of them a little confused. Fortunately, Qiu Feng was not entangled in this winding story for too long. He quickly asked a question, ending the endless entanglement.

"Then...why are you telling us this?"

As soon as these words came out, several people in the room were stunned. Lin Yi seemed to have realized it, straightened up and looked back and forth, and then fixed his gaze on Aunt Xu's face.

A look of embarrassment flashed in her eyes, then she smiled lightly and said, "When you said Bai Xue's name, I knew that retribution was coming."

Lin Yi retracted his hand, "You said... retribution?"

The light in Aunt Xu's eyes dimmed, she stared at Lin Yi's face and said, "Did you encounter anything different this time when you went back?"

Lin Yi seriously shook his head, paused for a few seconds and then nodded vigorously, "I dreamed of a very strange scene."

Aunt Xu slowly approached him: "What is it?" Her greedy eyes like a hyena preying on her gave Qiu Feng a slight illusion.

Lin Yi recalled with lowered eyes, with a slightly nervous expression, "I dreamed that I was locked in a closed space with light, and my chest hurt so badly but I couldn't move. There was no one around, and I felt like I was somewhere It's very uncomfortable to lie down for a long time."

Aunt Xu lowered her voice and called out softly, "What else? What else?"

Lin Yi glanced at her with some embarrassment, "It's nothing more." He was brainwashed by Qiu Feng's words, and he couldn't separate the black boxes in his dream from the low-quality spy films.

Aunt Xu approached him slowly, "Really?"

Lin Yi struggled and leaned back, "Yes, it's true, I..."

"Aunt Xu, what do you mean by retribution?" Qiu Feng's voice was like a cold spring, dragging Lin Yi out of his chaotic thoughts.He straightened up and sat down beside Qiu Feng.

Aunt Xu noticed that she was a little abrupt, touched her hair as a cover, and sat back in her seat. "Ahem, Lin Yi, do you know that you sleepwalked when you were a child?"

Lin Yi shook his head blankly, "I don't know, am I still sleepwalking?"

Qiu Feng remembered what Bai Shu had said, and only now did he realize that it was not a lie.

She nodded and said, "Yes, you sleepwalk, and it's serious."

Lin Yi patted his head in embarrassment and said, "Hey, I really can't remember this."

"It's normal that you can't remember, because you were too young at that time, and you slept very deeply, and you had no memory at all when you woke up." As for the dean looking for a doctor to treat you, the process was a bit difficult, but you are finally cured." Her expression was very serious, and there was no trace of relief.

Lin Yi was puzzled, and secretly glanced at Qiu Feng, "Then is my illness serious? Are there any sequelae?"

Qiu Feng patted his shoulder, "Don't worry, I guarantee you will have no sequelae." Lin Yi shook his hand off.

Aunt Xu said: "At first you sleepwalked and only walked around the house. The children slept soundly, and the house was dark, so no one noticed you. Then one rainy day, when you had a good time, you opened the door and left the house by yourself. Go to the hall to enjoy the rain. You can't imagine how the dean found you the next morning, I'm afraid I will never see such a nervous face again."

Lin Yi: "...I really don't remember anything."

Aunt Xu: "You said the same thing at the time, but the dean didn't believe it. He even thought your sleepwalking was fake, so he controlled your actions."

Lin Yi: "Control me? But I still go out at night!"

Qiu Feng: "Where was Bai Xue at that time?"

Aunt Xu smiled wryly, looked up into Qiu Feng's eyes and said, "There is no such person as Bai Xue."
