Shimmer Forest

When the sky was just turning pale, Su Jin was woken up by the sound of knocking on the roof.

He rumpled his messy hair and looked up to see that the small hole in the roof where he could see the stars was blocked by a brand new plank.

When he walked out of the house wearing a bed sheet, he looked at the roof in a daze.Wu Hao was happily waving a hammer to strike. He was wearing an earth-colored vest, and the solid muscles on his arms were clearly visible.The sweat on his forehead glistened slightly in the mild morning light.

"Yo, nerd, are you awake?" Seeing him coming out, Wu Hao grinned, his teeth looked extraordinarily white against his wheat-colored complexion.

"What are you doing, muscular man?" Su Jin looked up at him, with dissatisfaction in his confused eyes.

"Repair the roof of your house." Without stopping his hands, Wu Hao's sonorous voice was especially clear amidst the noise of beating: "It's going to rain, if you don't repair it, it will leak! "

"How do you know it's going to rain?"

"Just look at the sky." Wiping the sweat off his forehead with his arm, he raised his middle finger at Su Jin contemptuously: "You have read so many books, you don't even know."

"Not everyone has the same animal instincts as you." He replied lukewarmly.Su Jin went back to the house slowly, and walked out again slowly, with an extra book in his hand.

Clumsily climbing up to the roof, he sat beside Wu Hao who was still making noise, and read a book as if no one else was there.

"What book are you reading again?"

"Little Yellow Book."

"Little yellow book? Liar, the book cover is obviously white." Wu Hao finally put down the hammer and pasted it curiously. When he saw the contents of the book, he hurriedly jumped away, his whole face turned red. : "Wow, what is this? Why don't those women wear clothes?"

"I told you it's a little yellow book." Su Jin just gave him a sideways glance as if nothing had happened, and continued to study.

"Why do you have this kind of thing?" Wu Hao rode on the ridge, keeping a distance from him as if hiding from a virus.

"Probably my father hid it." Turning over a page of the book, Su Jin replied casually: "I saw it in the wood sandwich when the floor was broken last time."

"You...you seem to be a shy scholar, but you still read this kind of stuff..." Wu Hao couldn't help but leaned over again, his contempt was beyond words.

"He is a painter, and the study of the human body is compulsory." After throwing out a few words of explanation, Su Jin stared at the pages of the book with rapt attention, and muttered to himself while pinching his chin: "Sure enough, the curves of mature women are more beautiful."

"Mature? Do you like older ones?" Pressing the book in his hand, Wu Hao pointed at his face and smiled brightly: "I'm one year older than you."

Su Jin snatched back the book, looked him up and down, narrowed his eyes and asked, "Do you have curves?"

"I..." wanted to refute something, but there was no way to refute.He scratched his hair a little anxiously, then suddenly stood up and tore open the skirt of his shirt, and said confidently, "At least I have chest muscles!"

Su Jin was taken aback by his sudden action, but because he knew how careless the other party was, he soon felt that he was really stupid, and couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"You, what are you laughing at?" Probably because he was a little embarrassed to be ridiculed, Wu Hao blushed and pointed at him bravado, jumping his feet in anger.Seeing that the other party didn't intend to stop, his face turned even redder, so he pretended to be nonchalant and picked up the hammer again: "Cut, I don't bother to talk to you."

He started "ding ding dong dong" again as if venting his anger. Su Jin watched his broad back and smiled slightly.

When the sun was up, the roof was finally repaired, and Su Jin also dropped the book in his hand boredly, lying on the tiles with Wu Hao, staring at the sky in a daze.

The sky is transparent blue, and the pure white clouds are constantly changing shapes, intertwined in layers, looking thick and full.The chirping of cicadas and the sound of the wind merged into one, gently brushing against their ears.

The scorching sun brings a little tiredness.When Wu Hao was about to fall asleep, he vaguely felt the person next to him stand up.Subconsciously looking over, he suddenly found that the other party had untied the bed sheet as if nothing had happened, and was standing naked in the sun.Fair skin seems as dazzling as the sun.

"Wow, what are you doing?" Frightened out of his wits by his astonishing actions, Wu Hao lost all sleepiness immediately, jumped up and hurriedly picked up the sheet and wrapped him up: "Why are you only wearing a sheet?" , why don't you wear clothes!"

"Because it's hot." Responding to his growl calmly, Su Jin tilted his head, as if wondering why he was so flustered: "Now everyone is on the mountain or in the field, and no one has seen it."

"That won't work either, put it on quickly."

"I'm a kid, so it's fine."

"You are already 14, you are not very small!"

"..." Su Jin tilted his head to look at him again, then let go of the bed sheet and looked down, and said seriously, "Well, it's really not very small."

"That's not what I was talking about!" Almost driven mad by his lack of nerves, Wu Hao rubbed his hair and growled: "Have you got water in your head?"

"You just got water in your head." Not to be outdone, Su Jin cursed back, and Su Jin seemed to think of something suddenly, and even his eyes brightened: "Speaking of water... By the way, drinking some soda can cool you down Well, let’s go to the commissary to buy it now.”

Before he finished speaking, he grabbed the bed sheet and jumped off the roof.

"Please don't go like this, grandma, she is too old to be scared!" Shouting and jumping off, Wu Hao hugged him from behind with lightning speed .

Su Jin looked back at him, her eyes under bangs were extremely clear and clean.The smooth and hot touch on the palm inexplicably made Wu Hao's ears blush.

"Well, what you said makes sense." After thinking for a long time, Su Jin skillfully hid a narrow smile from the corner of her mouth: "I'll go in and get dressed."

Seeing him coming out fully dressed, Wu Hao silently breathed a sigh of relief.Although Su Jin has a lot of reading and knowledge, he really has no common sense in life.I was really worried that he would really run into the forest one day.

"Hey, that's right." The two walked slowly on the road, Wu Hao seemed to suddenly think of something: "I know there is a very cool place on the mountain over there, follow me."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for his answer, she took his hand and ran wildly.

The repeated forest scenery on both sides kept retreating, and the sound of the wind whizzed by, choking out Su Jin's complaining words.He felt like he was almost flying, although his increasingly heavy legs were a constant reminder of the strong gravity of the earth.

After running for a long time, Wu Hao finally stopped. He looked around happily, the exercise just now didn't consume much of his energy.

But Su Jin was so exhausted that he was out of breath and couldn't even speak, so he could only stare at him viciously.

"How's it going, did you cool off a bit?" Seeing his fair face flushed with satisfaction, Wu Hao smiled triumphantly.

"It's getting hotter, idiot." Finally taking a breath, Su Jin squeezed out a few words from between his teeth.

"I told you to exercise more. What's the use of reading so many books every day?" Wu Hao waved his hand nonchalantly, pointing to the cave surrounded by vines behind him with a smile: "That's it, the cave is very cool of."

Su Jin looked back at the dark, bottomless cave behind him that seemed to have a gaping mouth, and the corners of his eyes couldn't help twitching: "Are you sure you want to go in?"

"Of course, there is no sunlight in the cave and it's humid, so it must be very cool." Wu Hao put his hands on the back of his head and looked at him with a bright face: "Okay, okay, let's start the cave adventure... After enjoying the cool Let's go!"

"..." Seeing someone who was complacent when he accidentally spoke his mind, Su Jin was too lazy to get angry.He sighed helplessly and asked, "Did you bring a candle?"

"Why do you need candles? I brought a flashlight, don't worry."

"Stupid, candles are not for lighting." Glaring at him contemptuously, Su Jin explained to himself: "Combustion needs enough oxygen. The deeper the cave, the less oxygen, which cannot provide the basic conditions for combustion." , if the fire of the candle goes out, it means that there is no oxygen in front, we have to return quickly..."

Su Jin, who was immersed in the explanation, only realized that Wu Hao had walked into the cave swaggeringly when he came back to his senses.

"...that idiot." After cursing fiercely, he had no choice but to follow up.

The cave was very cold and damp, and the road underfoot was bumpy and steep.At first, with the help of the light outside the cave, I could vaguely see the stones and moss under my feet, but gradually, there was only darkness left around.

Wu Hao turned on the flashlight, and the bright light filled the cave, but it soon faded, and he could barely see the road under his feet.

"Damn it, is it out of power?" He shook the flashlight in dissatisfaction. With the help of the faint light, he could see that the wall was covered with moss.Those mosses had a very disgusting sticky feel. Su Jin wiped her hands on Wu Hao's clothes dissatisfied, and said disgustedly: "It's so dirty, let's go back."

"...Okay." Although he was reluctant, but the power of the flashlight was insufficient, and for safety reasons, he could only go back first.He had no choice but to hold Su Jin's hand and walk back resentfully.

The darkness made the steep walk very, very long.Wu Hao walked almost to sleep in the monotonous darkness, and the light of the flashlight began to go on and off, and he began to feel uneasy: "It's strange, why haven't I walked out for so long, obviously I haven't walked very far... "

The holding hands became more and more cold, and even began to shiver.Wu Hao stopped, took his hand and breathed lightly, his voice was full of worry: "What's wrong, is it cold?"

"A little bit." The dim light couldn't see the other party's expression clearly, but the other party's voice was still calm as usual: "I just hate the dark."

"If you're afraid of the dark, just say it straight, and you're so literary..." Wu Hao muttered in a low voice, but as a result, he was hit on the head as expected.

"I don't even think about who I came to this ghost place for."

"Okay, I was wrong, don't be angry, we should be at the exit soon." Hearing the words squeezed out word by word from the other party's teeth, Wu Hao felt a different coldness from the cave, and closed his apology wisely. mouth, and then silently find the exit.

After walking forward for a while, turning one intersection after another, even Wu Hao felt a little tired, and he finally realized that something was wrong: "What, what should we do about Su Jin, we can't seem to get out."

"That's what the villagers often say." The literary boy's voice was unexpectedly calm: "Is the ghost hitting the wall?"

"What, what, don't scare me." Forced to smile, Wu Hao held up the flashlight tremblingly, ready to walk for a while, but suddenly found a pair of eyes in the darkness ahead.

Those were a pair of white eyes, especially conspicuous in the dark cave.

"Ah——" the flashlight was thrown on the ground, and three screams were intertwined. The deafening shouts echoed in the empty cave, and could not be subdued for a long time.

Wait, why three beeps?The two who reacted looked at each other, and then looked at the source of the sound together.
