The Taste of Ghosts in the World

After Feng Baisui came back, he went to school with Qi Mu once. The craze of "heroes saving the beauty" in the class has not completely subsided. Qi Mu didn't care much about those booing, but Feng Baisui was very dissatisfied.

"During my absence, what happened to you and that woman?"

"Nothing happened." Qi Mu said.

"Impossible." Feng Baisui was sure, he looked at Wen Qinlan, and the girl always turned her gaze away intentionally or unintentionally.

Since that day, she hasn't spoken to Qi Mu, and even if they meet by chance, she quickly avoids her, but the behavior of peeking hasn't stopped.

At this time Fang Ji came over and asked Qi Mu in a low voice, "I heard that Wen Xiaoniu confessed to you?"

"Who did you hear that from?" Qi Mu's face remained calm, and he tried his best to recall it before he remembered that it was indeed the case.

"Wen Xiaoniu's friend said that I got it out with great difficulty, and you are so mean, you didn't tell me." Fang Ji couldn't wait to start gossip: "Did she break your bottle? It is said that your face is super ugly What kind of bottle is it? It can even compare to beautiful women."

Without even thinking about it, Qi Mu prevaricated him: "It's the ashes of our ancestors."

Fang Ji was stunned for a moment, and slapped him on the back, "You're kidding me? Don't be kidding, it won't hurt if you tell me."

"Actually...a friend of mine," Qi Mu began to make arrangements in his mind quickly, "He bet with me that if he can keep the bottle for ten days without damage, he will give me 100 yuan."

"Haha!" Fang Ji laughed loudly, "Is your friend rich? You can do it if you want a bottle or not a girlfriend!"

Qi Mu said calmly: "I can get 100 yuan if I want a bottle, but I'm afraid it will cost more than 100 yuan if I want a girlfriend. If it were you, which one would you want?"

Fang Ji paused, and replied honestly: "...the bottle."

"So in comparison, the bottle is very important."

"Okay." Fang Ji patted him on the shoulder with a "you won" expression, and moved to another place.

Feng Baisui floated over with an unfriendly expression, "I'm only worth 100 yuan?"

"Don't take such words too seriously." Qi Mu spread his hands: "And 100 yuan is really useful when shopping."

"When you are going to be strangled by a ghost, just throw a 100 yuan coin at it? Or let that woman cry and beg it to let you go?"

"..." Qi Mu had no choice but to comfort him: "You are much more useful than 100 yuan."

So Feng Baisui snorted coldly and shut up.

A few days later, Qi Mu unexpectedly received a call from Bai Moli.

"let's go hiking?"

"Yes," Bai Moli said very politely on the phone, "We plan to go up to the mountains tomorrow. Maxi said that you are the first friend he made in China, and he must ask you out. And Feng Baisui, if possible, Please come together."

Qi Mu thought, tomorrow is the weekend and there is nothing to do, so he agreed.After hanging up the phone, he realized the seriousness of the matter.

"Who is calling?" Feng Baisui stared at the computer and asked casually.

"Jasmine and Maxi, ask us to go hiking tomorrow, and I agree."

"Oh."

"Oh what, is that your reaction?"

"It's just climbing the mountain," he absently manipulated the villain in front of him, "or are you afraid of heights?"

"I'm more afraid of ghosts." Qi Mu turned off the computer screen angrily, "Listen clearly, they are dating 'us', including me and you."

Feng Baisui looked up at him, "I didn't say no."

"The problem is that if you go, it means you didn't go. They can't see you!"

"Then let them see it." Feng Baisui said, and turned on the screen again, and the villain who was dancing jubilantly just now had gloriously rushed to the street, and a dialogue box whether to be resurrected appeared above his head.

"died."

Qi Mu held the mouse next to him and clicked on Rebirth. As soon as the scene changed, he saw a series of emotional content flashing up on the team channel, all of which were scolding them for not moving while killing the boss, causing everyone to die.

Feng Baisui calmly typed out a line: The card is dropped.

In an instant, there was a frenzied frequency swiping again, and that unremarkable sentence was drowned in the sea of ​​saliva in the blink of an eye.

The two were silent for a while, and Qi Mu frowned, "How many times have you done it? It's not good yet."

"The explosive rate of the equipment you want is too low." Feng Baisui pushed the keyboard away, "Why don't you come to fight?"

"……Go on."

The next day was very early at the appointed time, Qi Mu got out of the car yawning, he finished the dungeon too late last night, and finally got all the equipment he wanted, at the cost of being blocked after only four hours of sleep. Bai Sui screamed, and then appeared with red eye circles and red mouth.

"You are here."

Bai Moli and Maxi arrived earlier than them. They both wore casual sportswear, had big beards and exaggeratedly carried a big mountaineering bag, and hung a professional-looking camera around their necks. They were full of energy. greet you.

"Hey, Qi Mu, are you ready?"

"There's nothing to prepare." Qi Mu pointed to his camera, "You still have this?"

"Of course." Maxi held up the long lens, squeezed his eyes and said, "Ghosts are most likely to be seen in the mountains in the morning. I want to take pictures of them!"

"Ghost?" Qi Mu subconsciously looked at Feng Baisui

Bai Moli hurriedly explained from the side: "Maxi is very fascinated by those gods and ghosts, so please ignore him."

"It's okay, I'm also interested." Qi Mu said.

Maxi immediately became excited after hearing this, "Do you like it too? Jasmine, did you hear that? Chinese boys also like this."

"I heard it." Bai Moli responded helplessly.

After climbing the mountain, Maxi's enthusiasm never faded, and he pestered Qi Mu and asked, "Have you ever seen a ghost?"

Qi Mu nodded.

"How lucky! I've never seen them head on! What do they look like?"

"..." Qi Mu thought for a while, then pointed at Feng Baisui, "It's almost like that."

Maxi looked at Feng Baisui, "It's nothing special."

Qi Mu shrugged, "Ghosts were humans before they were alive, so there's nothing special about it."

Maxi was very disappointed, "Did you read it wrong?"

"Maybe."

……

It is said to be mountain climbing, but in fact it is just climbing stairs. Maxi held up the camera to take pictures, but he enjoyed it.

Feng Baisui always walked on the outside of the stone steps to prevent Qi Mu from falling due to sleepiness. Qi Mu took a deep breath, and the cool morning air filled his lungs with the fragrance of grass leaves and soil, which was very comfortable. My spirit has also improved a lot.

"It's not bad to come to the mountain once in a while." He said to Feng Baisui.

"Who said you don't want to come in the morning?"

"...That's because I didn't sleep well."

They stopped to eat at noon, and Maxi's big backpack showed its effect at this time. There were all kinds of food stuffed in the bag, which was enough for the few of them to eat.After playing until the afternoon, everyone decided to take a break and then went down the mountain.

Maxi was tall and big, he didn't feel tired at all, so he wanted to go to the side to take pictures, but Bai Moli was already tired, so he had to go there alone.

The remaining three sat down on the moss-covered stone steps, and Qi Mu naturally leaned on Feng Baisui and yawned.

Bai Moli looked at them enviously, "Have you been together all this time? Have you never been apart?"

At the same time, the two thought of the soul flying away not long ago, and Qi Mu also thought of the shattered soul gathering bottle, so he said with a smile: "Well, they have never been separated."

"That's great..." Bai Moli stepped on a fallen dead leaf and made a rustling sound, "Maxie and I have been separated before."

"quarrel?"

He shook his head, "No, I was still studying abroad at that time, met Maxi, and became very good friends with him. When the study was about to end, he suddenly told me that he loved me and hoped that I could stay. I In addition to being shocked, I also realized that I had a different feeling for him. I quickly completed the graduation procedures and quietly returned to China without telling him. It took three years to leave.”

"Why are you leaving?" Feng Baisui suddenly said.

"I don't know, maybe it's because of fear. Before that, I never thought that I was gay, and I was confessed by the same sex... I can't forgive myself, and I don't want to hurt him, let alone face him... "Bai Moli smiled wryly, "That's why I ran away."

"Almost half a year ago, he found a way to get in touch with me, or said he wanted to be with me, and I couldn't forget him." He sighed, and said with a little emotion: "If I could face it well three years ago My own feelings, maybe I won't waste three years in vain."

"At least Maxi has come to China specifically to find you now." Qi Mu said.

"Yes...if it wasn't for him, our relationship might have ended like this." Speaking of his current life, Bai Moli's mood improved significantly, "I joked and asked him to wait for me at the 'Girl's Well', that idiot actually I really went, and then I met you."

"Why do you want to ask for a girl's well?" This name is only known by people of the previous generation. I didn't expect you to know it too." Qi Mu knew that this well was also told by Qi Zong when he was a child.

"I lived near there when I was young, and I heard it from adults. In the past, we children often played by the well. Later, one of them fell into the well and drowned. The parents didn't dare to let us get close, but I was deeply impressed. I will never forget it." Bai Moli smiled at Qi Mu, "That's why I asked you the other day if you knew Guo Xiaole."

Suddenly, Qi Mu thought of the little boy in the well, "Is he the one who drowned?"

"Yes, he disappeared while playing peek-a-boo and was found dead. That day when I said the words 'I found you', I thought of him, and even thought I heard his voice..."

While talking, Maxi came back and happily showed them the photos in the camera. After pressing them one by one, Bai Moli suddenly asked, "How far did you go just now? Is there anyone living over there?"

Maxi looked blank, "No, there are only trees and fog."

Qi Mu looked around, it was already evening, the light was gradually dimming, he didn't notice just now, it turned out that there was a layer of damp mist in the mountains and forests, and he couldn't see clearly.

Bai Moli pointed to one of them, "Here, there is a house."

Maxi leaned over to take a look, "Oh, it really is! Why didn't I see it?"

"Is it because the fog reduces visibility?" Qi Mu guessed.

"possible."

"It's a reclusive Chinese expert! Let's go and have a look!" Maxi suggested energetically.

Qi Mu frowned, "It's getting dark and foggy again, if you don't go down the mountain, it will be very dangerous."

Maxi said: "You can't go down the mountain when it's foggy. If there are really tall people, we'll stay overnight."

Bai Moli also said: "In the current situation, it is easy to get lost when going down the mountain."

Qi Mu thought for a while, then glanced at Feng Baisui, who said nothing, so he nodded in agreement.

The crowd was led by Maxi to find the house in the photo. The fog was getting thicker and thicker. They turned around the place where the photo was taken just now, but they didn't see any buildings.

Qi Mu suddenly found something that looked like a roof not far away, so he pointed to it and said to the others, "Is that it?"

"where?"

Qi Mu led Feng Baisui to walk forward, and an old-style house gradually appeared in the thick fog.Maxi and Bai Moli, who were one step behind, also caught up and looked around blankly, but turned a blind eye to the house in front of them.

"It's right here, in front." Qi Mu patted Bai Moli's shoulder, and at that moment, Bai Moli's eyes fixed the focus, "Ah, I saw it."

Maxi next to him was still looking around aimlessly, so Qi Mu took his arm and pointed at the old house, and the bearded man belatedly said: "That's it! That's it!"

Qi Mu was suspicious, and asked Feng Baisui in a low voice, "Did you find it?"

Feng Baisui nodded, "There is a problem with this house."

"Are you still going in?"
