Not long after Lu Boyan and Su Jianan left, Mu Sijue and Xu Youning also went back.
By the beach, only Shen Yuechuan and Xiao Yunyun were bored.
Shen Yuechuan put his hands behind his head, folded his legs, lay down on the beach casually, and let out a long breath.
The seaside is surprisingly quiet at night, and the hazy silver light shrouds the sea, making the originally blue sea appear deep and mysterious. The sound of waves hitting the rocks became particularly clear in the night, coming from time to time, and sounded as beautiful as the music composed by a musician.
Shen Yuechuan closed his eyes and felt this rare feeling of being light and free.
Xiao Yunyun sat cross-legged one meter away from Shen Yuechuan, and couldn't help but turn her head to look at Shen Yuechuan—
He was obviously still the same person during the day, but the romantic and uninhibited spirit that followed him had disappeared without a trace. He was lying casually and comfortably on the beach like this, looking healthy, green and pollution-free. People who didn't know him would probably think that he was a good young man.
However, it is undeniable that Shen Yuechuan is very eye-catching no matter what state he is in.
Just like at this moment, under such hazy moonlight, for ordinary people, a face would have been out of focus and blurred like a failed photo shoot.
But Shen Yuechuan didn't. His facial lines were already good and deep and three-dimensional. The hazy moonlight spread across his face, only gently coating him with a layer of mysterious brilliance, without affecting his handsomeness at all.
Xu Youning couldn't help but take out his mobile phone, find an angle and press the shutter.
Well, the imaging effect does not need to be adjusted in post-production, it comes with filters for beautification.
But what if this photo is discovered later? Will she be misunderstood as a candid photographer
Xiao Yunyun thought for a while and simply sent the photo to Shen Yuechuan, so that she could keep the photo openly without feeling guilty!
After receiving the photo, Shen Yuechuan was surprised and looked at Xiao Yunyun with raised eyebrows: "Your photography skills are not very good."
Xiao Yunyun knew that ivory could not come out of a dog's mouth, so she raised the corners of her lips and smiled: "Actually, I don't think the photo is good-looking either. But it's none of the photographer's business, it's mainly because the model looks too average. It’s really impossible to read the pictures without post-processing!”
Shen Yuechuan didn't expect to shoot himself in the foot, and gritted his teeth: "Really? But in my opinion, the only thing that can be seen in the photo is the model, and the technical aspects are terrible."
Xiao Yunyun said "ha-": "If narcissism is a crime, you should be sentenced to life imprisonment!"
Shen Yuechuan answered fluently: "If your photography skills are too bad to be punished, you should just drag him out and kill him with a cane!"
The two of them were saying something to each other, not giving in to the other, and each word was more poisonous than the other. They kept stabbing each other, hoping that the other would run out of health and fall to the ground in the next second.
The silence on the beach was gradually broken, and even the sound of waves hitting the rocks became much louder, as if joining in the fun.
The war raged for half an hour. Xiao Yunyun was already thirsty and made a "stop" gesture: "Shen Yuechuan, let's go back and continue tomorrow."
Shen Yuechuan thought about it and realized that Xiao Yunyun was very articulate. Although he would not lose, he seemed to have no chance of winning. He nodded and agreed to a temporary truce and return to the cabin first.
It takes half an hour to walk from the beach to the cabin.
Xiao Yunyun had clearly walked this road with Shen Yuechuan during the day, and now she was returning the same way. She didn't know why, but she always felt cold on her back.
After pondering for a while, Xiao Yunyun realized that it was because the island was too bright.
The lighting on the island is carefully designed. Each beam of light appropriately sets off the quiet and leisure atmosphere of the island. The brightness is also considered just right, allowing tourists to hide in a corner quietly and daze. It can bring a bunch of people together to have a carnival.
Logically speaking, Xiao Yunyun shouldn't feel scared, but the problem is that there are only six people on the entire island except for a few staff members, and she and Shen Yuechuan are the only ones outside.
At this time, no matter how precise and atmospheric the lighting arrangement is, it will look particularly weird and can easily remind people of Far Cry or something.
Xiao Yunyun walked, huddled next to Shen Yuechuan.
Shen Yuechuan quickly noticed her strangeness and asked with a smile: "Afraid?"
Xiao Yunyun denied firmly: "How is that possible! I am studying medicine after all, okay? I just feel a little cold!" Then she shrank closer to Shen Yuechuan, "Hey, you are tall, help me block the wind. "
Shen Yuechuan was unexpectedly generous and put his arm around Xiao Yunyun's shoulders: "Since you are not afraid, let me tell you a story!"
In fact, his movements were not aggressive at all, like he was holding a buddy's shoulder, and there was no hint of intimacy.
But Xiao Yunyun still felt a little awkward. Just as she was about to break away from Shen Yuechuan's hand, Shen Yuechuan suddenly turned his head and looked at her: "The story is a bit scary. Do you dare to listen to it?"
"If you dare to speak, I dare to listen!"
Xiao Yunyun is full of confidence. She can't embarrass anyone but can't embarrass her as a medical student!
Shen Yuechuan liked Xiao Yunyun's reaction very much, organized his words, and started telling the story slowly:
"The construction of the wooden house on the island is in charge of the old man who prepared the speedboat for us. Some time ago, he reported something to me. A very strange thing happened when the foundation of the wooden house you lived in was laid. "
Xiao Yunyun had a bad premonition, but she was not afraid yet, so she calmly asked: "What's the strange thing?"
"No matter how hard the foundation was laid," Shen Yuechuan said lightly, "Later, he went to the outside of the island and hired a master. The master said it was because there were people living in that place."
Xiao Yunyun's back became colder and colder, but she still pretended not to be afraid: "Then what? How was the matter resolved?"
"Then I asked that master to solve the problem." Shen Yuechuan pondered and thought about it, "Oh, I heard Lao Zhang say that it seemed that there was a ritual ceremony, and the master said that he had invited that 'person' to another place. Went there, and then the wooden house was built smoothly."
After saying that, the two of them just returned to the door of the wooden house, and Xiao Yunyun subconsciously stopped in her steps.
"What's wrong?" Shen Yuechuan looked at Xiao Yunyun with concern, "Are you afraid? It's okay. They say that 'person' has been invited away by the master."
The more Shen Yuechuan emphasized that 'person', the more obvious the various horrific images in Xiao Yunyun's mind became.
She admitted that she was scared, but she could not expose her fear in front of Shen Yuechuan.
She broke away from Shen Yuechuan's hand and angrily condemned: "You are a highly educated person after all, but you are so superstitious? Oh, no, if I leave it to you, this should be called stupidity!"
Shen Yuechuan looked at Xiao Yunyun suspiciously: "Are you really not afraid?"
Xiao Yunyun folded her hands around her chest and said "haha" twice: "When we were in the anatomy class, there were countless anatomy teachers in the laboratory. Do you think this little story can scare me?"
Shen Yuechuan thought about it, Xiao Yunyun came out of medical school, what hasn't he seen? What else could scare her
He suddenly felt that he was quite bored, and waved to Xiao Yunyun: "Then I'll go back, see you tomorrow."
Seeing Shen Yuechuan's figure walking further and further away, Xiao Yunyun's back became colder and colder, and she decisively ran back to the cabin.
Before she had time to close the door, Xiao Yunyun ran to turn on all the lights, closed all the windows tightly, then turned on her mobile phone and played "Good Days".
"Hey -, today is a good day~"
High-pitched and festive singing filled the room. Xiao Yunyun jumped a few times to cheer herself up, took her pajamas and entered the bathroom.
She kept warning herself not to think wildly, but it had the opposite effect. Horrible plots in movies and novels came to her mind one by one.
She remembered that a woman with bleeding from all her orifices would suddenly appear in the bathtub...
There will be ghost images flashing in the mirror...
When I turned around, I found a person standing in the corner...
The more she thought about it, the more she lost control. Xiao Yunyun held her breath, finished the bath as fast as she could in her life, and rushed out of the bathroom.
At this moment, there was a "pop" sound, and the lights in the room suddenly dimmed, and her whole body was instantly submerged in the darkness.
A chill spread from the top of Xiao Yunyun's head to her toes. For a moment or two, her whole body was completely frozen, her mouth was open, but she could not make any sound.
Two seconds later—
"ah!"
A shocking scream sounded, Xiao Yunyun pushed open the door of the wooden house and ran out.
Without almost any thought, she ran straight to Shen Yuechuan's cabin and banged the door: "Shen Yuechuan, Shen Yuechuan!"
Shen Yuechuan was taking a bath. He put on a bath towel and came out when he heard the sound. He opened the door and saw that it was really Xiao Yunyun. He was stunned: "What's wrong?"
"I… "
After saying just one word, Xiao Yunyun suddenly lost control and tears burst into her eyes.
"Hey, don't cry." Shen Yuechuan had dealt with all kinds of women, but no girl had ever cried in front of him. He was immediately in a panic, not knowing what to do, let alone how to comfort her.
Xiao Yunyun looked at Shen Yuechuan with tearful eyes, thinking that she was so scared because of him, and he still had the nerve to tell her not to cry...
She cried harder.
"No..." Shen Yuechuan tried to wipe the tears on Xiao Yunyun's face, "Why are you crying?"
"You..." Xiao Yunyun sobbed every sentence, "The person you mentioned, he, he is back."
Shen Yuechuan was confused: "Which person?"
Xiao Yunyun stamped her foot: "That person who lives in my house! As soon as I came out of the shower, the lights dimmed. I was scared to death..."
At this time, Shen Yuechuan finally understood and looked at Xiao Yunyun in embarrassment, wondering whether he should tell the truth.
If he said it at this time, Xiao Yunyun probably wouldn't let him go, and he wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.
After weighing it up, Shen Yuechuan finally made a compromise choice: "If the lights go out, it should be a problem with the circuit. I'll go over and help you take a look." After that, he walked out.
Xiao Yunyun took Shen Yuechuan's hand: "Don't leave!"
Shen Yuechuan turned around and looked at Xiao Yunyun strangely. Only then did Xiao Yunyun realize that her actions could easily lead to misunderstanding. She retracted her hand and explained: "I'm scared." (To be continued)
