Jing Jiujiu was riding on Bai Yuhuai's body. If he could turn around at this moment, he would probably be extremely anxious.
He didn't know how to keep these people, so he could only instinctively insert all ten fingers into Bai Yuhuai's hair like riding a horse, and pulled it, and the whole ghost leaned back.
Stop for a moment—
Bai Yuhuai's hair was curled up, and everyone thought it was just the strong mountain wind in the morning that almost blew his hair up, so they hurriedly greeted him more eagerly: "Brother Bai, come on, I'll hold an umbrella for you."
Bai Yuhuai raised his hand expressionlessly and pressed it to the top of his head, then glanced at the black umbrella: "No need."
After saying this, he walked back to the car not far away, and his assistant naturally carried his suitcase.
Jing Jiujiu watched him walk faster and faster, and she couldn't pull his hair away.
He leaned back further and further, almost bending over.
But the man had clearly been pulling him and made him sway, but now he was motionless again. I don't know what he ate. Did he eat weights
Don’t go…
Bai Yuhuai walked to the car door.
The car door was already open, but he didn't bend down and get in immediately.
Ghosts are invisible.
In fact, even if he sat in it directly, Jing Jiujiu would not be hit by the roof of the car.
But Bai Yuhuai still seemed to grab the top of his head inadvertently.
Jing Jiujiu seemed to be sucked down by an invisible force and then thrown out.
When he came to his senses, he was already lying in the carriage like a ghost.
Jing Jiujiu:
Bai Yuhuai then followed and sat in, nodding slightly to the person outside the door: "Thank you for your hard work."
Everyone thought that the actor Bai was very graceful, and hurriedly said, "It's okay, it's not hard at all."
Then the car door closed automatically, the driver stepped on the accelerator, and drove out of the castle.
The people in the production team were secretly shocked, and after a while they said, "Brother Bai's hairstyle... is quite wild!"
In the car, the baffle between the back seat and the front seat slowly rose, and Bai Yuhuai also turned his head slightly.
The assistant in the front seat turned around and asked: "Brother Bai?" "Brother Bai, are you asleep?"
Bai Yuhuai stared at Jing Jiujiu.
The boy was still in a daze, his eyes were red.
The castle covers a large area and it takes about four or five minutes to walk out completely.
Jing Jiujiu counted silently in her heart.
Even if he left that door, he couldn't leave the next one... He looked at the scenery outside the window, watching the fountain pool and the gate in front of the pool getting closer and closer...
"Swish", the car moved forward without stopping, stirring up a trail of fallen leaves.
When it passed through the gate, Jing Jiujiu felt a moment of palpitations like a human. Then the ghost jumped into Bai Yuhuai's arms and buried its head.
I want to go back…
I don’t want to go back…
Bai Yuhuai was not surprised at all by Jing Jiujiu's behavior. The boy rested his chin on his shoulder, curled up and clung to him tightly. It was obviously a ghost... But Bai Yuhuai seemed to be able to sense his heartbeat and the blood flowing under his skin...
The boy trembled in his arms.
The shaking was even worse than after watching a horror movie.
Bai Yuhuai raised his hand and circled the boy's body in the air. He lowered his eyes and caught a glimpse of the small piece of skin that was exposed when the boy tilted his body. It was white.
The car drove farther and farther away.
The driver even played Bai Yuhuai's favorite music.
At this time, it suddenly started to rain. The rain gradually became heavier, hitting the windows and knocking on Jing Jiujiu's ears.
The sound is so clear.
It was so clear that it seemed as if he was in the rain forest.
Jing Jiujiu didn’t know how long he had been shaking. He waited and waited, but still no strong suction came from the castle.
He carefully raised his head and opened his eyes again.
Through the rear window, he caught a glimpse of the road and mountains moving rapidly away.
he's gone
Jing Jiujiu was stunned.
He walked out of the castle!
Bai Yuhuai frowned imperceptibly. The boy hasn't recovered yet? So timid? Wasn't he very brave just now
Bai Yuhuai was just about to tell him, I can see you.
The young man got off him with a whoosh.
The boy knelt on the seat and looked out the rear window. Then he held onto the left window and stared out eagerly. Then he lay on Bai Yuhuai's legs and propped himself up with his arms to look out the right window...
Jumping up and down.
Where is the trace of fear
Everything outside, even the monotonous mountain scenery, seemed to have great attraction to the young man, making him stare at it for hours.
Bai Yuhuai had no choice but to suppress the sound in his throat.
The boy probably thought it was quite comfortable lying on him, so after tossing around in the carriage for a while, he just lay there without moving.
Bai Yuhuai: “…”
never mind.
He clenched his fingers, pretending not to see it, and slowly closed his eyes to take a nap.
The agent knew that he was tired and naturally would not accept any more notices for him. When the car drove back to the villa where Bai Yuhuai lived, the agent who was waiting at the door immediately came to greet him.
"Brother Bai!" The agent hurried up and opened the car door.
Bai Yuhuai felt that Jing Jiujiu was frightened and jumped up.
Bai Yuhuai: “…”
Bai Yuhuai: "Keep your voice down."
broker:
The agent looked at Bai Yuhuai's face and thought that Brother Bai might not have had a good rest recently, so he lowered his voice and said, "Are you okay? I was scared to death when I received the call from the program team. This is all my fault. I won't answer it next time!"
The agent said this sincerely.
If it were the moment he answered the phone and said Bai Yuhuai and the others had fallen into the trap, he would have burst into tears on the spot.
Bai Yuhuai glanced at him and replied calmly, "Yeah."
But he didn't get off the car immediately.
The agent went around to the trunk to help take the luggage down. When he came back, he saw that Bai Yuhuai hadn't moved yet. He got nervous for a moment and asked, "Are you injured somewhere?"
Bai Yuhuai: “No.”
Why hasn't the boy moved yet
Jing Jiujiu leaned on the car window and finally took in this strange and novel environment.
It was not much different from the villa area where he lived when he was a child, but the houses at that time seemed to be more beautiful.
He reluctantly withdrew his gaze, and when he turned around, he found that the man outside the car was urging Bai Yuhuai to get out.
Wait for me!
Jing Jiujiu quickly pressed herself onto Bai Yuhuai's back and hugged him with her hands and feet.
Bai Yuhuai then moved.
"Put your stuff in there and you can go," he told his agent.
The agent knew that he would probably be confined to read the script again, so he didn't bother him. He just nodded and let him move his suitcase in, leaving gifts and letters from colleagues and fans, as well as vacation gifts prepared by the company, etc.
The living room was filled up in no time.
Then all the agents withdrew.
Bai Yuhuai went straight upstairs.
Jing Jiujiu rode on his neck, higher up and with a wider view, looking at everything here... Compared to the old castle, many things here were very new.
The TV is very thin!
The chandelier is beautiful!
The curtains open and close automatically! Better than being controlled by ghosts!
Bai Yuhuai was about to go into the bathroom to take a shower, but when he reached the door, he paused slightly.
Would a young boy be scared if there was a ghost in the room
Originally, Bai Yuhuai would never think about such a question, but the teenager would tremble with fear when watching horror movies...
Bai Yuhuai turned around, picked up the remote control, and turned on the TV in the room. After thinking it over, he decided it would be safer to switch to the children's channel.
After doing this, he went into the bathroom.
As expected, the boy slipped off him and went over to watch TV out of curiosity.
Bai Yuhuai had just turned on the shower in the bathroom when his cell phone rang.
He turned his head and glanced.
It was the director of his next movie calling.
Bai Yuhuai wiped his hands and picked up the phone.
"Hello, I heard that Actor Bai is back after recording the show, so I thought of giving him a call to try my luck." The person on the other end smiled.
"Yeah, I'm back."
"How do you think you read the script? The investor has pushed someone over here, and he's not the only one. He specifically wants to play Cheng Xu. It's not easy for us to give him an audition. That's what I was thinking. If everyone is free, we can get together and read the entire script first. By then, won't we all be clear about the lines, acting skills, and understanding of the character?" The man finished the words in one breath. It was obvious that he had wanted to call Bai Yuhuai for a long time and was so depressed.
Bai Yuhuai glanced outside the bathroom door.
He is going out.
… You can also bring the young man with you.
The boy has not had contact with the outside world for many years.
Bai Yuhuai responded: "When?"
"Three days later, at 7:30 p.m., at Xuanyuan Teahouse."
Bai Yuhuai asked again: "Who is the person recommended by the investor?"
The other end sighed, "Who else could it be? The idol who is so popular right now, Ding Hanbing."
Bai Yuhuai doesn't have any prejudice against idols.
Anyone can do it as long as they don't hold us back.
Bai Yuhuai ended the call and walked out of the bathroom twenty minutes later.
The boy was staring at the TV screen with great interest. How could there be a trace of fear in his eyes
Bai Yuhuai couldn't tell what he felt.
He glanced at the screen.
The boy probably fiddled with the remote control himself. The TV was no longer a children's channel, but an online program. It seemed to be a boy band talent show? There were two top young actors in China sitting in the mentor seats.
Bai Yuhuai has never paid much attention to this kind of thing. He just glanced at it and then looked away.
Bai Yuhuai raised his hand to wipe his hair and said softly, "Jing Jiujiu."
Jing Jiujiu shivered with fear.
He turned his head stiffly and saw Bai Yuhuai looking down at him.
Jing Jiujiu slid down from the sofa feeling guilty.
How can he see me again
Wouldn't he then know that I followed him home
Is he going to find a master to catch me soon
Jing Jiujiu stood upright beside the sofa, like an elementary school student who had made a mistake.
A strand of hair stuck to his cheek, making his face look even more pitiful.
Jing Jiujiu thought to herself, I am a ghost.
Why don't I scare him by saying I'm going to eat him? Preemptive strike!
That way he won't ask me why I follow him
In just a short while, Jing Jiujiu had already figured it out in her mind, whether it was better to bite the arm first, or the neck first...
Bai Yuhuai: "Jing Jiujiu, come here, I have something to tell you."
Jing Jiujiu pounced forward, but before he could bite his neck, Bai Yuhuai raised his hand and grabbed him.
… Why do you love to be hugged so much
Bai Yuhuai thought about it and the towel in his hand fell to the ground.
Jing Jiujiu was detained and couldn't move:
Bai Yuhuai asked: "Have you been to the secondary building on the right side of your castle?"
Jing Jiujiu was stunned.
That's all he asked
"No." He only went into the building on the left with Bai Yuhuai and the others. He always felt uncomfortable in those places, so he didn't want to go there.
Bai Yuhuai's tone was still calm: "I found a lot of your things in there. ... Your paintings from childhood to adulthood, your photos, the clothes you wore..."
Jing Jiujiu stood there in a daze.
Was there something of his in there? Did Bai Yuhuai see it? Then he also knew about it...
Jing Jiujiu: "I am a ghost."
Bai Yuhuai: “Yeah.”
Hmm? Hmm? Is that all? Jing Jiujiu scratched her hair with a headache.
He already knew I was a ghost!
But he is not afraid of me!
While Jing Jiujiu was still worrying about her dignity, Bai Yuhuai asked, "Do you know who put those things in there?"
Jing Jiujiu's thoughts came to an abrupt halt, and he couldn't help but think about Bai Yuhuai's question. But then he said blankly: "When I was a child, my father liked to put away all my things. He said he wanted to keep them as memories in the future."
"Jing Tinghua?"
"No." Jing Jiujiu thought to herself, he really knew everything. Then could he see me before? Jing Jiujiu muttered a few words, and then said: "I have a father. His name is Yu Ran."
Bai Yuhuai had also heard of this name.
As early as about thirty years ago, the Yu family was famous. It was said that their ancestors were high-ranking officials in some dynasty, and later went abroad during the war. When they returned, they brought a large amount of wealth and donated it to the country.
But later on, there was no news from the Yu family.
Yu Ran... seems to be the only son of the Yu family.
"Oh, besides my father, there is another person who might be the one..." Jing Jiujiu searched through her memories.
"who?"
Jing Jiujiu said: "He is my neighbor. He used to like collecting my awards and report cards... His grades were not very good." When she said this, Jing Jiujiu's eyes lit up, as if she was a little proud.
Bai Yuhuai paused and said, "Well. The person who collected your things and the person who put them in are not necessarily the same person."
Jing Jiujiu stared at him in confusion: "Is there any difference? Why are you asking this?"
"There is a difference. When I went in, the door was locked with an iron chain and a spell drawn on it. The furniture in the room was piled up in a mess, and there was no sunlight. Do you know why?" Bai Yuhuai let go of Jing Jiujiu and bent down to pick up the towel.
Jing Jiujiu had no idea: "Why?"
The words came to his lips, but Bai Yuhuai swallowed them back.
Should he tell the boy
Jing Jiujiu heard him not saying anything, but her curiosity was aroused. She couldn't help but hold his arm again and asked, "Why?"
Bai Yuhuai paused and said, "When a person stops breathing and his brain dies, it is death in the biological sense. After death, he can become a ghost and still maintain ties with the human world. His relatives and friends will worship him and burn paper money for him."
"… There is another kind of death, which is that after a person dies, he is completely forgotten. No one remembers him. This means that he has completely died and disappeared from this world. Even if he becomes a ghost, it is difficult for him to be reborn. He can easily become a lonely ghost. After struggling to survive for several years, he will be beaten to death by a passing Taoist priest."
Jing Jiujiu shuddered when she heard this.
"But no matter whether a person is good or bad, after he dies, there will always be one or two people who remember him."
Bai Yuhuai looked at the boy's face that didn't seem to know how to feel sad... When he was young, he must have grown up in flowers, wealth and pampering.
So how should he tell the boy—
There is a way to put all the things a person has used in his life in a room without sunlight, completely isolate it from the outside world, and then draw a spell on it. This will cut off the last connection between this person and the world, making everyone in the world forget him.
The layout of that building is designed to make people forget him.
Seven years is nothing.
After fourteen years, twenty-eight years, fifty-six years... no one will notice that there is a ghost trapped there, unable to escape.
Jing Jiujiu: "Oh... I understand. Is the person who put those things there missing me?"
Bai Yuhuai: "... Yeah." Bai Yuhuai said, "Since you followed me back..."
Jing Jiujiu looked at him nervously.
Bai Yuhuai: "Then follow me all the time."
Jing Jiujiu smiled: "Hmmmm!" His face was so bright that it was almost impossible to look away.
Bai Yuhuai: "You can't leave me."
Jing Jiujiu: “Hmmmm!”
Seeing that he was not serious about his response, Bai Yuhuai added, "Otherwise, you will be captured by the Taoist priest."
Jing Jiujiu nodded even harder this time: "Yeah!" and curled up her body.
Bai Yuhuai: "I'm going out in three days, you come with me."
Jing Jiujiu also nodded as usual.
He also wants to go outside and take a look!
"What's the name of your neighbor?" Bai Yuhuai asked.
Jing Tinghua, Yu Ran... and this neighbor, none of them can be let go. We must investigate them thoroughly to find out what happened back then.
Jing Jiujiu: "Ding Dabao. Oh, no. I said it wrong. That's his nickname. His real name..." Jing Jiujiu tilted her head and thought for a moment: "Ding Hanbing."
Bai Yuhuai was stunned.
That Ding Hanbing on the phone
Thinking back to when Jing Jiujiu came out of the bathroom just now, wasn't there this Ding Hanbing on the TV screen that she was staring at
The young man was staring at Ding Hanbing so seriously
Bai Yuhuai frowned, picked up the remote control and turned off the TV: "Go to bed."
Jing Jiujiu: “Oh.”
He climbed onto Bai Yuhuai's big bed, and seeing that Bai Yuhuai's expression had not changed, he got into the quilt.
What a strange day.
I actually came out!
Why did I come out? … Is it because I rode on Bai Yuhuai’s neck
Jing Jiujiu burrowed deeper into the quilt.
Okay, then I will ride him every day from now on!
