Ning Ning was placed under house arrest.
"No no, how could we put you under house arrest?" The village chief refused to admit it and smiled, "We are afraid that you will be lost again, so before your mother comes back to pick you up, we have to take good care of you for her."
"Where's my mother?" Ning Ning asked.
"She received a temporary call, it seemed that a big movie was about to start filming, and the director appointed her to act, so she rushed over overnight." The village chief looked back, "I don't know the specifics, you ask him... come in. !"
A familiar figure walked in from outside.
It's my mother's past manager and her current manager, Li Boyue.
"It's Director Chen's "One Hundred Years of China"." Li Boyue walked over and said, "The investment is hundreds of millions, and it's a Chong Ao film. Many big stars are asking for roles at lower prices. It's impossible for your mother to go to the next level. missed this opportunity."
lie. Ning Ning looked at him.
This year, there is a "China Centennial", but the heroine is not the mother, because the mother will pass away due to illness this summer, and she has been lingering on the bed since then, and she has never participated in the shooting of any film again.
Speaking of... The time when my mother was sick seems to be right after the ancestors went back
"She arranged for me to stay with you." Li Boyue opened the briefcase, took something from it and handed it to her, "Here."
Ning Ning looked at it, speechless, a game console.
"I still have work in hand, so I can't accompany you all the time, so I've prepared these for you." Li Boyue held the briefcase and kept digging out things. Boxes of game cassettes were spread on Ningning's bed, "It should be enough. Did you have a summer vacation?"
More than one summer vacation, enough for her to play until next summer vacation.
But it's strange... Why did Li Boyue, a person with such a serious career, miss the opportunity to accompany her mother to compete for the heroine of "Century of China" and stay in the country to watch her play games
"Why are you staying here?" Ning Ning turned on the handheld, "You take care of your mother's work at work, can't she leave you? If you just play games with me, you can call anyone. "
"Maybe it's because your mother values you more than work." Li Boyue smiled, then raised the phone in his hand, "Besides, you can call if you have anything."
Ning Ning blinked: "Lend me a call, my phone is lost."
Since she woke up, she has not seen her mobile phone again. When she asked others, they all said they had not seen it. The village chief also asked if she had fallen into the well.
"Okay." Li Boyue handed over the phone, "Call."
Ning Ning took the phone and dialed a number. The next second, the phone rang... She and Li Boyue looked at the village chief.
A hip-hop style that was completely inconsistent with the village's style, a pop song called "The Orcs" poured out of the village chief's pocket. Facing Ning Ning's questioning gaze, he smiled and put his hand into his pocket: " Someone is looking for me, I'll go out and answer the phone."
Ning Ning hung up the phone expressionlessly, and the cell phone in the village chief's pocket stopped ringing immediately, but he still walked out unmoved. When his back disappeared at the door, Ning Ning immediately lowered his voice and said to Li Boyue: " This man, no, there is something wrong with this village."
Li Boyue's eyes flashed: "What's the problem?"
"I don't know." Ning Ning said, "but my mother really went back to film? Did you see it with your own eyes? Forget it, I'll call and ask myself."
She called Ning Yuren.
"Hello." Ning Yuren answered the phone quickly.
"Mom." Ning Ning breathed a sigh of relief, "Where are you now?"
"I'm at the director's house, and the audition is about to begin." Ning Yuren laughed.
"Who else is there?" Ning Ning asked.
"There are many, Liu Xiao, Zhao Lingzhi, Liu Tiantian..." Ning Yuren said the names of several famous actors and actresses.
Strange, what's wrong
The village chief said before that something happened to her mother. Does this really mean that she is going back to film
"It's such a coincidence, since Teacher Liu is here, you can help me ask her about the last time." Ning Ning suddenly said.
Ning Yuren was silent for a while. She mentioned two people surnamed Liu just now. Which one is Teacher Liu that Ning Ning said
"...Okay, I'll go back and ask him." Ning Yuren replied.
"Don't you forget something?" Ning Ning wondered.
"Well... There's been a lot of things going on recently, just remind me."
"It's about taking apprentices!"
"Oh! I remember it!" Ning Yuren suddenly realized, then smiled, "Director Chen called me, I asked Teacher Liu back, and I'll call you back."
She used this reason to hang up Ningning's phone.
Ning Ning looked at the phone in her hand and thought: You are not my mother.
What happened last time? Nothing at all. Ning Ning has never mentioned the matter of apprenticeship to Ning Yuren. If she wants to worship, she will not worship anyone other than Ning Yuren. As for Ning Yuren herself, if she must choose a teacher for her daughter, she will not choose these two. A popular actress surnamed Liu, but will be selected from the bones of those not well-known old dramas.
Who is she then
Speaking of which, when she went to the village chief's house for a meeting that night, she seemed to see a famous person among the group of people returning home, who performed a wonderful skill - ventriloquism on this year's Spring Festival Gala.
"Okay." Li Boyue grabbed the phone and said to Ning Ning, "That's it, your mother is busy recently, so don't bother her, bother me or play games."
Ning Ning nodded obediently, and lowered her head to play the game.
Neither the village chief nor Li Boyue can be trusted, so she should wait to meet Wen Yu.
three days later.
Strange... Where's Wen Yu
Ning Ning lowered his head and played the game, the characters in it were rushing around, and they were quickly surrounded by monsters in the game—game over, and blood-red characters floated on the screen.
She was impatient, and threw the handheld in her hand aside, and a few children came around smiling: "Lord, you are dead again." "Play another game." "Will you connect with me, I to bring you."
"Forget it." Ning Ning had no intention of playing games at all, her grandmother was gone, her mother was gone, and now even Wen Yu was nowhere to be seen. When she asked the people in the village where he went, they all said they didn't know. Not only adults don't know, but children also don't know, Ning Ning pondered for a moment, then changed the way of asking, "I'm tired of playing this every day. Speaking of which, what do you usually play?"
The child smiled and said, "Do you want to play with us, landlord?"
"Let's talk about what you've been playing recently." Ning Ning said.
Even if it is a child, a child who can wear a mask will never be an ordinary child, or he has a position in the village, or is particularly smart, so he was arranged to come over to play with her and watch her by the way.
"Pulling the top." A child laughed.
"Top?" Ning Ning said, "Come on, let's whip it together."
"I can't take it, it's too big."
"How big can a spinning top be? How big can it be?"
The kid laughed, and the other kids laughed too, and one of them said with a grin, "It's just a person."
He closed his mouth immediately after speaking, but Ning Ning had already cast his eyes on him and asked, "The spinning top you're pulling...is it a person?"
The kid who leaked his mouth lowered his head, and the other kids turned to look at him.
"Take me there to see." Ning Ning said, after a while, seeing that all the children were still standing still, he got up and walked outside by himself. The little ghosts in masks were already following behind her.
Just follow, no one leads her way.
It was almost lunch time, and the smoke rose from the kitchen in every household. Ning Ning walked along the way, and the villagers she met along the way greeted her warmly. The child was laughing and making trouble behind her. The warm sun in the afternoon made the dog snoring at the door of the house, and a few dandelions blew by its nose. The domestic dog sneezed, opened its black eyes, and ran away after the dandelion.
Ning Ning came to Ah Tie's house, where he taught Wenyu to dance Nuo dance.
Ah Tie's family also has a dog, and when he sees a stranger, he barks wildly.
"What's your name? What's your name?" Ah Tie rushed out of the house and kicked his dog. The dog whimpered and ran away. He took a sip of wine from the bottle, and then burped. He snorted and said, "What are you doing here?"
"I want to ask you about Li Xuan." Ning Ning said.
"He?" Ah Tie didn't seem to want to mention the name very much, waved his hand, and said impatiently, "I can't bear the hardship, I've already left."
"He was injured when he fell into the well, how could he go?" Ningning asked.
"How do I know that?" A Tie Dao, "Maybe because the medical level in a small village like ours is too poor, so go to a big city to find a doctor."
These people's words are all seamless, and there are several flaws in them.
"But he's gone, what about the ancestor worship ceremony?" Ning Ning asked, "Who will play the role of the ghost killer? Or you?"
Compared with Wen Yu, Ah Tie seemed to be even less inclined to discuss this topic. He took another sip of wine and said in a stern voice, "It's not me."
At that moment, Ning Ning felt that wine was really a good thing, and that wine was really his good friend, so he hurriedly asked him, "Who is that?"
Ah Tie opened his mouth and was about to speak, but his eyes looked behind Ning Ning.
Ning Ning looked back quickly.
Shh.
All the children behind them raised a finger and pinned it to their lips silently.
She turned her head again, A Tie had sobered up, and left a cool sentence: "When the day comes, you won't know."
After he finished speaking, he left Ning Ning and the others behind, took the wine bottle in his hand, and staggered back to the house. With a bang, the door closed.
Ning Ning turned around and was about to leave, but stopped when he passed the kennel, saying it was a kennel, but it was actually an old TV case, the screen was gone, and there was some rags in it, Ning Ning bent down and picked it up. A piece of rag with a little blood on the rag. Why is the color of the rag similar to... Wen Yu's clothes
"Landlord, dirty." The children gathered around, "Throw it away."
"Oh." Ning Ning snorted, stuffed the rags into his pocket, then walked across the street and stopped a stylishly dressed couple, "Can I borrow my phone? I'll make a call."
The two couples looked at each other, the woman hesitated for a moment, but the man said first, "I'm sorry, we didn't bring our mobile phones out... There's something else, let's go first."
After they left, Ningning stopped people several times, but the result was the same every time, why? The last time, Ning Ning turned back suddenly, and sure enough, the group of children stood silently behind her with a finger, shhh.
Ning Ning turned her head slowly and walked forward.
"I can't go any further," said the child behind him.
Ning Ning ignored him and continued walking.
"Let's go out of the village."
This is exactly what Ningning wants. Since the phone can't be made, she will go out.
"The landlord ran away!"
With the shouts of several children, the old man sitting in the rocking chair jumped up, the woman washing vegetables at the door of the house put down the vegetables in her hands, and more people came running from a distance, who would have been laughing on the road The person who greeted her now greets her with a hemp rope in her hand: "Lord, where are you going?"
"... I'm not going anywhere." Ning Ning said.
Passing the group of people, she buried her head and walked back.
The villagers she met along the way greeted her with a smile, and the children laughed and made trouble behind her. The warm sun shone on the dog in the afternoon, and the dog sneezed and ran after the dandelion.
Everything was so peaceful and serene, seemingly peaceful and serene.
Actually
When passing by Ah Tie's house again, Ning Ning paused and looked at his kennel.
The old dog who was kicked away by him came back, squatted in the kennel again, bared a white tooth at her, and it was stained with blood, and he didn't know what he had just caught outside to eat.
It's night, the village chief's house.
"I heard that you want to leave the village today?" the village chief asked.
Ning Ning turned her head and looked at him strangely.
what is she looking at? The village chief looked behind him and saw that there was no one there. The children had all gone home at this time in the morning, only the candles swayed behind him, and the shadows on the wall swayed as well. There are more people in the house.
"...Yes." Ning Ning's voice sounded at this time, "I'm about to start school, why hasn't my mother come to pick me up? If she doesn't come, I'll go back by myself."
"It's coming, it's coming." The village chief turned his head and said to her with a smile, "Tomorrow is the ancestor worship ceremony. After tomorrow, you can go back."
"So tonight, you must learn the Nuo dance that belongs to the landlord." The little brother in Tsing Yi stood behind the village chief and said with a smile, "I'll teach you the correct dance method."
