After exchanging the wooden card for the room card, they each entered the room and took a rest.
Most of the stalls on the streets of Yaoshi had been set up before they arrived, and the rest began to be filled one after another. More and more lights lit up the entire long street, and it became more and more lively. The sound insulation of the rooms in Longhuai Hotel is always good, even so, you can faintly hear the laughter of people outside the building, as if there has always been only excitement and joy here, and it has been like a day for a hundred years.
The doorman under the archway remembered correctly that Xie Bai really liked to live in Room 204 of Store A every time he came to Yaoshi alone.
This habit was formed during the ten years of waiting for Yin Wushu. At that time, when he came to Yaoshi, he neither went shopping nor bought things, but just stayed in the room by the open window—one day and one night, from Yaoshi When the market opens, don't leave until the market closes.
The second floor of store A is close to the entrance of the demon market, and the view is also good. If you look at it from the window, you won't miss anyone who comes to the demon market.
In the past few years, Xie Bai came to the Demon City no longer to wait for others, but the room 204 has the number 4 in it, even the demon spirits don’t like it very much, if you can skip it, you can skip it, so it is better than other rooms. If the room was vacant for a longer period of time, he simply continued to live in it, almost becoming a regular homeowner after coming and going.
He briefly checked the things in the room, put down the little black cat in his arms that finally started to make noises, and stretched his muscles, and then walked to the mahogany carved window that was so familiar.
He didn't need to push it away, he also knew that the Yunmen Restaurant was opposite, there was a temporary wooden shed stall downstairs, a string of six carved lanterns hung nearby, the temporary ferry was in the distance, and there were countless strangers passing by. The person... He has seen the scenery from this window countless times, and he can almost recreate it in his mind, exactly.
For a period of time, he kept repeating a dream like a demon. When he opened the window, Yin Wushu suddenly appeared among the strangers downstairs. The man walked out of the crowd. Come here, pass through the wooden shed downstairs, walk downstairs, look up and smile at Xie Bai upstairs: "Young man, when are you going to stay upstairs before coming down?"
Then, he would wake up from the dream and stare at a certain point in the darkness for a long time before closing his eyes again.
Xie Bai stood by the window for a while, then raised his hand and pushed half of the window open.
In the end, I saw a tall figure in a black coat striding out of the store. His back was straight and neat, as if he had restrained all his strength, and he had a calm and conspicuous temperament.
It was Yin Wushu.
He walked out two steps, then took a step to the side, then turned around and raised his head. As if he had expected it, he raised his eyebrows and smiled at Xie Bai: "Young man, the night market is all open, how long do you have to stay in the room? Come down, I will Wait for you."
His voice was not high, but in Xie Bai's ears, it was as if he had passed through heavy clouds and fog, it was indistinct and almost completely coincided with a dream.
For a moment, Xie Bai froze by the window, subconsciously feeling that he should wake up again in the next second.
It wasn't until the little black cat running around the room suddenly jumped onto Xie Bai's shoulder and rubbed against his face that he realized that this wasn't a dream of that demon, and he wouldn't always wake up at such a time. He looked at Yin Wushu downstairs, and his heart was suddenly filled with various complicated emotions, and he couldn't tell whether it was sadness or something else.
Shocked by that emotion, he suddenly couldn't help asking in a low voice, "Why don't you open the door?"
He suddenly wanted to ask this question for himself who was wrapped in the wind and snow in front of the Taixuan Dao Gate for so long a hundred years ago: Why didn't you open the door...why didn't you want me all of a sudden...
Chapter 32
Even if it is a kitten or puppy, it would be a little bit reluctant to throw it away after raising it for more than a hundred years...
Why don't you say no...
But the second half of the sentence was too humble, and Xie Bai couldn't say it.
Even for the first half of the sentence, the voice was extremely low, and it rolled down from the bottom of the throat. Except for himself, no one could hear it clearly, let alone Yin Wushu who was downstairs in the busy city.
Yin Wushu saw his lips moving, but didn't hear the content clearly, he just froze for a moment and said, "What?"
Xie Bai's shoulders were straight, his beautiful eyes were half closed because of looking down, and they were sunk in the arc shadow of falling eyelashes. Looking up from downstairs, it is no different from the usual appearance, cold and calm.
Only Xie Bai knew how stiff his body was.
He stared at Yin Wushu's face, was silent for a while, then took a deep breath with frowning slightly, and said in a normal voice: "It's nothing, I'm going down now."
Yin Wushu let out an "um" from downstairs, and kept his head up all the time.
