The laughter continued for a while, broke for a while, sometimes floating on the high beams, peeking down with the probe, sometimes under the bed, whispering something in Tingfang's ear.
Ting Fang woke up from her dream with a shiver, and as soon as she took a breath, she saw a figure walking lightly in front of the window, looking very similar to Xie Xiaoyu.
She sat up with a "tom", and the fear that was still pressing in her heart suddenly disappeared, leaving only a conjecture full of malice: what did she get up in the middle of the night for?
Isn't it the first time I've seen so many rare treasures, so I want to take advantage of the dead of night to secretly take one or two?
Thinking of this, she suddenly felt that her body was full of strength, turned over and got out of bed, grabbed her shoes and followed out.
Walking to the door, she leaned on the railing and looked down, and found that Xie Xiaoyu was wearing only a middle coat and walked towards the north side of the courtyard.
Ting Fang raised her eyebrows, "Isn't that a stove room?"
Could it be that this girl is hungry and steals food in the middle of the night?
She snorted coldly, "I made a heartbroken appearance in front of the lieutenant just now, and I didn't move my chopsticks, it turned out to be pretended, but I didn't expect that I underestimated her."
Thinking so, she also quietly slipped downstairs and walked in the direction of the stove room.
The door of the stove room was really open, but there was no light inside, and it was pitch black, just as Tingfang expected.
She chuckled twice, stepped into the stove, and looked at the cupboard where the food was stored by a ray of moonlight leaking through the window.
The cabinet door was open, which was the same as she thought, except that there was no figure there, only two cabinet doors and a thick strand of darkness inside.
Ting Fang was stunned for a moment, and looked away again, but the rest of the stove room was clear at a glance, and there was no Xie Xiaoyu.
Then the only place in the entire stove room where people could hide people was the cupboard, and Ting Fang turned her gaze again, looking straight at the solidified darkness.
She laughed maliciously twice, her voice trembling with excitement, "Miss Xie, what are you doing hiding in this cabinet in the middle of the night, if you are hungry, just tell me, such a sneaky, like a thief, it is not good to say it." ” With that, she took a few steps closer to the cupboard.
There was a low sobbing in her ears, Ting Fang knew that she had found the right place, so the pride in her heart jumped a little higher, she half-squatted down, "Miss Xie, you are crying, oops, I scared you, I'm really sorry, come out quickly, what are you afraid of, I won't eat you again." ” Speaking of the words "eat you", Ting Fang's heart suddenly "popped", and her half-squatting knees became very sore in an instant, as if she couldn't support her upper body, but she still maintained this stiff posture, a pair of eyes involuntarily looked into the cabinet, and her lips opened slightly, as if she couldn't close it at all.
Something is wrong, this cabinet is obviously stuffed with food, and Aunt Wu still complained to her today, saying that in order to welcome Xie Xiaoyu back to the house, she couldn't wait to move all the good things in Xin'an City back, and she closed the cabinet door easily.
But in that case, how can there be room for one person in the cabinet?
The sobbing sound came from the cupboard again, and Ting Fang suddenly caught a glimpse of a white shadow sticking to the top of the cupboard, rushing out like a puddle of water.
Immediately afterward, the scream she had just come out of her throat was blocked by something, and it was so choked.
Aunt Wu turned over in her sleep, muttered something in her mouth, and fell into a deep sleep, if she was awake, she would find that in the stove room, which should have been pitch black, a fire slowly rose, the light was so red that it was bewitching, and from time to time there was a "crackling" popping sound, and the air in the stove room gradually overflowed with a smell of grease burning, and the smell seeped out little by little from the cracks of the windows and doors, and diffused throughout the courtyard.
When the sky was faintly bright, Xie Xiaoyu was awakened by a scream, she opened her sour eyes, got up from the bed and ran outside the house.
As soon as I came to the verandah, I saw Aunt Wu crawling out of the stove room, with a frightened face, as if she had seen a ghost in broad daylight.
Xie Xiaoyu didn't have time to ask, so she hurriedly ran downstairs, grabbed Aunt Wu, who was still crawling on the ground, and asked loudly, "What's wrong?"
What happened?
” Aunt Wu raised her head, but the words were all choked in her heart, and she couldn't say anything, she snorted and panted, pointed her finger in the direction of the stove room, and then turned over and sat on the ground, saying "Amitabha Buddha Amitabha" in her mouth.
Xie Xiaoyu glanced at the stove room in the north and found that a few wisps of black smoke floated out of it, becoming lighter and lighter in the air, turning into a layer of gray mist.
She wondered in her heart, and walked towards the stove room with her legs disobedient, and in front of her, the two rows of red lanterns hung high to welcome her through the door, swayed in the wind in the thin mist of the early morning, as if waving at her.
As soon as she walked to the door of the stove room, Xie Xiaoyu smelled a fragrance, she stopped, and a word floated through her mind: meat.
And it's burnt meat, but who doesn't sleep in the middle of the night and barbecues meat here.
The answer to this question was soon forthcoming, for she caught a sudden glimpse of a pair of feet, which were wearing pink embroidered shoes, the upper of which were two lotus flowers, and the red and yellow core feet were horizontal at the threshold of the stove room, and the feet were jumping straight, and the tips of the feet were like two horizontal blades, and the tips were terrifying.
Xie Xiaoyu gasped, her hand grabbed the door frame tightly, and her nails sank deep into the flesh: she recognized these shoes, it was Tingfang's, and she showed off to herself yesterday, saying that these shoes were made of Shu brocade Looking up along the shoes, there are legs, waist and chest, and then up, it is Tingfang's most cherished face, but now, where should it be?
Xie Xiaoyu clenched his hands into fists and took a breath and stepped into the stove room.
She finally knew where the smell of meat came from, and Tingfang's head was stuffed into the stove, with her neck as the baseline, divided into two completely different parts.
The embers in the stove were not exhausted, and a few sparks were spewed out from time to time, and Ting Fang's head was the source of this spark.
Her skull was now a ball of red and black flesh, all her facial features were glued together, she couldn't tell anything, all her hair was burned, only a few remained, curled like steel wires, stuck on top of her bare head, weird and terrifying.
In a trance, Xie Xiaoyu seemed to see her body move, and the arm that was leaning under her waist was pulled out with difficulty, and her index finger curled up slightly, slowly pointing at herself: "Butterfly butterfly" Xie Xiaoyu's eyes darkened, and his body fell straight to the threshold, falling into a void of darkness.
