did you lie today
Chapter 24
Gu Chang'an thought that Lu Cheng was going to struggle, but he didn't expect that as soon as he finished expressing his gratitude, the other party would turn off the light and go to bed. His movements were very natural, without any bluntness.
The heating in the quilt can only drive away the chill on Gu Changan's body, but the strong yang energy of the person next to him can warm his cold soul. He subconsciously made a satiated sound, as if he had eaten a big meal.
Lu Cheng heard it, his complexion darkened a bit, he had the illusion that he was being eaten by a wild beast, it was not an illusion, the yang energy was indeed being lost a little bit.
Even if it is eaten, the other party is still an insatiable, ungrateful, sinister and cunning little thing.
The drowsy night was blocked by thick dark curtains, and the room was quiet. Gu Chang'an only shared the bed with Wu Bing when he was so old, and it was only a few cases, each with one head.
It was the first time for me to share the same bed with others like this. The distance was too close, and I had stepped into the safe zone, so I was very uncomfortable.
Besides, Wu Dabing is Gu Changan's confidant, he treats each other as his own brothers, and so does the other party, they are in the kind of relationship that they can get together for the New Year and celebrate the festival when they each get married someday.
This man is not one thing.
Gu Chang'an thought to himself, seeing Lu Cheng's superior appearance, he definitely wouldn't sleep with anyone, his eyes hurt because of his noble aura.
He also has abilities that do not conform to science. He was born with an old wooden spoon in his mouth, while the other was born with a golden spoon. The difference varies from day to day.
I don't know what the situation was at that time.
Lu Cheng's voice suddenly sounded in the darkness: "What are you moving?"
Gu Changan's back was itchy, he rubbed it to no avail, instead he scratched with his hands: "You don't care what I do."
Lu Cheng said impersonally: "If you move again, you will go out."
Gu Changan snorted disdainfully, he continued to scratch his back, and yawned lazily after scratching comfortably.
The bed beside him suddenly sank, and Gu Changan was caught off guard by the warm breath. He held his breath, his whole back was stiff.
Around the corner of Lu Cheng's lips, he chuckled lightly: "Heh..."
The voice is magnetic and pleasant.
Gu Changan did not appear in the legendary state of ear pregnancy. He only felt that the laugh was full of sarcasm. The string in his mind tensed instantly, and he counterattacked subconsciously. As a result, he sucked the breath of the other party when he opened his mouth. Into the lungs.
"What are you doing so close to me?"
Lu Cheng half closed his eyes and said, "Can't you rely on it?"
Gu Chang'an didn't say a word, he kicked him directly under the blanket.
To Lu Cheng, the darkness is like daylight, and his sight is normal. He easily stopped the kick that the young man kicked over: "It's late at night, why are you being naughty in front of the elders?"
"Damn, elder? Naughty? What the hell is this?" Gu Chang'an spewed old blood into his throat.
Lu Cheng waved the young man's feet away, and said in a cold tone, "I'll say it one last time, I'm older than you, and much older."
He lay back, pulled up the quilt, closed his eyes and said, "Sleep, and don't move around."
Gu Changan faced the ceiling: "Much older than me? Are you not human?"
Lu Cheng said without any emotional ups and downs: "Whether I am human or not has nothing to do with you."
Gu Changan twitched one corner of his mouth, and said indifferently: "That's right, I don't care if you are human or not, it's none of my business."
Lu Cheng turned over and turned his back to him, too lazy to speak.
After a while, Gu Changan wiped away the messy emotions, he pushed the man next to him, "I'll sleep again later, what happened to that drowning dream I had?"
There was no sound from the side.
Gu Changan sneered silently, he took out the lighter and flicked it on, looking at the man's face with a cluster of flames.
The eyeballs under Lu Cheng's eyelids moved, and he opened his eyes. His eyes were as deep as a night sky. The flames of the lighter jumped and reflected in his eyes, as if there were stars shining.
After staring at each other for two or three seconds, what Lichun said popped into Gu Chang'an's mind. She said that this man's eyes are so supple, as if he can talk, and there are many emotions in it. Everyone looks like he is looking at a lover.
Gu Changan was disgusted and surrendered. He threw away the lighter, and frantically rubbed the goosebumps on his arms. After rubbing the left side, he rubbed the right side: "Can you stop being so gay?"
Lu Cheng switched the channel abruptly and connected seamlessly: "Ghosts cannot be expelled, only thoughts can be expelled."
Gu Changan quickly entered his channel: "Read?"
"Resentment, evil, obsession, love, etc." Lu Cheng said lightly, "Every emotion that exceeds the normal level will become a thought."
Gu Chang'an lay down under the blanket, with a casual and relaxed posture: "Then how do you let the ghosts staying in the yang world leave?"
Lu Cheng's thin lips twitched lightly: "Voluntary."
"Voluntary?" Gu Changan was incredulous, "The underworld doesn't care?"
Lu Cheng moved his thin lips: "I'm not dead yet. When I die, I'll ask the manager of the underworld, and then come up to answer your question."
"..." When that time comes, don't come up to me.
Gu Changan pressed the lighter again, his face glowed a faint blue under the light of the fire, Lu Cheng not only had yin and yang eyes, but also had psychic ability, a calculating light appeared in his eyes.
A hand stretched out, took away Gu Changan's lighter, and threw it on the table some distance away from the bed without any mistakes, making a "bang" sound.
Gu Changan was stunned and then laughed. The darkness had no effect on this person. Interestingly, he propped his head on one hand: "Hey, you still haven't told me about that dream."
Lu Cheng closed his eyes: "I'm just here to help you overcome the catastrophe, I don't care about the rest."
Gu Changan squinted: "Isn't it easy for you?"
"That's true." Lu Cheng said ruthlessly, "But I don't want to do that."
Gu Changan's temples twitched, he turned the man's shoulders, and showed the man his smiling face: "Do me a favor."
Lu Cheng raised his eyelids and looked over.
There are people in this world who are born to be liars, such as the one in front of him, who is clearly pretending, full of bad water, deep in the city, and full of thoughts, but it makes people think that he is sincere.
Gu Changan raised his eyebrows: "You have other things to do here, right? So, you help me once, and I help you once, how about it?"
Lu Cheng remained silent, as if he was considering whether the deal was worthwhile.
Gu Chang'an tried his best to sell himself like a prince: "I can't deal with ghosts, but when it comes to dealing with people, I'm better than you."
Lu Cheng said, "Deal."
Gu Chang'an let out a sigh of relief, with these words, things will be easier in the future: "Speak."
There was a slight sound in his ear, the sound of the snack bag being opened, Gu Changan turned his head and said, "Gum candy? Don't you eat before going to bed?"
"I'm annoyed by you, so I plan to make an exception." Lu Cheng said while eating, "The woman with the red birthmark on her face during the day has a ghost in her house..."
Gu Changan excitedly interrupted: "Fuck! Sure enough!"
Lu Cheng said, "You come."
Gu Changan laughed: "Look at what you said, where can I come, you should come."
Hearing the sound of chewing in his ear, he couldn't help licking his lips: "It's boring to eat alone, give me some, and I'll eat with you."
Lu Cheng refused to give it, and asked slowly: "Is sugar more important, or things more important?"
Gu Changan felt mmp in his heart, and said with a smile: "Of course it's important, so you go on."
After Lu Cheng finished eating a piece of gummy candy, he took one out of the bag and ate it: "When you went in with that woman in your arms, the ghost was in the yard, and she closed the door."
Gu Changan clicked his tongue, no wonder he felt the wind around his neck at that time, he waited for a long time but did not wait for the follow-up: "And then?"
Lu Cheng said: "There is no after."
"..."
Gu Changan stroked his hair: "Is it male or female?"
Lu Cheng said, "Female."
Gu Chang'an asked a series of questions: "How old are you, what do you look like, what are you wearing, what is your relationship with that woman, why do you stay at her house, have you communicated?"
Lu Cheng answered irrelevantly: "People are just full of fear of the unknown, and when it comes to ghosts, they look like they want to pee. In fact, people are the scariest. Many ghosts are very weak, subject to many restrictions in the world, and they don't have much consciousness in life. , relying on all kinds of thoughts to stay in the world, but the appearance retains the appearance of death, which looks scary, and some people don’t even know that they are dead, and they are still walking on the original track of life.”
Gu Changan frowned: "You mean, that ghost didn't know that he was dead?"
Lu Cheng said, "That's just an example."
Gu Changan rolled his eyes, this person really came to help him, not just to trip him up?
"That woman has been staying with ghosts recently, and she has absorbed a lot of resentment." Lu Cheng said, "You were too close to her, and you got a little bit of it, so you had such a dream at night."
Gu Changan inhaled: "According to what you said, wouldn't she sleep every night..."
Lu Cheng said lightly: "Otherwise, how could there be neither human nor ghost?"
Gu Changan asked abruptly, "Can you draw?"
Lu Cheng said, "It's pretty proficient."
Gu Changan got out of bed and turned on the light, handed over the paper and pen, and asked Lu Cheng to draw the appearance of the ghost. He glanced at the gummy candy in the other party's hand, swallowed and said, "You draw first, I'll go to the next one." eat."
"Give me a bowl too."
Lu Cheng raised his eyes, and looked over as if he was looking at his own incompetent son: "Don't put weird things, I don't want cooking wine, raw sesame oil, etc., just soup and noodles, okay?"
Gu Changan slammed the door and went out with a sullen face.
When Gu Changan turned off the flame, Lu Cheng also put down his pen and finished it.
Gu Changan went into the room and picked up the paper on the table to look at it. Professionally speaking, he is indeed an expert, with neat and smooth lines, and there is no fault in the proportions and demeanor of the body, but regardless of professionalism...
What does a frame on the neck mean?Gu Changan pressed the paper in front of the man: "Where's the face?"
Lu Cheng grabbed noodles and ate them: "I'm face-blind."
"Except for the face, I've drawn everything for you. If you still don't get anything, then it's just that your brain is flooded."
Gu Changan propped his hands on the edge of the wooden table, bent his back and looked at the man: "Is the noodles delicious?"
Lu Cheng didn't lift his eyelids: "Did you spit in your face?"
Gu Chang'an sneered: "Only a fool would do that kind of stupid behavior."
"Indeed." Lu Cheng blew on the noodles on the chopsticks, "If you vomit, we'll be kissing indirectly."
Gu Changan took a few steps back with a twitching face, damn it, this person is sick.
Around 03:30, there was a soft noise in the chicken coop in the yard, and two or three chickens came out to drink and eat. Waiting for the dawn, Gu Changan and Lu Cheng lay back on the bed.
Gu Changan pulled the quilt, Lu Cheng was empty, and he pulled the quilt back.
Immediately afterwards, Gu Changan tugged again: "I have one foot outside."
Lu Cheng said nonchalantly, "If you hadn't spread your legs so big, that foot wouldn't be outside."
Gu Changan sat up abruptly. He groped in the dark and stared at the man. His face sank and he lay back like a salted fish. Tomorrow, he must dry the quilt and wash the sheets. This was his last thought before his consciousness disappeared. .
The next day was cloudy, with dark clouds and strong winds.
Gu Chang'an's face was like the weather, the old man didn't say anything, and he was about to drip water. The quilt on his bed was still damp. There were two quilts in the closet, both of which were covered by the old man before his death. The pungent musty smell cannot be covered without drying.
A crucian carp jumped in the big tank, and an angry voice came out from its stomach. It was Chen Yang next door.
"I'm having dinner with some colleagues tonight."
"What are you playing? I'm so tired at work that I don't have the energy to play. After dinner, I'll go to the Internet cafe with them to play games and I'll be back."
Gu Changan put a tank in the yard, and threw in the fish that could not be eaten. The lies of the neighbors and neighbors were all in the belly of the fish, including the lies told by passers-by in front of his house. He never took out any of them. Not much value.
It was also a coincidence today, as soon as Gu Changan heard Chen Yang's lies, he and his wife brought their three or four-year-old son to the door, saying that he was going to a relative's house to do some errands, and it was inconvenient to take his son with him, so he asked if he could leave it here to help Take a look.
Gu Changan took a bite of the apple: "Can you come back before eleven o'clock? I'm going out in the afternoon."
Chen Yang had a smile on his face: "Okay, okay, please trouble Chang'an."
The woman next to her was his wife, Hu Juan. She was pretty, she was in good shape, and she had a good temperament. She couldn't tell she was the mother of a child.
The food in other people's pots is always more fragrant than that in your own pot.
Gu Chang'an's eyes wandered between Chen Yang and Hu Juan, and he forgot when it happened. He had heard Hu Juan's lie and told Chen Yang that if he was looking for a lady outside, remember You have to wear a T. If you don't wear it, please tell her that she is afraid of death and doesn't want to get that kind of disease. She also said that she will divorce him.
Since it was a lie, it means that Hu Juan didn't have that kind of thought in her heart at the time, or she was not firm enough.
Gu Changan heard similar lies more than once, and they were all told by Hu Juan to Chen Yang.
The husband and wife live together for a long time, and they will know what they should know and what they should not know. Hu Juan should know it in her heart, but she didn't pierce the window paper.
Gu Changan doesn't understand the way of husband and wife, and he doesn't want to study it. It has nothing to do with him.
Lies know no country, gender, occupation or age.
When the little boy stared at the half apple in Gu Changan's hand and said sweetly, "Brother Changan, you are so handsome", the same words came to his ears from the jar.
Gu Changan's mood suddenly became worse. This was clearly the truth, how could it be a lie?Isn't he handsome?
With his elbows on his legs, he leaned his upper body forward to get closer to the little boy, with a smile on his pale and delicate face: "Really?"
The little boy Chickie Peckmi nodded: "Really! Brother Chang'an is really handsome!"
Gu Changan heard the same words from the fish's belly again, he washed an apple for the little boy: "Tell brother, why are you lying?"
The little boy held the apple and gnawed it happily, ignoring his elder brother.
Lu Cheng's teasing voice sounded from the rear left: "Why don't you know you're lying? I think children want to call you sister more than brother."
"..."
Gu Changan raised his right hand and threw the apple core into the trash bin not far away. He looked at the man with a cold light in his eyes behind the lens. How long will he live here?Two months, three months, half a year?
I'm afraid he would have been pissed off before the catastrophe came.
Lu Cheng turned a blind eye and buttoned his coat slowly: "I'm going out for a while, and I'll be back at night."
Gu Changan didn't care where he was going, but only cared about the part related to himself: "When will I go to Zhang Long's place?"
"Tomorrow." Lu Cheng glanced at the young man, "Don't call me, I won't answer, if there are more than three calls, I'll just turn off the phone."
"Think too much." Gu Changan pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, "If you ask me to hit you, I won't hit you either."
Lu Cheng gave a "that's the best" look.
Another neighbor came to the door, holding two knives of bacon in his left hand, and a bunch of bacon legs in his right hand, which were strung together with a rope. The color looked very appetizing.
Before Gu Chang'an could make a move, Lu Cheng had already received it in his hand with a smile on his face, thanking him in a gentle voice. The tall and elegant paired with bacon and chicken legs seemed extremely out of place, but he still had to show an approachable attitude .
I really don't know who is hypocritical.
As soon as Lu Cheng left, the courtyard became quiet, and the sound of the wind became more desolate and lonely. This old house looked like a tomb, and there were widows living in it.
"Hey."
Gu Changan rubbed the little boy's jet-black pot head, baby, it's better to be at your age, carefree, it's boring to grow up, it's even more boring to not grow up suddenly, I feel like a monster, abandoned by nature .
Gu Changan tore up a few pieces of waste paper and folded the cardboard, and he and the little boy were half of each other. They played in the house all morning.
As soon as Chen Yang and Hu Juan came back, Gu Changan handed over the child to them, and went to Zhang Long's side in the wind. It was quite far away, and the price of a taxi was not affordable at all.
At noon, the old man was still shining shoes on the corner of the street.
Gu Changan bought two roujiamo and gave one to the old man: "This is hot, eat it quickly, it won't taste good if it gets cold."
The old man picked it up with rough hands, and kept saying thank you.
Gu Changan found a shelter from the wind and stood there: "Master, why are you still not going back at this hour?"
The old man's wrinkled face is full of grooves left by the years: "I am alone when I go back. The pots and pans are cold, and I don't want to cook."
Gu Changan ate the meat bun in his mouth: "Where are the family members?"
"It's all outside." The old man sighed, "It turns out that my son and daughter-in-law threw their grandson to me, and it's good to have grandsons following me and talking with me. I just came out and set up a stall, I didn’t want to stay at home, I didn’t even have anyone to talk to, it was lifeless and boring.”
As he said that, he sighed again: "I don't have a few years to live with this old bone. I set up a stall to earn some money for my family. Maybe I can save some money for my grandson to buy small toys."
Gu Chang'an said with a smile: "The uncle and the grandson have a good relationship."
"My grandson is so good." The old man's cloudy eyes were full of kindness, and he gestured as he said, "He is not in good health, he is so tall, with a small head and a smart head, no other child can compare to him..."
Gu Changan listened to the old man praising his grandson, with a proud expression on his face, he didn't interrupt, and only said after listening: "He will be a promising person in the future."
The old man was happy: "What will happen in the future will be discussed in the future, but ah, as long as my grandson does not learn to be bad, he will not be far behind. He has been smart since he was a child."
Gu Changan took advantage of the situation and said a few words, he said with a smile: "Today's business looks good."
"Better than yesterday."
There were several pairs of shoes by the old man's feet. When Gu Changan came over just now, he was polishing a pair of blue high-heeled leather shoes. There were bow accessories on each side of the shoes, and small chains hung on them. When the wind blew, they rattled.
Gu Changan took a closer look and found that those pairs of shoes were probably new and hadn't been worn much, so he casually asked who put them here.
The old man blurted out, "These are shoes for the dead."
It seemed that he accidentally slipped his mouth, he suddenly stopped smiling, and put the Rougamo in his hand on the wooden box: "Young man, don't ask any more."
Gu Changan sighed: "Is that so..."
There is indeed such a custom in the town. When someone dies in a family, they will prepare a few pairs of shoes to be buried with them.
Gu Chang'an chatted with the old man for a while, then walked in, turned around to the alley of Zhang Long's house, Liu Cuifang was still not at home, and the house on the right was empty.
A criminal policeman was visiting and investigating nearby, and the team leader was also there. She was a woman in her thirties and 40s.
The next day, Gu Chang'an went with Lu Cheng, but Liu Cuifang still didn't come back, it seemed that she didn't intend to care about gossip and was going to stay with Qian Fei.
There's someone in the house on the right.
The purpose of Gu Changan's trip this time is to find out the relationship between that ghost and the woman, and whether she was involved in Zhang Long's death.
Knowing that there is a ghost in this house, Gu Changan's nerve endings were tense from the moment he entered the door. When he entered the main room, he casually looked at the shoes in the corner and was stunned.
The outermost ones are the few pairs of shoes that Gu Changan saw at the old man's shoe stall yesterday.
"Da da da--"
There was the crisp sound of high-heeled shoes approaching from one side, and Gu Changan looked around, and found that the woman was not wearing the old pair of sandals, but a pair of blue leather shoes.
There are bow accessories on each side, and the small chain hanging down rattles as she moves.
The leather shoes didn't fit the woman's feet, they were too small, and the leather on the heel was squeezed and wrinkled, with a big red spot, which looked like it was broken, but she walked happily.
What the old man said came to Gu Chang'an's mind, and a chill ran up his ankles, covering his whole body in an instant, as if in ice water, he shivered, and unconsciously moved closer to where Lu Cheng was standing.
Lu Cheng glanced at him, his gaze was a bit indescribable.
Gu Changan's eyes fell on the woman, and he smiled nonchalantly: "The shoes on your feet..."
The woman lowered her head and kept brushing her hair towards her cheeks with her hands. The red birthmark still looked scary. She coughed a few times and said in a low voice, "It was given by someone else."
Gu Changan said, "It's too young."
"Hmm..." The woman buried her head lower, moved her feet back, and said incoherently, "I, I think the shoes are beautiful, I have never worn such beautiful shoes, and wearing them hurts better than sandals."
As he spoke, he coughed violently: "Cough...cough cough...cough cough cough..."
Lu Cheng was silent all the time, but his sense of presence was too strong, and he exuded a terrifying aura invisibly. The woman coughed and peeked timidly at the same time.
Seeing the woman move closer to the young man, with peace of mind in her eyes, Lu Cheng silently sneered.
People are easily confused by appearances. They look like rabbits that are harmless to humans and animals, but sometimes they are actually wild wolves that eat people without spitting out their bones.
Gu Chang'an felt something was wrong after a short thought, and he asked the woman beside him, "Did you take your shoes to the shoe stall on the corner yesterday?"
The woman looked up abruptly, as if she didn't expect him to know.
"I passed by there yesterday, and I thought your shoes looked familiar." Gu Changan raised the corners of his mouth, with a non-aggressive smile on his face, and his voice was soft, "You are very suitable for blue."
The woman lowered her head again, trying her best to suppress her coughing, as if she was afraid of being disgusted.
Lu Cheng glanced at the young man with cold eyes, what are you flirting with at this time?
Gu Changan showed contempt, which eye of yours saw me flirting?Can you have something clean in your head?
Lu Cheng suddenly looked behind him.
Gu Changan's face was stiff, and he mouthed and asked, "Is it a ghost?"
Lu Cheng looked away without saying a word.
Gu Changan restrained his violent emotions, he strode up to the man and winked.
At this moment, the woman said in a low voice: "My feet are big, and the shoes...cough, the shoes don't fit me well, my cousin can wear them, and I can wear them when she comes next time, cough cough."
The emotion in Gu Changan's eyes instantly disappeared, and he put on a curious expression: "Your cousin?"
The woman hummed.
Gu Changan felt that he had grabbed something, and he asked calmly, "Where is she?"
Probably because she didn't understand why Gu Changan asked, the woman glanced at him before saying, "Working in the city."
Gu Changan asked: "Has she been to your place before?"
"I've been here and stayed for a few days." The woman looked at the toes of her leather shoes, her tone was a bit lonely, "Then she left again and went back to the city."
She covered her face with her hands: "Yes, my cousin is not afraid of me."
Gu Changan asked again: "When was the last time you saw her?"
The woman looked up at him for the second time, her eyes were full of puzzlement, but she didn't dodge or feel guilty: "Ten days ago."
Gu Changan asked: "Then do you still remember what clothes she was wearing that day?"
The woman took a lot of effort while recalling and describing.
Gu Changan gasped. The clothes described by this woman were almost the same as those painted by Lu Cheng, and the ghost in the room was her cousin.
He went to see Lu Cheng for confirmation.
Lu Cheng raised his head high to Gu Changan, which was a response.
Gu Chang'an looked at the woman with scrutiny. She didn't know that her cousin was dead, and after death, she became a lonely ghost wandering around her. For some reason, she never went to the underworld to reincarnate.
"What's the relationship between your cousin and Zhang Long?"
"Very, very good." The woman covered her mouth and coughed, her skinny body trembled violently, and the part of her face that was not covered by the birthmark became red because of it, "Ahem...if she knew...that Zhang Long Dead...cough...would be very sad."
Gu Chang'an stopped talking, thinking about it.
Lu Cheng didn't make a sound, and his eyes fell on the woman's left.
There was a sudden gust of wind in the room, Gu Changan scratched his neck, and pretended to ask the woman casually: "By the way, when you took the shoes to the shoe stall yesterday, did you tell the uncle that the shoes are for your cousin?"
The woman stopped coughing and nodded.
Gu Changan's face changed, the uncle said that the shoes are for the dead.
The heating in the quilt can only drive away the chill on Gu Changan's body, but the strong yang energy of the person next to him can warm his cold soul. He subconsciously made a satiated sound, as if he had eaten a big meal.
Lu Cheng heard it, his complexion darkened a bit, he had the illusion that he was being eaten by a wild beast, it was not an illusion, the yang energy was indeed being lost a little bit.
Even if it is eaten, the other party is still an insatiable, ungrateful, sinister and cunning little thing.
The drowsy night was blocked by thick dark curtains, and the room was quiet. Gu Chang'an only shared the bed with Wu Bing when he was so old, and it was only a few cases, each with one head.
It was the first time for me to share the same bed with others like this. The distance was too close, and I had stepped into the safe zone, so I was very uncomfortable.
Besides, Wu Dabing is Gu Changan's confidant, he treats each other as his own brothers, and so does the other party, they are in the kind of relationship that they can get together for the New Year and celebrate the festival when they each get married someday.
This man is not one thing.
Gu Chang'an thought to himself, seeing Lu Cheng's superior appearance, he definitely wouldn't sleep with anyone, his eyes hurt because of his noble aura.
He also has abilities that do not conform to science. He was born with an old wooden spoon in his mouth, while the other was born with a golden spoon. The difference varies from day to day.
I don't know what the situation was at that time.
Lu Cheng's voice suddenly sounded in the darkness: "What are you moving?"
Gu Changan's back was itchy, he rubbed it to no avail, instead he scratched with his hands: "You don't care what I do."
Lu Cheng said impersonally: "If you move again, you will go out."
Gu Changan snorted disdainfully, he continued to scratch his back, and yawned lazily after scratching comfortably.
The bed beside him suddenly sank, and Gu Changan was caught off guard by the warm breath. He held his breath, his whole back was stiff.
Around the corner of Lu Cheng's lips, he chuckled lightly: "Heh..."
The voice is magnetic and pleasant.
Gu Changan did not appear in the legendary state of ear pregnancy. He only felt that the laugh was full of sarcasm. The string in his mind tensed instantly, and he counterattacked subconsciously. As a result, he sucked the breath of the other party when he opened his mouth. Into the lungs.
"What are you doing so close to me?"
Lu Cheng half closed his eyes and said, "Can't you rely on it?"
Gu Chang'an didn't say a word, he kicked him directly under the blanket.
To Lu Cheng, the darkness is like daylight, and his sight is normal. He easily stopped the kick that the young man kicked over: "It's late at night, why are you being naughty in front of the elders?"
"Damn, elder? Naughty? What the hell is this?" Gu Chang'an spewed old blood into his throat.
Lu Cheng waved the young man's feet away, and said in a cold tone, "I'll say it one last time, I'm older than you, and much older."
He lay back, pulled up the quilt, closed his eyes and said, "Sleep, and don't move around."
Gu Changan faced the ceiling: "Much older than me? Are you not human?"
Lu Cheng said without any emotional ups and downs: "Whether I am human or not has nothing to do with you."
Gu Changan twitched one corner of his mouth, and said indifferently: "That's right, I don't care if you are human or not, it's none of my business."
Lu Cheng turned over and turned his back to him, too lazy to speak.
After a while, Gu Changan wiped away the messy emotions, he pushed the man next to him, "I'll sleep again later, what happened to that drowning dream I had?"
There was no sound from the side.
Gu Changan sneered silently, he took out the lighter and flicked it on, looking at the man's face with a cluster of flames.
The eyeballs under Lu Cheng's eyelids moved, and he opened his eyes. His eyes were as deep as a night sky. The flames of the lighter jumped and reflected in his eyes, as if there were stars shining.
After staring at each other for two or three seconds, what Lichun said popped into Gu Chang'an's mind. She said that this man's eyes are so supple, as if he can talk, and there are many emotions in it. Everyone looks like he is looking at a lover.
Gu Changan was disgusted and surrendered. He threw away the lighter, and frantically rubbed the goosebumps on his arms. After rubbing the left side, he rubbed the right side: "Can you stop being so gay?"
Lu Cheng switched the channel abruptly and connected seamlessly: "Ghosts cannot be expelled, only thoughts can be expelled."
Gu Changan quickly entered his channel: "Read?"
"Resentment, evil, obsession, love, etc." Lu Cheng said lightly, "Every emotion that exceeds the normal level will become a thought."
Gu Chang'an lay down under the blanket, with a casual and relaxed posture: "Then how do you let the ghosts staying in the yang world leave?"
Lu Cheng's thin lips twitched lightly: "Voluntary."
"Voluntary?" Gu Changan was incredulous, "The underworld doesn't care?"
Lu Cheng moved his thin lips: "I'm not dead yet. When I die, I'll ask the manager of the underworld, and then come up to answer your question."
"..." When that time comes, don't come up to me.
Gu Changan pressed the lighter again, his face glowed a faint blue under the light of the fire, Lu Cheng not only had yin and yang eyes, but also had psychic ability, a calculating light appeared in his eyes.
A hand stretched out, took away Gu Changan's lighter, and threw it on the table some distance away from the bed without any mistakes, making a "bang" sound.
Gu Changan was stunned and then laughed. The darkness had no effect on this person. Interestingly, he propped his head on one hand: "Hey, you still haven't told me about that dream."
Lu Cheng closed his eyes: "I'm just here to help you overcome the catastrophe, I don't care about the rest."
Gu Changan squinted: "Isn't it easy for you?"
"That's true." Lu Cheng said ruthlessly, "But I don't want to do that."
Gu Changan's temples twitched, he turned the man's shoulders, and showed the man his smiling face: "Do me a favor."
Lu Cheng raised his eyelids and looked over.
There are people in this world who are born to be liars, such as the one in front of him, who is clearly pretending, full of bad water, deep in the city, and full of thoughts, but it makes people think that he is sincere.
Gu Changan raised his eyebrows: "You have other things to do here, right? So, you help me once, and I help you once, how about it?"
Lu Cheng remained silent, as if he was considering whether the deal was worthwhile.
Gu Chang'an tried his best to sell himself like a prince: "I can't deal with ghosts, but when it comes to dealing with people, I'm better than you."
Lu Cheng said, "Deal."
Gu Chang'an let out a sigh of relief, with these words, things will be easier in the future: "Speak."
There was a slight sound in his ear, the sound of the snack bag being opened, Gu Changan turned his head and said, "Gum candy? Don't you eat before going to bed?"
"I'm annoyed by you, so I plan to make an exception." Lu Cheng said while eating, "The woman with the red birthmark on her face during the day has a ghost in her house..."
Gu Changan excitedly interrupted: "Fuck! Sure enough!"
Lu Cheng said, "You come."
Gu Changan laughed: "Look at what you said, where can I come, you should come."
Hearing the sound of chewing in his ear, he couldn't help licking his lips: "It's boring to eat alone, give me some, and I'll eat with you."
Lu Cheng refused to give it, and asked slowly: "Is sugar more important, or things more important?"
Gu Changan felt mmp in his heart, and said with a smile: "Of course it's important, so you go on."
After Lu Cheng finished eating a piece of gummy candy, he took one out of the bag and ate it: "When you went in with that woman in your arms, the ghost was in the yard, and she closed the door."
Gu Changan clicked his tongue, no wonder he felt the wind around his neck at that time, he waited for a long time but did not wait for the follow-up: "And then?"
Lu Cheng said: "There is no after."
"..."
Gu Changan stroked his hair: "Is it male or female?"
Lu Cheng said, "Female."
Gu Chang'an asked a series of questions: "How old are you, what do you look like, what are you wearing, what is your relationship with that woman, why do you stay at her house, have you communicated?"
Lu Cheng answered irrelevantly: "People are just full of fear of the unknown, and when it comes to ghosts, they look like they want to pee. In fact, people are the scariest. Many ghosts are very weak, subject to many restrictions in the world, and they don't have much consciousness in life. , relying on all kinds of thoughts to stay in the world, but the appearance retains the appearance of death, which looks scary, and some people don’t even know that they are dead, and they are still walking on the original track of life.”
Gu Changan frowned: "You mean, that ghost didn't know that he was dead?"
Lu Cheng said, "That's just an example."
Gu Changan rolled his eyes, this person really came to help him, not just to trip him up?
"That woman has been staying with ghosts recently, and she has absorbed a lot of resentment." Lu Cheng said, "You were too close to her, and you got a little bit of it, so you had such a dream at night."
Gu Changan inhaled: "According to what you said, wouldn't she sleep every night..."
Lu Cheng said lightly: "Otherwise, how could there be neither human nor ghost?"
Gu Changan asked abruptly, "Can you draw?"
Lu Cheng said, "It's pretty proficient."
Gu Changan got out of bed and turned on the light, handed over the paper and pen, and asked Lu Cheng to draw the appearance of the ghost. He glanced at the gummy candy in the other party's hand, swallowed and said, "You draw first, I'll go to the next one." eat."
"Give me a bowl too."
Lu Cheng raised his eyes, and looked over as if he was looking at his own incompetent son: "Don't put weird things, I don't want cooking wine, raw sesame oil, etc., just soup and noodles, okay?"
Gu Changan slammed the door and went out with a sullen face.
When Gu Changan turned off the flame, Lu Cheng also put down his pen and finished it.
Gu Changan went into the room and picked up the paper on the table to look at it. Professionally speaking, he is indeed an expert, with neat and smooth lines, and there is no fault in the proportions and demeanor of the body, but regardless of professionalism...
What does a frame on the neck mean?Gu Changan pressed the paper in front of the man: "Where's the face?"
Lu Cheng grabbed noodles and ate them: "I'm face-blind."
"Except for the face, I've drawn everything for you. If you still don't get anything, then it's just that your brain is flooded."
Gu Changan propped his hands on the edge of the wooden table, bent his back and looked at the man: "Is the noodles delicious?"
Lu Cheng didn't lift his eyelids: "Did you spit in your face?"
Gu Chang'an sneered: "Only a fool would do that kind of stupid behavior."
"Indeed." Lu Cheng blew on the noodles on the chopsticks, "If you vomit, we'll be kissing indirectly."
Gu Changan took a few steps back with a twitching face, damn it, this person is sick.
Around 03:30, there was a soft noise in the chicken coop in the yard, and two or three chickens came out to drink and eat. Waiting for the dawn, Gu Changan and Lu Cheng lay back on the bed.
Gu Changan pulled the quilt, Lu Cheng was empty, and he pulled the quilt back.
Immediately afterwards, Gu Changan tugged again: "I have one foot outside."
Lu Cheng said nonchalantly, "If you hadn't spread your legs so big, that foot wouldn't be outside."
Gu Changan sat up abruptly. He groped in the dark and stared at the man. His face sank and he lay back like a salted fish. Tomorrow, he must dry the quilt and wash the sheets. This was his last thought before his consciousness disappeared. .
The next day was cloudy, with dark clouds and strong winds.
Gu Chang'an's face was like the weather, the old man didn't say anything, and he was about to drip water. The quilt on his bed was still damp. There were two quilts in the closet, both of which were covered by the old man before his death. The pungent musty smell cannot be covered without drying.
A crucian carp jumped in the big tank, and an angry voice came out from its stomach. It was Chen Yang next door.
"I'm having dinner with some colleagues tonight."
"What are you playing? I'm so tired at work that I don't have the energy to play. After dinner, I'll go to the Internet cafe with them to play games and I'll be back."
Gu Changan put a tank in the yard, and threw in the fish that could not be eaten. The lies of the neighbors and neighbors were all in the belly of the fish, including the lies told by passers-by in front of his house. He never took out any of them. Not much value.
It was also a coincidence today, as soon as Gu Changan heard Chen Yang's lies, he and his wife brought their three or four-year-old son to the door, saying that he was going to a relative's house to do some errands, and it was inconvenient to take his son with him, so he asked if he could leave it here to help Take a look.
Gu Changan took a bite of the apple: "Can you come back before eleven o'clock? I'm going out in the afternoon."
Chen Yang had a smile on his face: "Okay, okay, please trouble Chang'an."
The woman next to her was his wife, Hu Juan. She was pretty, she was in good shape, and she had a good temperament. She couldn't tell she was the mother of a child.
The food in other people's pots is always more fragrant than that in your own pot.
Gu Chang'an's eyes wandered between Chen Yang and Hu Juan, and he forgot when it happened. He had heard Hu Juan's lie and told Chen Yang that if he was looking for a lady outside, remember You have to wear a T. If you don't wear it, please tell her that she is afraid of death and doesn't want to get that kind of disease. She also said that she will divorce him.
Since it was a lie, it means that Hu Juan didn't have that kind of thought in her heart at the time, or she was not firm enough.
Gu Changan heard similar lies more than once, and they were all told by Hu Juan to Chen Yang.
The husband and wife live together for a long time, and they will know what they should know and what they should not know. Hu Juan should know it in her heart, but she didn't pierce the window paper.
Gu Changan doesn't understand the way of husband and wife, and he doesn't want to study it. It has nothing to do with him.
Lies know no country, gender, occupation or age.
When the little boy stared at the half apple in Gu Changan's hand and said sweetly, "Brother Changan, you are so handsome", the same words came to his ears from the jar.
Gu Changan's mood suddenly became worse. This was clearly the truth, how could it be a lie?Isn't he handsome?
With his elbows on his legs, he leaned his upper body forward to get closer to the little boy, with a smile on his pale and delicate face: "Really?"
The little boy Chickie Peckmi nodded: "Really! Brother Chang'an is really handsome!"
Gu Changan heard the same words from the fish's belly again, he washed an apple for the little boy: "Tell brother, why are you lying?"
The little boy held the apple and gnawed it happily, ignoring his elder brother.
Lu Cheng's teasing voice sounded from the rear left: "Why don't you know you're lying? I think children want to call you sister more than brother."
"..."
Gu Changan raised his right hand and threw the apple core into the trash bin not far away. He looked at the man with a cold light in his eyes behind the lens. How long will he live here?Two months, three months, half a year?
I'm afraid he would have been pissed off before the catastrophe came.
Lu Cheng turned a blind eye and buttoned his coat slowly: "I'm going out for a while, and I'll be back at night."
Gu Changan didn't care where he was going, but only cared about the part related to himself: "When will I go to Zhang Long's place?"
"Tomorrow." Lu Cheng glanced at the young man, "Don't call me, I won't answer, if there are more than three calls, I'll just turn off the phone."
"Think too much." Gu Changan pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, "If you ask me to hit you, I won't hit you either."
Lu Cheng gave a "that's the best" look.
Another neighbor came to the door, holding two knives of bacon in his left hand, and a bunch of bacon legs in his right hand, which were strung together with a rope. The color looked very appetizing.
Before Gu Chang'an could make a move, Lu Cheng had already received it in his hand with a smile on his face, thanking him in a gentle voice. The tall and elegant paired with bacon and chicken legs seemed extremely out of place, but he still had to show an approachable attitude .
I really don't know who is hypocritical.
As soon as Lu Cheng left, the courtyard became quiet, and the sound of the wind became more desolate and lonely. This old house looked like a tomb, and there were widows living in it.
"Hey."
Gu Changan rubbed the little boy's jet-black pot head, baby, it's better to be at your age, carefree, it's boring to grow up, it's even more boring to not grow up suddenly, I feel like a monster, abandoned by nature .
Gu Changan tore up a few pieces of waste paper and folded the cardboard, and he and the little boy were half of each other. They played in the house all morning.
As soon as Chen Yang and Hu Juan came back, Gu Changan handed over the child to them, and went to Zhang Long's side in the wind. It was quite far away, and the price of a taxi was not affordable at all.
At noon, the old man was still shining shoes on the corner of the street.
Gu Changan bought two roujiamo and gave one to the old man: "This is hot, eat it quickly, it won't taste good if it gets cold."
The old man picked it up with rough hands, and kept saying thank you.
Gu Changan found a shelter from the wind and stood there: "Master, why are you still not going back at this hour?"
The old man's wrinkled face is full of grooves left by the years: "I am alone when I go back. The pots and pans are cold, and I don't want to cook."
Gu Changan ate the meat bun in his mouth: "Where are the family members?"
"It's all outside." The old man sighed, "It turns out that my son and daughter-in-law threw their grandson to me, and it's good to have grandsons following me and talking with me. I just came out and set up a stall, I didn’t want to stay at home, I didn’t even have anyone to talk to, it was lifeless and boring.”
As he said that, he sighed again: "I don't have a few years to live with this old bone. I set up a stall to earn some money for my family. Maybe I can save some money for my grandson to buy small toys."
Gu Chang'an said with a smile: "The uncle and the grandson have a good relationship."
"My grandson is so good." The old man's cloudy eyes were full of kindness, and he gestured as he said, "He is not in good health, he is so tall, with a small head and a smart head, no other child can compare to him..."
Gu Changan listened to the old man praising his grandson, with a proud expression on his face, he didn't interrupt, and only said after listening: "He will be a promising person in the future."
The old man was happy: "What will happen in the future will be discussed in the future, but ah, as long as my grandson does not learn to be bad, he will not be far behind. He has been smart since he was a child."
Gu Changan took advantage of the situation and said a few words, he said with a smile: "Today's business looks good."
"Better than yesterday."
There were several pairs of shoes by the old man's feet. When Gu Changan came over just now, he was polishing a pair of blue high-heeled leather shoes. There were bow accessories on each side of the shoes, and small chains hung on them. When the wind blew, they rattled.
Gu Changan took a closer look and found that those pairs of shoes were probably new and hadn't been worn much, so he casually asked who put them here.
The old man blurted out, "These are shoes for the dead."
It seemed that he accidentally slipped his mouth, he suddenly stopped smiling, and put the Rougamo in his hand on the wooden box: "Young man, don't ask any more."
Gu Changan sighed: "Is that so..."
There is indeed such a custom in the town. When someone dies in a family, they will prepare a few pairs of shoes to be buried with them.
Gu Chang'an chatted with the old man for a while, then walked in, turned around to the alley of Zhang Long's house, Liu Cuifang was still not at home, and the house on the right was empty.
A criminal policeman was visiting and investigating nearby, and the team leader was also there. She was a woman in her thirties and 40s.
The next day, Gu Chang'an went with Lu Cheng, but Liu Cuifang still didn't come back, it seemed that she didn't intend to care about gossip and was going to stay with Qian Fei.
There's someone in the house on the right.
The purpose of Gu Changan's trip this time is to find out the relationship between that ghost and the woman, and whether she was involved in Zhang Long's death.
Knowing that there is a ghost in this house, Gu Changan's nerve endings were tense from the moment he entered the door. When he entered the main room, he casually looked at the shoes in the corner and was stunned.
The outermost ones are the few pairs of shoes that Gu Changan saw at the old man's shoe stall yesterday.
"Da da da--"
There was the crisp sound of high-heeled shoes approaching from one side, and Gu Changan looked around, and found that the woman was not wearing the old pair of sandals, but a pair of blue leather shoes.
There are bow accessories on each side, and the small chain hanging down rattles as she moves.
The leather shoes didn't fit the woman's feet, they were too small, and the leather on the heel was squeezed and wrinkled, with a big red spot, which looked like it was broken, but she walked happily.
What the old man said came to Gu Chang'an's mind, and a chill ran up his ankles, covering his whole body in an instant, as if in ice water, he shivered, and unconsciously moved closer to where Lu Cheng was standing.
Lu Cheng glanced at him, his gaze was a bit indescribable.
Gu Changan's eyes fell on the woman, and he smiled nonchalantly: "The shoes on your feet..."
The woman lowered her head and kept brushing her hair towards her cheeks with her hands. The red birthmark still looked scary. She coughed a few times and said in a low voice, "It was given by someone else."
Gu Changan said, "It's too young."
"Hmm..." The woman buried her head lower, moved her feet back, and said incoherently, "I, I think the shoes are beautiful, I have never worn such beautiful shoes, and wearing them hurts better than sandals."
As he spoke, he coughed violently: "Cough...cough cough...cough cough cough..."
Lu Cheng was silent all the time, but his sense of presence was too strong, and he exuded a terrifying aura invisibly. The woman coughed and peeked timidly at the same time.
Seeing the woman move closer to the young man, with peace of mind in her eyes, Lu Cheng silently sneered.
People are easily confused by appearances. They look like rabbits that are harmless to humans and animals, but sometimes they are actually wild wolves that eat people without spitting out their bones.
Gu Chang'an felt something was wrong after a short thought, and he asked the woman beside him, "Did you take your shoes to the shoe stall on the corner yesterday?"
The woman looked up abruptly, as if she didn't expect him to know.
"I passed by there yesterday, and I thought your shoes looked familiar." Gu Changan raised the corners of his mouth, with a non-aggressive smile on his face, and his voice was soft, "You are very suitable for blue."
The woman lowered her head again, trying her best to suppress her coughing, as if she was afraid of being disgusted.
Lu Cheng glanced at the young man with cold eyes, what are you flirting with at this time?
Gu Changan showed contempt, which eye of yours saw me flirting?Can you have something clean in your head?
Lu Cheng suddenly looked behind him.
Gu Changan's face was stiff, and he mouthed and asked, "Is it a ghost?"
Lu Cheng looked away without saying a word.
Gu Changan restrained his violent emotions, he strode up to the man and winked.
At this moment, the woman said in a low voice: "My feet are big, and the shoes...cough, the shoes don't fit me well, my cousin can wear them, and I can wear them when she comes next time, cough cough."
The emotion in Gu Changan's eyes instantly disappeared, and he put on a curious expression: "Your cousin?"
The woman hummed.
Gu Changan felt that he had grabbed something, and he asked calmly, "Where is she?"
Probably because she didn't understand why Gu Changan asked, the woman glanced at him before saying, "Working in the city."
Gu Changan asked: "Has she been to your place before?"
"I've been here and stayed for a few days." The woman looked at the toes of her leather shoes, her tone was a bit lonely, "Then she left again and went back to the city."
She covered her face with her hands: "Yes, my cousin is not afraid of me."
Gu Changan asked again: "When was the last time you saw her?"
The woman looked up at him for the second time, her eyes were full of puzzlement, but she didn't dodge or feel guilty: "Ten days ago."
Gu Changan asked: "Then do you still remember what clothes she was wearing that day?"
The woman took a lot of effort while recalling and describing.
Gu Changan gasped. The clothes described by this woman were almost the same as those painted by Lu Cheng, and the ghost in the room was her cousin.
He went to see Lu Cheng for confirmation.
Lu Cheng raised his head high to Gu Changan, which was a response.
Gu Chang'an looked at the woman with scrutiny. She didn't know that her cousin was dead, and after death, she became a lonely ghost wandering around her. For some reason, she never went to the underworld to reincarnate.
"What's the relationship between your cousin and Zhang Long?"
"Very, very good." The woman covered her mouth and coughed, her skinny body trembled violently, and the part of her face that was not covered by the birthmark became red because of it, "Ahem...if she knew...that Zhang Long Dead...cough...would be very sad."
Gu Chang'an stopped talking, thinking about it.
Lu Cheng didn't make a sound, and his eyes fell on the woman's left.
There was a sudden gust of wind in the room, Gu Changan scratched his neck, and pretended to ask the woman casually: "By the way, when you took the shoes to the shoe stall yesterday, did you tell the uncle that the shoes are for your cousin?"
The woman stopped coughing and nodded.
Gu Changan's face changed, the uncle said that the shoes are for the dead.
