2395 Doubtful Child
Aya nodded obediently: "Aya knows, Grandpa, don't worry!"
After he finished speaking, he hesitated: "Grandpa, do you really want to leave the Mountain of Regret with her and go to the capital?"
The old ghost nodded: "Yes."
"Then can Aya go with grandpa?"
Grandpa is alone. For so many years, no one has ever been with him. As grandpa gets older, it is always better for him to run errands by his side!
Gui Lao smiled and touched Aya's head and nodded: "Okay, Aya will go with grandpa."
When Gui Lao was the only one left in the room, his usually dull eyes suddenly burst into excitement. His hands were almost shaking, and he wanted to laugh but wanted to cry.
Gu Xiaowan lay on the Babu bed and fell asleep soon.
She didn't know how long she slept before she woke up faintly.
It was already dark outside, and Gu Xiaowan had a really comfortable sleep this time. She didn't have any nightmares, and she didn't recognize the bed. It seemed that this place was just like the place where she lived in Qingyuan.
She stood up, took some clothes from the rack nearby and put them on. When she lit the fire folder, lit the candle inside, and saw the environment clearly, she suddenly realized that this was just her first time here. Forget it, how do you know where the fire is and where the candle is?
It was like, this place was a place she was familiar with and couldn't be more familiar with.
Gu Xiaowan felt strange, but after a quick glance, she felt calm.
Maybe she always felt that she was in the courtyard of Qingyuan. After all, the furnishings here were almost exactly the same as those in her house in Qingyuan.
After the candles were lit in the room, Aya's voice came from outside: "Girl, are you up? Are you going to eat?"
Gu Xiaowan went out and saw Aya waiting for her with a lantern. Gu Xiaowan nodded: "Okay, please lead the way."
Aya led the way with a lantern, and when they arrived at a simply furnished room, Aya hung the lantern on the concierge, and then led Gu Xiaowan in.
There is a round table in the room, and several round stools placed under the round table. There were several dishes on the table, some meat and some vegetarian. Gu Xiaowan looked at it and felt a little hungry.
During these days, in order to find the ghost old man, they worked non-stop and did not dare to rest. Now that the person has been found, the tension and worry are gone at this moment. Instead, they are tired after relaxing. Gu Xiaowan did not sit down, Aya asked. She sat down: "Girl, sit down and eat quickly..."
"Aren't you waiting for the village chief?" Gu Xiaowan said, this is someone else's home after all, and there is no rule that the guests will eat first if the host does not serve the table.
Aya smiled and said: "Girls don't have to wait for grandpa. I brought grandpa to his room to eat!"
Gu Xiaowan nodded and sat down as instructed. Start eating. She drank a bowl of soup first, and after finishing it, she started to eat.
She was enjoying her meal, but suddenly she found a burning gaze falling on her body. That gaze came from the opposite side, that is Aya.
Gu Xiaowan raised her head suddenly, and saw that Aya had no time to look away, and her eyes collided with hers. She suddenly became shy as if someone had caught her in the act.
The child's gaze cannot be faked, she clearly saw inquiry and doubt.
She glanced at Aya. He had already lowered his head to eat and never looked up again. Gu Xiaowan knew in her heart that she, a stranger, had broken into someone else's home, and it was such a dangerous place. She had to explore more. It should be obvious.
She calmly finished her meal and then returned to her room.
She had already slept for a long time in the afternoon, and she was not in the mood to sleep anymore, so she could only read in the room.
She had basically read all the books on the back of the bookshelf, so she picked up a random one to pass the time.
As soon as I sat down on the beautiful agarwood couch, I heard a shrill scream coming from outside. Gu Xiaowan stood up immediately and was about to rush outside.
Who knew that when he just ran to the door, Gui Lao also came out, followed by Aya: "Girl, go back first. The people here who can come to the Mountain of Regret are all people who are in great suffering in this world." , everyone has their own worries and unspeakable secrets, use the dark night to release your emotions, don’t be afraid!”
By the way, when I came back last time, I heard that the people here are the poor people in this world. They finally got here and got rid of the disputes and pain in the outside world. However, the trauma left in my heart was not It can be cured in one or two days.
After that shrill cry, there was unbridled crying and laughing. Gui Lao shook his head and took Aya back. Before leaving, he did not forget to remind Gu Xiaowan: "Girl, it's cold outside. Go back and rest early."
Gu Xiaowan nodded: "I'm tired of you!"
Those old but still shrewd eyes glanced around Gu Xiaowan's body, which made Gu Xiaowan extremely uncomfortable, but she could also feel that the old man had no hostility towards her.
On the contrary, she could feel that this old man was caring and taking care of her all the time.
After Gu Xiaowan returned to the room, she sat on the beauty's couch again and read a book. It took a while for the mournful crying and laughter outside to disappear. Then, there was the sound of sobbing, and finally nothing could be heard at the back.
After Gu Xiaowan flipped through a few pages of the book, she felt that she was still a little tired. She lay on the bed again, looked at the familiar furnishings in the room, and finally fell into a deep sleep.
Aya and Gui Lao left the garden. Aya looked up at him many times.
Master, he seemed to be hesitant to speak. When Gui Lao saw that he wanted to ask himself a question, he didn't say anything. He just walked forward. When they reached the fork, they separated. Aya had one sentence that made his head spin in his stomach. After a long time, I didn't ask.
The old ghost went straight back to his room, with the burning gaze lingering behind him. He understood clearly and knew what the child wanted to ask, but the time was not yet ripe and he didn't know how to answer.
Early the next morning, before dawn, Gu Xiaowan got up. After sleeping all night and all afternoon, my body is full, and now I feel full of energy.
