The weather is gloomy, the sun is obscured by clouds, but there are no signs of rain. 。The weather in late spring is pleasant and comfortable. 。 This is a small village in Qingyuan Town. People live and work in peace and contentment here, having resided here for over a hundred years. 。Dozens of households live in the village, with houses clustered together. It's very lively on a normal day. 。Looking out, it is a vast expanse of fields, the scenery is very pleasant. 。However, such a tranquil afternoon was anything but peaceful for the Mu family in the southwestern corner of Qingshui Town. 。Mu Fan drifted aimlessly for what felt like an eternity, unaware of how long he had been floating or where he had ended up. 。Wasn't he pushed from the 13th floor of the inpatient department by those radical relatives? He clearly remembered the immense shock as he fell to the ground. How did he end up in this strange place when he woke up? Where is this? Looking down, the ground was a distance away. After reacting, he realized he was floating in mid-air in some inconceivable way, which really scared him. 。 Mu Fan grew up with modern, advanced science education and never believed in supernatural stories. 。But the truth speaks louder than words. Falling from a height of thirteen floors should have been impossible to survive, yet I am not only alive but floating in this extraordinary way. 。In such a case, besides the abhorrent explanations of ghosts and demons, there is no other way to explain it. 。Isn't this the legendary ghost? That word flashed in my mind. I glanced at the sky, it was heavy and there wasn't a single... 。This kind of weather is indeed suitable for something like me to be around. 。I lowered my head to look at my own hands, hanging in mid-air. They were clearly shaped like hands, but... 。He stared blankly for a while, and suddenly an overwhelming sense of sadness surged within him. He thought to himself, "After years of studying medicine and practicing for over a decade, I dedicated myself to learning, but in the end, this is where I find myself. Ironically, I've ended up like the 'ghost' I once considered absurd." 。Could this be fate?For the first time in his life, Mu Fan believed in destiny. 。Just as I was thinking, a crisp voice suddenly came from under my feet: "Give me some more money, when I win the money back, I'll go to see a doctor for my sister." 。Mu Fan moved suspiciously in the direction of the voice, and saw a boy thirteen or fourteen years old pushing open the door of a room. 。Mùfán only then reacted, no wonder he had always felt something strange just now. Now, looking at these people's attire, they seemed like those from ancient times. 。Is this...a movie shoot? Turning his head to look around, however, before he could find the filming equipment, another voice came from inside: "I knew you'd gamble. Look at you, you have no sense of home. Do you know how sick your sister is?!" "She suddenly got sick this morning and has been burning with fever for several hours! This money was meant to buy medicine to save her life. You dare to take it away again!" Mu Fan felt curious and couldn't help but drift over to see what was going on. 。It was a house, simple to the extreme. Through the window, you could see the furnishings of one room inside. 。A wooden bed, a set of table and chairs, nothing else. 。Inside, a younger child lay on the wooden bed, while the two who had just been talking stood in the doorway of the kitchen. 。She, who was called by that name, an elderly woman now, kept her hands behind her back, a look of defeat on her face, yet her eyes darted about. 。The child guessed it at once. 。Smiling, I leaned in and said, "Well, since you and Grandpa are older and might find it inconvenient to walk, how about I go get the medicine for you?" 。As soon as the woman had relaxed her vigilance a little, the child suddenly jumped forward and snatched the purse away before running off. 。“Mu Fan, stop right there!” Mu Fan was startled. The woman was looking in the direction of the child. Logically speaking, she shouldn't be able to see him. But how did she manage to call out his name so accurately? Before he could figure out what was going on, the child had already run out of the house, shaking the purse in his hand and grinning mischievously: “You old fool, this little bit of money can't buy anything! Medicinal herbs are so expensive these days. I'll wait until I win some money back and get my sister a good doctor.” 。"You little wretch! That silver was your sister's life savings, you can't gamble it away again! Come back here! Mu Fan! Mu Fan!"That maid who was pretending to be Mu Fan laughed mischievously and quickly ran away, "Don't worry, sister won't die in a short while, I'll win the money back soon!"Is this human language? Even Mu Fan floating in the air couldn't help but feel anger. 。The incident happened all of a sudden. 。The old woman chased for a few steps, and suddenly covered her chest and fainted. 。At this moment, an elderly man rushed out from behind the house, as if he had just come back from picking vegetables in the backyard. Upon seeing the scene, his face changed drastically. He dropped the vegetable basket in his hand and ran a few steps forward, anxiously saying, "Wife, wife, what's wrong with you!" The old woman was in excruciating pain, clutching her chest, her face twisted in agony. 。Mu Fan's heart skipped a beat, this was...a heart attack? He instinctively wanted to step forward to help, although he floated in front of them and reached out, his hand passed right through the old woman's. 。Yes, how could I forget, I'm just a ghost right now. 。A heart, from eagerness to helplessness, finally turns into deep sorrow. 。The old woman clutched her chest tightly, pointing towards the direction where the child had run, and said with great difficulty: "Silver... Lanlan's money for treatment, Little Fan took it... Quick... Chase after him..."An unbelievable expression appeared on the old man's face. He glanced into the distance, but the child had already disappeared. 。At that moment, the old woman suddenly paused, her gaze fixed on the direction where the child had run. With a final, resentful gulp, she breathed her last. 。"Wife!" The old man's cry was heartbreaking, like every farewell he had seen in the hospital before. 。Mu Fan felt a surge of emotion in his heart, and then he heard the old man's angry voice roar towards the direction where the child had disappeared: "Mu Fan!" Unfortunately, the same child who was doing Mu Fan's actions didn't hear it. 。Mu Fan, floating in the air, frowned and drifted towards the direction where the child with the same name was running. 。The village led outside, with a winding path. 。Mu Fan chased after the shadow, all the way until it was about to leave the village before he finally caught up. 。Even if you catch up, it's naturally useless. 。She watched as the young girl, full of excitement, hid her purse in her mouth and entered a gambling den after a winding path. 。Mu Fan's eyebrows furrowed. 。This little girl is too disrespectful. 。Helplessly, I could only follow along. 。(The End) |
