Styx Doll (Six)

He Guang closed the door again, and Chen Mengze's eyes fell on the ground, "Perhaps, we have walked through the gates of hell again."

You Yi was frightened for a moment, but immediately put the feeling behind him. "What on earth have you been doing these past two days? You didn't answer my calls. If we didn't come, are you planning to die quietly?"

Chen Mengze has been classmates with him for a long time and has long been accustomed to the harshness of his words.

He briefly described his experience by the river, and at the end he said, "I don't know who saved me that day, it would have been nice if it was a wise man passing by."

But this hope was too slim, and when he recalled the voice that made him close his eyes, it sounded more like a child's voice.

"The boss's wife's children are also very strange."

The three of them thought about it for a while but still had no idea. He Guang's mind was even more blank. She looked at the two listless people and said, "Why don't you sleep for a while? Think about it after you have recovered your energy."

Youyi rolled his eyes, "How can you still sleep?"

He Guang glanced at the sky outside and said, "I'm not sleepy, but you guys look like you're about to faint."

You Yi looked at her and then at Chen Mengze, also very puzzled, "Why were both of us infected, but you were the only one who was fine?"

Moreover, after all this ordeal and shock, the other party didn't show any fear at all.

He Guang thought for a moment and answered seriously, "Maybe it's because I am full of righteousness in my heart."

Cruising, "..."

Chen Mengze couldn't help but smile, and then he heard He Guang say, "I'll play some soothing music for you later, and I guarantee that you'll be filled with righteousness like me."

He immediately remembered the other person's mysterious playlist in the library last time and couldn't help coughing again.

He Guang came over and helped him to the bed, "Alright, classmate Shen, just lie down for a while! It's good that you can wake up. I'll get you some medicine tomorrow."

Shen Mengze had not taken any medicine before. He knew that if he didn't solve the problem fundamentally, it would be useless even if he took Ganoderma lucidum.

After hearing what He Guang said, he just smiled gently and thanked him softly.

He Guang came over again and patted You Yi's shoulder, "Go to sleep, the bed is warm."

You Yi was helpless with her, so he just said nothing and lay down.

This time it was He Guang's turn to sit at the table, and the two boys knew that she wanted to keep watch all night.

They all had to admit that He Guang was indeed the best choice for night watch. She was determined and had sufficient fighting power. If there was any emergency, she could indeed control it.

It is not appropriate to think about a man's face at this time, but there is still a sense of frustration.

Chen Mengze was silent for a moment, and couldn't help but look up at He Guang. The other party lowered his head, looking at his palm, as if thinking about something.

He couldn't help but think of that night in the library. The girl was hesitant at the time, but she held on firmly to the end.

At that time, he was really glad that the three of them survived.

When they parted, he told He Guang to forget about that experience, but he knew it wasn't that easy.

But he thought that they would just be passers-by to each other, and He Guang would soon return to normal life.

But he didn't know if bad luck was contagious, and the other party was involved in the same dangers as him again and again.

Chen Mengze sighed softly. He remembered that when he passed by He Guang's desk to collect homework, the other's desk was piled high with books on metaphysics.

"Wa Guang, aren't you scared?"

Shen Mengze endured for a while, and finally couldn't help asking.

This girl accepted so easily everything that fate brought, accepting the dangers and confusions that ordinary people should not have to endure.

He Guang tilted his head and thought about it. This was indeed a very familiar question. The system audience had asked it before, his former partners had asked it before, and now Shen Mengze was asking it too.

"When you encounter danger or strange things, you will definitely panic and be scared at first."

He Guang stared into the void and thought of his distant hometown, "But you have to adapt quickly and then face it."

This is easier said than done.

The two boys who were awake in the room thought the same thing.

“My family dotes on children, but they never indulge us on some things.

I remember when my uncle first took me to the snowy mountains for training, he told me that the environment and the enemy would not accommodate you, and if you could not adapt, you would die.

Her voice sounded somewhat clear and pleasant, with her usual vitality, but her tone was gentle, like a good child who obediently repeated the teachings of her elders, without complaint or fear.

"What does your family do?"

You Yi listened for a while and finally couldn't help but turned over and sat up.

He Guang looked at him in surprise, "Youyi, you're still awake. You actually eavesdropped on our conversation?"

You Yi coughed uncomfortably, "It's been less than ten minutes. I'm not a pig. I can tell with my brain that I'm not asleep. Besides, you and him were so loud, why would I need to eavesdrop?"

"So you were listening openly?" He Guang said.

You Yi dropped his shoulders helplessly, but couldn't help being curious, "Aren't the He family also businessmen? Do they really need to send their young people to the snowy mountains for training? Even a military family wouldn't be so exaggerated, right?"

He Guang thought for a while, "Let's put it this way! The current He family is just a branch of our family, and the main branch is far away from here.

But my family has a lot of clan members, which is very common in my hometown. We are just a very ordinary family.

My hometown may be a little tougher than yours, but we all got through it this way. Besides, it’s inevitable to encounter danger when you go out, so it’s good to learn some skills.”

You Yi and Shen Mengze looked at each other and felt that He Guang's simple words contained a lot of information.

The Flower Country is vast and rich in resources, but I have never heard of raising children in such a tough way.

Or the He family is some hidden ancient martial arts family. This is not impossible. Although the He family is a large family, it has always been very low-key.

The two of them made wild guesses for a while, and felt that the horror movie atmosphere around them immediately dissipated, and they went straight to a martial arts movie without looking back.

They were not the only ones who thought so; viewers in another time and space were also guessing.

[The host is definitely the descendant of some ancient martial arts family]

[No wonder the anchor and campus literature are incompatible]

[If the anchor really has this setting, it would be quite exciting]

[Hey, you guys have such a rich imagination. Even if the host is from a gangster family, he is still more reliable than this.]

[Think about it carefully, this identity is also very handsome]

[Wake up, the anchor is so thick-skinned, could he be a gangster boss? ]

[As long as you are strong enough, personality is not a problem]

He Guang did not respond to the audience's guesses about her identity, but just said, "I know you must think I'm a little weird, and my other friends always say that I'm a little careless and never focus on the right things.

I couldn’t understand you at first, because you were too weak for me.”

You Yi wanted to close his eyes and go to sleep, but he couldn't help it. "It hurts my heart, my friend."

When she said that, You Yi thought back to the time when he was in a daze and didn't know how he was thrown to the ground like a sack.

So shameful!

“Hey, I didn’t mean to laugh at you for being weak… I’ve come to understand that people are different.

The living environment, the way of growth, the ideas, everything else is good.”

He Guang quickly explained, "I had a friend before... He didn't acknowledge me as his friend, but I kept clinging to him. He was a lot like you, he also took everything on himself and never said anything."

You Yi couldn't help but protest, "Please remove the word 'men'. If I have something to say, I won't hide it."

He Guang smiled and said, "I have been waiting for him, hoping that one day he would be willing to let me help him. Later, another friend of mine told me that people like him have been hurt a long time ago, so they are afraid of having, and even more afraid of losing, and most afraid of not being able to pay back what they owe to others."

Youyi faithfully fulfilled his duty of complaining, "Why do you have so many friends?"

Chen Mengze said nothing, as if he had fallen asleep.

He Guang added, "In fact, there is no enemy in this world that is invincible. Even if there is, it is only limited to our weakness. I have an idea, let's talk about it after we go back! Um... I said the previous sentence."

You Yi couldn't help laughing, "He Guang, I find you to be really interesting, more interesting than many people I've met before."

He Guang tilted his head to look at him, "You've told me many times that I allow you to be my friend. Be good and go to sleep!"

Cruising, "..."

"Anyway, I've said so much, do you understand? Classmate Shen, I am willing to wait for you forever."

Shen Mengze sighed softly, “I understand.

"So, no matter what trouble or danger you encounter, please think of me." He Guang's voice was low, and every word was clear. He added, "It will be painful for one person to bear everything, and it can't solve all problems."

"I know."

Chen Mengze opened his eyes. This was the second time he heard He Guang say this. He never doubted the sincerity in these words and was shocked every time he heard them.

Being friends with someone like Guang is enough to make people cherish and feel at ease.

Thinking of this, he whispered, "Thank you, but you..."

But you are my friend, and it is not your obligation to take risks for me.

You are also flesh and blood. Why should I drag you into my predicament?

This conversation sounds so familiar, just like how he treated Bai Yu in the past, and how He Guang treats him now.

But He Guang is much stronger than him.

Chen Mengze couldn't help but sigh when he thought of this. He still had to make some things clear to He Guang. If he didn't make it clear, it might really hurt her.

"He Guang, some things are not because I am too stubborn, but I feel that I am a person cursed by death."

He Guang turned to look at him, and Shen Mengze said quietly, "I have experienced many supernatural events since I was a child, but those were limited to me, what I saw and heard."

A strange ghost shadow, a banging sound under the basement floor that was clearly on the first floor, and a pet puppy that was staring at the corner and barking restlessly died suddenly the next day.

These caused him a lot of mental pressure, but it was nothing after he got used to it and overcame it.

"It was always just a minor fight that could be ignored until I was twelve years old. Then the world became extremely dangerous to me. I saw many ferocious ghosts."

"Of course you must be wondering why I don't ask some knowledgeable people to help me. That's because when something big happens, the expert who often helps me solve these problems is either out of town or blocked by other things."

Shen Mengze said softly, "I just found out that he had passed away two days ago."

The system concluded, "This is the evil intentions of the world at work. It will block all channels for the protagonists and supporting characters to get help from the outside world."

Kazuhiko nodded.

It was also the first time that You Yi heard Chen Mengze talk about these things, and he couldn't help but look thoughtful.

Chen Mengze took a deep breath and continued, "Some of my friends had similar experiences to mine. We went through a lot together. But later on, some of them died, and some disappeared. Some of them have bodies that I haven't found until now, but I know they are all dead."

The system sighed, "Poor male protagonist, his friend is the protagonist of the generation. He had a bad fate in the past because he was a supporting role, but now he has a bad fate because he is the protagonist."

He Guang also sighed, "Mr. Shen, I know you have done your best to fight against fate."

A trace of sympathy flashed in her eyes, and she quickly cheered up, "Although the things I experienced before are different from yours, they are all very dangerous in nature. You don't have to worry about getting in trouble with me. When fate comes, you can't hide from it, you have to take it."

You Yi chimed in, waving his hands lazily, "Besides, even if we want to run now, we probably can't. Consider what happened last time at the Twin Villas and this time. What does this prove? It proves that we are the same kind of people as you."

He Guang said, "You Yi, you are late. The last time in the library, Shen and I had already gone through hardships together."

You Yi said, "How could this happen? I was the first one to come here. Why is this happening?"

Chen Mengze was helpless. He was originally very sad and moved, but after You Yi's interference, he just felt tired.

“It’s okay.” He Guang chuckled twice. She patted her shoulder and said proudly, “Student You Yi, if you have any problems, I will help you stab you.”

"I'm willing to help you. Thank you." You Yi rolled his eyes at her. Although his words meant the same thing, there seemed to be a sense of differential treatment in them.

He Guang said, "Hey, I didn't pay attention to the time. I kept you guys chatting for a long time. Go to sleep!"

She urged the two of them, "You can think about problems only after you have rested well. I'm not smart, so I'll rely on you."

You Yi couldn't control his mouth again, "You and Nan Zhou are quite similar."

"Classmate Nanzhou?" He Guang didn't have much contact with this classmate, but he felt that he was a very good-tempered person.

You Yi's next words made her more determined in her previous idea.

“They’re all very self-aware.”

Fortunately, He Guang didn't have a bad temper. She stood up and turned off the lights, saying maliciously, "It's not easy to rest with the lights on. Don't be afraid, classmate You Yi, I'll play some music to give you courage."

You Yi resisted the urge to criticize her and said nothing.

Then He Guang put the phone next to his pillow, and he kept repeating the same thing over and over again all night: it was him, it was him, it was him, our friend, little Nezha.

When it was almost dawn, Youyi had another dream. He dreamed that He Guang was swinging a red silk cloth, or rather a Hun Tian Ling, and pressed him into the water and beat him violently.

Well, this dream is scary enough.
