The Tale of the Kraken

Chapter 76 The Nightmare
Zuo Yong's parents didn't show dissatisfaction with Yang Yang's going out and picking up another friend, on the contrary they were quite enthusiastic.

Especially when they knew from Zuo Yong that Hongxin had helped Yang Yang, their enthusiasm for him almost overshadowed their own son.

In their pure world view, saving people is a great virtue, and those who do such good things are naturally good people.Good people, of course you have to treat them well.

What's more, he was the benefactor who saved Yang Yang.

Although Yang Yang is not their child, they have heard their son talking about Yang Yang every day these years, knowing that his parents divorced, and he grew up with his uncle, and he is an obedient and sensible boy, so they naturally felt pity for him in their hearts.

Especially during these years when Zuo Yong was studying and working outside, Yang Yang took care of his errands when he was sick.

Therefore, at dinner that day, Zuo Yong's father said, let Hong Xin stay here for a few more days, treat it as his own home, and don't be restrained.Anyway, he was going back to work in the city, so it was best to stay until he walked with Yang Yang and the others, so that he would be taken care of on the way.

Yang Yang looked at the handsome and domineering Hongxin, recalled his taciturnity that night, and felt that he would not agree.What he didn't expect was that he actually agreed. Not only did he agree, but he also enthusiastically chatted with Zuo Yong's parents.

Yang Yang looked at Hong Xin with surprised eyes while eating, thinking, brother, you have been pierced by a human soul, right?
What about the taciturn and serious male god who was promised?Even the plot of the eight o'clock file is familiar.

After eating, at Zuo Yong's suggestion, several people divided into groups and played Fight the Landlord, saying it was to enhance understanding.

Yang Yang didn't want to play at first, but he didn't expect Yuan Mu to be the first to agree. Not only did he agree, but he even clamored to be with Hongxin.

In the end, Yang Yang and Zuo Yong accompanied Zuo's mother as a group, and the other three played Doudizhu in a group.This game lasted for several hours. When several people were tired and ready to go to bed, they looked at the time and it was already ten o'clock in the evening.

The room that Zuo's mother prepared for Hong Xin was next to Yang Yang and the others, and Yuan Mu still slept with Yang Yang just like last night.

Before going to sleep, Yang Yang thought of the red heart, and couldn't help asking: "Can you see the prototype of the red heart?"

"I can't see it, can't you see it?" Yuan Mu raised his eyebrows when he heard him ask, and asked back.

"I forgot." Yang Yang said, turned over and continued: "Then you can always tell if he is a monster or not?"

"I can't tell." Yuan Mu was silent for a while, shaking his head and said, "He has such a strong aura that I can't even tell if he is a demon."

"Even you can't tell?" Yang Yang raised his eyebrows, a little surprised.

Today he deliberately checked Cha Baize on his mobile phone, and found that Yuan Mu, who had always been by his side and looked like a high school student, turned out to have a lot of background.

He thought for a while, and then asked: "But the one that appeared that night could only be a monster, he should be."

"Not necessarily, if it's a mortal with a particularly strong inspiration, if he gets close, he can break the barrier." Yuan Mu said, yawned and said: "Sleep, I'm sleepy."

So Yang Yang nodded, took off his glasses, turned off the light, and lay down to sleep.Because of the trip to the lake in the early morning and the mountain road in the afternoon, he fell asleep very quickly and slept very deeply.

At two o'clock at night, the moon was hanging in the sky, and the whole village fell into a deep sleep.

Suddenly, a dog barking came from far away, which was particularly ear-piercing in this silent night. Yang Yang was startled by this barking dog, turned over and muttered in a daze: "Didn't Zuo Yong say that the people in the village Don't dogs ever bark?"

As if in response to Yang Yang's words, the dog stopped barking once, and the night regained the tranquility it should have.

He also slowly relaxed, and began to fall into a deep sleep again.But after a while, he vaguely felt that someone was walking in the room. Because he was so tired, he couldn't open his eyes at all, so he didn't care, and continued to sleep.

After an unknown amount of time, Yang Yang vaguely heard someone calling him. At first he thought it was Yuan Mu, so he frowned and said, "I won't go, you go by yourself."

I thought to myself, I haven't slept well for two days, he is just a mortal, he really needs sleep, okay?

His words seemed to have an effect, the voice stopped for a while, and just when he felt that Yuan Mu had given up, the voice sounded again, and it became more and more clear.

In the end, there were even a few jingling sounds mixed in with the calling, the sound was very crisp, a bit like a copper bell hanging on the eaves of a temple.

Yang Yang finally opened his sore eyes unbearably disturbed, then fumbled to put on his glasses, sat up from the bed, and said, "Don't let people sleep?"

However, after he finished speaking, he realized that the lights in the room were not on.So he fumbled to turn on the bedside lamp, and the warm yellow light filled the room in an instant. Yang Yang turned his head and found that Yuan Mu was sleeping soundly with his eyes closed.

Seeing this, Yang Yang rubbed his head in doubt, thinking that he might be too tired to dream, and was about to take off his glasses and turn off the lights to continue to sleep when he heard noises coming from the yard downstairs, but this time, it wasn't shouting. His name, but the sound of something falling to the ground.

So he got up, went to the window, looked down, and saw nothing.

At this moment Yang Yang had already started to wake up, he looked back at Yuan Mu who was sleeping, hesitated for a while, and shouted: "Yuan Mu, Yuan Mu?"

However, Yuan Mu was not awakened by his cry, instead turned over and continued to sleep.

Yang Yang sighed, and was about to walk over to push him to wake him up when he heard a scream from the yard. At this moment, he couldn't care less about waking up the sleeping Yuan Mu, so he turned around and ran to the door quickly. side, pushed open the door and rushed out.Because of the voice just now, Yang Yang recognized that it was none other than Zuo Yong.

However, after going downstairs to the yard, he found that Zuo Yong was not in the yard at all.

Yang Yang suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. Thinking of all the ghost stories he had heard, a gust of wind blew through him, and he felt chills all over his body.

At this moment, the sound of a bell and the voice calling his name came from outside the door again.

"Yang Yang...Yang Yang..." After careful identification, the voice was indeed Zuo Yong's.

Yang Yang instantly felt relieved, it turned out that it was not his hallucination just now, it was really Zuo Yong calling him.

After mocking himself for being really timid in his heart, Yang Yang followed the voice and walked to the wall, and said, "You don't sleep in the middle of the night, what are you calling at the door?"

"Open the door, I'm locked out." Zuo Yong said after being silent for a while.

Zuo Yong's voice was muffled, probably because of the courtyard wall, Yang Yang didn't care, just nodded and said: "Okay, I see, wait a moment, alas, your parents didn't lock the door Right? Do you want to wake them up?" Yang Yang asked as he walked towards the gate of the courtyard.

"There's no lock, so don't call them." Zuo Yong replied.

Yang Yang walked to the door, looked down, found the position of the lock, and was about to open the door. Just when he opened the lock and was about to open the door, a force behind him suddenly pushed him to the door.

Yang Yang's abdomen hit the door with a muffled sound, causing him to hiss in pain, and turned his head to see what was going on.I saw him standing behind him with a red heart and a black face, frowning and saying: "You don't sleep at night, what are you doing with the door?"

"What do you think?" Yang Yang became angry as soon as he heard it, he was bumped from behind in a good way, the pain was so painful that his tears were about to flow down, it was fine if he didn't apologize, but he still looked righteous, although he usually has a good temper, But it doesn't mean bullying.So he raised his eyebrows and said, "Didn't you hear someone calling outside?"

"You open the door when someone calls?" Hong Xin raised her eyebrows, and looked at Yang Yang with a look of "Are you mentally handicapped?"

Yang Yang rolled his eyes and said, "It was Zuo Yong who called for the door, so I came out to open it, okay?"

"Zuo Yong? Why did he stay up so late and go outside?" Hong Xin raised her eyebrows, and asked back, "Even if he went out, why did he ask you to open the door without the key?"

"You ask me, who am I asking?" Yang Yang replied impatiently, and was about to say something more, when he saw the light in Zuo Yong's room turned on, and then the door opened, and Zuo Yong rubbed his eyes and appeared at the door , Said: "What are you doing at the gate of the courtyard without sleeping at night? If you have anything to do, we will talk about it when you wake up tomorrow morning. Go to bed first... I'm sleepy... ah..."

After finishing speaking, he yawned, closed the door, turned off the lights and went to sleep.

Yang Yang's hairs stood on end in an instant!If Zuo Yong was the one who just came out of the room and urged him to go to sleep, who was the one who told him to open the door just now?And... how did the red heart happen to appear behind him, preventing him from opening the door?
Thinking of this, Yang Yang turned his head to look at Hong Xin with a terrified expression, only to find that the latter was also staring at him expressionlessly.

Yang Yang's heart tightened, thinking of Yuan Mu's analysis before, he glanced at his room on the second floor from the corner of his eye, and wailed in his heart: "Yuan Mu! Help! Come and help! Don't sleep! Do you want to sleep again?" If I sleep, I will die here tonight!"

However, Yuan Mu and him didn't seem to have a heartfelt connection, but Hongxin stared at him for a long time before saying: "Didn't you say that Zuo Yong asked you to open the door outside?"

"Hehe...Maybe, I heard it wrong?" Yang Yang chuckled, trying to find an excuse to confuse this matter.

He remembered what Yuan Mu said before going to bed, what if Hongxin is really just a mortal with particularly good inspiration?
Seeing what he said, Hong Xin didn't say anything, just nodded, and then the two went upstairs together, said good night to each other, and went into the room separately.After Yang Yang lay back on the bed again, he called Yuan Mu a few times, but the latter still didn't respond.

Yang Yang remembered what happened tonight, and couldn't fall asleep at all, so he kept his eyes open, and fell asleep in a daze until dawn.

After the meal, Yang Yang's face turned green when he heard it.

However, Hong Xin agreed happily, looked at Zuo Yong, and said with a smile: "Then I will bother you."

Yang Yang looked at this picture, and for some reason, his heart skipped a beat.I feel that this holiday, there must be no peaceful days.
