When I heard He Jianqiang yelling as if he had seen a ghost, my first reaction was that the guy in front of me might be a psychopath. Anyway, He Xiaoqiang also said that he was sick, but he didn't explain clearly what the disease was. Although.

I don’t deal with neurotics once or twice, and I don’t have any general treatment for them.

The kind of rejection and fear that people have, even the two best friends around me are a little abnormal now, but they still instinctively stopped and bent their bodies slightly, in case the person in front of me suddenly attacked me.

It's one thing to be attacked and not discriminate or fearful, but it's another thing not to be careful and guard against it.

He Xiaoqiang probably didn't expect that his father would suddenly become like this. He was obviously shocked, but he quickly reacted and hurriedly stepped forward to hug He Jianqiang's body. He turned to me and said, "You go out first."

, I’ll come find you later.”

I thought to myself that staying here was really not an option. Although I felt a little unhappy because I couldn't see the jade pendant right away, I also knew that I could only hide outside for now, so I turned around and walked out of the house. I heard someone behind me.

He Jianqiang shouted at the top of his lungs: "You actually came down! How could you come down from there?!"

I closed the door and waited outside for about ten minutes. He Xiaoqiang came out of the house with an apologetic look on his face and said, "I don't know what happened to my dad today. Although he gets sick occasionally, but

It’s never been like this.”

I waved my hand and said: "It's okay", and then asked impatiently: "Where is the jade pendant?"

He Xiaoqiang looked embarrassed and said: "The jade pendant is in my dad's room, but I definitely can't show it to you secretly like he is now. Why don't you find a hotel to stay outside first and wait until you have the chance?"

I'll contact you again."

My face immediately darkened, and He Xiaoqiang also saw my unhappiness and said hurriedly: "Originally, I wanted to keep you at my house for a night and then show you, but that's definitely not possible now."

I thought to myself that since I can see it at your house, why can't you take out the jade pendant and show it to me? But this was too direct. Seeing the apology on He Xiaoqiang's face, I couldn't say it out loud, so I had to agree to him.

, and said to call him after finding a hotel.

There happened to be a small hotel not far from the community. I randomly chose a room to stay in, and then sent the room number to He Xiaoqiang via text message. It was now around six o'clock in the afternoon, and I was lying in bed without feeling sleepy at all.

I wasn't even hungry, so my mind was filled with random thoughts, thinking that I was really destined to be a psychopath. They say birds of a feather flock together, so maybe I myself was also a psychopath in the eyes of others.

I was woken up by the ringing of my cell phone, and then I realized that I had fallen asleep without knowing it. I didn’t know what time it was. I picked up the phone while muttering. It was He Xiaoqiang’s number. I came right away.

I regained my energy and hurriedly answered the call. An anxious voice came from the phone: "Come on, something happened to my dad!"

I was startled, and hurriedly put on my shoes and rushed out. When I went out, I found that it was already dark outside. Apart from the street lights, there were not many pedestrians on the road. It looked like it was midnight. I didn't have time to think too much, and ran out of breath.

He Xiaoqiang's home had the door open and he was standing at the door waiting for me. When he saw me, he hurriedly pulled my hand and said, "Come in quickly."

I was pulled into the room by him, and then I realized that although He Xiaoqiang was thin, his hands were extremely strong. He pulled me in so casually, and I was pulled in involuntarily by him.

I immediately became more vigilant. At this moment, there was a "bang" sound and the door behind me had been closed. I turned around and saw He Xiaoqiang leaning against the door with his eyes staring at me closely.

My heart sank, I tightened my hands and asked, "What happened to your dad?"

He Xiaoqiang stared into my eyes closely, and after a while, he said, "He ran away."

At this time, I had already seen that He Xiaoqiang must be weird. When his father ran away, he didn't chase him or call the police immediately, but notified me as a stranger. What's even more strange is that he was still so calm. It seems that this

It was really a trap set for me. Even though it was clumsy, I fell for it easily.

Thinking back to my speculation just now, maybe the person named He Xiaoqiang was fine at all. He was probably hiding in the room behind me at this time, ready to rush out and give me a try at any time. Thinking of He Xiaoqiang's hand strength just now, I

Helplessly giving up the idea of ​​resisting with force, he looked at him and said, "Tell me, what do you want?"

He Xiaoqiang looked like a wolf at this time, which was completely different from the first time I saw it. Although this wolf was not very strong, the skinny hungry wolf was the scariest thing. He kept staring at me closely and paying attention to me.

Every detail, after seeing me relax, he did not relax too. Instead, he took a step forward, looked into my eyes, and said: "What on earth is going on with those jade pendants?"

I said "Huh?", almost thinking that I heard wrong. You know, I originally wanted to ask him about the jade pendants, but now he was asking me the same question. I thought to myself, this guy

He must have read too many suspense novels and thought these jade pendants were some kind of treasure map. Just when he was thinking about how to explain to him, He Xiaoqiang said again: "My dad really ran away. I think it has nothing to do with these jade pendants."

You have to tell me all about it."

At this time, I knew that He Xiaoqiang was not seeking money or life, so I made up my mind first. And from what he said, it seemed that the jade pendant in his home was indeed a bit weird, otherwise he wouldn't think He Xiaoqiang was interested.

The abnormality would be related to the jade pendant, so I became even more curious about the jade pendant he was talking about, and asked: "No problem, but I think you'd better tell me what you know first." After looking at him, I

Added another sentence: "I will give you money."

I don’t know if it was because of my last words or because He Xiaoqiang was also worried about his father, so he quickly agreed to my proposal, and his aura also dropped, and he turned into the skinny little boy again.

Little boy, of course I don’t dare to look down on him now. I still remember his words so vividly that my hands still hurt.

He Xiaoqiang pointed casually and said: "Sit down." Then he sat down first. I saw that there was no place to sit around except an old chair. Anyway, now is not the time to care about this, so I sat down.

He came down and asked, "What happened to the jade pendant you mentioned? Where is it now?"

He Xiaoqiang was silent for a while, wondering if he was thinking about what to say. I didn't rush him. After a while, I heard him say, "The jade pendant is on my dad's body."

I thought to myself that since it's your dad, I must not be able to see it. I couldn't help but feel a little unhappy in my heart. Since it's his dad's body, it's definitely not easy to take action. So what else can you tell me to show me? This is not

What a lie!

He Xiaoqiang saw what I was thinking, shook his head and said, "Originally I was sure to show you the jade pendant, but I didn't expect that dad would react like this when he saw you. In the end, he even

I ran away, so I can only say sorry to you."

I said helplessly: "Okay, let's continue talking about the jade pendant."

He Xiaoqiang seemed to rarely communicate with others, so the stories he told were a bit unclear and mixed with some random things. After listening to them for a long time, I realized that they were nonsense that had nothing to do with the theme, so I spent almost all the time.

It took me two hours to finally understand and sort out what he said.

According to him, he accidentally discovered a jade pendant hidden on his father's body. He was still young at the time and didn't take it seriously, but he had the impression that his father was reluctant to let him have access to it.

He saw this jade pendant and even scolded him for it. Originally, He Xiaoqiang thought that maybe He Xiaoqiang would not touch this piece of jade again after scolding him, but he forgot that children's curiosity is the strongest.

, his unintentional act actually aroused his son's greater imaginative interest, and when he had the opportunity

He tried every means to touch the jade pendant, but for some unknown reason, although He Jianqiang strongly opposed his son touching the jade pendant, he never refused to hide it, but kept hanging it close to his body, so

He Xiaoqiang always had the opportunity to peek at this jade pendant that was very mysterious to him, and after being discovered and beaten and scolded several times by his father, he gradually mastered better methods, so that He Xiaoqiang did not know it at all later.

In fact, the son can easily touch the jade pendant hidden on his body.

But after looking at it several times, He Xiaoqiang discovered that it was just an ordinary jade pendant. Although a child's curiosity is strong, it is always difficult to last. It is already rare for him to be like this now. Just when he was about to look at it for the last time.

When I gave up once, I found that the jade pendant turned red.

When I heard this, I immediately remembered the story in "The Old House" and couldn't help but ask: "Has anyone died in your family?"

This question was really impolite, and I felt something was wrong as soon as it came out of my mouth, so I hurriedly apologized to him, but I still looked at him eagerly, hoping to get an answer from him.

He Xiaoqiang looked at me with wide eyes: "Will someone die?"

I felt relieved. It seemed that no one died in his family, but then I felt a sense of loss. Since the jade pendant turns red and no one will die, what is the meaning of this storyline in "The Old House"? I originally thought that I had died.

I slowly escaped from the hypnotic world of that story, but now I find that there are always various unknown people and things in places that I can't see that are inextricably related to me, such as this jade pendant.

I didn't answer He Xiaoqiang's question directly. I just shook my head and said, "I'll tell you later. Now let's continue telling your story."

Everything that happened next was very ordinary, there was nothing special about it, but it seemed that He Qiangqiang started to become a little abnormal from that end, and he always liked to talk nonsense. When I heard what He Xiaoqiang said, I immediately felt

He became interested in the nonsense He Jianqiang said and asked: "What did your father say?"

He Xiaoqiang said: "His words were very strange. He kept repeating the same sentence: 'You will not come down from there, and you will not take me away'."

I immediately remembered what He Jianqiang said to me when I first met him. I vaguely felt that these words were not that simple, but now I have too little information to analyze. But I am curious about this jade pendant.

He was indeed getting stronger and stronger, and even interrupted He Xiaoqiang's story that he was about to continue telling, and asked: "Where did this jade pendant come from?"
