As the figure of Gu sha melted into the depths of the night, Lin Xiaoxiao felt the surrounding air seemed to freeze along with it. In this ancient graveyard, she was the only one left. Moonlight pierced through the clouds, casting a pale light on the gently swaying treetops and silent tombstones. This profound and desolate beauty left her feelings complex and difficult to express.
In her hand, she held that peculiar key, its metallic surface shimmering softly in the moonlight. This key not only unlocked the door to an unknown world for her, but also awakened a certain longing deep within her heart. Lin Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, her mind filled with both doubt and curiosity, as well as an uncontrollable excitement.
"If I really have a unique ability," she muttered to herself, "then maybe I can do something to help those lost souls find their way."
Lin Xiaoxiao looked up at the starry sky, and the late-night stars seemed to be winking at her, silently encouraging her. In her heart, courage gradually accumulated, as if driven by an invisible force. She knew that this path would not be smooth, and might even be filled with danger, but she also understood that this might be her mission.
She looked down at the key in her hand again, as if seeing the infinite possibilities behind it.
As she was immersed in her own thoughts, a black crack suddenly opened in front of her, and the figure of Gu sha appeared again, like a shadow emerging from the night.
"Lin Xiaoxiao," Gu sha's voice sounded particularly clear in the quiet night, "I have a proposal."
Lin Xiaoxiao looked up, her gaze meeting Gu sha's, and in those deep eyes seemed to hide stars and abysses.
"Your abilities," Gu sha continued, "can bridge the gap between the Yin and Yang realms. I propose you become my assistant and help me complete some tasks."
Lin Xiaoxiao widened her eyes in surprise. She hadn't expected Gu sha to make such a request. "Me? Why me? How can I help you?"
Gu sha Take a step forward, "Because you can see us, this ability is extremely rare among humans. You can help me find those souls that evade judgment and send them back to where they belong."
"But what does this mean? What do I need to do?" Lin Xiaoxiao's voice was filled with uncertainty and curiosity.
Gu sha explains: "You will be able to access knowledge of the Underworld, learning the skills to discern and guide souls. Of course, this won't be easy; you will face danger and may encounter unknown secrets."
Lin Xiaoxiao hesitated in her heart. This contract would undoubtedly lead her into a whole new world, a world full of unknowns and challenges. But deep inside her, the passion for adventure and the desire for the unknown made it impossible for her to refuse easily.
"I need time to consider," Lin Xiaoxiao finally said, "This is too sudden for me."
Gu sha nodded, "Of course, it's your choice. But don't take too long, the balance of the Yin and Yang realms cannot be lost."
After saying these words, Gu sha's figure disappeared into the darkness again, leaving Lin Xiaoxiao standing alone in the night breeze. The moonlit cemetery returned to its calm state, but for Lin Xiaoxiao, everything had changed.
She stood there for a long time, until the moon climbed to the highest point in the sky, then she turned and, with a heavy heart, set out on the road back home. This agreement, this decision, would change her life. And she was not yet ready to embrace this change.
It's late at night, and the world outside the cemetery continues its relentless rhythm. Lin Xiaoxiao's disappearance has cast a shadow over what should have been a joyful grave-robbing activity, and the anxiety of the teachers and students forms a stark contrast against the silent night sky.
As time ticks by, the teachers begin to organize the students into small teams to search for Lin Xiaoxiao's whereabouts in the woods and paths near the cemetery. Zhou Le and Zhang Siyao are both part of the search teams, their anxious eyes searching every possible hiding place in the darkness.
"Xiao Xiao Did she go to that old tree?" Zhang Siyao said as she walked, her flashlight moving constantly among the trees, trying to find Lin Xiaoxiao's figure.
"Let's split up and search. I'll go south, you go north," Zhou Le said, quickly running towards the depths of the forest.
Lin Xiaoxiao On the way home, she had no idea that she had become the subject of everyone's anxious search. Her inner struggle made her oblivious to the passage of time and the impact of her disappearance on others.
Her thoughts were interrupted by a sudden beam of a flashlight, a signal from the search team in the distance. She stopped in her tracks, feeling a twinge of guilt. She had left the team without telling anyone, and this made her realize the recklessness of her actions.
In the distance, the beams of flashlights shuttle through the darkness, and shouts echo back and forth. Lin Xiaoxiao knows she must hurry back to end the chaos caused by unconsciousness.
She quickens her pace, retracing the blurry path in her memory. Lin Xiaoxiao walks out of the cemetery gate and sees a group of people anxiously searching for her. Her appearance brings relief to everyone, but also prompts a barrage of questions.
"Xiao Xiao, where did you go? We've been looking for you so urgently," Zhou Le said breathlessly, his face filled with worry.
"I'm sorry, I just... zoned out," Lin Xiaoxiao said, lowering her head, unsure of how to explain her recent experience.
The teacher walked over and looked at her sternly, "Lin Xiaoxiao, your behavior is very dangerous. You should know how risky it is for someone to walk away in a place like this."
Lin Xiaoxiao nodded, feeling the care and responsibility from her teacher. She knew that her actions had worried everyone, and she needed to take responsibility for her behavior.
"I promise there won't be a next time," Lin Xiaoxiao said earnestly, a hint of determination flashing in her eyes.
Under the guidance of the teacher, the team finally returned to school safely. That night, Lin Xiaoxiao lay in bed, looking at the moon outside the window, her mind filled with thoughts. In the quiet night, Lin Xiaoxiao closed her eyes, and her thoughts gradually drifted into the dreamland.
Lin Xiaoxiao's dream is like a replica of another world, bizarre and surreal, as if her inner drama is projected onto a vast and boundless curtain. In the dream, she floats in a vague space, surrounded by hazy mist and distorted light and shadow.
In the dream, the figure of Gu sha appears again, but unlike the dignity and indifference in reality, there is a hint of confusion and seeking in his eyes. He stands on a gray wasteland, surrounded by countless elusive ghosts, circling around him, seemingly expressing their own regrets and pleas to him.
Gu sha reached out to Lin Xiaoxiao with a faint glow in his palm, as if it were the only guide. "Come, Xiao Xiao," his voice echoed in the dream, "help me guide these lost souls to their resting place."
Lin Xiaoxiao hesitated, her steps heavy in the dream as she walked on the desolate plain, each step causing a faint echo. She looked at the ghosts, each bearing a different expression - some sad, some angry, and some deeply longing. She could feel their emotions, crashing over her like waves, almost overwhelming her.
When she approached Gu sha, she could clearly see the light in his eyes - it was not just the calmness of a Judge, but also a gentle desire to help these souls. In the dream, Gu sha seemed to shed the hard shell and reveal another side.
Lin Xiaoxiao reached out and touched Gu sha's palm. At that moment, light burst forth, coloring everything around in bright hues. The spirits began to ascend one by one, turning into specks of light and flying towards the sky, eventually dissipating among the stars.
In her dream, Gu sha smiled at her, a smile filled with gratitude and affirmation. Then, he turned into a beam of light, guiding Lin Xiaoxiao through the mist of the dream, leading her to ascend into the starry sky.
When Lin Xiaoxiao woke up, she could still feel the warmth and radiance from the dream. She sat on the bed, lost in thought for a long time. That dream, the proposal, and Gu sha's gaze all made her decision even more resolute.
She knew that even though it was just a dream, it had given her a clear direction. She wanted to help those souls, she wanted to learn, she longed for adventure.
The horizon outside the window began to lighten, and the first rays of dawn streamed into the room. Lin Xiaoxiao stood up, determination shining in her eyes. She would accept Gu sha's proposal, she would become his assistant. She felt both nervous and excited about the upcoming unknown. This decision might completely change her life, but she was ready to embrace that change.
Because she believes that every soul deserves to be seen, and every story deserves to be heard. And she, Lin Xiaoxiao, will become the bridge that connects them.
