The morning sunlight seemed to carry a hint of warmth, streaming into the room through the gap in the curtains and landing on Lin Xiaoxiao's face. She opened her hazy eyes, feeling the lingering fatigue from the previous night, her body still carrying a slight heaviness. She slowly got up, gently pulling back the curtains, gazing at the cityscape outside the window. The city was bustling with vitality and energy during the day, but in her heart, she felt a completely different sensation. The shadow of the Underworld still lingered in her mind, preventing her from fully immersing herself in this ordinary daily life.
Her phone vibrated, a message from Zhou Le: "Xiao Xiao, let's go to the café after class! 😄" Lin Xiaoxiao looked at the phone screen and replied with a smiling face emoji. But in her heart, she was contemplating whether to reveal some things about the Underworld to Zhou Le and Zhang Siyao. She knew that once she spoke up, she might drag them into this mysterious world that she herself had not fully understood yet.
In school, Lin Xiaoxiao's behavior caught the attention of Zhou Le and Zhang Siyao. Her gaze always seemed to be in the distance, as if her mind was elsewhere. Her smile also no longer appeared as natural as before, always carrying a hint of artificiality.
"Xiao Xiao, what's been going on with you lately? I always feel like you're absent-minded," Zhang Siyao asked with concern, furrowing her brow slightly.
Lin Xiaoxiao Gently shook her head, "It's nothing, maybe just a little tired." She forced a smile, but the confusion in her eyes couldn't be concealed.
Zhou Le Teased, "Did you stay up late reading comics again? You're such a comic fan."
Lin Xiaoxiao smiled and didn't answer. She understood in her heart that all these changes were related to the invisible agreement between her and Gu sha. She began to doubt whether she could bear the weight of this secret.
The afternoon sunlight spilled into the classroom. Lin Xiaoxiao sat by the window, absentmindedly drawing circles in her notebook. Her thoughts drifted once again to that mysterious corner of Underworld, where the calm and order contrasted sharply with the hustle and bustle of the human world.
She suddenly remembered Gu Sha's deep and calm gaze, the kind of gaze that seemed to see through everything. Lin Xiaoxiao felt an inexplicable feeling in her heart, both fear of the unknown and anticipation for this mysterious experience. Her life had undergone an irreversible change from that moment.
During the lunch break, the three of them walked into a small garden on the campus. Lin Xiaoxiao looked at the two of them, took a deep breath, and began to tell a "story."
"Do you know? It is said that in a corner of our city, there is an ancient building unknown to the public, where some special 'residents' live." Lin Xiaoxiao's tone carried a hint of mystery.
Zhou Le's eyes immediately lit up: "What kind of special 'residents'? Are you talking about ghosts?" His voice was full of curiosity.
Zhang Siyao frowned, "Xiao Xiao, have you been watching too many horror movies lately? Let's not talk nonsense about this kind of thing."
Lin Xiaoxiao smiled slightly, didn't give a direct answer, and just changed the subject, "Maybe, I just feel that in this city, there are many secrets we don't know about."
After the afternoon classes, Lin Xiaoxiao, Zhou Le, and Zhang Siyao went to the coffee shop together. In the relaxed atmosphere, Lin Xiaoxiao felt a bit more at ease. However, there was an inexplicable anxiety in her heart, as if something was about to happen.
In the evening, Lin Xiaoxiao received another message from Gu Sha, directing her to a new location. She quietly put on her black night clothes and left home.
She arrived at an old-style park, and the park appeared particularly quiet in the moonlight. Lin Xiaoxiao took out her spirit detector and began searching. Suddenly, the pointer on the spirit detector started spinning wildly, and a strong sensation rushed over her.
Next to an ancient swing, Lin Xiaoxiao saw a blurry figure. It was a boy wearing old-fashioned clothes, with a bewildered look in his eyes.
Lin Xiaoxiao slowly approached and said softly, "Hello, I am Lin Xiaoxiao. What are you doing here?"
The boy turned around, showing a surprised expression, "You... you can see me?"
Lin Xiaoxiao nodded: "I can. Tell me, why are you still staying here?"
The boy's expression turned sad: "I... I am waiting. I am waiting for my best friend. We made a plan to play together in this park, but he never came."
Lin Xiaoxiao felt a movement in her heart, and she understood the persistence of this soul. She comforted him softly, "Perhaps your friend has his difficulties, but he must also miss you very much. Would you like to go to a place with me? There, you can wait peacefully."
The boy hesitated for a moment, then nodded. Lin Xiaoxiao smiled and reached out her hand, ready to guide this lost soul.
Her heart is filled with deep sympathy and understanding. Every soul has its own story, and every story is worth being heard.
Lin Xiaoxiao left the park with the soul of the boy, heading into the unknown in the night. This was just one of the many nights as a messenger between two worlds, and each night is full of challenges.
At this moment, Lin Xiaoxiao felt an unprecedented sense of fulfillment. She was doing something important, guarding the harmony and order of this world. At the boundary of the Yin and Yang realms, she was an indispensable presence.
On the way out of the park, Lin Xiaoxiao was filled with deep thoughts. She realized that every soul's story is not just about their own past, but also a reminder to the living. These encountered souls were like a mirror, reflecting the emotions and bonds in human life that are often overlooked.
When Lin Xiaoxiao returned home, the sky was gradually turning white, and the dawn's light gently sprinkled on her face through the window. She felt physically and mentally exhausted, but the experiences of last night kept replaying in her mind, leaving her both surprised and confused. She lay quietly in bed, staring at the ceiling, pondering how to handle this unusual connection between herself and the Underworld.
As her thoughts drifted, her phone's vibration brought her back to reality. She picked up the phone and saw a message from Zhou Le: "Xiao Xiao, the 'story' you mentioned yesterday is really intriguing. Can you tell me more details? I'm super curious! 😄"
Lin Xiaoxiao looked at the phone screen, struggling in her heart. She knew Zhou Le was very curious, but she also knew that once the secret of Underworld was revealed, it might bring unnecessary trouble to them. She sighed softly and decided to avoid the issue. She replied, "That was just a little story I made up on the spot, nothing serious. Don't take it too seriously."
Zhou Le quickly replied, "Oh, I thought it was real! Your stories are always so interesting. Tell me another one next time! 😁"
Lin Xiaoxiao responded with a smiley face, but her mood was far from relaxed. She turned off her phone, lay down, closed her eyes, and tried to put aside these worries. However, involuntarily, she couldn't help but think of Gu sha's calm and profound gaze, as well as his composed voice.
Lin Xiaoxiao felt that she had been drawn into a world beyond imagination, a world full of unknowns and dangers, but at the same time, it had an indescribable allure. She understood in her heart that she could no longer return to her previous life. She had to face this new identity and all the challenges and responsibilities it brought.
On this quiet morning, Lin Xiaoxiao felt a hint of loneliness and helplessness. She hoped that someone would understand her, but she was afraid that these secrets would bring danger to the people she loved. She struggled in this conflict until the first ray of sunlight shone into the room, illuminating her face.
The next day, at school, Lin Xiaoxiao was occasionally distracted. She began to perceive the subtle changes around her more sensitively, as if she could feel the delicate fluctuations in the surrounding air. She began to suspect whether this was related to her identity as a messenger of the Yin and Yang realms.
After school, Lin Xiaoxiao decided to go to an old library in the city alone. She wanted to take this opportunity to look for some information about the supernatural and paranormal phenomena, hoping to better understand the world she was facing.
In a dark corner of the library, Lin Xiaoxiao found some ancient books, their covers covered in dust, showing that they had not been read for many years. She carefully turned the pages of these books, and the ancient words and pictures seemed to be telling ancient secrets.
As she was completely absorbed in her books, a cold voice sounded in her ear: "Little girl searching for answers, can you find what you're looking for?" Startled, she looked up but saw no one.
Lin Xiaoxiao felt a bit uneasy, but her curiosity drove her to continue seeking answers. She found some records in the book about ancient yin-yang masters and soul guides, which deepened her understanding of her own role.
Night falls, and Lin Xiaoxiao is preparing to leave the library. As she walks home, her mind is filled with various thoughts. She begins to realize that her connection with Gu Sha may be much deeper than she had imagined. She is not just a student, nor an ordinary human anymore. She has stepped into a new world, a world full of unknowns and mysteries.
Upon returning home, Lin Xiaoxiao is filled with doubts and confusion, but at the same time, there is an inexplicable excitement within her. Her life has undergone a tremendous change, and it all started from the moment she met Gu Sha.
