The room is too big, which makes it feel too empty, and the key is that there are no lights on, it's pitch black. The clean moonlight outside shines through the large glass windows, and you can vaguely see the furnishings within ten meters. I sit cross-legged and begin tonight's prayer.
fasting, waiting, contemplating...
All of this seems to have become my norm now. I feel like I can't live without any of it.
About an hour has passed, and I'm becoming more and more awake, less and less sleepy. Strangely, my subconscious is guiding me, and I find myself on the second floor, entering Taliesin's bedroom.
I sat quietly at her dressing table, imagining the life experiences of the departed beauty. Was it true what they said, that she was mentally troubled and chose to jump from the upper floor? Even if her life wasn't so prosperous, it shouldn't have led to using death to solve it all. What secrets did she have, and what is Zhang Xiaobei always avoiding?
Slowly, I opened my eyes and, following the moonlight coming through the window, I suddenly looked up and saw a portrait, a sketch of Taliesin. With deep eyes, large eyes, curved eyebrows, full lips, and captivating curly hair, she seemed to be smiling at me. Suddenly, her brow furrowed, her expression turned fierce, her mouth opened, her eyes staring at me, as if she were cursing something, and she came at me fiercely... I screamed in panic, turned and fled from her bedroom, slamming the bedroom door shut! Leaning against the bedroom door, I took a long breath and couldn't calm down for a long time. Did I imagine it? Or did something happen?
What exactly caused me to have hallucinations? I want to turn around and go back in, but I'm afraid to look back. I'm also afraid of her terrifying appearance just now. It was really too scary. She seemed to be in a lot of pain, as if she wanted to tell me something! My thoughts are in chaos. What's wrong with me today? I tightly closed my eyes and began to pray to my Father God, telling him everything and asking for his help.
Just as I calmed down and quieted down, as I crossed a long stretch of wall, preparing to walk into another bedroom, I heard a strange sound. What kind of sound was it? It wasn't a human voice. What kind of sound was it? I can't describe what kind of sound it was, and where did the sound come from? I put my ear to the wall and listened, and suddenly the sound disappeared. The whole night felt like it was haunted. I quickly fled from there, ran downstairs, and prepared to spend the night on the sofa.
I didn't sleep the whole night, and just as dawn was breaking, I started feeling sleepy. Before I could sleep soundly, I was startled awake by Zhang Xiaobei.
He was like a madman, acting crazy and hysterically yelling at me, "What are you here for? What are you thinking! You and Taliesin, you women always ruin things for me and then drag me down! Isn't that right! Don't think that you came all this way to find me and I should be grateful to you. Let me tell you, I don't care about your life or death, you mean nothing to me. What do you want? Just leave me, don't be with someone like me!"
I was taken aback at that moment, not knowing what to say for a moment. It was the first time I had seen him like this, irrational as if he had smoked a lot. I didn't speak for a long time, quietly observing him.
"No, this is not right. How did we end up here? Who brought you here?" he muttered to himself, looking up at the clock. "We need to leave here quickly, or they will find this place, and that will be troublesome. Hurry!"
He spoke to me sternly, and I couldn't make head or tail of it. I hurriedly followed behind him and quickly left because I felt something was really wrong here. As I left, I made a point to note the location so I could find my way back next time.
It was just getting light, and everything was still asleep, only occasionally hearing a few train whistles. He held my hand and we ran and ran without stopping. We passed through a pile of ruins, and then another pile of ruins, as if we were far away from the city center. I really couldn't run anymore, so I let go of his hand and stopped. "What's going on?" I asked him in confusion.
"Don't ask for now. I'll tell you when we get there. Let's hurry up!"
"Where are you taking me in this desolate place? Do you often stay here?"
"If you keep talking, I really have to suspect that you were sent by God to harm me. When you come to my place, just listen to me and leave quickly! We're almost there!"
Maybe he sobered up, and at this moment, he behaved very normally, in stark contrast to yesterday. In short, I couldn't figure out what was wrong with him. Soon, what caught my eye was a small tent. Is he living in this makeshift tent in the wilderness? Why doesn't he live in a luxury mansion and instead come to a place like this? I continued to mutter in my heart, feeling a little puzzled.
"Now can you tell me why all this is happening?"
"I can't tell you now, but you should think carefully. Coming to seek refuge with me is not a wise choice. You can still leave now!"
"Once you're here, you never thought about leaving. If you want to leave, we'll leave together!"
"You said that yourself. I didn't force you. Since you're on my turf, you have to listen to me!"
When I was off guard, he tied my hands and feet. He just threw me a sentence, asking me to stay quiet and not cause any trouble, then he left.
His series of bizarre actions made me more wary of him, and more aware that there must be something else going on here. But where can I find a breakthrough? I must understand what is going on, I must save her, only I can save her, I must not let her go down the wrong path, I must not let her succumb to the devil's temptation and commit unforgivable sins.
I'm trying my best to break free from the shackles. I must escape from here because I know I won't get any answers from him, and even if there are answers, they will be lies.
I believe that there must be some unspeakable secrets hidden in the big house where he and Taliesin live, so that will be a good breakthrough point. Yes, that's the place.
