Chapter 13: The Vampire Ring
Chen Xiaobai saw that he was fine, thought about it, and stuffed him with the rest of the money and food stamps in his hand. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
It's just that she felt that she wanted to help people, and this money was a little too much to handle, her face was a little red, and she whispered, "Uncle, I'm ...... I don't have any money now, so you can take these first, save some money, and at least eat a few days to eat. ”
After saying that, she looked at the old man again, and then turned to leave, when the old beggar stopped her.
"Girl, wait a minute. ”
Chen Xiaobai stood up and turned to look at him, "Uncle, is there anything else you need my help with?"
The old beggar shook his head, grinned, and showed a mouthful of teeth that had fallen out, "Old man, I'm so old, and I don't have much time to live, I don't care about life and death for a long time, people, sooner or later, I have to go through this step, but when I met you today, it can be regarded as fate, and the old man doesn't have anything on him, so I'll give this to you as a thank you gift." ”
As he spoke, the old man took out a black object from his bosom that was also indiscernible in material, but only looked like a ring.
How could Chen Xiaobai ask for it, so she shook her head and quickly refused, "Uncle, you're polite, I didn't do anything, it's just a gesture, no thanks." ”
She may have done too few good things, just like this time, she felt that it was worth doing a little bit of such a trivial thing, and she was remembered by people who were grateful to Dade, which made her very embarrassed.
But this old man is unusually stubborn, Chen Xiaobai didn't accept it, he stubbornly held the hand holding the ring, and he didn't take it back.
It's just that he didn't have much strength, and after lifting it for a while, his arms began to tremble, and he refused to take it back, Chen Xiaobai finally sighed, and had no choice but to put the ring away.
"Okay, thank you, uncle, I took it, is this a ring?"
The old man nodded, and said slowly in a slightly hoarse voice, "This is my family's heirloom, and now I have no family, and I can't pass it on, so it's better to give it to you, a destined person, and it can be regarded as finding a better home for it." ”
Oh well.
Is this ring, which looks like a piece of scrap metal, still a family heirloom?
Chen Xiaobai only felt that this family heirloom was really special enough.
But the old man was kind, and she was still very grateful, so she put the ring on her index finger immediately, and then said with a smile, "Uncle, don't worry, I will definitely treat it well." ”
The old man couldn't stop nodding, "That's good, that's good, okay, girl, don't worry about me as an old man, go, go." ”
Chen Xiaobai hesitated a little, but looking at the old man's resolute appearance, she didn't seem to care anymore, so she nodded, "Uncle, where is your home, or I'll send you back!"
When the old man heard this, he looked at the sky outside the cafeteria with a sad expression, and slowly spoke, "The world is so big, but there is no place for me." ”
After speaking, he suddenly smiled again, and turned his head to look at Chen Xiaobai, "Girl, you are a kind-hearted person, don't care about the old man and me, there are many people who are more pitiful than the old man now, at least I have enjoyed it, but the family is in the middle of the road, so I ended up in this field, don't worry about me, the old man has lived until now, it is enough, you and I will say goodbye! ”
Chen Xiaobai pursed his lips and didn't speak again, but used his talent to stare intently at the old man, hoping to see what his future holds.
But what discouraged her was that after she saw the future of this old man, the picture that appeared in her mind was gray, and no picture appeared.
Half-ringing, she realized that she couldn't see the future of this old man at all, why?!
Just when Chen Xiaobai was entangled, the old man had already stood up, waved his hand at Chen Xiaobai again and again, and motioned for her to leave, "Go, go back." ”
But Chen Xiaobai was still standing in place.
The old man shook his head helplessly, then turned around and slowly left here, Chen Xiaobai wanted to follow, at least send the old man away, but the old man turned his back to her and said, "You don't have to follow the old man and me, you should go your own way." ”
With that, he didn't look back, and left firmly.
Only Chen Xiaobai was left alone in a daze.
After returning to the guest house, Hu Lan still felt strange, and when she asked her why she had been gone for so long, Chen Xiaobai handed her the steamed buns sullenly, and then beckoned her to eat the steamed buns with some absent-mindedness.
Although Hu Lan felt strange, she saw that Chen Xiaobai didn't seem to have the desire to speak, so she didn't ask more, silently nibbled on a steamed bun and drank some hot water, then lay down again, and fell asleep after a while.
After Chen Xiaobai finished nibbling on another steamed bun, he sat in a daze, constantly looking at the black ring on his right index finger, and gently rubbing it on it with his thumb.
The material of this ring is really strange, a bit like the color of black iron, and the round and soft luster of stone, with a hint of jade transparency, but Chen Xiaobai looks at it, but he doesn't know what it is made of.
At first, she thought it was inconspicuous, but the more she looked at it, the more surprised she became, because the ring was so strange.
Staying in my hand, I didn't feel much at first, but gradually, the ring began to heat up slightly.
It heated very slowly, so that Chen Xiaobai felt that this temperature was baked by her own body temperature, but gradually the temperature of this ring exceeded her own body temperature, making her feel a trace of warmth.
This surprised her, could this ring actually heat up on its own? Is there some mechanism?
Thinking of this, she wanted to pull the ring off the index finger of her right hand, but the accident came suddenly, leaving her defenseless.
At the moment when she pulled off the ring, a small tip somehow appeared on the inner circle of the ring, and a not-so-deep bloody cut was made directly on her finger.
Hiss, Chen Xiaobai frowned painfully, how could there be a pointed head here? Why didn't you find it when you brought it just now?
Thinking like this, she couldn't help but pick up the ring, looked at it, and found that the blood beads from her wound were also stained with the ring.
It's just that...... The drop of blood grew smaller and smaller under her nose until it disappeared into the inner wall of the ring.
Is it actually gone? It is absolutely impossible for such an interruption to evaporate naturally, and this feeling is like a sponge absorbing water.
This ring can suck blood!
