Chapter 1423 is full of suspicions
"Brother Mumu, are you lying to Sister Xiuxiu, Brother Shi, and Uncle and Auntie?"
When I came out of Xiuxiu's house, it was already dusk, and the night rose from all directions, enveloping the village in peace. But since Xiuxiu's family came out, Ah Run was a little absent-minded, and after kicking a small pebble for most of the day, he slowly raised his head and asked Lin Bai suspiciously, and his little face was full of suspicion.
"Is my acting skills so bad, that I didn't even deceive Xiao Arun?" Hearing Ah Run's words, Lin Bai was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look at Ah Run's nervous expression in surprise, and said slowly, "How did you see it?" ”
"It's just a feeling, it feels like what you said is different from what you think in your heart." Seeing that Lin Bai didn't mean to deceive himself, Ah Run put a smile on his little face again, but he was still quite puzzled: "Since Sister Xiuxiu's matter is not as simple as what Brother Mu Mu said, then why did you lie to Uncle and Aunt them?" ”
"I lied to them to reassure them and didn't want them to think about it. Xiuxiu's matter, there are too many incredible things in it, which they can't guess at all, and the more they know, the more frightened they will become, which will not do Xiuxiu any good for the improvement of her condition, so I will say this. Lin Bai chuckled and touched Ah Run's head, and said softly.
As Ah Run said, what Lin Bai said before at Xiuxiu's house was indeed half-true, more to comfort Xiuxiu and her family, not to let them know too much inside information, but also to protect them and not let them worry too much.
In fact, the pictures Xiuxiu saw, according to the memories that existed in Lin Bai's mind, could be said to have completely ruled out the possibility of nightmares and sleepwalking, no matter which of the two, it was impossible for Xiuxiu to have such a situation.
And the matter of hair Gu, how can it be as simple as he said. In nature, poisonous insects compete with each other, which is indeed a cause of Gu worms, but the hair Gu is to be guided by the hair of the Chinese sorcerer in order to be cultivated. If it was really just a trip to Xiuxiu to go up the mountain, and she could be contaminated with hair Gu, then wouldn't these 100,000 mountains be full of rampant Gu worms!
Among the words he said to comfort Xiuxiu's family, the only thing that was true was that Xiuxiu did come to the eldest aunt at the beginning, and a woman who was in menstruation would indeed have a situation similar to yin evil, and in this state, entering the ancestral ancestral hall and this yang place is indeed likely to collide, resulting in some abnormalities.
But Xiuxiu's situation is far from being as simple as he told them, and in Lin Bai's opinion, the reason why Xiuxiu encountered so many terrifying things, the culprit is probably because she happened to come to the eldest aunt that night.
In Lin Bai's opinion, it was because Xiuxiu came to the eldest aunt that night, and the aura on her body became more gloomy, so she attracted some existences, so she chose Xiuxiu to start and put a hair Gu on her body.
And that existence, in Lin Bai's mind, is very likely to be a sacrifice to his mother-in-law!
Previously, through Xiuxiu's description, he had basically determined that the picture Xiuxiu saw could not be an illusion caused by colliding with something in the ancestral tomb, but should be a real fact.
If what Xiuxiu saw is true, then the mother-in-law should indeed be dead! But the strange thing is that when there was a commotion before, the priest-in-law stood in front of everyone in a good manner, and she didn't look abnormal at all.
That makes things even weirder! And what makes Lin Bai even more incomprehensible is that if the mother-in-law is dead, then what is the matter with the 'mother-in-law' now? And what is the unspeakable reason why she is so deliberate to deal with a girl like Xiuxiu who has nothing abnormal at all?
But Lin Bai knew very well that although all the doubts pointed to the mother-in-law, he couldn't show it in front of Shi and Xiuxiu's parents at all. It's not that he doesn't believe in these people, but because through his memories of this period of time, Mother-in-law Zhu's status in the village is extremely high, and it can be said that she has a supreme position, and no one will distrust her!
This is a habit that has been cultivated over many years, and the respect for the mother-in-law has been engraved in the bones of these people. From the fact that the mother-in-law wanted to set fire to Xiuxiu that day, but no one objected, and even Xiuxiu's parents did not show any dissatisfaction with the mother-in-law afterwards, it can be seen that they have respect for the mother-in-law in their hearts.
If Lin Bai completely threw the mystery in front of these people who were accustomed to respecting the mother-in-law of Zhuxi, even if Lin Bai was the one who saved Xiuxiu's life, they probably wouldn't believe what Lin Bai said, and it was even very likely that they would suspect Lin Bai's intentions in turn, even if they secretly told these things to the mother-in-law, it was not impossible.
And Xiuxiu's parents have just experienced a great sorrow and joy, Xiuxiu's body is even more because of the toss of the hair Gu, the lack of essence and blood, if he doesn't comfort them now, but throws them so many mysteries, I'm afraid it will greatly increase their physical and mental burden, it's not impossible to say that under that kind of fear, it's not impossible for a family of three to fall ill.
And this kind of situation is obviously what Lin Bai doesn't want to see, otherwise, he wouldn't choose to save Xiuxiu.
So he can only make up an answer for them that can explain all this, so that they can let go of their worries and be able to face the next life better, so that they don't have so many burdens in their hearts.
And fortunately, although the people in the village revered ghosts and gods, they didn't know much about these things, and when Lin Bai was cleaning up the Gu worms before, he showed such an unbelievable method, which made them feel a lot more awe of Lin Bai in the dark. So although Lin Bai's previous explanation could be said to be full of loopholes, it would not make them doubt in their hearts.
However, what Lin Bai didn't expect was that the scene he worked so hard to play was not to deceive the meticulous Arun.
"Since you can see that I was lying to them, why didn't you just say it right now?" After being silent for a long time, Lin Bai turned his head to look at Arun's incomparably beautiful cheeks under the moonlight, and asked with a chuckle.
"Although I don't know what Brother Mu Mu is lying for, I know that you will definitely not harm Sister Xiuxiu, so I didn't say it." Ah Run smiled sweetly, but feeling the coolness of the night, and thinking about Xiuxiu's words before, he was still a little afraid to get closer to Lin Bai, and then looked at Lin Bai with some worry and said, "Then Sister Xiuxiu will have anything to do in the future?" ”
"Probably not." Seeing Ah Run's worried appearance, Lin Bai couldn't help but sigh in his heart for the kindness of this little girl, and after reaching out to hold Ah Run's little hand, he said with a narrow smile: "And I left the stone there, he is now bent on being with Xiuxiu, he must be extremely careful in taking care of it, even if he finds something wrong, he will definitely notify me as soon as possible." ”
"Brother Mumu, you are really calculating, counting every possibility, but in this way, the stone looks like he really wants to be grateful to you, giving him such a good opportunity to get close to Sister Xiuxiu." Hearing Lin Bai's words, Ah Run couldn't help but chuckle, and the laughter like a silver bell spread out in the night, which seemed extremely beautiful and innocent.
Although the laughter was beautiful, there was a trace of worry and shyness in the depths of Arun's dark jewel-like eyes.
What worries me is that these things that Brother Mu Mu said are too terrifying, if it really continues, will there be anything that will make Brother Mu Mu hurt again, and will it make Brother Mu Mu become the stupid Mu Mu he used to be!
Shyly, as soon as she mentioned the stone, she couldn't help but think of the question about the stone's 'good friend', and after such a long period of contact, Sister Xiuxiu and Brother Shi should be able to come together and become a good pair. And all of these made her can't help but start to imagine what kind of person she will be with her in the future, can she be as powerful as Brother Mumu?
"Arun, let me ask you something, who found out that Xiuxiu had entered the ancestral hall on the day she had an accident?" How did Lin Bai know the thoughts in the heart of this little girl, Ah Run, just thinking about these complicated doubts.
"I want to think about it......" After being awakened by Lin Bai's words, and then thinking of the things he was thinking about just now, Ah Run's cheeks suddenly turned red with shame, fortunately this was in the night, and it would not be noticed, so he settled down, frowned and thought for a long time, and said: "I heard them say, it seems that the mother-in-law of the priest found that Sister Xiuxiu had entered the ancestral hall." ”
"If it seems like that's the case, then these things should be inseparable." Lin Bai was speechless when he heard this, and after muttering for a long time, he muttered a sentence without a head, and then asked with a smile at Ah Run: "Ah Run, are you bold, do you dare to go around the ancestral hall with Brother Mu Mu to see what is going on in the ancestral hall?" ”
"Brother Mumu, you are too underestimated, I am bold, why don't you dare!" When Ah Run heard this, he was immediately a little unhappy, and felt that Lin Bai had underestimated her, and after replying with great toughness, he couldn't help but feel a little scared when he thought of what Xiuxiu said, and after looking around, he said, "Brother Mumu, I won't become what Sister Xiuxiu was like before, right?" And didn't you say before that we girls had better not go near the ancestral hall? ”
"Arun, you are too underestimated, with Brother Mumu by your side, what can happen to you!" Looking at this little girl and wanting to pretend to be bold, but she was afraid of wolves and tigers, Lin Bai learned from Ah Run's previous boasting tone, chuckled and teased, and continued: "What Brother Mu Mu said is not to approach under special circumstances, and with me by your side, what are you afraid of!" ”
"Brother Mu Mu is the most powerful, with you, you are not afraid of anything!" Hearing the pampering taste in Lin Bai's tone, that little bit of fear was also thrown out of the clouds, and Ah Run did not hesitate to say his beautiful words, and the sycophants slapped Lin Bai out of the clouds.
