Chapter 61: Last Words
"Alas, my mother-in-law regrets it, she really shouldn't have attracted evil spirits, she knew this was the case, she should have cut herself off earlier. In this way, it will not harm those wandering spirits, and it will not affect Erya's hard-working child! ”
"Mother-in-law, it's not your fault, it's all for my ......"
Luo Qiaoyu shook her head, tears had blurred her vision, she wanted to take a good look at her mother-in-law who loved her since she was a child, and hugged her well, but unfortunately now it has become a luxury. Her hand ran through the body of the shrine maiden.
The witch mother-in-law raised her cloudy eyes and looked at this mountain forest, infinitely remorseful, but she didn't expect that the mountain forest she had guarded all her life was almost destroyed in her own hands.
"It's the mother-in-law who is too hasty to let the evil spirits take advantage of it." Her voice was filled with endless remorse.
"Mother-in-law...... Don't talk about it, take a break. ”
Luo Qiaoyu couldn't cry anymore, and strings of tears were like pearls with broken threads, dripping down from her delicate face, but she didn't wipe them.
"It's too late, let my mother-in-law finish first. Ahem...... "The shrine maiden struggled to get up, leaning her body against the trunk of the tree.
"Mother-in-law......" Luo Qiaoyu could only watch the witch mother-in-law, she couldn't do anything, she felt so helpless at this moment.
Luo Hongxuan was also moved by this scene, and he turned his head silently, unable to bear to look at it again.
"Child, don't cry, in the future, it will be you who will guard this mountain and forest, you have to atone for your mother-in-law and protect Luojia Village well, you know?"
"Okay, I promise my mother-in-law that I will definitely protect the mountains and forests, protect Luojia Village, and be a good witch!" Luo Qiaoyu nodded desperately.
"About the hidden village, you should know that this is the curse of the Luo family, for thousands of years, every generation of witches has inherited the heavy task of breaking the curse, but unfortunately it can't be broken until my generation, but the first generation of witches once predicted, breaking the curse is a thousand years later, it seems that it will appear in your generation, you have to take on this heavy responsibility."
Hidden Village refers to Wulin, the resting place of the souls of the people of Luojia Village, and is another village of Luojia Village. This is the true mission of the witch of Locke's Village.
"Okay, mother-in-law, I will definitely work hard!" Luo Qiaoyu nodded.
"That's good! Then the mother-in-law will leave with peace of mind! The shrine maiden finally finished her last words.
She looked at the teary-eyed Luo Qiaoyu with pity, her eyes were full of reluctance and attachment, was it too cruel to give her such a heavy responsibility? She's still so young, and she hasn't had time to grow up yet.
"No, mother-in-law, don't go, I don't want you to go!" Luo Qiaoyu panicked and cried loudly.
The witch mother-in-law raised her eyes and glanced at Luo Hongxuan, who had been standing silently on the side. This glance was full of pleading and pleading, begging him to take good care of Luo Qiaoyu and fulfill her unfulfilled wishes, all of which were silent.
Luo Hongxuan understood the meaning in her eyes, nodded slightly, and gave her a comforting look, there was an indescribable tacit understanding between them.
The witch mother-in-law looked at the black cat standing at Luo Hongxuan's feet again, the little black cat "meowed", winked at her, shed a line of tears in her green eyes, took two steps forward, and stopped at the feet of the phantom, as if she wanted to rub at her feet as if she wanted to be coquettish like before.
This is the master who has followed it for a hundred years, but died under its black karmic fire, is this another cruelty?
The witch mother smiled heartily and slowly disappeared into the mountain forest, and a string of blue points of light, like broken starlight, suddenly disintegrated and scattered to the ground, and then slowly rose and rose to the sky.
At this moment, the night sky, which was originally dark and dark, actually appeared bright. There was a crescent moon hanging high in the sky, and several stars blinked with crystal starlight, appearing in the blue sky, and the entire gloomy mountain forest suddenly brightened.
"Mother-in-law!" Luo Qiaoyu cried bitterly, knelt in front of the tree where the former witch disappeared, and wept silently, the little black cat walked slowly towards her, rubbed lightly at her feet, and comforted her wordlessly.
Luo Qiaoyu's heart flashed countless pictures, bit by bit, there were happiness and sadness, and more happiness. The shrine maiden has always taught her and nurtured her with all her heart.
When she was young, she was naughty, and often ran into the woods to play with the blue spirits, and she played all day, and her mother-in-law took her back and gave her a good beating. She always said that strict teachers make high apprentices, and she never tolerated because she was a girl.
But after the beating, the mother-in-law would heal her again, using her rough hands to apply medicine to her. No matter how naughty she is, there is always a way for her mother-in-law to cure her.
Studying witchcraft is a very boring thing, she is lively and active, always thinking of all kinds of lazy methods, but she will always be recognized by her mother-in-law.
Sometimes, after she finished her mother-in-law's homework, she would secretly run out of the forest, go to Luo Wantian and them to play, and then spend the whole day in the wild. The mother-in-law just turned a blind eye and gave her double the homework the next day.
She has been an orphan since she was a child, and her mother-in-law is her only relative, and her mother-in-law is a teacher to her and a person to be honored all her life. Now she is gone, the tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop, and the son wants to raise but the relatives are not there.
If we see each other often in life, we are already confused at that time. Her heart ached, as if the pillar she had always thought had suddenly collapsed, and her sky was dark. None of the qiē is a zài.
Luo Hongxuan glanced at the crying girl with pity and shook his head. I wanted to step forward to appease, but I felt that at this time, for her, every qiē language was pale and weak. What's more, I can say that I am the culprit who caused my mother-in-law's death.
Although he also understood that Luo Qiaoyu would not blame him, he was burdened with this responsibility and kindness. At this time, his mood was no better than Luo Qiaoyu, and the witch mother-in-law was also the one who watched him grow up.
For him, the shrine maiden was also a teacher and friend, and before he became an adult, he often came to the back mountain to ask his mother-in-law about magic problems. Although his mother-in-law did not explicitly accept him as an apprentice, she never knew everything about the problems of magic, and said everything.
For him, his mother-in-law is also a teacher, a relative-like being. Now the mother-in-law has dissipated here, which is the cause and effect. Her death made him feel guilty and responsible, and looking at Luo Qiaoyu's helpless appearance, he felt that his responsibility was even greater.
Maybe now Luo Qiaoyu just wants a calm space, Luo Hongxuan is no longer entangled, turns around and walks to his wife who fell to the ground, bends down and picks it up, looking at the pale face in his arms, infinite love and pity rise in his heart.
Thinking that I almost lost her tonight, I suddenly felt a kind of fear in my heart, and I felt an inexplicable heartache, and I couldn't help but hug the person in my arms.
"Xiaolei, it's okay, I'll take you home for my husband!" He leapt and sped away in the direction of his house.
