Chapter 286: Uncovering the Mystery of Life (3)
"Is this Dongling Mountain?"
On a summer-like afternoon, the mirror-like water reflects the silvery light, and the green willows and aspensus on the shore stand as if they are spiritually transformed, casting a cool shadow on the small river in front of them.
Grass, reeds, and red, white, and purple wildflowers were warmed by the sun hanging high in the sky, and the air was filled with a sweet and intoxicating scent.
"Ji Xiaofan, come here."
"Do what?"
I cautiously shrank back, and cautiously looked up at Xiao Yubai who was standing on the surface of the river, don't you want to push me into the river, right? I'm not stupid!
The warm sunlight was draped on the ground, and many delicate dust flew messily in the light, and there was no sound around, so quiet that it completely responded to the saying that Dongling Mountain is a retreat.
With such a good scene, I have to stay away from Xiao Yubai, the big demon, anyway, now that he has reached Dongling Mountain, he will not force me to leave.
"Ji Xiaofan!" At this time, Xiao Yubai's voice could already hear some anger slightly, "Come over to Benjun!" ”
I raised my feet and ran towards the faintly smoking houses in the distance, and on the old locust tree on the side of the road, I knew that I was screaming happily, and the voice was sometimes loud and sometimes small, strong and weak, as if I was tired, and it seemed that I was about to stop, but suddenly I was high-pitched.
So much so that Xiao Yubai's voice behind me at this time sounded much softer.
"Haha, why do you have to let me go? Why can't you come to me? ”
I turned around as I ran, Xiao Yubai's face had turned from blue to white, and it looked very scary.
"Ji Xiaofan, you stop for Benjun, don't force Benjun to do it!"
"Huh? I'm so scared! ”
In the warm sunlight, the river shimmered with the scales of honeysuckle flowers.
As I ran, the shadows on the soles of my feet slid round and round over the green on the ground, and the sun was shining in Dongling Mountain at this time, and the grass was fragrant and the leaves were green, as if they had just been wiped with a rag, fresh and translucent.
"Stop! Who are you! ”
Suddenly, a shrill child's voice rang out.
I was startled, paused, and looked for prestige, huh? I saw a seven or eight-year-old boy holding a wooden fork in his hand, glaring at me with a fierce face, "What about you!" Get your name in! ”
"Got you!"
There was a cold figure behind me, I turned my head in surprise, Xiao Yubai wrapped his hands around my waist, and wrapped around me tightly like a snake, "Run!" Aren't you capable? Why don't you keep running? ”
"Drink! I ask you! Where did you two come from, report your name! Otherwise, you're welcome! ”
Unexpectedly, that little boy was not very old, but his courage was not small, and he dared to question Xiao Yubai, a strong man who was many heads taller than him.
Admire, admire!
In other words, I don't have as much courage as him!
"Imp, can you give us something to eat? We've been lost in this forest for a long time. ”
Xiao Yubai rested his chin on my shoulder, glanced up at the little boy lightly, and even ignored the wooden fork that the boy had stretched out in front of us, and then explained to the little boy coldly.
"Who's that little ghost do you call? You're the little ghost! Your whole family is a little ghost! ”
The little boy slammed the fork on the ground, rushed over and kicked Xiao Yubai's calf hard when he raised his foot, the situation changed so quickly that before I could react, the little boy had already returned to the place, pulled up the wooden fork from the ground, and then turned his head to look at me, then looked at Xiao Yubai, and said with a proud face: "Since you are lost, then come with me." ”
What the?
Is this going to take us to his house?
I thought he would be very guarded at a young age, but a few simple lies could deceive him, alas, "Little ghost, will you take us home?" Didn't your mother teach you that you can't just take a stranger home? ”
There was not even a figure on the road, only the cicadas and frogs singing their songs somewhere, and the song was very monotonous, but they sang in unison, and they never got tired of singing.
Although the outline of the house can be seen in the distance, but if such a young child is so far away from home alone, are his parents really not worried?
Although there will be no outsiders here, after all, this is still a deep mountain, what if a few fierce beasts and poisonous snakes come out?
Alas, this family of parents is really ......
But when I met the child's parents, I didn't want to blame his parents for being irresponsible.
"Daddy, I'm back."
When Xiao Yubai and I came to a room filled with black gas, the little boy pushed the door and entered, while Xiao Yubai and I looked at each other, "This ......"
"Get out of the way, there's something wrong in this room!"
Xiao Yubai grabbed my arm from behind and dragged me aside, then frowned, "Damn! What the hell is it that can be so dead! ”
"You two come in! What do you do standing by the door? Didn't you say hungry? ”
The door opened widely, so that those dead qi seized the opportunity to bubble out one by one, and the little boy stood by the door innocently, pointing his little finger at me and Xiao Yubai.
I looked up at the little boy, no, this little boy was just an ordinary child, just now I was very sure that he didn't have the smell of death on him, but what was there in this room, and how could the little boy get in and out of this house unharmed?
"You two are from outside, aren't you?"
Suddenly, an old man's hoarse voice came from behind me, and I turned my head in fright, only to see an old man with gray hair and a slight bow on his back standing behind me with a pair of crutches, "For hundreds of years, it is the first time that an outsider has been able to find Dongling Mountain." ”
"Ahem!"
Then the old man coughed lightly, approached me, and struck the ground twice with his cane, knocking the ground with a bang, "Don't go in with that little ghost!" Otherwise, you two will be the food on the plate of that little ghost's parents! ”
"Dead old man! I found out about the two of them first! ”
Strange, this old man also has the breath of a living person, not like a ghost, but why do I just think that he speaks like a dead corpse that has been dead for hundreds of years?
"Ahh
As soon as I thought of this, I raised my eyes again, and his smile became more and more terrifying and distorted, and he turned around and threw himself towards Xiao Yubai, "Xiao Yubai, save me!" Why are there ghosts in your house everywhere! ”
"What nonsense! Didn't you just keep running? Why don't you run now? Go on? ”
Xiao Yu's white cold index finger pulled out the fingers that I was holding his arm one by one, "Benjun won't stop you, go quickly!" ”
"Old thing, you're trying to rob me!"
The little boy who was still standing by the door, I don't know how to move, in the blink of an eye, he fell in front of the old man on crutches, and his cute body was so bright that I couldn't help but want to laugh?
Even if the old man was on crutches, his body was still about one meter six or seven when he was a lot shorter, while the little boy was only one meter two or three bright.
Such a big difference in body brightness that made Xiao Tong's threatening words seem to hit cotton, full of strength, but it didn't work! (To be continued.) )
