Chapter 24: The Death of the Adoptive Father

It turns out that breathing air is also a happy thing, walking in the primeval forest, Pique recalls the picture of walking out of the cave tremblingly, and the timber wolf and the wolf king, everything is like a dream.

All things have spirits, but only donkeys!

Peake is now so angry that after coming out of the cave, he finds Big Blackfoot and plans to return to the town of Peace.

On the way, he rarely saw a few apricot trees, he took a branch to beat the apricots, and after beating the apricots to the ground, he was ready to pick them up and eat them, who knew that the big black feet did not give him any left!

He knocked down an apricot, and the big black foot ate one underneath, and knocked down one, and ate one.

Peake knew that Big Blackfoot had been waiting outside the cave for a day and a night, and he was fortunate to have ignored it at first, but you couldn't give me none left!

Peake looked at the apricot kernels all over the ground and wanted to cry without tears.

Descending south along the creek, there was no danger on the way.

Even though Big Black Foot ate a bunch of apricots, it didn't look like it was full, and Peake couldn't bear to ride it, so he walked on two legs for several hours, and finally walked under the Endless Wall, searched for it, and found the hole, and soon, through the hole, they returned to the south of the Great Wall.

Beneath the Endless Wall, they are two ants-like beings.

Before, with the Timberwolves running wildly, running for a long time, if you go back, at least it will be dark in Heping Town.

So he had to find something to fill his stomach first, and Peake fumbled around his body to find a piece of golden snake tail, and he planned to return to Peace Town to sell the snake tail, of course, provided that the townspeople of Peace Town knew the goods.

It is worth mentioning that he also brought back the knight's spear that he pulled from the wolf king's body, which was tied to the body of the big black foot at this time, these two knight spears are really valuable things, but I don't know if the sale of knight's spears will be arrested by the Holy See, no matter how much, there is nothing wrong with taking them home and collecting them.

In addition to the golden incense snake tail and the knight's spear, he also had a packet of medicinal powder made of cloud grass and flower vine on his body, just in case he needed it, but of course he couldn't eat it.

He searched all over his body, and found that there was no stock at all, and now he was so hungry that his eyes were glazed and he was about to hallucinate.

After returning to the south of the Great Wall, he was so hungry that he could not maintain his physical stability, and began to stagger.

Pique realized that his body was about to run out and that he needed to rest.

He leaned against the corner of the wall tiredly, and in a trance, he heard a voice: "If you are tired, give me your body,"

Suddenly, Peake opened his tired eyes, and their pupils were blue.

"Don't you think about it!"

Pique came to his senses in an instant, and no matter what, he would not give his body to "him".

"You can finally hear me talking, right, you can suffocate me for the past few years, since you can hear me speak, it means that I can fight for my body at any time, okay, I admit, the decision you made just now was right, if you escaped in the cave at that time, it was indeed not the right choice. In Pique's mind, the voice kept echoing, "But, you know, without me, you wouldn't be alive now! Just like the golden snake I killed a few days ago, and that time at the bottom of the cliff, it was a mortal situation!"

"You still have the face to mention that time when you were at the bottom of the cliff! You could have saved my father at that time! If you didn't take away your body, I could have saved him!"

"Peake! You were too young at that time! You were already scared and fainted, and if you didn't go, you would die! It wasn't a simple misstep! Your adoptive father didn't die because he fell down a hill, it was premeditated!"

"What are you talking about?"

"Well, you're an adult, I'm not going to hide it from you, do you know what I noticed when I woke up? You were too young and heartbroken to notice a thing. ”

Pique recalls a scene ten years ago, when it was a golden afternoon, the light of dusk was shining all over the hills, and his father was calling his name in the setting sun: "Peake, Peake!"

It was the last time he saw his father, and his eyes moistened every time he thought about it.

"Are you reminiscing about your adoptive father?" in Pique's mind, "he" interrupted Pique's recollections.

"Don't call him adoptive father, he's my father!" Peake roared inwardly, "What the hell are you trying to say? What do you say I haven't noticed?"

"He" was silent for a moment, and said in Peake's mind: " I wasn't going to tell you, but our relationship is getting stiffer and stiffer, I hope through this incident you can really accept me, instead of resisting me all the time, I think you should know one thing, if I want to snatch the body, sometimes you have a hard time resisting, for example, you cut wood for a day, and you don't have the spirit at night, at that time I can easily take away the body, but I didn't do that, never, the last time was when your life was in danger, I forcibly took over the body, I said so much to let you know that I have no malice, as for why my soul is in your body, I don't know from beginning to end, occupy your body, and it is not my wish. ”

"I want to know about my father, you took over the body after I was unconscious that day, what happened next?" Peake realized that what "he" said next would be very important, and his tone softened slightly.

"You should remember the mountain that your father used to take you to, and if I remember correctly, the name of that mountain is Mount Doron. ”

"You mean the one on the other side of the river on the west side of the town of Peace?"

"Yes, there it is!"

There was a forest at the bottom of Mount Dolon, which until ten years ago was not private property, and Peake remembers that his father often took him to cut wood, and sometimes to play on Mount Dolon, behind the forest.

"That's where my father died, and the townspeople say it was because he stumbled and fell down the hill. ”

You may not have noticed that your father's injuries were not caused by falling down the hill at all, and when a person falls down a hill, he instinctively protects his head with his arms and hands, and there will inevitably be light or severe injuries on his hands and arms, while your father's hands and arms are clean!

Therefore, I deduced that he did not fall to death, and the most direct evidence is that he had strangulation marks on his neck!

I've looked around, and there's no vines or ropes or anything like that, which means the strangulation marks on your father's neck are man-made.

When you found him, I fainted with fright, and I woke up and gave your father half an hour of artificial respiration and cardiopulmonary resuscitation, well, you don't know the concept of artificial respiration and cardiopulmonary resuscitation, I just want to say that I really tried my best, but I still couldn't save him, he has been dead for a long time, at that time your father was covered in blood, and there were often wolves in the woods, so I had to go home and ask for help.

Now to tell you, I think you can now bear the truth of your father's death, I hope you can understand me and know that I have not done anything to hurt your father, so that I can help you and help you without reservation!"

"Is what you said true?" Peake couldn't believe it while feeling sad inside, "Then why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"You were only ten years old, so what's the use of telling you? What can you do? Do you want to take revenge? It doesn't do me any good that you're dead, and besides, I explained at the time that I had done everything I could to save your father, and you wouldn't listen. ”

"Why? Why?" Peake couldn't understand why someone had harmed his father, and a fire seemed to burn in his heart. "What else do you know?"

"After your father's death, the mountain was quickly turned into a private domain, and a manor was built on the mountain, and the owner of the manor was the town of Peace...... Mayor of the Town"
