Chapter 13: Billy's Story
Probably didn't expect a big beautiful woman standing outside the door, but the woman's face turned red when she looked at Sylvia, "You-who are you looking for?" I don't know you at all, I mean, you're not Billy's old friends at all. "The woman's voice www.biquge.info is a little incoherent, but the meaning is still very clear.
"We just have something to ask Billy about." Sylvia said as she spoke, ignoring the double-barreled shotgun in the other party's hand, and walked straight in, the woman seemed to be a little nervous to step aside, and let Sylvia and Xing Tianyu walk into the room and look around.
"Billy wasn't at home, he went to work."
"Hmph, go to work? At this point, I don't think so, if he was out working, how could he not have driven away," Sylvia said, casting a detection spell, only to be surprised to find that there was no one else in the room at all.
"Hell, there's no one else in this room."
"I've said it a long time ago!" The woman said.
Sylvia looked the woman up and down, although she didn't want to admit it, but this woman was very bad, although she was also a woman, but Sylvia would feel a sense of being attracted, that kind of natural temptation, there was indeed a feeling of provoking crime.
However, this woman is not as confident as her appearance, but has a feeling of cowering and dodging.
This feeling made Sylvia feel a little weird, and Billy's absence made Sylvia lose patience, "Here you go!" She said to Xing Tianyu. Xing Tianyu sighed, sure enough, he still has to do it himself, saying that this Soul Eye feels a little too easy to use, and there is a feeling that he has opened a plug-in, saying that if he wants to do something bad, he will go directly to the United Nations General Assembly and stare at it, or run to the White House to stare at it, it is definitely an existence against the sky, or run to Hollywood to stare at it, it is estimated that it is not difficult to sleep in Hollywood, but he is still too kind, and he didn't even use the Soul Eye to do anything bad.
He thought in a divergent way as he walked up to the woman and went straight to the Soul Eye.
"Tell me, where is Billy?"
The woman's eyes were confused, "Billy is here." β
Xing Tianyu was surprised, he glanced at Sylvia, Sylvia shrugged innocently, "I really tested it just now, and there is indeed no one else." β
So where the hell is Billy? Xing Tianyu thought to himself, he didn't think that this woman could lie under the control of his Soul Eye, could it be that Billy was invisible? But even if he is invisible, it is impossible to escape Sylvia's detection, he looked up and down, and suddenly found a problem, in this house, there are no female features, no women's clothes, no women's cosmetics, coupled with the strange and twisted demeanor of the person in front of him, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, "I see, Billy is indeed here, to be exact, right in front of us." β
"You mean." Sylvia's eyes were full of incredulity as if she had discovered a new world, "This woman is Billy?" β
"I'm Billy." The woman said, shaking her head as if awakened by her own words, and looked at the two of them in some surprise, with a wry smile on her face.
After a few minutes, the effect of the Dementor Eye had completely faded, and the three of them sat on a broken couch, drinking beer while listening to the woman in front of them, or Billy, tell the truth of the matter.
"My life is very difficult, maybe you have heard, I can't find a girlfriend, my work has not improved, I often want to kill myself, otherwise there is only pain in living in this world, but I am not reconciled, I haven't even touched a woman, how can I die like this, although I often move some evil thoughts, when I see those young and beautiful women, when I see not so young and not so beautiful women, I will have an impulse, I want to run in front of them, If you want to pursue them, get them, and pay any price for it.
But I never had the courage to do bad things, my father was a brute, but my mother taught me some things about how to behave, and she used to tell me all kinds of stories when I was a child.
It was at this time that I heard that legend, which I had always listened to as a story when I was a child, and never took it seriously, but when people are cornered, they often have no choice but to believe in something that sounds ridiculous, just like a soldier on the battlefield is always more likely to become religious. β
So I decided to go into the forest to look for the ghost in the forest, I brought a lot of food like the protagonist in the story, I explored in the forest, day after day, for months, and finally I found the altar, which was said to be an altar, but in fact it was just a big rock, and many people thought that there would be a shrine or something, or some kind of supernatural terrain, but my mother told me in my story when I was a child, that the altar was a stone, and I found it.
Everything was in line with the details of the story, the stone was smooth and round, sitting in a clearing surrounded by trees, surrounded by daisies and crested dwarf doves, and I put every food on it, trying one by one, and finally found the right combination, bread and honey, and only when both things were placed on the altar at the same time, the ghost of the forest appeared. β
Hearing this, Xing Tianyu couldn't help but ask, "So you saw that ghost in the forest?" β
"That's right." There was a misty look in Billy's eyes, "It's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen." Sylvia rolled her eyes, (Are the most beautiful things of the year so worthless?) She muttered quietly.
Nabilly didn't hear her, and continued his description. "It was like a fairy in a fairy tale, all white and radiating a pure light, as if it were transparent, and the first time I saw her, I knew that it must be the legendary ghost of the forest, the goddess worshipped by the Indians."
"She ate the honey and bread I brought, and then I walked out of my hiding place, and it looked like a little human girl, but I knew it wasn't human, because no one had ever looked at me with that calm and gentle gaze, and I said. You ate my stuff', I wanted to scold her as planned, but I couldn't, I couldn't do it in the face of such a pure creature, I was ashamed of my meanness, but it said it was embarrassed to eat my stuff, and in return, it was willing to grant me a wish. β
Xing Tianyu interjected: "So you made a wish to become a woman?" β
"Of course not!" Billy glared at Xing Tianyu in annoyance. "I was hungry and thirsty, but in my heart I was still a man, a pure man, and I made a wish to have a woman, to be exact, a woman completely, because I was afraid that if I couldn't have a woman completely, this woman might run away, so I asked for that very clearly, and then I described the woman's appearance, very meticulously, and then I said, I want to have such a woman, and she will always be with me, Never leave me. β
"Then the ghost told me that it would grant my wish, and it said that I could go home, and that the woman I wanted would appear in front of me early tomorrow morning."
"I was so happy that I went home and fell asleep, and the next morning, when I looked to the side, I found nothing, and I was very disappointed, thinking that the ghost had deceived me, but when I went to the closet to get dressed, the woman appeared, and she was in the mirror, and I was stunned for a while before I realized that the woman was myself."
Billy smiled bitterly, "The ghost of the forest didn't lie to me, I do have an almost perfect woman, and she will never leave me." β
"Aren't you angry? Looks like it still fooled you in the end? β
"No, I'm not angry, it's a little hard to accept at first, but once I've gotten used to it, I think it's okay, it's not really what I want, but at least it's much better than what I used to be, and I'm not afraid to get close to women, because I'm a woman, and I think maybe I'll be able to pursue other women - if I have the chance."
Xing Tianyu and Sylvia glanced at each other, and the matter was almost certain, the ghost in the forest was the prayer elf, "Thank you very much for your story." "I think it's time to say goodbye." She hesitated, "What are your plans for the future?" β
"I don't know." Billy's face was a little confused, "I don't know anything but logging, but now this body, I can't do that kind of hard work at all, and I can't do it if I want to, and I don't dare to let others know about me, so I can only hide at home." β
Sylvia took a handful of bills from his pocket and counted five thousand dollars, "Take it, don't stay here, go to the big city, with your capital, it will never be difficult to find a job, or simply find someone to marryβif you can accept it, I guess there must be many people willing to marry you, like the baker." β
Billy was surprised when he heard this, looked at the banknotes in his hand, and stammered, "These are for me?" That's too much, right? β
"Think of it as a consulting fee."
"Thank you so much!" "I think I'm going to get out of here and go to Hollywood, or New York." β
Sylvia glanced at Xing Tianyu, and the two walked out and left Billy's house.
Walking outside, the two glanced at each other, and Xing Tianyu said, "Then it is basically certain that the ghost in the forest is indeed a prayer elf, and it seems that as the ancient summoner said, the prayer spirit will distort the wishes of humans." β
Sylvia nodded at him and smiled suddenly, "But even a distorted wish is still better than no wish, isn't it?" Billy at least doesn't look like he's thinking about suicide anymore. β
Xing Tianyu was a little disagreeing, "But... He sighed, he had already guessed why Sylvia was so obsessed with this wish, she wanted to resurrect her brother, although Xing Tianyu felt that it was a little unwise to do so, but he didn't know how to say the words of persuasion, "Let's find the prayer spirit first." β
