Hearing this, I also understood what Meng Xi said, and I couldn't help but ask him, "Who is the person you are talking about?" ”

"I don't know, I haven't met him, I don't know his name!"

A mysterious and unpredictable man whom Mengsy had never met knew my name and asked Mengsy to guide me to the bottom of the Great Lake.

So, will I know that person?

For a moment, we all pondered!

Xiao Jiu and Youfei's mental state is very poor, even if they don't believe what Meng Xi said, but when they listen to the dialogue between the two of us, they seem to know something.

In an instant, on the pale faces of the two of them, there was obvious fear and fear!

"Meng... Grandpa Meng, there is one thing I have always wanted to ask you, one year when I had a fever, it rained very hard that night, I remember that my mother braved the rain to ask you for medicine, and then I got better, but my mother made a mistake because of this, and often talked about seeing ghosts, Grandpa Meng, do you know this? ”

Meng Xi was stunned: "No, I've been thinking about how to talk to you about this matter, I know that you have always been a strong and capable child, and your father and sister are your spiritual support for you, forgive Grandpa Meng for not wanting to break the protection in your heart, so I haven't told you..."

"Grandpa Meng, you tell me that I will accept whatever the result, tell me, did anything happen to my mother?"

Saying this, he clenched his fists tightly and bit his lip.

He seemed to have vaguely guessed something, so he never dared to face it, and when he heard Meng Xi tell his past and identity, it couldn't help but make him pluck up the courage to bear his speculation!

"I'm sorry, but no, in fact, your mother was on the way to ask for medicine that night, because the ground slipped and tripped her head, hit the stone and died, your mother is really great, she asked for medicine for you, her soul went through a lot of hardships to find me, just for me to go to see you, and no, you are the child I watched grow up, I can't bear to be sad and sad, I possessed your mother's soul to the scarecrow, and used the secret method to transform the scarecrow into your mother's appearance!"

"But... But isn't the current mother good, how can she be... Scarecrow? ”

"I'm sorry, your mother will see the ghost because she sees herself in the mirror, and the mother you see now is actually just an empty soulful body, and the reason why your mother can still live like a normal person is just repeating her

The life experienced before death. ”

Instead of crying, after listening to Meng Xi's words, he cried extremely sadly!

Xiao Jiu was already sad, seeing his brother like this, he didn't know what to do, so he could only accompany and cry together!

It's not definitely the strongest big boy I've ever met, and he never says a word about the burdens and pressures of life.

Although this has created a stable character, it has also left an uncoverable scar in his heart!

I didn't try to comfort both of them, they both needed an outlet to ease their mental and inner meltdown.

Because there is still a long way to go, I can't help them anything, I just hope that in the future, they will still be strong and cheerful!

Letting go of the conjecture in my heart, I asked Meng Xi my last doubt with mixed feelings.

"Mengxi, I want to know, what's going on with the scarecrow hoeing the ground at night, and the girl who is the water grass, is she a real person?"

"Hehe, the scarecrow hoeing at night is true, how can I, an old man, have the energy to take care of a large field, but I just used a small spell to attach the wild ghosts of the world to the scarecrow, so as to work for me, but the old cow under the locust tree, hey, it has been with me for more than ten years, and now it will disappear with my death..."

Meng Xi sighed, for a long time, he seemed to have reached the limit of his essence, and his breathing gradually weakened.

After a while, he looked at me and said deeply: "You said one thing you promised me, but it still counts?" ”

"Hmm!"

"Good, good!"

A tear fell from the corner of Meng Xi's eyes, and he only heard him say in a deep voice: "That little girl of water grass is indeed not a real person, her real body is actually the water grass essence cultivated under the Lechuan River in the underworld!" ”

Meng Xi's words made the three of us stunned, a little stunned, only to hear Meng Xi tell us the origin like a memory!

It turned out that Meng Xi adopted aquatic plants ten years ago, and because of the problem of the big lake, the people of Zhuqing Village invited Meng Xi to the big lake to practice.

And in the process of doing this, Meng Xi accidentally found a clump of aquatic plants floating on the surface of the lake.

Because of the aquatic plants at that time, she had not yet reached the level of cultivating into an adult, but she already had her own spirit and consciousness, which made Meng Xi at that time surprised, thinking that the shipwreck in the Great Lake was this water grass acting as a demon from it, so Meng Xi didn't think about it at that time, and it was in his hands

The magic weapon is going to hit the girl.

But just as Meng Xi made a move, he heard the crying sound in his ears, it was the water weed!

The aquatic grass seemed to feel Meng Xi's killing intent, she was very scared, thinking that Meng Xi was going to hurt her, she looked at Meng Xi alone, as if she was begging Meng Xi for mercy.

At that moment, Meng Xi also seemed to see his sister's shadow on the aquatic grass, and for some reason, he suddenly relented and put down the magic weapon in his hand.

Meng Xi brought the clump of water grass back to his home, and after the water grass cultivated into a female doll, Meng Xi gave her a name, which was called Water Grass.

In addition, Meng Xi also introduced to the people of Zhuqing Village that Shuicao was his granddaughter from outside the market, and after that, Shuicao lived with Mengxi.

It is precisely because of the appearance of aquatic plants that he has been able to accompany Meng Xi for the past ten years and spend Meng Xi's worries and thoughts about his sister!

"If there are those in this world besides my sister that I can't let go, that is the aquatic weed, that poor girl, I want you to promise me to bring the aquatic grass to the place where you belong and treat her like a relative, have you ever done it!"

"I swear to you in my past and present lives..."

"Good! Good! It's enough to have your words, I believe you. ”

Meng Xi smiled at me and handed me a yellowed book, and when I took the book in confusion, at this time, Meng Xi's hand had already fallen, and his eyes were slowly closed!

"Grandpa, grandpa... Don't leave the weeds behind... Don't leave the weeds behind..."

Mizucao rushed in, and she hugged his grandfather's corpse tightly, and her cry made everyone outside the house hang their heads!

Meng Xi left, with his best wishes for Zhu Qingcun, and left everyone!

Meng Xi's body was buried that night, by the old man himself, under the locust tree outside the house.

The old cow under the locust tree seemed to know the owner's departure, and lay motionless in front of the grave.

I don't know if it's my delusion, I saw tears in the eyes of the old cow!

Everyone left silently, leaving Xiao Jiu and me to accompany the still sad girl.

This night, I couldn't sleep, all this happened so fast, so fast that I was caught off guard, and I even wondered, if I hadn't followed Meng Xi out of curiosity at that time, would I not have gone down to the Great Lake, and the series of things that followed would not have happened?
