Chapter Twenty-Five: The Mysterious Old Woman
Shu Nuo glanced at the tomb robber angrily, but he didn't stop it, after all, this man was still relatively familiar with Mochizuki Ancient Town, and if something unpredictable really happened, it would still be useful.
Walking and walking, I don't know how long it took to go around, Shen Yan gradually found that the environment he was in seemed to be getting more and more desolate, and the defense in his heart inadvertently deepened a lot, signaling everyone to stop, and gradually surrounded the old woman: "Say, where are you going to take us?!" ”
A strange fragrance hit, and Shen Yan suddenly felt a burst of ** coming from his whole body, and the next second his eyes were dark and he lost consciousness.
……
Shen Yan gradually regained consciousness, in a daze, Shen Yan felt that he was in a cave full of candles around him, at this time, his whole body was firmly tied to the stone bed, and beside his bedside, the old woman was facing a dressing mirror, lighting a few candles, and methodically combing her already full of white hair.
"Crazy, what are you doing, where is Xiao Yao? Let go of me! Shen Yan roared at the back.
"Acceptance, it's been so many years, since you left with that vixen, you haven't come back to see me for almost 5 years, this year you finally came back, I finally waited for you, why, didn't you like that vixen to be young and beautiful? Why, I scratched her face, but you still went with her? ”
"Crazy, you recognized the wrong person, let me go, I don't know what you're talking about!"
"Acceptance, after so many years, why haven't you changed at all, you are still as young as you were at the beginning, even younger than when you left me, in the past few years, it seems that you have been doing well, it seems that you have never missed me! So why are you back now! Come back to see my jokes! ”
"You ......"
"Hmph, do you know how ruthless you were at the beginning, in order to go with that slut, you directly pushed me to the ground, you actually killed our flesh and blood with your own hands so cruelly, and now that you are back, I must dig out your heart and see, see what your heart is made of, and see if there is any place for me in your heart!"
After saying all this, the old woman picked up the dagger that had been placed by the vanity mirror, and slowly approached the side of Shen Yan, who was completely unable to move at this time and could only be slaughtered.
……
"Mei'er, don't be like this, I'm the Cheng, I'm the real Cheng, I'm the one who hurts you the most, I'm sorry for you the most, and I'm the one you hate the most, now I'm back, I'm here, I'm really back."
Shen Yan thought that he would die at the hands of this madman, but just at the last moment, the voice of a slightly old man suddenly sounded in a certain corner, accompanied by the voice of a very nice child calling his mother.
The old woman who was called Mei'er was attracted by the voice, and gradually approached there, Shen Yan didn't know what was going on, and he didn't know what that Cheng looked like, he could only hear the conversation over there, it was very clear, but it was full of weirdness.
"Are you Cheng, are you really Cheng? Who is this child, is it a wild seed born to you and that fox spirit, you dare to bring him back, and dare to let him call me mother! ”
"Mei'er, this is your own child! You really don't remember, do you? Have you really forgotten what happened? ”
"I just remember that you eloped with that ugly woman who was disfigured by me, despite my pregnancy!"
"Mei'er, did you forget? At that time, I saw you scratch Xiaolin's face, and pushed you away in a hurry, I didn't know you were pregnant at that time, watching you fall to the ground, seeing the blood stains that slowly came out on the ground, and seeing that you fainted because of the pain, I was really worried about you, I sent you to the hospital as soon as possible! Your life was finally saved, and when you learned that your child was gone, and you didn't cry or make trouble, you were so stunned.
I already regretted it at the time, and vowed to leave Xiaolin and take good care of you, and that night, I wanted to make it clear to Xiaolin in the other hospital bed.
However, you suddenly broke in, and you didn't seem to know what you were doing at all, and you didn't respond when I called you, so you directly picked up the knife and slashed at me and Xiaolin. ”
"It can't be! No way! When pigs fly! But, but ...... As if it were true, why is this happening, why is this happening! ”
"Mei'er, you don't have to blame yourself, I really don't blame you at all, I know everything is my fault, it's good for me to die, I found our child, you see, it's him, you see how cute he is, he has been asking where my mother is, he has always wanted to recognize you, today I finally got my wish, I named the child, called Meicheng, is it good?"
"Nice, nice, my child, my baby!"
"Mom, I miss you so much, Dad misses you so much, it's okay for you to accompany us, Mei Cheng will always be bullied by children who play together without his mother."
"Okay, mom will go back with you, mom will go back with you."
……
Shen Yan, who didn't know what was going on at all, felt the silence around him that he hadn't seen for a long time, he didn't speak, just waited, waiting for something to come, and his sixth sense told him that everything that happened just now was definitely not the work of some ghost.
Although he has experienced many incredible and unexplainable things along the way from school, Shen Yan still doesn't believe that there are any ghosts in this world, but he believes in the theory that there is a corpse control technique, and he also believes that there are Gu techniques in Xiangxi, and even more believes in those head-lowering techniques and so on.
In addition, there are some ideas that deviate a little from the original scientism, that is, Shen Yan also believes that people have souls, and believes that some obsessions when they die will also have some soul magnetic fields, but this is only the spiritual magnetic field of human beings, and it has nothing to do with ghosts.
In the darkness, a little candlelight lit up slightly, and with a burst of clear and heavy footsteps, Shen Yan saw the cheeks of an old man covered with wrinkles and scars, and behind him, there was a small figure, and the face of that figure had a deep sadness that should not have been his age at all.
The old man didn't speak, but silently untied the rope that firmly bound Shen Yan, and Shen Yan followed them out of this strange place at the old man's signal.
Just in the middle of the exit, Shen Yan accidentally stepped on the old woman who fell under her feet at some point.
