Chapter 63: Marry me, this mountain and this river are all yours.
I just can't allow others to covet my 'stuff'.
In Mo Xianye's eyes, I was just a 'thing', an item, the only antidote he used to relieve the poison.
It's me who takes myself too seriously.
I didn't want to make a noise or make a fuss, and suddenly I realized that I didn't have that position at all, and Mo Xianye could even directly ignore these little emotions of mine.
He just put his arm around me, and the two of them sat there quietly, I didn't know what he was thinking, and my mind was messed up.
Until Yunshuang broke in in a hurry, and as soon as he entered the door, he shouted: "Brother Mo, what is the trouble with this guy?" ”
I quickly bounced away from Mo Xianye's arms, a little unhappy with Yunshuang's words, but I didn't argue.
Mo Xianye was still sitting, but he adjusted his sitting posture slightly, and said to Yunshuang, "It's okay." ”
"It's okay, you're ......"
"It's okay now."
Yun Shuang still wanted to get to the bottom of it, Mo Xianye blocked it back with a word, Yun Shuang glared at me fiercely, I ignored her, I didn't want to worry about her, so I went directly into the bedroom and closed the door.
At the end of the day, mentally and physically tired, Yunshuang and Mo Xianye didn't know what to say outside, and after a while, I heard the sound of the door closing, and they left.
I lay on the bed staring at the top of the tent, inexplicably feeling that I had always been humble in terms of feelings.
Before, because of Master's deathbed entrustment, I always thought that I was going to follow Yun Sheng in my life, but later, by mistake, I had something to do with Mo Xianye, and now I fell in love with this man who was destined to have no result with me.
I'm so stupid.
The home is very stuffy, so stuffy that I feel out of breath, I searched on the Internet, and there is nothing special I want to visit.
Well, I admit that it's because I'm afraid of poverty, and I think it's expensive to go anywhere, and it's boring to be alone.
I'm more afraid of an accident in a place where there is no Mo Xianye.
After lying down for a while, seeing that it was getting dark and hungry, I got up and went to the kitchen, and when I saw the chicken soup that Mo Xian had boiled in the morning, my heart began to sour again.
Pick up the spoon and prepare to scoop it and taste it, bring the soup to your mouth, and throw the spoon back into the pot.
I don't know who I'm talking to, anyway, it's just that I don't like it everywhere, I have some money in my pocket, so I lock the door and go out, wander around the snack street, make a skewer, eat xiaolongbao, and order a cup of milk tea, and my mood is finally much better.
People live for a lifetime, only food can not be disappointed.
It was already completely dark, and on the evening of the 15th, the business people withdrew early, and there were not many pedestrians on the streets.
As soon as I walked back to the door of the store, when I took out the key to open the door, I suddenly heard footsteps behind me, and when I looked back, I was covered by a handkerchief, and I fainted before I struggled a few times.
……
When I woke up again, I was tied up, stuffed in my mouth, and lying in a big wooden barrel, which was dangling, and I was covered with flowers and smelled of flowers.
I looked up to the sky and could see the moonlight pouring down and the faint sound of water all around.
I was tied up and now floating on the water, and I don't know what the water is, whether it's a river or a lake or a river.
With my hands tied behind my back, I was numb, and I turned over hard, but because of the movement, I almost knocked over the big wooden barrel, and I was startled, but I didn't dare to move casually.
I was really nervous at the time, and I didn't understand why I was tied up, and looking back on this time, it seemed that I had offended quite a lot of people, and it was reasonable that someone wanted to harm me.
It's just that I don't want to die yet.
The big barrel floats very slowly and smoothly, not like in a big river, where there is no strong current.
I feel a little better, at least for the time being, my life is not in danger, but as time goes by, the night gets deeper and deeper, and the uncontrollable factors will increase.
As I was thinking about it, the big barrel suddenly turned around, and the sound of the water around me also increased, and I reacted in an instant, I must have encountered a whirlpool.
The big barrel spun faster and faster, and gradually water droplets splashed up and fell on my face, cold and silky.
I don't know how long it took, but my brain was dizzy, and I was ready to be sunk underwater, when something suddenly came out of the water, lay on the edge of the big barrel, and poured a piece of water on my face.
My eyes widened in fright, and I tried to look at the thing, only to see the face of a bewitching man.
The man's face is a little long, thin, hanging from the corners of his eyes, his mouth is slightly open, and the tongue in his mouth is a little slender, and the tip of his tongue is forked.
He looked at me excitedly, his eyes swept over my face, and then he looked into my heart, and his greedy eyes made me panic.
I whimpered, but I couldn't make much noise, and I watched him open his mouth, his tongue stretched out, as if it was going to eat me.
Suddenly, I realized what had happened to me.
Lu Zhao said before that what was suppressed under Building 14 of Splendid Homes was a snake spirit that had been cultivated for many years, and the building fell, and the snake spirit escaped, but Lu Zhao and they did not catch him.
And this guy in front of him has the habit of a snake in every move, could it be that the snake spirit has come to take revenge?
I was thinking about it this way, and over there, the guy had reached out and ripped off what was in my mouth, and with a little force, he loosened the rope from me.
I quickly struggled to get up, and the moment I sat up, I was stunned.
There is a vast body of water on all sides, there is no end in sight, it is not a small ditch or a small river at all, and the water flow is not so smooth, and the reason why I had that feeling of stability before was entirely because this snake spirit was controlling the big wooden barrel.
As my gaze slowly sank to the water around the barrel, I was shocked again, and although I couldn't really see it, I could still make out the snake body that was coiled together one after another, with phosphorus flakes the size of a wine bottle cap.
What kind of awesome character am I messing with?
The snake spirit had been guarding the large barrel, its head resting on the edge of the barrel, and had no intention of attacking me immediately.
I calmed down, tried to calm my emotions, and tried to speak, "Why are you kidnapping me?" ”
"Why?" He asked me, "Because I like you." ”
I'm full of black lines, why is it that a man confesses to me when he sees me recently, is it true that Gu Xiaoxiao said that I want to take peach blossom luck some time ago? It's just that this rotten peach blossom is deadly, what kind of sin have I created?
I smiled awkwardly, "I don't even seem to know you." ”
"It's okay, when we become relatives, there will be time to get to know each other." His voice was loud, and when he spoke, he had a slight hiss.
My brain felt like it was about to explode, and I subconsciously shook my head: "I...... I don't understand you, can you please send me ashore? ”
"Yes." As he spoke, he pointed to the mountains on the side, "Do you see this mountain and a river?" This is all my territory, and it will be your home in the future. ”
"I ......" I didn't dare to provoke him, I was afraid and anxious, "People and snakes have different paths, we can't be together." ”
"Why not?" He asked me rhetorically, "I have been cultivating for thousands of years, if I hadn't suffered a great calamity, maybe I would have ascended to immortal at this time, and if you marry me, it can be regarded as Gao Pan, and I don't dislike you." ”
I really can't communicate with him, this person is not in a hurry to speak, but it is sticky and greasy, so people can't guess his thoughts.
I paused, and couldn't help but ask him: "I'm a mortal, and I really can't climb high, so why do you fancy me?" ”
"Because ......," he swept over me with a smile, and said mysteriously, "you have your own value, marry me, and I will make you happy and carefree to live this life." ”
He spoke very gently, if it was a whisper between lovers, it would definitely move the other party, but standing in my place and savoring it, a chill suddenly came up from my heart.
How long is this life to live happily and carefree?
It feels like raising a pig, feeding it with good soup and water, and slaughtering it until the New Year, ending its life.
And now I am the pig waiting to be slaughtered.
I tried to change the subject: "The mountains have mountain gods, the rivers have river gods, you have been suppressed for so many years, and suddenly break into other people's territory, aren't you afraid?" ”
I have lived in Jiangcheng for more than 20 years, and I still know the general landform of Jiangcheng, this river should be Jiujiang, the mountain by the river, is the Kyushu Mountain that I was taken to by the paper car before, the side of Kyushu Mountain is densely buried with all graves, and this side is near the water, and the trees are luxuriant.
With such a large body of water, there must be something to manage, and it is a joke that this snake spirit is ashamed to say that this place belongs to him.
"This is my territory, the Splendid Homeland is just a tributary of the Jiujiang River, when I was five thousand years old, I survived the catastrophe and turned into a worm, was seriously injured, and stayed in the Splendid Homeland to cultivate, but I didn't expect to suffer last year, was suppressed for more than a year, fortunately I was freed last night, and returned to the main trunk of Jiujiang, this grievance, I will get it back sooner or later." He said indignantly.
I was even more puzzled: "Liberation? Didn't you get beaten and escaped? ”
"Huh?" It was as if he had heard some big joke, "Run? Why should I run away? ”
"Because you couldn't beat Lu Wuye's group, you bit the boss of the Splendid Home to death, and absconded in fear of crime." I said it truthfully.
When he heard this, his face instantly darkened, and then, the snake's tail slapped fiercely at the surface of the river, causing a large splash, and roared: "The world has eyes and no beads, but I repay my grievances with virtue, and I don't hurt anyone in the slightest, even if I have been suppressed for more than a year, I have not been angry with anyone, where does it come from to bite people to death?" Where did you come from to abscond in fear of sin? ”
I can really feel his anger, I can't pretend to be it, so why did Lu Zhao make up such words to lie to me?
Who the hell is lying to me? Whose words are true and whose words are false?
The snake spirit slowly calmed down, and said: "But these are not important, it is the greatest luck to meet you, I heard them call you Baili, right?" ”
I nodded in a trance, and he smiled, "That's nice." ”
"My name is Liu Yi, and I am the ninth in the family, after we get married, you can call me Brother Jiu or Jiulang."
He arranged everything by himself, and I shook my head: "I won't marry you, even if I die, I don't want to." ”
At this time, I don't know what to do, escape, this vast river, I can't escape from his palm, since I am still valuable to him, then I can only force each other to die.
He snorted and laughed again: "Death? How did you die? Diving? ”
"Bai Li, you're so stupid and cute."
As he spoke, he reached for my nose, and I ducked my head to avoid it, gritted my teeth, and plunged into the water from the other side.
I was a little watery, but after planting it, I didn't make any movement, let the river water pour into my mouth and lungs, and it was only a dozen seconds before and after, and I was fished into the big wooden barrel again, and I heard Liu Yi burst into a foul mouth: ", it's bloody, I like it." ”
The snake tail patted my back hard, and I coughed violently, spitting out river water one by one, and my lungs and throat were burning with pain.
"It's useless to be cheap, tonight, you must be my bride." He said firmly.
I held my breath and took advantage of him to let his guard down and rushed into the water again.
I'm not stupid, I know it's futile and hurts myself, but I have to show him my determination to be controlled by him.
In the short exchange, I could feel that he was not a flood beast, he should be a cultivator who followed the righteous path, and Lu Zhao and the others obviously deliberately smeared this snake spirit.
Speculate a little deeper, in fact, it is not difficult to speculate why Mo Xianye didn't save me when he looked at me so helplessly in Building 14 last night.
Because Mo Xianye knows who is good and who is evil, the real villain is the boss, and who is behind the boss?
Why did Lu Zhao lie? Why did you tell me the snake spirit bit the boss to death? Why did you tell me in a grand manner that the reason why you don't kill all the snake spirits is because the snake spirits do a lot of evil and will be punished by the catastrophe after all?
He did all this, in fact, to tell me that the matter of the splendid homeland was completely controlled by the snake spirit, and the snake spirit was the source of evil, but he never thought that this snake spirit would make a comeback and take me captive to the river.
When I was fished out of the water by the snake spirit again, and when I lay on the edge of the barrel and spit water, I was actually crying, and my tears were mixed with the river water, and they fell straight down.
It's not just because I'm choking on water continuously, but also because of this moment, I recognize some facts.
Lu Zhao and Lu Wuye are not good things, they have been deceiving me and luring me to go in the wrong direction, and Yun Sheng is in the company of such a group of people, he ...... How good can it be?
Mo Xianye's temper is very stinky, it's hard for you to get him to explain some of his actions, he will only tell you, I won't hurt you, but I won't tell you, because I know that the snake spirit won't harm your life, so I didn't make a move, but when you are really in danger, I must be behind you.
I don't know why, but I suddenly remembered the scene of Mo Xian making chicken soup in the kitchen with an apron around this morning, and the more I thought about it, the more fierce the tears became.
Liu Yi looked at me crying silently, and was a little anxious: "What are you crying about?" You jumped on your own, not me who pushed you down. ”
"I'm so annoyed that you're crying, the auspicious time is almost here, and I don't want to marry a crying bride."
"Don't cry, I won't be soft-hearted, it's useless to cry."
Liu Yi chattered, a little at a loss, and seemed to have no experience in coaxing girls.
At this time, a layer of fog suddenly rose on the river.
The fog rose very suddenly, almost instantly even the Kyushu Mountains could not be seen clearly, I was stunned for a moment, and then, I saw a red lantern lit up in the white fog, the red lantern was hung on the head of the four dragon boats, the four dragon boats from the south, east, west, and four directions towards our side, faintly, there was a joyful sound sounded.
Liu Yi became excited: "Don't cry, the auspicious time has come." ”
As he spoke, the four dragon boats stopped, and a red sedan chair was set up on the dragon boat due east, and a long wooden board was lowered from the direction of the sedan chair, which was directly connected to the edge of the barrel.
Liu Yi urged me to stand up and take me to the plank, but I tugged at the edge of the barrel with both hands, but refused to relax.
"Liu Yi, I warn you not to force me, if my man knows that you are plotting against me, he will make you unable to eat and walk around." I yelled at Liu Yi, trembling in my heart, and took Mo Xianye with a hard mouth to deter Liu Yi.
Liu Yi was stunned for a moment, and then said indifferently: "I don't care about this, who was your previous man and how powerful he was, it has nothing to do with me, I just want you to be dedicated to me in the future, it's enough." ”
"You're dreaming!" "You said that you have been practicing for more than 5,000 years, is it all false that you have accumulated merit for such a long time?" All that you have done to me now will be punished by God. ”
"You're wrong, Bai Li, with you, God won't punish me." Liu Yi said a little frantically, and the snake tail circled around my waist.
At that moment, a large wave suddenly rolled up on the river, which provoked several dragon boats to almost roll over on its side, Liu Yi's face changed, but before he could react, the next moment, a long black tail instantly wrapped around his neck.
I was stunned, looking at the fluffy tail, and didn't react for a moment.
Liu Yi changed back into his real body, and the black snake body kept curling, but he couldn't escape from the tail.
Immediately after, I heard a familiar voice roaring: "Xiao Jiu, you dare to touch my people, are you tired of it?" ”
The words fell, the black tail disappeared, Liu Yi's snake body fell into the river, the dragon boat quickly withdrew, the white mist on the river dissipated, and I stood alone in the barrel, dazed.
Everywhere I looked, there was nothing, and I looked around, but I didn't see the person.
"Are you looking for me?" He was hugged around his waist, and the man's low sigh sounded in his ears.
My nose was sore, and tears were falling again.
It felt like I was going to shed all my tears that night, and I couldn't stop crying.
Mo Xianye hugged me and didn't speak, waiting for me to cry enough, and his emotions slowly calmed down, and then he said again: "Do you know that you are afraid?" ”
"Do you know how many pairs of eyes are staring at you out there? You won't live for a few days without me. ”
"Don't say it, Mo Xianye, you're no different from them." I sobbed and said, "You're just using me, what do you like about me?" ”
Mo Xianye sighed, and stroked my hair with a hand: "Some things are not chosen by yourself, I dare not say that I am a good person, but Bai Li, among a bunch of bad people, I am definitely the one who is most capable of protecting you." ”
He was telling the truth, he was different from Lu Wuye after all.
One made me understand the cruelty of reality from the beginning, while the other spared no effort to coax me and did everything possible to maximize my role.
I understand that Mo Xianye is not my lover, but his glass of wine is the only one I can hold now.
"How much time do I have?" I buried my face in his heart and asked sullenly, "How long can you keep me?" ”
Mo Xianye was silent for a long time, and I laughed self-deprecatingly: "Less than two years, right?" ”
Yunshuang said that she had leaked her mouth before, she said that Mo Xianye still has less than two years, and I didn't understand it at that time, but now I vaguely understand.
Mo Xian's night hurdle needs my help to overcome, and he guards me, just waiting for that day to come.
Sure enough, everyone is a raccoon dog.
They are all on the opposite side of me.
They all put on a hypocritical face, stretched out an olive branch to me, patiently waiting for me to grow up, and when the moment they wanted, they would tear off their masks and reveal their ugly side.
"Don't think about it so much, let's go back first." Mo Xianye only said this sentence in the end, and then took me ashore and returned to the ancient street.
He hadn't left after I had taken a shower, and the two of them were lying on the bed, each with their own concerns.
In fact, some things are really not so sad when I think about it, and some problems that I have ignored come up.
"Do you know that Liu Yi?" I finally couldn't help but ask.
Mo Xianye nodded: "His ancestor and my ancestor are considered world friends, and I have no friendship with him himself." ”
"He's scared of you." I judged, "But he's a good guy." ”
"Not a bad guy." Mo Xianye turned his eyes to me, "As long as he doesn't covet you, you can come and go." ”
"Why do you have to get married?" I asked again.
Mo Xianye was silent, I was silent, and plucked up the courage to continue asking, "There must be that relationship, right?" ”
"Liu Yi met me in Pingshui, and if I was kidnapped, I would marry me, this behavior is incredible; Yun Sheng has protected me since I was a child, and Master entrusted me to him before he died, and he will marry me in the end, which is a matter of course. ”
"Don't tell me it's all a coincidence, there is no such coincidence in this world."
I sat up, reached out and grabbed Mo Xianye's face, and forcibly pointed his face at me, looking at each other, and for the first time I saw a hint of dodging in his eyes.
I was aggressive: "So, you'll marry me too, right?" ”
Mo Xianye pushed me away, got out of bed and was about to leave, I chased after him and blocked him, and asked without giving up: "Mo Xianye, you answer me, you want to marry me, right?" ”
