Chapter 459: The taste is the same as chewing wax
"Really?" Qiao Keer looked down at the porcelain bowl at the head of the bed, and her eyes darkened. "Maybe it's just a nightmare......
"Grandpa, what do you mean by love?" The little guy raised his hand and scratched his head, asking with a puzzled expression.
"Little brat, you'll know when you grow up." The old man walked over and reached out and touched his head.
"Okay......"
"That's right, sister...... Send you something! The little one walked over to the wooden cabinet and mysteriously took out a paper bag.
"What is this?"
Qiao Keer opened the paper bag and was stunned for a moment when she saw the contents inside. Wrapped in the rough papyrus was a copper pendant with runes carved into it, which she recognized at a glance...... It's grandma's stuff!
"Little one, where did this pendant come from?" Qiao Keer grabbed his shoulders, obviously a little excited.
"Sister, you, you've hurt me......" The child frowned, frightened by her appearance.
"I'm sorry, I ...... I'm so excited, it's my grandma's stuff. Qiao Keer looked down at the copper pendant in her hand, very worried, and didn't know what happened to Lao Huai Village now.
"It was picked up in the mountains and I think it's beautiful...... I brought it back. The child looked up at her and asked puzzledly, "Sister, does your grandmother live in the mountains?" However, when my grandfather and I went up the mountain, we saw you, and there was no one else. ”
Qiao Keer was silent for a while and did not speak.
After a long time, she suddenly got up from the bed, put on her shoes and prepared to leave.
"Sister, where are you going?"
"No, I'm going back! I haven't found my grandmother yet, I have to hurry back......" Qiao Keer strode to the door, and the surroundings of the earthen house were all shrouded in thick fog, and he couldn't tell the direction at all.
There was a bamboo forest in front of her, and behind the earthen house was a treacherous and deep mountain, and she didn't know where to go.
"Sister, the fog in the mountains is too big, you can't get out." The little one rushed out and stopped her. "Grandpa said that when there is fog in the mountains, there will be terrible mountain spirits and wild monsters that will eat people."
"It's too dangerous, you can't get out now......"
"No, I'm really going back!" Qiao Keer held the copper pendant in her hand tightly, and she didn't know how her grandmother was now, was it safe? Did Master Lin find his grandmother?
Her head was a mess, and she couldn't rest assured.
"Grandpa, you're finally back!"
"Grandpa, hurry up and persuade my sister, she has to leave now......"
The old man walked up from the bluestone steps with a bamboo basket containing a few fresh vegetables and some wild fruits.
"The fog in the mountains is too thick to go out." The old man raised his hand and touched his beard, and said with a serious face: "Wait a little longer, the fog will soon dissipate."
"But, I ......"
"It's dangerous in the mountains, and if you get lost, you'll be in trouble. Girl, listen to my advice...... Don't worry. "The old man put the bamboo basket on the table and brought some firewood from the back of the earthen house to prepare a fire for cooking." Hungry, right? Eat some wild fruits to cushion your stomach first. ”
"Sister, you can taste it." The little one took out a wild fruit from the bamboo basket and handed it to her. "This fruit is sweet and sour, and it's delicious!"
Qiao Keer took the wild fruit and took a bite, like chewing wax. She had no appetite at all now, she couldn't sing anything, and her tongue seemed to be numb.
