Chapter 32: A Terrible Dream

"There's something I want to give back to you!" Xiaolian said as she took out a very small women's backpack from under the table, opened the zipper, took out something wrapped in red silk from it, and handed it over.

I looked at it strangely, it was a rectangular object, very thick, what could it be? Could it be a token of love she gave me?

"It should have belonged to you, but now that it belongs to its original owner, I will humble you and your master on behalf of my mother, I'm sorry!"

As soon as she said that, I could already guess what it was. I gently opened the red silk, and sure enough, it was a book, and on the yellowed cover was written four big characters "Tao Hangyi Thought". This is the immortal book that Master said? According to Master, if you read through this book, you can become an immortal, I don't really care about whether you become an immortal or not, in fact, I don't care, I just think that the realm of immortals is too far away from us mortals. But Master also said in the letter that there are ways to make me a normal person in this book, which is very important, and now I have to mask my face when I go out on the street without being a ghost, and that feeling of being looked at by the people around me with strange eyes is really bad.

At this moment, I was quite excited, looking at the book and speechless.

"I'm leaving!" Xiaolian suddenly said this coldly.

My heart sank, "Where are you going?" I asked anxiously.

"I'm sorry, I can't say. Good bye! With that, she picked up her backpack and got up and walked out the door, and I hurriedly followed out and shouted, "Wait! ”

She looked back at me.

"Do you really come here every Saturday?" I didn't ask this because I didn't believe her, maybe I just wanted to say a little more to her and look at her more.

She smiled and nodded. Then he quickly ran to the courtyard wall and jumped out of the wall.

I looked at her back, stood for a long time, I found that I really already liked her, this feeling seems to have started from the first sight of her, is this the legendary love at first sight? But she seems so mysterious, and she has a mother who doesn't know if it's a human or a monster. Alas, I sighed in my heart, how nice it would be if she were an ordinary girl!

Just now I noticed that there was a faint sadness in her expression, which made people feel pity. Alas, what secrets does she have?

I put away the book, blew out the candles, closed the door and went back to the house of Xuanqing Dao, when the sky was not yet bright, and the waning moon hung high in the sky, sprinkling a faint moonlight. I walked slowly through the poplar forest, and was not in a hurry to go back, when a fresh breeze blew and sobered me up a lot. Thinking back to what happened just now, it was like a dream, if I hadn't been holding the book that Xiaolian gave me in my hand, I would really have suspected that it was just a dream.

When I came to the door of Xuanqing Dao's house, the sky was already a little cloudy, and it was estimated that the time at this time was about four or five o'clock. At this time, suddenly a manic dog barked sounded, which startled me, it was the dog raised by the Xuanqing Dao family, Kuroko.

I realized that something was wrong, why didn't the dog bark when Xiaolian knocked on the door in the middle of the night? Well, Xiaolian is from this family, and it's understandable that the dog doesn't bark when she sees her, so why didn't I react when I went out? How does this explain? Could it be that the dog slept so dead that it didn't hear anyone go out? Impossible! It's weird.

At this time, the scolding voice of the Xuanqing Daoist came from the room: "Heizi! Then I saw him walk out and saw me stunned, "It's Qingming, why do you get up so early?" ”

I smiled nervously and said, "I'm used to it, I get up early every day to exercise." ”

Xuanqing Daoist nodded: "Okay, young man is diligent!" ”

Should I write to him now, I thought about it later, but somehow I was a little nervous.

When I returned to the room, I saw Hu San holding a quilt and still snoring, and saliva was flowing out.

"San'er, get up!" I shouted as I pushed him.

"Huh?" Hu San shook his head, opened his eyes violently, and sat up. He squinted his eyes and said impatiently, "What are you doing, it's the middle of the night!" ”

"Please, the sun is out, and it's still the middle of the night!"

Hu Sandian fell on the kang again, pulled up the quilt and covered his head.

Alas, it's hard for him, he must have been exhausted for the past two days. I didn't pay attention to Hu San anymore, but sat on the kang and thought about things.

What the hell was that shadow yesterday, there was no one else in the room except Xiaolian, and that shadow could never be Xiaolian. I remembered that the bed in that room was made of wood, not a kang, which means that something can be hidden under the bed, could it be that the monster is hiding under the bed? I shuddered at the thought of this.

Then there is, why did Xiaolian give me back this book? It stands to reason that her mother, the old Dao Gu, will not agree, then the question arises again, if the owner of the shadow is the old Dao Gu, and she hides under the bed, it means that the conversation between me and Xiaolian has been listened to by her, is it that she allowed Xiaolian to do this?

After thinking about it for a long time, my head was too big, so I simply didn't want to think about it, hoping that Xiaolian could tell me the truth in person in the future.

I closed my eyes and took a nap against the wall, but I didn't expect to have a dream, and I dreamed of Xiaolian. In the dream, I was still awakened by Xiaolian's knock on the door, or was she led to Tianqingguan, the same as what happened last night. I saw the strange shadow, and then I walked to the door of the room, Xiaolian was still standing in the door, still holding her hand behind her head, but when she took off the black scarf, I was dumbfounded, and I was so frightened by the scene in front of me that I couldn't breathe. I saw a worm head, with a pair of red eyes shining red in the candlelight, two long whiskers bent down from the head, dangling, and the horrible and disgusting mouthparts were closed one by one, whirring white smoke outward, and at the same time emitting a strange laugh, much like the sound she made that night in the fight with the old Taoist aunt.

I let out an awkward "ah" and woke up, panting hard.

"Hey! Neurotic! Hu San peeked his head out of his pants.

I ignored him, still gasping for breath, this dream is terrible, it's scary not because I saw a monster, but because Xiaolian became a monster. Impossible, absolutely impossible, how could Xiaolian become a monster, no, no.

Hu San saw that my expression was wrong, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with you, you're evil?" ”

I waved my hand at him, "It's okay, it's okay, it's just a nightmare!" "Xiaolian said that I can't tell anyone what happened last night, I have to keep my mouth shut.

At this time, Xuanqing Daoist walked in and asked us to have breakfast, Hu Sanluo jumped up and quickly got dressed.

We walked into the dining room and the table was already full of food.

I look very embarrassed every time someone eats, they are there to eat and drink, and I can only watch, and the most annoying thing is that I can still smell the food, but I can't eat it.
