Chapter 123: Who's Afraid of Whom
Most girls are afraid of ghost stories, just as most girls love ghost stories.
There is no language problem in the above sentence, really.
Lin Xue has no talent for storytelling, and from a literary point of view, what she describes to us is a running account without any rhetorical methods, but her story is more important than truth, which makes the story of this old desert island mansion immediately fascinating.
We didn't wonder if Lin Xue had made up a ghost story to scare us, because she swore that what she said was true - according to what we have known for a while, at least in this case, her words are completely credible, although the legend that the old house on the island was once completely demolished but reappeared the next day is that she heard it from the old people in the family, and it is not necessarily credible, However, the existence of an old mansion on such an uninhabited desert island covered by dense forests that I don't know who built and abandoned for some reason is already very interesting in itself, not to mention that Mr. Lin also strictly forbids the younger generations of the family to come to this island - maybe this ban works very well for everyone up and down the Lin family, but now it seems that for Lin Xue, a naughty girl, such a ban is exactly the same as if it is not - which makes us even more fascinated by the old mansion full of mystery.
Because I didn't want to be accidentally knocked down by food poisoning, Lin Xue and I were strictly forbidden by the chefs to be within five meters of the ingredients, and even Sandora, a guy who barely eats dead people when cooking, was allowed to stay and help, which shows how earth-shattering Lin Xue's cooking skills and I are......
We were driven over with Little Bubbles, not that she also planned to help cook, but that she was afraid that she would steal charcoal to eat......
"You haven't been back since you left the island as a child?" I turned my head to look at the lush trees behind me, wondering why this exploratory and violent troublemaker had never returned to the island.
When it comes to things when she was a child, Lin Xue seems to like to talk very much, only to see her show a nostalgic look, and said slowly: "At that time, Xiaofeng and I were still young, although I was very curious about here, but the adults in the family didn't let us come, and after a long time, my interest naturally faded, and then I joined the organization because of the strange things, and dealt with all kinds of strange things all day long, and I slowly forgot about this small island...... Speaking of which, my grandfather was always worried that my brother and I would sneak to this family forbidden place again because of curiosity, and when I was a child, I often sent people to secretly follow us, and I was studying at an elementary school in the neighborhood at the time, and we were transferred to another school because of this......"
"No wonder you came here secretly, you lived around here when you were a kid - so you didn't grow up in China?"
"How to say, there should be half of the time in China, half of the time abroad, grandpa always wants me and my younger brother to receive the best education, so he has been letting us in the world of those long-established aristocratic schools around, and then my dad said that children should not leave home all the year round to wander around, grandpa felt very reasonable, and took us to China, although grandpa is famous for his wisdom and erudition, but once it comes to me and Xiaofeng, he and dad are always like this, Now that I think about it, they can't help it......"
That's not what you thought back then, did you? I said this in my heart, such a young child was sent by an adult to a place so far away from home, anyone will have resentment in their hearts, but now that they have grown up, they finally understand the painstaking efforts of their parents - Lin Xue is already good, many children, I am afraid that even when they grow up, it is difficult to understand the good intentions of their parents back then, right?
"What about you?" Lin Xue sighed for her beautiful childhood that had been drowned by the torrent of time, and suddenly changed her words and said to me, "What were you like when you were a child?" The tragic and bumpy childhood life of an imperial head of state...... It's got to be a super interesting story......
"Almost," I deliberately pretended to be sad, "I'm an orphan, I don't even know what my parents look like, I was adopted by my sister's family, but my adoptive parents also died when I was very young, and then my sister and I depended on each other, and I was worried about life every day in that childhood, and there was nothing to say......"
"Ah, I'm sorry, I ......" Lin Xue immediately showed an uneasy look, now she really wanted to give herself a mouthful, obviously she knew this guy's life experience when she investigated before, why did she ask so thoughtlessly now? What now?
But when she looked up in trepidation and tried to make amends to me, she saw a heartless smile.
I laughed, holding down the little bubble next to her to keep her from running around, and said, "Although life was a little hard when I was a child, but now, I'm quite happy......
"Wow, you bastard dare to tease Miss Ben!" Lin Xue's eyes widened, and then she swung her fist at my chin, "Turn me into a meteor in the sky!" ”
Hmph, Emperor Ben Xiling has been strengthened by Shandora many times, plus the diligent exercise on weekdays, it is so easy to be hit by such a hairy girl as you!
I'm flashing!
Three seconds later, I hit the ground with a thud......
Woo woo, I was wrong, I was really wrong, playing dodge in front of a prophet is the performance of Coke in my head, and before I moved the place, Lin Xue had already simulated my landing point......
I lay on the ground with tears streaming down my face, feeling like this in my heart, Lin Xue walked next to me, looked down at me, and then shook the mountains with a smile, and the little bubbles "cooed" and muttered a language that no one understood and ran to squat down next to me, and then pinched my jaw that had deviated and forced, "click" sound......
I knew she was trying to help me get my jaw right, but it was clear that the little guy had wrist strength far beyond her appearance, so my jaw went the other way...... Little Bubbles looked at my still distorted chin in confusion, muttered again, and stretched out her little hand again......
Because an unlucky man had a dislocated jaw and couldn't chew, this rare seaside barbecue ended when one person drank soup in pain and everyone ate meat happily.
"I wanted Jun Chen to try my handiwork," Sandora said with an unhappy look on her face, watching with jealousy as Pandora curled up in my arms and told me the story of the Thousand and One Battles.
Asa looked at my visibly swollen chin distressedly, then lowered her head and continued to twist around Little Bubbles' face to punish the little daredevil, who had dealt me many serious blows.
I could clearly feel the little war maniac in my arms writhing slightly—smiling.
It's a rare thing that Pandora finally has the upper hand in the war with her little bubble.
"Okay, okay, didn't Sandora say it, this pervert's recovery ability is more than twenty times that of a normal person," Lin Xue never gave up the opportunity to attack me personally, "It is estimated that it will not be a problem for him to compete with Guo Degang and scold the street in a short time, now let's discuss the matter of tomorrow's expedition." ”
"Ha, when I think about it, I'm looking forward to exploring such interesting places tomorrow!" Qianqian didn't look scared at all, although she had been nervously nestled in my arms when Lin Xue told the legend of the desert island mansion just now, "Lin Xue, did you say there would be ghosts or something!" ”
"You're not scared at all?" Lin Xue is not the type of shallow and coarse nerves, she is still a little afraid of a traditional thriller like ghosts and gods, although she is the initiator of this expedition, she still maintains a high degree of vigilance.
Qianqian finally let go of the little bubble that was already in her arms, stood up, and said majestically: "What are you afraid of?!" Even if there is really a ghost, this Heavenly Master will also accept him for Tianxingdao! ”
This is true, even Caesar was in a shallow time cage and couldn't move for a while, I don't believe that the local imps and monsters on the earth can be more powerful than Caesars......
As for whether there are ghosts in this world - even the legendary characters of the Protoss can be encountered by me, and if there are not two or three ghosts and ghosts, I will feel unreal!
Little Bubble, who had finally been freed, slipped into Sandora's arms, and the latter immediately took over the shallow unfinished work: a punishment full of motherly love......
It seems that the little guy doesn't know what mistakes he has made, at this time, except for Lin Xue, who is gloating, no matter where you hide, you can't escape this punishment......
In the midst of our laughter and the confused screams of the little bubbles, Lin Xue could only helplessly hold her forehead with her hand and say: "Which ghost has met a superhuman army like you for eight lifetimes......
