Chapter 7: Anado's Father's Thoughts
At this time, Lantern Xiao also woke up, rubbed his eyes and looked at the lights on the roof, "No, what are you two doing in the middle of the night?" ”
Lantern Xiao sat up and looked at it, and immediately widened her eyes, "Old man, why are you here?" ”
I looked at Lantern Xiao and didn't speak, then turned to Anado's father and said, "Uncle, what do you mean by this?" ”
Anado's father seemed embarrassed, his eyes flickering at us, and I noticed that most of his gaze was focused on Wenmo behind me.
Lantern Xiao walked over, "What the hell is going on?" Why did you invite the old man over in the middle of the night? ”
I smiled, "We didn't dare to disturb my uncle, he came uninvited." ”
Lantern Xiao was slightly stunned, and immediately understood what I meant, and couldn't help frowning.
I remembered Anado's father's actions just now, and slowly picked up his hand to take a look, and found that there was a lot of red powder stuck to his hand. This cinnabar has been one of the most powerful evil spirits since ancient times, what did Anado's father do when he brought cinnabar to our house? Especially his goal seems to be Wenmo!
Anado's father's face turned ugly, "Actually, I, alas! Before he finished speaking, he slapped his leg hard, "It's all my fault!" ”
I was about to ask again, when I heard footsteps coming from the stairs leading to the second floor, and I hurriedly made a silent gesture. Anado's house is a two-story wooden structure, we live downstairs and Anado's boudoir is upstairs. This footstep should be the sound of Anador coming downstairs.
Anado's father seemed to hear it too, and his face instantly became very panicked, and he looked at us with a pleading look in his eyes. I nodded, got up and gently opened the door, motioning for Anado's father to go out.
Anado's father walked out of the room lightly and coughed lightly in the hall on the first floor, when Anado's voice came, "Who?" Abba? Is that you? ”
Anado's father replied, "It's me, I didn't fall asleep, and I walked around the door." Ana, it's okay, go to sleep! ”
Anador yawned, "Okay, I see, Abba, you should rest early!" ”
Anado's father answered, and Anado's footsteps disappeared down the stairs.
After Anado's father went out, the three of us also whispered in the house. I asked Wenmo, "Boss, don't you really know him?" I always think that the way he looks at you is not right? ”
Wen Mo shook his head firmly, "Absolutely not, I'm very sure of this!" ”
Lantern Xiao opened his mouth and said, "That's right, I think so too. Ay! Do you think it will be, this old man has been single for a long time, and his daughter is not around, so he is empty, lonely and cold, and then he gradually ...... to men"
Before the Lantern Festival finished speaking, I kicked it aside, "It's really a dog can't spit out ivory in his mouth, if you don't say something stupid, you can't open your mouth, right?" ”
Lantern Xiao was not happy anymore, "What I said is useless, then you can say something useful, you can tell me what's going on, right?" Seeing that we didn't have anything to say, he snorted coldly.
At this moment, the door of our house was pushed open again, and Anado's father walked in again, and walked straight to Wenmo's side, "Was you the one who saw me in the mountains in the first place?" Are you here for me? What retribution will come upon me, and I hope not to hurt my daughter! As he spoke, he bent down and bowed to Wen Mo.
We were all blindsided, and quickly helped him up, "Uncle, what are you talking about?" ”
Wen Mo walked up, looked at the cinnabar rubbed on Anado's father's hand, and said, "There may be some misunderstanding between us. As he spoke, he reached out and rubbed some cinnabar and put it on his eyebrows.
We watched Wenmo finish this, and for some reason, Anado's father seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then breathed a sigh of relief, looking a little more relaxed, "It's me who misunderstood you, I'm really sorry!" But, but," Anado's father's eyes widened, and he looked at Wenmo in disbelief. "But, how can there be such a thing in this world, what I saw at the beginning ......"
It could be seen that Anado's father was very shocked, and even spoke a little incoherently.
I helped Anador's father to sit down, and then said, "Uncle, if there is anything going on here, I hope you can explain it to us." ”
After listening to my words, Anado still bowed his head and remained silent, I saw that he was still a little hesitant, so he said: "Uncle, I don't think you want this matter to be known to Anado, so I hope you will explain the matter to us clearly." ”
In the end, Anado's father gritted his teeth and seemed to have made up a lot of determination, and then sighed, "Actually, this matter has been pressing on my heart for a long time, and I know that I have made a mistake and taken something that I shouldn't have taken, and I will be punished by the gods. ”
The three of us looked at each other, and Lantern Xiao said to Anado's father: "Uncle, don't worry, speak slowly, don't worry, it's safe here, and no one will hurt you!" ”
Anado's father nodded, and then his voice trembled and told us about an incident he had encountered.
Speaking of which, things are not far from now, it happened at the end of October last year, when it was late autumn in the north, and it was the time when the cold was getting stronger, but at this time Guangxi was still pleasant, and the minimum temperature every day was above 20 degrees Celsius.
Anado's father, as one of the few doctors in the nearby villages and eight villages, was often invited to other villages to treat people, and one day, he went to Beiwang Village, more than 20 miles away, to treat people, and came back a little late. Halfway along the mountain road, it was almost completely dark.
If it were someone like me, I would be scared in this situation, but for people like Anado's father, it is simply common to walk through the mountain roads every day, and the nearby mountain roads are so familiar that they can almost walk down with their eyes closed. So Anado's father wasn't very worried, but he still tried to speed up his pace, because he could feel that it was about to rain!
Sure enough, he walked forward for a short time, when suddenly there was a flash of lightning and thunder, and heavy rain poured down.
Guangxi is rainy, in order to hide from the rain, people will build a small grass hut in the roadside forest in some places for passers-by to hide from the rain. Anado's father found a small grass hut and hid from the rain for a while, only to find that the rain had no intention of stopping, but was getting heavier and heavier.
