Chapter 21: Still Eating

"Ahem, come in. ”

The door opened without wind, and the room was dark.

Ning Xiu glanced at Ning Ying beside him and followed in.

Although it was dark from the outside, when he actually walked in, he found that there was light inside.

in the lobby.

The old woman sat alone, hunched over, and the sound of coughing kept coming from her mouth.

"Mother. Ying Ning shouted and stood aside respectfully.

"Coming?"

The old woman raised her head slightly, glanced at Ying Ning, and then ignored it, her cloudy eyes were staring at Ning Xiu instead.

"Young man, do you remember the names of your relatives?"

Ning Xiu shook his head and replied: "When I was worshipping my ancestors in my early years, I looked through the genealogy and found that my ancestors had a relative who came to settle in Ju County. A few days ago, I was passing by here to visit a friend in the mountains, and I happened to remember this incident, and asked the old people in the county, and instructed me to come to this mountain to look for it, and maybe I could find it. ”

"Because the age is so old, and the genealogy only mentions it, I don't know the name of the ancestor back then. Besides, now that it's a sea of vicissitudes, I don't even know if she has any descendants left. If there are descendants, they should be the same as me, surnamed Wu. ”

These words were naturally said by Ying Ning Jiao Ning Xiu, and he practiced repeatedly for a long time, so he said them sincerely and sincerely, without the slightest mistake or omission.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"

The old woman coughed a few times, looked at Ning Xiu, her face was kind, and she slowly spoke: "There is only this one house in this mountain, I'm afraid you won't be able to find the person you are looking for." But the old man happens to be surnamed Wu, if you don't mind, just recognize a relative with me. ”

Ning Xiu looked at the old woman, and he didn't know if the other party was sincere.

For a time it should not be, and it should not be.

After what happened last night, Ning Xiu didn't know her horror yet. Sitting in front of him is not a broken old lady, but a ghost king with a thousand-year-old Taoism, and this is still her territory, Ning Xiu is just a mortal, it is natural to be cautious.

He glanced up at Ying Ning, wanting to see her reaction. But since Ying Ning entered this room, her whole person has completely changed, standing behind the old woman with her head down, like an angry little daughter-in-law.

Ning Xiu took a deep breath and said, "If the mother-in-law doesn't mind, the kid will be respectful and obedient." ”

Listening to Ning Xiu's words, the wrinkles on the old woman's face stretched out at the same time, like a sentence in full bloom. I saw her laugh again and again: "It's good if you don't dislike the old body." ”

"Where, where. Although he didn't know why the other party was so enthusiastic, Ning Xiu still waved his hand again and again.

The old woman was obviously in a good mood, but she reached out and grabbed Ying Ning, pulled her down in front of her, looked at Ning Xiu, and spoke.

"My husband's family name is Qin, and I didn't have children with him. He only left a daughter with his little wife, that is, Ying Ning. After Ying Ning's mother left, she was left to me to raise. This girl is not bad, but she lacks education, and she laughs all day long and doesn't know her sorrows, so you must have seen it. ”

"Mother!" said Ying Ningjiao.

"In the future, if one day the old body is gone, I hope you can bear it more. ”

I'll go, it's really the rhythm of a son-in-law seeing his mother-in-law.

I just recognized a ghost as a relative, do I want to marry a little fox as my wife?

No matter what Ning Xiu thought in his heart, he still responded very politely on the surface, and the two sides talked very harmoniously.

"Ning Lang has been away from home for a few days, and his family must be already worried. At this moment, Ying Ning suddenly spoke.

Ning Xiu glanced at Ying Ning, and then said: "Originally, I said that I would go back yesterday, but I came to visit relatives in the mountains on a whim, but now I have been delayed for two days, and it is time to go back." ”

The old woman looked at Ning Xiu and suddenly fell silent.

Seeing the old woman like this, Ning Xiu's heart almost rose to his throat, for fear that the other party would not agree. The old woman just stood up slowly and said lightly.

"Then have lunch and let's go. ”

Looking at the figure of the old woman turning away, thinking of the pain of last night, the corners of Ning Xiu's mouth couldn't help twitching.

Next Olympics, still eat!

Isn't this a human life!

Ying Ning saw Ning Xiu's expression, covered her mouth and smiled: "Don't worry, this time it won't be ghost food, if your mother wants to harm you, how can it be so troublesome." ”

In a short time, a maidservant brought the prepared meal.

Tender chicken, delicious fish, delicious greens.

During this period, Ying Ning frequently served vegetables for them, while the old woman sat there quietly, looking at Ning Xiu and them with a smile on her face.

......

After the meal, Ning Xiu left the thousand-year-old ghost mansion as he wished, still holding the gift given to him by the old woman in his hand.

In the house, because of Ning Xiu's departure, the dead silence returned again.

In the darkness, a voice came out, and there was a tiredness in the voice.

"You've really figured it out?"

No one responded, and after a few moments, the voice rang out again.

"You don't regret it......"

"Ahem, ahem...... I'm too old to shelter you for long. ”

The voice was flat as usual, she had listened to the voice for hundreds of years, but it made Ying Ning almost cry, she raised her head and found that the ghost mother's face seemed to be a little older at this moment.

"Okay, you go out, I'm tired. ”

Squeak~

Ying Ning slowly closed the door, and when she turned around, her face was already full of smiles.

"Mother, only those who choose in this world are qualified to say that they regret it, but I have no choice, and there has never been a ......"

......

Entering the ghost house empty-handed, Ning Xiu came out with an extra book in his hand and an extra jade pendant on his body.

He looked back and took a deep look at the thousand-year-old haunted mansion that was gradually disappearing into the darkness.

There are too many secrets he doesn't know, there are too many calculations he can't know, he can only passively bear it, and he almost lost his life just because of this.

It's all because he's still too weak now.

However, it was precisely because he recognized his weakness that Ning Xiu believed that he would return here one day.

Peel back everything behind this ghostly aura.

......

"It's back. ”

Ning Xiu glanced at the surroundings and knew that he had come out of the Xuanguang Illusion Realm, and with the previous experience, this time he seemed very indifferent.

But when he saw the book in his hand and the jade pendant on his body, his heart began to be uncalm again.

You can actually bring the items in the Radiant Illusion back to the present world?!

But he clearly failed to bring out the items last time he dungeon, and Xiao Zhu didn't mention this to him.

What the hell is going on?

It seems that this Xuanguang Illusion is far more complicated than I imagined.

Ning Xiu clenched his right hand and thought so in his heart.
