Chapter 40: The Future of Mountain Rain (Finale)

"Mommy, Dad!"

Xu Fangya and Zhao Xiaojun turned around and saw the figure that they were thinking about day and night-

It was a cute five or six-year-old boy, and at the moment, he was greeting them with a small school bag.

Then, he ran into the old mansion in a puff of smoke.

The boy rides in circles in the courtyard, and the tanuki dozes on the branches of the sycamore;

The boy helped the man build the small flower bed, and the woman prepared fruit and tea on the side;

The boy mischievously climbed up the plane tree, and the woman who was watering the flowers shouted loudly;

……

The images are vivid, the memories are shining, but the reality is ...... Dusky.

Xu Yafang changed the image of an indifferent strong woman just now, and covered her mouth with a sad expression, but there was still a whimper through her fingers. Seeing this, Zhao Xiaojun comfortingly hugged this woman who was strong in her life.

A green glow shimmered, as if to speak.

Wutong has long lost the ability to manifest, and it is because he burned his last life and with the help of Bai Jiu that he was able to appear last.

This is the finale of the sycamore.

"I'm really happy to see you for the last time......"

"Old man Wutong, have you been waiting here?" Zhao Xiaojun asked in a choked voice.

"It's been a long time, so please let each other go and let yourself go......"

Wutong's voice was fluctuating, and it seemed to be very weak.

"Let's try to be happier...... And, thank you. ”

The green light dissipated, and the sycamore was no longer sound.

"Old man...... Let's go. ”

More than 50 years ago, when the sycamore was transplanted into the courtyard of the old house, it was still a small sapling, and it can be said that it grew up with Zhao Xiaojun.

The couple had not seen each other for more than 20 years after losing their child, but they did not expect to indirectly kill this honest and heartfelt old partner.

Although, more than ten years ago, he had come to the old mansion from afar, after all, he did not have the courage to step into this courtyard. Perhaps by that time, Sycamore's body had already begun to go downhill.

The light faded, and the darkness slowly pressed over, and they were still in the dark courtyard of the old age.

Tangtang sobbed quietly on the side, and Lin Zuzu only felt very regretful.

If it had been earlier, maybe ...... Will it end differently?

Still, illusion is really ...... False and beautiful.

If there is such a fantasy that only exists in the plot you want, will you still be willing to withdraw from it?

For example, Mom and Dad are here...... That world.

"Flowers in the mirror, moon in the water, a dream is over."

"Two, are you satisfied with this complimentary service?"

A charming voice sounded, and Bai Jiu walked out.

Sugarcandy, a little damp, was squatting on the stump of the sycamore with the antique watch in her mouth.

Xu Fangya and Zhao Xiaojun realized that the cat and the watch were not by their side.

"Thank you, the bounty will be credited to the account you left behind."

Xu Fangya regained her usual calmness and left the man's arms.

"Cindy is home." She called.

The tanuki cat obediently "meowed" and followed behind Xu Fangya.

Zhao Xiaojun was still thinking about the authenticity of everything that happened just now, but he saw the weird sugar candy winking at him. Since he inherited the magical rune stone, he naturally had a high acceptance of such a strange event.

Bai Jiu handed the watch back to Zhao Xiaojun.

"This rune stone is no longer usable."

As soon as he sensed it just now, he found that the number of uses had bottomed out.

Zhao Xiaojun smiled bitterly and said, "When I got it from my dad, I knew that it could only be used three times, and this is the last time." ”

"Still, it's the right time to use it." He looked at his lover's back.

At the other end, Xu Fangya, who had not gone far, was stunned, she walked to the car and put the tanuki cat in the car.

"Mom, are you done?"

Xu Xinzhao was awakened from a nap in the car, and the moment he saw Tangtang, he smiled and hugged her into his arms.

"One more moment." As she spoke, the old lady closed the door.

"Fangya, it's so late, I'll send you back." Zhao Xiaojun was a little happy to see the stubborn old lady turn around.

"No, my son sent me."

"Ah, then you go back and be careful."

Although he is still alone, he also understands that it is not a wrong thing for the other party to meet his lover again.

"It's an adopted son."

Xu Fangya didn't know why she was talking too much, so she could only continue: "You didn't explain in advance that you need blood relatives and the number of times you need to use the watch, so I don't think it's wrong to be resentful for so many years." ”

Zhao Xiaojun is helpless, even after so many years, she is still so unforgiving.

"But thank you today." Xu Fangya said and turned to leave.

Zhao Xiaojun chuckled in relief, turned around and returned to the courtyard, broke off a piece of dead branch and put it in the pocket of his clothes.

Old man...... According to you, we should let go too, right?

"Sugar Candy, what the hell is going on? I just felt a huge demonic aura in it. ”

"Stupid human, I'll talk to you when I go back! Finally...... Woowoo...... Finally ......"

"Mom is here, don't talk yet."

Xu Fangya got into the car and fastened her seat belt, looked at the silent person and cat, and said:

"Alright, stop acting. Really, when I believe the that a tanuki cat can live to be thirty years old? ”

"Hey, my mother is still smart, how did you talk to Uncle Zhao?" Xu Xinzhao

"Drive, go home."

Bai Jiu receives a new friend application on his phone, and the avatar is Sugar Candy.

He hesitated and clicked agree, and in the moment of passing, dozens of messages came-

"Boss White! Thank you very much for today! ”

"The subtlety of your illusion is simply breathtaking, and I am so impressed that I am impressed."

"Hey, besides, that human brain is really good!"

"Thank you for me, too!"

"Feel free to open up where you can get it in the future!"

……

It wasn't until the two cars left in different directions that Lin Zuzu walked out of the shadows where he was hiding.

There are rumors of haunting in the old mansion, and it should be that Tangtang and Wutong were misunderstood when they communicated at night, so there is no so-called evil spirit.

Bai Jiu handed the girl the news that Tangtang thanked her, and she showed a few light smiles.

Once again, she felt the warmth of the back of the worldβ€”the little warmth she had participated in creating.

In the past few days, seeing the respect of various monsters for Bai Jiu, Lin Zuzu knew that in addition to his strength, his identity was definitely not simple.

But such a big demon happily stepped in and helped them fulfill their wishes.

"Thank you, Xiaobai."

"Me too." Bai Jiu smiled lightly.

"Huh?" Why thank me?

"Let's go back."

"At this point, it should be difficult to call a taxi in this area."

"Let's go for a walk, then...... After a while, it will be dawn. ”

……

Thank you for going the extra mile.

Thank you for being a part of my extra efforts.
