Chapter Twenty-Five: The Mysterious Shadow
I was stunned for a moment, not understanding what the village chief meant, and when I wanted to ask again, he had already taken his wife away.
My adoptive father glanced back at me and said softly, "Ah Lian, can you tell me now, what happened to you?" ”
Facing my adoptive father's searching gaze, I knew that I couldn't shirk it any longer, so I said truthfully: "Dad, the white snake birthmark on my body has woken up!" ”
I could clearly feel his body shake slightly, my adoptive father had always known that the birthmark existed, and he probably knew that there was something wrong with it.
Then he sighed lightly: "What should come is always coming, you can't escape after all!" ”
"Dad, what the hell is going on? Who should come? "Now it's my turn to understand, I have always thought that my adoptive father is an ordinary village doctor, and I don't believe in these supernatural events, but now it seems that I was wrong.
My adoptive father always knew what the birthmark of the white snake meant, and perhaps he also guessed that I might have an entanglement with it.
At this time, Bai Zimo was still sitting on the windowsill like that, but his half-squinted eyes had already opened.
I remember Bai Zimo once said that some of his memories were confused.
So, he must be wondering what my adoptive father knew now.
My adoptive father gave me a deep look: "Ah Lian, did he do anything to you when he woke up?" ”
My face turned red, and my adoptive father asked if it was too straightforward, thinking of the good things that Bai Zimo did last night, my heart was pounding.
I couldn't help but glance at him, he was fine, pretending to be dead on the windowsill, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
"No, Dad, what do you say is the birthmark of the White Snake?" I wasn't embarrassed to answer his question, I just played dumb.
The adoptive father shook his head, as if caught up in some memory.
"When I picked you up back then, there was a wandering warlock who said that the origin of the white snake birthmark on your body was not simple, and I was afraid that there would be disasters in the future, but I couldn't bear to let you fend for yourself while you were still in swaddling clothes, and took you to Yunjia Village, but I didn't expect that this white snake birthmark really brought you disaster!"
I admit that what happened to me recently was because of Bai Zimo, but I don't think he brought about these disasters.
"Dad, do you know something?" I asked, puzzled.
"When you were in a coma at Aya's house, Wang Lexin told me when he sent you back that his master explained that if you wake up and everything is as usual, it will be fine, and if you wake up and there is a vision in the village, it means that the white snake sealed on your body has come out!"
The adoptive father said, pointing to the basket next to him: "What you did just now was also taught to you by the White Snake, right?" ”
No wonder my adoptive father was not surprised that I had been asleep for more than a month, because he understood what I was going through.
And he also knew that the White Snake would wake up.
So, when the villagers wanted to get rid of the white snake on me, they thought they would let me go quickly.
He must have thought that when the White Snake woke up and left my body, the villagers would no longer deal with me.
It's a pity that the villagers were controlled by the black shadow at that time, and that bloody scene was staged in front of him.
In the past few days, he has forbearably not asked me about the White Snake, perhaps waiting for me to tell him personally.
I really wanted to know what kind of attitude my adoptive father had towards Bai Zimo, so I asked tentatively: "Dad, since Master Mu and they know that there is a problem with the birthmark of the White Snake on my body, why don't they deal with it, but take Aya away?" Aren't they afraid that the white snake will wake up and harm people? ”
The adoptive father shook his head: "I don't know about this, I only care about your safety, as long as no one hurts you, I don't care about other things!" ”
His off-string sound, it should be acceptable if Bai Zimo didn't hurt me.
I looked at Bai Zimo and wanted him to show up and tell my adoptive father not to worry about me.
But Bai Zimo shook his head: "I can't appear in front of people now, so as not to cause trouble to you!" ”
I'm right when I think about it, if my adoptive father knew that Bai Zimo, a snake turned into a man, and followed me all day long, and even slept with me, I am afraid that he would jump up in anger.
"Dad, don't worry, no one can hurt me in the future!" I pointed to my collarbone: "He'll protect me!" ”
The adoptive father nodded silently and asked softly, "Aren't you afraid of this white snake?" ”
I nodded slowly.
I used to be afraid, and I thought of many ways to get rid of this birthmark, but now, I'm not afraid.
The adoptive father subconsciously looked around, and finally gave up: "I don't know if he can hear us if he is there, I'm just worried about you, he woke up from you, and he must have an inextricable relationship with you, I'm afraid, I'm afraid that he will eventually ......"
I hurriedly interrupted him: "Dad, no, besides, there is nothing in this world that I can lose except you, as long as you are good, I am good!" ”
The adoptive father finally nodded: "Well, if there is anything in the future, we will face it together, just like you said, no matter how difficult it is, it will be like this!" ”
My adoptive father and I tidied up the yard and cleaned the pots and dishes.
I wanted to ask my adoptive father where he got these things, so that he could help him move them back together.
As a result, my adoptive father said to me: "Ah Lian, don't worry about what the village chief said, this is not something you can do, while the people in the village still remember your kindness, hurry up and pack your things and go to Jiangcheng as soon as possible!" ”
As he spoke, he put all the bowls into the cauldron, picked up the pot with both hands, and went to the back room.
Naturally, I want to go to Jiangcheng as soon as possible, but I haven't figured out Bai Zimo's affairs yet.
Besides, I was reluctant to leave my adoptive father alone so early, so I chased after him and said, "Dad, I'll help you carry it, there's no hurry to go to school, didn't we go to the town to take pictures before, this hasn't been done yet, or go again tomorrow!" ”
As soon as I reached for it, my adoptive father stepped aside.
He whispered to me, "Okay, you don't need your help, you can deal with the basket of snakes in the courtyard first, lest they come out to harm one party again!" There is a chance to take pictures, so you will go to Jiangcheng tomorrow. ”
I wondered why my adoptive father was cleaning up and avoiding me, and deliberately instructed me to deal with the little black snake?
I always feel like there's a problem, but I can't figure out what the problem is.
In order not to let him see it, I nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go!" ”
I pretended to go to the yard, and when he went to the back of the house, I quietly followed.
At this time, Bai Zimo grabbed me: "It's easy to be found if you go, I'll take a look!" ”
I stared at Bai Zimo for a while, this guy has a lot of eyes, and his adoptive father can't see it, so he is indeed more suitable than me to follow, so he said to him: "Then you are not allowed to hide anything from me, and not a word is allowed to be fake!" ”
I don't know why, I always have a bad premonition in my heart, and I always feel that my adoptive father has something to hide from me.
"I know, I'm really convinced, what's there to care about a few broken bowls, I have to go and see where to put it!"
After he finished speaking, he was probably afraid that I would scold him again, and he would disappear as soon as he slipped away.
I couldn't help but shake my head, but I didn't understand why I suddenly cared about this.
I walked into the courtyard while thinking, but when I arrived in the courtyard, I was immediately dumbfounded, the basket containing the black snake had fallen to the ground, the cloth that sealed the mouth had been lifted, and all the little black snakes inside were gone.
What's going on?
Who just came in? Who's going to take those little black snakes?
The first thing I thought of was Liu Yiran, this guy was the Black Snake, and he probably had compassion for his own kind, so he let them go.
But thinking about it deeply, he felt that it wouldn't be him, if he really cared about these little black snakes, he wouldn't have disappeared for no reason just now.
And he also knows how these black snakes came from, if they don't handle it well, there will definitely be chaos.
Won't be so confused.
So who else would there be?
Is the rockery god making a comeback, or is the black gas that robbed Bai Zi Menedan at fault?
What did they want to do with letting go of these little black snakes?
Do you want to control the villagers again?
Thinking of this, I hurriedly went back to the house and walked towards the backyard, I had to tell Bai Zimo about it.
This time we can't afford to be harmed by the shadows again.
But when I went to the back of the house, I couldn't find him or my adoptive father.
My backyard is not very wide, and it is less than 20 meters away from the mountain behind me, so I can see it clearly at a glance.
There was a utility room in the backyard, I walked there and looked inside, it was dark and I couldn't see anything, I shouted a few times, but my adoptive father didn't answer, and my heart suddenly became nervous.
How could such a large living person suddenly disappear? Could it be that you can pack up your things and go to the mountains?
I've never been up this mountain before, and it's so steep that it doesn't look like you can go up from here.
The more I thought about it, the more scared I became, and I was worried that something bad would happen to my adoptive father.
However, at this moment, I saw a black shadow flash rapidly, and the wind that drove it ruffled my hair, and the chill on my body hit again.
If there is a situation, something must have happened.
But everywhere the eye looked, there was peace.
I walked in the direction where the black shadow had flashed just now, and saw a black shadow coming out of my room again, and hurriedly chased after me and shouted, "Who is it?" What are you doing sneakily? ”
I didn't expect the black shadow to stop, although it was only a black shadow, but I felt a full malice from him.
Then, a voice that seemed to come from hell came: "Do even ants dare to stop me, looking for death?" ”
I've seen the rockery god fight against Bai Zimo, and I know that these black shadows are not easy to mess with.
But he suddenly appeared, and at this time, his adoptive father and Bai Zimo disappeared for no reason, so he suspected that he had done something.
I don't know where the guts came from, so I yelled at him: "What are you doing to me, don't do anything to my family!" ”
"You?" His tone was very disdainful: "Oh, that's right, you are the great hero of the year, if the sealing of the White Snake did not have you, it would be impossible to do it, but unfortunately, you are now inseparable from the enemy and me, and there is no cure!" ”
I don't understand what the Black Shadow means, what does sealing the White Snake have to do with me.
And it's impossible for me to believe in a dark shadow who doesn't even dare to show his true face.
This kind of shady thing is strange to stir up discord.
"You don't have to bewitch me, say, what did you do to my dad?" As I spoke, I took out the peach pit pendant that Aya's had given me from my pocket and threw it at the dark shadow.
There are runes on the peach pit, which can suppress Liu Yiran and Bai Zimo before, and it may also be effective against this strange guy.
But I underestimated the Black Shadow's abilities.
When the peach pit touched him, nothing happened.
He just snorted, and then flew far away, leaving a sentence: "Sooner or later, you will know the truth, and you will pay for your actions!" ”
