Chapter 31: Before Parting
Before I could figure out what he meant, my head was dizzy, and I couldn't hold my body at all.
After shaking a few times, he finally fell into Liu Yiran's arms.
Loss of consciousness followed.
When I woke up, I found myself still in bed.
It was already pitch black outside the window.
I touched the birthmark at the collarbone, it was cool, the same as the previous touch.
Stroking Bai Zimo's snake head, he whispered: "I know you will definitely wake up, as long as you are well, what does it matter if you are a freak, with you, I am not afraid of anything!" ”
It's a pity that Bai Zimo's magnetic voice never came again.
It's like you're back to square one.
At this time, my adoptive father pushed the door in, still holding the food in his hand, and said to me, "Didn't you just say that you were hungry, come and eat!" ”
Looking at my adoptive father who cared for me, my heart throbbed, just now my mind was full of white ink, and I actually ignored the existence of my adoptive father.
Could it be that in my heart, Bai Zimo is more important than his adoptive father?
No, they are just as important to me.
So, there are some things that I want to talk to my adoptive father about.
I forced myself to sit up, took the food and put it on the table beside me, buried my head and whispered to my adoptive father, "Dad, there is something I want to tell you!" ”
My adoptive father seemed to know what I was going to say, so he brought the food over to me again: "What's the matter, wait until you're done, don't go hungry!" ”
I bit my lip, so I had to take a few bites of the rice chop and say softly, "Dad, the food you cook is so delicious!" ”
"Eat more if it's delicious, I'm going to Jiangcheng tomorrow, and there will be fewer days to go home for dinner in the future!"
My adoptive father moved a stool and sat in front of me and watched me quietly.
I know that my adoptive father is the person who cares about me the most in this world, and I can't let Bai Zimo become a barrier between us.
So I hurriedly ate the meal in a few bites, calmed down, looked directly into my adoptive father's eyes but said cautiously, "Bai Zimo is back." ”
My adoptive father said before that Bai Zimo and I are not from the same world, and he has left me.
I don't know what kind of reaction he will have when he hears that Bai Zimo is still there.
My adoptive father was only stunned for a moment, and then he raised his eyebrows and said to me: "Come back, come back, Dad doesn't ask for anything, just ask you to be safe and happy, if Bai Zimo is good to you, Dad also recognizes his existence, but if he dares to hurt you, then Dad will do his best to protect you!" ”
In an instant, my tears began to fall.
My adoptive father was able to accept the snake demon in his mouth before for me, and his support for me has always been unconditional, such fatherly love made me cry instantly.
When he saw me crying, he leaned over and reached out to wipe the corners of his eyes for me, his eyes were full of love: "Fool, Dad believes in your choice!" ”
I nodded tearfully: "Bai Zimo was seriously injured, and he turned into a birthmark and returned to me, when he recovers, I will definitely let you meet him!" ”
The adoptive father's face was a little heavy, and he said slowly: "Whether he can survive this catastrophe safely, and it depends on the will of heaven!" ”
I suddenly felt that my adoptive father actually knew something, and opened my mouth to ask, but I didn't dare ask.
I was afraid to hear the truth I didn't want to hear.
I suspect that Bai Zimo's transformation back to his original form and being sealed under the ancestral hall also has something to do with his adoptive father.
After all, Bai Zimo disappeared when he went to the backyard with his adoptive father.
I looked down at my collarbone, where Bai Zimo's snake head was resting with his eyes closed.
In the end, I didn't say anything, but my adoptive father babbled on and on many things to pay attention to when I went out, and told me to be careful alone.
It wasn't until I started yawning that he stopped and said meaningfully: "Sometimes you think you have found someone to shelter you from the wind and rain, but he brought the wind and rain in your life!" Everything is predestined, Dad can't help you! You can walk the road by yourself! ”
After the adoptive father finished speaking, he put away the dishes and chopsticks and went out.
I sat on the bed and savored my adoptive father's words, but my heart was like a mess.
A lot of things don't know the beginning, the end, and the focus.
Do I really want to leave Yunjia Village with a stomach full of questions?
I lay on the bed tossing and turning.
Unconsciously, my consciousness became more and more confused, and faintly, I seemed to hear my adoptive father talking to someone.
I remembered to see what was going on, but I couldn't move at all, and my strength felt like I had been drained, and I felt like a ghost pressing the bed.
An old voice came from outside: "Yun Yan, are you really not going to tell her these things?" ”
After being silent for a while, the adoptive father's voice came: "Ah Lian is like my own daughter, all I care about in this life is her feelings, and no one wants to take advantage of her!" ”
"This is not called exploitation, you should understand that Bai Zimo's waking up is not accidental, although he is now back in the seal, but if he wakes up again, he will definitely come back to take revenge, and Ah Lian will also be implicated!"
I don't know who this old voice will be, and he wants to use me to do something to Bai Zimo.
I pulled myself together and listened.
Then the adoptive father sneered: "If Bai Zimo really dares to hurt Ah Lian, I will definitely not let him go!" ”
"You are just a country man, what ability do you have to confront Bai Zimo, you have always heard of what he did thousands of years ago, right? Also, why did he wake up on Ah Lian's body, don't you think there is anything wrong with this? ”
I listened to the meaning of the old voice, they should have known about Bai Zimo's past, but they didn't know who he was, and what did he want to convince his adoptive father to do together?
There are more and more mysteries, since Bai Zimo woke up, everything that happened around me was closely related to him, but I fell in love with this troubled snake.
But listening to what they said, Bai Zimo returned to my body this time, that is, he returned to the seal.
Could it be that my body is the one that seals Bai Zimo?
Wouldn't it be a disservice to me if I let him come back to him?
Didn't Liu Yiran know about this? Why didn't he remind me?
After thinking about it, I couldn't come up with a result, but then my adoptive father said solemnly: "I have my own plans for this matter, so I won't bother you all the time, I will deal with it!" ”
Then the old voice snorted coldly: "Don't be ignorant, there are some things that you can't handle alone!" ”
Then there was silence, and it was supposed that the man was gone.
And there seemed to be Yun'er's voice in my ears again: "Master, wake up, wake up!" The box is gone! ”
I thought about it for a while before I remembered the box, but I was in a hurry to find Bai Zimo at that time, and I didn't continue to get it, why did it suddenly disappear?
I was in a hurry, and then I shook and woke up.
The morning sun shines through the windows and is quiet and peaceful.
Outside the house, there was the chirping of birds, just like a normal morning.
I stretched out my arms, but there was a hint of warmth on my wrists, and then I realized that the peach pit pendant that Aya had given me was actually wearing it on my wrist again.
I remember when I saw the black shadow in the yard, I smashed the peach pit in a hurry, and then a series of things happened, and the peach pit had long been left behind by me, why is it wearing it on my hand now?
My memories are starting to get confused, and I really can't scrutinize them.
I couldn't help but shake my head, touched the peach pit pendant and said to myself: "What should come will always come, Aya, you must be paying attention to everything here somewhere, right?" ”
I got up and opened the window, and my adoptive father was still clucking and feeding the chickens in the yard as if nothing had happened.
But I know he's different.
I'm not the same anymore.
I don't know who my adoptive father was talking to last night, but I know he's protecting me.
I'm going to leave him today, so I don't want to disturb his peace with these troubles.
So, I walked out gently, looked at my adoptive father's back and said, "Dad, you said that Jiangcheng is not big, will I get lost when I go to school there?" ”
My adoptive father heard my voice and poured the chicken food in his hand into the chicken pen.
Then he patted the ash on his hands, turned to me and smiled: "Dad has never been out of this mountain in his life, I really don't know how big it is outside, but Wang Lexin will accompany you, and Dad can rest assured!" ”
It really makes me wonder why my adoptive father is so relieved about Wang Lexin now, and even I think he always mentions this person intentionally or unintentionally, and he is speechless when he thinks about it.
Although I don't have a special dislike for Wang Lexin, I can't talk about a good impression, why does my adoptive father not leave Wang Lexin?
"Dad, were you bought by Wang Lexin, why is it him? Yesterday he said that he would pick me up and go to school, why is it now that he is accompanying me to Jiangcheng? ”
The adoptive father grinned: "Ah Lian, Wang Lexin said that he was also admitted to Jiangcheng's university, although it is not a medical school, but it is quite close to that, so you two stop by the way, listen to him, Li Yuetong is also in the same school as you, and the three of you have company!" ”
I'm a little puzzled, didn't Li Yuetong's parents let her take the normal exam, why did she go to Jiangcheng Medical College, her score seems to be a few points behind, what the hell is going on?
I didn't say anything, and nodded lightly: "Well, then I'll contact them after dinner and see what car to take to Jiangcheng!" ”
"Breakfast is ready, let's go in and eat!" As the adoptive father spoke, he turned and went into the back room.
There are three dishes and one soup on the kitchen table, it seems that my adoptive father got up early today, I still think that I am about to leave, make him a meal, but I didn't expect that I was always early for him.
I was a little dumbfounded, I didn't know what to say, and my adoptive father had nothing to say to me that was really good.
If I am in love with a normal person now, maybe what we are sitting together now is the marriage and mundane things in the future.
But my preference is for a snake.
This was the last meal before parting, and I silently pulled the meal, a little unsavory.
My adoptive father gave me a chicken leg and smiled at me, but didn't say anything.
The daughter who has been raised for 18 years is about to go away, and I think he is also in a bad mood, but he just endured it and didn't show it.
My throat was choked, and I was afraid that my adoptive father would be even more uncomfortable if I lost control of my emotions, so I buried my head in nibbling on the chicken legs, and even said that it was delicious, it was delicious.
In fact, the mouth is full of bitter taste.
It may be that everything I had to explain last night was finished, and my adoptive father didn't say a word until I finished the last bite of food.
In the end, I broke the silence: "Dad, you take care of yourself at home, and pay more attention when you go up the mountain to collect medicine, don't fall!" ”
I saw that my adoptive father's eyes began to flush, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, but he still smiled so kindly: "You don't have to worry about me, just study hard, Dad is here for everything else!" ”
My tears burst like a, and my voice choked: "Dad, I know you want me to stay away from Bai Zimo and live a normal life, but I can't do it!" It really can't be done! ”
But my adoptive father turned his head and did not dare to look at me, but asked in a low voice, "What will you do if he never wakes up again?" ”
