Snake Tangled Three Dreams

Chapter 23 Flower Snake Warning
He said before that he made me ready to pay off my debts with him for the rest of my life.

But he is a man after all, and there will always be a day when he loses his freshness to me.

Now he can see that he is protecting me in this relationship, but when he loses interest, what will he do?
Liu Wangzhi was silent for a while, then moved his thin lips to the back of my neck and kissed me, his low and mellow voice was a bit lazy: "Are you scared?"

My back stiffened, and I turned my back to him and said calmly: "Although I don't know what you have to do with the things in the back mountain, you have already made an agreement, haven't you?"

I still said it in front of my face, and when I said it, it was neither salty nor bland, like discussing how to deal with unwanted rag dolls.

The human being behind me didn't react at all, the hand on my waist slid to my leg, and the tip of his nose rubbed against my shoulder: "I can't be sure what will happen in the future, but as long as I want, I can do whatever I want decision."

He was right, as long as he wanted to, pester me, or let me go, or send me to those things, it was all in his mind.

I bit my lip and said nothing, the marks on my teeth turned white and were about to ooze blood, but my body was suddenly turned around, and I was wrapped into a bosom exuding the fragrance of plants and trees.

Liu Wangzhi hugged me, and patted my back lightly, his deep voice fell on his ears, so soft that there was a moment of hallucinatory tenderness, "Don't worry, I won't give you to them."

"never."

I froze for a moment, opened my mouth but couldn't make a sound, as if it was stuck in my throat.

He is a snake after all, so how much truth is there if he doesn't say a man's words, and how credible is the snake's guarantee?

Or, can you believe it?
"Asleep?" Seeing that I hadn't moved for a long time, Liu Wangzhi pulled me away a little, and looked at me with lowered eyes.

I swallowed a mouthful of bitter saliva, raised my head to look into his eyes, and slid to my lips, with some hesitation: "Liu Wangzhi... can I ask you something? Those things started to be typed while you were away." Mengyue's attention, I would like to ask you to help the Bai family and the village to tide over this difficulty."

"In the future, whether you want the Bai family to return what they owe you, or whether you want me to pay off the debt with you all my life, I promise you."

"And willingly, without complaint or regret."

I'm not sure how long Liu Wangzhi's guarantee will last, but at present he is still interested in me, so I have to seize this opportunity and let him play his role.

Anyway, I was born as a snake girl, and I couldn’t hide or escape, and I never thought that I had other futures.

Then why not take advantage of the present and find a way to make him my weapon, so as to quell the catastrophe brought about by me.

Liu Wangzhi looked at me silently for a long time, his eyes were like a pool of water, he wrapped his fingertips around my hair, and said casually: "Your father gave me poisonous wine, you can think about it." , and want me to help you protect the Bai family."

I pursed my lips, moved my body, and moved a little closer to him, staring at him with moist eyes: "I will let him apologize to you, so, are you willing?"

Liu Wangzhi pondered for a moment, pinched my earlobe with his fingertips, and said calmly: "Apologizing also depends on sincerity, unless you do three prostrations and nine kowtows, and burn incense in the Snake Cave in the back mountain for three days, I can promise you, think about it."

Originally, the Bai family owed him, but judging from my father's later behavior, this request is not particularly excessive.

I just don’t know if my dad would agree to it.

Now he is still angry, and he is also worried that Liu Zhu will retaliate against him in his anger, I have to go back and persuade him, maybe he can let go of the suspicion.

"Bai Tingyue." Liu Wangzhi suddenly called my name, his deep eyes fell on my face, "Bai family, is it worth it for you?"

I was stunned, a little dazed: "I don't know." After a pause, I added, "But at least this way, I can feel that I have roots."

People have to have some thoughts and roots when they live, so that they can care about it and have the meaning of living.

Liu Wangzhi didn't speak any more, just hugged me quietly until I fell asleep.

The next day he sent me back to the village, let me down at the exit of the back mountain, still didn't say anything, turned into a puff of white smoke and left.

It was close to noon when I got home, everyone in the family was busy with the chores of their daily lives, and no one noticed that I was away all night.

After lunch, I went to find Granny Mei again, but unfortunately she still didn't come back. I asked a few of her neighbors, and they all said that they hadn't seen her for several days.

I was disappointed and returned. On the way back, I found that there were a lot of snakes in the village for no reason. Pass.

"Die, where are there so many snakes!"

"That's right, just be careful, maybe something will happen in the village again."

"Shh, it's that snake girl, hurry up and go away."

The two women passing by carefully avoided the snake. Seeing me approaching, they quickly pulled each other, avoided me like avoiding these snakes, and ran home in a hurry.

I frowned and continued walking, when suddenly a flower snake with a thick wrist hung upside down from the tree, and caught off guard and blocked my way.

I was so frightened that I backed away abruptly, but saw the snake spit out a snake letter and said something human: "Snake girl, you have someone to protect you, and you can escape this catastrophe, but they can't. I advise you Stop meddling in your own business, and run with that old woman."

I seem to have seen this snake somewhere before. After thinking about it carefully, I suddenly remembered that it was the flower snake that ran to my house to hire a snake bead in its mouth!
Seeing that the snake climbed up the treetop and seemed about to leave, I didn't care about fear, and summoned up the courage to stop it loudly: "Don't go! Tell me who sent you here, what are you planning, and what are you going to do?" How many people are willing to give up?"

The flower snake was entangled in the treetops, staring at me with sharp vertical eyes, as if sneering: "It's early, everything has just begun. No one in the village can escape. If you don't leave, just wait and see."

The flower snake snaked its body, nimbly climbed up the eaves and swam away, leaving me alone in a panic.

I kept thinking about the snake's warning on the way, especially the sentence to run with my mother-in-law.

What does this mean, could it be that the mother-in-law had already predicted that the village would be doomed, so she had already left first to seek refuge in another place?
But the mother-in-law doesn't seem like someone who would abandon the villagers. She hasn't left for so many years. How could she suddenly leave without saying goodbye?

Back home full of thoughts, I saw Mengyue passing by with a small sachet wearing a red string, my eyes followed the things in her hand, and subconsciously called her: "Mengyue, have you found your amulet?"

Mengyue looked back at me, frowning annoyedly, "I found it, but the contents inside are empty."

"Empty?" I walked over and looked down into her hand, "What was in it?"

"I don't know, my mother sewed the thread to death, I haven't opened it." Mengyue stroked the small sachet, as if she felt sorry for it.

I thought there might be something like a talisman in it. Seeing that she was a little disappointed, I patted her on the shoulder: "It's okay, don't go out at night from now on, it might be safer at home."

Aunt Liu turned into a snake pig and came to my house to look for me before. Liu Wangzhi said that as long as she doesn't leave the gate of Bai's house, nothing will happen.

In addition, Mengyue ran into evil when she was out of the house that day, and the old lady with paper figurines just stayed in the yard last night. I think they were afraid of Liu Wangzhi, so they didn't dare to enter Bai's house.

Then if Mengyue doesn't go out at night, even if she doesn't have the amulet, she can be more protected.

"Understood." Mengyue responded casually, and turned to leave.

"Wait a minute." I held her back again, "Mengyue, do you still know where the snake pearl went after you had an accident in the back mountain?"
