Snake Tangled Three Dreams

Chapter 61

No way?This is just a child, how could it be this woman's... Mom?

Shock and astonishment quickly filled my eyeballs, and for a moment, I really wondered if there was something wrong with my ears.

I looked at the two people, one big and one small, over and over again. The woman's face had already left obvious signs of age, but this child was slick from head to toe, and his skeleton had the slender and immature appearance of a child who hadn't grown up yet. It seems that they are all children in the growing period, and they don't seem to have any special physique.

I listened to their chatter with a bit of surprise and half-knowledge, and saw that the seemingly elderly woman called Hu Yuzhi "Zuzu", but the young child called Hu Yuzhi "Madam", and Hu Yuzhi Yuzhi was not surprised by this at all, and finally confirmed that the "Mom" that the woman in her thirties called was indeed the seven or eight-year-old girl next to her.

A huge sense of weirdness spreads silently in front of you. The strange mother and daughter in national costumes, and the dimly lit black-tiled turret all make the picture in front of you indescribably mysterious.

I slowly took a breath, and then let it out slowly. There was a penetrating feeling inflated infinitely in my heart. I couldn't imagine what kind of strange family this was.

While Hu Yuzhi was still talking about old times with them, I slightly bent my elbow and touched Liu Wangzhi who was standing beside me.

"Hey, you, did you hear that just now? That woman is calling the little girl next to her..." I seemed to be calm on the surface, but in fact I quietly lowered my voice and squeezed it out from my slightly parted lips. This sentence.

"Well, it's a bit weird." Liu Wangzhi put one hand in his pocket, his gaze was as deep as a pool of water.

"It's more than a little bit, it's just too weird." I carefully restrained my voice, and leaned over to ask again, "Have you seen what's going on, what's going on with that child..."

"This is where the blame lies." Liu Juzhi's face remained calm, but his answer to me was surprising, "She's not a ghost, and she doesn't have anything attached to her body. She's really just a human child."

"How is it possible, that woman is calling her 'Mom'!" I couldn't digest the shock, and I couldn't find a reason to explain this strange phenomenon. brought over.

"Oh, look at my memory, I almost forgot about the distinguished guests." Hu Yuzhi said as she came down the stone steps, her cheongsam wrapped tightly around her waist.

Standing on the other side of Liu Wangzhi, she raised her delicately made-up face and gave him a charming smile: "Mr. Snake, this is where I lived before. I made a contract with this family and promised to keep his family safe for a hundred years. Later, that person sent me to Linxiu Village to guard the seal, and he died of illness not long after. Well, the two above are his daughter and the other is his granddaughter."

As she said that, she waved to the two people above, signaling them to come down, and when the two mother and daughter stood in front of them, she introduced them: "This is the king of the snake clan, come back with me this time, it is a special trip came to find that thing."

The woman put her hand on the little girl's shoulder, looked at us and smiled, and said warmly to both of us in Mandarin, which is not very proficient: "Welcome, if you don't mind, please come to my house first."

My gaze was still on the little girl, she was quietly accompanying the woman, holding the hand on her shoulder with her small hand, her round eyes were clean and pure, completely different from the old and kind expression just now two people.

When I was looking at her, she was looking at Liu Wangzhi, and when she realized that someone was staring at her, she smiled timidly at me, and hid behind the woman embarrassedly.

She looks like an ordinary child now, and because of this, what happened just now is even more weird, and I can't understand it even more.

"No need." Liu Juzhi straightened his back, looked down at the woman lightly, "We are just looking for something, we will leave after we get it."

"This..." The woman saw Liu Wangzhi for the first time, she probably felt uncomfortable with his eyes, she hurriedly turned her face away, looked at Hu Yuzhi and hesitated to speak.

"What's the matter, Ayun?" Hu Yuzhi hugged her jade arms, her brows slightly frowned, "What about that thing? It's not here anymore, is it?"

"Yes, it's still in the ancestral hall." The woman named Ayun was afraid of being misunderstood, and quickly explained to us, "It's just that the old lady of Congzi's family left last night, and the ancestral hall is holding a funeral. It may not be convenient to go now. Why don't you just settle down and rest at my house for one night, and I'll take you to see that thing in the morning tomorrow, is that okay?"

I think A Yun also spoke in a general way, without mentioning what it was.

They all put here to play charades one by one, but I was the only one in the cloud, I don't know what this behavior is, it's really boring.

Liu Wangzhi pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly: "Well, then I'll bother you."

The woman regained her warm smile, said again and again that you are welcome, then led the lively little girl into the house first.

I was not prepared for the sudden decision to stay. When I thought of staying in the same room with this little girl, I felt a little nervous for no reason. I stretched out my hand and tugged on Liu Fangzhi's shirt sleeve, raised my face and whispered: "Liu Fangzhi , do we really want to stay here for one night, can we change to another place?"

Liu Wangzhi saw my uneasiness, raised his hand to rub my hair, and said in a low voice: "Don't be afraid, after a while, just treat her like an ordinary child."

"Is this all right? But I still..." I already know that this is not an ordinary child at all, and now I just look at her and feel nervous, how can I get along with her under the same roof as if nothing happened to ordinary children .

"It's okay, I'm here too." Liu Wangzhi pinched my chin, wiped his lower lip with his fingertips, and rubbed the side of my lips, "Believe in yourself, you are brave enough."

"...I thank you." The snake teased me again about what happened that day, I slapped his hand away, turned around and went to the car to get my luggage.

Liu Xing came to deliver wine this time. After the things were brought up, he refused to stay overnight and left Wujiazhai in his car on the spot.

I saw that he left in such a hurry, and I probably knew that this village was a bit weird. Looking at the rear of the car where he walked away, I suddenly regretted coming here.

I turned back to the turret, only to notice two white lanterns hanging under the eaves outside the door, the lanterns were not lit, if you don't look up, you really can't see clearly.

I have seen that kind of lanterns from other houses before, and I was wondering why I used such an unlucky color. Who knew that when I entered the door, I suddenly saw the little girl squatting on the ground, playing with the lantern in the hand of a person. dolls.

The doll was the ordinary plastic Barbie sold outside, and she was changing the doll with a small skirt, chanting some dialects in her immature child's voice, the voice was too small, and she could barely understand a word.

The dim and pale incandescent lamp fell from the top of the head and shone on the child's thin back. She lowered her head and concentrated on playing with the doll, and the silver flower hairpin on her head reflected sporadic cold light.

I just glanced at this child, and my heart was beating very fast inexplicably, thinking to go back to the room to look for Liu Wangzhi, I hurried past her silently.

The moment he passed by this child, a hoarse and vicissitudes of life suddenly sounded from behind him. At first glance, he sounded like an old lady over seventy years old.

"Meituo, my god, don't walk around. Be careful to be dragged away, eat it."

Hearing this sound, I immediately shuddered all over, the soles of my feet seemed to be stuck, and the blood all over my body seemed to be flowing backwards in a chill.

The small hall by the door was too quiet, only the hands of the clock were "clicking".

I froze and didn't dare to move, knowing very well in my heart that besides me, there is only that weird little girl in this hall...

Cold sweat quickly overflowed from my back, and soon soaked my clothes.

A dim shadow slowly swayed across the sparsely lit ground, and the little girl stood up from the ground and walked slowly to the square wooden table on the right. She put the Barbie doll in her hand on the table and picked it up A dry pipe, with a half-burned white candle, lit up skillfully.

My legs were a bit disorganized, I wanted to walk but I couldn't resist the weakness of my feet, the hand hanging by my side grasped the trouser legs tightly, and even the fingertips were trembling uncontrollably.

"Why, scare you?" The little girl leaned against the wall and looked at me across the table. The cuff of the hand holding the bong slipped down, revealing a dragon and phoenix bracelet usually only worn by children. .

It's so weird, she looked like a little girl before, and even her voice was an immature child's voice, why in the blink of an eye, she turned into an old lady again, smoking a pipe in front of me?

I swallowed hard, my lips trembled slightly, and my mind was almost blank.

The little girl didn't continue talking, she just concentrated on smoking the pipe, the bell on the bracelet rang from time to time with the movement of raising her hand, every time it seemed to ring on my nerves, it was terribly clear.

"Meituo, come, come and sit." Seeing me standing there silently, the little girl casually patted the long bench next to me.

I didn't even dare to turn my face completely away, and when I heard her invite me to sit over, I felt even more terrified.

"No, no... I, I, I'm going back to rest." I stammered, trying to raise my legs and stride forward.

Seeing that I really planned to go upstairs, the little girl stood up from the stool suddenly, threw away the pipe and rushed to me, stretched out her little hand, and grabbed me!
