Chapter 395 Reasoning Notes 9: The Legend of the Lizard God (3)
It seems to be a quiet and peaceful night, but it is destined that something unsettling will happen.

The wall lamps in the corridors of the villa barely radiate faint light, trying to expand their domain in the dark night.The whole villa is as silent as a relic, only the sound of the minute and second hands of the antique wall clock placed in the hall can be heard in a regular manner. The time is about to reach 12 o'clock, and the movement of the wall clock every second is like doing the final countdown.

When the hands of the hour, minute, and second are completely overlapped, every time the pendulum shakes, there will be a "bang bang bang!" sound, which resounds continuously in the hall, dispelling the heavy silence.

Like, who is singing a lonely and lonely funeral song.

There was no movement in the villa, and the people in the house had already gotten used to it or were already asleep.

After the bell stopped, the villa returned to its original silence.

But at this time, a sneaky black figure quietly appeared from a certain corner of the hall, probed his head and looked around, and after confirming that there was no problem, he opened the door sneakily and walked out.Under the bright moonlight, he vaguely saw a small thing in his hand, and the little thing was moving restlessly, trying to escape from his clutches.

He quickly moved the steps under his feet, and went straight to his destination with ease.

After a while, he appeared in a room.This place is gloomy and damp, and you can't see your fingers, filled with darkness.The black shadow turned on the flashlight in his hand, and it immediately emitted a faint light.That's just a small aperture that doesn't completely drive out the darkness.

The black shadow shines on the surroundings of the room, the circle of light moves rapidly on the wall and the ground, and suddenly, it stops suddenly.

Under the strong light of the flashlight, there was a figure crawling on the ground in the corner of the room, like a reptile.It was very afraid of light, shrank its body suddenly, and made the sound of dragging the iron chain, which was extremely loud and piercing in such a quiet night.

The darkness is like a thick layer of fog, making everything invisible and impenetrable.

At this time, a pair of gemstones emitting green light appeared in the darkness. If you don't look carefully, you will not notice that there is a reptile crawling on the ground, and its eyes are emitting green light.He could only hear his sinister laugh coming from behind the flashlight, saying, "Are you okay? You must be hungry."

Facing the figure huddled in the corner, he shook the little thing in his hand.

It was a rabbit.More precisely, food.

The sound of iron chains colliding with each other immediately sounded in the corner.

It's hungry.The arrival of food excites him.

After that, it kept swallowing saliva and made a sound of "gudu, gudu...".As you can imagine, it has not eaten for a long time.

"Hee hee." He smiled smugly. "Listen to me obediently, and you will be able to fill your stomach."

It showed a surrendered expression, staring at the food in front of it, and would pounce on it and tear it to shreds at any time.

Probably because of a premonition before death, the rabbit in his hand became more restless, trying to break free from the shackles of death.But this trivial struggle is doomed to fruitlessness.

He threw the rabbit over.The creature crawling on the ground like a lizard rushed forward.

Click! ——The sound of the rabbit's throat being bitten off in the dark was so clear and piercing.

The aroma of blood began to permeate.

Next, there is the sound of swallowing whole, like a tragic and wonderful movement.

And he, standing by the side all the time, watched all this indifferently, with a sly smile quietly floating on the corner of his mouth.Under his armpit was a black notebook.It contains the darkest and ugliest wisdom in the world.

"Lizard God." With an extremely sinister look in his eyes, he whispered to the creature lying on the ground and eating rabbits, which was the name he gave it, "Leave your cage and let those humans be yours!" food!"

After finishing speaking, he let out a triumphant and arrogant laugh from his heart: "Hey hey!"

Laughter floated far, far away, until the dark sky.

In the calm and breezy campus, Ding Lihan was sitting in the studio during self-study class.

An easel stands in front of him.

The watercolor brushes are swimming freely on the drawing paper, outlining a beautiful girl with bare back.

She has long black hair that shines like a waterfall, flowing to her chest, and occasionally a strand of hair slips out restlessly, her slightly side face is half covered, her soft eyes under the eyelashes are looking into the distance, and she has a straight nose bridge Below are lips like rose petals.The warm sunlight shines on the drawing paper, giving people the illusion that she is an angel appearing in front of her eyes.The most special thing is that her back, which is skillfully covered by a wisp of blue hair, is close to the right shoulder, revealing a small beautiful light red birthmark.

Ding Lihan remembered the girl said that this was her birthmark.

When recalling the past, the girl hesitated to speak, as if she had many thoughts and secrets hidden in her heart.

Oh, by the way, her birthday is coming soon, right?Thinking of this, Ding Lihan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, showing a smile, and continued to dance with the paintbrush in his hand.

Suddenly at this time, a figure walked in from the door of the classroom.

Looking up, Ding Lihan put down the paintbrush in his hand and said, "Ah, teacher."

"Ding Lihan, you're here." The one who walked in was the art teacher in charge of teaching painting.He is slender, with a handsome face and deep eyes, showing talent and self-cultivation.

His name is Xie Xiuzhe, a talented student who graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts. He started teaching at Xiangyun High School two years ago. He is nearly 40 years old now, but he is well maintained, like a young man who has just passed 30 years old.

Seeing the teacher come in, Ding Lihan picked up the canvas and covered the painting with the bare back calmly.He didn't want others to see the content of the painting, because the girl once said that she didn't want others to see the painting.

This is a secret between her and him.

"Is your painting not finished yet?" Xie Xiuzhe chuckled.He has always known the existence of this painting, but Ding Lihan never showed it to him.Presumably, that painting hides the secret of puberty.

The youth of those years is the national flag flying on the playground, the camphor tree blooming in summer, and the notes on the desk, which are deeply and shallowly stored in everyone's memory.

Everyone misses their youth.Everyone knows: Time is a river that cannot be flowed upstream.

Youth is always left in the far upstream.

When did Xie Xiuzhe not have the secret of youth?There is also an unspoken secret in his heart.

Remember that year...

Thinking of this, an old picture suddenly flashed in his mind, as yellow as the paper of an old book.

Many, many years ago, he and his sweetheart spent a beautiful and romantic time in that summer.At that time, he was in charge of painting and the girl was a model.They are on the edge of the lush green forest, overlooking the endless fields.The summer sun penetrates the leaves, and the fine spots of light are splashed everywhere on the horizon.

However, time has passed and things have passed for nearly 20 years, and that memory is like a yellowed photo in an album.Every time Xie Xiuzhe recalled that good time, the corner of Xie Xiuzhe's mouth would involuntarily raise a sweet smile, but later, the smile gradually became bitter and helpless.

Time is like the sand in an hourglass, if you can't grasp it, there will only be sadness.

well.Xie Xiuzhe sighed softly in his heart, and began to roll up his sleeves to organize the messy paints and brushes.Every time the students draw, they always make a mess, and as the teacher in charge, he has long been used to it.While putting the paint box back on the shelf, he said, "Ding Lihan, your grades in the midterm exam have regressed this time. Drawing is important, but you must study hard."

"I will. Teacher." Ding Lihan was a little embarrassed.

Because I have been too focused on this painting recently, I am a little absent-minded in studying.Even the head teacher criticized him.

Next time, he must pass the exam.Ding Lihan secretly made up his mind.Next time, he will surpass Mikaka who is No.1 in the total exam.

"Oh, that's right, teacher." Ding Lihan suddenly remembered something, and stopped the teacher.

"Huh?" Xie Xiuzhe stopped what he was doing and looked back.

Ding Lihan said, "Have you heard of the legend of the Lizard God?"

At that moment, for some reason, Xie Xiuzhe's body movements seemed to stop suddenly, and his body shivered involuntarily.His face showed panic, panic and fear, these dark emotions were like worms, which suddenly penetrated deep into the skin and disappeared.He tried his best to calm himself down, but his face was as calm as a lake, but his heart was surging like a sea, hiding rocks.

He remembered, of course he remembered, the legend about the lizard god that took away his sweetheart...

For so many years, he has been trying to smooth this scar on his soul.

I thought it was scabbed, so it didn't hurt.

However, today, his students actually mentioned this taboo topic again.

"You...you..." Xie Xiuzhe shook his head in disbelief, his lips and body trembling involuntarily.Fear infects the whole body like a virus.Accidentally, the paintbrush in his hand was scattered all over the floor.

Where did you hear this rumor?Xie Xiuzhe felt a little confused, because the legend about the lizard god only existed in that place.

When did this terrible legend appear in this city?
"Teacher, are you okay?" Ding Lihan asked with concern.

He felt that the teacher's reaction was obviously a little unusual.

"No, I'm fine." Xie Xiuzhe took a breath and finally calmed down.Pretending to be calm, he picked up the paintbrush on the ground, put it back, and asked casually, "Why did you suddenly ask about the Lizard God?"

Ding Lihan said eloquently: "Oh, this has been circulating in school recently. I don't know the source of this legend."

Why does the legend of the lizard god spread in Xiangyun High School?Xie Xiuzhe thought to himself.
