Chapter 12 Strange Dream(1/2)
I didn't know if I was dead. Anyway, there was nothing but darkness in front of me. I couldn't see or hear anything. The silence around me was terrifying.
But I found that I was able to move. I lowered my head and looked at my collarbone. The wound stopped bleeding, but the pain on my back did not lessen. Doesn’t it mean that you won’t feel pain after you die?
It all seems to be a lie.
I slowly got up and groped for a way, but I couldn't find anything. I stumbled around in the darkness like a blind man.
"Dad, Bai Zimo, where are you? Where are you? There is no one in the dark. I'm scared!" I started shouting, hoping that they would come to me after hearing it.
It's so deserted here. Could it be the legendary hell?
But no one answered me, I was like a forgotten poor guy, walking alone in the darkness.
I don’t know how long it took or how far I walked. Anyway, my legs started to tremble. If I continued walking, I would probably lose these legs.
My back is burning and hurting, probably because the wound is inflamed.
It turns out that people are not dead when they die, they will still feel pain and discomfort.
But how come I wasn’t taken away by the Black and White Wuchang brothers when I died? Didn’t they discover me?
Actually, I don't really want to see Black and White Impermanence. The key is that I'm hungry and haven't eaten since I woke up early. As a result, I was beaten to death and now I'm a hungry ghost.
If you get to the Palace of the King of Hell, you should at least give me something to eat.
I didn't expect that my life would be so miserable, being a ghost and starving.
Just when I was so hungry that I felt dizzy, I suddenly saw a glimmer of light in front of me. Following my biological instinct, I looked for the light and walked over.
However, when I got there, I discovered that it was a river. There was a weak light shining on the river. The riverside was full of red flowers. There was a small boat on the shore. The boatman was sitting there quietly waiting to ferry people across the river.
There is a bridge over the river, which is quite wide. I don’t understand why there are people holding boats there even though there is such a good bridge. Speaking of the cruise ship, I feel that the boat is too shabby, so I guess no one will sit on it.
I think this boatman may be mentally ill.
But here comes the slap in the face, someone actually walked over to take the boat.
I couldn't help but be dumbfounded. The key point was that the boat couldn't move halfway. The people on it were swaying and almost fell into the river.
I think he might have something wrong in his mind, and he would rather take the broken boat than walk on a good bridge.
I almost drowned myself.
It’s really a vast world full of wonders.
I didn't want to pay attention to the situation in the river anymore, and walked to the bridge on my own.
I thought there might be something delicious on the other side of the bridge, but there was nothing here but a red flower, but flowers can't be eaten, right?
Just when I was about to take the first step, a voice came from my ear: "Alian, come back quickly, come back quickly!"
Who, who is calling me? This voice is a bit familiar, as if I have heard it somewhere.
I stopped and thought for a while, then decided to keep walking.
As a result, he shouted again: "Alian, I am Bai Zimo, come back quickly!"
Bai Zimo?
I remember that there seemed to be such a person. Who came from me? I felt that my memory was a little confused. When I was in the dark just now, did I call him by the name Bai Zimo?
I looked back, and there was nothing behind me. Who was this Bai Zimo?
What do you mean by calling me all the time and not showing up?
baffling.
Suddenly a burst of fragrance hit my face, and my stomach growled. I didn't care about it anymore and rushed directly onto the bridge.
At the other end of the bridge, an old lady was stirring something in a big vat with a big spoon, and that's where the fragrance came from.
I couldn't help but swallow my saliva and walked gently to her.
The grandma seemed to have seen through me and directly filled a bowl of soup and handed it to me: "Drink it. If you drink it, your past will have nothing to do with you!"
I took the bowl in a daze and said thank you to her.
When he was about to drink, he found a gap in the bowl and looked at her in confusion.
But she just raised her eyelids and said: "Drink quickly, you will be relieved after drinking!"
I seemed to be bewitched by her. I held the bowl and wanted to drink again, but my hands were restricted and I couldn't bring the soup to my mouth.
Damn it, you are not allowed to drink the hot soup, who has no conscience, come out and let me scold you...
But before I could figure it out, suddenly, the bowl in my hand broke, the soup spilled all over the floor, and the grandma in front of me disappeared in an instant.
I still wanted to open my mouth to curse, but I only felt a heat on my lips, and then something flowed down my throat and into my stomach. After a while, I felt completely comfortable.
"What!" I sat up suddenly and found myself lying on the bed, next to my adoptive father who looked worried and Bai Zimo, who was lowering his head and licking his lips.
In other words, Bai Zimo fed that thing just now with his mouth?
When my adoptive father saw that I was awake, he quickly came over and sat beside my bed to check my pulse.
Bai Zimo just quietly stepped aside and looked at me silently.
I looked around and saw that it was my own home, so I guessed that I might have walked around in front of Naihe Qiao and Po Meng just now and been pulled back from the gate of hell by them.
It's good that you're not dead, there's still a chance.
We must understand why the villagers suddenly became like this.
I rubbed my forehead, looked at my adoptive father in confusion and asked, "Dad, what happened?"
My adoptive father touched my head, looked at me gently and said, "It's okay. You take good care of yourself first and don't worry about anything else!"
How could I not care?
It's going to cost me my life, how can I stay out of it?
"Dad, tell me what's going on? Do you want to scare me to death?"
Seeing me asking, my adoptive father could only sigh: "Alian, the people in Yunjia Village are crazy. They want to remove the birthmark on your body."
"Removing birthmarks?" I quickly pulled off my collar and looked down. The white snake was still on my body, which meant they had not succeeded. "Then how did we escape? Is it you?"
I said the last sentence while looking at Bai Zimo.
But my adoptive father seemed to think it was me telling him, and he quickly shook his head: "It's not me, it's you."
My adoptive father told me that the scene was very chaotic, the ancestral hall suddenly shook, and the villagers collectively fell to the ground, as if they had been poisoned.
I was injured so badly that I fainted, but the next second I suddenly woke up, broke the rope, and freed my adoptive father.
We took advantage of the chaos to return home, and I fell asleep after we came back. It has been three days now.
Seeing my adoptive father's distressed eyes on me, I was also quite depressed. I had a birthmark on my body for more than ten years. Why did someone attack me just after Bai Zimo woke up?
I couldn't help but glare at Bai Zimo, but he was just pretending to be stupid. His clothes were as white as snow and his silver hair was like frost.
"Dad, what's going on now? Does the village chief still want to bring people to kill us?"
Thinking about the scene at that time, I still feel scared.
The adoptive father shook his head: "They haven't moved in the past three days. They probably don't care about us, but I'm worried that they won't give up until they achieve their goal. You should take good care of yourself in the past two days and go to Jiangcheng immediately to avoid the limelight."
"What about you? Will you go to Jiangcheng with me?"
Yunjiacun has no other feelings for me except my adoptive father. If my adoptive father also leaves here, we can never come back.
"If I don't leave, they are just afraid of the snake on your body and won't do anything to me!"
When my adoptive father spoke, his eyes were evasive and he did not dare to look at me.
Why didn't he leave Yunjia Village?
Everyone in this village wants us to die, so what else does he have to commemorate?
Maybe he was afraid that I would ask any more questions, so he immediately said, "I'm going to heat up the porridge for you. You must be very hungry after not eating for the past three days!"
As he spoke, he stood up and walked out.
At this time, Bai Zimo continued to sit next to me, his eyes fell like water, and I seemed to see that his heart and eyes were all about me.
"Alian, no matter what happens, live well, nothing is more important than living!"
I don't know why he said such things. He is a snake, a snake that has lived for an unknown number of years, and I am just an ordinary person. Ordinary people only live for a few decades.
It doesn't matter anymore.
Thinking of what he saw in the ancestral hall, he asked: "What was that white mist that suddenly appeared when my blood was about to run out? I seemed to hear someone talking there, saying that it couldn't be wrong, it must be
What's wrong? What's going on?"
Bai Zimo looked at the wound for me and said: "I didn't see Bai Wu. I was injured at that time and felt in your body that you were about to die. I used my last strength to get on your body and separated you and Yun Yan."
He was rescued, but I don’t know about the rest.”
He just wanted to send me away without knowing anything. I didn't believe his nonsense.
"Really don't know?" I looked at him suspiciously.
But he just lowered his head to apply the medicine for me and responded casually: "I don't know, you should take good care of your injuries. If I hit you, it hurts in my heart!"
