I suddenly said excitedly: "Well, old gentleman, can you tell me?"
My mother was also holding my hand nervously. Because of her nervousness, her palms were all sweaty.
I held her hand and didn't dare to let go.
"Girl, don't you recognize me?" Suddenly the little old man reached out and took off the hat on his head.
I was stunned.
This... this seems to be getting more and more familiar the more I look at it.
There is also this familiar title, as if I have seen it somewhere before.
My mother turned to look at me with a confused look on her face.
I shook my head helplessly, saying that I really couldn’t remember what had happened.
Seeing that I couldn't remember it for a while, the little old man suddenly spoke again: "What? You don't want to know what happened to your grandfather back then?"
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, I immediately realized that the thin old man in front of me turned out to be the expert my dad had been looking for.
But why did he become like this?
Remember half a month ago, he wasn't like this.
"You...you...are you really that immortal old man from before?" I said with some compliments.
There is no other way. It is always right to call the other party "Fairy Grandpa".
After all, I still have to ask for help from others.
"Hehehe, hehehe." Sure enough, the little old man burst into laughter immediately.
"You girl's mouth is quite sweet."
"Yiyi, who is this?" My mother asked me inexplicably.
"Mom, isn't this the expert you and Dad were looking for before?" I directly gave my mother a look.
"What?" My mother was also stunned for a while, then quickly looked at the thin old man in front of her, and said incredulously:
"This...how is this possible? The expert before was not like this."
"The person I met with you before is indeed not me." The little old man spoke.
"Ah?" My mother and I both looked surprised.
"I knew you were coming before, so I had already arranged for someone to wait for you here and then deliver those things to you." The little old man explained.
"Then why didn't you want to see us in the first place?" My mother couldn't help but ask.
"Because of her." The little old man pointed at me.
"Because of me?" I opened my mouth subconsciously. What does this have to do with me?
"That's right." The little old man nodded and continued: "With your current status, I can't see you again, otherwise I will definitely be retaliated against."
As soon as I heard it, I immediately understood what the other person meant.
Now that I am Mrs. Snake Lord, it must be because of Bai Haotian that he dare not see me.
After all, my coming to see him means that I will go against Bai Haotian.
I'm afraid it's really not easy to deal with a snake king like Bai Haotian.
"Identity? What identity?" My mother immediately exclaimed.
My mother still doesn't know anything about what happened between me and Bai Haotian, so it's normal that she doesn't know something about it.
"Mom, I don't have any identity. Isn't it just what you said before that I was targeted by a snake?" I directly changed the topic and didn't want to continue talking.
Especially now that I am entangled with a snake spirit and still have a nest of baby snakes in my belly, I don't dare to risk letting my mother know.
Otherwise, my mother will definitely take me to the hospital for an abortion. If Bai Haotian is angered by then, our family will really be in disaster.
So, it's better not to let her know anything.
"Really?" My mother looked at the little old man in disbelief.
"Hehehe" the little old man chuckled, neither admitting nor denying.
However, the meaning behind this smile is very clear to me.
"Um, fairy grandfather, how did you become like this? When I saw you before, you were not like this." I couldn't help but speak.
The smile on the little old man's face froze instantly, and it felt as if my words hit his Achilles heel.
"What...what happened?" I asked cautiously.
Intuitively, this matter is not simple.
"Hey!" The little old man sighed heavily, "This is all retribution. My retribution has come."
My mother and I looked at each other and didn't seem to understand the meaning of this sentence.
Seeing this, the little old man explained: "I told you a little bit about your grandfather before, so...so."
The old man paused and looked at the position behind me with some fear, his expression changing slightly.
At this time, I also clearly felt a sudden coldness behind me. I turned my head sharply and saw that Bai Haotian was standing behind me.
At this time, there was a hint of murderous intent under his dark green eyes, which made the old man shudder in fear.
Why did he come with you?
I stood up suddenly and stood face to face with him.
"Yiyi, what are you doing?" My mother stood up nervously in response to my sudden weird movements.
"Mom, it's okay. I suddenly have an urgent need to urinate and want to go to a toilet over there." I pointed to a simple temporary toilet not far away.
"Go to the bathroom? Let me go with you." My mother said and pulled me over.
"Mom, no need, I can go by myself." I shook my head.
"It's okay, I'll stay with you." My mother said worriedly.
"Mom, it's only a few steps away, so that's not enough." I curled my lips pretending to be helpless.
"Ahem, cough, cough," the old man coughed twice on purpose and said, "Just let her go by herself, it's not far."
As he spoke, the old man couldn't help but raise his head and glance at Bai Haotian who was standing in front of me.
I know that he can also see Bai Haotian.
Bai Haotian didn't pay attention to him. Instead, he kept staring at me, which made me a little flustered.
"Mom, just wait for me here. I'll be back soon." I said that before my mother could speak, I reached out and grabbed Bai Haotian's hand and ran quickly towards the toilet.
"Sit down, she will be fine." The old man said and motioned for my mother to sit down.
Although my mother was worried, she still sat down obediently.
At this time, I pulled Bai Haotian and quickly went around to the back of the toilet.
The smell was so overpowering that I smelled it just ten steps away. Not to mention it made me sick.
I couldn't help but retched twice.
"Follow me." Bai Haotian suddenly grabbed my wrist with his backhand and walked quickly to the other side.
Soon, we arrived at the edge of a cliff.
The scenery here is pretty good. When you look at it from here, you can feel like you are "seeing all the mountains at a glance".
"Is...did you do it?" I still couldn't hold it back and asked directly.
"Are you referring to the old man or your father?" Bai Haotian asked knowingly.
I just rolled my eyes at him and said, "That little old man."
Bai Haotian pursed his lips slightly and said calmly: "Since he can't control his own mouth, I can only control it for him."
"You, what did you do to him?" I trembled slightly in my heart.
I didn't expect Bai Haotian to be so cruel to people, almost torturing them until they only had half their lives left.
