"Why isn't this child awake?" My mother's anxious voice came to my ears.
"Don't worry, didn't the goddess say you'll wake up soon?" my father's voice rang.
"I'm not in a hurry. I've been sleeping all day and all night." My mother said again.
"Don't worry, don't worry." My dad comforted me in a low voice, but there was a hint of worry in his voice.
I moved my eyelids hard, and then slowly opened my eyes, only to find that I had returned to the old Taoist priest's house.
"Dad, Mom." I opened my mouth, but found that my voice was hoarse.
"Yiyi, you're awake." My mother was so excited that she burst into tears.
"Mom, don't cry." I wanted to raise my hands, but found that my whole body was extremely weak, and my hands and feet felt a little weak.
"Okay, don't cry, don't cry." My mother nodded sharply.
"What's wrong with me?" I opened my mouth and looked at my mother, remembering that I was not in the Demon Suppression Tower before, so why did I suddenly come back here.
"You're fine, you just got poisoned accidentally." My mother choked with sobs and spoke.
"Poisoned?" I was slightly surprised.
Could it be that Bai Haotian bit me and I was poisoned by snake venom?
Without saying a word, my mother continued:
"The goddess has detoxified you, and you will be fine soon."
I moved my limp body a little, but fortunately I could still feel it.
"Mom, how did we get back here?" I asked curiously.
"What are you still talking about? Your dad and I were worried last night and planned to sneak to the Snake Temple to look for you.
Unexpectedly, when we opened the door, we found him fainting at the door of the Taoist priest's house, which frightened us all." When I heard my mother's words, I felt that they sounded familiar.
Isn't this the conversation I had before when I woke up from the Snake Temple?
I immediately realized something was wrong.
"Mom, how did I get poisoned?" I looked up at my mother.
My mother shook her head and said, "I don't know either. When your father and I found you, your face was frighteningly pale. Fortunately, the goddess appeared in time, otherwise" my mother paused and burst into tears.
Stream below.
"Okay, isn't this kid awake already?" My dad reached out and patted my mom's back.
How could this happen?
I was a little confused as to whether everything that happened before was a dream or reality.
I clearly remember the Demon Suppression Tower, but why did it suddenly become different?
However, it's good that I'm alive right now.
At this moment, I actually have some lingering fears in my heart.
"Yiyi, you, what happened to you at the Snake Temple last night? Why did the Snake Temple collapse?" My mother looked at me with a worried look.
"I, I don't know either." I shook my head slightly and reached out to touch my chest where I was stabbed.
It actually hurt a little, so I subconsciously took my hand back.
This made me realize that everything that happened in the Demon Suppression Tower was real.
Could it be that Bai Haotian erased their memories?
I think this is very likely.
"It's okay." My mother secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mom, where is the goddess?" I suddenly wanted to see the goddess and wanted to see if she knew anything?
I was indeed injured at that time, and the pain is still fresh in my memory to this day. Before my mother could finish her words, the door was pushed open.
I saw the goddess slowly walking in from the outside. The moment their eyes met, a strange look flashed under the goddess's eyes.
The goddess quickly recovered and asked coldly: "Are you awake?"
"Yeah." I nodded lightly.
"You all should go out first. I have something to say to this little girl." The goddess motioned to my parents to leave.
"Okay." My parents nodded in agreement extremely obediently.
After my parents left, without waiting for the goddess to speak, I couldn't wait to look at the goddess and said: "Goddess, what is going on? How did I come back? Where is Bai Haotian? Where have the others gone?"
Faced with all my questions, the goddess just looked at me lightly, with a hint of anger in her eyes, which scared me to the core.
The way she looked at me was very strange, as if she was looking at a heinous person.
After the goddess paused for a moment, her expression returned to its original state, and then she said coldly:
"Since you are fine, leave here quickly. This is not the place you should stay."
"Ah?" I heard that the goddess meant to drive me away.
She didn't have this attitude towards me before.
I thought to myself that I didn't seem to have offended the goddess.
"You must leave the village before dark." As she said this, the goddess turned around and walked out.
"Goddess, please wait a moment." I hurriedly struggled to sit up from the bed and said: "What happened? I clearly remember that I was in the Demon Suppression Tower, how could I come back here? And my parents don't seem to have any knowledge at all.
I don’t remember what happened recently, what’s going on?”
I threw out all the doubts in my mind.
"Don't ask anything. I don't know anything. All the money the village has owed you over the years will be paid back to you once and for all. Once you leave, never come back again." As she said this, the goddess turned around and left.
Leave quickly.
"Goddess." I shouted again.
The goddess paused, then slowly turned to look at me and said, "If you want to know, you can ask Mr. Snake if you have the chance."
"Ask Bai Haotian?" I immediately realized that this matter had something to do with him.
"Then" I raised my head and was about to ask where Bai Haotian was, but the goddess had already left.
"What on earth is going on?" I looked at the empty doorway with some confusion.
What does it mean to pay it back in one go?
What does the goddess mean by this?
In the afternoon, my parents packed their things and said they were going back.
I asked my parents if everything about grandpa had been settled?
My mother said that everything has been taken care of. My father has to go to work tomorrow, so I have to go back quickly.
When I heard this, I felt more and more that something was wrong.
Didn't they say before that my grandfather's grave had become a snake's nest and that he had to choose a new burial date?
Why has this hassle been dealt with already?
"Mom, is my grandfather's grave okay?" I asked tentatively.
"If there are any questions, the sacrifice has been completed." My mother responded to me while packing her things.
"." I didn't continue. It seemed that I had to ask Bai Haotian to clarify all these questions.
But where did Bai Haotian go?
I quickly ran to the window, opened it, and looked at where Bai Haotian was standing.
Nothing.
Where are people?
I was talking to myself.
"Yiyi, what are you looking at? Everything has been packed up. Let's go quickly, otherwise we will be late and miss the bus." My mother reminded me.
"Okay." I glanced outside the window again, then turned around and walked over.
"Let's go and say goodbye to the Taoist priest."
My mother handed my handbag into my hand.
"Yes." I nodded. Although I felt a little reluctant in my heart, I still followed my parents out obediently.
