Chapter 0030 Say You Are Willing
He Gu's words were indeed not an exaggeration. The itchiness caused by the snake venom today was indeed much stronger than before.
I curled up under the faucet beside the house, letting the cold water pour down my head. I looked at He Gu with gloomy eyes and shook my head: "I don't want to die."
The "common people" in He Gu's eyes do not include me. In their eyes, I am a scourge.
But I didn’t want to die. My dad promised to take me traveling after the college entrance examination, and my mom promised to take me to the beach and let me eat as much seafood as I wanted.
Zhang Hanzhu and I were thinking that after the college entrance examination, we would stay up late to watch TV series and read novels and have fun like crazy.
After going to college, when our parents are not around, we can let loose and have fun, wear clothes that we are not allowed to wear normally, eat super spicy barbecue, and drink two cups of milk tea in one breath...
The falling water slid in front of my eyes along with my hair. I looked at the mahogany nail in He Gu's hand and said firmly, "If you see that I can't hold on any longer and run over there, you can nail me to death."
He Gu's eyes sparkled, and he sat cross-legged under the eaves, really looking at me.
Water flowed down my ears, and amid the sound of the rushing water, the calling voice became clearer and clearer.
The more cold water poured on me, perhaps out of self-protection, the hotter I felt inside.
The black snake jade bracelet on his wrist turned, and Mo Xiu stood next to the faucet, looking at me with serious eyes, but did not speak.
Qin Mipo is burning mugwort again. Even through the water, I can smell the pungent smell of the mugwort, and my throat seems to be on fire.
I opened my mouth slightly and poured cold water down my throat, but it didn't help, it just made me hotter...
The tongue instinctively wants to stick out, and the squatting legs seem to want to twist only.
When He Gu saw me move, his eyes like needles looked at me.
I bit the tip of my tongue tightly, reached my hands over my head, and held the faucet tightly.
No matter what, I have to make it through tonight, at least until...
I suddenly didn’t know how long I could hold on.
Suddenly something in my heart dissipated, and the voice calling me in my ear became clearer and clearer, like countless snakes hissing.
He opened his mouth and took a deep breath, a groan escaping from his mouth.
I bit the tip of my tongue hard, and the fishy-sweet taste spread in my mouth. The pain made me sober for a moment.
Then a slightly cool hand pinched my cheeks, and Mo Xiu's handsome face seemed to be as ink-stained as his name: "Open your mouth!"
I gritted my teeth and rolled it on the tip of my tongue.
If I am not sober, I am afraid that as soon as I open my mouth, I will make that sound again.
"Long Ling!" Mo Xiu's eyes, which had been calm all the time, seemed to be filled with anger. He pinched my cheeks with one hand and stretched a finger directly into my body.
His fingers were as hard as jade and they pried my teeth open.
The bright red blood flowed down his hand and was instantly washed away by the water.
Mo Xiu seemed to sigh deeply, hugged me, turned around and walked out.
Mo Xiu's body felt slightly cold. It wasn't as cold as water, but it made me feel more comfortable than cold water and could suppress my restlessness.
I couldn't help but stick close to Mo Xiu, thinking back to the first night when the snake poison took effect. It seemed to be this kind of suitable coolness that hugged me tightly.
"Watch this place." Mo Xiu galloped against the wind.
I vaguely knew that Mo Xiu might be very powerful. I didn't try my best in the Huilong Village matter, but I didn't expect him to be so powerful.
After a while, Mo Xiu brought me to a cave. He carried me in . At the side of the cave, a huge stone ball rolled by and sealed the entrance.
He stretched out his hand slightly, and a little white light flashed across the wall of the cave, illuminating the cave slightly white.
"Mo Xiu..." My body instinctively made me stick close to Mo Xiu, but there was still some consciousness left in my mind and I wanted to push him away.
Mo Xiu just had a sullen face and carried me towards the center of the cave. At the innermost part of the cave, there was actually a pool of water, formed by water flowing out from cracks in the rocks.
The water in Laotan is cold and has a strong yin energy.
Mo Xiuyi put me in. The icy cold water made me shiver instantly, but the dryness also dissipated a lot.
"This is... my old cave. You can soak in the cold pond for a while first." Mo Xiu looked at me with serious eyes and pulled my arm.
The place where the snake bit me has turned blue and swollen .
Pain flashed in Mo Xiu's eyes, and he touched his fingers: "I forgot, you are just..."
I don’t have a present or a past!
What Mo Xiu wanted to talk about was the person from before!
I quickly retracted my hand. Mo Xiu seemed to realize that he had said something wrong. He sat down on a rock beside the pool and looked at a large rock next to him that he didn't know whether it had been flattened by the water or worn away.
I pulled a razor from my trouser pocket and made a cross on the swollen area.
Perhaps it was because it was so swollen that the blade passed by without causing any pain at all.
Mo Xiu suddenly turned his head to look at me, his eyes flickering. He seemed to take a slight breath, then slowly turned his head away.
"This snake venom is not fatal." I was afraid of dirtying the pond, so I lay on a rock and squeezed the pus and blood out.
The blood was black and smelled fishy, spreading slightly in the air.
Mo Xiu's tense back seemed to move, but he still didn't turn around.
I first squeezed out the blood from the wound, then rubbed it from the shoulder down the arm, forcing out the poisonous blood bit by bit.
Looking at Mo Xiu's figure, I felt a sudden pain in my heart for some reason.
"Can you turn into that black snake?" I retracted my eyes and watched the dark red blood flow out of the wound, winding down my arm and then dripping on my fingertips.
Mo Xiu turned around when he heard the voice and looked at me in confusion.
"Just like you were in my dreams before..." I took a deep breath and watched drops of dark red blood drip onto the ground.
Turning his head to look at Mo Xiu: "Is it okay?"
"Weren't you very afraid of that black snake before?" Mo Xiu's eyes flashed with surprise.
I clenched my fist to let the blood flow back, then stroked downwards little by little to squeeze out the blood.
The black snake was in my dream, growing up with me, silent and speechless, but as long as it was there, I knew that this was my dream.
But Mo Xiu...
From the moment he turned into a human being, he was no longer for me.
He was just doing it for the person in his memory...
The only sounds in the cave were the sound of spring water flowing into the pool and my breathing.
Mo Xiu seemed to understand something, and said in a deep voice: "Long Ling, what are you afraid of? Is it that marrying me is more difficult for you to accept than being sacrificed in a snake coffin?"
"Actually, marrying you and being sacrificed in a snake coffin are almost the same to me." I saw the color of the flowing blood fade.
Then he retracted his hand back into the water: "I offered sacrifice to the snake coffin because I am the person in your memory. I married you because I might be that person."
"This is not me, so what's the difference between me and being dead?" I dropped my hand and curled the other hand on the stone.
I laid my groggy head on it and looked at Mo Xiu: "If I am not the person in your memory, would you not appear in my dreams? Would you not have protected me all these years?"
"Why do we have to distinguish it so clearly?" Mo Xiu's voice was full of confusion.
I chuckled, but as I laughed, I felt a little dizzy: "I'm actually quite envious of her. You and Liu Longting both remember her. From what you said, she must be a very good person."
"She is not a good person." Mo Xiu said in a deep voice, looking at me, "She is a very powerful person. Because of her, she has the snake coffin..."
I suddenly raised my eyes and looked at Mo Xiu: "So the snake coffin was built because of her?"
"Are you trying to trick me?" Mo Xiu came closer and stared at me: "Long Ling, don't think I..."
There was an unprecedented coldness in Mo Xiu's eyes, which made my heart shiver.
I took back my hand that was resting on the stone and slowly sank into the water: "Then do you have a way to deal with the snake coffin?"
Mo Xiu's strength is obviously very strong, at least stronger than Liu Longting's, otherwise Liu Longting would not take action no matter where he is.
Long Xia came out of the snake coffin and seemed a little afraid of Mo Xiu.
"Yes." Mo Xiu's body fell down limply like a snake.
He laid his black robe flat on the ground, and slowly leaned his head in front of me, and said in a deep and hoarse voice: "Long Ling, I said, as long as you marry me, I can help you solve any problem?"
His voice was as tempting as a snake. I looked into his eyes, and my head, which had finally cleared up, seemed a little groggy.
The bloody and sweet smell slowly spread in the air, but it didn't seem to be the smell of blood. It was a bit like freshly opened box of strawberries, or freshly cut watermelon in summer, with a light and sweet fragrance that made people's mouths water.
Mo Xiu's eyes were heavy, and his handsome face was filled with a nervous yet long-planned smile: "Long Ling, will you marry me?"
Something seemed to surge in my throat, and my head began to feel dizzy. My hands involuntarily hooked around Mo Xiu's neck, and my body, which was soaked in the water, slowly moved over.
Mo Xiu put his arm around my waist, turned his legs and entered the pool of water, his hand gently pressing on my waist.
Slowly he came to my lips and kissed them: "Long Ling, say you are willing."
