Chapter 0069 What Identity
Mo Xiu tried to touch my collarbone with his fingers again. I tried hard to endure the pain and didn't make a sound.
But he looked at me solemnly, then withdrew his hand and slowly looked at my lower abdomen.
He covered his lower abdomen gently with his backhand like Snake Coffin, but there was worry in his eyes.
I exhaled and whispered, "I will find a way to get rid of it just like I got rid of the snake baby in Long Xia's belly."
What Yu Xinhe said was not without reason, and Gu Fengchun also mentioned that once the snake fetus grows up, it will be the so-called day of the dragon rising in the snake coffin.
If you really have it, it’s better not to keep it…
Mo Xiu blinked, put his arm around me, and slowly put his head on my belly, as if he was feeling or listening to something...
After a long while, he exhaled, slowly sat up, took my hand, and untied the black cloth that was wrapped around me.
I thought of what Qin Mipo and Liu Longting had said, that Mo Xiu must not be allowed to see this, and my hand instinctively retracted.
Mo Xiu raised his eyes and looked at me: "I know you have seen the snake coffin. The scale pattern is the mark he left behind."
I lowered my eyes and watched Mo Xiu sit next to me, holding my hand and gently untying the black cloth.
The black cloth was untied circle by circle, and a circle of black and white snake bracelets slowly appeared.
Mo Xiu stretched out his hand, pinched the snake's body, and lifted it up to take a look.
She looked up at me and said, "Long Ling, give birth to this child. No matter what happens in the future, we will face it together, okay?"
This was the first time that Mo Xiu spoke to me in an equal tone.
In the past, he always used a guiding tone...
"Is it because of the snake fetus, or is it because of something else?" I couldn't help but curl my hands and smiled bitterly: "It may not be the snake fetus."
Mo Xiu took off his black robe and put it on me. When he pulled the collar to cover the scales on my collarbone, his eyes darkened: "Since Snake Coffin has already asked the Gu family to take you to Bashan, it proves that Snake Coffin has already chosen the next place."
"What do you mean?" I looked up in surprise and looked at Mo Xiu: "What do you mean by the next place?"
Mo Xiu pulled up his collar and said, "The snake coffin is not like the scale pattern you saw. That is just a symbol. The real snake coffin is alive, has its own consciousness, and has strange and powerful abilities."
"Huilong Village has been destroyed. He needs to find another place, a place that will truly worship and protect him." Mo Xiu pulled his black robe tight.
"He has become like you." I looked at Mo Xiu with gloomy eyes and whispered, "The clavicle is filled with lovesickness, and every inch of my heart aches. He seems to have feelings for Long Ling..."
Pain flashed across Mo Xiu's face, and he stood up suddenly. He seemed to take a deep breath and said with certainty, "He is not me."
I shook the snake bracelet on my wrist: "Why can't the people of Huilong Village cut off their bloodline?"
Mo Xiu seemed reluctant to mention this and turned his head to look at the fireflies on the cave wall.
After a long while, he said, "The snake coffin can bring people back to life, and the silk snake can enter the body and control everyone. Do you know why those people in Huilong Village died, but no one returned their bodies? They were taken away by someone."
"Why should I ask you to burn the bodies of Chen Quan and his son? That Feng Shui master, Mr. Hu, also has a snake in his body. The little bit of consciousness attached to the snake coffin has already made him a guest of honor in the Wentian Sect." Mo Xiu's voice was heavy.
Sitting next to me, hugging me tightly, he said, "Long Ling, people are greedy. If they can be resurrected from the dead, if they can be immortal, they would be willing to become like Long Xia and Liu Longting."
"But the blood snake collarbone and the bone-penetrating crystal nails, they will become the snake's minions in the snake coffin..." I thought about the bone-penetrating coldness and the heart-piercing pain, and I didn't understand who would be willing to become like that.
"Liu Longting's snake body is dead. Your cousin kept it for eighteen years. Why didn't he burn it?" Mo Xiu's voice was full of sarcasm.
He said in a cold voice: "Long Ling, you are protected too well by Long Qixu, and you don't even know the secret of the snake coffin. How much do you know about people? If the snake coffin was not out of extreme hatred, how could it let all the people in Huilong Village die."
I thought of the wall surrounding Huilong Village and the various forces converging within.
I couldn't help but touch my belly . If I really was pregnant with a snake fetus, what would it be like? What would I do in the future?
Mo Xiu slowly stretched out his hand, placed it on the back of my hand, put his cheek against mine, and whispered, "Long Ling, this is our child. Are you willing to give birth to it?"
There was a hint of hope in his voice, and he sounded cautious.
I looked at Mo Xiu with some confusion: "What will it be like?"
Snake fetus, it sounds scary, it could be a snake, or it could be a monster...
"Your child and mine, Long Ling." Mo Xiu's voice was filled with suppressed excitement, and he whispered, "No matter what, we will take good care of him, okay?"
There was so much expectation in Mo Xiu's tone that I couldn't say no.
He just covered his belly and said, "I have touched the snake coffin. If..."
"The snake coffin is going to be moved to another place recently. Once the people from the Gu family leave, the snake coffin will not come out again for a while." Mo Xiu looked up at me.
With a look of desire on her face, she said, "Take good care of your baby, and leave everything else to me, okay?"
He was not just longing, but even begging. I suddenly realized...
Maybe the child he was thinking about was not his and my, but Long Ling's.
The originally confused mind suddenly became clear.
Whether it is Snake Coffin, Mo Xiu, or Liu Longting, I am just a substitute for "Dragon Spirit".
They all have a clear understanding, but when facing me, they often put their emotions towards Long Ling into their own, and even do not hide it at all.
My role as a substitute is too unsuccessful.
But at least Mo Xiu still has eighteen years of companionship, which makes it easier for me to accept.
I pursed my lips and nodded: "Okay."
Mo Xiu seemed to be ecstatic, hugged me tightly, and called out in a deep and hoarse voice: "Long Ling."
That voice was clearly in my ear, but I didn't know whether he was calling me or that person...
As night falls, Yinyang Pond becomes filled with a deep chill.
Mo Xiu was afraid that the cave was too cold and would hurt my body, so he didn't let me stay here and carried me directly back to Qin Mi's house.
By this time, everyone in the Gu family had left. When the big snake saw us coming back, it immediately slid down from the eaves.
Mo Xiu reached out and touched its head, and the snake immediately swam away.
There were still a few wounds on the snake's body. Seeing my concern, Mo Xiu whispered, "It will find medicine on its own, but it will take some time to recover."
When I entered the house, I saw Qin Mipo applying medicine to Yu Xinhe.
The wound on Yu Xinhe's leg was very deep, but even so, she still drank.
Seeing me coming back, she immediately perked up: "Long Ling, I am in trouble because of you this time, you have to give me a few more bottles of snake wine."
I couldn't help but smile bitterly. Not to mention that my dad sold all the snake wine, even if he didn't, our house was taken away by the Chen family, so how could we still have it?
Mo Xiu didn't seem to like facing outsiders. He tightened his black robe around me and said, "You should have a good rest. Don't worry about other things."
As he was about to leave, I pulled his sleeve and walked out of the house with him. When we were under the eaves, I stared at his collarbone.
I was busy just now and didn't have time to ask.
Mo Xiu touched my collarbone , lowered his head and kissed the corner of my lips, with a smile on his face: "You and I are one, as long as you don't leave the town or violate the consciousness of the snake coffin, you will be fine."
"Go to bed early and don't think too much." Mo Xiu helped me tidy up my hair, then turned around and disappeared.
I tightened my hands under the large black robe and entered the room again.
The wound on Yu Xinhe's leg has been bandaged. She held the bottle of snake wine and looked at me with gloomy eyes: "Is there any movement from Lord Snake's clavicle blood snake?"
Her tone was a little strange, her eyes fell on my lower abdomen, and she smiled solemnly: "The collarbone blood snake, the bones are indestructible. Mo Xiu doesn't have a snake body, and he can withstand it, which is already very powerful. It's been less than half a day, and he's fine."
"When he got angry, lightning and thunder flashed. The bowstrings made by the Gu family with the tendons of pig dragons broke all at once..." Yu Xinhe sat on the stool.
Holding the bottle of snake wine tightly, he supported his upper body and looked at me: "Black snake plus gold, attracting lightning and electricity, and it is just the Lord of the Snakes. Without the snake body, it can still make you, a girl from the Dragon family, pregnant."
"Long Ling, do you know what kind of snake Mo Xiu is?" Yu Xinhe slowly raised his hand and said to me in a deep voice: "The snake-shaped ring passed down from my family's ancestors has been destroyed because it scratched his collarbone."
The snake-shaped ring on her hand seemed to have been corroded by something, and it was completely unrecognizable from its original appearance. It seemed to be just an ordinary ring that was bent and twisted.
There is no trace of the snake winding and twisting, vivid and lifelike appearance.
"The snake spirit is destroyed, just throw it away." Qin Mipo sighed and wrapped the gauze.
Looking at Yu Xinhe, he whispered, "Tell the head of your Yu family, don't offend the Snake King if you want to offend anyone else."
