Ling Ruo wanted to go for a walk in the bamboo forest, but Mo Yu shook her head like a rattle, saying that it was gloomy and there might be dirty things hidden there, so she refused to go in or stay here alone.
Had to give up.
After walking forward for a while, Ling Ruo suddenly saw an acquaintance when he was about to reach the broken bridge. He said he was an acquaintance, but in fact, he had just met him once.
"I'm telling you, there are demons and snake demons here. She will come out to eat people every night and eat you all!" The big girl said in a voice while grabbing a pair of men walking up and down the broken bridge.
, they were so frightened that they turned around and left, not daring to stay any longer.
The girl was still wearing yesterday's clothes, but this time she didn't wear chrysanthemums on her head. Instead, she inserted a few dead branches. She kept repeating the same words to the tourists, which made them suddenly lose interest and leave in a hurry.
But most people thought she was talking crazy and laughed it off.
"Big girl, where is your second uncle? Why did you let you run out alone again?" Ling Ruo walked over and pulled aside the big girl who always teased everyone.
The big girl tilted her head and looked at her for a long time, then suddenly clapped her hands and giggled, "I remember you, you are the person yesterday." Before Ling Ruo could speak, her expression became strange again, "The snake demon is hungry and is coming to eat people!
"
Mo Yu felt cold all over after what she said. She pulled Ling Ruo and said, "Master, she is just a silly girl. Stop talking to her. Let's go."
"Wait a minute." Ling Ruo comforted her for a few words and then continued to ask the big girl: "Where is your second uncle? Why isn't he looking at you?"
"Second uncle?" Da Niu repeated blankly and shook her head: "I don't know, second uncle doesn't care about me." At this point, she suddenly squatted down, picked up a piece of osmanthus cake that someone else had dropped on the ground, and stuffed it into her mouth.
, she was whispering something while eating. Ling Ruo leaned her ear next to her and vaguely heard words such as "snake demon", "eat" and "hungry".
Ling Ruo straightened up and looked thoughtfully at the big girl lying on the ground looking for food. She felt more and more strange in her heart. Obviously her second uncle said yesterday that he had been taking care of her, but he only occasionally left the door unlocked and let her run out. But
Today, the big girl is still wandering around the West Lake, and she also says that her second uncle never cares about her. What is going on?
When he was wondering, he suddenly heard a muffled sound similar to last night. He quickly asked Mo Yu: "What does this sound sound like to you?"
"Sound?" Mo Yu was surprised at first, and then showed a look of fear. He hugged himself tightly with both hands and trembled: "Master, it's still broad daylight. Don't scare me. There's no sound."
Ling Ruo was stunned for a moment, and when she listened again, she found that there was nothing else around but the voices of tourists. Could it be that she had misheard just now?
"I know!" Before the thought was finished, the big girl who heard them suddenly shouted, then broke away from her hand, ran to the broken bridge and shouted loudly, "Snake demon! The snake demon is coming out to eat people.
Come on, run away! We can’t stay here any longer!”
All the tourists who came and went heard what she said, but most of them regarded it as crazy talk. Not many people took it seriously. They still strolled by the West Lake laughing, and only a few left timidly.
Ling Ruo's eyes flashed, and she walked quickly to the big girl and said softly: "Big girl, are you hungry? Can I take you to eat?"
As soon as she heard that there was something to eat, the big girl nodded quickly and followed Ling Ruo to the building outside the building next to the West Lake. When the waiter who greeted the customers saw the sloppy big girl, he immediately stopped smiling and shouted disdainfully: "Go away,
There's nothing for you to eat here."
"I brought her here to prepare a private room." After saying this, Ling Ruo directly took the girl's hand and walked in. After sitting in the private room for a while, the ordered dishes began to arrive one after another.
When there was something to eat, the big girl's eyes lit up, and she didn't even take the chopsticks, she just took them with her hands. Mo Yu frowned for a while, and put down the chopsticks that she originally picked up. If the big girl did this, it was considered a show off.
She's not even interested in it either.
Each of the eight dishes was eaten by the big girl. She even licked the plate clean. She burped and said with a silly smile: "Hey, it's so delicious. This is the best meal I've ever had.
Sister, you are so kind."
Ling Ruo smiled, took off the dead branch from Da Niu's head, and said as if unintentionally: "Da Niu, don't you often have enough to eat?"
As soon as she said this, the girl immediately lowered her head in grievance, "Well, my second uncle said that I was disobedient, so I couldn't give me food."
"You're such a good girl, why would my uncle think you're disobedient? Can you tell me?" Ling Ruoxun asked, "And where did you hear about the snake demon in the West Lake?"
"Second uncle said it." Da Niu played with her hair and said: "Second uncle said that there are monsters in the West Lake, and they come out to eat people every night. Let me tell everyone, tell them not to come to the West Lake at night, otherwise they will die.
Yes. If I do well, he will give me food to eat and will not beat me."
"Does he often hit you?" Mo Yu couldn't help but interrupt.
The big girl nodded and rolled up her sleeves. Sure enough, there were red scars on her arms. Ling Ruo frowned. Yesterday, the man was very nice to the big girl. But now it seems that he was just pretending to bully the big girl.
If there is a problem, he will mistreat her, which is very annoying.
"Why would he let you spread rumors?" The more I thought about it, the more I realized something was wrong.
"No!" The girl shook her head repeatedly and said seriously: "It's not a rumor. The second uncle said that there really is a snake demon. You must not come out at night, otherwise you will be eaten by the snake demon."
"Forget it, let's not talk about this." Ling Ruo knew that Da Niu had some mental problems. Once she recognized her second uncle's words, she would not believe anything she said. "Da Niu, tell me where my family lives, and I will send it to you."
Would you like to go back?"
The older girl nodded, she knew the road well, and led Ling Ruo all the way to a small courtyard. There were three brand new blue brick houses in the small courtyard, which were much better than the houses next to them.
Before entering the yard, I saw Da Niu's second uncle playing dice with a group of people. When he saw them, his expressions changed slightly. He said a few words to those people, collected their money and dispersed, and then hurriedly greeted them.
He came up and said, "Big girl, where have you been? You've made your second uncle very anxious."
The big girl didn't dare to say anything and stood there with her head lowered, but Mo Yu sneered and said: "If you are so anxious, why are you still in the mood to play dice and gamble?"
"This...isn't this just idle time?" He replied nonchalantly, his eyes flickering. Ling Ruo originally wanted to ask him why he wanted Da Niu to spread rumors, but then he changed his mind and just said: "
I'll bring the big girl back to you. You have to watch her carefully from now on and don't let her run around again."
"I know, don't worry, this lady." The second uncle's greedy eyes swept over Ling Ruo's face. There are not many such beautiful women in Hangzhou. If you can kiss Fangze, you will be romantic even if you are a ghost.
, it was not until Ling Ruo walked out of the yard that he reluctantly looked away.
