Revisiting the old place is the most emotional thing, and for a vampire who has lived for more than two thousand years and most of the things he has experienced have disappeared with the passage of time, revisiting the old place has a different meaning.
.
Looking at this vaguely familiar neighborhood, Hesiana's memory gradually became clearer. She seemed to have returned to two thousand years ago, to the days when she had just awakened as a "human". That was probably the most beautiful time in her life.
Happy times: The little bat who had been forgotten for many years became a spirit, and then found her "mother" again. The age of mythology has not been completely cut off, and all kinds of aliens can still move around the world openly. Her life is simple and happy. Then
Vivian hadn't chased her away at that time, and Hessiana was happily running around behind her "mother" every day. Although life was difficult, there was really nothing to worry about, and there was no need to worry about the witcher.
When searching, you don't have to worry about fighting with other aliens, and you don't have to scheming with other families. The only thing you need to worry about every day is probably three meals a day.
Although three meals a day is indeed a big problem: even with great wealth, it is difficult for Vivian to exchange them for food...
Hao Ren and his party came to the stone wall that carried the little bat spirit's childhood memories. The stone wall was carved with childish patterns: a group of plump and abstract rats, some crooked trees, and filled with
A large table of fruits and pastries: the images of the food were really hard to distinguish. If it weren't for the outline of the table below, Hao Ren really wouldn't have thought of it.
Lily looked at the paintings on the stone wall, and then at Hesiana, with a subtle expression on her face. Her eyes jumped back and forth between the two, until the latter looked horrified before she couldn't help but speak.
: "So you were so naive when you were a child?"
Hesiana had an embarrassed look on her face and turned her head away unnaturally: "Whoever has not cultivated to perfection when he was a child also has a childhood, right?"
"But your painting is quite strange," Lily commented while looking at the little bat spirit's childhood paintings, "Why did you also draw a group of big mice..."
Hesiana blushed: "I...the painting I drew is obviously a horse!"
Hao Ren slapped his forehead: "Here I go, it turns out to be a horse... I also thought it was a mouse at first."
The little bat spirit put his hands on his hips and glared angrily: "You two bastards are not done yet! I don't believe that you two could draw better than me when you were young!"
Unexpectedly, he discovered that this naughty boy had such an innocent and childish side. Hao Ren felt a strange joy in his heart. He always felt that he had successfully caught this guy's hand. Therefore, he faced the little bat spirit's harsh words.
He had no intention of being serious with the other party. And just when the group was filled with emotion surrounding Hesiana's childhood masterpiece, a childish-sounding voice suddenly came from behind Hao Ren: "Who are you?"
Hao Ren turned around and was stunned for a moment: Hesiana, who looked slightly smaller than the current little bat spirit, was standing in front of him.
The little girl was wearing a long white dress with a rough texture, no shoes on her feet, and her long, silky hair was draped behind her head. Her appearance was exactly the same as that of Vivian and Hesiana, only more childish. She was holding a hand in one hand.
A small crooked branch, with the other hand holding half a piece of dough, she looked straight at Hao Ren and his entourage who were discussing her "masterpiece", her big eyes full of curiosity and traces of...
of alertness.
Almost instantly, Hao Ren realized who the little girl standing in front of him was: the childhood version of Hesiana!
Lily also guessed the origin of this little girl, but her thinking direction was obviously different from normal people: she poked Hesiana's arm, lowered her voice and asked a question: "Hey, didn't you say you became a spirit through cultivation?
Will it be quite big after that? How can it be so small?"
Hesiana was stunned for a moment when she saw the childhood version of herself. Lily's voice woke her up and she curled her lips: "Nonsense, it's only two thousand years, I have to grow a little, right? And
I was already so big when I first turned into human form (pointing to the childhood version of myself not far away), so I can’t be considered small compared to human cubs, right?”
Lily looked up and down at little Hesiana not far away, and had to admit that what the little bat spirit said made sense: although the little girl looked more immature than Hessiana, she still looked like a human being of thirteen or fourteen years old.
If you were this big just after becoming a spirit, you would be really big enough...
At least she's bigger than when she, the husky spirit, transformed into a human form.
The two guys who had become spiritual masters discussed it in a weird field, and then reached an even weirder consensus.
Hao Ren didn't know that there was anything worth discussing about "being very big after cultivating to become a spirit". He just observed with interest the girl not far away who was basically the childhood version of Hessiana, and the vigilance on the latter's face.
After his expression became more obvious, he spoke gently: "Is your name Hesiana?"
Little Hesiana took a bite of half a piece of bread in her right hand and nodded while chewing: "Yes, who are you?"
"We are friends of Vivian," Hasselblad also spoke, but even though he tried hard to make his expression look kinder, his paralyzed face that had lost its expression due to the poisonous blood was still so stiff, "We
I heard she moved here recently..."
"Mom is not at home," before Hasselblad could finish, little Hesiana interrupted abruptly, "You go back."
After saying that, she seemed to have ended the conversation unilaterally, and began to chew the small half piece of bread seriously. With her other hand, she waved the crooked twig around, as if to encourage the unsatisfied people in front of her.
The guest quickly left so that she could continue painting on the wall.
At this time, Hesiana finally couldn't hold it any longer, and she walked up from behind: "Then...where did Lady Vivian go?"
Little Hesiana's attention had just been focused on Hao Ren and the one-eyed Hasselblad. At this moment, it was as if she saw Hessiana for the first time. The little girl's expression suddenly froze. At first, she probably thought she was seeing
When Vivian arrived, there was a hint of surprise on her face, but she soon realized something was wrong and started to become a little wary and curious: "Who are you?"
"My name is Heather..." Hesiana almost blurted out her name, but she stopped at the last moment. She thought about it and gave herself a new name in seconds, "My name is Hathaway! Yes.
Your sister!"
"Sister?" Little Hesiana frowned, as if she was a little confused about this sister who suddenly appeared, "Why do I have a sister? I don't know you..."
As soon as Hesana saw the opportunity, she immediately started to lie: "Of course you don't know me, because you were not thrown out when I became a spirit. You were transformed into a little bat, right? Me too.
!Ms. Vivian also lost a bat before you, and that one was me! If you don’t believe it, look, I can also transform bat wings. Are these wings exactly the same as yours..."
As Hesiana spoke, she spread her bat wings. This scene immediately frightened several passers-by who happened to be looking this way and screamed. Hessiana immediately turned her head and glared at them.
, those ordinary people all ran away like shit.
It probably won't be long before some new rumors about gods appear around here.
Little Hesiana stared blankly at the big Hessiana spreading her bat wings, and nodded dizzily: "It seems so..."
Hesiana concluded: "So I am your sister."
"It seems so."
Sure enough, as Hesiana said before, her brain wasn't very good when she first became a spirit, and the little girl couldn't handle any situation that happened.
Lily quietly poked Hao Ren's arm: "Landlady, little bat, she's not soft at all when she deceives me."
"Nonsense, you just picked your own people to attack. This is a 100% natural 'one of our own'."
Although the two of them lowered their voices, Hesiana stood so close and was a bat spirit who was born to rely on her hearing. Of course she heard everything clearly, and the veins on her forehead suddenly popped out: "You two are not talking.
No one treats you as dumb!"
Little Hesiana looked confused: "??"
The little girl didn't have a translation plug-in in her head, but Hao Ren and Lily muttered in Chinese...
"Sister, are you here to find your mother?" Little Hesiana had been completely deceived by herself at this time (there is no logical problem with this sentence, right), so she put down most of her vigilance,
Then he took the initiative to speak.
"Yeah," Hesiana looked at her childhood self, "Where did she go?"
"She went out and asked me to wait for her at home," little Hesiana said, raising her head and handing half a piece of dough to Hessiana, "Sister, I'll give you some cake, it's delicious!
Mom made it!”
Hesiana took the dough in a daze, and her expression slowly froze.
After a while, her nose twitched a few times and she started crying.
Hao Ren was about to ask the little girl when Vivian would be back, but when he turned around and saw Hesiana's performance, he was shocked: "Hey, what's wrong with you?!"
Hesiana held a small piece of dough and wiped away her tears with her arms: "Ms. Vivian asked me to wait for her at home, but she never came back. I waited for many years until the Visigoths came in.
The city of Rome didn't even wait for her to come home...I thought she didn't want me anymore..."
Hao Ren, Lily and Hasselblad looked at each other, a little confused by this sudden change. Hasselblad was the one who didn't know how to deal with it. After all, he and Hessiana were not familiar with each other at all, while Lily was used to quarreling with the little bat spirit.
But he didn't know how to comfort him. In the end, Hao Ren couldn't help it anymore and stepped forward and pressed the little bat spirit's head: "Okay, okay, it's okay. She didn't want you. Didn't she find you later?"
Hesiana pulled Hao Ren's hand away: "Don't treat me like a child. Of course I know what's going on. Lady Vivian often forgets some things. I'm just unlucky...she suddenly forgot about me. I
It's okay, I just saw this piece of cake and suddenly remembered it... When she went out, she made a lot of noodles for me, and said she would be back before I finished eating... I didn't dare to eat the last piece of cake.
, kept putting it, kept putting it, until finally it turned into ashes..."
Hao Ren hesitated for a moment, then put his hand on the little bat spirit's head again.
