Chapter 203 Tomb of the God of Fox - Mother's Choice
"Okay then", the female mantis looked at Chen Zhi seriously and lowered her voice and said, "I'm going to tell you something now, you have to be mentally prepared.
I have a message for you, and this message comes from your mother."
"What did you say?" Chen Zhi was stunned for a moment, unable to believe his ears. At the same time, there were millions of flying insects buzzing around in his head.
In fact, Chen Zhi originally thought that this female mantis mysteriously invited him here in the middle of the night just because she didn't dare to blatantly take bribes during the day. At night, she wanted to talk to him and ask for a few more dollars.
Agree to let them into the Jade Girl Pond.
However, he never expected that at this moment, this woman would mention his mother in front of him.
Chen Zhi's expression was still calm at this time, but his mind was racing, "My mother? Why did this woman mention my mother? My biological mother should have died when I was two years old. She died in a mountain.
Landslide accident. Could the mother that the female mantis mentioned be the ghost mother? Impossible, the time and motive do not match. Could it be that this woman is lying? Test me?"
Chen Zhi stared at the female mantis calmly and said, "I don't understand you, can you tell me first, who are you?".
The female mantis did not avoid Chen Zhi's eyes at all, and continued, "You don't have to care about who I am, I am just an insignificant character. But twenty years ago, my life was saved by a woman, and that woman was
your mother".
The female mantis calmly glanced at the surrounding dark jungle, and after confirming that there was no one there, she continued: "Twenty years ago, I was a special administrator in this Bixia Temple, responsible for managing the Jade Girl Pond here.
Those days were really...", the female mantis sneered and didn't say any more.
"After I was rescued by your mother, in return, I stayed here and waited for you for twenty years. During this period, I had many opportunities to leave here, but I did not leave. I insisted on staying.
I am here to convey this message to you personally.”
"Are you talking about what happened twenty years ago?" Chen Zhi looked coldly into the eyes of the female mantis, shook his head and smiled, "You are lying. Even twenty years ago, my mother really asked you to take care of me.
Give me a message. But at that time, no one would predict what I look like now, not even my mother. How did you know that I was Chen Zhi as soon as you saw me? "
After Chen Zhi finished speaking, he took a step back slightly to observe the reaction of the female mantis after her lie was revealed. He moved his right hand slightly to wipe the kitten (the long-range shooting gun given by Master Bao) on his waist.
But the female mantis in front of her did not make any move. She looked at Chen Zhi calmly and smiled lightly.
"Of course I know what you look like, because I have a portrait of you."
After the female mantis finished speaking, she calmly took out a roll of sketch paper from her arms, slowly opened it in front of Chen Zhi, stretched out both ends with her hands, and held it in front of Chen Zhi.
The sketch paper was as big as A3 printing paper. It was obviously yellowed, but the edges were not broken. It could be seen that it had been carefully kept.
On the sketch paper, there was a portrait of a young man. It was hand-drawn with a sketch pencil. The brushwork was very professional, the painting skills were exquisite, and it was very realistic. And the young man in the painting was clearly Chen Zhi.
"This is what your mother painted with her own hands." The female mantis rolled up the drawing paper and handed it to Chen Zhi and said. "After your mother left this portrait to me, she told me that twenty years later, her son
You will come to Mount Tai and try to enter the Jade Girl Pond. I must stay here on the ninth day of every month, waiting for your appearance.
Last month, a team entered Mount Tai on a large scale in the name of geological survey. I had already noticed it and guessed it was you, so I went up the mountain this morning and sealed the mouth of Jade Girl Spring with stone bricks, just to
Waiting for your appearance."
Chen Zhi took the portrait from the female Mantis, opened it and looked at it, and saw a familiar yet unfamiliar name in the lower right corner of the portrait, "Jiang Suoqing".
Before Chen Zhi's eyes could leave, the female mantis quickly pulled back the sketch. "You guys are finally here. Now I want to relay your mother's words to you."
Chen Zhi's heart felt like a mess at this time. He nodded to the female mantis and said, "Say it!".
The female mantis took a few steps forward and lowered her voice as low as possible, so soft that only Chen Zhi could hear it.
"Your mother asked you to make a choice. Until now, do you really choose to continue walking?
If you choose to continue, your life will undergo tremendous changes from the moment you enter the Jade Girl Pond, and death is likely to be waiting for you.
If you choose not to continue, then leave here now, don't tell the people around you, don't trust anyone, find a secluded place by yourself, and live a low-key life under a different name.
And your mother's advice to you is, "Don't go down, get out of here, this is a never-ending war."
After the female mantis whispered these words, she quickly took a few steps back, her face returned to indifference and calmness, waiting for Chen Zhi's reaction.
Chen Zhi was completely confused at this time. In fact, ever since he heard the news about his mother, his emotions had been uncontrollable.
His memory of his biological mother was very vague, and what replaced her was the terrifying face of the ghost mother. For more than twenty years, the ghost mother's indifference and the false life without the real mother left a mark on his soul.
A deep imprint. In fact, Chen Zhi has no idea what true maternal love in this world looks like, what form it takes, and whether it is trustworthy.
After Chen Zhi thought for a moment, he shook his head and said to the female mantis: "I can't answer your question, I can't believe what you said, it's all too ridiculous.
That sketch portrait doesn't prove anything. Do you want me to believe that this is a kind of precognitive ability? It is very likely that you used an old sketch paper to draw what I look like now for some purpose.
This is hard for me to believe unless you have other evidence."
The female mantis laughed calmly at this time, "I don't care whether you trust me or not, and you don't have to be wary of me. I'm not your enemy, I'm just a messenger.
We will still meet here at this time tomorrow night, and tell me your answer then."
After the female praying mantis finished speaking, she raised a finger, shook it in front of Chen Zhi's eyes and said, "Don't ever think about getting past me and sneaking into the Jade Girl Pond.
On the ninth day of the Lunar New Year, I will kill any trespassers. Even if someone jumps into the pool secretly, believe me, they will just drown in it and never come out again. This was the case in my previous job."
After the female mantis finished speaking, she turned around and walked towards the woods, and soon disappeared into the woods.
Chen Zhi watched the female mantis's leaving shadow from behind and felt that this woman looked really strange. In this dark night, a woman walked around in the mountains without any scruples. She was not afraid at all. And her movements were very strange.
Agile, when walking, the heels seem not to touch the ground.
