The journey back was very smooth because the big black python cleared the way for everyone. Strangely enough, they thought they would encounter a human-faced tree when they went back, but when they got to the end, the human-faced tree seemed to be gone, and there was no movement at all.
The big black python sent them to the exit and then stopped.
Along the way, Zhang Meng found that this big black python was quite docile. If it weren't so big, she would really have the urge to take it back.
"Okay, I'm going to say goodbye to you here. You stay here well. I will come back to see you when I have the chance in the future." Zhang Meng said while touching the snake's head.
The big black python let her touch it obediently, but when it heard her say that she was leaving, tears of reluctance appeared in its big snake eyes.
Ye Shiping, who was watching from the side, felt itchy inside. He walked up to Zhang Meng, rubbing his hands together, and said embarrassedly, "Sister-in-law, can I touch this big black python too?"
Zhang Meng heard his request and replied with a smile, "I can't promise you that. You have to ask the big black python. It has to let you touch it before you can."
Ye Shiping immediately looked at the big black python and negotiated with it in a tone, "Big black python, we are friends now, right? Can you let me touch you too? Just a touch will do. If yes, nod your head. If not, forget it. I will turn around and leave right now."
After saying that, Ye Shiping looked at the big black python with a pitiful face.
At this moment, the big black python suddenly lowered its head. Just when Ye Shiping excitedly thought that he was about to achieve his wish, suddenly a strong wind blew towards him and blew him away in an instant.
Ye Shiping got up from the ground and realized that the wind had just come from the big black python's nose. He pointed at it and cursed angrily, "You stinky snake, if you don't want me to touch you, then don't touch me. You even want to hit me with your breath? Humph, I'm not going to touch you anyway, what's so great about that?"
After saying that, he turned and walked out of the cave.
Seeing this, Zhang Meng smiled and touched the snake's head. Finally, she suppressed her reluctance and waved goodbye to it, then turned and left the cave.
After coming out of the cave, the old man who had been guarding there walked around the soldiers who had just come out and asked about the situation inside.
Finally, the old man realized that he couldn't get anything out of the soldiers. He happened to see a young couple coming out of the cave. He immediately left the soldiers and ran to Zhang Meng and Gu Mingtai to ask, "What did you find in there? Can you show it to me?"
When they came out, the young couple discussed that they should keep the fact that they found the sacred tree a secret from those outside, in order to prevent those people from having any bad intentions when they saw the sacred tree.
"No, are you sure there's some treasure in this cave? Why did we go in and search for it? We encountered a lot of scary monsters, but we didn't find any treasures. Did you see that thing that's just bones left? We found it in there. If you want it, I'll give it to you."
The old man's face changed when he saw the bone girl Zhang Meng was pointing at, and he immediately shook his head vigorously, "No, no, we don't want this bone girl. You can take what you caught back. Take her away from our village immediately."
After saying that, the old man stopped asking questions and urged them to leave the village quickly.
Zhang Meng and Gu Mingtai looked at each other, and without saying anything, they called Ye Shiping and the others and walked out of the ancestral hall together.
When leaving Guanjia Village, everyone looked at this small village surrounded by coffins, took a few more glances, then turned around, got on the car and left.
When handing over the sacred tree, Zhang Meng really wanted to hide it, but unfortunately she didn't have the courage, so she had to hand it over honestly.
Life returned to normal again. After this mission, there was suddenly a woman living in the Gu family's small courtyard.
After some tossing and turning, the bone girl regained her original appearance and became a real woman living in the Gu family, using the pseudonym Xishi.
It’s amazing that this woman is very adaptable. Once she entered this human society, she learned it very well. In less than half a month, she can now do laundry and cook with Grandma Zhang and chat about gossip with the aunties outside.
The following days were relatively peaceful. Although there were tasks, they were all relatively minor and Ye Shiping and the others handled them themselves.
Early this morning, Zhang Meng was a little absent-minded, and her appearance scared everyone in the family half to death.
She usually looks energetic at home, but today, she looks like an eggplant hit by frost.
Grandma Zhang asked several times in a row. In order not to scare Grandma Zhang, Zhang Meng had to tell her that she was fine. However, when she turned around, she still looked absent-minded.
Gu Mingtai, who had just returned home from the Ghost Hunting Team, learned about this and immediately found Zhang Meng in the room where she had drawn the talisman paper.
"I heard from grandma and the others that you acted strangely today. What happened?" As soon as Gu Mingtai came in, he put down what she was doing, pulled her to sit aside and asked with concern.
Zhang Meng suppressed her excitement and looked at him, "Gu Mingtai, I had a dream last night. I dreamed that there was a big white snake swimming around me. Finally, it disappeared and turned into a white light and drilled into my stomach."
Gu Mingtai thought for a moment that his wife missed the big black python too much, so he touched the back of her hand and comforted her, "If you miss the big black python too much, I will accompany you to see it when I have time next time."
Zhang Meng was so anxious that he didn't understand what she meant. She held his face with her hands and said seriously again, "Gu Mingtai, you still don't understand what I mean. I mean, that big white snake got into my stomach. My stomach, my stomach."
