Chapter 203: The Hundredth First Love (6)
The weather was getting darker and the dew was heavier. The autumn night was chilly
. Bai Yao had been holding a wooden stick in her hand. She leaned against the wall of the well and huddled up. The white dress she
was wearing was already filthy beyond recognition. She was not wearing shoes, and her bare feet were even colder. She tucked her feet into the hem of her skirt. When she raised her eyes, she met the eyes of the boy opposite her. The small green light on the ground added a little brilliance to the darkness.
Chi Chong seemed bored, and from time to time he fiddled with the green flute in his hand. His fingers were flexible, and the flute kept spinning at his fingertips, revealing the endless energy of the young man.
Of course, the bricks that Bai Yao gave him for self-defense were also lying next to him.
Another chill came, Bai Yao sneezed, the quieter she was, the colder she felt, she had no choice but to ask, "How many years have you been doing this?"
Chi Chong held his chin with one hand, his black eyes flashing with light, he thought seriously, "It should have started since I was born."
Bai Yao sighed, "It's not easy for you."
He was so young and came out with the guise of summoning spirits to deceive people. It was obvious that his original family was very unfortunate, no wonder Bai Lili could afford to hire him.
Bai Yao was also bored, she stared at Chi Chong for a long time, if it were in modern times, he would still be in high school.
Children of this age either love to play games or study hard, exuding the youthful vigor of youth. They definitely don't come to society to make money by pretending to be ghosts.
The flute in Chi Chong's hand stopped. It was the first time he heard someone say that his life was not easy. After all, the people from the Central Plains who came to Miaojiang to find him all begged him to do things in a humble manner, and some even knelt on the ground and called him grandpa with tears.
Yes, he became someone else's grandpa at a young age, and he didn't think it was easy for him.
There was a breeze, Bai Yao shivered, turned sideways and pressed against the wall of the well, curled up into a ball, and the feet with exposed toes were retracted into the hem of her skirt.
She was clearly the one who had a hard time, yet she had the time to talk about how hard it was for him.
Chi Chong took pleasure in the misfortune, and straightened his back even more, waiting for her to give up and call him Grandpa.
The creeping insects in the white cloth lantern died one after another, and the light became dimmer and the halo had shrunk a lot.
She leaned against the wall of the well and changed her postures again, but she didn't look at him again.
Chi Chong pursed his lips slightly, not very happy. He rolled his eyes and put one hand on the ground. In the dim environment that ordinary people could not see, a layer of frost slowly spread from his hands, climbed up the wall of the well, and cooled his breath again.
Bai Yao hugged her arms and sat up straight, "Why is it so cold all of a sudden!"
Chi Chong fiddled with his little flute and answered innocently, "I don't know."
Bai Yao stood up, rubbing her arms and began to pace, not even caring about the scrapes on her feet. However, this did not have much effect. Her feet were even colder, and the breath she exhaled seemed to be cold.
Bai Yao could not stand the cold, and she looked at the energetic boy sitting in the corner.
Chi Chong did not look at her, but began to hum a tuneless little song, looking at the sky, then at the ground, as if admiring flowers and the moon.
Bai Yao tentatively took a step closer to him.
He still did not react.
Bai Yao took another step closer.
He seemed to be surprised by her action, and raised his face and asked blankly: "What's the matter?"
Bai Yao asked him, "Aren't you cold?"
He shook his head, his peach blossom eyes were honest, not fake, "No, you feel cold?"
Bai Yao asked again: "How much silver can you help?"
Speaking of money, Chi Chong's eyes brightened a lot, "One gold bar can..."
The girl who suddenly bumped into his arms swallowed back his unfinished words.
- One gold bar can buy a Pihan pill.
The dirty girl curled up her legs, pulled his clothes to cover herself, and stretched out two fingers, "I'll give you two gold bars, you are not allowed to tell anyone about what happened today."
Chi Chong's face was a little strange.
He thought for a long time before he remembered that this picture seemed a little familiar. It was a few years ago, a Han Chinese couple, the woman was poisoned, and in order to ask him to help, they crossed the cold pond.
After crossing the cold pond, the two took off their clothes and hugged each other.
At that time, he was only thirteen years old, sitting on a tree branch and looking at the two people below, he felt that they were like two green snakes in a bamboo cage. In order to lay eggs, the two green snakes needed to be entangled like this.
No, the green snakes would not make them so noisy.
Chi Chong has been alone all year round, only with snakes, insects, rats and ants. He doesn't know what the boundaries between men and women are, and no one has taught him this. He just intuitively thinks that Bai Yao seems to have become the female green snake in the bamboo cage.
Maybe she was pestering him so much just to put some snake eggs in her belly.
Then he started to get nervous.
When he saw the two Han men, he ran to tell the elders in the village. The elders told him that this is how babies are put into women's bellies.
Chi Chong suddenly stood up and Bai Yao fell to the ground. She held her sprained waist and glared at him, "You don't want the gold bars anymore!"
Chi Chong looked terrified, and he didn't know what to do with his hands holding the flute. After a long while, he said, "You can't do this."
Bai Yao: "Ah?"
He said again, "You will put my baby in your belly this way."
Bai Yao: "...Ah?"
Chi Chong seemed to have discovered a big conspiracy, and his bright eyes hid a witty complacency. , her eyebrows curved, her smile was more beautiful than the blooming flowers in spring, "I won't have a baby with you." Bai
Yao was silent for a long time, she sat up from the ground, stared at the boy's face that said "I am the smartest in the world, you are all fools" for a long time, she said two words coldly, "It's too late." Chi Chong: "What?" She covered her belly, expressionless, but said seriously, "I'm already pregnant." The proud little expression on Chi Chong's face froze. The last Wanyou insect in the white cloth lantern was seriously injured and died, the green light disappeared, and the surroundings fell into darkness as if falling into the abyss.
Just like Chi Chong's state of mind at this moment, his life seemed to have fallen into the darkest moment in an instant.
The howling sound coming from the dark passage became louder, as if urging the loser outside to come in and explore. But this loser was Bai Yao, who was determined not to commit suicide. She was determined not to go inside because of curiosity.
The surroundings were suddenly not so cold, but warm. Bai Yao suspected that this was her illusion, but unfortunately she looked around and could not see anything in the dark, and even felt sleepy at the back. What
she didn't know was that the young man huddled in a corner and shut himself in for the whole night.
