Thanks for the invitation: In ancient times, people shared children

Chapter 153

"who are you talking to?"

Jintong frowned.

He had long discovered that in the world mirror, the child would turn his head from time to time, as if looking at something, and sometimes would say something in a direction where there was no one.

He was mumbling as if he was talking to someone. Although he had his doubts, this kind of thing was quite common in the World Mirror, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

But now she is outside, in broad daylight, with no one around, so who is she talking to?

Without waiting for the child to answer, Jin Tong placed his hands behind his back and tapped two talismans. That's right, there was not even a ghost.

Jin Tong's heart sank to the bottom.

The child pouted, pointed to the side, and said calmly, "This is a friend I made in the World Mirror... Her name is Xiaotong. I don't know how she followed me out."

The child thought that this was not impossible.

Although the World Mirror is an illusion, some things can indeed be taken out, which can be considered...gifts.

At least when the child came out, he got some things with some strange instructions on them -

[A can of Meng Yunhe's blessing]

It's a lime-like powder that you can sprinkle when you're in danger. Of course, you can also talk to it if you want.

【A rattle】【A bag of candy】

Hei Akabane thought you would like it, so he gave you these even though he didn't like you. To be fair, he didn't like bald people or colorful chickens at all.

That's not important. These two things can be used to play with, to eat, or as gifts. Or you can have any other uses for them. It's up to you. Anyway, they are just ordinary rattles and candies, sold everywhere.

【Flower Grass Skirt】

Every blade of grass has been rubbed and is extremely soft, dotted with beautiful and bright flowers.

Li Sanmei always said that she did it, but in fact it was clearly done by everyone together.

The flowers above have withered, just like the withered lives of Li Sanmei and the others.

You will never be able to find another grass skirt like it in the world, so at least keep it. Even though you couldn't save them, they are really happy to know you in their last days.

(Would you use something so flammable to start a fire?)

The instructions said that the book would be burned after reading, so the child didn't even have time to take a second look at it before both the thing and the person were out of the mirror.

Cao Ping also got some things.

【Ayun's Snare Drum】

A small drum that was beating very loudly.

How could there be such a loud drum when Ayun is so quiet?

You must be very eager to ask this, so don't forget your promise. When you deliver the drum to Ayun's house, you may ask about this matter.

Scales

Six or seven pieces, some of which you pulled out yourself, and some of which someone pulled out for you.

What looks like fish is actually yours, and it seems to taste medicinal.

What's the medicinal purpose? Longevity? Fitness? No, no, no, take one after getting out of the water. It tightens the skin and replenishes moisture. No more flaking after a duckweed bath.

What a strange use. I wonder if the scales that grow after your cultivation level increases will have some other functions.

【Simple grass skirt】

It's just... a grass skirt that you've never worn once.

(You'll definitely use it to start a fire anyway, so there's really no need to explain.)

All in all, because of the appearance of these things, it is not surprising that children can follow them out.

But Jin Tong said with a sullen face: "There is no ghost around you, come with me.

As for you, set up your tent and I will deal with you when I come back."

Don’t mention what the children think.

Cao Ping was extremely disappointed. He thought he would be kicked out directly.

Here, Cao Ping quietly packed up the tent.

The kid over there followed behind Jin Tong, and had to run and stumble to catch up with him.

The two remained silent until they entered the tent of medical officer Xu Mu.

"what happened?"

Xu Mu has become very free since he came here. When they came, he was putting his legs on the table, reading a pink-covered book. Judging from the name of it, it obviously didn't look like a medical book, and it was probably not even a serious book. When he saw people coming, he stuffed the book into the medicine stove in a panic. The blazing fire boiled his tea and burned his heart. He covered his face in silence for a long time before he asked them with red eyes.

That look seemed to be saying - you better be okay.

Jin Tong dragged a stool over and sat down, not saying anything for a long time.

The child just stood there helplessly, pinching his fingers.

The little girl came to the medicine furnace with a smile on her face, puffing out her cheeks constantly, as if she wanted to blow the fire bigger. I don't know if she succeeded or not.

"Ahem, since no one's talking, I'm going to say this." The little boy straightened up and waved his hand in front of Xu Mu, saying, "Can you see me? Can you see me? If you can't see me... then there's a problem~ No one can see me, but some people can."

She seemed to be talking to Xu Mu, but at the end, she looked at the child.

The child looked up as if sensing something, and saw her sitting on the table, swinging her legs, and giving her a malicious smile.

"You're really not smart," the little boy sighed, shaking his head. "You didn't notice anything was wrong? It's easy to fool yourself, isn't it? Anyway, you just don't like being alone, and you don't like being a bad guy."

The little girl was talking non-stop, but the child had no idea what she was saying.

It seemed that it didn't matter whether she understood it or not.

Because Xu Mu's expression gradually became serious, he asked again: "What's going on?"

Jin Tong glanced at the child, as if it was difficult for her to speak. The child almost thought he would let her out, but he didn't. He just looked at her and said, "This child is not good enough. She can't stand this."

"She also..." Xu Mu also looked at the child, but he closed his mouth before he finished speaking.

They said no more.

But the child felt as if something suffocating was moving through the house.

This child is not a good person. She can't stand this.

No matter who hears this, it doesn't sound like a good thing.

In the end, it was the medical officer Xu Mu who explained it to her clearly.

It's not that there's something wrong with her, it's just that she's sick and doesn't know it.

Some strange people, like her, will suffer from this disease, mostly because they are too sad, too painful, too scared, etc. It doesn't matter. As long as you take the medicine well, you will get better slowly.

The child listened to his words and vaguely realized that this must be related to the little boy.

Because... they said there was no such thing as a child, and everything related to the child was just her delusion.

It doesn’t matter. She won’t have to be so tired and painful in the future. Jin Tong will arrange something else for her to do.

Xu Mu touched her head and spoke gently, and finally said in surprise:

"You've grown stubble. My guess turned out to be correct. You lost your hair because the old ones weren't good enough. The hair that grows out this time will definitely be beautiful.

The same is probably true for the skin; once it's almost completely replaced, it will slowly get better, and its ability to heal may even be stronger in the future."

If he had this estimate, why didn't he tell her earlier? He made her worry for so long.

The child wanted to laugh, but she couldn't.

She felt that there was fog in front of her and she couldn't see clearly. She didn't know where to start.

The child said, "Let's just take it one step at a time. At worst, if we fall into a pit, we can still lie down for a while. Why think so much?"

Child:……

None of it was real to her, and she certainly didn't care.
