Chapter 680
Because the crow's nest is within ten kilometers, if it is really still there, it is impossible to find it without the wind.
Sure enough, on the fourth day, the crow went to court, and he brought the shiny gem fragment with him as a gift to the female. Finally, they built a new love nest 23 kilometers away. Because the male crow's current residence was too close to the apartment, the female crow found it noisy, so she moved to the new home near the commercial street, where there was plenty of food and fewer people at night. The two newlywed crows got along very well and were very sweet.
Feng Lan, who was forced to watch the crows courting in Animal World: "..."
Just when she thought the matter was over, the female crow had an accident, but fortunately, she was rescued by an old lady who was a doctor before she retired. She bandaged the female crow's wound and kept her at home for a while before releasing her.
As we all know, crows have high IQs and can remember grudges but also repay favors. So, in order to repay the old lady, the two crows sent her gifts every day, such as yuan and coins picked up on the street, or gold rings, shiny glass fragments, and even visual fragments of the dream snake.
The old lady was very happy to receive them and collected them happily. The fragments of the Dream Snake looked very beautiful, purple in color, and sparkling as if there were stars inside. The old lady liked them very much and slept well every day when she used them as a pillow. She even made a necklace into it and wore it around her neck.
Coincidentally, the old lady lived in Lilac Apartment, but when Feng Lan was looking for her a few days ago, the old lady went out and took a bus to visit her eldest granddaughter in the next district, so she couldn't find her.
Feng Lan watched the old lady's daily life. One day, she saw Kang Xin looking for fragments. He looked for them one by one and asked the old lady who had just gone out. At that time, the necklace was worn on the old lady's neck.
"Have you ever seen a stone so small, so shiny, that it looked like a fragment?"
"Let me take a look," the old lady put on her reading glasses and looked for a long time, then shook her head, "I'm sorry, young man, I haven't seen it before."
"Fate really likes to play tricks on me." Feng Lan sighed after reading it. Considering the old lady's personality of wandering around every day, who could find her even if a normal person brought a hidden object tool?
After Feng Lan confirmed that there were no other accidents, she put away the ferry lantern and sat on the scepter to quickly find Lilac Apartment, the house belonging to the old lady. She flew around the house, but there was no light and no heartbeat. As expected, the grandma had not returned.
Feng Lan had no choice but to hide a flower vine in the flowerpot on the balcony so that she could receive the news as soon as the old lady came back.
Compared to Feng Lan, Kang Xin was not feeling so well.
He didn't know what this monster did, but every time he pulled the chain, his heart would hurt as if it was run over by wheels, and it was so painful that he was dying. Even if he cursed this monster, he would burst into tears uncontrollably, and his heart would feel depressed and he couldn't breathe.
Kang Xin suspected that this monster had some side effects but didn't tell anyone. Then, under his observation, he found that the monster was in much better condition than before. He even felt that it was secretly absorbing his energy. Just like what was said in the storybook, the longer you stay with the monster, the more energy will be absorbed.
Then wouldn't it mean that he would die before he even spent all the money, houses, and other things he had gained during this period? Kang Xin was shocked by his own guess.
"Sure enough, this monster pretended to be tortured by me some time ago, just to lower my defenses." Kang Xin looked at the mirror carefully. Under the psychological effect, he felt that he seemed to be much more haggard, and his face was pale. He originally wanted to torture the white snake as usual, but as long as he slightly moved the chain tied to his vital point, he would also be tortured. Kang Xin had no choice, and with his panic in his heart, he had no idea of making money.
Afraid that his secret would be exposed, Kang Xin couldn't stay at Hua Yan's house any longer. He also rejected invitations from other important people. Who knows if this was his life-saving money? Isn't that how it's played out in the movies?
Kang Xin, wrapped tightly, returned to his small house with the white snake that no one saw. He was still wearing his custom-made clothes and had hair wax on his hair, but his heart seemed to have returned to the useless and poor taxi driver before he met the white snake.
Kang Xin hid in a room with doors and windows tightly closed, and began to use his old tricks, kneeling down, slapping his father in the face, admitting his mistakes, and insulting himself.
"I'm sorry, I was wrong... I, I shouldn't have done that to you... Please, forgive me... I won't dare to do it again..." Kang Xin burst into tears. This time, he really attacked again. His face swelled up in a few seconds. "As long as you can remove the curse from me, I'm willing to do anything you ask me to do. Whether it's offerings, human sacrifices, or incense, I can get them for you..."
The dream snake was coiled around the rack, hissing and spitting out its tongue. In the darkness, its eyes reflected a faint light. Kang Xin secretly looked up and shuddered again. He finally remembered that this stupid monster, whom he had cursed so recklessly, was actually a monster he didn't know what it was and might even kill him...
"You want to buy my necklace?"
"Yes, the stone in the necklace is very important to a friend of mine. It was accidentally taken away by a crow before. It's rare for me to see a necklace so similar to that stone, so I wanted to buy it secretly as a surprise for it." Feng Lan's explanation was half true and half false, but the old lady believed it, and even thought that the stone might really be lost by the little girl's friend.
“Of course I can…” The old lady touched the necklace reluctantly. She was still reluctant to part with it. After all, with it, she slept well recently. If she didn’t have it, she would be very hesitant at the thought of insomnia.
Feng Lan took out a sachet, which contained chopped fern roots, wood chips, and several other soothing spices. After all, it was something taken out from a fairy tale magic copy, so it would work well on ordinary people.
[Fern root: A soft, fragrant piece of wood. Your imitation was crude, resulting in only a single fragrant piece of wood. When lit, the fragrance it emits can soothe the mind.]
"I see this necklace is also your favorite. I have a sachet here that I want to give you. This sachet has a pretty good calming effect. If you have trouble sleeping, you can put it next to your pillow at night."
The old lady took it, sniffed it gently, and felt her temples relaxed a lot. She could make money and solve her sleep problem. She was not a bad person and she was not short of money, so she naturally agreed to Feng Lan's request.
After going through a tedious process comparable to the tasks in the Novice Village, Feng Lan finally found the eyes of the Dream Snake.
"Thank you..." The Dream Snake regained its sight, its eyes were as beautiful as the starry sky, and countless rays of light flowed in the two lustrous black jades. Before turning into a card, the Dream Snake glanced at Feng Lan. Just this one glance made it shudder, as it saw the future of this human being.
"...The sky...needs quiet..." The Dream Snake mustered up the courage to mutter in a low voice, then turned into a card and flew into the gem on Feng Lan's neck.
