Milk and strawberry candy seemed to suit Lena's taste. Δ
"Big brother, can you tell me a story?" Lena suddenly asked.
"Story?"
The little girl nodded, "Every night at this time, my mother would tell me a story to coax me to sleep."
Luoqiu suddenly remembered that the little monsters he met in Yang Taizi's Taoist hall seemed to have been asked to tell stories like this … He subconsciously had a strange thought.
'Is it because … I'm the kind of naughty kid who would tell stories to me?'
"What story do you want to hear?"
Lena thought for a while, "Big brother, do you know the ending of the story? It's the story my mother told me on the train in the daytime. "
Luoqiu said, "Didn't your father tell you the ending of the story?"
"Lena doesn't believe in my father's ending!" The little girl raised her head and pouted, "I want to hear the real ending!"
"Then what do you think the real ending should be?" Luoqiu suddenly asked back.
The little girl lowered her head and thought for a while, "Well … Mr. Monster is so pitiful! He should marry a little girl and live happily ever after! "
"What monster?" Allie suddenly interrupted … Perhaps because she was too quiet, she needed something to talk about and say something.
"It's said that he's a very kind but ugly monster." Luoqiu looked at Allie, slowly telling the first part of the story he heard from Mrs. Maggie in the morning.
"Oh, that's the story!" Allie showed a look of understanding. She saw the little girl's gaze, so she smiled, "I also heard this story when I was a child … Well, it's actually a popular story in the nearby area."
Lena suddenly turned from Boss Luo to Allie.
Allie touched her head, "But, at the end of the story, Mr. Monster and the little girl didn't get married, but lived happily together."
"Ah? Why? "Lena was disappointed," Did Mr. Monster really eat his bride? "
Wait … Why did the story suddenly jump to the bride stage? Luo Qiu looked at this little girl in surprise … 'How far have you gone with your imagination?'
"No." Allie said seriously, "On the contrary, the little girl ate Mr. Monster's heart!"
"Why did she eat Mr. Monster's heart?" The little girl, Lina, showed a sad expression.
Allie said calmly, "Later in the story, the little girl grew up and left Mr. Monster. She went to the outside world, met a lot of people and learned a lot of things. Then, she fell in love with the son of a noble. However, when the little girl grew up, she was actually not beautiful, and the son of the noble did not like her. Later, she met a wizard. The wizard told her that as long as she ate Mr. Monster's heart, she could immediately become very beautiful and make everyone fall in love with her. "
Allie sighed and said, "Mr. Monster was very sad when he found out. But it still dug out its heart. It was because it liked this little girl very much. Even though the little girl had grown up and no longer liked it, it was still willing to let her be happy. So, Mr. Monster dug out his heart and gave it to her. Then, he left alone. "
"Then, did she really marry a noble's son in the end?"
"No." Allie shook her head and said, "After eating Mr. Monster's heart, she did not become more beautiful. Instead, she became as ugly as Mr. Monster. The noble's son disliked her even more. Even her parents despised her. In the end, she could only go back to the forest and live there, not daring to see people. But this time, Mr. Monster was no longer with her. "
Lina said sadly, "Mr. Monster … Is he dead?"
"I don't know. The story ends here. But later on, there was a legend that after Mr. Monster dug out his own heart and took it out, he wandered outside alone. "
Allie said slowly, "People said that without a heart, the monster had no memories. It was only a shell, like a walking dead. But it wanted to find its heart. Thus, it went around attacking innocent little girls, wanting to find the heart that it had lost. But it ate a lot of little girls, but in the end, it still could not find it. In the end, Mr. Monster came to the side of a lake and jumped into the lake. Since then, he has never appeared again. "
"Mr. Monster is so pitiful!" Lina said sadly.
Allie could only reach out and touch Lena's face, comforting her in a soft voice.
"Is this a local legend?" Luoqiu asked suddenly.
Allie nodded and smiled bitterly, "I don't know what kind of mentality the person who made up this story had. Anyway, when I grew up, I always felt that this story should not be told to children."
But you still told the whole story, didn't you?
Boss Luo shook his head and looked out of the window, whispering, "That lake …"
"It's here, Ladoga Lake."
…
…
The three of them opened the windows respectively, shining the strong flashlight on the trees on both sides of the road, and kept shouting the name of Maggie's husband.
But it seemed that they got nothing along the way.
"Logically speaking, since this place is so remote, it should be at least twenty to thirty kilometers away before there are people … Could it be that they encountered a large beast or something?"
Branham suddenly put forward his hypothesis. Len couldn't help bumping this guy.
"Mrs. Maggie, don't worry, this is not a dangerous area where brown bears come out. Even if there are beasts, I think there are more squirrels. "Len hurried to comfort her.
"It's here. Our car was parked here just now." Maggie stopped the car at this time.
"Then let's get off the car and look around carefully to see if we can find anything." Arex suggested.
Mrs. Maggie nodded, and then pointed to a direction, "My husband's mobile phone was found in front of us."
Then they walked towards this direction and walked into the forest. Their shoes stepped on the dry branches and leaves, which sounded unusually loud.
"I suddenly feel something."
Walking behind them.
Branham lowered his voice and whispered to Len, "Later we will meet Mrs. Maggie's husband's … dead body!"
Len gave a start and hurriedly said, "Don't talk nonsense!"
Branham smiled, "Don't you feel it's very exciting? When we found the dead body, he suddenly shouted 'Wow!' and stood up! Then he chased after you, and kept chasing after you! What's wrong? I'm just saying, why are you so scared? You're so timid, why did you sleep with Allie? "
"Branham, are we … lost?" Len swallowed his saliva and shone the flashlight in front.
