Most girls were afraid of ghost stories, just like how most girls loved ghost stories.
There was nothing wrong with the above sentence. Really.
Lin Xue didn't have any talent in storytelling. From a literary point of view, what she had described to us was nothing more than a running account that didn't use any rhetoric. However, her story was truthful, which made the story of the old house on the deserted island even more fascinating.
We didn't suspect that Lin Xue was making up a ghost story to scare us because she swore to the heavens that she was telling the truth. Based on our understanding of her during this period of time, at least in this case, her words were completely believable. Although the story of the old house on the island being completely demolished and reappearing the next day was something she had heard from the elders in her family, it wasn't necessarily believable. However, the fact that there was an old house on an uninhabited island that was built by an unknown person and abandoned for unknown reasons was enough to pique our interest. Moreover, Grandpa Lin had also strictly forbidden the younger generation of his family to come to this island. Perhaps this prohibition was effective for everyone in the Lin family, but it seemed that to a mischievous girl like Lin Xue, such a prohibition was as good as nonexistent. This made us even more fascinated by the mysterious old house.
Since we didn't want to be struck down by food poisoning, Lin Xue and I were strictly forbidden by the group of chefs to get within five meters of the food. Even Sandora, who could barely cook without dying, was allowed to stay behind to help. From this, it could be seen that my and Lin Xue's culinary skills were truly amazing …
Little Bubble was also chased over. It wasn't that she wanted to help, but Shallow Shallow was afraid that she would steal the charcoal to eat …
"Ever since you left this island when you were young, you haven't returned?" I turned my head to look at the lush trees behind me. I was curious as to why this adventurous troublemaker hadn't returned to this island.
When we talked about our childhood, Lin Xue seemed to be especially talkative. She revealed a nostalgic expression and slowly said, "At that time, Xiao Feng and I were still young. Although we were curious about this place, the adults in our family didn't allow us to come here. After a long time, our interest naturally waned. Then, because of the incident, we joined an organization and had to deal with all kinds of strange things every day. Gradually, we forgot about this island. Today, I don't know why, but I suddenly thought of this place … Speaking of which, Grandpa has always been worried that my little brother and I would sneak back to this forbidden place out of curiosity. When we were young, he often sent people to secretly follow us. At that time, I was studying in a nearby elementary school. Later, because of this incident, we were even transferred …"
"No wonder you could sneak here. So, you lived nearby when you were young. So, you didn't grow up in China?" "How should I put it?
"How should I put it? Half of the time was in China, and the other half was abroad. Grandpa always wanted me and my brother to receive the best education, so he always let us go to those aristocratic schools with a long history in the world. Later, my father said that it was better for children not to wander away from home all year round. Grandpa thought it was very reasonable, so he brought us back to China. Although Grandpa was famous for his wisdom and erudition to the outside world, he and my father were always like this when it came to Feng and I. Now that I think about it, they really couldn't do anything about it …"
You didn't think that way back then, right? I said that in my heart. For such a young child to be sent so far away from home by an adult, anyone would feel resentful. But now that I've grown up, I finally understand the painstaking efforts of my parents. Lin Xue is already considered not bad. Many children, even when they grow up, they will still find it hard to understand the painstaking efforts of their parents.
"What about you?" Lin Xue sighed about her beautiful childhood that was drowned in the flood of time. Suddenly, she changed the topic and talked about me, "What were you like when you were a child? The tragic and rough childhood of a leader of an Empire … This must be a super interesting story … "
"Something like that." I purposely pretended to be sad. "I was an orphan. I didn't even know what my parents looked like. It was my older sister's family that adopted me. But when I was very young, my adoptive parents also passed away. Then, my older sister and I depended on each other. That kind of childhood was filled with worries about life every day. There's nothing much to say …"
"Ah, I'm sorry, I …" Lin Xue immediately revealed an uneasy expression. She really wanted to slap herself. She had clearly found out about this guy's background during her investigation. Why did she ask him so brainlessly? What should I do now?
But when she anxiously raised her head to apologize to me, she saw a heartless smiling face.
I chuckled and held down Little Bubble beside me to stop her from running around. I said, "Although my childhood was a little bitter, but now, I'm living quite happily …"
"Wow, you bastard, you actually dare to tease this big miss!" Lin Xue glared at me. Then, she swung her fist towards my chin, "Turn into a shooting star in the sky!"
Hehe, this Emperor Schilling has been strengthened many times by Sandora. In addition to my daily training, how could I be so easily hit by a brat like you!
I dodge!
Three seconds later, I landed with a bang …
Wah wah wah, I was wrong, I was truly wrong. Dodging in front of a Prophet was the same as having cola in your brain. I hadn't even moved, but Lin Xue had already simulated where I would land …
I lay on the ground with tears streaming down my cheeks. Lin Xue walked next to me and looked down at me. Then, she laughed so hard that the ground shook. Little Bubble ran next to me and squatted down while muttering something in a language that no one could understand. Then, he pinched my chin that had already gone off course and exerted force. * Crack! *
I knew that she was trying to help me fix my chin, but it was obvious that she had wrist strength that far exceeded what she appeared to be capable of. That was why my chin was slanted in the other direction … Little Bubble looked at my deformed chin in confusion. She muttered something and reached out her little hand again …
Since a certain unlucky man couldn't chew due to his dislocated chin, this rare seaside barbecue ended with one person drinking soup in pain and everyone happily eating meat.
"I originally wanted to let Chen Jun taste my cooking," Sandora said unhappily. She looked at Pandora curled up in my arms with jealousy as she told me the story of the "Thousand and One Battles".
Shallow Shallow looked at my obviously swollen chin with heartache. Then, she lowered her head and continued to pinch Little Bubble's face to punish this little rascal who had severely attacked me many times.
I could clearly feel the little war maniac in my arms twisting her body slightly — — she was trying to hold back her laughter.
It was rare for Pandora to finally gain the upper hand in the battle against Little Bubble.
"Okay okay, didn't Sandora say that this pervert's recovery ability is twenty times that of a normal person." Lin Xue didn't give up any opportunity to attack me, "I reckon it won't be a problem for him to have a shouting match with Guo Degang in the future. Let's discuss about tomorrow's expedition."
"Ha, I'm filled with anticipation when I think about tomorrow's expedition to such an interesting place." Shallow Shallow didn't seem to be afraid at all, even though she was nervously nestled in my arms when Lin Xue was talking about the legend of the deserted island. "Lin Xue, do you think there will be spirits or something like that?"
"Aren't you afraid at all?" Lin Xue wasn't the careless type like Shallow Shallow. She was still a little afraid of ghosts and gods. Even though she was the initiator of this expedition, she still maintained a high level of vigilance.
Shallow Shallow finally let go of the teary-eyed Little Bubble in her arms. She stood up and said in a heroic manner, "What are you afraid of?! Even if there is a ghost, I will punish him on behalf of the heavens! "
Her words weren't false. Back then, even Caesars couldn't move in Shallow Shallow's time cage. I didn't believe that the local ghosts and monsters on Earth could be more powerful than Caesars …
As for whether there were ghosts in this world — — I even met a legendary character like the Protoss. If there weren't at least two or three ghosts and monsters, I would feel that it wasn't real!
Little Bubble, who had finally regained her freedom, slipped into Sandora's arms. The latter immediately took over Shallow Shallow's unfinished task: a punishment filled with motherly love …
It seemed that the little fellow didn't know what mistake she had made. At this time, other than Lin Xue who was rejoicing in her misfortune, no matter where she hid, she wouldn't be able to escape this punishment …
Amidst our laughter and Little Bubble's bewildered cries, Lin Xue could only helplessly hold her forehead with her hand and say, "Which ghost would encounter a superhuman army like you? He must have had eight lifetimes of bad luck …"
