AWB Chapter 293 Going Home
Chapter 293 Going Home
The atmosphere between them became increasingly tense, and at this tense moment.
Suddenly someone spoke in a trembling voice.
"I...I say, are we missing someone?"
Lin Lin shuddered when she heard this. She stopped, turned her head and looked at the trembling man, then looked at the others.
Everyone looked around nervously. Just when Lin Lin was about to open her mouth and scold the other party for talking nonsense, she found that Sun De, who was walking on the edge of the crowd, had disappeared at some point.
Looking at the place where Sun De suddenly disappeared, Lin Lin swallowed the words she wanted to say. The atmosphere around them became even more tense. Everyone was tense and ready to escape at any time.
At this moment, a roar suddenly came from the deep forest. The roar brought a hurricane that blew up the surrounding sand, and there was no light in the dense forest.
Lin Lin looked at the ominous scene in front of her and swallowed hard. Just as she swallowed her saliva, she heard a wailing sound beside her.
The woman cried heartbreakingly, and a big mouth rose from the ground, holding the woman standing there in its mouth.
Lin Lin hurriedly activated her magic weapon and looked towards the woman through the wind and sand with difficulty. At this moment, there was a huge creature like an earthworm there, with half of its body exposed. Its whole body was earthy brown, with no skin or hair, only a layer of thin film-like skin. Liquid was flowing and surging under the skin. Its huge mouth was open, and a woman was clamped between its teeth. It was the person who had quarreled with Sun De before.
The woman's face was terrified, her whole body turned pale with fear, her clothes were torn at some point, and her sharp teeth had bitten through half of her body.
The woman screamed heartbreakingly: "Brother Sun, Brother Sun, this is not what we agreed on. I am Xiao Qian."
"You caught the wrong person. Lin Lin and the others are over there."
Before the woman could finish her words, the huge mouth closed, and the woman was bitten off at the waist. The upper half of her body fell from the air and hit the ground. Blood gushed out from her waist and mouth. She crawled with difficulty for a few times, and then fell silent.
The sudden change left everyone unawares as the brutal chewing sounds echoed in their ears.
"Escape!"
The screams of terror resounded through the sky. Although most of the people who were isolated by the wind and sand could not see through the wind and sand, they could still hear the woman's voice and chewing sounds clearly.
Sometimes seeing something is not necessarily more terrifying than not seeing it. Although they did not see the cruel scene, the cruel picture clearly appeared in their minds through their imagination. Some people were even scared to pee their pants because of their imagination. The air was not only filled with blood, but also with a foul smell.
Lin Lin, who saw the whole process, was completely awakened by the shout.
She cursed angrily and used all her life's knowledge to get as far away from this place as possible.
They were fleeing in an unknown direction, and she had no interest in caring about either Honeydew Melon or his men.
Her heart was beating violently, as if it was about to explode in the next second.
Somewhere in the distance, Honeydew Melon, who was lying on the ground with his nose buried in the soil, raised his head. His misty eyes seemed to sense something and he turned his head involuntarily to look.
"Oh?"
"Triggered?" The confusion in his eyes gradually dissipated, the corners of his mouth widened, and finally he laughed wildly.
……
Night fell, and after traveling for many days, Ji Mo finally arrived at his first destination.
On the edge of a towering cliff, there is a small mound. After a year of wind and rain, weeds have already grown out. At the end of the season, the corners of his mouth drooped. The cousin walked over with a bit of loneliness, walked to the pit that he had dug with his own hands, and buried the coffin in the mound with his own hands. He moved gently, as if he was afraid of waking up his parents who were sitting there. He tiptoed to pull out the grass growing on the mound.
Carefully leaning against the mound, I looked up at the starry sky.
"Before I knew it, it would be a year."
Ji Mo murmured softly, as if he was having a quiet conversation with two very familiar people behind him.
“It feels like a long time has passed.”
He stood up on his left leg, placed his right leg flat, placed his left hand on his left knee, and raised his head to look at the starry sky, just like when he was a child, leaning against his father and gazing at the starry sky.
But time flies, and everything has changed. The once upright man and the gentle mother have now turned into dry bones, lying in the coffin on the mound of earth. The response from many years ago is now just a memory.
"Is this what they call, things have changed and people have changed?"
As Ji Mo spoke, he couldn't help but chuckle, and two raindrops fell on his smile.
He raised his hand to wipe the raindrops from his face, and his voice became choked.
"Hey, why is it raining?"
The raindrops became more and more, and in the end they could not be stopped. He blinked his blurry eyes and tried carefully to see the stars in the sky clearly.
But my eyes became more and more blurry.
Unconsciously, the raindrops became fewer and fewer, and the weeds nourished by the rain slowly grew. A man was lying on the small mound of earth. He only had one arm left, and his body was dirty. He was like a wanderer who had been away for many years and had returned home but could no longer see the people he had met before.
That night he had a dream. That night he returned to the past, sitting in his mother's arms, his little hands holding the pendant hanging around his mother's neck, shaking it gently.
His mother gently pinched his cheek, lowering her head from time to time to touch him. She grabbed Ji Mo's hand and the pendant in it, smiling gently: "Xiao Mo, I'll leave this pendant to you in the future, okay?"
A cold wind blew from afar, waking up Ji Mo who was lying on the mound. Ji Mo opened his eyes in a daze.
My eyes are so dry, red and swollen that they hurt. I don’t know if it’s because last night’s rain was poisonous or what.
At the end of the season, he habitually raised his right hand to rub his eyes, but found that his right arm was already empty.
He shook his head and raised his left hand to rub his red and swollen eyes.
"It's been a long time since I've felt this way."
"Probably, there won't be a next time."
He stood up and looked at the mound behind him, his eyes full of attachment.
If possible, he would like to stay here for the rest of his life. This is the farthest and closest place to them.
However, staying here was just a delusion at the end of the season. Staying for one night had already wasted too much of his time.
At the end of the season, he turned his head away stubbornly, unwilling to look again, nor daring to look again.
It was not until he had walked a long way that he could no longer control his temper and quietly turned his head to look at the mound that had long disappeared.
He took one last reluctant look and turned to leave.
On the distant cliff, a white cloud floated by, swaying gently, as if waving to the traveler, helping him to have everything go well and wishing him happiness for the rest of his life.
Last night’s dream reminded Ji Mo of many things, and there was also an invisible call in his heart.
He changed his destination temporarily and wanted to go home again.
Return to the real home again.
