Jin Yu's tone of voice sounded very flippant to Zhou Yu's ears. They were obviously talking about a life-and-death topic, but the other party didn't seem to care at all.
"Do you think Zhou Yu will kill you?" he asked.
"I don't think it will happen. It has nothing to do with the girl's wishes. As long as I get too close to her, she will definitely kill me. So the only way for both of us to survive is to let me leave and hide. In a place she doesn't know." Jin Yu replied.
"She likes you, right...has she discussed children with you? If you get married in the future and have a girl, she will leave when the child is a little older."
"……girl?"
"Generally speaking, girls are born. Boys are relatively rare. There are some... but the inheritance of men is not so smooth."
At this point, Jin Yu suddenly paused and quickly added: "However, male inheritance also exists. It is true that children born through ordinary births will not inherit the male's abilities, but other methods can be used."
Zhou Yu was at a loss to understand what she said. He looked at the other person deeply and asked: "Who are you?"
Jin Yu smiled: "It's a very light question, but this question cannot be explained clearly in a few words. In short, you should think of me as a witch first. This explanation is the best to understand. But I will not fly around on a broom. , I won’t poison anyone who comes to see me for treatment, don’t worry, Dr. Zhou.”
"Then last night I..."
"Oh, that was indeed what I did. I can't fly or escape, but I can also do some useless little tricks. I used to have some more powerful abilities, but they have declined since I gave birth to children."
For some reason, Zhou Yu felt that the smoke in the room was getting thicker even though Jin Yu had put out the cigarette. In that bitter and sour smell, he simply couldn't concentrate and listen to what the other person was saying.
"I can make people dream. As long as I match the materials, I can do it anytime, anywhere. Of course, I can't completely control the content of the dream, and I can't go in with an iron claw and a chainsaw to chop you. At most, it will affect your dreams. It’s just a nightmare. How about it, a pretty harmless ability, right?”
"Is it really that harmless?" Zhou Yu asked somewhat rudely. His throat still hurts.
"It's not that it's not lethal at all. This kind of dream is like deep hypnosis. If you stay in it for too long, you will die. Have you heard of the experiment where the police cut their wrists with ice blades? Although it is an urban legend, it is more or less the same. That's the principle. As long as you believe in the state in the dream, your body will automatically synchronize with your consciousness. And you are someone who has been in a small vortex. As the saying goes, your soul is unstable and you can easily be hooked in. "
Jin Yu stood up as she spoke, tore off the torn paper from the window sill near the door, and handed it to Zhou Yu: "This is the 'picture' you saw last night. But it seems that the experience of entering the vortex has made you You became resistant to the dream, and before you completely fell into it, you destroyed the picture with a knife."
The black paper she handed over had silver lines drawn on it, and the color was very dark, like dry mercury. The silver lines formed complex geometric figures with abstract symbols in between, none of which Zhou Yu could understand.
"……witchcraft?"
"To be precise, it's a seance. Different from the nightmare spells that curse people, such as the aversion to victory, I usually call something out... You don't need to know these in detail. This kind of ability is different from knowledge. It cannot be learned. It’s useless even if you understand the principles.”
As if she didn't want Zhou Yu to look at the black paper for a long time, she immediately balled up the paper cut in half and lit it with a lighter in front of Zhou Yu. There wasn't much oil left in the lighter, and I had to hit it several times before it started to catch fire. Jin Yu grunted in displeasure, burned the paper and threw the lighter into the corner: "I'm going to the county town to buy some again."
"...Don't you find it troublesome to clean the house?"
"Don't you see the blanket on the ground? Just roll it up and throw it into the river." Jin Yu said impatiently, "Don't look at me like that. The doctor's occupational disease of mysophobia is useless in the mountains. This place Although it’s clean, it’s just too inconvenient. Every time I go to the county town to buy things, I have to borrow a tractor from the village.”
Zhou Yu no longer wanted to ask any more questions. He didn't want to care about whether Jin Yu had a Class G driver's license. He didn't know what expression to put on when he thought of the scene where she was sitting on the driver's seat of the tractor with a cigarette hanging sideways and a fierce look on her face, accompanied by black smoke billowing towards the county town. If it weren't for the other person's appearance as irrefutable proof, he would never have believed that this was Zhou Yu's biological mother. To describe it as shattered was an understatement.
"In short, my daughter and I have similar abilities. Whether she can use it or not, the qualification itself is dangerous. Not to mention that the corpse can be used as a material, her death itself is a powerful ritual. I must The other party probably also started for this purpose."
"Do you have any idea who it is?"
"No, I don't know at all." Jin Yu replied cheerfully.
"Don't stare at me with that look, young man. There are many people like me in this world, and they usually don't bother each other, but it's not surprising to occasionally attack the same kind of people, because we don't have a unified organization and rules internally. This is why I hid in such a remote place." Jin Yu waved his hand to the four walls of this square house, "Although I have almost become an ordinary person after giving birth, the body is still of some use... In short, the possibility There are too many suspects all over the world."
"...Since you knew there would be such a danger, why didn't you warn Zhou Yu in advance?"
"——Do you think she doesn't know her situation?"
Jin Yu suddenly asked in a suddenly cold voice: "Dr. Zhou, if you had known about this situation, what would you have done? Abandoned your family and career and moved her to the deep mountains and forests with you? That is not the case for three people. Five years, but a whole life. You were born in a modern city, right? Can you really endure that kind of life? Can you really abandon everyone else? Why? "
Zhou Yu couldn't answer for a while. Seeing him like this, Jin Yu sighed again and said: "There is no need for such a heavy expression, I am just talking. Originally, the probability of this happening is very low, because everyone has their own inherited techniques. Attacking others is very risky...and in the final analysis, our so-called rituals and witchcraft are just tricks to scare children in this world. Do you think dreaming will be more useful than bombers and computers? So we This kind of people will not break the law casually. Most of them just want to live a good life in modern society. Like my daughter's disappearance, this is a situation that only happens once in two to three hundred years. It was her luck. Worse."
After saying these words, she lowered her head, and the bangs on her forehead blocked her expression. Before Zhou Yu could react, she quickly raised her head and said, "That's all I should tell you. Do you have any other questions? Make it clear first, and don't ask me again about whether Zhou Yu is still alive. Since there are no Even with the body, I can’t guarantee that she’s 100% dead. But the probability of her surviving until now is even smaller than if there’s an alien living in your house.”
Hearing her words, Zhou Yu strangely did not feel any sadness. Maybe half a year has made him a little numb. Before he actually sees Zhou Yu's remains, no one's words will make him feel uneasy anymore. He asked in a calm manner: "You said before that there was a way to find her, right?"
"Yes, yes, but I can't guarantee the success rate. Not only the success rate of finding her, but I can't even guarantee your safety. Are you sure?"
Seeing Zhou Yu nod without hesitation, she took out another native cigarette from the small woven bag beside her leg. There was no lighter, so this time she lit the cigarette with a match. The bitter smoke smell like traditional Chinese medicine filled the air again.
"If you want to find her, it's easy. Then go back to that dream."
