God does not fulfill people's wishes.
Chi Feichi felt sleepy quickly coming over him. When he opened his eyes again, he was surrounded by fire.
No need to recall it, he knew clearly that he was dreaming again.
He stood in a hall surrounded by thick smoke and fire, with running men and women shouting, and beside him, an eleven or twelve-year-old girl burst into tears.
"Woooooooo..."
Chi Feichi: "..."
Little girl: "Wow wow wow..."
Chi Feichi: "..."
Little girl: "Ugh...wuwu..."
Chi Feichi: "..."
Little girl: "Woo...wu..."
"do not Cry!"
Chi Feichi found that he could not move away from the source of the noise, so he couldn't bear to say something. At the same time, a familiar bone ringing sound came from under the black rope hanging around the little girl's neck.
"Treasure?" the little girl said timidly. She reached out from under the collar of her skirt and pulled out the bone pendant. She held it carefully in her hand and cried, "I'm so scared..."
Chi Feichi looked carefully and could see the appearance of the well-behaved little Xanti in the girl's eyebrows. He said "Hmm" and let the bones make a soft sound to express comfort.
Although the fire in the hall looked scary, it was not a completely enclosed space, but the way out was blocked by the fire. It could not burn here for a while. There were still sounds of many people using water to put out the fire outside, so the chance of death was low.
Forget it, the person you choose is your own responsibility. .
And he is worthy of being the one he chose. He can even cry in so many different styles.
"Dip..."
A melodious melody comes from the bones.
"Are you comforting me?" Sandy looked around and clenched the bones in her hands, "You will protect me, right?"
Chi Feichi felt that the temperature around her was a bit high. He tried to activate the fire in his abdomen. He found that the temperature next to him seemed to be a little lower, so he stood nearby to help the little girl cool down.
I don't know if it's his imagination...
"It's not that hot anymore," Sandy's eyes flashed with joy, holding the bone pendant in her hands, "Thank you."
Chi Feichi: "..."
It doesn't seem to be his illusion.
And he is worthy of being the person he chose. He is quiet, well-behaved, sensible, and very good.
…
The fire was put out, and except for one or two people who were burned and choked by smoke, everyone in the hall was safe.
Someone brought Sandy back from the hall with the blackened walls. The little girl whispered "thank you" to the bone pendant, and then commanded people in a decent manner and helped treat their injuries.
She still used her great-great-grandmother's ghost therapy. One bowl was given to those who were burned, one bowl to those who were fainted, one bowl to those who were feeling unwell, and one bowl to those who felt they were in good condition.
Chi Feichi took a look and found that there was nothing wrong with the overall medication. After all, Diana had recorded the prescriptions.
As for the portion size... Diana tried it out with others, and it was generally fine.
Then it'll be fine.
After the drug was actively or passively administered, the crowd had to sincerely express their gratitude. Even the three children who had been forced to cry by the drug were politely bowed and thanked at the request of their family members.
"You're welcome," Sandy smiled coyly, "This is what I should do."
After the fire, the speed of time suddenly accelerated, even faster than before when Diana was in her later years.
Compared to Diana, Sandy's character is much more cautious and gentle, and her thoughts are more delicate. In addition to continuing to study herbal medicine, she also adjusts the portions bit by bit as accurately as possible.
Chi Feichi would occasionally seize the opportunity in the fleeting time to make the bones ring as a reminder when Sandy adjusted the portion, and then watched Sandy take out the herbs every time after studying them. A new piece of silk cloth to gently wipe the bone pendant.
The little girl has grown into a grown-up girl, and there is a faint trace of Diana's appearance between her eyebrows, but because of her gentleness, it is impossible to associate the two with each other.
Chi Feichi's activity space is no longer limited to Santi's side. Occasionally, he can wander around the rooms around Santi and look at some small objects of this era. When he discovers something new, he makes his bones crack with a 'hmm' sound.
Sandy, who grew up to be a big girl, was also very understanding of "bones" and began to collect all kinds of novel objects for her own bones until she got married and had children, until she grew old.
Probably because she became the head of the family at a young age, Sandy chose a distant relative with the same surname as "Montgomarie" as her husband. After meeting her twice, she felt that he was pleasing to the eye and considerate, so they got married naturally. She had a good personality with him. Tolerating each other can be regarded as harmonious and harmonious.
I don't know if it was because of his experience with Diana that Chi Feichi looked away, or if it was because of his intuition. This time he looked at this cabbage-grabbing pig much more favorably.
Sandy ages more slowly than the average person. While her husband looks like he is in his seventies or eighties, she looks only in her fifties. After her husband leaves, she becomes more and more gentle and tolerant, making her look dignified and kind. .
At the same time, Sandy, like her great-great-grandmother, tortured her husband and her son to death.
However, Sandy failed to break the record and survive her grandson.
Passed down from generation to generation, members of the Montgomery family live longer than others. There are also members of the clan who leave the family and develop far away because of struggles, greater ambitions, and different ideas.
In her later years, Sandy not only asked her children to help her collect objects for Bones, and sat in the sun to rub the bones, she also liked to pay attention to her own children.
Chi Feichi's range of activities was getting wider and wider, and he would occasionally wander to other places to see the children, or take a nap under the elder tree that Sandy had transplanted while Sandy was sitting in the herb garden basking in the sun.
When I close my eyes and open them again, years pass.
When he opened his eyes again, the dream had not ended. Standing under the tree was a fat little boy, about eight or nine years old, looking up at him. Nothing was reflected in his pupils, but he felt that the other person was looking at him.
After watching for a long time, the little fat man approached the tree trunk and asked nervously in a low voice, "Are you a tree demon?"
Chi Fei was too lazy to answer and returned to the cabin where Sandy lived.
"Lawrence! How could you just run into great-grandmother's yard? You are great-grandmother's heir and the future of the Montgomery family..."
Vaguely, he heard the young woman's scolding from behind, and the fat man just now responded.
"Kick me out, mother, I don't want to be the heir, nor the future of the Montgomery family..."
Chi Feichi: "..."
Look at Diana's unfulfilled descendants.
The sound of the little fat man being beaten to the point of crying and howling was soon heard in the herbal garden. After Chi Feichi entered the wooden house, the alarmed Sandy went out to check the situation again.
Chi Feichi also followed out, watching the little fat man running towards Sandy and wanting to hug her knees to act coquettishly. When the little fat man's muddy hands touched Sandy's knees, he said, "Santi, choose him." ', making the bones make a specified melodious sound.
Sandy couldn't hear Chi Feichi's words and looked at the bones hanging on her chest in surprise, or...
"The bone jade is ringing, Lawrence."
"Yes..." The little fat man looked blankly at Santi's necklace pendant, and then at Chi Feichi who was standing behind Santi.
Chi Feichi was sure that the little fat man couldn't hear what he said, so he lost interest in playing outside and went back to Guyu.
Yes, it shouldn't be called 'bones' now.
After Diana kept rubbing it with her fingers, the bones that were originally not smooth on the surface had long since become smooth. After Sandy wiped it with silk cloth every day and applied oil from time to time, the bones were coated with pulp and became white and moist. Like jade.
Confirmed in disguise - everything can be settled.
Speaking of which, unlike Diana, who calls her "bones, bones", Sandy has almost never called her "bones". It has always been "a treasure passed down by the family", "bone jade", and she seems to have always thought it was a strange piece of stone. Jade, I remember hearing Diana call her "Bones", and I suspected that "Bone" was Jade's name or another name.
After going through the selection process at the Pai Pai Station, Lawrence, who was unwilling to be the head of the family, became the head of the family and put on the bone jade. From watching Chi Feichi floating into the bone jade in horror, to feeling annoyed, "I shouldn't have talked to you in the first place." ’, and then faced Chi Feichi frankly in Gu Yuli, and planned plans to escape from the family again and again.
That is, when Lawrence was executing the escape plan, Chi Feichi discovered that he could simply talk to Sandy when she was asleep, but whether Sandy would remember it after she woke up was another matter.
Xiandi was naturally concerned about the news about the heir, and kept it in mind, so the little fat man was caught every time he ran, and his chubby body was losing weight day by day, revealing the inheritance of family genes. Handsome features.
Lawrence ran away for three years, and Chi Fei Chi revealed the secret for three years. Until Sandy's death, Chi Fei Chi sent off Diana's old song to send Sandy away. Probably infected by the solemn and solemn atmosphere, Lawrence suddenly I have grown up a lot.
But nature never changes, and Lawrence's dreams won't succumb to external pressure.
Chi Feichi watched Lawrence, who had officially become the head of the family, prepare to become a general. He studied, trained, and ran around. He also started experimenting with poisons with incredible imagination. At the age of twenty, he handed over family affairs to his trusted brothers. , he went out with his own baggage and became a ghost poisoner active in the war.
He is worthy of being the person he chose, and his initial optimism is not in vain. He can take him to see a bigger world and meet more strange people.
He even followed Lawrence and met the witch from the Red Magic family.
It was a large family comparable to the Montgomery family, with strict 'direct lineage' rules within it. The witch heir that Lawrence met had the same red hair and eyes as Koizumi Anko. During the 'friendly discussion', Lawrence With his own abilities, he can even compete with a witch heir who actually knows magic.
Of course, I didn't forget to use him as a 'reminder whistle' during this period.
This was a man who was restless, trouble-making, and fond of using bones and jade. Chi Feichi accompanied Lawrence through war-torn places, killing people and setting fire to each other, and captured in the fragments of time that flew by so quickly. On several occasions, I warned Lawrence of the coming night attack and helped protect Lawrence from the fire twice.
Lawrence returned to the family at the age of twenty-seven. Even after marrying a wife and having children, he was restless and still interested in being his own evil master.
The changes brought about by growth are probably that Lawrence became like Sandy, starting to collect all kinds of novelty things for him, and he would also use the best silk cloth given by the monarch to wipe the bones and jade. Occasionally, when he was at home, he would go back to the herbal garden. Inside, he pointed at the elder tree and asked the bone, "Do you want to go enjoy the shade?" Even if he didn't get a response from Chi Feichi, he still enjoyed it.
