I didn"t know what the old man meant, but I did what he said and walked straight into the backyard.As soon as I walked into the backyard, I saw the old bald dog. They were making a lot of noise. They seemed to be arguing about something.
I don"t know what the old man asked me to do here. I just looked at those guys in a daze.
After a while, I saw the red tripod-bird singing excitedly, while the bald old dog and others drooped their heads as if the quarrel had come to an end.
Then the tripod-bird flew directly to me and landed on my shoulder.
"Boy, let"s go. I will accompany you. I haven"t been out for a long time. Finally, I can go out and breathe!"
A stream of the voice appeared in my ear, which sounded like a rascal.
I stared at the three-legged bird that fell on my shoulder and demented.
Is the bird talking? How could it speak?
Perhaps he sees the shock on my face, and her eyes flashed a little narrow and said: "Don"t be so surprised! I used to speak the human language many years ago. Don"t forget, I am a demon!"
Oh, then no wonder!
Steady the shock in my heart, I blinked my eyes and said cautiously: "Are you going to Lingnan with me?"
"Yes! That ghost place is not very peaceful. If you go alone, it"s normal for you to be swallowed with your skin and bones. If I"m with you, I can at least save your life! Said the three-legged bird.
Although I do not know the strength of this bird, when it said so, my heart actually raised a little sense of security.
"Thank you!" I responded with some grat.i.tude and then asked: "You... Why do you want to help me?
I still know that there is no pie falling from the sky.
I don"t know these demons very well. Why do they help me?
Anyone of them, such as the bald old dog, looked at me with complicated eyes and did not respond. Three-legged bird, on the other hand, says impatiently: "How come you have so many questions, just like you, is it enough? Of course, we do have some plans, but you don"t have to worry. It"s absolutely not bad for you. I"ll tell you when you come back from Lingnan!"
with that, the three-legged bird urged me to go quickly, it seems that it really held up here for too long, eager to go out and turn around.
However, if I take it out like this, it will definitely be regarded as a rare animal to watch.
This feature of its appearance is so conspicuous!
After I laughed bitterly and expressed my worries, the three-legged bird stunned for a moment, then s.h.i.+vered a little reluctantly.
Suddenly, a fiery red circle appeared on its body, covering its body.
In breathing, its appearance has undergone tremendous changes.
Originally bright and beautiful at a glance, you can see that he is not a mortal thing. In a twinkling of an eye, it becomes a small grey sparrow, can no longer be ordinary.
In this way, the three-legged bird seems very unwilling and muttered something.
So there"s nothing to worry about. Say goodbye to the bald old dog and leave the backyard directly.
When leaving the Herbal Hall, the old fellow explained a few words, saying that when I got to Lingnan, I might as well call Ho Pei. After all, she owed me a favor, the Ministry of National Security still had a great influence on Lingnan, which was helpful to me.
After leaving the Herbal Hall, I took a taxi to the station and got on the train to Lingnan directly.
When I got on the train, the three-legged bird told me that he would wait for me at Lingnan first, and then he flew away in a hurry. I was too lazy to ignore him.
After a day and night"s train ride to Lingnan, I found a hotel to rest for a night and called Ho Pei.
After the phone was connected, I told her about my arrival in Lingnan. I didn"t say much about the specific situation but said that I was going to Meng"s villa. It was estimated that there would be some trouble at that time.
He Pei at the other end of the phone was silent for a moment, then said softly: "In Lingnan, the Mengs has great influence. Although the Ministry of National Security has great influence, it does not want to easily clash with the Mengs. I try my best to help, but I can"t guarantee anything. If people don"t give face then, I can"t..."
After a few chats, I hung up the phone and went to bed to rest.
I didn"t expect Ho Pei to help too much. Faced with the so-called Mengs, I was very upset and nervous with a little excitement.
I haven"t seen my parents since I was a child. I finally met them this time. It"s false to say I"m not excited.
Now that we are here, we can only take one step at a time.
Early the next morning, I was energetic, I took my backpack, got out of the hotel.
According to the previous address left by Meng Zi Yang, I went to the place where Mengs lived.
Lingnan, with a vast landscape, is a land of mountains, surrounded by mountains, and its folk customs are tough.
Meng Zi Yang"s address is not in the city, but in the mountains in the suburbs. It took me a lot of effort to find this place, and I came to the foot of this mountain range.
On the mountainside of this mountain, there is a large villa, where is the Meng family.
I don"t know where the three-legged bird was. I am in Lingnan now and haven"t seen him yet.
Looking at the huge building on the mountainside, I took a deep breath and walked straight up the road.
Grandpa once said that there are only two of us left in our family. In addition to the words Meng Zi Yang said before, I can infer that we must be extremely unpopular in the Meng family.
My father has been unable to leave the Meng family for many years, and my grandfather took me away for so many years. All this shows that some of the Meng family want to completely destroy our pulse.
Today, I came here, not to be captured easily.
In addition to the urgent need to meet my parents, my heart is also full of determination. Some people want me to die, and I won"t let them pa.s.s.
I went up to the mountain step by step to the mountainside and came to the grand mountain villa.
In front of the gate of the villa, a few people in grey uniforms, looking like security guards, were gathering together and talking and laughing in a low voice.
The security guards frowned slightly when I came to the gate of the villa, and one of them said: "Who are you? This is Meng"s Villa. Leave now!
Probably because of my plain clothes and my backpack, they thought I was a mountain climber or something.
I don"t want to talk too much nonsense to these security guards and say in a calm voice: "Please announce that Meng Zi Chen is here!"
