Tomb Raiders: After living in seclusion for a hundred years, my little brother invited me out!

Chapter 355 Heart Devouring Illusion
"what?"

After Wu Xie took the photo, he raised the flashlight in his hand to look at it, and was stunned.

Fatty Wang also stretched his neck to look over, and saw that the photo was a vicissitudes woman with gray hair.

It can be seen that the woman is very haggard,

It is a kind of "snake god tree", which is said to be a wish tree that can satisfy any request as long as you donate blood.

"This, is this aunt?"

Wu Xie opened her mouth in surprise and looked at Old Itch.

Wu Xie didn't expect that after only a few years of seeing each other, Lao Xie's mother was already so old.

Remember that Old Itch's mother has always been very young and beautiful, she was called 'beautiful auntie' by him before.

"good."

Lao Tiao nodded fiercely, covered his face and wept as he spoke:
"Didn't I tell you before that my mother had an accident and needed a lot of money? Actually, I lied to you, because my mother died when I was in prison."

"What? Auntie died?"

Wu Xie was also confused.

Although he hasn't returned to his hometown for three years, he still knows that if there is any funeral or happy event in his hometown, his family will still call him.

Besides, their family and Lao Tiao's family can be regarded as neighbors, if his mother really passed away, he would go back to pay homage no matter what.

But it seems that for so long, the family has not said anything about the old itchy family.

The old itchy continued to speak:

"Yes, my mother passed away, just a few days before I was released from prison, when I returned home, I found my mother was dead, lying on her favorite sewing machine alone, her whole body It's all rotten and full of maggots..."

Speaking of this, the old itchy choked up even more.

Zhang Yang moved his mouth slightly, but didn't say anything.

Wu Xie didn't know what to say, she just looked at Lao Xie with sympathy.

The old itchy reached out his hand to touch the tears, and continued to speak:

"After I buried my mother, I was lying alone on the bed at home, and my mind was full of what my mother looked like before she died.

In this way, I stayed at home for three days, and I was already dizzy from hunger. I thought I was going to see my mother like this.

Unexpectedly, I smelled the aroma of food. As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw my mother cooking in the kitchen wearing an apron.

I was dumbfounded at the time, I thought I imagined it, but my mother came into the house and asked me to get up to eat, and asked me if I was starving?

I didn't dare to agree at the time, and suddenly the aunt next door came out and asked my mother to go out and said that she had something to say.

At this time, I realized that maybe my mother really came back.Because others saw her as I did. "

"Your mother is really back?"

Wu Xie took a skeptical attitude.

Lao Tick stretched out his hand to scratch the back of his head, and then continued:

"At first I didn't know what was going on? But my mother did appear in front of me, and she ate and lived with me.

Everything around is still going on as usual, I think my mother's death may be my hallucination.

About a week later, something even weirder happened. I was sleeping alone at home that day. Because the weather was too hot, I turned on the fan all night.

But when I woke up in the morning, I heard that the downstairs was very lively, so I poked my head out and asked everyone why they woke up so early. Everyone said that there was a power outage from last night until now, everyone was crazy hot, and they didn't sleep well all night.

I subconsciously looked at the electric fan that was still spinning, as if I realized something. "

"You mean, you, you, your electric fan?"

Wu Xie spoke in surprise.

The old itchy continued to speak:

"Not only electric fans, but also TVs, refrigerators, and all electrical equipment have electricity, and they still have electricity even if they are not plugged in."

Hearing this, both Wu Xie and Fatty Wang felt incredible.

But Zhang Yang fell into deep thought for a while.

The old itchy looked at the crowd, and then said:

"Later, I realized that it might have something to do with my being here, when I secretly snipped a branch of a bronze tree back, and when I wanted something, that thing appeared.

Maybe it was that mysterious force that made my wishes come true. "

"Then why do you come back here?"

Wu Xie was puzzled.

The old itchy opened his mouth and said:

"When I realized it had something to do with the Bronze Tree, everything started to change.

When I woke up the next day, I found that my mother was lying on the sewing machine covered in maggots, exactly the same as when she died before. "

Speaking of the old itch, he choked up again.

"Later, I specifically inquired about this bronze tree, only to find out that this bronze tree was also called a 'wish tree' in ancient times. It is a tree that can help people realize any wish."

"So, you are not reconciled, so you want to come back here again, find that kind of power, and wake up your mother?"

Zhang Yang took the words.

The old itchy nodded fiercely and said:

"Yes, so I want to come back, come back and make a wish like this bronze tree again, I hope my mother can come back to accompany me."

Wu Xie and Fatty Wang almost dropped their jaws.

They never thought that this bronze tree would be capable, it was simply against the sky.

Zhang Yang glanced at Lao Tick calmly, and said quietly:

"You are acting against the sky, after all, people cannot be resurrected after death."

The old itchy hugged his head tightly in pain, nodded sharply and said:
"I know that too, but I just want to spend more time with my mother. In fact, I'm not greedy. I only need three years, even if I go to hell after three years."

Zhang Yang raised his eyebrows slightly, it seems that this bronze tree really has some evil powers, and it can even imagine things that people think in their hearts.

"Mr. Zhang, what is this bronze tree? Can it really come true?"

Zhang Qiling on the side spoke weakly, and looked at Zhang Yang on the side.

Zhang Yang shook his head and said:

"Actually, this bronze tree is not a wish tree at all, but a mind-eating illusion that can make people addicted."

"Mind Devouring Illusion?"

All four looked at Zhang Yang in surprise.

Zhang Yang nodded and said:

"That's right, the so-called mind-eating illusion actually refers to the fact that people may be confused by the appearance of a certain substance under certain circumstances.

It's like he hoped that his mother would come back from the dead, and then he saw it by accident. In fact, these were just appearances. His mother had already died, but he was still alone after silencing his fantasy. "

"Mr. Zhang means that what Old Tick actually sees is just a fantasy, not real at all?"

Wu Xie spoke differently.

Zhang Yang shook his head and said:

"You can't say that, because those things are real."

"what?"

Wu Xie was a little confused, why did he feel that his brain capacity could not keep up with Zhang Yang's rhythm at all.
