midnight snake language

Chapter 56 I'm Gone

Tonight is the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar, the full moon, and the moonlight is extraordinarily bright.

The shadow of a snake thicker than an adult's body was attached to the window, casting a curved black shadow in the room.The thick-strong snake squirmed slowly, and the friction between the scales and the glass made a rustling sound, like a god of death approaching step by step.

I lay on the bed and covered my mouth tightly to prevent myself from screaming out of fear.

This is our family's town house snake. Yun Xiao said that it will not disturb the family. Maybe it just came to my bedroom tonight to borrow a way.

According to a quick glance last time, the town house snake is about four or five meters long. I just need to wait for it to crawl away and it should be safe.

While suppressing the fear in my heart, I stared at the snake shadow constantly swimming on the window, and secretly calculated the length of the house snake that had crawled.

The snake's body squirmed uncomfortably, and all this seemed to have no end.After what seemed like a long century, I saw the shadow of the snake thinning and finally disappearing.

There was a slight sound of tiles rubbing against the roof, and the town house snake stayed on it for a while, then crawled away from the roof in one direction.

The chill that lingered in the house gradually disappeared, and I was relieved when I was sure it was gone.

I bravely lifted up the corner of the curtain, and there was no house snake outside the window. Instead, there was a trace of dust on the window glass, and there were crushed peach blossoms in it.

This snake is really not as good as Yun Xiao, the big black snake that Yun Xiao transformed into is clean, no matter where it goes, it won't leave a speck of dust.

What's more, Yun Xiao's scales are like gemstones, they are always shiny and can reflect brilliant light, it is the kind of colorful black that Party A loves most.

I lowered the curtains and found that the lights at Aunt Cheng's house next door were dimmed.

The town is so big, Shao Yuxi didn't go home for dinner at night, Aunt Cheng should soon find out about her disappearance, and then start looking for someone.

But until our house closed, she never came to ask about Shao Yuxi's whereabouts, and she didn't notice her daughter's disappearance at all.

This is not right.

I wondered all night, and woke up early the next day to find that Shao Yuxi's noodle shop was open normally.

Aunt Cheng came to our house early in the morning to buy cooking wine, smiling all over her face: "Weiwei, I asked my boyfriend yesterday, and he said that he is related to your family."

Not only a relative, but it is now living in a corner of our house.

Two days ago, Yun Xiao covered it up, so the town house snake probably didn't know that I had discovered it.I pretended to be stupid and asked, "Which relative?"

Aunt Cheng waved her hand and didn't care much about these things: "I can't tell. But they are all relatives. When we get married, you must come."

My mother came out of the warehouse, just in time to hear the last two sentences, and asked in a soft voice: "Cheng Jing, we have been neighbors for so many years, so let me ask a question. What does Yuxi say about your marriage?"

Aunt Cheng rolled her eyes: "It's not her who married me. Why do you ask her? This damn girl has gone somewhere, and she hasn't seen anyone for two days."

My mother was surprised: "Then have you contacted her?"

"I can't get in touch. It's okay. She was dissatisfied with my new boyfriend before, and she probably went to her father's place again. She's such an adult, and I don't want to care about her after I finish her studies. Let her do whatever she wants." Aunt Cheng complained about her daughter's disobedience, and the more she talked, the more dissatisfied she became.

At this moment, Aunt Cheng's cell phone rang, and when she saw the caller ID, she connected the cell phone with an angry face: "Hello? What are you doing?"

A man's voice came from inside, it was too far away, I couldn't hear clearly, but I vaguely heard Shao Yuxi's name.

I have a sense of foreboding.

After hearing the words over there, Aunt Cheng was furious: "Shao Changdong, don't fart! How could something happen to my daughter? Isn't it because she doesn't want me to remarry? Do you still need to use this method? You let Yuxi answer the phone, I know She's right next to you!"

The more she spoke, the angrier she became, and she left cursingly holding up her mobile phone.

My mother frowned into the word "Chuan" and muttered in a low voice: "Cheng Jing has changed. She used to be very anxious when her daughter didn't see her at night. Now that the child has been away for two days, she doesn't care at all. It is said that if you have a stepmother, you will have a stepdad, I hope Yuxi, this stepfather, is a good person."

If my mother knew that Shao Yuxi wanted to kill me yesterday and replace me, she would probably smash her noodle shop by now.

Suddenly a series of bells rang in the house, and my mother turned off the phone alarm clock excitedly: "Weiwei, it's nine o'clock, the college entrance examination results are released, go check the results!"

I came back to my senses, and obediently logged on to the query website to check my college entrance examination results under her supervision.

The scores of each subject were not much different from what I estimated, but when I saw that the total score ranked first in the province, I was stunned for a moment and couldn't believe it.

"First! No. [-]! Weiwei, you are the No. [-] in the college entrance examination!" My mother exclaimed, and immediately took the firecrackers from the counter and set them off happily.

Amidst the crackling sound of firecrackers, I slowly came back to my senses and entered Shao Yuxi's relevant information.

This time, she failed to borrow points, and no one else's scores could be exchanged. The screen clearly showed her true level.

On the paper with a full score of 720 points, she only scored 112 points.

In the highly competitive Handong Province, this score is not even enough to get into a better junior college.

The town was full of fireworks, my mother set off firecrackers and set off firecrackers, and then received a call from my dad asking for my score, and happily announced the good news to him and grandma.

After a while, the head teacher also called to ask about my score.Knowing my ranking, the gentle head teacher burst into tears, and directly told me not to rush to fill in the application, and wait for the top universities to come to me.

To celebrate this event, my mother made a big table of delicious food.I secretly hid a copy, thinking that if Yun Xiao could come out tonight, I would also celebrate with him.

However, Yun Xiao didn't show up for a few days. I knew he was with me all the time, but the days when I couldn't meet him were still extremely difficult.

The educational resources in our town are mediocre, and it is rare to be able to produce a champion in the college entrance examination.Both the town government and the school gave me a scholarship to satisfy my desire to buy a laptop computer after I go to college.

During this period, I received many calls from well-known universities, including Anhai University, my favorite.And, they all offer a nice scholarship.As long as I go, it can be given to me.

No matter what my mother thinks of me now, I can choose my major as I like, and she doesn't interfere at all.After thinking for a long time, I chose an unpopular major—archaeology.

Yunxiao, Panlong Village, and even myself have countless secrets. If you choose archaeology, it may be helpful to solve these mysteries.

My parents expected me to study economics, law, or medicine, but they all respected my choice under my insistence.

On Monday, after I filled out the application form online, I went to the school to submit paper documents for distribution, and found that my photo was posted on the honor column of the school I entered, with the words "honorary student" written next to it.

The teacher also asked me to write some inspirational words for future students.

I was so praised that I almost drifted away, until after returning home, a team of policemen came to my house, showed their IDs and asked, "Do you know where Shao Yuxi went?"

The police dogs barked at me, and under the scrutiny of the police, I felt as if I had fallen into an abyss.
