smuggler

Chapter 79
My nervousness has eased, and I calmly said to her: "How can I trust you?"

Red Carp hesitated a little, then took out a photo and handed it to me.

I just glanced at it, and my heart suddenly became a little excited.

This photo is in black and white. On it are two plainly dressed men and a woman standing in front of the courtyard smiling. The woman is wearing old-fashioned cloth shoes, has shoulder-length short hair, and is wearing a thick padded jacket.

She also held a swaddled baby in her arms.

Although I don't remember the things when I was very young, I can recognize this woman at a glance.

This is my mother.

She has shoulder-length short hair, and although I have long hair, I can tell that we have five or six points of similarity in appearance, and the feeling that blood is thicker than water is unmistakable of.

My nose was so sore that I couldn't help it, and tears kept rolling in my eyes.

In the past, I didn't have any memory of my parents in my mind, and even an illusory fantasy couldn't construct their appearance.

Looking at this photo now, all sorts of images pop up in my mind.

Unfortunately, my childhood was not accompanied by them.

Of course, I can confirm that this photo is my parents, except that I am very similar to my mother, it is the background of this photo, and it was taken in front of the gate of grandma's house.

Moreover, behind my parents, there was an old lady in her fifties sitting on a low stool at the entrance of the main room.

Although the photo is a bit blurry, I can still recognize it at a glance, that is my grandma.

At that time, grandma was dressed differently, and she didn't have frosted hair all over her head, so she looked energetic.

"Do you believe it now?" Red Carp said after a long time, seeing me recover from my trance.

I sniffed, feeling extremely uncomfortable, but I still nodded and didn't ask how she got this photo.

I returned the photo, but the red carp pushed it in front of me again, and said to me: "You keep it, this is yours."

"Thank you!" I said to her gratefully.

The red carp pondered for a moment, and then said something that shocked me: "I let you go to that snake island because your parents are probably still alive, or... still on that island."

I raised my head and looked at her very seriously, my heart was shocked, but I was very puzzled.

After a long time, I shook my head and said, "If they are still alive on that island, why haven't they gone back to see me for more than ten years?"

If what she said is true, my parents took my brother to Snake Island.

If they were still alive in the past ten years, or if they were on that snake island, how could they not return to the village.

I would rather believe that something happened to my parents in the past ten years, but I also don't want to believe that they went to the so-called Snake Island and didn't want to come back.

"Maybe, it wasn't their original intention to go to that snake island, maybe... it has something to do with the strange snake in your parents' dream!" Red Carp said something that confused me even more.

"What do you mean by that?" I asked, frowning.

The red carp stared at me, but did not answer me directly, but said to me in a deep voice: "There is another thing, the white snake of the Liu family has lost its vitality, and the only remaining snake spirit will slowly dissipate with time. "

"But there is a kind of snake fruit on Snake Island, which is the only hope for the Liu family's white snake to survive, so... that white snake will let Liu's family go to Snake Island. Maybe you will not only find your biological parents when you go to Snake Island this time. If he falls, he can also get his snake head back."

"Although the white snake in the Liu family is nothing to be afraid of, there are other terrifying existences on that snake island. I know you have a lot of concerns in your heart, but you need to find the answer yourself."

"Snake Island!"

I murmured in a low voice, chewing on the name in my heart.

Red Carp said: "The Snake Island is by no means simple. If you want to go, I advise you to be fully prepared!"

I thought about it a thousand times in my head, but I couldn't figure out whether the red carp had other purposes for telling me this.

However, I feel that if she really has a purpose, she would be superfluous in doing so.

Is it really for revenge?

But what kind of entanglement can I have with her?
Red Carp gave me a map and said to me: "This is the map to Snake Island. Snake Island is full of dangers. You must be careful. One more thing, don't tell anyone about seeing me."

I was about to ask why, but the red carp turned around and walked into the darkness.

Without turning his head, the voice floated over from afar.

"We are destined to meet again, Bai Yao..."

For some reason, when I called out my name, my heart trembled slightly. When I looked up, she had disappeared into the darkness.

There was only one person left in the pitch-black cemetery, and the surroundings were full of darkness. It was not suitable to stay in this place for a long time, but now there was nowhere to go.

Chu Yuan went after the white snake, after thinking about it, I decided to go to Xiaomei, because I have Chu Yuan's inner alchemy in my body, he can find me anytime.

Coming out of the cemetery, I walked to the road, and walked along the quiet street for a while, because this is a remote suburb, it looks very deserted, the surroundings are like a village in the city, there is not even a place to live.

I waited for a while under the crooked stop sign, and an old bus came, and I stopped it. When I got on the bus and was about to insert coins, the bearded driver turned his head and gave me a look.

"No money charged today, just sit back!"

The driver looked to be in his 40s or [-]s, but he spoke in a low voice and had a cold expression.

This is an old-fashioned bus, just like the old buses running in the countryside. There are no such buses in the urban area now, and I can occasionally meet them in the suburbs. The compartment is empty, and I am the only passenger.

There was a stale, stale and musty smell in the compartment, which made people feel drowsy, and I felt a little drowsy after driving for a long time.

In a daze, I didn't know how far I had gone, so I took out my phone and looked at it, and it took more than ten minutes.

But it was still pitch black outside the window, and the bus seemed to be falling apart, rattling non-stop.

At this time, the car stopped suddenly, and an old lady with small feet on crutches limped into the car.

The old lady came up and talked to the driver. I saw what she was talking to the driver, but the strange thing was that I was sitting at the back door of the bus, but I couldn't hear what they said.

I thought I was hallucinating. At this time, the old lady came over, smiled at me, and said in a hoarse voice, "Little girl, you are sitting in the wrong place. This seat is mine."

The old lady looked harmless to humans and animals, and looked at me with a smile.

I looked around and saw that the car was empty and there were places everywhere. Is there something wrong with this old woman? !
