Shimmer Forest

"What... are you doing?" Su Jin was angry and struggled instinctively, but now he found that he couldn't move at all.

"What are you doing?" The man licked his lips with an innocent expression on his face: "Of course it's to do what you and that man didn't finish. Don't you really want it?"

"No... stop..." The cold hands entered into his clothes and rubbed against his body.A nauseating feeling like being rubbed by a snake.Su Jin resisted the feeling of vomiting and still tried to stop it.

The man no longer paid any attention to him, as if he had lost his mind, he was desperately longing for his body.

He closed his eyes in despair.

Something passed quickly overhead, bringing up the originally still wind.The force on his body suddenly lightened, he shivered, opened his eyes, and found that Wang Xiaoer had jumped a few meters away.And on the tree behind him, a bright short knife was buried, only the handle of the knife was still exposed.

"Dare to attack me, you are not small." The man seemed to have been aroused by the instinct of a beast, and there was a strong killing intent in his eyes.

"Thank you for the compliment." A cold, calm voice sounded behind him.Very familiar and nostalgic.

Su Jingran's voice.

"...Father...Dear?" As if being salvaged from the abyss of despair, Su Jin looked at his father's rarely serious, worried face and opened his mouth with difficulty.

"...are you alright?" Su Jingran helped him up, noticing that his hands were trembling slightly.He frowned, then squeezed his hand tightly.

The warm breath passed from the wide palms, conveying a kind of calming power.Su Jin's trembling hands gradually calmed down.

The white light gradually appeared, and only then did he realize that his body was covered with gleaming white vines.Su Jingran cut off the rattan with the dagger in his hand, and the rattan dissipated immediately, and Su Jin became able to move freely.

"Are you trying to break the contract by doing something against me?" The man squatted on the ground, resting his chin, watching the interaction between the father and son with great interest.

"You are the one who wants to break the contract, right?" Su Jingran took off his coat and wrapped it around Su Jin, blocking him behind him: "Not only do you want to stop the time in the village without authorization, but you also want to forcibly seal the seal before the ceremony, isn't it too much? -"

Deliberately prolonging his tone, he looked contemptuously at the man who was ready to attack at any time, and tightened his grip on the dagger in his hand: "Master Mountain God?"

"Hahaha, you are worthy of being the heir of the Su family, you are really bold." Before Su Jin could be surprised, the mountain god laughed heartily.He stood up, patted his knees, and stared at Su Jin who was standing behind him with great interest: "Anyway, sooner or later, it will be my thing. What is the difference between doing it now and doing it during the ceremony?"

"Of course." "It was clearly written when the contract was established, and the 'seal' must be completed through a ceremony. If any party violates it, then both parties have the right to impose sanctions—" Su Jingran paused for a moment, stretched out Raising the palm, the glowing hand rotated in the palm, emitting a dazzling white light.The light reflected his expressionless face, his gaze was as sharp as a Rakshasa: "——Are you right?"

It was an unadorned and strong murderous aura, which made the mountain god take a few steps back in awe.However, surprise was soon replaced by a smirk, and he clapped his hands and shouted excitedly: "Hahaha, interesting, you are the only one in this world who dares to threaten me."

Realizing that the other party wasn't joking, he weighed it up and decided to retreat temporarily: "Forget it, it's really a pity to complete the contract like this. I'll just wait for two more days."

"By the way, there are more." Black smoke evaporated from the feet of the mountain god and wrapped around his body. His eyes penetrated the smoke and settled on Su Jin's body: "Su Jin, you are my thing. Before the ceremony, you were taken by someone else, even if I break the contract, I will slaughter the whole village—"

When the final sound fell, the person in front of him also disappeared in the smoke, and everything returned to silence, as if nothing had happened.

The breeze blew gently, the branches swayed with the wind, the bird flapped its wings again, almost fell from mid-air, looked around suspiciously, not knowing what happened.

"...Are you okay?" Seeing Su Jin with a pale face, Su Jingran felt a little bit of sadness in his heart, softly softly his hair, and whispered: "I'm sorry, I'm late."

"No, you came back in time." Seeing his worry, Su Jin reluctantly hooked the corners of her lips: "I'm not injured, and time has returned to flow... Really, that's great."

His maturity and well-behaved beyond his age are especially distressing at this moment.Su Jingran put his still trembling body into her arms, hugged him tightly, and tried her best to give him some warmth.

Even Su Jin himself didn't know how much he was shaking now, and what he was afraid of.He didn't want to think about anything now, and he didn't have the strength to think. He just let his father hold him, feeling the familiar and reassuring breath on him.

"Squeak—" The door behind him opened slowly, and Wu Hao poked his head out from behind the door.He felt that he must have just woken up, and when he woke up, he found that Su Jin was not around, so he went out to look for it worriedly, only to find that the father and son were hugging each other in the middle of the courtyard, Su Jin was still wearing Su Jingran's clothes, he couldn't help but feel puzzled : What kind of touching meeting did these two people have?

"Su Jingran?" Uncle Wu didn't know when he was fighting behind Wu Hao, and he was surprised to see the two people in the courtyard: "Why are you back?"

"Didn't I write a letter to tell you?" Su Jingran let go of his hand, stood up slowly, and returned to his usual appearance: "You are also concerned about my affairs!"

"...What are you doing...?" Uncle Wu gave him a disgusted look, with a blank expression on his face: "I mean, why did you come back in the middle of the night..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Su Jin, who was wearing clothes and standing in the cold wind of early spring, with a pale complexion. He was so worried that he forgot to complain, and wanted to run over quickly: "Xiao Jin? What's wrong with you?"

It's a pity that as soon as he moved, Su Jingran stopped him and pushed him back into the room: "It's all right, I'm so excited to see his father, so I just came out to greet him."

Su Jingran's behavior was a bit abnormal. Uncle Wu looked at him suspiciously, then at Su Jin, but he didn't pursue further.

On the contrary, Wu Hao ran over nervously, grabbed Su Jin and asked worriedly: "Study, what's wrong with you? Why are you shivering? Are you cold?"

"Snapped!"

Su Jin pushed his hand away almost instinctively, and backed away in horror.The crisp applause resounded in the quiet courtyard, and the three fell silent at the same time, looking at Su Jin in surprise.

After a short silence, he was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head, concealed the uneasiness in his eyes, and apologized softly: "...I'm sorry."

"Book, nerd?" Wu Hao was so obviously resisted for the first time, he was shocked, and more worried.

"You deserve it. Who told you to moleste my precious son? Did you get beaten?" Su Jingran interposed between the two of them in a timely manner, squatted down and put on a hat for Su Jin to cover his lonely and restless face: "Let's go home first today." Bar?"

Su Jin hid her face under the shadow, and nodded heavily.

"Okay, that's it." Not intending to explain to the other two, he took Su Jin's hand and waved goodbye: "We're going home first, you don't want to disturb our father-son reunion."

After finishing speaking, he took his hand and left, walking towards home.

Leaving another father and son standing in place, looking at each other.

"Father..." Wu Hao looked at the astonished Uncle Wu with a dazed expression, "The nerd's body is very cold... Is something wrong with him?"

Even this idiot can see that something happened to him, Uncle Wu thinks this incident is unusual.But the two father and son obviously wanted to hide it from them, so he couldn't say anything, so he could only comfort him: "Probably not, I think Xiao Jin just simply hates you."

"Really, that's really..." Wu Hao just wanted to express his happiness on his face, but he soon came back to his senses, with an expression on his face that was about to cry, and said aggrievedly: "Father... I'm hated by nerds... Woo..."

Uncle Wu sighed, thinking that a fool is indeed a fool, and his son's IQ fell into the hands of Su Jin's smart monkey, so the future is really worrying.He patted the other person on the shoulder, and comforted him earnestly: "It's okay, it's just being hated anyway. You have a thick skin and are not afraid. Just stick to it tomorrow."

"..." Wu Hao was about to cry, but when he heard what his father said, he felt that there was some truth in it, and soon cheered up again: "Father, what you said makes sense! Then I'll go to bed first, tomorrow Rise up and fight again!"

After saying that, he ran back to the house to sleep. Uncle Wu watched his back, worried about his IQ.No matter what, I feel that this kid is extraordinarily stupid today, did he take the wrong medicine?

What's even more strange...why is it suddenly dark?What he did today and what he did yesterday has no memory at all.

"I'm too tired lately..." Uncle Wu looked at the dark depths of the night and said to himself.Compared to this, he was more worried about what the father and son were doing in their yard in the middle of the night, touching each other?Only a fool would believe it.That guy Su Jingran, once there is something he doesn't want to tell him, he will always find some inexplicable excuses to prevaricate it.

As for Su Jin's appearance just now, it was clear that something terrible had happened.Rarely had he seen the child with such a frightened expression on his face.

I hope it's all just his worrying too much.

Returning to the house with a sigh, he gently closed the door.

On the other side, Su Jingran had brought Su Jin back to the house.He asked the child to sit down, boiled a pot of hot water to make a cup of tea, and asked him to hold it gently to warm his body.Seeing Su Jin lower his head and sip his tea, he asked softly, "How is it? Are you feeling better?"
