[Slow Travel] How to show affection correctly

The following memories do not have any substantive and helpful content, and most of them are pictures of a warm and peaceful life of a family of three.The only difference is probably that Bai Mo is no longer completely enthusiastic about using the power of "wood" to cure Bai Jiliang as he was at the beginning, but instead learns about the power of this world from the records of books in this world-the soul of Qi.

This kind of time didn't last long. When Bai Mo was nine years old, Qi Ning brought back a child on a rainy night.

In order to prevent people from discovering the child from the status of the owner of the residence, Qi Ning registered the child with her own identity and claimed to the public that it was the son of her late cousin.

Qi Ning did have an aunt, but when the aunt and her mother separated, they were just children.At that time, their hometown was in chaos, and if they were separated, it would be life and death, so the sudden appearance of a down-and-out cousin at this moment did not arouse suspicion.

That child's name is Qi Luo.It was Qi Ning's name for him.

Qi Luo is indeed different from children of the same age. He is obviously a lively and innocent child, but Qi Luo always shrinks in the corner of the room and does not want to move all day long.He refused to be approached by anyone except Qi Ning, and even when Bai Mo wanted to cover him with a quilt, something suddenly made the back of his hand red.

Qi Luo's appearance at that time reminded Bai Mo of stray cats and dogs who had been abused.

A pair of eyes stared wide-eyed at Bai Mo, and his whole body was tense.He was obviously on guard, but when Bai Mo saw Qi Luo sweeping across the back of his red and swollen hands, there was a flash of nervousness and panic in his eyes.

Qi Ning didn't mention Qi Luo's background to anyone, including Bai Jiliang, she just looked at him with sad and pity eyes occasionally.

So when Qi Ning asked about the injury on Bai Mo's hand the next day, Bai Mo just explained vaguely: "I accidentally fell down."

No one noticed that when Qi Luo heard Qi Ning's question, he subconsciously lowered his head and hugged his curled legs tightly.However, Bai Mo's words made him freeze in place.

When Bai Mo turned around and gave him a kind smile after Qi Ning left, his arms were already trembling due to the long-term tension.

It was one night not long after that Bai Mo really knew about Qi Luo's anomaly.

Qi Luo who was in the same room as him didn't know where he went, Bai Mo vaguely felt that something was wrong, so he climbed out of bed to look for it.

He heard movement from the utility room, and because he didn't want to wake his parents, he tiptoed over and pushed the door open.Bai Mo will probably never forget the scene inside.

——It was a huge black snake, with golden vertical pupils staring at Bai Mo, and he broke out in a cold sweat instantly.

This is the soul.

But the souls he had seen were either small and beautiful silver scorpions or soft-haired white cats. Bai Mo was terrified by this giant hissing snake that could swallow him in one bite.

Bai Mo caught a glimpse of Qi Luo lying on the ground, the numerous wounds on his body had already stained his pajamas red with blood.

"Quick... go..."

Half of Qi Luo's face was bruised and swollen. With difficulty, he opened half of his eyes and shouted hoarsely at Bai Mo, "Go!"

The snake seemed to be enraged, it suddenly raised its tail and hit Qi Luo——

The expected pain did not come.Qi Luo heard muffled groans in his ears, and he was surprised to find that he was being protected by Bai Mo in his arms, and Bai Mo was panting in pain.

"Don't be afraid, brother is here."

It was obviously just a few words, but Qi Luo couldn't hold back his tears, and rushed to fall down.

He stretched out his hand, clutched Bai Mo's clothes tightly and said, "Brother, I hurt so much, I hurt so much."

Qi Luo had never spoken before this evening, and the small voice at this moment made Bai Mo's heart ache.

The big snake disappeared amidst Qi Luo's cries, and when Bai Mo healed himself and Qi Luo with "wood" and the two quietly tidied up the utility room, it was almost dawn.

Qi Luo was too sleepy to open his eyes, but he stubbornly grabbed Bai Mo's clothes and refused to let go, let alone close his eyes.

Bai Mo had no choice but to get into Qi Luo's bed and fell asleep hugging his clingy younger brother.

They didn't tell Qi Ning and Bai Jiliang what happened that day.Later one day when Bai Mo asked Qi Luo about the big snake, Qi Luo didn't want to say anything, but trembled all over, terrified.

So Bai Mo never asked again.

Suddenly, the eyes began to blur, and the memory fusion stopped abruptly.

By the time Bai Mo recovered from the splitting headache, the black panther was no longer in the room, and the black cat that had been nestled in the pillow had turned into a naked person.

Bai Mo leaned over and carefully tucked the blanket for Qi Luo who was curled up in a baby posture.

He looked at Qi Luo's defenseless sleeping face, and thought of the child in his memory who was pulling the corner of his clothes.He gently stroked Qi Luo's soft hair.

According to the book in memory, a person can only have one soul.

If that giant snake is Qi Luo's soul, then what is the black panther?

He thought of himself without a soul, Black Panther's vague words, and his hostile attitude towards Qi Luo.

Is it really what he thinks?

Bai Mo exhaled heavily.

Tonight, sleepless again.

Alex had a dream.

She was walking in the gorgeous corridor with a snow-white rabbit in her arms, and people in the distance were chatting with each other with elegant manners.

"Ellie, come here."

She turned to look at the person who called her.

The lights were too bright, and when Alex got closer, she could see that it was a couple. The woman was holding her husband's arm, and the dazzling blond hair hung on her shoulders, very beautiful.

The woman beckoned to her, then stretched out her arms in the gesture of waiting for a hug.

Just as Alex took the first step, all the lights suddenly went out, and there was silence all around.

With a light hand.When she raised her head, she saw an ugly and huge monster in front of her. Its long tongue was wrapping a white rabbit. The rabbit was struggling in pain, but it was rolled into a row of saw-shaped traps under Alex's gaze. between the teeth.

She stared blankly at all this, unable to move her body.

The next moment, warm blood splashed on her face, staining her gorgeous dress red.In her hand, only half of the rabbit's ear remained.

"Do not--"

The blond woman sat up abruptly, panting heavily, with fear and panic still in her eyes.

She got up and rummaged around like crazy, the fear in her heart was like an invisible arm, tightly clutching her heart.

Something grabbed the trouser leg suddenly, she lowered her head, and saw a fluffy snow ball.

Alex almost trembled and knelt on the ground to hold the rabbit.The rabbit moved in her arms, holding a carrot with a small nick in its two paws and handing it out.

Alix chuckled, took the carrot, and planted a kiss on the white rabbit's head.

"Thank you."
