Chapter 27 The Dark Book
After Shen Dinghai comforted Xiaotuanzi, he said in a gentle tone: "Cousin, did you bring that book down from the mountain?"
Nodding slowly, "Because I like it very much, Ran Ran keeps it with me."
Shen Dinghai frowned in embarrassment.
"We all already know that this book will have some bad influence on you, cousin, so should we give the book to our parents for safekeeping"
"Or just throw it away?"
Hearing this, Ran Ran subconsciously clutched the strap of the small cloth bag very tightly, "Ran Ran won't look at it again, can you not throw it away?"
Even if Ran Ran doesn't look at it again, can you? He is smart and is a child after all. It is hard for Shen Dinghai to imagine the self-control of a child.
But he decided to speak first to appease Ran Ran.
“If my cousin doesn’t want to throw it away, once this matter with my eldest brother is over, my cousin will go home and give the book to my parents.”
I don't know which word in this sentence irritated Ran Ran, and her eye circles immediately turned red.
“You can’t leave it to your parents.”
Shen Dinghai had a headache, thinking that no matter how well-behaved a child is, he would still have such unreasonable moments.
"Why can't you leave it to your parents? Is my cousin still reluctant to let it go?"
Unexpectedly, he slowly shook his head, with tears in his eyes, like a handful of fine diamonds scattered in the sky. .
"I'm willing to give it to my parents, but I can't give it to my parents."
These words confused Shen Dinghai, and he tried his best to speak patiently, "Why is this?"
As a result, Ran Ran stopped talking. After holding it in for a long time, she just looked at Shen Dinghai with tears in her eyes, "It can't be left to mom and dad anyway."
Shen Dinghai immediately felt that Ran Ran was cheating. After all, she was He couldn't bear to part with that evil book, and now it was starting to fool him.
This is not a good habit. Shen Dinghai thought that he could not let this behavior go unchecked, so his face darkened.
"There are only two solutions. Cousin, if you don't agree with this, then you can only throw it away."
"Don't throw it away, this book is very good! Ran Ran. Ran Ran doesn't know why. It will have this strange influence, but this book has really stayed with Ran Ran for a long time!”
Shen Dinghai choked, he thought it was just a book, how could it have become a childhood companion now?
"How can I accompany a book, since it can't speak?"
Ran Ran said anxiously: "He can speak. He told me the first time we met that his name was Wu Ning. ”
Shen Dinghai was helpless, and the feeling of powerlessness that he couldn't deal with a child welled up in his heart.
"It's normal to write the author's signature on the first page, but that doesn't mean you can speak." Shen Dinghai looked into Ran Ran's eyes and tried to reason with her.
"Cousin, the book will not introduce itself to you."
Ran Ran couldn't argue, "Wu Ning's name was not written on the first page at the beginning, but after Ran Ran opened it. "It just appeared."
"Like white smoke coming together, he said to Ran Ran, 'My name is Wu Ning'"
Shen Dinghai did not expect this to happen, "Cousin, do you mean that the book is alive?!"
Ran Ran also thought about it, "You can't say that, because Ran Ran once accidentally dropped the book. "Wuning didn't show up and told Ran Ran that he was in pain." Shen Dinghai took a breath. Didn't Ran Ran mean that she had other interactions with the person named Wu Ning in the book.
“Let me take a moment.” Plots from fantasy movies kept flashing through Shen Dinghai’s mind. It’s not unusual for books to speak. Even forks and teapots can speak!
A lonely little princess encounters a talking book. She is attracted by the soul imprisoned in the book, and the two gradually become good friends who talk about everything.
So this evil book is really my cousin’s little friend? !
"Okay, I agree with the statement on the first page that he was introducing himself to his cousin." Shen Dinghai paused and said cautiously.
"Cousin, do you usually chat a lot with this guy named Wu Ning?"
Ran Ran shook her head, "Almost never, Ran Ran can count the number of times Wu Ning appears with just a few fingers. , he doesn’t seem to talk much.”
Shen Dinghai thought in his heart that he was lucky. If Wu Ning showed up a few more times, he might lead his kind and lovely cousin astray.
Ran Ran's two little hands squeezed the small cloth bag, "But Ran Ran knows that Wu Ning lives in the book, that's enough."
No wonder my cousin is so protective of the evil book, lonely. The children will hold on tightly even if they only have a little companionship.
Shen Dinghai couldn't say anything wrong about the book anymore, so he could only look at Ran Ran in frustration.
“I can understand that Wu Ning is like a friend to you, cousin, but friends are also divided into good friends and bad friends. Being associated with bad friends will only make you, cousin, become worse and worse. Not good.”
"Cousin, don't you want to be a kind child?"
Ran Ran's eyes were like sparkling river water flashing, "Of course Ran Ran will be a kind child."
Shen Dinghai He lowered his voice even more softly, "But we already know that Wu Ning cannot be considered a good friend."
He saw the look of grievance and struggle on Ran Ran's face, and it felt like many sharp thorns were stuck in his heart. .
"Well, let's not discuss how to treat Wu Ning first. Cousin, can you take out the book and show it to me first?"
Shen Dinghai felt even softer when he saw Ran Ran nodding towards him with trust.
A dark book was slowly pulled out of a small cloth bag.
Shen Dinghai couldn't even spare the energy to marvel at how magical Ran Ran's little cloth bag was.
A place that looks as big as a palm can actually take out a book that is twice as big as Ran Ran’s head.
The book looked heavy. Ranran held it in her arms, but even looking at it was a bit difficult.
The dark cover, dark pages, and the ominous atmosphere exuding from the whole book completely took away Shen Dinghai's mind.
Why on earth would my cousin pick up this kind of book that looks very unlucky at first glance and treat the people in it as good friends? !
If it were him, he would only run as far as he can!
Seeing that Ran Ran was struggling to hold it, Shen Dinghai stretched out his hand to take it, "Cousin, let me hold it for you. I just happen to be studying the contents inside."
Ran Ranyi Yan handed him the book.
What was unexpected was that as soon as the book arrived in Shen Dinghai's hand, it immediately seemed to weigh a thousand pounds and fell to Shen Dinghai's knees.
Ran Ran was shocked and quickly reached out to catch the book, so that Shen Dinghai would not be crushed to death by a book.
Although Shen Dinghai escaped everything, he still had lingering fears and couldn't help but gasp, "Oh my God!"
"Is this a book?! Or is it a mountain?!"
