Chapter 466 The Wine Worm. Continued
"Yeah."
"You don't have to worry."
"The kid is going to be fine."
Xiao Xiao nodded, just a wine bug.
……
"Really?!"
The Zhang family said in unison.
The joy came so suddenly, and the Zhang family was a little overwhelmed.
……
"Real or false?"
Wu Zhe couldn't help but look at each other and murmured to Wang Nan.
……
Zhang Lin had talked about this child's situation in the dormitory before, and they also knew a thing or two about it.
At that time, they felt that Zhang Lin was thinking too much.
Later, Meng Jixi specially found a master for Zhang Lin, which surprised them even more.
Now when they came to Zhang Lin's home and saw that the child looked so normal, they really felt that the Zhang family had thought too much.
It's right to care about your children, but it's not good to worry too much.
It's just that they are guests after all, so there are things they should just think about in their hearts, but not say out loud.
……
However, this Master Xiao only glanced at the child a few times, not even for a minute, right?
Does this mean he has a solution?
What a liar! This is it!
……
However, the Zhang family's excited expressions made them unable to say anything.
They are not so ignorant.
Forget it, it can't be true if it's fake. If Master Xiao is really a liar, he will definitely show his flaws later.
Wang Nan and Wu Zhe watched Master Xiao's every move with wider eyes, striving to discover something was wrong with Master Xiao as soon as possible.
……
"Then, Master Xiao, what's wrong with the child?"
Grandpa Zhang was the first to react and asked urgently.
This is also a problem that has troubled them for a long time.
Maybe in the eyes of others, this child just became addicted to alcohol prematurely because of the fault of their adults.
However, they felt it was not the case.
It's not that they are shirking responsibility, but that something is really wrong with this child.
It's just that they can only vaguely feel it, but cannot discover this problem.
Although this has also been criticized by others as being caused by their unwillingness and unwillingness to admit their mistakes.
……
The rest of the Zhang family, as well as Meng Jixi, Wang Nan, and Wu Zhe were all staring at Master Xiao, completely unable to imagine what kind of answer he would give.
The corner of Xiao Xiao's mouth curled up, revealing a slight smile.
"Can you give me a room so I can be alone with this child for a while?"
……
Zhang family:......
Meng Jixi:......
Wang Nan:......
Wu Zhe:……
Xiao Xiao's unexpected answer made everyone confused.
……
"This..."
Liu Qian couldn't help but squeeze the child's hand, but instinctively paid attention to the strength.
She had accidentally hurt her child once before, and as a mother, she would not make the same mistake again.
……
"Let you and the child be in a separate room?"
"Who knows what you're going to do to your child?"
Wu Zhe couldn't help but speak venomously. Although his words didn't sound good, they did express the hidden worries of the Zhang family present.
Even Grandpa Zhang, who looked at Master Xiao differently, was hesitant. No matter how unusual the feeling Master Xiao gave him, it was just a stranger he met for the first time.
I originally thought that since they were all watching from the side, nothing would happen even if the joy ended in vain.
But I didn't expect Master Xiao to make such a request...
The room fell silent for a moment. ……
Xiao Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly and seemed unaware of everything around him.
His brows raised slightly, as if he was struggling with something.
……
If the alcohol bug stays in a child's body, nothing will happen for the time being other than making the child addicted to alcohol.
Moreover, the wine bug will keep its host rich in order to drink.
From this point of view, Liquorworm seems to be a quite auspicious monster.
……
However, monsters are monsters after all.
Just like what the Zhang family did before, once the wine bug is cut off from drinking, it will become grumpy.
It will slowly devour the host's energy and energy until it drains the host dry, then bites a small hole in the host's belly and crawls out, and then goes to find the next host.
……
Therefore, fortunately, the Zhang family promptly stopped prohibiting children from drinking.
Otherwise, the child's life might be at risk.
……
However, if the appetite of the wine worm is always satisfied, the wine worm will stay quietly in the host's body and will not have any other bad effects on the host.
On the contrary, the host will always remain rich and prosperous.
Until the final moment of death, the host will not run around for a living and will not suffer from poverty.
However, the next moment the host closes his eyes, the wine bug will eat the host's body.
Because the host who has been drinking alcohol for a lifetime, especially in the end, is affected by the alcohol bug and only needs to drink alcohol to maintain daily life needs.
The body of such a host has been infected by the smell of alcohol, which is nothing more than a delicacy to the alcohol bug.
……
Xiao Xiao is not sure what the Zhang family's choice will be?
Should he tell the Zhang family this?
After all, a lifetime of drinking can lead to a lifetime of wealth. Even if there are no bones left after death, maybe many people will be willing to do so, right?
What's more, now is not the past, we don't pay as much attention to things after death as the ancients did.
The ancients were not even willing to be cremated, but now more and more people are choosing cremation.
So, although there is still a handful of ashes left in the cremation, it is actually the same as being eaten, right?
It can also be exchanged for the wealth that many people strive for in their entire lives...
……
Wine bugs are uncommon.
After all, this kind of ability that can bring wealth to people is unique.
This can be regarded as an opportunity for the Zhang family.
Even if there is a price to pay.
However, what is there in the world that does not require a price?
Getting something for nothing is just a delusion after all.
If you want to get something, you must give something.
……
"Then, only the Zhang family can stay."
Xiao Xiao raised his eyes, his expression was cold, and he couldn't refuse.
"Okay."
Grandpa Zhang hurriedly responded.
In fact, if Master Xiao really insists on his original request, maybe Grandpa Zhang will agree in the end.
Now that Master Xiao has taken a step back, Grandpa Zhang will naturally not push forward.
He looked at Meng Jixi and the others with an apologetic look, "Several classmates..."
"Let's take a stroll in the yard first."
Meng Jixi didn't wait for Grandpa Zhang to finish what he said, and spoke very consciously.
"I'm sorry."
Zhang Lin smiled apologetically at several of his brothers, especially Meng Jixi. Master Xiao had invited them through Meng Jixi's matchmaking. Now, although it was not his intention, it still made him feel like burning bridges. Feeling of discomfort.
However, when things have developed to this point, he also wants to hear what Master Xiao has to say about his nephew's situation.
"It's okay."
Xiuxiu told him a lot about Master Xiao, including the fact that Master Xiao didn't like the presence of others when doing things.
However, Master Xiao left the Zhang family behind this time. Why?
He didn't believe it was just to appease his family, there must be some other reason.
ps: Thank you Nalan Ruruo for the reward (*︶*)!
