Chapter 1771 Conjecture, Regret and Doubt


Chapter 1771 Conjecture, regret and doubt

"What the child said just now"

The old man rubbed his forehead, "Child's experience"

Reminiscing about the past can be a bit nerve-wracking for older people.

"I felt something familiar from the beginning."

“But you still don’t understand why?”

"I thought hard."

"Then I suddenly remembered."

"Thinking of Xiaobai."

"I remembered that Xiaobai once said something very similar to the kid Leile."

"They all saw the tiger."

"But they were the only ones who saw the tiger."

"We didn't see the tiger that Xiaobai pointed out at that time."

"Now you haven't seen the tiger opposite Leilei."

“So similar”

The old man looked complicated, and felt something indescribable in his heart.

"One person's experience can't explain anything."

"But two people."

"I was thinking, maybe."

The old man looked at the old lady and said, "None of them lied."

"Xiaobai didn't lie."

"Leile didn't lie."

"They saw the tiger."

"But it's no ordinary tiger."

"Not an ordinary tiger?"

The old lady murmured.

"Yeah."

The old man nodded, "I think that is a tiger that only a small number of people can see."

"Fortunately, they are among that small group of people."

"So they saw it."

"And we don't belong to that small minority."

"So none of us saw it."

"."

The old lady opened her mouth.

She has many questions.

There are also many things I want to ask.

But when the words came to her lips, she didn't know what to ask first?

She took a deep breath.

Her brain was a little confused.

No.

It's very confusing.

The old lady frowned and pressed her temple.

She needs reason.

It also needs to be slowed down.

".You mean"

The old lady pursed her lips and said, "Leilei saw it"

"Dirty things?"

Did her vague worries come true?

She was actually just saying those words.

What era is it now?

She, an old woman, doesn't really believe in the gods and ghosts anymore.

The son is silent and his strange power confuses the gods.

It's just that there are some things that, even if you don't believe it, it's better to avoid them.

That's why she was so resistant to her children going to the woods that made them weird.

……

The old man was stunned.

Then he smiled bitterly and shook his head, "That's not what I meant."

"It's not so much unclean things..."

"I prefer..."

The old man thought about his words, "There are magical creatures and the like."

"Magical creatures?"

The old lady's eyes widened slightly, "What?"

"Ahem~"

The old man cleared his throat, "Like an elf...a monster?"

"Elf?"

"Monster?"

The old lady's eyes became strange, "Old man, why didn't I know you were so childlike?"

The old man rolled his eyes and said, "I'm serious."

"And it's just my guess."

"I don't know what kind of tiger Xiaobai and Leilei saw." "But I think they should have seen the same tiger, right?"

"After all, we saw it in the same place."

"I didn't expect..."

The old man was very emotional, "After so many years, I actually heard words from my grandson that I thought were lies when I was a child."

"No."

The old man shook his head, "What lie?"

"It's just that I didn't see it."

"It doesn't mean they told lies."

He understands this now.

He didn't understand this when he was still young.

For Xiaobai, this friend whom he thought of again, the old man felt a little guilty in his heart.

Because I was suspicious of my friends at that time.

It was more because at that time he failed to fulfill his promise to his friends.

He clearly promised Xiaobai... that he would bring a message to Tiger for him... and that he would tell Tiger that Xiaobai was sick and could not attend the appointment today...

He knew clearly... Xiaobai had to come out of the house even if he had a high fever, and even if he couldn't stand still, he still wanted to see the tiger...

Xiaobai cares so much about that tiger.

If it weren't for the limited physical condition, there is really no way...

He clearly saw such a novice...

Even now, he could still vaguely recall Xiaobai's eyes sparkling because of his promise.

He...

The old man pursed his lips-

But he failed Xiaobai's complete trust.

In the end nothing was done.

He didn't even look for it in the woods.

From the beginning, he knew that he would not be able to speak since he had never seen a tiger.

Xiaobai may have forgotten this because he was sick and dizzy.

He didn't forget.

But at that time, he was only thinking about taking Xiaobai back, so he naturally responded to everything before saying anything.

Now think about it, so what if I didn’t see the tiger?

It doesn't matter if you can't find the tiger.

At least he worked hard for his promise to Xiaobai.

At least...he can roar in the woods.

Maybe the tiger heard it?

The old man sighed, with a hint of regret on his face.

At that time, I chose the least laborious and most irresponsible way.

……

"Old man."

The old lady comforted the old man, "It's been a long time, and there's no point regretting it now."

"Besides, the tiger thing is just your guess. I don't know whether it is true or not."

Even if there is such a coincidence... maybe it is just a coincidence?

"It doesn't matter whether the tiger is real or not."

The old man shook his head and said, "I broke my promise."

"Okay, how old were you then?"

The old lady said in a gentle tone, "Children will inevitably do wrong things."

"Besides, didn't you say that your friend never came to the village again?"

"Then he has never been to the forest in the back mountain again, right?"

The old lady thought clearly, "In this case, even if you had given him a message at that time, he would never see that tiger again."

"Although you can't use this as an excuse to say that you did the right thing."

"But at least judging from the results, your behavior did not cause any bad losses to your friends."

"Has he forgotten the tiger himself?"

The old lady's words comforted the old man to some extent.

Speaking of this, he was a little strange.

"Xiao Bai obviously cares about that tiger..."

"Why didn't you come again later?"

The old man was puzzled.

Moreover, there is an agreement between Xiaobai and Tiger to meet.

That agreement doesn't mean that if you don't see me today, you won't see me again later, right?

Xiaobai is not a person who forgets his promises.

Being unable to attend an appointment due to illness is a matter of course.

But even after he recovered, he did not come to fulfill his promise...

"Why?"

The old man murmured.

"You have to ask yourself this."

The old lady shook her head, "But..."

"But what?"

The old man asked, "Did you think of something?"
