Chapter 60, The Witch (2)
One of the demon kings in the religion of a country in the legend of Rahu, secretly drank the water of immortality and had an immortal body, and finally was dismantled into eight pieces, and the body turned into a dark star, and the resentment often swallowed the sun and the moon, and the solar and lunar eclipses in the world were caused by this, of course, this is a mythological story and cannot be taken seriously, but the name of Rahu has become synonymous with demons.
Gong Yuling doesn't remember what happened when she was a child at all, to be precise, she doesn't remember what happened before she entered the Gong clan, although the Gong clan told her that she was born humble and poor, and her parents sold her to the Gong clan when she was very young, and then she was favored by the palace chief and became a candidate for the future head mother of the Gong clan.
But these are actually not Gong Yuling's own memories, but what the Gong clan told her, she grew up in the Gong clan and didn't care too much about the past, and the palace chief was also very good to her, almost holding her in the palm of her hand and pampering her, so she always believed what the Gong clan told her.
But she has a few strange things that are different from ordinary people, for example, she sometimes is in a daze, silently watching the dark shadows alone, until someone calls her name next to her, she will come back to her senses, and when cooking in the dormitory, she will never enter the kitchen, because it seems that it will be very uncomfortable to see the flame on the stove, once Tang Yao walked in when she was making breakfast in the morning, and after seeing the flame, she fainted directly, and she didn't wake up until the afternoon, but it seemed to be okay after checking, And the strangest thing is that every time she sees the rain outside, she will be very excited, and will take a small bowl or a small basin and put it on the windowsill to catch the rainwater, she said that if it catches fire, this bowl of water may save everyone, and this kind of thing she will say almost every time it rains, and then everyone laughs at it.
Tang Yao knew that Gong Yuling had some strange behaviors, and he also asked Gong Hua, Gong Hua said that there might be some psychological problems, but in modern society, who doesn't have any psychological problems when the pressure on work and life is so great, and there are many people around Tang Yao who have some strange behaviors, such as obsessive-compulsive disorder or severe cleanliness, so they don't take it seriously.
It can be said that except for the fact that Gong Yuling was arrested this time, and then she felt extremely guilty and blamed herself after everyone fell into a trap and caused major damage to the team, her whole life is actually quite happy so far, although she wants to marry an uncle who is much older than herself, but the palace chief is really good to her, she has given everything that should be given, and she is satisfied with what should be satisfied, and Tang Yao also heard from Gong Yuling that the palace chief even promised Gong Yuling that unless Gong Yuling agrees, she will not touch her after marriage, of course, the palace family also has a bottom line, That is, Gong Yuling must give birth to children for the palace chief, and as for when to give birth, it is up to the palace chief to decide for himself.
However, there are also disadvantages of marrying into the palace clan, freedom is definitely not as free as it is now, everywhere you go, you are a bunch of people to follow, you can't go to a nightclub, you can't go shopping like an ordinary person, and you have to learn a lot of etiquette that the so-called clan housewife should learn, you have to control your weight, learn a lot of languages, not only foreign languages, but also learn some dialects from all over the world, life must be very hard, so the palace chief agreed to give her a pre-marriage to let off steam.
In fact, Gong Yuling is not particularly annoying to the palace chief, in her words, she has met countless times with the palace chief since she was a child, has eaten countless meals, and feels like a family for a long time, she said that the palace chief is an uncle with three points of appearance and seven points of charm, and said very seriously that if the palace chief is ten years younger, he may really fall in love with him, this is a man worth marrying, he is cruel to the outside world, but he is very gentle with his family, especially himself, and even took the initiative to bend down to tie her shoes. I went down to the kitchen to cook for her.
In other words, Gong Yuling is really happy, not worrying about food, clothing, and money.
But what if everything the Gong clan told her was fake, and she was deceived from the beginning?
The monster wriggling in the dark, claiming to be the daughter of Rahu, said that she was the descendant of the demon, Gong Yuling couldn't see her appearance clearly but could feel her presence, her fingers seemed to pass on some kind of power to Gong Yuling, opening some of her memories, after the memory of the cave, Gong Yuling's eyes were covered by fire, she saw the flames burning half of the mountain, she saw some vague figures running in front of her in a panic and then being killed by a mysterious person in black iron armor.
It began to rain in the sky, but the drizzle could not extinguish the burning flames, and then she saw a pair of hands grasping her shoulders, and heard someone say to her: "Yuling, run with your mother, run......"
"Ahh At this time, Gong Yuling suddenly screamed as if she had woken up from a nightmare, the door was opened, and she heard Shangguan Fumeng's voice, and then was held in Shangguan Fumeng's arms.
"What's the matter, what's the matter, just now I knocked on the door outside for a long time, and found that you were crying and shouting inside, so I asked people to come to the front desk to get the room card, and when I opened the door, I saw you like this, what's wrong with you?"
Gong Yuling buried her head in Shangguan Fumeng's arms, and whispered: "It's so dark, it's so dark in the room just now, there's a monster here, it says it's the daughter of Rahu, says that I have known it for a long time, and showed me some pictures, saying that these pictures have something to do with me, I saw a lot of people die, and I saw a flame burning half of the mountain, I saw a warrior in black iron armor killing, it rained in the sky, but the rain couldn't extinguish the flames, I was so scared...... I...... I also heard a woman say she was my mother. ”
No matter who these words are like a nightmare, Shangguan Fumeng also thinks so, since the incident of Ryota Hirai, the entire floor of the hotel has been covered by Shangguan Fumeng, and a large number of people have been transferred from China to support, and protective measures have been set up on the entire floor, not to mention that things like ghosts do not exist, and even if they exist, it is impossible to enter, so the monsters and the like that Gong Yuling said are most likely to be nightmares.
"Are you under too much pressure, it's okay if you lose tomorrow's game." Shangguan Fumeng comforted.
"No, what I said is true, I saw the monster, just now I was drinking in the room without the lights on, and then she came out......"
Shangguan Fumeng shook his head at her and said gently, "When I came in, the light was on in your room, and the wine bottle was empty, did you drink too much and then fall asleep?" ”
Gong Yuling looked at the light above her head, she did try to turn on the light when she met the monster before, but her body seemed to be frozen and couldn't move, and she also remembered that she hadn't drunk too much, and there should be more than half of the wine bottle.
"How can this be, I haven't drunk so much, I'm ...... I have a headache, I'll sleep in your room tonight. Gong Yuling said.
"Okay, you come with me, I told you that you don't have to worry too much about tomorrow's game, with me and Fang Chao, it doesn't matter if you lose...... There are also girls who can't drink so much, you see if your skin has deteriorated recently, come to my room and get a face mask......"
Gong Yuling listened to Shangguan Fumeng's nagging, turned her head to look at the room that was being cleaned, she looked at the corner where the monster appeared, she didn't know why the window next to the corner was open, and she didn't remember that she would open the window of the hotel room.
The next day's game was not smooth, almost as expected, the Tang Nest team was booed after playing, the opposing team is another local team in this group, the current record is one point, that is, won one, after playing the Tang Nest team, the next game will be with the Nordic team, if they can beat the Tang Nest team, it is two points tied for second, even if it loses to the Nordic team, it is still two points, and the last game will be won automatically by bye, That is, to take one point directly from the team that has been removed for using banned moves, so that it is three points, the Nordic team is currently mostly injured and recovered, although it lost to the Tang Chao team in the opening game, but as long as it wins all the games, it will directly qualify as the first place.
In other words, the current Tang Chao team is very dangerous, and Shangguan Fumeng and Fang Chao can't turn the tide.
On this day's game, Gong Yuling made her debut as a substitute, the other party collected information about her early in the morning, and began to launch a fierce attack on her, the three-hour game ended in an hour and a half, Gong Yuling retired with a slight injury, Fang Chao and Shangguan Fumeng also did not dare to fight hard in order to preserve their strength, and finally the Tang Chao team lost.
In this way, it fell from the first place to the second place, and if it loses the next game, it is basically hopeless to qualify.
