Chapter 4723 Ring
The girl suddenly thought of a question.

"what."

The girl gasped.

"Xiao Xiao."

She stared at Xiao Xiao with sparkling eyes.

"I have a question about me... I wonder if you can answer it for me..."

The girl's voice became softer and softer.

……

"You ask."

Xiao Xiao smiled.

……

The girl swallowed.

"that is……"

She tugged on the balloon.

A bit of nervousness in his heart was revealed.

"Why haven't the monsters..."

"Eat me?"

The girl spoke the last three words vaguely.

"It wants to eat me, right?"

The girl raised her voice slightly.

"Then why..."

"Or is it just trying to play a trick on me?"

Isn't it interesting to see her running away in fear?
……

this problem……

Xiao Xiao curled the corners of his mouth.

"Because it can't eat you, of course."

……

"……what?"

The girl was stunned.

A very unexpected answer...

"It...can't eat me?"

The girl's tone was light and flirty.

His face was full of disbelief.

How can it be? !
She still remembers the fear of the monster's mouth right behind her...

It seemed as if she would be swallowed by the monster in the next second...

But I don’t know why…

The girl's brows were knitted together.

……

"There is something on your body that protects you."

Xiao Xiao's gaze swept over the girl's body imperceptibly.

Soon, his eyes were fixed on the girl's neck.

The pendant cannot be seen through the clothes.

Only the red rope around the neck was exposed.

……

Is it this one?

Xiao Xiao seemed to be thinking about something.

……

The girl opened her eyes wide in surprise.

"mine?"

She pointed at herself and asked, "Is there something on my body protecting me?"

"what?"

"Is that the thing that prevents the monster from eating me?"

"How did you do it?"

"I don't feel anything at all."

"I don't feel anything when something in me takes effect?"

"I didn't see any white light or anything."

The girl was so surprised that she talked a lot.

……

Really...

The girls were really surprised...

Xiao Xiao is special...

Ok.

The facts were there, and she had no choice but to believe it.

But there's something special about her...

She couldn't believe it.

It's on her own body! ?
As a person, she had no idea...

……

She knows nothing.

This is too strange...

Isn't it something on her?
How could she have such a magical thing on her body?
How can it be……

impossible.

This was... she was even tempted to say ridiculous.

How could she not know what was in her?

She never knew she had something so powerful in her.

It can actually protect her from being eaten by monsters...

……

Wow……

Is she the hidden protagonist?
Carrying a treasure.

Girls have a lot of imagination.

But soon, she laughed at her own fantasy.

What are you thinking about?

……

"I don't know what it is about you that protects you."

Xiao Xiao’s words made the girl very disappointed.

"You don't know either?"

"Then how do you know—"

The girl pursed her lips.

He swallowed the unfinished question.

She didn't doubt Xiao Xiao...

She is...

Oh my god.

The girl has a headache.

This is all so crazy.

From the moment the monster appeared...

It's crazy...

… "The monster said so."

Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.

"As a person who has experienced it firsthand, I have the most say."

"Isn't it?"

……

girl:……

Yes.

Monsters have the most say.

So……

“…It’s actually true…”

The girl murmured.

After a few seconds, the girl shuddered all over as if she had thought of something.

The girl immediately lowered her head.

He searched his body.

what……

What was it about her that protected her?
She actually has something so powerful on her body.

She didn’t even know…

No wonder the monster followed her for so many days, looking as if it wanted to chew and swallow her, but never really ate her.

It wasn't that the monster was playing a trick on her...

But the monster had no way to eat her.

That is to say...

The girl paused.

She didn't need to be so scared.

Because the monsters couldn't do anything to her...

……

The girl quickly started moving again.

Forget it.

Those things are in the past.

There's no way to change it.

The most important thing now is...

Find the treasure on her body that can save her life from the monster.

Yes.

If what Xiao Xiao said was true, and it really was it that stopped the monster from eating her...

It is truly a rare treasure.

……

Finally, the girl pulled the necklace out of her collar.

A simple thin silver ring hangs from a simple red string.

this……

The girl looked stunned.

“…This is the ring my grandma gave me.”

The girl's voice was low.

"Before she left..."

The girl pursed her lips.

Her grandmother passed away due to illness when she was in elementary school.

……

fourth grade.

She was only in fourth grade at that time.

At this age, I am still ignorant about life and death.

She did not experience the so-called regret of not being able to see the old man for the last time as described in the novel.

She was watching the old man go -
Well.

That may not be accurate.

Because at that time she didn't know that grandma was gone, not asleep...

……

She was at the door at the time.

The adults didn't tell her clearly what happened.

If grandma hadn't said she wanted to see her, the adults wouldn't have let her into the house.

……

She was taken into her grandmother's room by the adults.

The house that should have been familiar to her inexplicably made her feel a little strange at that time.

She is very quiet.

Before coming in, she was repeatedly told by adults not to make any noise.

She is very obedient.

……

She saw her grandmother lying on the bed.

Gray hair.

She was a little stunned.

In her impression...
Grandma's hair is obviously not this color.

How come I haven't seen you for a few days...

She couldn't quite remember... When was the last time she saw her grandma?
But she thought it wouldn't be long.

The last time she saw her grandmother, her complexion was rosy and her hair...had only a few white hairs.

Unlike now...

For some reason, the child's voice began to sound like crying.

Even though he didn't know what the scene before him meant, the child instinctively felt uneasy.

"Grandma, why is your hair so white?"

There was innocent confusion on the child's face.

It forms a sharp contrast with her crying voice.

"grandmother……"

"Your face is so white too."

"Grandma, did you put on too much powder?"

"Mom, sometimes if you put on too much powder, you'll become very white-"

The child's unfinished words were interrupted by the movement on his shoulder.

Someone pushed her shoulder.

She looked up.

Her mother shook her head slightly at her.

The corner of my mother's mouth turned down.

Some look like they are about to cry.

……

She couldn't help but curl her lips.

……

The quiet and frail old man on the bed smiled.

"Ya, Ya."

The old man called out slowly and softly, word by word.
