Diary of a Dead Wizard - Chapter 102

Chapter 102 Please give me your eyes

run away. Sol doesn’t care about an old madman.

He just thinks that the old madman has some secrets, and he doesn’t know if it is related to the grinding fruit.

He walked back to Ada’s house.

Every time Ada left, he would lock Penny in the house for a whole day. She

ate, drank, defecated, and urinated in it.

Sol walked to the door of the room, and the door lock opened automatically with a click, and the lock fell right into Sol’s palm.

As if hearing a sound, the cabinet door on the wooden bed was pushed open from the inside.

Sol walked into the room and saw Penny crawling out.

“Brother Sol!” Penny crawled out, sat on the edge of the bed with her legs apart, and raised a big smile.

Sol put away the playful smile he maintained outside and sat next to Penny expressionlessly.

“How do you know it’s me? Are you really blind?”

There was a kettle and a few green steamed buns on the wooden bed.

None of these foods were touched.

The little girl’s lips were white and cracked again, but she endured not eating or drinking.

She no longer wanted to satisfy her physiological needs in the room.

“I really can’t see it. I just heard the footsteps of Brother Sol.”

“You seem to be very familiar with me.” Sol looked at her sideways, “When we parted, you were only three years old, right?”

Penny unconsciously tugged at the corner of her clothes, which were already full of wool.

“Yes. But Ada has always dreamed of Brother Sol.”

Dream? Nightmare butterfly?

Sol’s face changed, and he looked at Penny’s silver eyes seriously.

Those eyes were very beautiful no matter from which angle they were viewed.

But if an ordinary person thought they were beautiful, they would probably also find them a little scary.

“You can see your brother’s dream? Always?”

This time it was Penny’s turn to be surprised. She turned her head and looked at Thor’s face. She was stunned for a while before she giggled: “Ada doesn’t believe Penny. Brother Thor, you are so kind.”

“Ada often dreams of the day he escaped from the village. He carried me on his back and occasionally looked back at you trapped in the flames behind him. All he could hear was your voice asking for help.”

“He always dreams of it.”

“I asked for help?” Thor blinked slowly and suddenly understood why Ada took him in.

“It was Brother Thor’s voice. I recognized it the day you came.” Penny smiled with her lips pursed, very proud.

Thor is fourteen this year. Maybe because of his malnutrition in the past, his voice has not changed yet.

Thor has never heard of nightmare butterflies. When he heard Penny say that he could see other people’s dreams, he immediately became interested and even forgot about the grinding fruit.

“Can you see it in your dreams?”

“Yeah, I can. In my dreams, I am Ada.”

So that’s how it is. No wonder Penny doesn’t call Ada brother. At the age when she started dreaming, she probably couldn’t figure out whether she was Penny or Ada.

Ada said that Penny disappeared when she ran away from the village at the age of three, so Penny may have shared dreams with Ada since she was three years old.

This could easily cause Penny’s cognitive confusion.

But there is something even more terrifying…

Sol asked: “Penny, in addition to Ada’s dreams, have you ever entered other people’s dreams? Do you know that those experiences are dreams?”

Penny tilted her head, “At first I only saw Ada’s dreams, and later I could enter the dreams of people nearby. Like the old madman’s dreams, he always saw the village destroyed by barbarians. And Uncle Jayce’s dreams, he always dreamed that his daughter died and was cut into several pieces. And Aunt June’s dreams, she always dreamed that she killed her husband, beheaded him first, separated his body, and then slowly hid it in a basket and threw it out.”

As for the second question, Penny didn’t answer, as if she had forgotten it.

“Do you know that it was a dream?” Sol asked again.

Penny then remembered, “I didn’t know at first, but then I kept dreaming about it, and I knew it was a dream.”

“Are you scared?”

Penny grinned, “I’m not scared. Ada said that you don’t have to be scared of dreams, you’ll be fine once you wake up.”

Sol stared at the little girl, speechless for a moment.

Although Penny could talk to him smoothly and had the innocence of a little girl, it could be heard that her perception of the world was already a little confused in the interweaving of dreams and reality. When

she talked about those memories that were very painful for the parties involved, there was no emotional fluctuation.

There was a kind of calmness that came from being accustomed to life and death.

And she was really accustomed to life and death.

“Penny,” Sol finally spoke, “you can see other people’s nightmares, mostly because of your eyes. If there is a chance to take away your eyes… would you be willing?”

The room was quiet for a while.

After a while, Penny covered her eyes with her two thin palms.

“No!”

Thor stood up. Penny heard his movements and covered her eyes while looking up.

“No!” Penny repeated again, with a firm attitude.

Thor’s hand pressed on the back of Penny’s hand, and the black tentacles came out from behind his neck and slowly wrapped around the little girl’s arms. As long as Thor gave an order, it would pull the girl’s arms apart and let Thor do whatever he wanted.

“You will become a puppy if you take things from children.” Penny threatened Thor.

Thor slowly withdrew his hand, and Xiaozao followed with some regret.

“This is very dangerous for your eyes. I hope you can change your mind soon.”

Penny heard the sound of Thor’s footsteps moving towards the door, and then the sound of him stepping over the threshold.

She seemed to have forgotten that Thor was going to take her things just now, and quickly put down her hands, leaned on the wooden bed, and asked anxiously: “Where are you going, brother Thor?”

“Going out to find a job.”

Then there was the sound of the door closing and locking.

Penny sat there, wondering if brother Thor was angry. The emotion in his voice was harder to discern than Ada’s.

Penny touched her eyes.

She just felt that if there were only two holes left here, she wouldn’t look good, would she?

Not long after, Penny began to feel bored again.

If Brother Thor could play with her for a while longer in the future, then her eyes would become black holes.

Her hand touched the kettle beside her. She felt thirsty, but didn’t want to drink. She just pouted and pushed the kettle away.

After an unknown amount of time, someone knocked on the window frame outside.

“Little Penny~” Uncle Jayce’s voice sounded.

Penny climbed back to the cabinet skillfully, with her face against the window, “Ada won’t let me pay attention to you.”

“Don’t listen to your stupid brother.”

“Well, Penny also thinks Ada is stupid.”

…

Thor walked around Mofan Town again and basically figured out the relationship between “holy fruit” and “adoptive mother”.

This Mosheng fruit may be similar to the companion flower of the wizard tower. They all like to absorb the breath of the dead, but the Mosheng fruit probably likes the fresh girl’s smell.

He couldn’t help but think of a senior named Peggy, who used a piece of tender thigh skin to temporarily create a mask to confuse the evil spirit’s senses in order to attract the evil spirit to him.

Could it be that the taste of the grinding sound fruit is the same as that of the evil spirit?

While strolling, Thor sneaked into the open space near the grinding sound fruit planted, where the strongest guards in the town were still gathered, but there was no trace of the girl who was captured in the morning.

Doesn’t the process of nourishing the grinding sound fruit need to be carried out in the grinding sound fruit field?

But he soon noticed that the door of the three-story tower that was sealed tightly last night was opened a little.

The small tower is a mixture of wood and stone. It looks old and shaky, but the next second it makes people feel indestructible and will stand there forever.

There is no one guarding around the tower.

The half-open door looks like it is inviting someone to come in.

Thor looked at the diary from the heart.

The diary ignored him.

Instead, Xiaozao ran out and pressed his face against him.

“Is there a spirit there?”

Xiaozao shook his tentacles back and forth.

Sol touched the tip of Xiaozao’s tentacles and told it to go back.

Xiaozao was always more obedient than the diary, and it shrank away in an instant.

Sol waited until it was almost dark before returning to the courtyard where Ada was.

But as soon as he approached, he heard a shocking noise coming from the courtyard, and Ada’s extremely angry shout.

“I told you to stay away from her!!!”

Sol walked through the gate and saw that the courtyard was in a mess.

Several ropes hanging in the courtyard fell down, and clothes and shoes were scattered all over the floor.

Many of the sundries that were originally placed in the courtyard were also knocked over.

A woman was peeking behind the window, and when she noticed Sol’s sight, her figure disappeared immediately.

In the middle of the messy courtyard was Ada, whose face was flushed and panting, and Jayce, who was lying on the ground, still grinning.

The door of Ada’s house was open, and the lock hanging on the door was bent and broken, half on the ground, and half hanging loosely on the door.
