The anomaly in the store made me want to run away, but I ended up still standing at the counter.

The people in the villages and towns closed their doors early and stopped showing up, and I couldn't ask for shelter.

No matter how fast I run, even if I can outrun the mother-in-law who cheats the corpse, I can't be faster than the speed of a ghost.

The mother-in-law opened her eyes and slowly stretched out her arms in the direction of the stairs, and the giggling sound disappeared with the sound of bouncing down the stairs.

The mother-in-law then slowly folded her arms, and the action was like hugging a small baby.

She folded her arms and lay straight back into the coffin.

At this time, the wind poured into the store, blowing out the white candle in front of the coffin and also blowing out the kerosene lamp on the counter.

The miserable white moonlight outside stopped at the door, in stark contrast to the darkness inside the store, as if separating yin and yang.

I stood upright, my fists clenching tighter and tighter.

The danger of not being seen is always the most terrifying.

Because you have no idea if the enemy is behind you and when it will give you the fatal blow.

"Girl, I'll tell you a story. After a long silence in the store, the voice of my mother-in-law suddenly sounded in my ears.

I was so frightened that I almost jumped up, and in a trance, I had cold air coming out of the shadows.

Perhaps, at some point, she moved silently behind my back, her mouth close to my right ear.

I clenched my fists even more, and my mother-in-law continued.

During the Yuan Dynasty, the Mongol princes once suggested that in order to prevent the Han people from rebelling, they should kill all the Han people with the surnames Zhang, Wang, Li, and Zhao.

At that time, there were also a few Han officials in the Yuan Dynasty court, who desperately opposed it, and said that the Han people could make cattle and horses for the Mongols, so that the slaughter was avoided.

In such an environment, people's lives are still gone, how can we talk about women's chastity.

Mongolia implements hierarchical management of the Han people in the Central Plains, and the Han people are the third and fourth grades.

The Han people in the north are third-class, and the Han people in the south are fourth-class.

Ten households and one guarantee, the chief of the security is a Mongolian or Semu people.

The Mongols had the right of first night over the Han Chinese.

That is, the Han newlyweds must give the Baochang Mongols the right to enjoy the first night for two or three days, and then they can have sex with their Han husbands.

In this case, the firstborn child of a woman is often not her own and her husband's flesh and blood.

Therefore, during the Yuan Dynasty, the first child of the Han people was often thrown to death at birth.

And because burying the corpses could be discovered by the Mongols and causing disaster, the bodies of children who had been killed were often stuffed directly into the porcelain of the home.

Blue and white porcelain was produced in the Tang Dynasty and prevailed in the Yuan Dynasty.

She got a Yuan Qinghua by chance, and there lived in it such a child who was killed by falling back then.

The child was too resentful, and after a long time, he still stubbornly stayed in the porcelain vase, full of hatred and violence towards everything.

It took her twenty years to get the boy to let his guard down against her.

She wanted to completely eliminate the resentment in the child's heart before she died, but she was killed because of her wishes.

She died so much that she didn't even have a chance to be reincarnated, and when it dawned again, she would lose her true nature.

If it weren't for the fact that the child came to her just now and loosened the ban she was under with yin qi, she wouldn't even have had a chance to tell me this passage.

She hopes that I can continue to take care of the children for her in the future.

She knew that I was still a child, and that her trust was too difficult for me, but she had no one but me who could entrust me.

Because the boy has lived in the porcelain vase for a long time and has been inextricably linked with the porcelain vase, I need to take good care of the porcelain vase.

The vase was in a cabinet under the bed in her room.

If the porcelain vase falls into the hands of someone with ill intentions, not to mention the child's ghost life will be in jeopardy, and the child's ability will most likely be used.

"Girl, find someone to burn my body after dawn. Remember!" The mother-in-law said this sentence abruptly, and her tone was hurried.

As she finished speaking, the store fell silent again.

"Mother-in-law, who killed you?Why do I have to keep in business or everyone will die?" I hurriedly inquired, but received no response.

I shuddered and rekindled the kerosene lamp on the counter.

There was no mother-in-law behind me, and the coffin was still sitting quietly.

I was about to hold a kerosene lamp to see if my mother-in-law was still in the coffin, when the friction sound of dragging heavy objects on the ground came from my mother-in-law's room.

Cabinet?

Yuan Qinghua?

I hurriedly took the kerosene lamp and walked briskly to the second floor first.

The door of the mother-in-law's room was wide open, the cabinet under the bed was gone, and there was no one in the room.

As I quickly checked the rest of the room on the second floor, I heard the brief screams of a baby coming from the first floor.

I hurried back to the first floor, and my mother-in-law's body was no longer in the coffin.

I chased out the door, and there was no one outside as far as my eye could see, except for a few beggars who were watching over me, cowering in the shadows in the corner.

I rushed to the beggars and asked them if they had seen my mother-in-law out of the shop and in which direction she had gone.

When I saw them up close, I felt a chill.

Several beggars sat straight, and the exposed areas had been skinned and deboned except from the neck up.

All of them had weird smiles on their faces, and there were no eyeballs in their sockets, only a black hole constantly spilling blood.

There was minced meat piled up at everyone's feet, and it was still steaming lightly.

I stepped back again and again, then turned around and went back to the kitchen to sit at the door of the shop.

By the time I sat down in front of the shop, the bodies of several beggars were no longer in their previous position, out of my sight.

I leaned my back against the wall so I could feel safe.

There was a faint movement similar to the impact of a copper bell, and I was suddenly refreshed.

Little monk?

I immediately sat up straight and listened carefully, and the sound of a brass bell striking continued to be heard.

Perhaps, I misheard, right?

The old man surnamed Gu also said that I continued to fall asleep after drowning, and all I experienced until I woke up in the hotel room was a fantasy.

If what he said is true, then the little monk is only a part of the illusion and does not exist.

I leaned my back against the wall and tightened my grip on the kitchen knife in my hand.
