Chapter 826: An Ancient Tree That Symbolizes the Four Seasons of the Year

When I heard my sister mention that my grandparents disappeared when I was very young, I was also sensitive to the fact that there must be a secret in it.

Maybe one day when grandparents appear again, it will be the day when all the truth is revealed.

Originally, I wanted to ask some more things about my grandparents, but when I saw my sister's lost look after mentioning my grandparents, I couldn't bear to ask any more.

First, I don't want my sister to be sad because of the memories of the past, and second, I think my sister should have been very young when my grandparents disappeared, I'm afraid she was seven or eight years old, so I might not be able to tell me what I really want to know if I asked.

I believe that grandparents have any inner words and secrets, and they will not say it to a seven or eight-year-old girl.

Even if she did, her sister would forget it because she couldn't understand it.

It's better to wait until you find your parents and ask them directly.

So I'm going to take advantage of the flight of the Golden Armor Chariot to ask my grandparents about the situation again.

Although I don't have any memories of my grandparents in this world, my intuition tells me that Haining Village, where my grandfather's house is located, should be far away from Sujiatun.

I believe that after my mother married into Sujiatun, with this common problem of underdeveloped transportation in ancient society, and the fact that our family was not wealthy, it should be inconvenient for my mother to take our sisters and brothers back to their parents' house often.

It is precisely because of this that my sister misses and cares so much about the grandparents who have lived with us since childhood.

And I also recalled a detail from before, that is, because I didn't have any memories of this world, when I asked my sister to tell me about my grandparents and grandparents, my sister frowned slightly when she heard me mention my grandparents, and she was obviously a little reluctant to mention my grandparents.

"Sister, this grandfather's house shouldn't be close to Sujiatun, right? Then we rarely have the opportunity to go to my grandfather's house to play since we were young? I'm afraid my grandparents have forgotten what we look like, right? Can you recognize the two of us when we meet?"

I looked at my sister, who was sad because she missed her grandparents, and tried to ask.

"Hey, since my grandparents disappeared when my sister was seven years old, my father went out to inquire about the whereabouts of my grandparents for nearly two years before giving up. During this period, he not only spent all the family's small savings, but also borrowed a lot of money from relatives, friends and grandparents. My mother had to take us to live at my grandparents' house temporarily, so that my father could go out to find my grandparents with peace of mind. Naturally, my grandparents didn't mind, but my uncle and aunt weren't happy. In the two years that I lived in the dormitory, my uncle and aunt always showed my mother's face behind my grandparents' back, always urged my mother to repay the money, and tried to get rid of us in a different way. Those cousins and cousins are always secretly bullying us. You don't know how many times you've cried when you've been bullied behind their backs! After I found out, I fought with my cousin a few times in order to get justice for you! You were so young at the time, you must not remember, right?"

My sister recalled with a sigh.

When I mentioned that my uncle and aunt gave my mother a look on my mother's face, and my cousin and cousin bullied our sister and brother, I looked at me with an aggrieved look and asked.

"This ...... I really don't even remember. Since my uncle and aunt snubbed our family of three so much, then after my father came back, he took us back to Sujiatun, and I must have never been to my grandparents' house again, right?"

I was a little speechless and didn't know how to answer, but I guessed with confidence.

"Yes, after my father came back and took us back to Sujiatun, in order to save money and pay off the debt as soon as possible, I never sent my mother back to my parents' house. So we haven't been back to my grandparents' house for 12 years. I guess I won't recognize the two of us when I go back this time. In the past 12 years, my mother has asked someone to send money to my grandparents' family every year, and it has been paid off last year. Every time, my grandmother would ask the person who sent the money to bring a letter to my mother to report her safety. They also said that they didn't care about the money, and they still hoped that their mothers would use the money to take us back to see them, and they also missed our two granddaughters and grandchildren. My grandmother later found out about my uncle and aunt's neglect of our family of three, and the letter said that she scolded my uncle and aunt for it. Let my mother not be reluctant to go back to her parents' house because of my uncle and aunt. My mother also replied that she promised to visit her grandparents next week for the Chinese New Year, but she didn't expect to be hunted down and killed yesterday inexplicably. I don't know if my father and mother got rid of the killer and returned to my grandfather's house. ”

My sister nodded and replied with a complicated expression.

"Sister, this grandparents have such snobbish uncles and aunts, and I'm not interested in going back. Especially when my father and mother are hunted down and their whereabouts are unknown, and we are now going back to my grandparents' house, won't this uncle and aunt have to show us two more faces? still ate and drank them for nothing, and designated to bully us twice as much behind my grandparents' backs, and do everything possible to get rid of us. So I think it's better to be like this, it should be not far from Haining Village now, so I'll secretly check if my father and mother are at my grandmother's house. If my father and mother are here, we will go to my grandmother's house. If my father and mother are not there, you still tell me which direction Sujiatun is. Let's fly back to Sujiatun directly to find my father and mother. With the spells I have so far, no matter how many killers chase after my parents, I can save them. In this way, it is a hundred times better than the two of us stupidly dying at grandma's house and waiting for our father and mother to come back to us, right? What if my father and mother are trapped by the killer in Sujiatun? If we don't help them, no one will be able to help them. ”

I suggested with a frown.

"That's right, the reason why my mother let us take refuge at my grandparents' house was because I was worried about the danger of being with them. And I also think that we are not like my father and mother who have learned swordsmanship, and we can't deal with those killers at all. Staying with them is a burden. I decided to come to my grandmother's house. Now that you know how to spell, it's different. We should have flown directly to Sujiatun just now! But now we should be almost in Haining Village, so let's go down and take a sneak look, as long as my father and mother are not there, we will fly to Sujiatun immediately. ”

My sister said in a tone that suddenly understood something.

"I don't have to fly down, I can use magic to see everything in my grandmother's house here. All you have to do is tell me where my grandmother's house is in Haining Village. ”

I stopped the Golden Armor Chariot in the air, closed my eyes and opened the Soul Clairvoyance and said.

Since my soul clairvoyance ability can see everything within a radius of two hundred miles, and at this moment, our location is only about a few dozen miles away from Haining Village, so there is no need to fly over my grandmother's house, I can confirm that my father and mother are not there.

"Brother, you're too powerful, aren't you? It's not close to Haining Village! You can actually see it clearly! That's great! I'll tell you where your grandmother's house is, you can take a look at it quickly." Well...... Grandma's house is located next to a pond in the southernmost part of Haining Village, and on such a cold day, the pond should have frozen, so I am afraid it is not very good-looking. But as long as you see a thousand-year-old tree in the yard, it is grandma's house, because the whole Haining village has this kind of thousand-year-old tree that symbolizes the four seasons of the year. ”

My sister said with admiration.

He also told me the location of my grandmother's house.

Following my sister's prompt, I quickly used my soul clairvoyance ability to find my grandmother's house next to the frozen pond.

In the yard of my grandmother's house, there is indeed a very strange thousand-year-old tree, this ancient tree looks quite magical, not only looks luxuriant, but also produces many extremely beautiful small flowers.

It stands to reason that on such a snowy day, the ancient tree should only have bare branches left, and it has been covered with ice and snow.

However, there is not a single snowflake in most places on this ancient tree, and the frozen places are like the most lush season of midsummer.

In addition to the small flowers, I even saw fruit in some places!

What's even more incredible is that this ancient tree does represent the four seasons of the year.

Some of the old trees have just sprouted buds, as if spring is coming.

In some places, it is lush and full of flowers, as if it were summer.

In other places, the leaves are golden and fall with the wind, like autumn when the leaves are scattered.

In some places, there are bare branches, and snowflakes as white as jade are piled up on them, which looks magical and beautiful.

I suddenly realized that this ancient tree definitely had a great origin, and once I found out its origin one day, it would definitely shock the entire Nine Heavens Great World.

After staring at the ancient tree for a while, I retracted my gaze and quickly looked at every house in my grandmother's house, and found that except for my grandmother, who was sitting alone on the kang and staring at a letter with a sad face, there was no one else, and it was estimated that my grandfather and uncle had gone out.

As for the letter in my grandmother's hand, I glanced at it, it was written to my grandmother by my mother before, and the letter did mention the meaning of going home to visit my grandparents during the Chinese New Year.

Obviously, my grandmother is also looking forward to our family coming home soon.

I took a quick look at every house in the entire Haining Village, and I saw my grandfather drinking and chatting with a few old grandfathers in another house.

I didn't see my uncle and aunt, and I didn't see my father and mother.

Since I didn't see my father, it means that my father and mother haven't arrived here yet, maybe they are still dealing with the killer somewhere, so I decided not to go to my grandmother's house for now.

Instead, he flew to Sujiatun and looked for his father and mother.

But when I think of my grandmother staring at my mother's letter at home alone, I can also understand my grandmother's eagerness to see our family at this moment.

So I couldn't bear to say to my sister: "Sister, my grandmother is the only one in the family, and she is sitting on the kang staring at the letter written to her by her mother, and she seems to want us to go back early." My grandfather was drinking and chatting with others at the neighbor's house. Uncle and aunt, they don't know where they went. I searched the whole village anyway and didn't see them. Even my cousin and cousin weren't there. Maybe I accompanied my aunt and uncle back to my parents' house for the New Year, right? I didn't see my father and mother, obviously they haven't returned here yet. Then should we go over and say hello to my grandmother and then go to my father, or should we go directly to Sujiatun to find my father?"

"Uncle, aunt, and the four members of their family are not in Haining Village? It's a bit abnormal that the family has left the village after the Chinese New Year! Even if they go back to their parents' home, it's not right! Because my aunt's mother's house is in Haining Village. It was the smallest thatched hut on the north side of the village. Brother, take a closer look, my aunt and uncle are not there? How can I have a bad premonition? I think we should go and visit my grandmother before leaving to find my father? Otherwise, I feel uneasy. ”

My sister said with a suspicious face.

After listening to my sister's words, I once again used my soul clairvoyance ability to re-examine the inconspicuous thatched hut in the far north.

It turned out to be really weird......
