Chapter 19: The Ghost Mother

The words of the woman's ghost, Fusu immediately remembered that late night twenty years ago. When I first returned to the world, I met very few people and things. He rarely interfered in human affairs, and the memory that can be traced is the accident. What's more, it's a female ghost!

If it weren't for that accident, Meng Yi would still be a bad guy, and he didn't know where to look for him.

At that time, the soul of the woman who originally died due to dystocia was temporarily sent back to the body by Fusu with spiritual power, so what about after that?

Fusu and Meng Yi, who met by a miracle, had too many emotions to tell in addition to their joys and sorrows, and the two left the small village in a hurry.

For more than 1,000 years, I have seen the life and death of the world, and for Fusu, the fall of life is just a process of transformation.

Whether he helped out in a moment of circumstance was unbearable or the kindness in his nature, he himself couldn't tell.

I didn't think about it again afterwards, and in the past twenty years, I and Meng Yi have been looking around for the entrance to the Xiling Hesheng Gate, and the encounter that night seemed to the two of them to be an encounter of fate and the guidance of the gods.

As for the small courtyard, no one thought about it anymore. I didn't even think about it anymore or didn't care about what happened to the woman who was rescued by Fusu who couldn't bear to come out for a while?

No one knew what happened after that, except for the woman herself.

Fusu silently recalled that he suddenly felt a trace of apology in his heart for no reason, and looked at the ghost in front of him with a little self-reproach. What happened on that night we met by chance twenty years ago and missed it?, he listened quietly to her continue.

Twenty years ago, after the woman's soul was sent back to her body by Fusu, she used her last strength to save her child with the help of Fusu's spiritual power.

When the child was born, the woman exhaled her last breath as a human being.

Her soul was out of her body, getting lighter and lighter, but she couldn't just drift away. Looking at her newborn child, she had only one thought in her heart: she had to find a way to save the child.

She fluttered out of the courtyard and shouted loudly, but people couldn't hear her. After wandering around several homes, she came to a yard with a big yellow dog. The yellow dog was alert to her approach, and instinctively barked wildly. Soon, the host's house was woken up by such a shout, thinking that he had entered the thief and hurriedly dressed and came to the courtyard.

The kind-hearted peasant heard the cry of a baby not far away, and the village had not heard of anyone in the village who had a baby except for the girl of the He family who was about to give birth.

Instinctively aware or due to the kindness and spirituality of human beings, the peasant couple hurried to the courtyard of the He family.

The husband and wife saw the woman dead in a pool of blood in the house, the poor little baby was breathing desperately, and the umbilical cord was still connected to the miserable mother and son...

The peasant woman had two children, and her experience allowed her to successfully save the miraculously born child.

The girl of the He family lost her adult in her early years, and married a farmer when she became an adult. Unfortunately, the man went to the river early one morning to catch a fish for his pregnant wife, but the fish never came back. She took her unborn posthumous son back to the He family's courtyard alone. Without brothers and sisters, there would be no one to see her off.

So, hastily, this poor man passed away quietly in this way, leaving behind a child who could not come to this world.

The peasant couple adopted this lonely widow, and then because they could not afford to raise the child, when the child was three years old, they gave the little girl to a cousin surnamed Cha.

In this way, the child came to Chajia Village.

The ghost followed all the way to Chajia Village, and this stay was more than ten years.

In this way, she became a ghost in the Chajia Village.

"Thanks to you, my child can come to this world and grow up to this age, I am very grateful to you!"

Fusu listened to her story, thinking about the little life that came to the world because he couldn't bear to intervene in the Yin Crossing Soul for a while, the life of the past twenty years of tossing and turning, is it really, a blessing?

Is such a miserable life worth celebrating?

"Your child?" Fusu suddenly realized something. Could it be... He secretly wondered if it was her??!!!

"It's the girl you just met in the front yard. Speaking of his own child, the ghost's face naturally warmed up with a gentle smile.

The rainbow girl on the top of the mountain, the daughter of a ghost.

"Benefactor, I appreciate you, but I hope you don't talk about it to her. Is it okay?" she heard their conversation in the front hall, and knew that Fusu had come to the ancestral hall to find her, but she didn't know the identity of the person who came. If it was a shadowy errand, she still had a way to dodge. However, if it was the evil spirit of the past, she knew that she was already weak, and now because she wandered the world and was unwilling to leave, the little spiritual power she had left was not at all against the other party.

She didn't say anything about it to Fusu, although she also knew that her benefactor had no ill intentions.

For this, Fusu originally did not intend to meddle in things, he respected the wishes of the deceased.

"It's your own business, as long as you're not... It's not about harming people's lives. After a pause, Fusu felt that he still needed to be honest.

"Your spiritual power is gone. If you stay long enough in the world, you will have no chance! In a few days, if you don't enter samsara, you won't have a chance again. When the time comes, you know what the result is. ”

"I know. The soul is gone! I know. The ghost said sadly, calmly, "I just... It's just that I don't worry about her. ”

As he spoke, the ghost phantom turned to look in the direction of the outhouse.

She saw the girl who was frozen and paused, and the water droplets splashed up, frozen in the air. The girl closed her eyes and waited for the drops of water to wash her cheeks, unaware that the ghost mother was looking at her.

Fusu has seen many unfortunate and miserable people in the past two thousand years, just like that sentence, happy people are roughly the same, and unfortunate people have their own misfortunes. And the fate of this mother and daughter can't help but make him feel the cruelty of the world again.

Following the ghost's gaze, Fusu also saw the girl. Who would have thought that this girl as bright as a rainbow would have such a fate?!

Such a miserable fate that makes people's hearts hopeless.

"Feeling your power coming to the ancestral hall, I thought it was a mistake. But it's not far away, it's time for the bad luck to come, and I'm not hiding. She withdrew her gaze from her daughter, nodded with difficulty, and muttered to herself in an extremely old tone, "It's time, it's time to go." ”

"Well, time is running out. Cherish yourself!" Facing the ghost's persistence, Fusu's heart was a little touched, but at the same time, he also felt that this was a meaningless confrontation between human beings in the face of fate. Poor, powerless life.

The ghost nodded to him and vanished, returning to the darkness.

The moment Lao Lu's raised right leg hit the ground, the water droplets in the outhouse finally jumped and pounced on the girl's face and then fell back into the basin. The wind blows the bamboo shadow and shakes...

Everything went back to its original trajectory, and nothing happened.

"Hey, why are all these lights on?" Lao Lu felt very strange, and blinked a little confused and muttered. At night, there was no one else in the ancestral hall except the girl who watched the door and kept vigil, and at this time the backyard and side rooms were brightly lit.

"Strange, what a hell of a life. Lao Lu muttered softly.

A smile bloomed at the corner of Fusu's mouth, thinking, this fat man is still quite smart, but if you really see the ghost, I'm afraid you won't be so calm.

"Let's go. It was late at night. Fusu turned around and walked out.

Lao Lu felt even more strange, just walked in, he didn't see anything, why did he have to leave.

But they were guests, even if they were confused, Lu Fatzi still happily followed Fusu out of the ancestral hall and returned to the hotel.

Fusu lightly tapped his finger at the moment he stepped out of the ancestral hall, and in an instant, the lights were bright and all went out, leaving a blank darkness.

The girl walked out of the hut with her ponytail tied and looked back and forth to make sure that the person had just left.

"Are you gone so soon?" the girl murmured, as if stunned.

She routinely checked the switches and porches everywhere, and when she was done, she sat down in the wooden corridor where the wing room meets the patio yard. He rubbed his shoulders with his hands, turning them as he rubbed them, looking a little sore. Then he began to beat his outstretched legs again, and there was a crackling sound in the yard.

Then there was a long silence, and the courtyard was empty except for her, so naturally no one would speak.

"Mom, I saw a rainbow today. The girl whispered, "Extraordinarily large, extraordinarily beautiful rainbow." ”

...

"I just didn't have time to draw it for my mother. After a moment's pause, she slowly continued, "Mom, I met a strange person. ”

"It's a strange feeling, like I've seen him somewhere, but I don't know him. ”...

"Mom, I'm so tired today, I'm sure I'll be able to sleep well at night. And then dreamed of mom. ”

The girl spoke quietly, not like talking to someone, but more like talking to herself.

In fact, she was really talking to herself, because no one responded to her words at all.

She stood up, spread her arms, and looked up at the night sky. There is no moon, and the stars are particularly dazzling.

"Good night, Mom. After saying this to the sky, the girl returned to the house, turned off the lights, and the whole ancestral hall fell into silent darkness.

Fusu didn't go to bed early.

On the shore of Peach Blossom Lake, the starlight is reflected on the lake, the breeze blows, and the lake jumps with the starlight.

Sitting on a wooden chair by the shore, motionless. But his mind was like the stars in a lake, shaking and trembling slightly.

Over the past 2,000 years, he has met interesting people to become friends and then watched them grow old and die, he has also intervened in human affairs when his mood suddenly changes, but he has never thought of asking the other party for anything in return, and he has also met the same soul in the cycle of human life, in different eras.

But never did tonight's reunion make his heart different from what it always was.

It was a very strange change, and he experienced it carefully. Quiet.

The girl looked very good, with a clean face, a nice smile, a lively figure, and a gentle voice. All of this is not so important, but the wonderful feeling is just caused by these ordinary things.

It is like the power of seeds sprouting under the soil in spring, and like the throbbing of a fragrant fragrance when the petals are about to bloom.

He suddenly wondered, wondered how she had lived these twenty years?

How did she face this lonely, desolate, miserable life, and how did she grow into what she is now.

He wondered if she had ever cried alone in the night, how much she missed loved ones she had never met, if she was doing well, if she had been treated with kindness, if she was really happy with such a bright smile, and...

Is she willing to come to this world?

If it weren't for herself, maybe she wouldn't have to face such a life.

If she knew that her life was like this, would she still be willing to come to this world?
