Chapter 3: The Past

I remember hearing adults say that only married people wear rings on their ring fingers, because there is a blood vessel on the ring finger of the left hand that leads directly to the heart, which is also known as the "love vein".

"Well, that's not true, is it?" I quickly rubbed my eyes and touched the ring with my hand again, and a cold touch came from the ring, which was very cool and comfortable.

I wanted to take the ring off, but I found that it looked like it was on my finger, and it seemed to be fused with flesh and blood, so I hurriedly asked anxiously, "Grandma, this... What's going on? ”

"Alas! Grandma lost ten years of life in order to change her life for you, and it was not easy to get the consent of His Royal Highness the Prince, and it is also your blessing to marry you to him.

You are already the little princess, life is his person, death is his soul, and you can't fall in love with other men in this life. ”

I listened to the thump in the back of my head, and I was stunned.

"Grandma, you... You betrothed me to a ghost, the gray-clad imp? I don't like him! ”

I almost roared against the fierce wind blowing behind me.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, don't blame, the little girl is straightforward, I will slowly educate her, please atone for your sins!" Grandma hurriedly pleaded behind me.

Then, grandma looked serious and said in a tone of lesson: "Qingnan, you have to remember grandma's words, and you must be respectful to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the future, and you must not lose your courtesy." ”

"Alas! Do you remember what it was like? If you don't marry him, you will die, and the gods will not be able to save you. This is your life! Grandma spoke, her face gradually darkening.

After listening to my grandmother's words, I remembered that when I was three years old, my grandmother opened the altar and summoned the gray-clothed imp to treat me. Without my consent, she took it upon herself to get me married, and for this, my grandmother also lost ten years of life.

Looking at my grandmother's old face full of ravines, and her rickety body like a wind candle, all this is for me. The moment I figured it out, all my dissatisfaction vanished.

"Grandma, I'm sorry!" I feel guilty about it.

"Silly boy, I didn't have a way at the time, it's good if you don't complain about me, you've grown up, it's time to tell you something."

Grandma stroked my hair, seemed to have made up her mind, and said: "Grandma, my real name is "Kong Yuqiong", and after marrying your grandfather, my husband's surname is "Zhao Kongshi".

It's just because I raised ghosts and recruited ghosts when I was young and killed a lot of famous and decent disciples, and I was called Kong Lao Mo, and my hands were covered with blood. But, I have a clear conscience! Because I kill all the people who are evil, and some people are dressed in the skin of a famous and decent family, but they do things that are not tolerated by heaven, and they should be killed! ”

"When I was eighteen years old, I traveled and saw one day when my teacher taught his disciples to do evil things, and I was angry and angry, and I raised my sword to punish him. Unexpectedly, that disciple was the grandson of the Heavenly Master Sect, so he caused a catastrophe, and the people of the entire Dao Sect issued a chase and kill order without asking questions. ”

"It was a blood-stained time, when the country was in turmoil, and there was an invasion by foreign enemies, but those famous and decent people hid in the world, not for the national situation, but just for the sake of face, they chased and killed me for three whole years."

"Later, those disciples of the big faction who chased and killed me were killed countless times by me, which angered some unborn old monsters and blocked me in Lingnan."

"In that battle, I was exhausted, and when I was about to die, I was rescued by a masked man, and that person was your grandfather. He also used the method of confusing the heavens to create the method of faking my serious injuries and fake death, so as to dissipate the anger of decency. ”

Grandma's tone was simple and clear, and there were no emotional fluctuations! But even so, I can imagine that my grandmother experienced nine deaths at that time, and I don't know how much I experienced in the thrilling scene. I clenched my little fists tightly, and I felt my heart pounding, and I couldn't help but look forward to the rivers and lakes of happiness and revenge in my mind.

"Grandma, what happened?" I saw that my grandmother was silent and hurriedly asked.

"Later, I fell in love with your grandfather, and finally entrusted it for life. But your grandfather was a curious man, and he often went out on adventures, and sometimes he didn't see him for a year. Grandma said with a helpless smile on her face.

"The year after your father was born, your grandfather disappeared during an expedition, and I only know that he went to West Kunlun, and he has not been heard from since. I have spent 30 years walking in every corner of Kunlun Mountain, but I have not been able to find any trace of him. Later, I was discouraged and lived in seclusion. This is also the ancestral home of the Zhao family, guarding the mission of Tianda......"

Just when I was fascinated by what I heard, my grandmother suddenly stopped, and then said quickly: "Good granddaughter, someone is coming, go and change your clothes, and you are still wearing a wet neen, not shy." ”

"Oh, oh!" I remembered that I was still wearing a wet urine, and I immediately blushed and hurriedly ran to change my clothes.

"Is Grandma at home?" A young man shouted outside the door, followed by a knock on the door.

When I came out after changing my clothes, my grandmother had already opened the door, and there were two policemen standing outside, as well as Zhang Qingge from Zhangzhai.

One of the policemen, who was in his thirties and slightly chubby, asked, "Who is Zhao Qingnan?" ”

The policeman looked at me at the same time as he asked, this was the first time I saw the police, I couldn't help but panic, and hurriedly replied: "Uncle, I am Zhao Qingnan, do you have something to do with me?" ”

"Oh, little girl, why don't we ask you a few words, where did you go around eight o'clock last night?" Another slightly older policeman asked sternly.

"Uncle, I... I was playing with a few friends. I replied with a weak heart.

"Who are you playing with? When did you come back? What happened in between? Don't lie, kids! The chubby policeman smiled and touched my head, and the kind questioning made me feel a lot more relaxed.

"Last night, I went to the embankment with Zhang Shi, Kong Chao, Wang Lingling and Wang Feng to play. Later......"

As I was talking, I saw the older policeman take out a small notebook and pen and record it, and what he wanted to say was broken.

"What happened next?" The chubby policeman hurriedly asked.

I recalled what happened last night, and I told the story of encountering the female ghost in red possessing Wang Feng and then biting Wang Lingling, but I concealed the fact that I summoned the gray-clothed ghost. Instinctively, I thought that if I could summon imps, it would cause me trouble, and they wouldn't be able to see the imps I summoned anyway.

Ordinary people can't see ghosts, unless they want you to see them, or people like me who are born with yin and yang eyes can see ghosts.

The chubby policeman asked some more detailed questions, and then turned back to the older policeman and said, "Team Feng, I'm done asking, do you have anything else to add?" ”

The policeman known as Team Feng said: "Little girl, you said that you were stupid later, but I heard from another child that you were talking a few words at that time, and said that you were going to kill him or something, do you still have an impression?" ”

"Uncle, I really don't remember, I was scared to pee, my mind was blank, I don't remember how I got home." I whispered timidly.

"Auntie, this is your granddaughter, when did your granddaughter come back last night, do you know?" Team Feng couldn't see what to ask, so he turned his head and asked his grandmother again.

Grandma stretched out her hand and pulled me to her side, and then replied, "At about ten o'clock last night, when I was asleep, I heard the door open, and I realized that it was my granddaughter who came back, and she was dirty, and I thought she had gone crazy again, and I didn't care." This little girl has a jumpy temperament, and the old woman can't run around with her every day, I don't have that energy. ”

Grandma coughed slightly as she spoke, and her already clumsy body became more and more curved.

"Auntie, I heard the nearby villagers call you a fairy woman, may I ask you ......" Team Feng asked another question, and at the end he didn't seem to know what words to use to describe it, so he paused halfway.

Grandma coughed lightly a few times, "Alas, what a fairy woman, a goddess, I just studied Chinese medicine for a few years when I was young, and cured some minor illnesses and disasters of my neighbors, and the neighbors spread false rumors." The old woman didn't believe that I could have such a great ability. ”

Team Feng glanced at her grandmother deeply, and then said: "Excuse me, the whole community has not been peaceful recently, please don't go out casually at night, if something happens, go to Zhang Ping's house in Zhangzhai and call the police." Let's go, Xiao Zhou. ”

Team Feng finally waved his hand and beckoned the policeman surnamed Zhou and the young man from Zhangzhai to walk out.

Grandma watched the two policemen walk out of the courtyard gate and muttered in a low voice, "The whole community is not peaceful? Could it be that something is going on in the town, too? Alas, the storm is coming! ”

I wanted to ask something more, but my grandmother turned around and went back to the bedroom, leaving only a lonely back.

After dinner, I was grounded by my grandmother, and just as I was bored, there was a quick knock on the door, and I hurriedly trotted to open the door.

A man in his forties saw that it was me who opened the door, and asked hurriedly, "Girl, where is your grandmother?" ”

"Uncle Zhang, do you have something to do with my grandmother?" I saw that the person who came was Zhang Yu from Zhang Zhai, and he was also Zhang Shi's father.

Zhang Yu ignored me, and shouted anxiously at the house: "Fairy woman, help, my father cheated the corpse!" ”

My grandmother came behind me at some point, and asked with a serious face, "Don't worry, tell me in detail what's going on?" ”

When Zhang Yu saw his grandmother, he knelt down and cried and whimpered: "Fairy woman, my father died suddenly in the afternoon, and the villagers helped put him in the coffin, and everyone was having dinner, but the coffin rang loudly, and before we could understand what was going on, the coffin lid collapsed, and my father jumped out straight and straight, and bit when he saw someone, and now he has been temporarily held down by a few young men, you can go and see it!" ”

Grandma's face suddenly turned ugly, and she hurriedly entered the house to get a locked suitcase, and then she was about to follow Changyu to Zhangzhai.

"Grandma, grandma, take me with you, I... I'm scared alone! I hurriedly followed my grandmother's side, pleading pitifully.

"Alas, let's go, the good granddaughter can't run around, she must follow her grandmother's side." Grandma sighed and reluctantly agreed.

I jumped up and down happily, following behind my grandmother, I had grown so big, I had never seen a corpse, although I was not very bold, but my curiosity was very strong.
