Chapter 54: The Tribulation

Today, it is raining heavily, there are very few people coming and going on the streets, and there is no business in the pharmacy, it is empty.

I lowered my umbrella and leaned against the door and walked into the pharmacy.

When the little uncle heard the noise, he came out of the side room, and he thought it was a patient, but when he came out, he found that it was me, and the expression on his face began to become a little nervous.

"Anzhi, why are you here?" The little uncle asked knowingly.

I glanced towards the room inside and saw Chu Chu lying on the bed, asleep.

"Uncle, I'm here to ask you about my mother." I put it bluntly.

He didn't say a word, and turned to make me tea, deliberately trying to stall for time.

I looked at him and frowned, "Uncle, tell me, is my mother still alive?" ”

"Your mother is dead." The little uncle replied firmly.

"Dead?" I looked at my uncle and continued to ask, "How did you die?" She faked her death in Beijing back then, right? But why did she fake her death? Why did you leave me? ”

"Anzhi, what's the use of you asking these now? Your mother has been dead for so many years, and you don't have to pursue these past events. After the little uncle finished speaking, he made me tea, but his hand trembled, and the hot water was poured directly on the back of his hand, and he gasped in pain.

I hurriedly washed his wound with cold water on the side, but there were still two big bubbles on his hands, but there was no painful expression on his face.

He just lowered his eyes in distraction and remained silent.

"Uncle?" I called him.

Only then did he come back to his senses and looked at me: "Anzhi, do you have to know?" ”

"Yes, I should at least figure out how my mother died." I looked at my uncle firmly.

When my uncle saw my resolute attitude, he knew that he couldn't persuade me, and he couldn't hide it.

So, after being silent for a long time, he said helplessly: "Anzhi, there are some things, I still don't know, your mother didn't tell you at the beginning, presumably to let you live a peaceful and stable life, but now that my uncle has said it, it is contrary to your mother's intentions." ”

My uncle didn't want to disobey his mother, so he kept it and didn't tell me for a long time.

"Uncle, what you are worried about, maybe I already know, or perhaps, I know no less than you." I looked at my uncle.

I remember that when Long Xuanling first entangled me, my little uncle said something that was destined to be unavoidable, what did this sentence mean?

"What do you know?" My uncle looked at me a little nervously.

"Uncle, like my mother, there are some things that can't be covered up." I have already indirectly told my uncle that I know my identity.

If my uncle doesn't hear me, it proves that he probably knows less than I do.

And when he heard what I said, he was extremely stunned.

As soon as I looked at his eyes, I knew that he must know everything, so I brushed back the deliberately slanted hair, revealing the phoenix totem above the tail of my eyebrows.

This totem is becoming clearer and clearer these days.

When the little uncle saw it, he staggered directly and took a few steps back.

"Anzhi, you already?" He stared at me, his eyes full of shock.

"I know, I'm a demon. As soon as I said this, my little uncle immediately rushed to the door of the pharmacy nervously and closed the wooden door, for fear that people passing by outside would hear our conversation.

"What a demon, you are not a demon, you are a phoenix, a phoenix is a divine bird, not a demon." The little uncle argued.

"Little uncle, you really know everything." I looked at my uncle and couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

He knows everything, but he keeps hiding it from me.

"Uncle, I'm not a little girl anymore, I'm already a mother, tell me everything you know." I looked at my uncle with a serious face.

When my uncle saw me like this, he could only nod at me, and then pulled a chair over and asked me to sit down.

He himself hesitated for a long time, saying that he didn't know where to start.

"Have a cup of tea and speak slowly." Seeing him hesitant, I poured him a cup of tea and sat him down.

After the little uncle sat down, he pondered for a long time before speaking again.

"Actually, when I knew about this, your mother was pregnant with you and returned to the Wei family from Beijing." As the little uncle spoke, his eyes became misty, as if his thoughts had flown to a long, long time ago.

When my mother conceived me, my uncle was not yet ten years old, and my mother always loved him, a little brother who was not related by blood.

And that time, the mother came home to have a baby.

Before my mother conceived me and Taosheng, she had already given birth to several sons, all of whom died one after another, so it was naturally very careful to conceive flesh and blood again.

Hu Hongtian sent the best sedan chair and invited more than a dozen people to escort his mother back to Wei's house.

But this momentum is big, but eye-catching, actually attracted the attention of the bandits, passing through the mountain road, the bandits will rob the money, seeing that the other party is numerous, although the mother is pregnant, can only get off the sedan chair to help, and those bandits fight, and finally hit the side of the rock, directly from the mountain road rolled down.

After the mother woke up, she had already been sent to the Wei Mansion, and her body had already changed, and a red mole had grown at the end of her eyebrows.

This red mole made my maternal grandparents feel like they were enemies at that time, and told my mother the truth that she was a phoenix at that time.

The little uncle was young and curious at the time, so he eavesdropped outside the door.

My grandmother told her mother that the Wei family has never had a son to inherit the lineage, which is not accidental, but inevitable.

Because, the boys born from people and phoenixes are generally weak and cannot carry the blood of the phoenix.

Therefore, as soon as they are born, they will die immediately, and there is no chance of survival.

"At that time, your mother couldn't accept it, she thought that the phoenix was a demon, and locked herself in the room, she didn't want to eat and drink all day long, if it weren't for you and Taosheng, she would have starved herself to death." My uncle looked at me and shook his head.

"You know Momok Sheng, too?" I looked at my uncle.

"Your mother mentioned that I had never seen it, but I heard that it looked exactly like you." After the little uncle finished speaking, he fell into memories again.

Later, for the sake of the two children in her womb, my mother still resigned herself to her fate and obediently ate and drank supplements, but my grandmother was a little worried.

said that the mother should have been injured by the bandits, and she was going to die, but she didn't die, and after life and death, the Feng Ling Seal would disappear.

Soon the true body will be revealed, but once the true body is revealed, it will encounter a catastrophe.

Later, after my mother gave birth to me and Taosheng, she chose to take me away, and the reason why she cheated to death in advance was because she calculated that her catastrophe was coming, and she wanted to see if my "father" would still be good to me.

"As a result, as your mother expected, she did die two years later, struck by a thunderbolt, and her flesh and blood were blurred." The little uncle lowered his eyes with sadness in his eyes.
