At the bottom of the first page of the booklet, my grandmother recorded a year that happened to be the year before I was born. So I said, before my mother gave birth to me, my grandmother lived here, so are these baby clothes for me?

Then I turned to the second page, and I thought it was a little strange when I read it, which recorded the situation of a child from morning to night, such as when to drink, when to cry, and when to sleep. But at the end of the page it will be written: Nothing unusual.

I turned through many pages in a row, and it was like this, and my grandmother seemed to be recording the baby's growth, but I didn't understand what the four words at the end of each page meant. Even though the daily records were similar, I carefully flipped through them page by page, for fear that I would miss something. Halfway through the booklet, which had been recorded for about fifty or sixty days, I suddenly noticed that the comment at the end of the page had changed, and it had changed to Yes: There is a change.

I re-read the page and didn't notice any changes in it. At this time, Sheng Shiyao suddenly stretched out the paper and pointed to the page, "You look at the time and frequency of feeding before and after the child." After he reminded him, he found that there was something strange, the number of feedings was twice as low as before, and the time interval was longer. But I didn't know anything about the baby's diet, and I didn't know what this change meant, so I looked up at Sheng Shiyao in confusion.

His dark eyes drifted to me and said, "Don't look at me, I haven't taken a child, and I don't understand." After a pause, he said, "But according to common sense, if you feed so little, the child should be hungry." ”

With each subsequent page, I noticed that the amount of milk I was feeding my child was gradually decreasing, and the words at the end of the page became a record of my child's pulse. The more I looked at it, the more frightened I felt, the child's pulse was getting weaker and weaker, was my grandmother experimenting with this child? When I saw that at the end of a page in the second half of the book was written "Breathing and pulse stopped", my heart suddenly cooled.

The hands holding the booklet began to tremble slightly, and my grandmother's place in my heart was irreplaceable, and I could not imagine how my grandmother could bear to experiment on the baby in such a starving way and cause it to die. But listening to Sheng Shiyao on the side: "There is still a line of words at the bottom." I looked down in a daze, fixed my gaze, and really saw that there was a line of small words below the "breathing and pulse stopping".

It was written: The heartbeat is still there.

This...... Isn't this the same symptom that my grandmother had later? I couldn't wait to look down, and the baby's diet and sleep records were gone, but instead of recording the changes in the child's complexion, and the comments on the last page were still the same: breathing and pulse stopped, and the heartbeat continued. After turning fifty or sixty pages, I finally saw that the record said that the child's breathing had returned, and his pulse was beating.

I breathed a sigh of relief that this kid was finally fine.

Before I knew it, I had turned to the last few pages of the booklet, and I saw that the child had become normal again, and the time before and after was counted for nearly half a year. When I turned the last page, I saw that it was covered with a lot of words, not like the previous zero landing record. The more I looked at it, the more frightened I became, and when I saw the end, I was shocked on the spot.

Sheng Shiyao took the booklet, skimmed it quickly, and looked at me with deep thought in his eyes when he looked up.

I can't believe that the child of this record is actually me!

On the last page, my grandmother wrote: "I have finally completed this process, I don't know how long this method can protect this child, the only thing I can do is to hide her soul as much as I can, hoping to find peace for a while." But I'm afraid that my Cheng Qingping's strength is shallow, and I can keep it for a while, but I can't save it for a lifetime, I only hope that the ancestral purple gold box of the Cheng family can suppress the evil and protect her safety. Gu set today as the day of the child's rebirth, and now it is dawn in the morning, so I will name it Xiao, inherit my family name, and hope to be blessed by my ancestors.

Cheng Xiao, that's how my name came from.

In other words, in fact, I should be twenty-six years old, and the half year recorded in this booklet is not that my grandmother is experimenting with me, but that she is casting some kind of spell, which is similar to that of Yang Shou Zhen Yin, and the purpose is to protect me.

At this point, there is no need to guess, I can't be my grandmother's own granddaughter. So where do I come from? Where did my grandmother pick me up? Obviously, before entering this stone room, there must still be some entanglement, otherwise why would an ordinary child perform this kind of mysticism?

Remembering that Sheng Shiyao understood this, he was about to ask, but he suddenly spoke: "Do you know why I set up a bureau to lead you to me in the first place?" I was stunned, I didn't understand why he asked, this matter did bother me for a long time, I never got an answer, I can only be sure that my encounter with him was not accidental.

I saw Sheng Shiyao squint his eyes and said, "Actually, that night was not the first time we met. Earlier, when you first arrived in Jingzhou, you passed me with your suitcase, and I paid attention to you. You know why? Because as long as normal people have soul energy, and your soul energy is so faint that it is difficult to detect, but there is a yin energy surrounding, this kind of breath is not perceptible to ordinary people, but people who know magic can find it.

You also understand Zhou Tong's situation, relying on the life-sustaining lamp and the immortal card to collect soul qi in the body, but they still use handwriting bodies, so they will not be stronger than the soul qi. And your situation is very similar to borrowing a corpse to resurrect a soul, but what makes me wonder is that the temperament of the resurrected person is usually very bad, unlike you who seem to be a normal person at all. So I had the idea of temptation, set up that game, and led you to the side, and when I pinched your wrist and cut your pulse, I found that your pulse was normal, your breath was stable, and the magnetic field of your body and soul coincided.

Later, I found the purple gold box in your box, and I could sense a strong mysterious power in my hand, and guessed that your strange situation was the result of the influence of the power in the box, so I moved the idea of taking you by my side. But I found that the box only calms your soul, not the root of the cause, the real abnormality comes from your own bones. I can't figure it out, if you know occult arts, it's possible, but you don't know anything about occult arts.

It turns out that the answer is here, Cheng Qingping used the soul concealing technique on you when you were a newborn baby, but obviously later your soul qi still began to leak out, and for some reason, your yin qi was too strong, such a situation, it won't be long before you die. So in the end, she can only make amends, use yang shou to calm yin, and use controlled yin qi to cover your soul qi, so as to achieve the effect of two-phase coordination. It's a lot of hard work. ”

Suddenly realized, no wonder he wanted to set up a game to lure me into the bait, and then forcibly left me behind, the reason is here. I don't think there's anything awkward, there is no such thing as nothing in this world, I met him in Pingshui, it doesn't make sense that he was different from me at the beginning, so there must be a problem with "being different" at this time, and the reason for using me as a pillow is too far-fetched. In this way, it all makes sense, and it is no wonder that he has always been wary of me. I'm afraid that this wariness was only dispelled after I sought out him later and was honest with him.

Back in front of me, the question is still unsolved, why did my grandmother hide my soul? Does her desperate desire to protect me and keep me safe mean that if my soul is exposed, it will lead to disaster? Does this catastrophe come from itself or from the outside world?

If it were itself, then the greatest disaster would be death. But if it is the outside world, will it be the "above" in Aunt Mei's mouth? I prefer the latter, because if it is purely to save my life, there is no need to hide here for half a year to hide my soul, only the threat from the outside world will make her so cautious.

There are all kinds of signs that my birth was not simple, but how could I be raised by my grandmother?

"This doubt is actually very easy to solve."

I turned my eyes to Sheng Shiyao, and he glanced at the words on the booklet and said: "If you look at the relationship before and after, you can find that you were stolen away by Cheng Qingping, and she spent half a year working on it in order to cover up this matter." On the one hand, the meaning of rebirth is that you have a new life, and on the other hand, she freezes your bodily functions at the time of your birth through occult magic, and the previous half a year is equivalent to being erased. And because of the number of surgeries, the initial physical function change will be very slow, it will take a process, which means that you will remain in the state of nascent for up to a year, resulting in an age difference. ”

"So, even if someone tracks me down in the future, they won't suspect that I'm that baby, right?"

After Sheng Shiyao nodded, he thought about it and said, "It's still missing." ”

"What's missing?"

"Human witnesses. Your birth must be witnessed in order to turn falsehood into truth. Didn't you say that Cheng Qingping once told your mother that she died in childbirth? It seems that this difficult woman must really have someone, and only by letting the villagers see such a process can it be regarded as a real secret. And Zhang Liuye, who is next door to your house, must be one of the witnesses. ”

"But Zhang Liuye said that grandma doesn't have a daughter...... I instinctively retorted, but he cut off the words: "No daughter doesn't mean you don't have a mother, I suspect that Cheng Qingping also knows how to disguise, it is likely that this pot-bellied pregnant woman is pretending to be herself." Zhang Liuye couldn't believe what he said, because he was suspicious of us at the time, and he would not really tell Cheng Qingping. ”

In this way, many doubts still have to be asked by Zhang Liuye to understand. If it was dark today, I wanted to go to Zhang Liuye immediately, but was stopped by Sheng Shiyao, "I just startled the snake, do you think they will leave easily?" There must be someone left in the old house waiting for the rabbit, and if you go back now, you will be caught. ”

"What then? I just waited, and I don't know when they will leave. I'm afraid that Zhang Liuye will be seen pretending to be crazy and stupid, wouldn't that hurt him? That group of people can do anything. "Take the car accident of Zhang Liuye's children as an example, this group of people is obviously inhumane.

Sheng Shiyao groaned and said: "When the night is thicker, I will go back alone to check it out, you stay here, if something happens, it will be easier for me to get out alone than two people." ”

I was tempted to object, but I shut up when I heard his last words, and it was.
