Chapter 267: Tears Dry

The steamed bun, which was occupied by doubts, was finally unable to stretch out the hand holding the handkerchief, and the old woman wiped her tears with her sleeve, and told the story of the past that she did not want to recall.

"I was born in a scholarly family in Qingliu Town, Yongfeng Prefecture, my ancestral surname was Pei, and my grandfather named me Qingchou. Before I became sensible, the old people of my grandfather's generation were still alive, my parents' generation was safe and healthy, and the whole family lived happily. As time passed, the more I would say and know more, and the disasters that would bring to my family would follow. Actually, I was born with this ability, but I was too young to speak or remember, and when I saw that, I was scared at the time, and I forgot about it afterwards. When I was scared, I would cry a lot, and my family thought it was a normal child crying, but it was louder. When I grew up, I was able to speak, but there were still many things I didn't know and couldn't describe. So when my family listened to my nonsense, they thought I was having a nightmare, or that I had heard something I shouldn't have heard outside. For this reason, my mother would take me to the temple every month to offer incense and ask for the Bodhisattva's blessing from me. It wasn't until one day when I was five years old that I told my whole story for the first time, and my life went from bad to bad ever since. You must be wondering, what am I capable of? The old woman was silent for a long time, and her eyes were calm without tears.

The breathing of the four people in the cave was carried away by the wind, but the rest of the sound was still so clear.

The steamed bun stood motionless in front of the old woman, for fear of missing something.

"I can see through a person's eyes the bad things he will face in the future, whether he is sick because of the rain, or he may have provoked the wrong people and been killed." Yue Gu and Taro had already vaguely guessed this, but they were still shocked when they really heard it from the old woman's mouth.

"For the first time, I was able to fully and accurately describe the catastrophe I saw through the eyes of others, and the one I saw was none other than my grandfather, the man who loved me the most." The old woman was completely lost in the memory, and she stopped telling.

The passage of a mouse did not pull the old woman out of silence, but the reaction of the steamed bun to the mouse had an effect.

"It was a rainy day in the middle of summer, and the downpour blurred the sky and the earth. The family was having lunch, and my grandfather asked me to eat more vegetables, and I looked into his eyes and said yes. That's when I saw it, and I saw my grandfather and his old man being knocked down by the wood on the house, and then ...... "The old woman didn't say what happened after that, but everyone knew what she saw later."

"I was so frightened that my heart was about to jump out, and I started crying and crying, 'Grandfather'. Everyone was confused by me, and my mother was the first to react and quickly put down the dishes and chopsticks and picked me up. My grandfather didn't understand what was going on, but when he saw me crying and kept calling him, he was very distressed. He asked my mother to carry me to him, and then everyone ate, coaxing me himself. He kept patting me gently on the back and saying, 'Don't be afraid, grandfather is here.' In this way, I gradually calmed down in my grandfather's arms. It took me a long time to recover, but I still had occasional tics. 'My little girl, what's wrong with you?' Why do you cry all of a sudden? Did someone bully you today? Tell your grandfather and he will help you get justice. My grandfather looked down at me, and I couldn't see the old picture in his old eyes, but I still had palpitations. The old woman closed her eyes.
