18. Swap bodies
Gu Xuanwu stood in front of me and said in a deep voice: "Paper people can't enter the water, they can't touch the fire. ”
He told me that I should keep vigil for my old body every day from now on, and he asked me if I wanted to.
I nodded and agreed.
Gu Xuanwu lifted the curtain behind him, but behind the red cloth was a black coffin, and he pointed to the coffin and asked me to lie down.
Gu Xuanwu asked me again, I nodded, but there was a faint worry in my heart, I asked if he could change it back, Gu Xuanwu smiled and nodded, but his eyes were a little detached.
I was lying in the coffin, I closed my eyes suddenly, Gu Xuanwu smiled, and said that there was no need to look like I was going to die.
With a tinkle in his ears, Gu Xuanwu lit a lotus lamp above the coffin, chanting a mantra in his mouth, he said that dust to dust, soil to earth, and his body was just a boarding ......
I didn't hear the words after that, the coffin lid was slowly closed, and I seemed to have entered another dimension, I couldn't hear or see what Gu Xuanwu was doing, and there seemed to be a huge suction force underneath.
In a trance, there seemed to be something in my ears, and I opened my eyes suddenly, only to find that I was not in that cramped coffin.
I frowned, wearing a light blue skirt, and a butterfly in front of me was particularly obvious, someone said to me, from today onwards, you are Gu Xiaolou.
I was stunned, the dazzling sunlight shone over, I was faintly uncomfortable, Gu Xuanwu, who was standing against the light, was completely amazed in his eyes, and I could see his attachment in his eyes.
Like a doll from his hand, he beckoned.
Gu Xuanwu handed me a mirror, I frowned, and looked at myself in the mirror, no, it was Gu Xiaolou.
The skin is fair, the eyes are like water, and the facial features are more profound than before.
Men are really visual animals, and I am a little uncomfortable with being so eye-catching, but Gu Xuanwu seems to be very satisfied.
He pointed to the brazier behind me, and said that if the brazier fell and the sparks splashed, then my body would be burned.
"If you burn it, you can't be reborn, and Master Zu won't let you come back to life......"
As soon as Gu Xuanwu's words fell, I jumped over, and the brazier was there, and I breathed a sigh of relief.
I glanced at Gu Xuanwu, he was obviously relieved, and said that since the ancestor should be reborn with me, he can live a good life in the future.
I don't know why, my heart is empty, and there is a trace of fear in my heart in front of this unfamiliar face.
I walked to the front yard, still a little nervous, I am not used to this body, Gu Xuanwu said that he wants me to rest assured, even if he appears in front of those people in Yangjia Village now, they will not recognize it.
"They're a little jealous of me." Gu Xuanwu didn't explain anything, I was surprised, I didn't know where I came from, wouldn't they be confused?
Gu Xuanwu shook his head and said that I will go, as long as I say that it is Mr. Gu's child.
I frowned, and as soon as I reached the door, I was met by a familiar figure, and that old wrinkled face appeared in front of me.
I was startled and took a step back, it was the Yang family's grandmother!
She just looked at me in surprise, but didn't say anything, my hands were shaking in fright, which was a natural reaction.
But when I think about it, I'm Gu Xiaolou now, so there's nothing to be afraid of.
"The newcomer, why is it a little timid." Yang Jiama walked in and talked to Gu Xuanwu, she was carrying a basket covered with a cloth, saying that she had brought good things.
