Chapter 5: The Great Black Coffin
"Dangerous?" I was stunned, "What do you mean?" ”
"Your grandfather was originally destined to have no children," said my mother, "He is a famous feng shui master, proficient in geography, and also good at Maoshan art." When he was young, he spared no effort to do things, and he didn't leave himself a way back. When he was in his thirties, he knew that there was not much life left, so in order to continue his life, he gave birth to me. ”
I thought for a while, "No, Mom, since my grandfather is destined to have no children, how did he give birth to you?" ”
My mother smiled, "His life is indeed a life without a queen." However, he is proficient in yin and yang techniques, so he naturally has a way. In order to continue his life, he used a spell to capture a fairy in the heavenly realm and make her his daughter, so that his confidante was pregnant, just like when I caught you. ”
"So, you've been arrested too," I nodded, "so that grandpa can continue his life?" ”
"With God as a son, you can continue your life", my mother said lightly, "but this child is not easy to live in, I was kicked out of the house by your grandfather at the age of sixteen, and asked me to go to Nanjing to find a northerner surnamed Wu." He said that it was my future husband, my destiny, on the edge of a water dragon in the north. ”
Saying that, she glanced at me, "He also told me that I can only get married at the age of sixteen, and I can only get married at the age of seventeen, and I can use the skills he taught me to settle down and start a business, but before the age of twenty-one, I must give birth to a noble son." Twenty-one years old is my calamity, if I can't give birth to a noble son with a background, heaven will take me. ”
"Hmm!" I listened intently.
She looked at me and smiled proudly, "I arrived in Nanjing and met your father, his surname is Wu, his hometown is by the canal, the key is that his character is very good, and his family is still poor." I thought it was all right, so I came to your house with him. Later, at the age of twenty-one, I finally gave birth to you. ”
I seemed to understand, "No wonder you were crazy when you were pregnant with me, it turns out that heaven is ready to take you!" ”
"If I don't have the fifth master in my belly, but an ordinary child", she said, "Not only will I not be able to live, but the child will not be able to be saved." ”
I scratched the back of my head.
"When I gave birth to you, my life will be renewed, and by the light of your fifth master, I will be able to prolong my life for sixty years," my mother said, "but your grandfather said that if you take God as your son, you must drive the child out of the house at the age of fifteen or sixteen, and let him stand on his own." You are different from me, your calamity is at the age of nineteen, that is to say, at the age of nineteen, you have to give birth to a noble son by your own ability, otherwise, Donghai will come to collect you. ”
"Huh?" I was confused, "Sheng...... Having a son? Mom, I even have a girlfriend, where can I give birth to a son? Besides, I'm only sixteen, and you really can't bear to kick me out of the house? I just got into high school, and I haven't signed up yet! ”
My mother didn't speak for a long time, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mom, you speak!" I'm in a bit of a hurry.
My mother looked at me, "I calculated that you would wake up this year, and your memories and supernatural powers would also be restored, but ...... Before you were reincarnated, your brother in black lit a golden light in the center of your eyebrows, I didn't know what that light meant before, but now look...... I seem to understand something. ”
"I don't understand!" I say.
"He's your brother," she said, "and that golden light is probably a seal, and he seals your primordial spirit, so that even if you wake up, you won't be able to recover your memories and supernatural powers." In this way, even if you are born, if you can't renew your life at the age of nineteen, then Donghai can take you back. ”
"What then?" I was really a little anxious, "It's all my grandfather's fault, if he doesn't arrest you, you won't arrest me, who should I arrest now?" Mom, I'm only sixteen, I don't want to be kicked out by you, I still have to go to school! ”
"I don't have an idea about this for a while," she said, looking at me, "but son, you have to be mentally prepared." Although you didn't wake up completely, after all, you started to wake up, and if you woke up, your mother can't treat you as a son. You are the fifth master of the Dragon King family of the East China Sea, my mother can't protect you in her arms for a lifetime, even if I hide you, the gods and Buddhas who hide in the world will find you. ”
"So what should I do?" I looked at her, "You don't treat me as a son, you're also my mother!" ”
Mom smiled calmly, "Let me think about it again, don't worry, there is always a way." ”
I stopped talking, because I didn't know what to say, but I seemed to have been mentally prepared for all this, and although I was a little anxious, I didn't panic at all.
Could it be that in the depths of my soul, that fifth master really woke up?
"What do you want?" When my mother saw that I didn't speak, she was a little worried.
"Mom, what happens if I don't stand on my own?" I asked.
"If you don't stand on your own, it doesn't matter to me," my mother stared at me, "but...... Your grandparents, your father, they ......"
"I see! Don't talk about it", I interrupted my mother's words, lowered my head and pondered for a long time, gritting my teeth, "Mom, I'll go!" If you can survive, so can I! ”
Mom was silent for a while, then smiled calmly, "Let me think of another way...... Wu Ye, you can't let your grandparents know about this, and don't tell your father, understand? ”
I didn't speak, but nodded silently.
In the evening, my grandfather came back and brought me roast chicken from the neighboring village. This roast chicken is very delicious, I have loved it since I was a child, but that time, I didn't taste it.
"Wu Ye, what's wrong? Don't have an appetite? "Grandpa asked me.
I came back to my senses and squeezed out a smile, "No, I ...... I ate too much dim sum in the afternoon, sir, this chicken is delicious! ”
"The kid didn't know what was going on in the afternoon, he had a big appetite and ate more than three pounds of snacks," said the grandmother.
Grandpa was relieved, "If you eat too much sweet, you won't have an appetite for meat if you eat it again." ”
Mom didn't say a word, she ate silently.
Dad glanced at Mom, stopped talking, looked at my grandparents, and finally held back.
After eating, I rested early.
Not long after I lay down, I heard someone outside calling me, "Wu Ye...... Wu Ye...... Come ......"
I sat up in a daze, rubbed my eyes, and the sound outside was gone.
Just as he was about to lie down, the voice came again, "Wu Ye, come on...... It's waiting for you...... Come on......"
I sat up again, got dressed, and opened the door to the courtyard.
The gate of the courtyard has been bolted.
I was a little confused, and my body was out of control, so I walked to the courtyard wall, jumped slightly, grabbed the wall with agility, and flipped outside.
There was no one outside, the streets of the village under the moonlight, empty, nothing.
Wu Ye ...... Come on...... Hurry up......" The voice came from a distance, much clearer than before.
I walked in the direction of the sound.
Soon, I walked out of the village.
I came to the embankment, walked straight through a mass of graves, and walked straight forward.
At this time, there were figures around, many, many figures, as if they were rushing to a market. But they seemed to be afraid of me, and wherever I went, a large area spread out, and when I had gone, they gathered again.
I saw an old man in black and a white beard, and an old lady in black clothes, who were leading a young woman in yellow and looking at me from afar.
As I passed near them, I glanced at them with a strange smile on my lips. I could feel the light in my eyes.
The young woman trembled with fright and quickly hid behind the old lady in black.
The old man threw his hand at me, "Fifth master......"
I ignored it and continued on my way, up the embankment, to the old ferry.
I saw a wooden boat parked in the canal, tall and ornate wooden boat. A handsome man wearing a crown and black silk clothes was waving at me, "Wu Ye, we are waiting for you to drink...... It's waiting for you...... Come ......"
My heart was hot, and I walked slowly towards him.
At this moment, my mother broke off behind me, "Wu Ye! ”
I woke up suddenly, looked at the front, and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
On the riverside of the old ferry, where there are wooden boats, there is only a coffin, a large black coffin.
I sat down on the ground in fright and stepped back.
My mom walked up to me in a few steps, pinched her fingers and pressed my right shoulder, muttered a few words silently, and pressed hard. My body trembled, and I let out a long breath, and my heart was a little calmer.
"Wu Ye! Wu Ye! Mom pressed my shoulders and looked at me anxiously, "Wake up! ”
I came back to my senses and quickly hugged my mother, "Mom! Riverside...... There are coffins! ”
My mom glanced back at the coffin and gently comforted me, "It's okay, mom is here, don't be afraid!" Saying that, she scolded loudly, "I'll go to your grandmother's legs, where did the fox spirit yellow skin come from, dare to beat my son's idea!" Listen to me, get out of the way for me thirty miles before dawn! After dawn, let me see you here, my aunt and grandmother have destroyed you all! ”
As soon as the words fell, the coffin clicked and split in half.
I hugged my mother so tightly that I couldn't say a word.
