This ghost hunter who came from afar has a great reputation in several nearby villages. He looks like he is only in his thirties, but whether it is feng shui or sickness and evil spirits, he seems to be very good at it.

However, the first time this ghost hunter saw Zheng Xiaomei, he paid special attention to the special features of this girl. He told others that this girl was extraordinary and should not be taken lightly, but he never explained why.

The result of this is naturally to make other people in the same village regard Zheng Xiaomei as a monster even more. When the people in the village saw her, they looked at her even more coldly, and even someone punched and kicked her at every turn, and she was often beaten to the point that her nose was blue and her face was swollen. However, no one will stand up for her.

She even wondered if she was really that terrifying monster.

Strange to say, and after the ghost hunter met Zheng Xiaomei, the number of visits to their village increased year by year.

It is said that the ghost hunter wandered around all year round, wandering from dozens of villages to the same place almost once a year. But from then on, the ghost hunter would come to the village for two or three months.

He seems to have a soft spot for this place, and he is naturally very welcome every time he visits. And he would ask Zheng Xiaomei about her situation every time.

Everyone in the village speculated that this ghost hunter was afraid that Zheng Xiaomei, a demon, would reveal his true nature, so he often came back here to stare at her. Of course, the people in the village also hope that the ghost hunter will get rid of this scourge as soon as possible.

Although the ghost hunter looks kind, and he doesn't beat or scold Zheng Xiaomei like others, every time the ghost hunter arrives, Yuan Xiaomei will hide. And every time the ghost hunter tried to find her, it was all in vain.

Even many times, Zheng Xiaomei hid under the bed, and the villagers smashed her bedroom door in order to help the ghost hunter find her, almost turning the physics upside down. Thanks to the fact that the bottom of the bed is very low, and Zheng Xiaomei is very thin, others can't imagine that there is really someone hidden under the bed.

In this way, the more the ghost hunter wanted to see her, the more secretive she hid. That very gentle ghost hunter has become a nightmare that Zheng Xiaomei keeps avoiding.

Because she could feel, only what she could see, the black humanoid monster on the back of the ghost catcher seemed to have the most terrifying power, and that was the real lingering nightmare.

She even noticed that the ghost hunter seemed to occasionally come to their village in disguise, not wanting to attract the attention of others, just to sneak in with Zheng Xiaomei.

As soon as Zheng Xiaomei saw her, she fled and went straight to the crowded street, shouting for help. The ghost hunter didn't seem to want to cause panic, so he could only leave in a huff.

She told others the reason for her abnormal behavior, many people thought she was just looking at her eyes and admitting her mistake, and more people thought she was crazy and unreasonable.

But she knew that she would not be mistaken, even if the faces of the people were similar, the black monster on the back of the ghost catcher was absolutely unique.

Hiding like this, finally, the ghost hunters appeared less and less, and time passed year by year.

In the blink of an eye, Zheng Xiaomei grew to the age of seventeen, which is already the age of talking about marriage in her hometown.

In the process of growing up, Zheng Xiaomei, who has been isolated by others, has suffered too many white eyes, her father's rough treatment, the contempt and ridicule of her peers, the hostility and rejection of her neighbors, and so on.

If you want to elaborate on Yuan Xiaomei's experience during this period, it is just a boring and numbing story, and only the parties concerned know the sadness.

She has no illusions about marriage, and he doesn't know what the difference between marrying someone else is in his own life. All she knew was that she could leave her rough father, who was an alcoholic, and she had a little expectation, but more than that, reluctance.

She was afraid that if she left her father, maybe the person who would care about her in the end would no longer exist, and she would become a real lonely person.

Of course, she knows that it is useless for her to think more in this regard, she has no choice at all, all she can do is accept.

As expected, perhaps because her father was happy with a meal and made an agreement with others, Yuan Xiaomei suddenly made a marriage with someone she had never met.

After the wedding in a daze, Zheng Xiaomei married an older young man surnamed Zhou from the next village. He had severe encephalitis, which left sequelae, walked with a limp, couldn't speak clearly, and never spoke about his daughter-in-law in his thirties.

If it weren't for Zheng Xiaomei who had no choice, maybe no one would have taken a fancy to him for the rest of her life.

However, at the first glance of her man, Zheng Xiaomei found that the smoke wafting from behind the man was bright cyan in color.

It was a color that she had never seen behind anyone else and didn't understand the meaning.

Finally, after living for a long time, she began to understand that cyan represents concern and warmth. The inconspicuous man in front of her treated her kindly in the most simple way, making her feel unprecedented warmth.

They have a small dilapidated house, a small piece of land, a thin ox, and they are thrifty and frugal, but these are only enough for them to live a life that no one envies. But for Yuan Xiaomei, that's the happiness she needs.

What made her even happier was that the two of them had a child, different from his father, who had never been sick since he was a child, and had a lovely face that everyone loved.

Zheng Xiaomei named the child Zhou Qing, and every time her man asked the meaning of the name, Zheng Xiaomei smiled and said nothing.

That's all for these happy memories. Maybe people who see this place will wonder, I only see Aunt Zheng's sad and fearful memories, why can I see a happy story in the middle?

Because later this change in the outcome will make all the happiness in the past become the source of pain after all.

And all this came from the time Zhou Qing was ten years old.

Zhou Qing, who has begun to be sensible, can do some housework and knows a lot of words, still can't change his playfulness, and runs around in the east and west of the village all day long. He often lost track of the time and remembered to be home when it was completely dark.

It was another sunny evening, and Zheng Xiaomei searched around the village for Zhou Qing's whereabouts. She shouted her son's name as she looked around.

Finally, at the entrance of the village, she saw a figure similar to her son, as if a man with a bag was talking to Zhou Qing.

"Little one, you seem to be very unusual!"

"Really? I think grandpa is very different from others, but I can't tell why! This is exactly Zhou Qing's voice.

"Qing, it's time to go home for dinner!" As soon as Zheng Xiaomei shouted, she immediately recognized the true face of such a tall man.

To be precise, Zheng Xiaomei recognized the black guy on the man's back.

And Zheng Xiaomei's figure has already gained a lot over the years, and the man doesn't seem to recognize Zheng Xiaomei.

"Come home with me!" Zheng Xiaomei immediately grabbed Zhou Qing's hand and immediately turned her head to leave.

And this appearance of running away from the desert seemed to make the tall man think of something: "It's you, I didn't expect to see you here for more than ten years!" ”
