Xiu'er's predecessors loved my grandfather Gu Xiansheng deeply, but my grandfather couldn't help himself for many reasons and abandoned Xiu'er's predecessors. In order to wait for her lover, Xiu'er's predecessor was taken advantage of by Qingyue Taoist priest and became pregnant with a child. When she was about to give birth, Xiu'er's predecessor actually killed the child of herself and Qingyue Daoist......

More than ten years later, her apprentice was also pregnant, and this time, Xiu'er's predecessors were even more ruthless and killed the apprentice's lover first!

I don't know why, when I heard this story, my first feeling was not the cruelty of Xiu'er's predecessors, but the loyalty of this master and apprentice to love. This relationship is more important to them than anything else.

"When I see my lover's head, my heart is broken......" the old woman said more and more slowly, and her voice became lower and lower, as if she was very reluctant to recall that moment that day: "But what happened next made me even more painful." While I wasn't looking, Master used a soul trick on me, and then poured me a bowl of decoction. When I woke up, my stomach was deflated, my lower body hurt, I turned my head to look, and I saw that my child, the child, who was dead, was less than seven months old, and was lying quietly beside me, motionless......"

Oh, my God! Hearing this, I changed my opinion in an instant, Xiu'er senior...... Of course, maybe she really has a hard time.

I asked softly, "Grandma, is it because of your kung fu practice that you are not allowed to get pregnant and have children?" ”

The old woman raised her motherly eyes and looked at me: "Once we have a child, within ten years, our strength will be completely dissipated, and within twenty years, our body functions will be completely degraded until we die. But, I'd rather have my children! From that day on, I regarded Master as an enemy, and on the day my body recovered, we had the first fight, and I was defeated, and Master left me. In the decades that followed, I kept looking for Master, and every time I saw her, I would fight without saying a word, but I never won. Until eight years ago, I hadn't found Master for more than ten years, so I simply came back here, because I knew that as long as Master was still alive, one day she would return to Qingyue Temple......"

"Do you hate her?" I asked, glancing at the baby on the old woman's lap.

"Hate, hate to the bone." The old woman replied without hesitation: "If one day, the master, who is like a biological mother, kills his lover and child with his own hands, you will never understand the maddening feeling. After I buried my child, its residual consciousness suddenly appeared and stayed with me all the time, of course, only people like you Gu family can see it. ”

Yes, the seven-month-old child, before the beautiful life began, was strangled in the mother's belly, this resentment could have made the baby a ghostly curse, but I didn't expect the child to be so kind-hearted, turned this resentment into an unrelenting affection for his mother, and stayed with his mother.

It doesn't matter whether Xiu'er's predecessor is right or wrong in this matter, and this result is not what she wants.

"Senior Xiu'er, where will you go?" I still have to find Xiu'er's predecessor after all.

"Master is also from Ximiao." The old woman said: "But because her family left Ximiao Miao Village several generations ago, I don't know about their family's situation. Perhaps, she will go back to Ximiao, maybe, go to your grandfather. ”

"My grandfather died more than twenty years ago......" I muttered.

"Gu Xiansheng is dead?! How can it be?! When the old woman heard that my grandfather had passed away more than twenty years ago, an incredible look appeared on her face: "With Gu Xiansheng's ability, it is no problem to live to be one hundred and fifty years old, how can he die?" ”

I shook my head: "My second uncle and my father both told me that my grandfather died of illness. And because I wasn't at home at the time, I didn't stay with my grandfather when he left. ”

"Huh!" The old woman laughed dryly: "I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it...... After your grandfather married a wife and had children, Master never went to look for him again, but unexpectedly, he should leave first! ”

I suddenly remembered a question: not long ago in Bears Ears Mountain, Qingyue Taoist only asked my grandmother Mei Xian if she was alive, but did not ask me where my grandfather Gu Xiansheng is now, it stands to reason that he said that he had a one-sided relationship with my grandfather, and he was able to keep his promise with his grandfather for decades, and his relationship with his grandfather should be good, why didn't he ask? Or did he already know that his grandfather had died?

Originally, my father's death made me very puzzled, but now my grandfather's death has become a mystery, and I don't know how many secrets the second uncle has not told me.

"If I want to find Xiu'er's seniors, where should I go?" I asked.

The old woman sighed lightly: "I don't know, I can't find her, how can you find her." Actually, come to think of it, Master is no better than me, and my lover has been dead for decades and has adapted to this kind of life. And Master, obviously the beloved is still alive, but I can only watch him get married and have children and can't see each other, isn't it even more pitiful than me......"

"So, do you still hate her?" I asked with a wry smile.

"Hate! Why not hate! My love, my child, two lives, why don't I hate! The old woman suddenly became angry as she spoke, and walked out tremblingly on crutches, not knowing where she went.

I sat alone in the room with mixed feelings. I really didn't expect that there was such a tragic story behind my grandfather.

In the afternoon, I slept on the table for a while, and since the old woman said that my leg would be fine tomorrow, I might as well stay for one night and wait until tomorrow when it was better.

I don't know what time it is, I was woken up by a sound of mobile phone vibration, squinted my eyes and glanced at the phone, it was Chu Ying, and hurriedly picked it up: "Girl, there won't be anything wrong with you over there, right?" ”

"Hmph, can't I call you if there's no situation?" Chu Ying's playful voice came: "Where are you?" ”

"Me? I'm in Jiangxi, playing! I smiled and rubbed my eyes: "Off work?" ”

"Hmm." Chu Ying seemed to have walked out of the shadows that Ah Ye had left: "I just got off work, I want to ask where you are." There's nothing going on here lately, and there are no more dead people in Zhonghu, and I'm still thinking, are those people who drowned in Zhonghu the ghosts of that old turtle? ”

I was stunned, this girl could really imagine: "How is it possible, the old turtle is a good person, how can he kill people!" By the way, the one named Zhang Wuji is the one who sells masks, have you followed up? ”

"I've been going to the moat every night lately, but it's strange that this man hasn't been seen since you saw him that day." Chu Ying paused and asked in a low voice, "Brother Rui, did you say you really saw the hell?" Didn't you always see ghosts when you were a kid? ”

"I can't." I recalled that when I saw Zhang Wuji selling masks that day, I didn't feel a chill in the back of my head, which shows that Zhang Wuji is a real person: "It won't be a ghost or something, I promise." ”

As soon as I finished speaking, I heard footsteps outside the door, and hurriedly said, "Girl, I still have something to do here, so I'll hang up first, and we'll talk about it when I go back in two days." ”

Hanging up the phone, I instinctively wanted to stand up, but I forgot that my lower leg was broken, and I was shocked when I really stood up, and hurriedly sat down again, looking at the old woman who pushed the door in: "That, grandma, I actually stood up just now?!" ”

"The instructions are almost ready." The old woman glanced at me, put away the dishes on the table, and went out to cook.

Dinner was rice porridge with wild vegetables, and the farmhouse-like dinner was still fragrant, which made my mouth water.

After dinner, I chatted with the old woman for a while, and then slept on the haystack on the side.

I don't know how long it took, but I suddenly woke up from my sleep. I opened my eyes, looked at the dark room, listened to the whirring wind outside, and frowned: What's going on? I didn't dream either, why did I wake up suddenly?

"Uh-huh—"

Suddenly, a familiar but heart-pounding voice sounded in the darkness, I turned my head to look, and saw the old woman's bed, the white baby, looking at me with a pair of dripping eyes!

This kid ...... Although I couldn't see the baby clearly in the dark, I could see that the baby was grinning at me, and this smile was different from the blood baby, it was an innocent smile like a normal baby.

It's pathetic enough, I think.

"Hum-" The mobile phone suddenly vibrate, it was particularly abrupt in the silent night, I was startled, and hurriedly took it out to take a look, it was Su Xiao calling!
