Chapter 18: The Curse of the Gu Family
Uncle Liu didn't care about my anger at all, Yun smiled lightly, and asked rhetorically, "Think about it, how much can you remember before you and your parents had a car accident, and do you remember the scene during the car accident?"
I put down my hand in a fit of weariness...... I really don't remember, my memories before the crash were as vague as a fog, I knew it existed, but I couldn't remember what it was.
Uncle Liu waved his hand to Goudan and Wang Dajun and said, "You guys take Rui Rui out first!"
Wang Dajun nodded, picked up Xu Rui and Goudan and walked out of Uncle Liu's dormitory.
Uncle Liu sat back on the sofa, poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip, and said slowly, "Actually, you have been here, and your parents' funerals were held here...... You don't remember because when you came here, you weren't you anymore. ”
From the first day I reported to the crematorium, my familiarity with this place had convinced me that I had been here before...... I have the impression that my memories of my parents have always been blurry, including the funeral, and I don't even remember that I attended my parents' funeral, so it's no wonder I can't remember when I was here.
But I still don't understand what I mean by that I'm not me anymore.
"What do you mean?"
Uncle Liu stretched out his hand to help me up from the ground, pulled me to the sofa and sat down, and said, "Speaking of which, you have never been curious, your mother's family is huge, but no one is willing to adopt you, let you grow up in a welfare home, why?"
Maybe I forgot that my grandfather was the chairman of the Wangshi Group, and I remember that I only found out after my mother died...... The fatal car accident broke one of my legs, and I was taken straight to the orphanage when I got out of the hospital.
On my first day at the orphanage, my unmasked grandfather appeared, followed by a lawyer in a suit with black-rimmed glasses and leather shoes, holding a letter signed by my mother to disown him from the relationship, telling me that I had nothing to do with the Wangshi Group, and threatened me not to tell others about my relationship with the Wangshi Group in the future, otherwise he had a way to make me disappear from this world.
I don't know how Uncle Liu knew about the huge size of my mother's family, but I completely believe in the strength of the Wang Shi Group, and it is as important for them to kill me as it is to pinch an ant to death.
"I don't understand what you're talking about......" I shook my head innocently, pretending not to understand.
Uncle Liu looked like he knew everything, and said with a light smile, "The chairman of Wangshi Group is your grandfather!"
"No!" I decisively denied, but I think my expression had already betrayed myself, and I had to live like an orphan even though I had such a powerful relative, and it was far more sad to have such a relative than never to have been.
I don't want to admit my relationship with the Wang Shi Group, not only because of their threats, but most importantly, because I don't feel the care of my relatives in them, they ignore me, they ignore my mother, I don't care about having anything to do with them, I want to live to prove myself, I can live well without them.
Uncle Liu didn't say anything anymore, got up and walked to the bookcase and took out a book, took out a similar photo from the book, carefully brushed the surface of the photo, walked over and handed the photo to me, and said, "You don't have to hide anything from me, I was a close friend with your father when I was young, and I heard a little bit about your mother, and you Gu family passed it on from generation to generation, do you know why?"
I took the photo suspiciously, just a glance, and the face of my father in my memory was instantly clear, and I couldn't help but feel sad......
It was a slightly yellowed black-and-white photo, on which two people, one was somewhat similar to the current Uncle Liu, and the other was the father when he was young, and they were intimately smiling brightly at the camera.
When I was seven years old, my father passed away, and my memory was lost a lot with this car accident, I know too little about the Gu family, and I can't remember anything.
How sad, the only thing I remember about my parents is that they loved me very much, and I really can't remember anything about them. I also thought that if I looked at the photos, I might be able to remember, but the previous home was no longer my home, and the contents had long since been thrown into the garbage dump by the landlord.
I shook my head bitterly, "I don't know......"
"Alas", Uncle Liu sighed, took out a cigarette, lit it and took a deep breath, spit it out heavily, squinted at the smoke that swirled, and said in a heavy tone, "This is the ancestor of the Gu family in order to ensure the purity of the bloodline, to pass it on from generation to generation, if there is any excess, they will all die in the abdomen, and they will not be at the cost of the world, in exchange for the bloodline of the Gu family's children is not affected by the mother's power and exerts their greatest strength." ”
"I still don't understand......"
It's really puzzling, why did the ancestor of the Gu family suddenly get involved, what kind of bloodline did it take, and it needed to pay such a big price to continue......
Uncle Liu glanced at me deeply, as if he had seen the past through me, and said lazily, "Your Gu family has the blood of the soul crosser, and with blood as a medium, you can summon the extradition ghost and cross the soul to be reincarnated...... Others rely on cultivation, but you Gu family rely on talent, which is a relatively special existence in our industry. A long time ago, the Gu family was also considered prosperous, but one of your ancestors violated the taboo in the world, fell in love with a thousand-year-old female ghost, used forbidden art to help her borrow the corpse to return her soul, eloped with her, and had a son. In the end, he was recovered by the clansmen and sentenced to death according to the clan rules......"
At this point in the story, Uncle Liu paused for a moment, took an unhurried puff on his cigarette, and continued, " Borrowing the corpse to return the soul is a forbidden technique, it is against the way of heaven, whether it is a corpse or a soul, it is extremely yin, and the combination is born of some immortal monsters outside the six realms, plus the female ghost has a thousand years of ghost power, under the catalysis of anger and sadness, the combination of the soaring corpse qi and the strong ghost power turned out to be a zombie with spiritual intelligence, and the methods used to deal with zombies on weekdays completely failed in her, and the entire Gu family was almost wiped out by her, and the rest were just some old guys with self-preservation. ”
This is the 21st century, and if someone had told me this before, I would have given him a big roll of the eye...... But now, there are many reasons why I can't believe it.
It's about my background, and I can't wait to hear what follows, "And then?"
Uncle Liu flicked the cigarette ash and sighed, "Hey, this group of old guys finally captured the child of the female zombie and threatened her to enter the Ninefold Lock Yin Array and sealed her...... And the Gu family is also very damaged, and the younger generation has no life, except for the child left by the female zombie...... After all, it was born by a woman who borrowed the corpse to resurrect the soul, and the ancestors of the Gu family were afraid that it would affect the Gu family's bloodline, so they had a later curse, and the Gu family passed it on from generation to generation. ”
I can't imagine that our Gu family still has such an incredible history, what is the black shadow that called my brother in the white light just now......
"Just now when I was unconscious, a dark shadow called my brother ......"
Uncle Liu nodded, his expression was rare and heavy, "He is indeed your twin brother, but he has not escaped the curse of your Gu family from generation to generation, if there is any excess, they will all die in the belly, and they will not be able to live in the world." When he was seven months old, because your mother was not in good health, she had a fetal reduction operation, and he was the one who was abandoned!"
