Chapter 1: Grandma is gone

Next Chapter

For as long as I can remember, I have lived alone in a dilapidated house by the old grave outside the village. Behind the old grave is an old forest, and up the old forest is the back mountain, where there is a forbidden place in the village, and no one dares to go.

When I was a child, my grandmother would come back every week to bring me some food and drink, teach me to do laundry and cook, and every time she would tell me never to leave the old grave, let alone enter the village!

I always remembered my grandmother's words, because once I secretly went back to the village, but as soon as I was halfway there, I was discovered by the villagers, who beat me up and threw me back to the old grave.

That time, I lay in bed for a whole week, and if my grandmother hadn't come early, I was afraid that I would have died.

I once asked my grandmother, why do I want to live here alone?

My grandmother said that in the year when my mother was pregnant with me, there was a great drought, and the grain in the fields could not grow, and many people and livestock died of thirst and starvation, until an old fairy came to the village and told the people in the village that I was doing the trouble.

He said that I was reincarnated by a resentful spirit burned to death by the heavenly fire, and that I would absorb the surrounding essence for my own growth, and that only by enclosing me and waiting for me to fend for myself could I keep the village safe.

Everyone in the Tianhuo village he said knew that just a year before I was born, the back mountain was struck by lightning, causing a mountain fire, which burned for three days and three nights before it was extinguished, and countless animals were killed and injured in the mountain.

But the fire only burned in the back mountain, and it was broken when it reached the edge of the old forest.

The old fairy said that it was because the old forest was connected to the old tomb, and the yin qi was extremely heavy, and the heavenly fire that landed was stained with earth, and the power was not enough, so it couldn't get close.

And the place where the old grave and the old forest meet, is a good place to encircle me. So I asked my dad to build a house there, and the house could only be made of wood, not bricks, and only of locust wood.

My mother gave birth to me in this house, and I heard that after I was born, it rained heavily in the village. But the heavy rain blocked the way, the midwife couldn't come, my mother died in childbirth when she gave birth to me, and my father also fell off the cliff a week after I was born, and there were no bones.

When I was three years old, my grandmother was taken home by my uncle, who came to bring me something every week.

But when I was 10 years old, my grandmother brought me food once and never came back.

I can't wait for my grandmother, I'm starving, I want to eat, and I want to find my grandmother. As soon as I arrived outside the village, I was stopped by a group of villagers who had just finished doing farm work, and they told me that my grandmother was sick and died, and told me to leave.

I wanted to ask for something to eat, but their eyes seemed to eat me, and one by one with a hoe held a hoe, and some with a sickle held a sickle, and I could only leave in a huff.

It was nearly dusk, and it began to drizzle, and when I was about to arrive at the door, I saw my grandmother cooking for me, and I was so happy that I hurriedly ran over: "Grandma, you are finally here, they say you are dead, woo woo." ”

I couldn't help crying as I spoke, and my grandmother smiled and said, "Boy, why are you crying, there is something delicious on the table, go eat something, make a good meal and call you." ”

As soon as I heard that there was something delicious, I hurriedly ran to see it, and saw a table of fruits, pastries, roast chicken, pig's head, and even a glass of rice wine.

I can't wait to eat it, I've never eaten anything so good.

But when I was full, I didn't see my grandmother call me to eat, so I thought it was strange, so I went to the kitchen, but there was a cold pot and a cold stove in the kitchen, where was my grandmother?

I was looking for my grandmother in front of the house and behind the house, and it was so dark that it seemed to be pressed down, and the thunder was rolling, and I saw my grandmother standing not far away from the window and smiling and waving at me, and I wanted to rush to find her, but when I got to her, my grandmother was gone.

I wanted to look for it again, but the rain was pouring down and I had to go back to the house to take shelter.

As soon as I entered the room, a shrill voice sounded in my ears, sounding like two wires rubbing together.

"Hey, hey, good boy, this tribute has a good taste, and the fairy is very satisfied."

I was startled, I had never heard such a voice, I looked around for who was talking, but I didn't find anyone after watching it for a long time, and at this moment, the voice floated again: "The fairy is gone, boy, I will give you something to be enlightened by you, be careful of what you want to come." ”
