Chapter Ninety-Nine: Night Visit

I walked to the door, and my brother shouted outside, "Xiao Yuan, how did you get in with the door locked?"

I said, "I came in before the door was locked." ”

My brother asked curiously, "Why did you lock the door at home, and who locked it?"

I handed the key through the crack in the door and said, "It's the master's lock." ”

My brother opened the door, looked at me and said, "Are you asleep at home?"

I snorted with an "um".

My brother went straight to the back room.

I took the opportunity to walk out the door.

As soon as I walked two steps, I heard my brother's roar in the house: "Xiao Yuan, you come in for me, what are you going to do with this rummaging cabinet." Come in and pack up for me!"

I quickened my pace and ran down the alley.

I ran to the western slope in one go, and the sun was only one pole away from the top of Mt. Konishi.

I found a big rock, sat on the grass with my back against it, took out the letter in the blood-red sunset, and continued to read.

For the sake of her young son, the princess chose to forget about the king and the officials and people of the Drought Tribe, who were waiting for her to return, and devoted herself to raising her son to adulthood.

Later, the son grew up, started a family, and gave birth to a grandson for the princess.

Although the princess worked hard for half her life, she got the harmony and beauty of the family.

At this point, you should already get the idea.

That's right, the princess of the Drought Tribes is your grandmother, her adoptive mother is your grandmother, the baby boy he gave birth to is your father, and the grandson born to the princess when the baby boy grows up is you.

As for the boy who led the princess back to the land of the dry fish, married the princess, and was later imprisoned and sentenced to death, and finally survived, it was me.

This may seem unheard of to you, and you won't be able to accept it for a while, but it's not a fictional story, it's a real thing that happened to me, to your grandmother, and even to your dad and you.

If you still doubt, what I'm going to talk about next is something you have personally experienced. - What I will talk about later, there may be some characters, some backgrounds that you don't know, you can ask Xiao Yuan.

Half a year ago, late one night, I was about to go to bed when there was a knock at the door, and then I heard a series of light footsteps outside, from the gate to the entrance of the hall.

As the door slammed, a droughtman entered my room.

When I looked at it, it turned out to be the prime minister of the Drought Tribe.

I was an old friend of Ran Xiang Tho, and when she saw me, she looked dejected and said, 'Son-in-law, you have to help me.' ’

I hurriedly asked her what was going on.

Ran Xiang said, 'The mother is no longer good, and the limit is within a few days.' ’

The monarch mother is the name of the drought king of the drought tribe, and the monarch mother mentioned by Burning Tho is your grandmother's biological mother.

Back then, when I was in the dry land with your grandmother, my mother took good care of the two of us, and personally organized the wedding for me and your grandmother, and gave us the beloved courtyard to make a new house. I have always been grateful to her in my heart and revered her.

As soon as I heard Ran Xiang Tho say that the monarch's mother was no good, my heart was also sour.

I knew what she was here for and asked, 'You're here for Yuhua, right?'

Yuhua is your grandmother's name.

Ran Xiang Tho nodded.

After a moment of silence, Ran Xiang said, "Just now I went to the first lord and asked for permission to return to the princess to inherit the throne of the princess, but the first lord refused in one bite. also said that the princess no longer recognized her mother, and she couldn't be the master. ’

The first adult is your grandmother.

I said, 'The first one's feud with the Drought Devil is too deep for her to admit to you in person, but I don't think she's determined to stop it.' You still have to ask Yuhua what he means, the key determining factor is Yuhua. ’

Ran Sheng Tho nodded and said, "You have a point. Although the princess has the blood of the Wa royal family, she is also a real drought man, so her affairs do not necessarily have to be approved by the first adult. I'm going to find her. ’

I said, 'Now that it's over, you should stay with me for the night, and you'll talk to Yuhua tomorrow.' ’

Ran Xiang said anxiously: "Now that the monarch's mother is dying, I don't know how long it will last, I can't afford to wait." ’

After saying goodbye, I left.

That night, it was the night of the fire in the house. The youkai you see glowing blue and looking like a skinned sheep is none other than Burning Tho.

Because the blue firecoat and scorched limbs are the main physical characteristics of the Dryman. Although your grandmother is also a Drought Fisher, and although you and your father also have Drought Fish blood, because the Drought Fish royal family has intermarried with the Wa royal family for generations, their appearance is no different from that of my Wa royal family.

According to what Ran Tho later said, that night, she performed the art of stealth, walked all the way to your door, and found that the door was closed.

She performed another wall maneuver and walked through the wall into the courtyard.

Ran Tho walked up to your grandmother's door and knocked on it.

After your grandmother opened the door, the moment Ran Xiang was about to enter the door, the time limit of the invisibility technique passed, and she suddenly appeared, just in time to be seen by you who had just walked out of the door of the North Room.

Hearing that you were approaching your grandmother's room, Ran Xiang wanted to invite you into the house to meet her, for she had never seen the great-grandson of the monarch, let alone the old monarch herself. She wanted to go back and tell the old gentleman what you looked like after she met, and let the old gentleman have a comfort before he died.

Your grandmother was afraid of scaring you and stopped Ran Tho.

Both of you hold your breath as you peek in through the crack in the door, to convince you that your grandma is asleep, that there's nothing in the house, and that what just happened is just your hallucination.

But then something unexpected happened, and there was a fire outside.

Your grandmother was about to go out and call for someone to put out the fire, but she was grabbed by Ran Tho and said, 'Princess, this is a great opportunity. ’

Your grandmother asked, 'What is the perfect opportunity?'

Ran Shang Tho said, "This time, I have been ordered by the monarch's mother to invite you to Mount Eighty-One." Just in time for the chaos of the fire to quietly disappear and make people think that you have burned to death in the fire. If you suddenly disappear in normal times, it will arouse the suspicion of the neighbors, and maybe even alarm the public family, and the lives of the prince and the imperial grandson will be affected. ’

Your grandmother said, 'Didn't I say so many times that I won't go back.'" ’

Ran Shang Tho said, 'You didn't go back to the land of the drought because you wanted to raise your son.' Now Childe has become an adult, and Misun has grown to a teenager. There should be nothing more for you to worry about. ’

Your grandmother was silent and thought for a long time.

By then, the fire had spread to the room they were in.

Seeing that your grandmother was still hesitating, she knelt at her feet and begged, 'Princess, now your mother is seriously ill and dying. You are the only daughter of the monarch's mother, if you really refuse to return to the Drought Clan, once the monarch mother has a case, my Drought Tribes will fall into a masterless situation, and then the clan will be in chaos. For the sake of billions of dawns, please come with me. ’

When your grandmother heard that your mother was critically ill, she was so anxious that tears came down her eyes. She said to Ran Xiang Tho, 'Okay, I'll go with you, Jun's mother is critically ill, I should go and see her.' But now how do we get out. ’

As you speak, your parents are already shouting in the yard to put out the fire.

Ran Xiang said: "This is not difficult, you are also a dry man's body, born with the art of stealth, as long as you follow me to recite the invisibility trick, we will all become invisible bodies, no one can see them." ’

After saying that, I recited the invisibility trick again, and your grandmother also recited it, and the two of them instantly became transparent people.

That's when your dad pushed open the door and shouted, 'Mom, Mom, get up, there's a fire outside.' ’

Your dad rushed into the house and saw that it was empty, and he was stunned in front of the bed.

There was a knock on the door from a neighbor who had come to put out the fire, and your dad rushed out of the house to open the door again.

Ranshang Tho, who was sticking to the wall, led your grandmother out the door.

When you came to the courtyard wall, Ran Xiang taught your grandmother to recite the wall trick, and the two walked out against the courtyard wall.

Then they came to my house.

Your grandmother cried and said to me, 'My mother is very sick, and I have to go and see her anyway.' She gave birth to me in vain, not only did she not get my help, but she also suffered a lot of pain and suffering because of me all her life. When I go, I will come back in more than half a year, and at least in a month. There is a fire in the house tonight, and you have to go and see if there is any damage, and most importantly, to see if anyone is hurt. You don't have to hide from Shiwa all the time, I know he knows it, but he has always been shallow, and it is impossible to take the initiative to get close to you, but you have to take the initiative to get close to them. ’

Listening to your grandmother say that more than half a year, less than a month will come back, Ran Xiang was so anxious to scratch her ears and cheeks.

As soon as your grandmother finished speaking, she immediately opened her mouth to speak.

I waved my hand at her and motioned for her not to speak.

I said, 'Yuhua, since you know the kindness of your mother, you should think about how to repay it.' ’

Your grandmother said, 'But I, who am a hundred miles away and separated by two worlds, can do nothing even if I want to do my filial piety.' ’

I said, 'Isn't this just the right moment?' ’

When your grandmother heard this, she wiped her tears and asked, 'What chance?'

I said, 'Think about it, what is the greatest thought in the heart of the Mother right now?'

Your grandmother shook her head.

I said, 'It is a question of succession to the throne of the king's mother.' ’

Your grandmother lowered her head and stopped talking.

After a long time, she raised her head to look at Ran Xiang Tho, looked at me again, and said in a serious voice, "Buddha, you are right. Since Shiwa was born, I have completely changed as a person, focusing on my son, daughter-in-law, and grandson, tying myself to the family I have worked so hard to build. But I have forgotten where I came from, I have forgotten my responsibility, and I have forgotten what I should repay. ’

After your grandmother finished speaking, she took Ran Xiang Tho's hand and said, "Master Tho, I have decided, I will go with you this time, and I will not come back." I will hold up the heavens of the drought for the king's mother. Let's go. ’

As they were about to go out, I said, 'I will go with you, and I am also the son-in-law of the monarch's mother, so there is no reason why I should not go to the hospital.' ’

Your grandmother turned around and said, 'You'd better see how the house is going tomorrow.' Tho-sama and I went first. ’

After saying that, he walked straight away. ”
