Divine Eye Female Taoist

Chapter 10 Sleepover
After my grandma returned to normal, her attitude towards me has changed a lot. I am now her only relative in this world, and of course there is also a younger brother who does not know whether to live or die.

For the sake of grandma's safety, I discussed with grandma and decided to let grandma continue to pretend to be crazy, while I went to find my brother who had never met.

Before leaving, my grandma bid me farewell with tears in my eyes. I left part of the money I got from those four people to grandma, and some to Sanpang, asking him to take good care of grandma for me.

San Pang vaguely remembered that the Taoist priest had a big black mole on his face and six fingers on his left hand, walking south.

At that time, San Pang was still young, and he didn't remember some details clearly.

Following Sanpang's guidance, I left the village and headed south.

Eating scallion pancakes made by my grandma on the road, and full of homeless refugees along the way, I thought: What is wrong with this society now?
"Boom!"

The sky changes as it says, the sky was clear just now, but now it is covered with dark clouds, lightning and thunder, it seems that it will rain when it says rain.

"No, you have to find a place to shelter from the rain quickly."

Looking at this uninhabited place, if it is rained to the point of drowning, I quicken my pace and prepare to find a place to shelter from the rain.

After running for a long time, I finally saw a thatched hut surrounded by walls made of branches.

Out of politeness, I called out loudly, "Is anyone there?"

An old man's voice came from the room: "Who is it?"

Immediately afterwards, an old lady came out from the inside. This old lady was older than my grandmother. The old lady was leaning on crutches, and her waist was so bent that she couldn't straighten up.

She stopped at the door of the thatched cottage and asked, "It's a girl! What do you want?"

At this time, my whole body was soaked by the rain, and I kept sneezing.

"Grandma, I'm a traveler. It's raining too much and it's inconvenient to walk. I want to stay with you for one night."

The old lady was also warm-hearted, and said with a smile: "Come in!"

I quickly thanked the old lady: "Thank you, grandma."

"It's okay! My son is not at home tonight, so you can rest in my room!" The old lady was kind and kind.

"What about you?"

The old lady found some old clothes for me and asked me to change them in case I caught a cold.

"I'll just rest in my son's room."

Hearing what the old lady said, I didn't refuse. I was exhausted after a day of running around.

When I came to the old lady's room, I found that the old lady had arranged it very regularly.

Lie on the bed and stretched: "It's comfortable! It's better to lie on the bed!"

After a tiring day, I soon fell asleep. In the dream, I met my family's old black and the old beggar, and they were all smiling at me.

"Clang! Clang! Clang!"

There was an impatient knock on the door: "Mother, open the door quickly, I'm back!"

When the old lady heard the voice of her son, she slowly got up from the bed.

"Didn't you say that you will stay at Chen Dashan's house tonight and you won't be able to come back?"

The man drank a bowl of water "gudong, gudong" and said with a heavy expression, "Mother, something happened!"

The old lady thought that her son had caused some trouble outside, so she slapped the man with a cane and said, "What trouble did you cause again?"

The man got anxious, knocked the bowl on the table, and said, "I didn't cause any trouble! I mean something strange happened to Chen Dashan's family."

The old lady helped her son tidy up his clothes while serving meals.Asked: "Are there still few strange things in these years?"

The man was like a frightened rabbit. The thunder outside made him tremble, and the chopsticks in his hand were scared away.

Seeing that something was wrong with her son, the old lady hurriedly asked, "Son, what's the matter?"

The man suddenly raised his head and looked ahead, his eyes were bloodshot, and the corner of his mouth smiled strangely: "Red pink, moistened by blood; pink, nourished by blood..."

The man kept repeating these words. When the old lady shook the man, the man's expression was dull immediately, and he slowly turned his head to look at the old lady.

He said gloomyly: "I - want - kill - you!"

The old lady was startled and cried, "Son, what's wrong with you?"

The man said and pushed the old lady to the ground, pinching his neck with both hands.

I've been awake since the man knocked on the door, maybe it's because the rain is too loud and I can't fall asleep!
When I heard the sound of "ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping," I got up to see what was going on.

It just so happened that a man strangled the old lady tightly by the neck. The old lady was old and had no room to fight back against this young man.

I went up and kicked the man away, and the man stood up, which really shocked me.

The man rushed towards me. I didn't have any weapons in my hand, and everything was in the old lady's room, so I could only keep dodging.

"Grandma, is this your son?"

I controlled the man with both hands, trying not to let the man hurt the old lady.

The old lady had never seen such a scene before, she was dumbfounded at the time, and cried: "It was fine when I went out this morning, who knows that it didn't take long after I came back, and it became like this."

I watched the man's behavior, as if he had been poisoned by some kind of poison, and hurriedly asked, "What did he do after he came back?"

The old lady thought for a while and said, "I didn't do anything, I just drank a bowl of water and ate a few bites of vegetables!"

I kicked the man away, quickly came to the table, picked up the man's drinking bowl, put it in front of my nose and smelled it, and then looked at the food on the table.

There was a slight peculiar smell at night, and after I smelled it carefully, I realized it was mint. "Peppermint? Why does this bowl smell like mint?"

The old lady said: "My son has been sick since he was a child, and he can't drink normal water. He can only drink it by putting some mint leaves in the water."

I said "oh", the old beggar once had a taboo book of hundreds of poisonous insects, which recorded hundreds of poisonous insects and their shortcomings.

"Mint, mint, something is afraid of mint."

For a while I couldn't remember.
