Chapter 22
The placenta is exposed outside the body, and the umbilical cord is the last link between this poor mother and Xiao Chu. No one knows what kind of pain and torture the woman in this room has just experienced, just like no one knows whether Xiao Chu is a human or a ghost. Because she appeared at the wrong time.The red blood flowed from the bed to the door like a road paved with manjushahua.

It is an instinct for the baby to cry out loudly without knowing the world.The howling wind blew off the leaves of the old tree at the door, and at the end of the blood stains at the door were pieces of floating will-o'-the-wisps.There is a group of men, women and children in all kinds of clothes waiting and watching indistinctly. The baby girl inside the door suddenly laughed for some reason. Who is making her happy?
The line of sight fell on the body of the female body that was still emitting warmth from the umbilical cord, and a strange thing happened, because Xiao Chu's mother sat up, and a closer look turned out to be a human figure transformed from a layer of transparent shadow, her pale face With a gentle smile on her face, she was talking to the baby girl for some reason, and her hands were in a hugging posture, but after she tried a few times, she found that she could not touch her daughter's body except for the part that would penetrate Xiao Chu's body. penny.

There seemed to be tears flowing in the eyes of the woman, although she was just a ghost, like the ghosts outside, she could only enjoy her last night in the world.

But facing her newborn daughter who has not yet enjoyed the embrace and breastfeeding of her mother, she has great reluctance.Although her own death may really have something to do with the birth of her child, because a Taoist priest told her a few years ago that her daughter would be born when the gate of the underworld opened on the Ghost Festival, with a natural yin on her body The resentment and resentment are brought by the child she personally abandoned in her previous life, and she will surely overcome her father and mother and die prematurely.

As a kind woman, she longs to have a baby with her husband, because it is the testimony and sustenance of their love.After a lot of consideration, she chose to fight desperately. It wasn't that she didn't believe in the guidance of her mentor, but she didn't want to believe it. The persistence in her heart—the insistence on having a child was too strong, so strong that she was willing to use it. In exchange for my own life and safety, what if things turn around or the Taoist priest is just talking nonsense?
Perhaps, every mother will choose to have a child without hesitation when faced with this problem, and she is the same.From the moment she knew that there was a little heart beating with her own heart in her belly, she had the happiest time in her short life.The husband's care in every possible way, and every light kick of the fetus in the womb will make the young mother laugh heartily.No one would have thought that after eight months of arduous pregnancy, she would encounter the first prophecy of death, her husband's car accident.

After simply taking care of her husband's funeral, she survived with strength. As an outsider in the village, and her parents-in-law passed away early, now even the husband who loves her the most has left her. She deeply knows that, except for her stomach She has almost no hope of surviving the child in her life.Whether the prophecies will all be fulfilled, she does not know.

However, the life in the stomach is such a vivid existence, every movement, turning over, punching and kicking, all prove that there is a baby who is about to be born in his stomach.She can't be sad, even if her heart hurts like a knife every time she thinks of her husband's voice and smile, she still has to laugh, otherwise the child will become ugly and have a bad temper. This is what the old man in the village said.

But it has been until the child is born, why is God still so cruel and deprived her of the last chance to hug the child, she couldn't even pick up the scissors prepared by her side to cut the umbilical cord that connected herself with the child.The daughter who was born suddenly came to the underworld at the same time as the ghosts on the mountain at the night when every house closed its doors and windows. What serious sins did she commit in her previous life to have such a tragic ending?

Could it be because of the abandonment of the child in the previous life?How I wish that things were not as Yun You had predicted, but who knows the causal cycle of things in the world.If I hadn't cruelly abandoned my child in the previous life, would I have a happy family in this life instead of being ruined like now, leaving only an ignorant daughter crying heartbreakingly on a bed full of blood? Shouting... reluctance, ah reluctance...

Someone outside seemed to be calling for him to hurry up and get on the road. The child in front of him suddenly looked at him and smiled, and all the unwillingness disappeared at this moment.The proverbs of the Taoist priests came to mind: Everyone has his own destiny, and the bitter fruit you will taste in the future is the result of your own sins. If the ending is bound to follow the fate...

When the woman showed her last smile, she suddenly had an epiphany, and she no longer missed the worldly affairs. She took a deep look at her daughter for the last time, then turned and floated outside the door, along the road paved with blood, to the front of the ghosts. After receiving a green lantern handed over by the leader of the other party, he and all the dead souls began their last night stay in the world of the dead.

Under the dim light in the room, the baby girl on the bed was shivering from the cold, and her little arms were waving restlessly as if trying to grab something.The body next to the baby girl was getting colder, and everything here had long been covered by the howling of ghosts and the rustling of trees outside.No one came to cut the umbilical cord of the baby girl, and no one came to clean up the corpse of the woman. The cold air in the house turned into a lonely room. Who would listen to the story of life and death?

It's not that no one heard children crying at the foot of the mountain in the distance, but at this moment the hearts of the living have become as cold as the dead, and some people have lost their conscience and warmth just because of the fear of the dead. It is to preserve one's own life.Even if the child in the ear was crying so loudly but tragically, no one would kindly visit the little house at the foot of the mountain.

The baby on the bed lay like this all night. Fortunately, a neighboring villager came to visit early the next morning.Only then did they discover that the child's mother had long since died, and only the lonely little girl was left alone to face the world she didn't understand at all.Soon the news spread to every household. Whether it was watching the fun or really caring, there was always a soft-hearted woman from the Chu family who decided to take the child and raise her. That's why the name Xiao Chu came about.Chu Yu means that the child will be as pure, flawless, beautiful and intelligent as jade in the future.

Hope is always just hope, except for a pair of different pupils that occasionally emit a circle of light green fluorescence that is not very noticeable at night, Xiao Chu was not much different from other children when he was a baby.However, it is worth noting that this child sometimes bursts into laughter and tears for no apparent reason. Besides, he seems to understand human language and often makes oh-oh-oh-ohh sounds at the adults who are talking, and waved his pink and pink fists. With a wave, it made everyone happy.

For a baby girl whose parents both died, everyone felt a little bit of sympathy and pity. No matter how cold-blooded people saw such a lively little life, they couldn't help but want to hug it, so Xiao Chu didn't speak until she was one year old It is very popular with women.

However, Xiao Chu's life experience determines that this child is different.Because she has too much resentment and yin energy in her body, the dead parents will also attract ghosts, of course her adoptive parents don't know this.

Time flies, Xiao Chu turned one year old in a blink of an eye, and her ordinary life was finally broken by her first sentence, because the first word that popped out of her little mouth was neither father nor mother but you are going to die, The cowardly accent still has the softness of a baby, but the tone of voice is so cold as if it came from the underworld.Xiao Chu said the four words very slowly.So slow that the woman holding her was startled into sweat, feeling as if the world had come to an end.When I said this, it was on the night of July [-]th, Xiao Chu's birthday.Although the talk about ghosts in the countryside made the adoptive parents very worried, but nothing strange happened in the previous year. Unexpectedly, on this very night, Xiao Chu spoke up.

If you don't make a sound, it's enough to make a blockbuster. In a word, it seems that Lord Yan's life and death plan easily determines the life and death of people.

When Xiao Chu said these words, the cold wind outside instantly picked up, the tiles on the roof were whistling, and the woman holding her was terrified, and she no longer knew how to respond to the scene in front of her .Is she going to ask Xiao Chu who is going to die?Is it yourself?Or the husband or Xiao Chu saw someone?

Her lips began to tremble, and a pair of cold hands were placed on the woman's neck. Xiao Chu in her arms was as icy cold as if she had been poured with cold water, and completely lost the heat that a human should have.A pair of round eyes shone strangely with green light, like a wolf descending the mountain, ready to prey at any time.On a dark and windy night, when all the ghosts descended from the mountain, Xiao Chu's first supernatural ability was shown in front of her adoptive mother, prophesying that this child could predict life and death...

Because, behind the woman, a woman in white was slowly moving her hands from behind her back to the front of her neck, and a pair of gray and withered hands were about to make a pinching motion.

Hehehe, Xiao Chu suddenly burst out laughing.Because in the past, the adoptive father often hid behind the adoptive mother like this and suddenly stretched out his head and hands to make Xiao Chu happy.Who is Xiao Chu playing with this time?The woman in white had exactly the same face as the woman in front of her, except for her dull eyes, even her height was the same.

After the astonishing words just came out, all of this was a bit too unusual, why did the girl in front of me suddenly laugh?What exactly does that sentence mean?What kind of secret is hidden in the child in her arms?Why does she look mysterious and unpredictable for a while, and is innocent and innocent like ordinary babies, ignorant of world affairs?There seemed to be a vortex spinning rapidly in the woman's heart, sweeping in, concentrating all her thoughts on this little ghost.

Suddenly, there seemed to be something tightly tightened around the neck, and the woman's breathing began to be difficult. As the hands gradually retracted, the woman's facial expression became distorted, and her entire face began to swell and turn purple.Xiao Chu was a little surprised, why did her mother have such a strange expression?Isn't the aunt behind her just teasing her?She didn't seem to know what she just said, as if it came from another mouth.

The woman was already on the verge of fainting, a white light spread in front of her eyes in the distance, and a long passage slowly spread out in front of her.Consciousness became blurred, body became light, like a feather, and he was about to float towards the passage being carried by the person behind him.At the other end of the passage, a door opened inexplicably, and a deceased relative smiled at the door and said, come on, child.They kindly waved and called, and the experiences of their lives appeared in their minds like a movie, and they became extremely happy physically and mentally, as if the world of bliss was ahead.

I am going there?The woman wanted to ask the woman behind her, but when she turned her head, she realized that it was herself, but before she could think about it, the shadow behind her suddenly entered her body at a speed visible to the naked eye, and her feet had already left the ground , the wind lifted the weightless body.My mind has become chaotic, and the memory is rushing in like a tide, and there is no room for a little space to think about where I am going at this time...
