At night, a mass grave.
Wow—wow—wow—
Crows were circling in the sky and a few wild dogs were running around, but they consciously avoided the pile of new yellow mud with white paper money scattered all over the ground.
A hand with a purple tinge in white suddenly stretched out from the pile of yellow mud, and the thumb was grabbed by a two or three-month-old baby next to the pile.
Baji~~~
The baby was sucking his thumb and giggling from time to time.
There's no way, she is very tired now.
How could she, the most mysterious and powerful doctor with magical hands, suddenly have a miscarriage for no apparent reason?
The kind that was thrown here together with its mother when it was only three months old.
In order to survive, she rebelled in the mass grave.
She smiled to scare away wild dogs, crows, and the bad guys who wanted to turn around and dig up her grave, and also to attract someone who could take her away from here.
Born in March, she bears a weight that she shouldn't bear at her age.
At this time, several brave wild dogs slowly surrounded them.
“Hehe…”
Feeling the danger coming again, she giggled once more, her laughter continuous like silver bells, making this gloomy mass grave even more frightening.
The crows were so frightened that they forgot to flap their wings and fell down, and the wild dogs ran around in panic.
"who?"
The young man, covered in blood and mud, was walking numbly, carrying the person he had just rescued from the tree. When he heard the sound, he turned his head to look.
There was no one there, but he saw a jade bracelet in the moonlight.
It emitted a faint green light, and even though the light was dim, he could still see clearly that it was a jade bracelet.
Gao Miao put his mother down and walked towards the pile of yellow mud with his legs as if they were out of control.
There was only one thought in his mind: the jade bracelet, exchanging it for money, and saving his mother.
All I could see was the jade bracelet.
Gao Zhi blinked his big starry eyes at Gao Miao who was approaching.
Even after being beaten like this, he can still be so handsome.
He will definitely be another handsome boy after he is dressed up.
Gao Zhi was excited and let go of her mother's fingers.
“Ouch~~~”
As soon as her hands loosened, she rolled down from the pile of mud.
"who?"
Gao Miao vaguely heard a cry of "ouch" and looked around in fear.
It was dark everywhere, not a single ghost was in sight.
ghost?
Yes, it’s normal to have ghosts in the mass grave here, right?
A cold wind blew in from the top of Gao Miao's head, making him shiver and his legs tremble.
[I, I, I... Handsome boy, look at me, I'm here...] Gao Zhi danced with his limbs under the yellow mud pile, forgetting that it was dark.
Gao Miao heard the sound of people talking again, and was so scared that he knelt down with a thud, bowed to the pile of yellow earth, then took off the jade bracelet and turned away.
Gao Miao carried his mother on his back and left without looking back.
Gao Zhi watched Gao Miao leave, and was so angry that she gnashed her non-existent teeth and waved her little fists.
[I am such a cute little baby, can't you see? ]
【Stop and look back at me. 】
[You little bastard, you can't take other people's things for free. ]
[Ahhhh… Ahhhh…]
Gao Miao paused, listening to the increasingly angry voice. He shook his head, beads of cold sweat dripping from his forehead, and he gathered all his strength and walked faster and faster.
Horrible! I saw a ghost!
Gao Zhi looked up at the sky, tears almost streaming down his face.
Suddenly she saw a crow flying over, and she giggled as hard as she could.
So angry!
She was so angry that she was about to explode, but she still smiled.
Gao Zhi's right eye quickly turned red. The strange red light startled the crows in the sky so much that they fell down with a scream. But she had no idea that it was because of her eyes, not her laughter.
Gao Zhi was very proud, chuckle...
Laugh louder!
Let go of your anger with a smile!
The night is getting deeper!
Gao Zhi wanted to sleep, but she was afraid that she would be fed to wild dogs as soon as she closed her eyes, so she sucked her thumb sadly.
Baji~~~ Baji~~~
[You son of a bitch, don't let me see you again! Otherwise, I'll gouge out your eyes, rub your face, and break your nose...]
Ah...
Gao Miao, who was carrying a hoe and a thin coffin, suddenly sneezed.
Why do I hear this sound again?
Gao Miao put down his things, lit a torch, looked around, and when he met the baby's gaze, he actually felt like the baby was going to tear him apart.
Well……
Why is there a baby here?
Could this be the ghost baby that the villagers were talking about?
A few days ago, villagers said that a ghost baby with a very evil aura appeared in the mass grave.
That's it.
Gao Miao reached out his hand carefully and a little fearfully and touched Gao Zhi's cheek.
Not cold, but soft.
This is not a ghost!
Gao Zhi bared her teeth at him, revealing her pink gums. She didn't look fierce at all, but rather a little cute.
Gao Miao's heart softened, he bent down and picked up Gao Zhi.
Suddenly, everything went dark.
His eyes were covered by the fat boy's fist, and his nose felt a little itchy after being touched by the fat boy's fist. His face felt sticky and was covered with saliva from the fat boy's hand.
Gao Miao chuckled and looked at the baby in his arms, "You should be the child of the owner of the jade bracelet. I used the jade bracelet to save her life, but I thought it wouldn't be for nothing, so I prepared a thin coffin to bury her.
I can't repay her kindness, so just come home with me.
From now on, I will support you!"
My mother once said that one should never forget to be grateful.
Hearing Gao Miao's words, Gao Zhi's eyes lit up and he stared at him closely.
He snorted and turned his head away awkwardly.
How can you, a little boy of seven or eight years old, support your sister?
Gao Miao took off his coat, put Gao Zhi on his back with the coat, and started to work. When he finished the work, Gao Zhi had fallen asleep on his back.
…
When Gao Zhi woke up, he opened his eyes and saw the thatched roof above his head. He turned his head to look at the furnishings in the house.
Gao Zhi shook his head.
This place is poor.
Crunch...
The broken wooden door was pushed open, and a figure stood with his back to the light, as if there was light on him, and instantly a strong aura spread in the cabin.
Gao Zhi looked at him in a daze.
Gao Miao came in carrying a bowl of porridge so clear that you could count the rice grains, and found that Gao Zhi had woken up. He bent down, but his movements were awkward and his whole body was stiff as he picked up Gao Zhi.
He didn't quite dare to hold the soft little baby.
I came back from the mass grave last night and was thankful that the little baby was asleep and didn’t wake up no matter how much I tossed and turned.
Walking to the table and sitting down, Gao Miao took a look at the steaming porridge and chose to talk to the baby first. After all, this little baby was not ordinary, and seemed to understand everything, especially his eyes, which seemed to be able to speak.
"From now on, you can be called Gao Zhi."
Gao Zhi: [Huh, your sister’s name is Gao Zhi.]
Why is there a sound again?
Gao Miao reached out and patted his face, and kept telling himself in his heart, I am hallucinating! This is hallucination! This must be hallucination!
He tried to calm himself down and continued, "My name is Gao Miao. From now on, I am your brother. Our mother is bedridden now.
There are only three of us in this family: mother and son.
From now on, if we have a bite to eat, you will be indispensable. Come! Have some porridge."
Gao Miao was busy feeding porridge to Gao Zhi. Although Gao Zhi cooperated, she was still covered in porridge. Finally, she was so angry that she waved her fist in protest.
[Do you know how to feed me? You almost killed me! ]
“???” Gao Miao stopped and looked down at Gao Zhi in disbelief.
Can this little guy talk?
How is this possible?
But he really heard it just now.
Gao Zhi had no idea that Gao Miao could hear what she was thinking, so she continued to complain: [What are you standing there for? Feed me slowly, help me stand up a little so that I won't choke.]
Silly boy, do you know how to do it?
It’s over! This kid doesn’t look very smart. 】
Gao Miao opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a word.
He must be seeing a ghost!
Bang!
Gao Miao slapped himself twice.
Gao Zhi stared: [Are you really stupid? ]
Gao Miao lowered his head and looked at Gao Zhi hesitantly, "I heard it again, Mom, I'm not dreaming."
Just when Gao Zhi was still confused, Gao Miao suddenly hugged Gao Zhi and ran out.
