Chapter 116 Parents. Memories
Mr. Qian suppressed the fear in his heart and tried to stay rational, but found that he couldn't do it at all.
He suddenly grabbed Gu Ji's hand and asked, "What do you mean Xiao Feng is our child?"
"What I mean is, you were originally pregnant with twins, but there's an ancient method whereby the unborn baby can be transferred to a blood relative. This method was originally used to alleviate female fertility problems. In ancient times, many mothers who gave birth were still young, and needed a mother who had given birth to take on the responsibility of childbirth. So, they used this method to take Xiaofeng away."
This method was also what Gu Ji saw in a book.
When she met Qian Bin and Liu Minghong, she thought they looked very strange.
On the way back, I tried hard to recall the contents of the books I had read and remembered this secret method.
The couple seemed to have pressed the pause button.
They were unable to digest the shock of this truth for a while, but all these years when they looked at Xiaofeng they always felt that he was their own child.
Whether in terms of living habits or appearance, Xiaofeng really looks more like their child.
Whenever they met and parted during festivals, they always missed the child.
When the child died suddenly in the accident, I felt so heartbroken as if my whole body was run over by a truck. I still can't get rid of the pain when I think about it.
But if Xiaofeng is really their child, didn’t their inaction over the years exacerbate the consequences of Xiaofeng’s death?
Gu Ji stood up silently. "You two, I know this news is a little hard to digest. I'm going to go check on Xiaozhou first. Let Xiaozhou live with us for the time being. As for you two, Xiaoyu will protect you. Although Xiaoyu looks like a child, she is actually older than the two of you combined. She will stay in Xiaozhou's room. I don't think that couple will let it go tonight."
The couple nodded mechanically and numbly sent them out.
After packing Qian Zhou's clothes and waiting for them to get in the car and close the door, Gu Ji heard heart-wrenching cries coming from the living room.
That kind of crying seemed to penetrate one's soul.
For a moment, everyone in the car was silent.
They originally thought they were here just for vacation and to record a show. After all, as long as they took care of themselves, they would feel safe with them.
But when you really come into contact with these inexplicable and terrifying things, beneath the inexplicable appearance, you will usually find the ordinary human ignorance and anger.
Ye Qingtong cursed inwardly, "What a piece of shit! He snatched someone else's child and treated him as his own, then didn't take good care of him for so many years, and even after he died, he wouldn't let him rest in peace. What kind of beast is he?"
Even Liang Wan, who had been very quiet, couldn't help but nod.
After all, her life had been stolen, and she could empathize with the situation.
If Qian Feng and Qian Zhou were born together, he would definitely grow up happily in this family.
"So why was Qian Feng 'eaten' by that mountain?" Dai An asked.
Gu Ji: "I don't know, but I will go into the mountains again tonight to take a look. Sister Xia, please protect them tonight. The man in black who took Qian Feng away during the day may show up."
Sister Xia patted her chest and said, "Leave it to me."
It was pitch black outside and everyone was a little worried. It was a bit dangerous to go into the mountains alone.
But once Gu Ji has made his decision, it is difficult to change it.
Rather than sit and wait for death, she prefers to take the initiative.
Fortunately, the partners she chose were very supportive of her. They just reminded her to be careful and they would ensure their own personal safety.
Sister Xia drove the car to the foot of the mountain again, Gu Ji got out of the car, and the car drove away from the foot of the mountain.
There was complete silence all around, and with every step I took, the sound of my shoes' soles stepping on the dead leaves was exceptionally loud.
Gu Ji's eyes could still see clearly at night, and she walked up along the same path she had taken during the day.
As he walked up the stone steps, Gu Ji suddenly discovered that the stone steps that were dry during the day were covered with moss at night.
She squatted down and rolled over it with her fingers. The wet moss gave off an unpleasant fishy smell. But when she looked closely, she realized that it was not moss at all.
Broken skin mixed with rotten flesh.
There are also faintly visible nails and teeth.
Crushed hair and broken bones wrapped inside.
That's human tissue growing on the steps.
Gu Ji felt a little disgusted, so she silently rubbed the thing onto the steps.
Looking back, the mud had almost covered the entire staircase, and was even trying to climb onto Gu Ji's body.
Gu Ji silently took out the evil-repelling talisman written in blood and shook it. The talisman paper floated behind her, and the blood-red fire illuminated her surroundings. The debris was instantly burned and bounced away by the flames.
It's so disgusting. She must take a good shower and wash her hands when she gets home.
Sister Xia said that the bathing culture here is very famous, and she wanted to have a bath after she finished her business.
Returning to that abandoned graveyard again, it had changed.
The resentment is overwhelming.
Amidst the rising resentment, she seemed to see something in the darkness of the night.
Gu Ji quickly climbed up a nearby tree and looked down.
These thirteen ownerless graves.
It's a magic circle.
After calculation, the center of the formation is on the north side.
Gu Ji patted the Yama Sword, and the sword came out of the sheath with a buzzing sound and instantly stabbed towards the north.
When the soil mixed with human body debris was picked up, the strong smell of blood instantly penetrated Gu Ji's nose, almost making her vomit.
On the ground, a door handle slowly appeared.
Gu Ji leaped forward, and the empty space that was originally empty suddenly became filled with countless hands, trying to grab her soul.
She said in a deep voice: "Go away."
The hands were shaken away by the power in her body.
Pull the door handle and there is a passage leading to the underground.
She walked down.
When the head was completely in, the door above the head slowly closed. Except for the light printed by the talisman paper, the surroundings were pitch dark and there was no sight of the front or back.
She looked at her feet and walked down the stairs. After about fifteen minutes, the stairs finally disappeared and Gu Ji stepped on flat ground.
A strange feeling of familiarity suddenly came over me.
The buzzing sound of the Yama Knife became louder and began to pull Gu Ji forward.
She started with small steps, then took big strides, and then ran forward with big strides. All the darkness around her gradually became bright before her eyes.
This place looks like a tree hole.
Vines and roots crisscrossed the surroundings, and the wood smelled pleasant.
Yanluo Dao stopped moving forward. She saw some childish paintings hanging on the wooden wall. Those paintings were brightly colored and imaginative.
Many paintings depict three people, a man, a woman, and a little girl.
Her heart suddenly felt like it was clenched. Gu Ji raised her hand and scratched a corner of the drawing paper. In that small corner, she saw a line of small words.
[Gu Ji. Painting]
The fragments of memory that flashed through my mind began to piece together.
She suddenly realized that this was where she once lived.
To be precise.
It was the place where her parents took her to hide.
They have been hiding in this dark tree hole for the past eight years.
The blood on the ground indicated that a very brutal battle had taken place here.
The smell of blood in the air was washed away by the smell of wood.
A voice came from above her head. She looked up and saw a piece of silk ribbon with no end in sight floating above her head, as thin as a cicada's wing.
Suddenly!
The ribbon shrank in size and instantly wrapped around her hair, tying it into a beautiful bow.
