Chapter 19: A raging fire suddenly appeared in front of my eyes

The moment his forehead touched the ground, a deep sigh finally came from the jade pendant. There was pity, but also sadness, but more of tolerance and joy.

I didn't care to explore the other person's emotions, I just felt the heat in my heart moving towards my arms, and an indescribable force gathered in my palms.

That power comes from my husband—Bai Xuan.

And I pressed down hard, and the power in my palm suddenly rushed towards the three coffins!

Then, the entire back mountain trembled with rumbles, and the gravel and vegetation on the mountain seemed to be trembling!

It spread in this late night, like an earthquake and a collapse of the sky, which was particularly terrifying.

"Ah!" they screamed, unable to even speak, they could only point to the deep pit dug in front of them in panic——

I saw grandpa's coffin slowly starting to fall in the deep pit.

As the surrounding loess fell, his coffin slowly but surely poured into the unfathomable center of the earth in full view of everyone.

The round graves of my parents beside me were trembling, and a huge pit suddenly collapsed in the center of the high rise!

And I raised my head with firm eyes.

"Grandpa, dad, mom. No one will disturb your rest in the future."

I held the jade pendant on my chest. Never before had I felt so deeply grateful to him and had such a strong sense of belonging to him.

"Husband, thank you."

A voice in my ear gradually dissipated: "Little bride, don't be afraid."

I know I won't be afraid anymore.

I didn't even look at the people in front of me, I just dusted off the dirt on my skirt and said, "From now on, I am no longer a member of the village, and I have nothing to do with the village."

"I won't kill you, so you can take care of yourself."



There was no light from the torch, but I walked on flat ground in this pitch black darkness and quickly returned home.

There were screams one after another in the village, and along with the cry of "Ghost!", every house lit up with dim candlelight.

I didn't lie to the village chief, and the girl in the wedding dress didn't go out to kill anyone - it took a lot of effort for her to get where she is today, and I will never let her get into debt easily again.

I just begged the wedding girl to go down the mountain and let everyone in the village know how they got the peace in the past 16 years.

And then, why was it lost?

The human heart is never satisfied, and people are selfish.

In the years to come, even if there are no ghosts intruding, if people in the village have a headache or a natural disaster, everyone will consciously draw their anger back to what happened today.

None of them had it easy.

Those people will never find peace.

And Chunyan, her good reputation that she was proud of has been shattered. Even the most despised scoundrel in the village, if he wants to marry her, he will probably have to consider whether he can survive the inexplicable ghosts and snake monsters.

.

I know the pain of getting married as a married woman, and I never thought that marriage was the only future for a woman, but for Chunyan, this is the most important thing in her life.

I want her to lose everything she wants.



And in the early morning light, I packed up the remaining money at home, prepared some dry food for myself, and then put the spiritual tablets of my parents and grandpa into the baggage.

When the dawn light shone into the yard, I carried my baggage, held up a black umbrella, and smiled at the girl in the wedding dress under the umbrella.

"let's go."

Let me go and see the place outside the village.

The girl in the wedding dress looked at me: "My name is Xiaolian."

"Xiaolian."

I chewed on this name, and now I cherished it deeply in my heart, placing it on the same level as the name of my previous husband, Bai Xuan.

Now I have no relatives.

But now this jade pendant and the little lotus in front of me are my most cherished relatives.



However, the moment I stepped out of the village, a blazing fire suddenly appeared in front of me.

The fire burned, but it didn't sting. Instead, it made me feel warm and comfortable.

I subconsciously pressed my eyes.

The black umbrella in her hand almost slipped, and Xiaolian's red wedding dress was quickly burned by the sun with a streak of smoke.

I was holding on tight again.

Xiaolian pressed the handle of the umbrella with her cold palms: "Yu Xin, I can hold the umbrella by myself, don't worry."

But she looked at me and covered my eyes, and asked worriedly: "What's wrong?"

I have no idea.

I could see nothing but blazing fire.

And the feeling this fire gives me... isn't bad.

"I don't know either," I looked at her: "I'm not familiar with the Sky Eye yet, but it shouldn't be a bad thing."

The illusion disappeared in a flash, and the vision in front of me returned to normal. I stood up straight and held the black umbrella in my hand again.

"It's better for me to do it. Otherwise, if there is a black umbrella floating in the air, passers-by will be frightened when they see it. Wouldn't it just put a burden on your practice?"

"But when we get to the town, I will put the umbrella away. I'm afraid you will have to hide in it."

Xiaolian looked at me, her soft and white face looking gentle.

"Yu Xin, do you think it's aggrieved that I'm huddled under the umbrella? Not at all!"

She laughed happily:

"Having someone by my side and giving me a place to stay is enough for me to be happy."

"only……"

She looked sadly at the bamboo handle of the black umbrella in her hand and the old umbrella cover...

There used to be a layer of butter cloth on top, but it wasn't very good at blocking the sun, so before I left, I put on another layer of black cloth.

My craftsmanship is naturally incomparable to that of an umbrella maker.

When I looked at it carefully during the day, I could see that there were flaws everywhere.

Xiaolian sighed:

"Yu Xin, we must do good deeds to cultivate merit. We have to learn slowly to catch ghosts and exorcise demons, which also costs a lot of money. When we enter the town, if we have the opportunity, we should make more money.

."

She stared at the black umbrella longingly:

"I heard that girls from wealthy families in the city hold umbrellas with gold and jade handles, inlaid with precious stones, and light-transmissible fine oilcloth. They are also covered with thin silk and fine embroidery..."

"I really want an umbrella like Yibing."

I also became worried.

"It's made of silk, jewelry, and gold and jade... That umbrella must be heavy when held up. It's not easy for the wealthy ladies in the city."

If he returns to the countryside to farm, he should also be a good hand.

Why does the painting book say that rich ladies cannot carry it on their shoulders or lift it with their hands?

Xiaolian blinked in confusion: "Does Miss Qianjin still need to hold her own umbrella?"

Don’t you have a maid?

"Don't you need it?"

Do the maids still need to help hold an umbrella? This job is so simple, I can do it too!

I had never left the village and knew nothing about the outside world. The only stories I heard in the village were fragmentary stories.

It sounds strange at this moment.

But I'm still a little confused: "If you don't need to hold the umbrella by yourself, then why do they make the umbrella so beautiful? You can only feel it when you hold it yourself."

Rich people are so weird.
