C1 My dead grandmother is going to take me away

When my grandmother died at the age of ten, I suffered from a strange illness. I was not well for a long time after I had been injected with medicine, and I was especially sober at night, often babbling nonsense.

After five consecutive days of fever, I really couldn't do anything. My parents took me to the countryside to find an aunt, saying that she was going to treat me. My aunt here does not refer to her father's relatives, but to the honorific title of our couple.

My aunt looked at me and said that my grandmother died not long ago and wanted to take me with her because she couldn't bear to leave me.

When his parents heard this, they were terrified. They said that even if the old lady felt sorry for her granddaughter, they couldn't take the child away with them. They begged their eldest aunt to think of a way.

The aunt lit up a cigarette and smoked. She said that the old lady cared for her child, so it was not a big problem.

But after all, Humans and ghosts are different. If I let my mother go home and 'raise the chopsticks' and burn some ingots and virgin girls, I should be able to send the old lady away.

In this way, as soon as I got home, my mother brought me a big bowl of water, and three chopsticks and a handful of rice, and a cloth over my head.

He dipped three chopsticks into the water, tapped them from head to toe of my body, and used his right hand to hold onto three chopsticks as he stood in the water bowl while muttering, "Don't be offended by the collision. Since I've found Qing Sheng, I'll offer you a water bowl as a meal. Please let our Qing Sheng go." Qing Sheng is my name)

After my mother finished talking, she let go of my hand. The cloth covering my head was very thin, and I could clearly see that the three chopsticks were standing straight in the water bowl without any support.

The aunt said that if all three chopsticks were standing still, it meant that there was something in the house.

None of us spoke, but the tension was palpable. There were some things that were fine, but once they confirmed that there was a ghost at home, everyone would feel a chill run down their spines.

After that, my mother put away the chopsticks and stood up for the second time. This time, she asked me if I was my grandma or not.

After confirming that there was a ghost, the second time around, if the chopsticks found the right person, the chopsticks would stop eating, and they would end up falling down.

This time, the chopsticks stopped, just as my aunt said, my dead grandma came.

Seeing this, I heaved a sigh of relief. I grew up with my grandmother, and the one who pained her the most when she was still alive was me. Now knowing that my grandma would miss me even after she left, I suddenly feel like crying as I look at the three chopsticks standing upright.

My mother also wiped her face and choked with emotions. She said good things about her family, that they were all very well, that I ask her to be at ease, that she would take good care of me, that my grandmother would be at ease, and that she would send a child to accompany her grandmother.

After saying that, my mom added a handful of rice into the bowl and said, "Mom, I'll send you home for a meal. Please feel at ease. Humans and ghosts have different paths, let's go our separate ways."

Strange to say, after my mom said that, her chopsticks fell down right in the direction of the door, which meant that my grandma went through the door.

That night, my parents burned the virgin girl and the gold and silver treasure to my grandmother, and the next morning my illness did indeed recover.

But soon after my grandmother, something even stranger happened to me.

After more than a month, I began to have nightmares all night long.

Sometimes I would dream that I was going to a temple full of fierce statue of the protector, which I had never been to, but which I found very familiar.

There were also a few times I dreamt that the Buddha Bodhisattva was sitting on my bed, solemnly looking at me with his golden body movement technique. The feeling made me tremble in fear. When I struggled to wake up, my entire body was drenched in sweat.

After half a month, I am afraid to sleep at night

My parents had no choice but to take me to find my aunt again.

However, the aunt was not surprised to learn of my matter. She even said a few words:

A kind heart without evil, a rich Immortal affinity, can be accepted as a scented child!

If you have any fate with me, you can accept me as a scented child!

With evil bones growing all over his body, he could be accepted as a scented child!

My aunt had her eyes closed when she said this, but I had the feeling that a pair of eyes was watching me.

Meanwhile, my mother asked my aunt what she meant by that.

The aunt only had one eye that was good, and the other eye that seemed to be covered in a white gauze. It was a blurry white color, and looked a little cautious. She looked at me sideways with her good eye and said that she had expected this day to come, but she had not expected it so soon.

His parents were confused at first, asking if the old lady had come back.

Aunt shook her head, saying that because I have an evil bone, I will be captured sooner or later.

Hearing this, his parents' expressions became complicated. I asked curiously, what was being captured by Xian`er.

After my aunt's explanation, I finally understood the seriousness of the matter.

Catching Xian'er is also called stepping on a child or on a brother's horse. "It means that some animal immortals (Hu Huang Chang Python, Gray Willow) who have cultivated for hundreds of years, have come to the mortal world to accumulate merits for themselves or to accept the task of becoming a god, in order to reach the rank of an immortal class and become a deity.

However, for deities to directly take human form or treat people's illnesses in the form of humans, it would be shocking if they were not allowed to offend the laws of heaven.

Therefore, the immortals would choose those with immortal karma to be the scented children (also known as the disciples who came forth), and they would cooperate with them to convert the world into their own body.

As for those who were chosen by the deities, they were known as "deities that came out of hiding", and they were also called "seeing fragrance" or "leaving the hall". At present, there are only tens of thousands of families in the Northeast of China, so it's not a rare thing.

Furthermore, many ordinary families would also offer worship to the immortals, who were also known as the 'Protectors', and would protect their homes as per their name.

The aunt said that it wasn't unusual for the old Daoist to step on a scented child, but most of them were thirty to fifty years old, just like I, a little girl of ten, had never seen such a person before.

Eldest Aunt advised my parents to let me handle it. Otherwise, if the deities were to get into trouble, even an adult wouldn't be able to take it, let alone a ten-year-old girl like me. If I were to cause more problems, it wouldn't be worth it.

After that, his parents discussed and said that it wasn't impossible for Ma Li's Incense Hall to exist, it was just that he was too young to ruin his future, and he would at least wait until he was 18 years old.

When my aunt heard this, she closed her eyes and began to shake her head. After that, I knew that she was always communicating with the deities, but I didn't know how she communicated with them.

After a while, First Aunt opened her eyes and said that the immortal had opened her face, and that she would wait until I was eighteen before setting up my Incense Hall.

But in the past few years, I have to pay tribute to the deities, even for the first 15 years. Phoenix eggs, welcoming the wind, little phoenixes, floating poplars, grass rolls, green tea bowls.

Eggs, wine, chicken, dumplings, tobacco, water.

My father and mother looked at each other and nodded. The aunt nodded at the same time.

Thus, my fate was decided by the three of them in my own muddled state.

Since it was already dark, my aunt said that with my current physique, there was no way I could get into trouble on the night route, so she left the three of us to stay at her house for the night.

That night, I dreamed of a kind old lady with silver hair and a low bun. She sat by my pillow and stroked my head, along with a few cute little foxes.

When he opened his eyes the next day, not only did he not have any nightmares, he felt refreshed.

He told my parents about the old lady and the little fox that I dreamt of that night. When my aunt heard this, she said that the Third Grandma Hu cherished my young age.

Because I will have to walk this path sooner or later, and because Big Aunt said that this is also fate for me and her. She has no children by herself, so she suggested that I come and stay here with her for a period of time every year during the holidays.

My family had never believed this before, but after what happened twice, they knew that what my aunt said was true. After discussing it, my parents decided to leave it to me.

I was young and loved to play, so I didn't know what I was going to face. I just thought that every holiday I would have to take all sorts of classes, and once I heard that I could stay with my aunt and have a good time, I agreed without thinking.

At that time, it just happened to be summer vacation. Mom and Dad could only agree to stay for two days before coming back home if they weren't used to it.

My mother stayed with me for a few days. It was quite a magical thing to say, since I slept in Eldest Aunt's House, I didn't get any more nightmares.

Every winter and summer since then, I've been staying with my aunt.

In this world, besides my parents, my aunt became my closest elder brother.

Only, his days in the Eldest Aunt's House were a bit boring, and he didn't have any computers or entertainment activities. He would occasionally wander around the village to pass the time when he was bored.

I was about to return when I heard a strange sound coming from the bracts not far away. It sounded like the whining of a woman.
