C13 Shadow

That being said, I kept up with the pace. In any case, this is my closest grandmother.

I grew up with my grandparents, and after my grandfather's death, I only had my grandmother as my only family. I wanted to stay in a big city to work, so I simply wanted my grandmother to live a better life in her later years.

"Grandmother, you've been born today. Do you have any wish for a birthday?" I asked, following closely behind her.

Grandma smiled and stroked her white hair, "What wish do I have? If I truly have a wish, then I hope that my grandson can be safe and sound outside."

My nose felt sour and I forcefully frowned. I endured the feeling and squeezed out a smile. "Your grandson should be safe. Look, didn't I come back?"

"It's good that you're back," Grandmother said with a sigh. "It's all fate."

"Yes, Grandmother, what did you say?" I froze.

"It's nothing, help me check on the stew in my kitchen," Grandmother urged me into the kitchen.

I nodded and ran to the kitchen, my eyes red as I turned around.

Those who had never wandered outside would never be able to experience the benefits of being at home. Only by being with family would they feel safe and warm.

My grandmother's house was the biggest and oldest in town, and when I was a child my favorite thing to do was to run home with my friends and play hide-and-seek, and I always survived because at that time I found a storeroom with all sorts of strange things in it, and every time a ghost's friend passed by, he couldn't see me.

As I thought about it, the corner of my mouth curled up into a smile. It's better to go home.

Even before I reached the kitchen, I could smell the aroma of Grandma's bone-soup.

Just as I was about to enter, I suddenly discovered that there was another flavor mixed within this fragrance.

I didn't know when, but I noticed that my sense of smell had become more sensitive. On the way, I also smelled the smell that Liu Li said. It's just that I wasn't willing to admit this fact.

It seems that ever since I encountered Yin Sha, I have gradually become … Not like a person.

I followed the smell all the way around the kitchen to the backyard and up the corner stairs to the wall, which was my favorite place to stay when I was a kid.

At that time, I always liked to stay on high ground. From there, I could see the scenery of the whole town. When the weather was good, I could also see some tall buildings.

I stood on the wall, still in the same position, still seeing the same scenery, but I was no longer the same as when I was a child.

The whole town seemed to have stopped in time, never changing. The wine flag from the winery was still fluttering in the wind on the west side of the town, and I remembered that when Sixth Uncle sneakily gave me money, he always gave me more and told me to get him some wine.

I have not come back for a long time, even to see the paddy field feel kind... Wait!

I suddenly saw a dark figure in the green, standing stiffly in the middle of the paddy field, motionless.

Who was that? I knew most of the people in the town, and no one had that weird figure. That person had his hands and feet down, and his limbs felt a little soft. He was clearly standing, but his body was strangely twisted, making me feel as if he was carrying a lot of things on his back.

The man seemed to notice that I had noticed him. He moved slightly, then stepped back step by step and disappeared into the green fields.

And as soon as he was gone, the strange smell I had smelled earlier was gone.

I was shocked. Could it be that the smell was brought by the black shadow just now?

However, we were so far away, yet his scent could reach us?

I rubbed my glabella and comforted myself with the fact that there must have been too many weird things happening recently. I was always suspicious of everything, so it was fine. Maybe she just came to check on the growth of the seedlings in her fields.

But... That smell, it made me feel a little familiar.

I followed the path of the shadow until I came to the mouth of the village, where I found the first van we had seen parked.

I hesitated, then carefully climbed over the wall and walked to the van.

After a while, I realized that the smell had appeared again, and the closer I got, the more uneasy I became.

What exactly is inside this car? Why did it have this strange smell?

When I was less than a hundred meters from the truck, I stopped, unsure whether I should go over or not.

This truck is really too weird. I thought for a while and was about to walk over when Grandma's voice sounded from behind me.

"Good grandson, what are you doing here?"

"It's nothing, Grandma, I just came to take a look," I said, a little flustered as I walked towards her. "Grandma, why are you here?"

Grandma smiled and held my hand as she walked towards my house. "The soup is almost ready. Come here and drink it. Good grandson."

I stood where I was, feeling as if there was something my grandmother hadn't said, but I didn't press her. There were some things that my grandmother would naturally tell me when she was willing to tell me, and she definitely wouldn't harm me.

When I reached the entrance of the kitchen, I found Luo Yi Yi and Liu Li standing facing each other, glaring at each other.

"What's the matter?" I ran over with great interest to see what kind of argument the two of them were going to have.

"Liu Li!" That bowl of soup is mine! " Luo Yiyi waved her hand, pointing straight at Liu Li.

Liu Li's face turned slightly red, but he still hid his hands behind his back. "That won't do. It's just a bowl of soup. Do you want to drink it by yourself?"

I immediately became happy. Did these two people never drink soup before or something? Right now, they are fighting over a bowl of soup.

"Hey, let me tell you, is there a need for a bowl of soup like this?" I joked.

"What do you know!" They both looked at me and said the same thing.

Oh wow, these two people didn't know each other's heart.

I curled my lips. Isn't it just soup? Shouldn't it be fine if I just go to find my grandma? Why are you fighting over it here?

"Grandma, do you have more soup?" I shouted into the kitchen.

Grandma just came out of the kitchen and waved at me. "Little Four, Grandma left a bowl for you."

With a face full of pride, I eagerly ran towards Grandma, completely ignoring the murderous gazes of the two people behind me.

I took the soup and took a sip. Suddenly, I realized that something was wrong, previously, it was because of the Yin Demon's possession, so even though the sun was shining brightly outside, I still felt cold all over. Liu Li told me that it was because of the Yin energy, if I didn't remove the Yin energy from my body, I would suffer from the chilling cold.

However, the soup forcibly dispelled the cold within my body. As soon as the soup entered my mouth, my entire body felt warm, and a faint sound of sadness came from somewhere. I knew that the Yin Sha in my body had once again gone into hibernation.

"Grandmother, this soup …" I don't know how to start, this soup is definitely not an ordinary soup, but I still feel that it's a little unreal. I've lived together for dozens of years, but the people around me all have other identities, and everyone is hiding something from you …

"Good grandson, you have to remember, Grandma did it for your own good," Grandma interrupted me, smiling as she took the bowl and walked to the kitchen.

As soon as Grandma left, the two of them surrounded her, their words full of bitterness.

"He really is a blood related grandson …" "I even reserved a bowl of the Nine Yang Soup for you," Liu Li said.

Luo Yiyi also agreed, looking at me hatefully.

"No, what exactly is this soup? Why are you guys fighting over it so fiercely?" I asked, wiping my mouth.

Simply put, Nine Yang Soup is a soup made from nine kinds of Yang energy, it has great benefits for cultivators. "Liu Li explained to me in a serious manner," You have also seen Old Sun draw talismans, the reason why he is so strenuous is because drawing talismans is a matter that consumes a lot of energy.

I nodded. Ever since I swallowed that bowl of soup, I no longer felt any cold. On the contrary, I started to sweat a little.

"See, you can suppress the unreasonable resentment in your body, so you can imagine how strong the effect is," Liu Li said.

Luo Yi Yi added, "But this soup isn't that easy to make. We're already very surprised to have two bowls here. My father probably won't even be able to gather the ingredients."

Luo Yi Yi wanted to say something, but was interrupted by her grandmother who came out of the kitchen.

Grandma took her hand and pulled her to the front of the yard. As they walked, she said, "It's just a bowl of soup. If you want to drink more in the future, come over and let me boil it for you."

Luo Yi Yi was overjoyed, jumping up and down while holding her grandmother's hand. Grandma, thank you! From now on, you are my grandmother! "

"Hehe, why don't you tell me about your father and the others? I haven't been out for years." After walking for a while, Grandma turned around and told us to follow her. "Come on, let's go to the town. I'm happy that you guys have returned."

Liu Li and I looked at each other and quickly followed.
