en suddenly realized, "Oh, oh, you mean your husband from the underworld!"From the UnderworldThe Underworld!I jumped to my feet.From the Underworld...right, he doesn't seem human...ugh, my head hurts....In my memory, some things are very vague.
Over time, all I remember from my childhood are Father's pedantry and stubbornness, and Master Brother's severity and affection.
I don't really remember this woman.
She was a weirdo, hardly ever taking on the responsibilities of a wife and mother.
She also doesn't live at home, her whereabouts are uncertain, her father often travels to practice medicine, it is unknown whether they have contact, but he hardly ever appears at home.
How could this situation possibly be happening right in front of me
Blood will tell.
She walked towards me step by step, my eyes had already adapted to the darkness. By the moonlight reflecting off the skyscrapers, I could see a figure similar to mine, and... a face.
This doesn't match the image in my fragmented memories. I feel like I've seen her before, but I can't recall her features.
If you want to describe her objectively, she has a youthful appearance for her age.
She looks to be in her twenties!
According to my age and piecing together what my father has said, she should be around forty years old.
However, the maturity in her eyes, eyebrows, and lips was not what one would expect from someone in their twenties.
"Xiao Yinluo, surprised" Seeing that I didn't react for a long time, she smiled and took two more steps forward.
I instinctively backed away, forcing a tough tone and saying, "What are you talking about There's no way your mother would kidnap her own daughter! You must be mistaken."
Her eyebrows twitched slightly, and she smiled, "This kidnapping didn't dare to hurt you in the slightest. Look, you're still wearing a coat. Du Ruo was even worried about you getting cold."
Bah, this can't hide what you did, it's kidnapping.
“Even if you're my mother in name, taking me from home against my will and keeping me here is kidnapping! You better not let Jun Shixiong find out, he'll definitely get you! Even if you are the shi-niang!” My heart was pounding, and for a moment I didn't know how to threaten her.
Perhaps children have a natural "weakness" in front of their parents. Besides harming themselves, they don't know how to threaten the person who gave them life.
"Junior Brother You speak of that child Hahaha, that child looks imposing, but he's actually very soft-hearted. Using him to scare me, do you think it's useful" She chuckled lightly, "Perhaps he's made some progress these years, but he's just like your father, making decisions easily is not his style. By the time he decides to go against his master, it will be too late, hahaha."
I was stunned: "What do you want to arrest me for What does 'it's too late' mean"
She smiled mysteriously, spreading her hands before me and saying, “......I'm here to protect you, silly child.”
My father once said very seriously that the wife of the Yin family was surnamed Xue and was a distant relative of my ninth senior brother.
Remember, your maiden name is Xue and your given name is Huai Meng. Please don't get it wrong on the family information form next time!
"Humph, I don't even remember what they look like, so why are they filling out family contact information"
My sister obediently filled out the form according to Father's instructions, but I deliberately wrote "Jun Senior Brother" in the mother column.
Junior Master, though young, has already started acting like a caring older brother. He finds himself quite helpless about it.
My father, such a pedantic old scholar, always quoting classics and waxing poetic, how could he possibly end up with such a beautiful and rebellious wife
I never understood their love story. My father should have married a sensible and capable wife, not someone who's always away from home with an unknown whereabouts.
But looking at this "Ms. Xue"'s face, indeed a raised eyebrow, a curled lip, very charming.
She has the beauty of youth and the charm of a woman.
"Can't figure it out That's okay, I can tell you some things. These are things you probably wouldn't understand your whole life if no one told you..." Ms. Xue winked at me and beckoned with her finger: "Want to know Then come with me."
"Good." I immediately nodded in agreement.
As long as I get out of this house, Mu Wanchen should be able to find me.
If she doesn't take me out, I'm going to have to "resort to force" and run away.
Unbeknownst to him, she turned and walked into the room, pulling out a few talismans and muttering under her breath.
The black lines of the magical array on the ground were like embers rekindled, suddenly spreading to the walls and ceiling.
In the center of the formation, a hazy mist appeared. She bent down and pasted talismans on the eight directions of the formation to stabilize the mist. The mist gradually became clearer, forming a portal the size of a doorway.
"Come on, little girl, let's go see your grandma."
I look at this hazy mist, where would I dare to go in!
And Old Man never said his wife knew how to open a dimensional channel! That's something only someone with extremely high cultivation could do. Not to mention the immortals from the ninth heaven, at the very least she'd be a Earth Immortal, right Does she have that kind of ability
"Don't just stand there, hurry up! We can only maintain this for a minute. If you have any questions, we'll talk later." She unceremoniously walked beside me and grabbed my arm, pulling me inside.
As I stepped into the room, my foot landed on a black sigil inscribed with arcane script. My heart hammered in my chest, and I struggled frantically to pull back.
"I'm not going with you, to your grandma's place Can't you just take the regular road Who knows what kind of creepy place is across there!"
She gave me a cold smile that sent shivers down my spine. "A spooky place Well said... you'll see for yourself!"
Then, without warning, she kicked me in the groin. I lost my balance and stumbled forward, right into her reach. She pushed me with all her might, sending me flying into the mist-shrouded ring of light.
It felt like being pushed into ice water.
Such a method is completely different from the one Mu Wanchen opened.
It wasn't transcendental cultivation or magical prowess that he relied on, but rather fixed-position talismans and formations.
The sudden coldness took my breath away, followed by a gust of cold wind blowing in my face.
The cold made me shiver. I looked up at the house in front of me.
Where is this place How can there be a dark and ancient manor here
It looked like the house of a wealthy landlord from the old times in the countryside, with sporadic insect chirping all around.
I'm just an ordinary human, I'm really afraid of falling into a den of demons and monsters.
Ms. Xue came out from behind me, and drew a talisman, the wisp of mist dissipated quickly.
She smiled and said, “Girl, don’t think anyone will come to save you. Every corner of this place is filled with talismans, and you have no idea how many powerful arrays are hidden here… I can’t do large places, but for a simple three-hall house like this, I can still protect it.”
I feigned calmness and snorted, "Don't be too dramatic. You're being evasive, aren't you Afraid of being found With your strange ways, you're definitely not a good person..."
This old house was pitch black, looking deserted and lifeless. If it weren't for the two lanterns hanging in front of the main hall, I would have thought it was a haunted house.
A haunted house... Just thinking about it sent chills down my spine.
Could this "Ms. Xue" really live here She looks so well-made up and fashionable, she wouldn't live in such a rural place, would she
The old house had a unique woody smell, coupled with the scent of earth at night. What should have been a peaceful and harmonious atmosphere was rendered eerie by the two crimson lanterns.
"Is anyone living here..." I looked at Ms. Xue with disdain.
Ms. Xue raised an eyebrow, before answering, a ball of gently leaping "flames" drifted from the corner gate in the backyard and floated towards me...in Yanhuan suddenly spoke, "I thought you'd open your mouth and ask about 'him' right away.""Is it useful" I smiled wryly. "He hasn't shown up yet, there must be something unexpected."During the day,...
