Resist the world, but I spread the curse

Chapter 257 Black Jade and Diary

Although Fang Mu felt regretful and heartbroken for not being able to save Fang Jingjing, Fang Mu's decision to agree to Fang Jingjing's last request can be regarded as a complete repayment for the Fang family's kindness.

However, what no one expected was that the Fang family's tragic fate did not come to an end.

When Fang Mu found the hometown of Fang’s brothers and sisters, he found that the old man had passed away for more than half a month. It turned out that the grandfather of the two elders had a heart attack because of his emotions after learning that his granddaughter was seriously ill and was in danger. The grandmother, who was also weak, also died of her wife and died next to her, and was only discovered by the villagers after more than a week.

Now the family home of the Fang brothers and sisters has long been occupied by relatives Qiu, and everything in their home has been cleaned up. It has long been unknown where the garbage truck has been sent. It seems that there is no place for their family in the world.

The only thing to be gratified about is that their family can finally be buried neatly next to each other and buried together.

The fate of this family makes Fang Mu feel embarrassed, and being unable to repay their family has become a knot in Fang Mu's heart that cannot be resolved.

Fang Mu received Fang Jingjing's relics in the rented house in the city, including the box that Fang Jingjing said to give him that could only be opened with that ancient key.

The box is not big, about the length of a forearm. It is made of paulownia wood that is painted black. It shakes gently. There are many hollow spaces inside and there are noises. It seems that there is something famous inside. If you look at the black box carefully, It was a little scary, because the more it looked, the more it looked like a small coffin.

He opened the small box with the key left by Fang Jingjing, and what Fang Mu saw was half a piece of black jade, and under the black jade was a palm-sized diary with a cowhide cover.

Before flipping through the diary, Fang Mu first checked the half of black jade curiously, presumably it used to be a part of a jade pendant, and the pattern on it was probably some kind of toad and frog, but the weird thing is that this piece of jade was overly carved on the toad and frog The fineness is unbelievable. The fine particles and large protrusions on the body of the toad frog are all carved with precision. Because the texture of jade is soft and smooth, it feels as if you are touching a piece of real skin if you don't pay attention. Petting the unknown toad frog creature.

Fang Mu once asked a friend to send it to a jade research institute for identification, but it was identified that the formation time of this jade pendant can be traced back to more than 5000 years ago.

It is undoubtedly a great discovery that such a piece of jade pendant that far exceeds the carving skills of the era appeared in the barbaric legendary era when the working tools were underdeveloped.

Fang Mu's friend at the research institute excitedly expressed the hope that Fang Mu could keep this jade pendant in the research institute to continue researching, and maybe use this to find the ancient civilization that they once had in the land of the Shenzhou region.

However, Fang Mu still rejected his friend's request. After all, this black jade was a relic left by Fang Jingjing's father, and he did not want to use it to make a name for himself.

Putting down the black jade, Fang Mu felt that the touch of the toad and frog pattern on the black jade still remained on his fingers. When he picked up the cowhide diary again, he felt as if everything he touched was the touch of toad and frog skin, and his heart was a little hairy.

And next, Fang Mu will deeply regret his act of opening this old diary, because the contents inside made him turn pale with shock the moment he saw it.

Opening the diary, the yellowed pages and mottled stains inside tell the traces of the passage of time to the person who opened it. Turning to the first page of the diary, Fang Mu’s breath is also the second when he sees the words. stopped.

The pupils in Fang Mu's eyes were rapidly changing between dilated and shrunk. After suffocating for a while, he suddenly became short of breath. He didn't pay attention to what was written in the diary, but quickly flipped the pages, jumping from the beginning to the middle, and then to the end. , Jumped back a quarter, a fifth, and finally felt weak all over, and fell down on the sofa in the living room with a pale face.

The handwriting written on this diary is actually the same as my own... Even the habit of forming words and making sentences is surprisingly similar.

How could there be people in this world who not only have handwriting, but also writing styles that are so similar.

But Fang Mu is sure that this diary must not be his own, because he has never had the habit of writing a diary since he was a child!

Faintly feeling that he seemed to have encountered some kind of absurd and treacherous event, Fang Mu's heart burst into a voice, anxiously urging him not to read any more, but to burn the diary directly.

Don't look anymore, can't look anymore!
And human curiosity is like a snowball rolling down from a high mountain. Once it starts, it will never stop, and it will only get bigger and bigger.

Fang Mu tremblingly turned the diary back to the first page of the diary, which wrote: On June 1992, 6, the weather was fine, and I finally chose to get married, with someone who could be my mother.My wife looks very moving in her red wedding dress today. Under the witness of her parents, she and I were married like ancient people. She asked me in front of the bed in the bridal chamber if I was happy, and I lied to her with a smile.

On June 1992, 6, my wife and I lived with respect and respect as guests like an ordinary couple. Our days were simple and happy. Today, my wife cooked a pot of fish for me who came back from working overtime at the newspaper office, and I ate all of it.When we were taking a shower together, she hugged me and told me that life should continue to be happy like this.I listened to the sound of frogs croaking outside the window, and I got goosebumps. I hope she didn't feel my abnormality.Today, I also lied to her again.

On July 1992, 7, my colleague Lao Zhang asked me how I felt in the first month of marriage, and I said I didn't feel much.He also made fun of me for not being able to do anything, saying that the full moon of your son will be memorable in the future, and the full moon of your husband and wife's newlyweds will also be memorable. If you understand romance, you should prepare some good wine and food tonight, and even if it is not good, you will get a whole gift. go back.I didn't understand these things, so I asked him for advice.Lao Zhang is very good at eating and drinking. He recommended me that there are a lot of shops selling frogs in the market on Shinan Road. Although it is not the season to eat frogs, the frogs in the market are plentiful and fat, and the selling price is cheap... I didn't listen.My wife also often buys vegetables at the vegetable market on Shinan Road. When I came home tonight, I found that she had cooked a sumptuous dinner, and I gave her a bouquet of roses I bought.I glanced at the table, there were no frogs on it, and I thought my wife probably knew I was afraid of them.

On July 1992, 7, I ate a lot for dinner today. My wife saw that I hadn’t eaten at work at noon, and asked me why. I didn’t hide it from her, and said that my work had frogs today.My wife didn't say anything after hearing this, and went back to the kitchen to add another dish of farm fried pork.

On September 1992, 9, I haven’t written a diary for a while, because the business of the newspaper office has boomed, and my workload has also increased. After I was immersed in the busyness of life, I didn’t seem to hear the sound of His approaching again. That's great.By the way, thankfully, the wife is pregnant.
