Forbidden City

Chapter 10 Preparing the baby's clothes

I looked back and almost screamed out of fear.is her!Ling Ziyao.I had too many questions to ask her at this time, but because of too many questions, my mind was confused, and I didn't know where to ask.

She asked again: "Where are the baby's clothes?" I recovered from my panic, stared at her and asked, "Are you the one in the amber coffin?" She didn't answer me directly, but moved forward. One step later, he asked again, "Where are the baby's clothes?"

At this time, we were only a foot away from each other, and I felt a gust of cold air rushing straight from her body, as if I was facing an open refrigerator, and my whole body was chilly.

"I haven't bought any clothes yet." I glanced at her swollen belly and asked, "Is the child in your stomach ours?"

She turned away, noncommittal.

My heart sank, is it really our child?How is this possible?I couldn't help asking again: "Are you a human or a ghost?"

"You don't need to worry about it," she said coldly, "Go and prepare the baby's clothes, she will be born in three days. Remember, prepare a set of clothes for one to five years old."

"I don't understand," I tried to calm myself, looking into her eyes, her eyes were black and shiny, like a bead like ink, and what this bead gave me was nothing but the biting cold, Nothing else.

"Go!" She suddenly lowered her face, almost ordering.

I was slightly taken aback, and plucked up the courage to say, "What's going on? I don't understand a lot..."

"You don't need to understand!" she interrupted me, almost savagely, "You just do what I tell you."

I was in a state of confusion, looking at her ice-like pupils, I replied falteringly: "Okay...okay, I'll go." I took two steps, feeling that this was too unbelievable, I couldn't help and I turned my head and glanced at her, only to find that she was wiping tears, and when I turned my head, I immediately turned my face and asked coldly, "Aren't you going?" My heart skipped a beat, why is she crying?I felt that her "coldness" was feigned.

Why would she do this?
"I'm going to prepare clothes for the baby now, but you... what about you? Are you at my house or going back to the coffin?" I asked this to make sure she was the one in the coffin.She thought for a while and said, "I'm right here, close the door and don't tell anyone that I'm at your house."

"Okay, okay..." I looked at her as I exited the room, and when I got outside, I locked the door.

I stepped on the motorcycle and drove towards the city in a hurry.Along the way, my heart fluttered, Ling Ziyao, is she a human or a ghost?Is the child in her belly really ours?How is this possible?That night, although we did our best as husband and wife, even if she was pregnant, her belly wouldn't grow so fast, I suddenly felt happy to be a father.

And, what's even weirder, she looks like a ghost.

Thinking that she might be a ghost, I trembled, and the motorcycle almost hit the stone on the side of the road.

I rushed to the city in a hurry, and according to what Ling Ziyao said, I bought a set of clothes for children aged one to five.The shopkeeper asked me if I was a boy or a girl. I was startled for a long time before I said, "It doesn't matter whether it's a boy or a girl, just take the boy's clothes."

When I went back to the village, the village exploded, and the tricycle of Ganzi came back. I heard that her daughter-in-law really had a miscarriage, and the child in her stomach was taken away by a ghost, and another two-year-old child in the village suddenly He had a high fever, and another four-year-old child also had a strange illness. His face was pale and he was shaking all over. He hid in the bed and said that he saw a woman in red standing in front of his bed last night, waving to him, and whispering to him. He said, "Come here, come here..."

It must be haunted. The village is restless and panicked.

I hurriedly opened the door of my house, and found Ling Ziyao on my bed. The curtains of my house were all drawn down, and the room was very dark. Ling Ziyao hid under the quilt, and when she found me back, she immediately sat up from the bed.I handed her the clothes, and after she took them, she took them out one by one to look at them. I stared at her face closely, the coldness on her face disappeared, and what was replaced was a mother-like tenderness and tenderness. Kindness, I wanted to question her about the doubts in my heart, but seeing her concentrating on stroking her clothes, I swallowed the words abruptly.

"Are you hungry?" I searched for a long time before I found such a sentence: "I'll get you something to eat."

She shook her head slowly, looked at me and said, "I need to stay with you for three days. After three days, the baby will be born. During these three days, you don't allow anyone to enter the house."

"Okay, okay..." I took out my phone and checked the time as I said it. It was almost ten o'clock in the morning. "A strange thing happened in the village. Last night..."

"I'm tired and want to rest, you go out." She suddenly interrupted my words, and put on a face that refused to be thousands of miles away.

After locking the door, I hurried to my second uncle's house, only to find that the door of his house was closed.The tricycle of the pole is back, and the second uncle should be back, but he is not at home, where did he go?I looked into the house through the window, and the amber coffin was gone, probably the second uncle hid it.

I went to find my second uncle, and I heard that Wu Banxian came back, and brought a very powerful Mr. Yin and Yang.For some reason, I felt a sense of uneasiness.When I came to the land, a lot of villagers came here, all gathered together, chattering.I quickly saw Mr. Yin Yang, he was only in his thirties, he was wearing a tunic suit and a pair of sunglasses, he was thinner, but he looked very refined, he was the kind who stood out from the crowd people.What I don't understand is, didn't Wu Banxian say to find his master?How did you find such a young man?
Wu Banxian looked at the entrance of the cave, frowned and said: "The entrance of this cave is so big, I'm afraid the spirits below have already come out." Mr. Yin Yang said: "Go down and have a look first." He grabbed the vine and slid down, Wu Banxian hesitated After a while, he followed suit.

Because Wu Banxian knew about the amber coffin, and now that the amber coffin is not below, he must be suspicious.I thought about it, ran home and got a flashlight and prepared to go down. Uncle Zhou blocked me and asked in a reproachful tone: "What are you doing?" I said I'd go down and have a look, Uncle Zhou said with a straight face: It's dangerous down here, you can't go down."

"Yeah, don't go down, wait until Wu Banxian and Mr. Yin Yang come up." The villagers also advised me.

Remembering that I saw my second uncle's body in a coffin last night, the more I thought about it, the more I felt something was wrong, I pushed Zhou Bo away and slid down regardless of everyone's persuasion.

Wu Banxian and Mr. Yinyang each held a flashlight in front of the seven coffins. When they heard the sound of me coming down, they both pointed their flashlights at me. Mr. Yinyang immediately asked, "Who?" Feng, what are you doing down here?" I bite the bullet and walked over and said, "This is my land, I'll come down to see what's going on."

What I mean is very clear. This is my family's territory. If I want to come down, no one can stop it.

"The land of your house?" Mr. Yin Yang frowned slightly, and shone a flashlight on my face. The light was too strong, so I quickly blocked it with my hands, feeling extremely displeased. The voice asked, "What's going on down here?"

"Hmph!" Mr. Yin Yang snorted coldly.

Wu Banxian asked back: "Is there a translucent coffin under here?" I looked around with the flashlight and asked knowingly, "Where is the translucent coffin?" Then I scanned the seven coffins with the flashlight and asked "Why are there so many coffins down here?" Wu Banxian and Mr. Yin Yang glanced at each other, and Mr. Yin Yang asked, "This is your land. Don't you know there are coffins down here?"

"How would I know? I've never come down." As I said that, I shone the flashlight on the tree above my head and asked, "Why does this tree grow upside down?"

Mr. Yin Yang didn't answer me, as if they didn't know it themselves, but I could see from his cold and confident face that there were many things he didn't bother to tell me.After all, Wu Banxian is from the same village as me, so he kindly advised: "Yu Feng, you go up, and leave the following matters to me and Mr. Ling."

Mr. Ling?Why is it the same surname as Ling Ziyao?

"Then these coffins—" I made a gesture and asked, "Do you want to get them up?"

"No need." This Mr. Yin Yang surnamed Ling said coldly: "This is a formation. Before the formation is completely broken, let them stay here, but their positions have to be rearranged." He told me and Wu Banxian said: "If you are strong enough, please relocate them according to the position I mentioned."

So, under the command of Mr. Ling, we moved the coffins and rearranged them.

Wu Banxian wondered: "These seven coffins were arranged according to the position of the seven stars, and the amber coffin is located in the middle. Therefore, the corpse in the coffin absorbs the essence of the world, the sun and the moon. Given time, it will become a monster. I intentionally disrupted the array of these coffins and moved them, why are they rearranged to look like the seven stars?"
