"My grandma doesn't want me to go to the imperial city." Seeing that he was hesitant to speak, I immediately said, "Grandma said that Shengjing is too far away, and a girl can just stay at home to support her husband and raise her children."
After saying that, I couldn't help but sigh.
Bai Junran showed a forced smile: "Shengjing is indeed far away, and the imperial city is definitely not accessible to ordinary people. She does it for your own good."
Bai Junran turned out to be the same as A Nai, who kept secrets about Shengjing Imperial City.
Whenever I mention Shengjing Grandma, her face turns pale and her lips turn purple, while Bai Junran's eyes are gloomy, and she doesn't know what she is thinking about.
Seeing how serious he was, I didn't dare to say anything.
The carriage drove on the road for six days. The closer it got to the village, the colder the road became.
Originally, when I went to the pavilion in front of the stone monument at the entrance of the village, I could see several uncles smoking pipes and chatting.
I poked my head out of the curtain, but there was no one in the pavilion. When I entered the village entrance, I found that the village was completely silent.
I dismissed the coachman, got off the carriage, and walked towards my home.
Along the way, I kept looking around.
Every house has its doors closed? What's going on? It's clear day and there's no one in the village. It's really weird.
Before I could finish thinking, I had already walked to the door of my house, raised my hand, and opened the door. Just as I was about to call my grandma, a strange smell hit my face.
This smell is all too familiar to me now. It is the smell of blood. I have been drinking raw blood from Grandma for a long time.
"Grandma? Grandma!" When I smelled this smell, I immediately had an ominous premonition, and then I shouted and ran towards the house.
"Grandma?" I searched all over the front hall and backyard, but I couldn't see any trace of Grandma, but I discovered something extremely strange.
Originally, a big hole was dug in the backyard where Grandma was buried, but Grandma was not in it.
Moreover, on the edge of the big pit, two fingers suddenly fell.
"Ah, ah, ah, grandma?" Looking at that finger, my throat instantly tightened.
Those are grandma’s fingers. Her fingers have been exposed to cinnabar and medicinal materials for many years, and the nails are reddish brown. Moreover, there is an old knife edge on her index finger. That was when I was very young, and she carried me on her back.
I went to the mountain to collect herbs and was focused on me, so I accidentally scratched it.
"Grandma? Grandma!" My tears instantly rolled down my face, and I began to search frantically for Grandma in every house.
But there was no sign of her at all in the house.
So, I ran out of the house again and searched from house to house.
As a result, the entire village disappeared out of thin air.
There were no corpses, but there was a fishy smell in every house.
This fishy smell made my heart sink a little bit.
"Grandma! Grandma, where are you?" I finally collapsed and collapsed on the ground, crying loudly.
"Amiao? Amiao!"
Bai Junran's voice sounded at this moment, and I hurriedly shouted: "Jun, please help me look for her. My grandma is missing, and everyone in the village is missing."
Bai Junran appeared in front of me, and the black aura on his body had faded a lot.
He looked around the village, then stretched out his hand to help me up from the ground.
"Your Majesty, can you find them?" I looked at Bai Junran and regarded him as a life-saving straw.
"The smell of blood is so strong, everyone here must be here?" He lowered his foggy blue eyes, glanced at me, and did not continue.
