The Eight Trigrams
"The Yinyi appears in the mortal world once every twelve years, and she is looking for someone with a heavy grudge to become the next ruler of the underworld." Uncle said, and the blue light beside me slowly faded away.
I asked Uncle, "Have you seen a female ghost?"
"Uncle nodded at me, 'We met once, fourteen years ago.'"
"I counted on my fingers, 'Fourteen years ago, I was six years old, it was the year Uncle Ah took me in.'"
It's strange that the memories of fourteen years ago are gone, I've forgotten things before I was six years old. Uncle said so, and I always feel like this yin po has some kind of relationship with me.
Uncle said that the yinpo appears only once every twelve years, why did I see the yinpo twice in these two years, could it be that the person I saw was not the yinpo that Uncle talked about?
Uncle was also puzzled by my doubts, in my heart, Uncle is all-powerful, but at this time seeing Uncle frowning, I felt a wave of panic, the first panic that appeared beside Uncle.
As Uncle An entered the living room, he said, "I also find it strange. If the person you saw two years ago was really a yinpo, then what about today's..."
Uncle looked at me with a gaze that seemed to recall something, his eyes became somewhat tense, and his expression changed rapidly, his eyebrows furrowed even tighter together.
Seeing Uncle's change in expression, I felt a chill on my back and moved closer to him.
I pulled his sleeve and called out softly, "Uncle."
Ahui came back to her senses and looked at me, tapping my nose tip, "It's nothing."
I leaned on Uncle's shoulder, and I'm not afraid as long as I'm with Uncle.
A'ji turned back and smiled at me, "Silly girl, it seems I have to teach you some skills, otherwise you won't even know if you've been cursed."
I leapt up from Uncle's shoulder, "A curse? When was I cursed and which audacious little demon dared to put a curse on me? Doesn't he fear that Uncle will capture him?"
"Ah, it's just an evil spell cast by a wicked woman," Uncle said with a light smile.
If it were a little ghost, I could still follow Uncle to catch and play with him, but when I heard that Uncle said it was a yinpo, the spirit medium who dominated the vengeful ghosts, I retreated again, and could only sit silently beside Uncle.
"Uncle said, 'The yinpo wants you as her successor.'"
"But Uncle said that the successor must be a vengeful ghost with a heavy grudge, could it be that my past life had a deep grudge."
Uncle wanted to say something but stopped, turned his head and looked at me, then hugged me in his arms, "No, your past life had no resentment."
Looking at Uncle's smile, as bright as sunshine, I smiled at Uncle and asked, "Uncle, do you know my past life?"
He just knocked on my head and said I was a little devil.
Uncle said that when he just came back, he saw green light in my eyes. The green light was left after the witch cast a spell on me. That's why Uncle drove me out of the peach wood chair like this. He also said that I wasn't deeply cursed, otherwise I would have lost half my life and even he couldn't save me.
After listening to Uncle Ah, I felt a strong dislike for the old woman who cursed me to death at 18 and again at 20. I don't like her, in fact, I detest her, but what's even stronger is my fear of her.
After I saw the fortune teller, Uncle seemed to have worries recently, and he pushed away all the scheduled appointments. Anling's phone calls never came again, or maybe they did, but Uncle didn't let me know.
Because Uncle Ah also stopped calling me and Lin Jia Gongzi to meet up.
It wasn't until two years ago when Lin's young master was scared on Wutong Road that he didn't dare to get close to me for half a year. Later, I don't know which nerve went wrong, and after the second semester of junior year, he often called me.
I'm too lazy to bother because I have an uncle.
The first time I saw the little ghost raised by Uncle Ah was three days later, this was my first real encounter with a ghost, and I had no idea that he would soon be closely tied to my fate.
