Chapter 16 Bane

Yunji was surprised when he heard the village chief's words.

"They are my parents after all. This revenge must be avenged."

"No, they are probably not your real parents." The old village chief hesitated and said, "Because there are no biological parents in the world who would have the heart to bury their children alive..."

The old village chief's voice was like thunder.

"Buried alive...why?" Yunji's eyebrows were tightly knitted, and the sword spirit in his heart began to hum.

He always believed that his parents died in the demonic disaster sixteen years ago. He could endure the loneliness and loneliness of the orphans, and the grief and sorrow of his parents' death, but he could not imagine the scene of being buried alive by his parents.

That's too incredible.

The old village chief said bitterly: "I originally planned to keep this matter in my stomach, but it seems I should have told you earlier. Boy Yun, come with me."

The old village chief used his cane to part the grass, walked toward the forest, and led Yunji to a mountain col facing north.

There is little sunlight in this mountain valley, the ground is covered with fallen leaves, and it is very desolate.

The old village chief squinted his eyes, searched for a long time, pointed to an old tree with a crooked neck and said: "This is the tree, here it is."

"Village chief, what's here?" Yunji was puzzled.

The old village chief pointed to the foot of the tree and said, "You'll find out if you dig it up."

Yunji dug suspiciously with a bone knife, and dug a full five feet deep before he found something.

It is a wooden box, not big, one foot square, made of excellent material, and filled with gold, silver and jewelry.

"This is..." Yunji became more and more confused.

"Eighteen years ago, a couple fled to our Qingyu Village with an infant child. I took them in because they looked pitiful. Later I learned that this family has a rare surname, Yun."

The old village chief was tired from walking, so he sat under a tree, looked at the deep hole dug, and said with complicated eyes: "They are relatively stable after living in the village. The men are hard-working and the women are skillful. It is not difficult to do some work to feed their children."

, I thought this couple was a good couple, but unexpectedly one night..."

In the old village chief's memories, the scene back then seemed to be right in front of him.

That night, the old village chief couldn't sleep and was restless, so he planned to go out for a walk. However, he happened to see the couple surnamed Yun sneaking away from the village with their child and wooden box in their arms.

The old village chief felt strange and followed him.

Following them to the deserted mountain col, they found the two stopped under a crooked tree and started digging a hole.

The old village chief was puzzled. He went out to dig a hole so late at night and took his child with him. Could he be hiding some treasure?

The old village chief hid aside calmly, planning to see what the couple was going to do.

Not long after, the pit was dug, and the two placed the wooden box in the pit. Then some disagreements arose, and the old village chief managed to hear a few whispers while using his neck.

"Bury him. He is a curse. Only when he dies can everything be settled."

"What if we are traced by the master's family? We will not escape death."

"If you don't tell me, who will know? Everyone in the master's family is dead."

"What if there are still people alive? What will we do if they find us in the future?"

"We are just servants of the house. We cannot bear this great trust. We are in more danger while he is alive. We have buried these jewels without touching them. It is worthy of the master's family."

"Okay... I listen to you and bury it."

After hearing the end, the old village chief suddenly realized that what the couple wanted to bury was not only the jewelry, but also the infant child.

Seeing the two men sending the baby into the bottom of the pit, the old village chief flew into a rage and shouted, almost frightening the two to death.

"That's a living person! Are you going to bury it?"

The old village chief stepped forward, pointed at the two of them and said angrily: "I know you have the last resort, and I don't ask where you are from or who your enemies are. Since you live in Qingyu Village, you must abide by the rules of the fishing village and take care of your children."

Catch it up, you won’t feed me!”

At the old village chief's scolding, the couple felt ashamed and pulled the infant child out of the pit, but the wooden box was buried deep there.

From then on, the two lived together for two years, no different from an ordinary couple, and the old village chief never asked about their identities until the monster attacked and the two were killed by the Black Pig King.

It's an old story. The old village chief originally planned to keep it in his belly and hide it from Yun Ji for the rest of his life, because the experience of being almost buried alive by his parents is a terrible shadow for any child, but the old village chief didn't expect that Yun Ji

He went to his parents' graves and fought to the death with the Black Pig King, and then told what happened back then.

"No wonder, no wonder they never look back..." Yunji said to himself sadly.

It turned out that they were not the biological parents, so how could they be the real flesh and blood of the child who could be buried alive?

The past events told by the old village chief also untied a knot in Yunji's heart. It was precisely because they were not biological flesh and blood that the two of them ignored Yunji and ran away for their lives when the monster attacked.

"The root of the problem, Master, it seems that my life experience is not ordinary."

Yunji returned to normal. His mentality was far from ordinary. After all, he was a man who had died once. The fierce sword spirit had not only sharpened his physical body, but also his state of mind.

"With so much gold and silver jewelry, how can it be from an ordinary family?" The old village chief grabbed two priceless pearls and looked at them. He felt a little relieved after saying this.

Yunji rummaged through the wooden box and found a jade pendant from the deepest part.

The jade pendant is mottled and average in color, and seems to be the least valuable one. However, the strap is exquisite, woven with gold threads.

Gold wire and mixed jade, either the owner of this jade has a brain problem, or this jade has something special.

Yunji took the jade pendant in his hand, looked at it for a while, nodded and said: "Ye Ming Jade is quite valuable, there should be words on it."

Unlike luminous pearls, luminous jade cannot shine in the dark. This peculiar material has a special characteristic. It requires moonlight to reveal its authenticity. It is easily ignored by people who do not know how to do it. Its value far exceeds that of pearls, and it can be said to be priceless.

Another use of luminous jade is to hide characters.

The so-called hidden calligraphy is to hide the handwriting that has been carved in advance.

The writing on the luminous jade cannot be seen during the day, and can only be seen under the moonlight at night.

After recognizing the luminous jade, Yunji concluded that there were words on this jade pendant. What words they were could only be seen at night when the moon came out.

"If you feel unwilling to do so, go find your family members. Maybe you can recognize your ancestors and return to the clan." After the old village chief finished speaking, he regretted and said, "If you can be called a curse, I'm afraid you will be implicated. If you really want to find out your life experience, you might be able to find your ancestors."

If you are involved in a crisis and meet some bad people, you will be in trouble."

"Village Chief, I'm not Xiaoya. I'm a bad person. How can I be as bad as that black pig?" Yun Ji said with a smile.

"I know you are a powerful kid, but no matter how powerful you are, you are still a child in my eyes! Just like Xiaoya." The old village chief said stubbornly.

Yunji had no choice but to pick up the wooden box, support the old village chief, and walk towards the village.

"This is a lot of money, and it can build a two-foot-high wall."

"This is your money, Mr. Yun, I don't want it."

"The village can live peacefully only if the wall is high. Qingyu Village is also my home. Since the village chief doesn't want it, I'll keep it all."

"You kid is so mean. In the past, you always gave in twice. Why do you give in once this time? No, no, you keep half and build the wall with the other half."

"Okay, okay, let's hire people tomorrow to turn our village into a turtle shell that no one can chew on."
