He told people that I was the grandson of his first lover. When he broke up with his first lover, his first lover was pregnant with his son. After the first lover gave birth to his son, he didn't tell him, but raised the child alone.
The first lover originally hoped to rely on this only son to provide for his old age. Who knows what will happen unexpectedly? Soon after the son grew up and became a family, both husband and wife died in a car accident, leaving only a newborn baby.
Her son and daughter-in-law both died, and her first lover was badly hurt and died soon. Before she died, she entrusted her grandson to my grandfather.
Grandpa's fictional first love was called Xiao Soul, so he named me You Xiao Soul, saying it was to commemorate his nonexistent first love.
And I must honestly call him "grandpa".
The story mentioned above was told to me by Aunt Zhang, the nanny invited by Grandpa. Every time I finish this story, she will say to me meaningfully: "Little soul! It's not easy for your grandfather to raise you alone. You should be filial to him when you grow up, you know? "
"It's okay to be filial to him, as long as he doesn't let me catch' good brothers' anymore."
"Good brothers" is what my grandfather called them when I saw them after I was sensible. Because I was born after people had intercourse with ghosts, I was particularly sensitive to these things from the moment I was born. According to Grandma Zhang, I often cry in a dark corner for no reason and always surprise her. Later, my grandfather gave me a piece of Yu Pei to take away, and things got better.
But grandpa is very unkind. He didn't want me to end my life lightly. When I was three years old, he took me to the cemetery in the dead of night, and then took my Yu Pei.
As soon as the jade pendant left my body, an old man with long hair and beard on the ground immediately caught my eye. I saw him sitting on the nearest grave, grinning at me. At that time, when I was young, I didn't know why my grandfather smiled at me, except that his smile was terrible. In just a few seconds, I was scared to cry by this old man.
"Wow ..."
Grandpa saw me in tears, instead of comforting me with distress, he showed an excited look: "Little soul, did you see anything?"
"there!" I pointed to the grave and said with tears, "There is an old man there. He looks terrible! Grandpa, will you get rid of him quickly? He must be a bad guy! "
"Don't be afraid, little soul, that old man is not a bad man, but our' good brother'!" Grandpa coaxed me into saying.
"'good brothers'?" I stopped crying and looked at grandpa doubtfully.
"Yes, we are' good brothers' with him, just like the relationship between cats and dogs." Grandpa pretended to admit, "little soul, you know, there are many' good brothers' in this world who are different from us." When we see them, don't drive them away at will, okay? "
"I know, grandpa. You mean, we want to be friends with them. " I said naively.
"Not to be friends with them, but to supervise their behavior like brothers." Grandpa said, "If they are naughty and cause harm to others, we must teach them a lesson and let them know that it is wrong to do so." Little soul, do you understand? "
"I see, Grandpa."
This is the first time I really know ghosts. Later, as I grew up, I began to know more about "good brothers", knowing that they were not only our "good brothers" as grandpa said, but also particularly cruel and often killed many people.
Once, Aunt Zhang and I went shopping and saw a female "good brother" with seven holes bleeding and wearing red clothes pushing an old woman into the middle of the road, causing her to be killed by a fast-passing truck. I saw it at that time, and immediately rushed over angrily and grabbed her. As a result, she was torn to pieces because of too much force.
"How did this happen?" When that woman's "good brother" vanished in tears and could no longer be formed, I couldn't help but be afraid. "Aunt zhang, why? I just gave a hand to' Good Brother'. Why can't she return to her original shape? "
Aunt Zhang knew that I was born with the ability to see ghosts, but because she had no eyes of yin and yang, she couldn't see anything during the whole process of "tearing" a woman's "good brother", so she couldn't help but comfort me: "Don't worry, little soul! Don't worry, little soul. Let's go back and ask your grandfather Isn't it clear? "
Under the repeated comfort of Aunt Zhang, I quietly followed her to find my grandfather directly.
Grandpa went back to work in the paranormal group because he wanted to support me, so when Aunt Zhang told Grandpa what happened today, other members of the paranormal group exclaimed in succession.
"This child has gone too far! I can tear a spectre alive without borrowing any equipment! "
"yes! I've only seen hand-tearing devils in anti-Japanese dramas before, but I didn't expect this guy to hand-tear ghosts! "
Finally, even my steady grandfather joined in praising me: "Yes! Little soul, you really didn't let me down. You inspired such a powerful ability to destroy ghosts so quickly. "
"Grandpa, do you know that I was born with this ability?" I asked doubtfully.
"Of course. Because I know your life very well. " Grandpa said, tell me the story of my parents and how I was born.
"The life bred by human-ghost intercourse belongs to one of the few human-ghosts in the world. The so-called half-man, half-ghost, is to have a human body but the ability of evil spirits. If someone like you joins the paranormal group, it will definitely be even worse! "
"Grandpa, I still don't understand." I said, "If you know that I have this ability, why do you want me to be friends with ghosts and call them' good brothers'?"
"Because not all ghosts should be killed." Grandpa caressed his gray beard and said, "In all the cases I have handled, most ghosts are kind and innocent, and only a few ghosts who have committed heinous crimes need to be eliminated." If I don't let you be friends with ghosts, I'm afraid you'll work in the paranormal group in the future, and you'll kill all the ghosts involved indiscriminately. "
"I won't." I immediately said, "After what happened today, not only will I not start work on ghosts, but I will not join the paranormal group!" " "
"Why?" Grandpa said in surprise.
"Because what happened today is really terrible for me!" I said, "Grandpa, you don't know what it's like to be a' good brother' and disappear completely before your eyes. I will never experience this feeling again! "
"no!" Grandpa said with a serious face, "You must join the paranormal group, or I will break up with you!" "
"Grandpa, why did you force me?" I said with grievance.
"Because you are not an ordinary person." Grandpa said: "The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. Since you have extraordinary ability, you must use this ability to serve the world! "
So, under the pressure of my grandfather, I was forced to participate in all kinds of strict training in the paranormal group at the age of sixteen. Four years later, he officially became the youngest member of the paranormal group.
