On one side, the picture shows that this strange phenomenon has yet to be resolved, but on the other side, the person has actually called out his grandfather. On the other side, the photo shows that this strange phenomenon has yet to be solved, and on the other side, he actually called out his grandfather.

”Master Ma, I will have to trouble you to make another trip!” When she was calling out to Xiuqin, she had already arrived beside her grandfather and said this to him in a low voice.

Grandfather didn't say anything. He lowered his head to look at the picture that I handed to him. His expression was extremely ugly. After a long time, he hoarsely said, ”I understand.”

”Yin-Yang Appearance, the trouble this time is not small!”

Grandfather and I were following behind the woman. After hearing Grandfather's low sigh, I turned my head to look, only to see Grandfather's hunched back with one hand on my shoulder and the broken wooden box hanging on my shoulder raised up high. It seemed to be especially heavy, as if his waist was already bent.

So I whispered to my grandfather, ”Why don't I carry it?”

”It's not time yet.” Grandfather rejected me without hesitation. Although he was looking straight ahead, his face was so serious that it looked as if it was about to drip water. Other than hearing his heavy breathing, everything else was uncomfortably quiet.

Grandpa was still holding the picture of the grinded flower in his hand. As he kept swinging his hand, it made me dizzy. Suddenly, I had a feeling, could it be that I was the one who caused this disaster?

”Clang!”

A long bell rang out, ringing for eleven times in a row. It was already eleven in the evening, but I wasn't sleepy at all. I stared wide-eyed as I entered the main hall with my grandfather.

The ice coffin was still surrounded by no family members, and they were coldly placed in the middle of the hall. The soul discs hanging in the surroundings were rustling in the cold night wind, and the hall was extremely quiet. When Grandfather and I appeared in the middle of the hall, everyone's gazes were fixated on us, silently watching us.

This kind of feeling made me extremely uncomfortable. I turned my head to look at the front and saw that the portrait standing in the middle of the hall had actually fallen down. It was lying on top of the Spiritual Altar, covered up by the items placed on top of it.

When I saw this, I immediately thought to myself, ”What are these family members doing? If they don't have anyone to help them with the portrait, it would be outrageous.”

”What's going on?” Grandfather tilted his face as he asked the person who went to report.

”Remains... ”There's a problem with the portrait.” The person lowered his head, not daring to look forward as he said in a low voice.

”Bastard.” I curled my lips and secretly despised him in my heart. Afterwards, I walked towards the Spiritual Altar with my grandfather, but after only taking two steps, I started to unconsciously panic, as if there was some man-eating beast behind the Spiritual Altar, waiting for my grandfather and I to deliver it to my doorstep.

”Grandpa,” I called him softly.

”What are you shouting for, hurry up and follow me!” Grandfather didn't even turn around as he shouted from where he stood.

When I saw that my grandfather was about to scold me again, I had no choice but to grit my teeth and follow him. I saw that my grandfather quietly arrived in front of the altar, respectfully offered the incense, then bowed three times and turned to me.

”Oh.” Although I was unwilling, I still saluted obediently according to grandfather's appearance. After that, I approached the spiritual altar together with grandfather and watched grandfather extend his hands to slowly pick up the portrait.

Although I was afraid, I was more curious. I stretched out my neck to take a look, but because my grandfather's arm was blocking me, I could only see a little bit of it.

However, from my grandfather's face, I can tell that this problem is really big.

This was the first time I had seen his expression since coming to the funeral home with him.

Seeing that my grandfather didn't say anything for a long time, under my intense curiosity, I hefted my foot and also slowly moved closer. At the same time, I glanced at the portrait that passed by my grandfather's shoulder.

However, just that one glance made my entire body numb and I was unable to move. In fact, I even forgot to move my eyes as I stared at the image in a daze. It was as though someone pointed at my acupoints and I was unable to move.

He saw two lines of blood trickling down from the corners of the dead man's eyes. When they reached the corners of his mouth, for some reason, they split into several smaller red lines, eventually forming a strange outline. At first glance, it looked like the person in the picture had a slight smile on his face.

I immediately sucked in a breath of cold air as my heart chilled to the extreme.
