C15 (2/2)

I immediately retorted, ”Grand Matriarch, don't joke around. Soo Soo has been with me for so many days. Although she mostly spends most of her time with me at night, she sometimes comes out with me to see sunlight.”

Almost every time, Soo Soo would make an appointment with me at night. Even if she was with me during the day, Soo Soo would never take the initiative to stand under the sunlight. In my impression, Soo Soo's face would always be facing the shadows, fearing that some light would shine on it.

It seems that this old lady is right, but I still don't understand why Soo Soo didn't kill me when she was an undead, and why she still had to take the white silk which I hung from my neck.

I told the old lady the question in my mind. Either I believed her completely or it depended on what she said.

The Grand Matriarch said that if the living corpse were to take away the items she killed, its cultivation would greatly increase. As the saying goes, return to your original owner. When Soo Soo died, her soul would be hanging on top of it.

”Power?” Did you watch too many TV dramas? She's just an ordinary girl, what kind of power could she possibly have? ” I asked, looking at the nanny in bewilderment.

The Grand Matriarch shook her head. Her eyes seemed to be filled with disappointment at me.

”I said that power is her Yin Spirit. She has gathered all of her soul and three souls and six souls together, especially since she's a dead woman. Her mana is very strong now, so it seems that she'll be difficult to deal with her in the future.”

I really don't believe the Grand Matriarch's one-sided story. After all, I didn't see Soo Soo with my own eyes.

She slowly untied a red cloth from around her waist. The red cloth was about the size of a fist and seemed to contain some kind of small object. Trembling, she took out a needle. The white steel needle shined brightly in the sunlight.

To my surprise, the Grand Matriarch stuck the steel needle into her left thumb and slowly pulled it out. The next moment, the blood on her thumb fell to the ground.

Just as I was looking on doubtfully, the big black dog in the yard also discovered the blood. It seemed to be very interested in the blood on the ground.

See?” I am a living man, not a dead man. Only a living man can bleed, and my blood has a human taste. The dog's nose is the most sensitive.

I know it hurts, but I still don't understand why Soo Soo didn't kill me. It seems like right now, the grandma isn't a ghost, she's really a human.

I told the Grand Matriarch about my doubts, but the Grand Matriarch only sighed.

I didn't expect that this ghost girl would still not forget you. Perhaps she was moved by your help to escape from the Zhao Family, otherwise, her body would have been sealed in a coffin that day, and her soul wouldn't have escaped.

The Grand Matriarch's words were like thunder striking, and for some reason, my mind buzzed. What I did with Soo Soo was obviously a little obscure, so I didn't expect her to be right.

I embarrassedly said, ”Grandmother, you! How do you know that Soo Soo and I are husband and wife?

I looked at the grandma in astonishment. The grandma's shriveled face actually had a hint of pink. She shook her head and pointed her right index finger at my stomach.

”The combination of you and the undead has long absorbed a lot of yang energy. The reason why she didn't suck you dry was because she had feelings for you. She didn't believe that if you touched the bottom of your right rib, you would feel a needle-like pain.”

The Grand Matriarch's words were as if she was coaxing a three-year-old child. In my impression, my ribs have never been injured, so how can it hurt?

I laughed at the Grand Matriarch for being a little nervous, but I still doubted her, so I did as I was told. I pressed my right hand lightly against my ribs, and felt an unbearable pain.
