”Tell me, where should we bury the Grand Matriarch?”
In the end, I had to disturb Yin Ling because I didn't know anything about feng shui techniques. I didn't dare to find a random place to bury her, so I asked Yin Ling.
”Buried on a mountain in front of us!”
Yin Ling opened her mouth and spoke to me. Then, she fell silent once more.
Although I wanted to ask Yin Ling why I chose that place, seeing her this way, the words that were about to reach my mouth made me swallow it back down. I really couldn't bear to disturb her again.
In any case, Yin Ling wouldn't go harm the grandma. Since she said she would be buried there, she might as well go up and take a look.
The mountain wasn't high, but it wasn't low either. I climbed for more than an hour, and of course, the main reason for that was because the Grand Matriarch and I were injured, which caused my speed to slow down a bit.
”Grand Matriarch, I originally wanted to bring you back to your home, but after so long, I still don't know where your home is. Moreover, you've been tired for so long, so I don't want to see you suffer any longer. Do you like this place?”
That's right, after so long, I don't even know where the Grand Matriarch's home is, but in the end, she lost her life for me.
At this point, my eyes moistened, and I couldn't help but shed tears.
Perhaps I will never be able to repay what I owe Grand Matriarch in this life. Right now, besides inheriting the Mysterious Scripture that Grand Preceptor has left me, the only other thing I can do is to avenge her.
I knew that the grandma wouldn't say anything. I held her in my arms and looked around. Even though I didn't know much about feng shui, I could tell that this place could be considered to be a good place.
”Grandmother, you can stay here from now on! ”Don't worry, I won't leave you here alone. I'll come back to see you every year and I definitely won't let you feel lonely. I still want to hear you continue to scold me.”
I gently placed the Grand Matriarch on the ground and said softly.
After saying that, I picked up a relatively sharp stone from the side and started to dig. Due to the fact that I couldn't find any tools, just digging a grave for the Grand Matriarch took four to five hours. It took me nearly five hours to finish digging it.
In the end, I let her go. After all, when someone dies, they must bury the dead in peace, and I don't want her to die without peace. I built the grave with my hands, one by one.
After doing all this, I finally couldn't hold on any longer and sat down in front of the grandma's grave.
Tired, heartbroken, all sorts of feelings welled up in his heart.
I never thought that the Grand Matriarch would suddenly leave. In the past few days, I have long since treated her as a relative of mine.
From the initial loathing, curses, doubts, to today's deep conviction, my feelings for the Grand Matriarch gradually changed. However, from the start until now, everything she has done was for my sake.
Now, I accept the Grand Matriarch, I trust her, but she is gone.
I regretted not being able to protect her. I regretted hurting her. I regretted not being able to save her at the last moment.
