C28 (1/2)

In fact, I am not surprised at all about grandpa becoming a paper man, because grandpa was originally a carpenter, and later became a craftsman, living off paper man.

But what I don't understand is, why does Grandpa want to paste paper man in the ward?

At that time, even my Second Uncle didn't understand. He only observed that Grandfather used a lot of things to play with it, and in the end, he stood up with a head full of sweat, gave the paper man to my Second Uncle, and walked out of the hospital wrapped in bed sheets.

After going out, grandfather said that we should find a place without people and burn the paper man.

My Second Uncle asked him, what were you doing just now?

Grandfather said that he used ”Raise Flowers Into Trees” to extract the soul of the fetus from the womb, attach it to the paper man, and put the little boy's soul into the embryo.

Second Uncle did not say anything, but he felt that something was amiss.

On the way back, they found a place with no one to burn the paper man.

Looking at the raging flames, Second Uncle asked my grandfather, is this not fair to him?

Grandfather said, don't worry, although I extracted its soul, the purpose of the paper man is for it to accept reincarnation, so we can also reincarnate. Furthermore, the Kuma Clan is in such a terrible situation, even if the child is born, he will not have a good life. I think that any family where the child is randomly reborn is better than this family.

Second Uncle nodded his head, as if he agreed with his grandfather's words.

Grandfather and Second Uncle could be considered to have made a comeback, and the little boy could also be considered to have perfectly accepted the reincarnation cycle.

Unexpectedly, something happened the day after they returned.

Early in the morning, Second Uncle received a call from the hospital in Aggra, asking if the Second Uncle was Ku Ma's family?

Second Uncle said yes.

The hospital said that the patient might be born soon, but there will be massive bleeding before the birth, so I hope that Second Uncle can hurry over.

Second Uncle hung up the phone and was about to rush to the hospital, but he was stopped by his grandfather.

First, he said, it was a long journey, and it took too much energy. Second, this woman has nothing to do with us.

The Second Uncle said, but you were the one who planted the soul of the fetus in her body.

Pappy said that even if she's bleeding badly, it has nothing to do with the soul. It can only be her personal reason, so there's no need for us to go over there anymore.

After an intense mental struggle, Second Uncle decided to give up on going to the hospital.

On the night of the second day, the Second Uncle dreamt that the little boy would come back to find him. He told the boy, covered in blood, that reincarnation had failed, and that the woman was about to die.

Second Uncle woke up from his fright, but after waking up, there was nothing.

But the next night, he once again dreamed that the little boy was wandering around his house. Second Uncle asked him: ”Are you unable to reincarnate now?”

The boy nodded helplessly.

Second Uncle was afraid that something might happen if this went on for too long, so he asked the little boy, if he put you in silver, would he agree?

The boy nodded again.

Afterwards, the Second Uncle went to find a co-operative craftsman to help him create the ”The World is a cage” silver pendant, and put the little boy's soul inside.

Second Uncle originally thought that this matter would end here.

However, his grandfather died a few days later. When he died, his eyes were wide open, and he refused to rest in peace.

The Second Uncle doesn't want us to see this, because he knows that this is called dying with grievance, and we Chinese people all avoid this kind of thing.

He thought of many ways, to no avail even if he asked Samit for help. In the end, there was really no other way, he forcefully sealed Grandfather's eyes with 502 glue, so when we rushed over to Grandfather's funeral, we didn't find anything abnormal.
