My father and I both looked at my mother, lost for a moment.

Bright red blood ran down my mother's legs. At first it covered the surface of my mother's legs, but more and more, and soon the ground was dyed red.

My mother hugged her stomach, probably because she was in so much pain that she couldn't make a sound.

Then blood began to seep through the gaps between her fingers. I don't know if I was seeing things, but I kept getting the feeling that it was mixed with dark red.

I don't know if it was due to the method that the little old man gave me. After all, so many days had passed.

My dad reacted first and hurried over to help my mom up. Then, he bent down to hug my mom and loudly said to me, "What do you have to look at? Hurry up and call for my nanny Wang!"

My father often hit me. I was very afraid of my father, so when he shouted at me, I subconsciously thought that he was going to hit me again. I quickly turned around and ran towards Wang Da Niang's house.

Auntie Wang is a person from our village who knows how to deliver babies.

He ran over to Wang Da Niang's house and told her about my mom's situation. Auntie Wang said, "Being old (not good)!" "Eating eight (possibly) means premature delivery!", immediately together with me to run to my home.

After Auntie Wang and I arrived at my house, we immediately rushed to my mother's room. When my father saw Auntie Wang, the nervousness on his face relaxed by quite a bit.

He said to Aunt Wang, "Big Sis Wang, hurry and come take a look. See if she is preterm or not!"

Don't worry, don't worry about anything. Don't worry about it. Auntie Wang said to my dad in a hurry.

At the same time, he was looking at the imprints of the blood on the floor and in the room, muttering to himself.

After my father came out, he glared at me and said, "Hurry up and listen to your Aunt Wang. Go and boil some hot water. I'll call your second aunt over to help."

I cringed and ran back to the kitchen.

He sat in front of the stove and threw the firewood sticks in his hand into the hole.

Was it really some old man's way of doing things? What should I do if it's really premature? Doesn't that mean that if I really have another brother, then my life would be even worse! Think about what a miserable life it would be for Ergou ever since he had a younger brother.

I feel lucky that I won't need to act like Ergou in the future!

At this moment, the sound of boiling water came from the pot, so I stopped thinking about it. Since it was already like this, I had no other choice but to wait and see.

"Child of a melon, are you done boiling the water!?" My father came into the kitchen and yelled at me.

I timidly replied and pointed to the pot in my hand. I said that it was ready to be boiled and that I could start scooping it up.

He ignored me, scooped up a basin of boiling water and added cold water, and left the kitchen with another basin of water.

I stood alone in the kitchen, not knowing what to do. Then I just took a couple of steps and sat down on the threshold of the kitchen and looked at the door to my mother's room.

My father and second uncle were squatting at the entrance smoking cigarettes. My father went to call second aunt over to help. Second Uncle probably came over with them. Our family has the best relationship with second uncle's family in the village, so we usually go to any other family that has something to help with.

At this moment, my father was happily chatting with my second uncle about what to call a child after birth. I sat there by myself and no one noticed me. In my impression, that was the first time in my life that I felt lonely.

At this moment, my mother suddenly shouted. My father and I stood up and looked into the room. No matter how anxious we were, we could only wait for news. It was a rural rule that women who gave birth to children could not watch.

Following that, Auntie Wang and Second Aunt, who were helping from inside, both called out at the same time. Second Uncle also stood up at the same time.

Following that, Aunt Wang and Second Aunt suddenly ran out, their faces full of fear.

His father asked him what had happened. The two of them stammered, unable to speak. Aunt Wang just kept waving her arms and kept gasping for air.

I just noticed that Aunt Wang's hands were covered with something black. I don't know what it was, but it made me feel scared when I looked at it.

At this moment, Aunt Wang finally caught her breath and said to my father, "I really can't solve this. Quickly go to the neighboring village and find that barefoot teacher named Li. He can do it. If you're late, I'm afraid someone's going to die!"

"What exactly happened? Why don't you first explain it to me!" When my father saw Aunt Wang's appearance, he also became anxious.

Auntie Wang could not refuse my father, so she waved both of her hands in front of my father and told him, "Did you see that woman's baby blood is black?" I'm afraid you've met some dirty old thing. Listen to me, hurry up and find that Earth Doctor. It's not far, you'll need less than 20 minutes to go back and forth by the small path.

No way, I can't do this today, it's very unlucky, I have to leave first. After saying that, this nanny Wang, who didn't pass the delivery technique, abandoned us and left in a hurry.

"Bro, don't worry. Hurry to the neighboring village and find that teacher that Big Sis Wang mentioned. Sister Xue Lan (My mom's name) and I will help you look up (look) it!" Second Uncle patted my father's shoulder and said.

Without another word, my father turned and ran back up the hill to the path that led to the next village.

Then my second aunt reluctantly walked into my mother's room at the urging of my second uncle.

Second Uncle was squatting on the ground again and puffing on his pipe.

I also know that my mother wasn't born prematurely. That Old Man didn't lie to me back then, and his method really worked. Otherwise, it's impossible for my mother to bleed black blood.

Thinking that my younger brother was going to die and that my mother would treat me well in the future, I didn't get beaten up too much because of this. I even started to look forward to it.

Second Aunt would come out every two or three minutes to retch for a while before returning to the room.

My father is finally back. The person who was following him with a tattered bag on his back is the Earth Doctor that Aunt Wang spoke of.

I know this Earth Doctor, he is already forty to fifty years old, and he is the only one in the family. He opened a small medicine store in a town not too far away, and even during the day he didn't open the door to do business.

I also heard from the elders that he had studied Taoism for a few days and then somehow became a doctor without even a business license.

However, the majority of the villages were not rich, and no one visited those large hospitals in the county. They could only see this doctor here, since it was a minor illness and there would not be any deaths. But no matter what disease it is, as long as we go to look for him, they will all be cured. Thus, as time goes on, he has gained some fame in our region.

At this time, people's lives were in danger, so I didn't care about the rules anymore. My dad quickly brought him into my mom's room, and I followed him in.

Inside, I saw what the room was like: black water everywhere, on the floor, on the bed, on the mattress, even on the floor, no! According to Aunt Wang, this was all my mother's blood!

Will anything happen to my mother? I couldn't help but have this thought as I quickly looked towards my mother. At this moment, my mother's hands were also covered in her own blood, but wherever she grabbed onto, there was also blood on the pillow. Her hair was already stuck together by the black blood that was stuck together with her sweat.

The puddle of black blood on the ground was extremely eye-catching. The room was dark, the windows were not open, and the atmosphere in the room was eerie.

However, my mother was still talking weakly to my second sister-in-law, which made me feel a bit more at ease.

Doctor Tu's surname was Li. Although he didn't have a medical license, anyone who invited him over would address him as "Dr. Li" out of respect.

Without waiting for my father to say anything, he made some weird movements with his right hand that I didn't understand, then held it over my mother's head and slid it down as if he were scanning something.

Although I've heard the rumors about him, I've never seen him before. I've also been suspicious of him, but this Earth Doctor is way too weak! Was there a need for a doctor to treat a patient without taking a pulse?

Could he be a swindler? I whispered my thoughts to my father.

I didn't expect that just as I said that, my father slapped me on the head, stared at me, and scolded me for being an unfilial son.

I felt so wronged that I didn't even know what I said wrong, and my father hit me again.

"The child is so young, don't hit your head. You'll have to raise him if you're stupid."

Doctor Tu calmly said to my father without looking back. My father laughed but said nothing.

"You two go out first, I have something to say to their family." Doctor Tu said to my second aunt and second uncle.

Although I don't know why, my Second Uncle and Second Aunt still went out.

Then it was just me, my dad, my mom, and Dr. Tu left.

"Dr. Li, what's going on? "Hurry up and treat her — why don't you say you don't want it after what has happened?" My father sounded very anxious.

Doctor Tu sighed and said to his father, "I'm a person who doesn't like to talk in a roundabout way. Let me be frank with you, your wife is under the influence of an evil old man and has been infected by a parasite. This Gu will not take effect until seven days later, and today is the seventh day."

My heart leaped to my throat. This Earth Doctor really has some ability. Otherwise, how could he have known it with just a glance?

My mother seemed to still be in extreme pain and didn't hear what Doctor Tu said. However, my father was stunned on the spot and when he saw Doctor Tu he asked, "Dr. Li, what did you say just now? I didn't hear it clearly. Say it again! "

"The evil technique in your wife's body originates from Miao Feng's Gu technique, it's called 'Soul Subduing Technique'. The person who cast the technique uses his own blood as a primer to forcefully lock down the soul of the child who has yet to be born. The child will die before she is born, and with an extremely heavy grudge, she will absorb your mother's spirit inside her womb. Do you think that I have offended anyone? Otherwise, they would use such a vicious method to take revenge on you! "

This time, it wasn't just my father who was stunned. After hearing this, I felt like my brain was going "Boom!" With a loud explosion, what he just said was, "One corpse, two lives!"

Is my mother going to die too!
