My life in the medicine furnace has been on track, and my mother-in-law has never been there. When I was eight years old, I was able to see some minor illnesses of wind and cold for the patients.

That day, Mr. Long was making dinner, and a very strange person came to the medicine furnace. Half of his face was so festered that he couldn't see clearly. I called Mr. Long several times. Mr. Long took a look and then pulled me a distance. This punishment will not fall. I will come."

Hu Zhi just realized: "It's you? The dead Taoist priest?", he was much farther away from that person, and Mr. Long pulled me and bowed: "I dare to ask who is the master? I didn't even realize it when I entered my medicine furnace."

The man was wrapped in a black cloak tightly, and a stench radiated all over his body. Hu Zhi was packing the medicinal materials in the yard and came over to check it out. The man was excited when he saw Hu Zhi's emotions. He stretched out his hand. He had his fingernails very long and went straight to Hu Zhi. Hu Zhi reacted and was so flexible that he could dodge. Several people rushed to the yard like this. Hu Zhi said in shock: "Who are you?"

The man said, "Stinky Fox, I have been suffering a lot in the past two years in order to kill you. God has not killed me. Now it seems that you are going to die."

Young Master Long protected me behind him and said angrily: "Spread wildly in my medicine furnace? You are so brave."

The man laughed and continued to attack in a daze. Young Master Long and Hu Zhi also stepped forward to fight, but he bypassed the two of them and ran straight towards me. I had no magic and couldn't dodge, so I was pierced by his nails in my chest. Before I could react to the pain, I couldn't speak. A clear voice suddenly appeared in my mind: "The contract started."

I seemed to see a gray piece, and my hands strangled the Taoist priest's throat, like pinching a chicken. Until the Taoist priest no longer had any breath, the gray in the dream gradually dissipated. The Taoist priest fell to the ground, and my chest was healed. Young Master Long hurried over to check my injuries, and the Du Grandma also flew in. The Du Grandma stood in the middle of the yard and said to me: "Chunqing, your contract with Hu Zhi has been started. You two are one now."

I blurted out at the same time as Hu Zhi: "Mrs. Whole mother-in-law, what's going on?"

The mother-in-law said: "Hu Zhi, you accidentally suffered Chunqing's blood that day. Now, Chunqing was killed, the life and death contract you signed that day was started. Chunqing was not dead, your contract was started. You and Chunqing are now one of life and death. If one of them dies, then die together."

I lowered my head and didn't know what to say, Hu Zhi asked again: "Mother-in-law, is there a way to relieve it?"

The mother-in-law shook her head: "Unless it is death, it cannot be lifted."

Hu Zhi lowered his head, and after a while, he said to me, "Forget it, girl, you have to practice well and protect yourself now. Don't let me suffer my life."

I had a question in my heart and asked, "Mother-in-law, who are you?"

The mother-in-law smiled and said, "Silly girl, I am the mountain god's mother-in-law."

Young Master Long also smiled and stood beside Grandma Du said, "Xi, you can take good care of Chunqing."

The mother-in-law walked up to me and stroked my head. As soon as I got her shoulders high, she said softly: "Girl, you are the child of human beings and God, so you can make a contract with the spirit beast. Your parents are forced to do so. Since the ancient gods disappeared, the love between God and human beings has not been allowed. Your parents were killed by the constraints of the Heavenly Palace, and you were thrown into this mountain."

As soon as I suddenly realized, she continued, "You are going to inherit my position as the mountain god. I am too old. Although the constraints of the heavenly palace are numerous and complicated, the gods need to be trained to ascend the throne but have not changed. Chunqing has suffered a lot in this world."

I was a little scared. Young Master Long squatted down and was as tall as me, and said, "Mother-in-law, I will teach her well. Little girl, don't feel hatred in your heart. I hope you understand that you are free. Your parents sacrificed their lives in exchange for your freedom. Do whatever you want."

That day, the expression in Mr. Long's eyes was very complicated, as if it was worrying and joyful, and I couldn't see through it.

After the mother-in-law left, Mr. Long picked me up with one hand and said, "Do you have anything to say?"

He watched me smile gradually. His smile was very warm, like the sun. I felt a lot brighter and smiled, "I know I am not a child that no one wants, I am very happy."

Young Master Long nodded with satisfaction and said, "You can call me Brother Xi in the future." I also nodded obediently.

And it is true. I don’t hate my parents. As Brother Xi said, I am free, and I think they are free, and it is already a miracle that I can live, so how can I hate them?

Hu Zhi was full of worries, Brother Xi put me down and asked Hu Zhi again: "What do you want to say?"

Hu Zhi glanced at me and sighed helplessly: "My entanglement with this little girl can be considered a conclusion. Young Master, can you ask for something?" Brother Xi nodded and signaled her to continue.

Hu Zhi looked into the distance and said, "If one day I want freedom, would you choose to help me?"

Brother Xi said without hesitation: "No,"

Hu Zhi didn't expect that Brother Xi would speak so decisively, and he lost his words for a moment. Brother Xi pulled me into the house. The food that day was obviously very familiar, but I had a different state of mind.

The next day, Brother Xi woke me up early in the morning and asked me to follow him to visit the hospital. He said, "The family I visited today gave birth to a child, and today, I will demonstrate myself. Next time, you will do it yourself." Although I was unwilling, I still agreed first.

We walked there. Brother Xi said that in this world, we should not use magic frequently, but I am very familiar with the mountain road.

He began to say to himself: "When I first came to the medicine furnace, I walked here. There were bones of wild beasts in front of me. I met Hu Zhi and Taoist priests there."

Brother Xi frowned as if something big is happening: "I think something else will happen. Yesterday we didn't pay attention to the Taoist priest. He must have run away. The beast bones you mentioned just now are a big deal. My Lingsen magic has never been passed down. This Taoist priest has practiced such a tragic magic. Alas, the heavenly clan is getting worse and worse."

I could understand the hazy thing halfway, so I walked quietly.

Brother Xi scolded me for a while and asked me again, "Are you tired? If you are tired, I will carry you."

I wiped the sweat from my forehead and said with a smile: "I'm not tired."

We arrived at the family after noon. The pregnant woman had not given birth yet, so I wondered: "Brother Xi, this pregnant person has not had a childbirth reaction yet. What should we do?"

Brother Xi casually drank tea and replied: "Any pregnant person who has been diagnosed and treated in our medicine furnace, I have told them a specific delivery time. When they get the time, they will go to find me in advance. After all, this place is far away today. If you have a delivery reaction, you will invite it, which will increase the danger. I will teach you these things slowly in the future."
