chapter 2 Blood cannot be given

by Salome 14:30,Nov 15,2023


I woke up with a fright and lost my sleep. I put the jade pendant aside and got up to go downstairs to get some water. But I always felt like there was someone following me, but when I turned around, there was nothing.

I think I was frightened and it was just a dream, making myself suspicious.

I returned to the room and looked at the jade pendant on the bed. Thinking of the dream I just had, I took the jade pendant and started studying it.

This jade pendant is very old, dark green, and a little dirty. It is engraved with Tai Chi and Eight Trigrams patterns. It is cool and not hot at all.

Does this thing really have the effect of warding off evil spirits?

I studied for a long time but couldn't find any clues. After thinking about the pleading voice in my dream and my father's instructions, I still put the jade around my neck.

My parents got up very early and started working at 5:30, but I wasn't asleep yet, so I simply got up and wanted to help them, but I didn't expect to hear them chatting. Driven by curiosity, I hid aside and secretly listen.

"Husband, do you think we should tell An Kaiyo An about her blood? She is already eighteen.". "

My blood? I curiously moved to the bathroom, where I was closer to my parents and could hear them more clearly.

"An Kaiyo An, that girl will be fine as long as she wears the jade pendant. No matter how slow it is about her blood, she is still a child after all."

I'm an adult, but I'm still a child in my dad's eyes.

Also, what happened to my blood, and why did my mother suddenly mention it?

"I'm eighteen." My mother sighed. "Since Kaiyo An turned eighteen, I have become more and more uneasy. I think it is better to tell Kaiyo An earlier. Only when she knows can she protect herself better."

Dad sighed and started smoking a cigarette, "Honey, I'm sorry for you. If you hadn't married me, you wouldn't have lived like this with me."

"What are you talking about now? Let's just Kaiyo An a daughter. As long as we protect her, no matter how difficult it is, it will be worth it for me to follow you for the rest of my life."

My mother's words made my nose sore. The reason why my mother only gave birth to me was because my great-grandfather demolished the Snake Temple and stewed the big snake. He himself was retaliated for the evil things he did, which affected future generations.

It has been two generations since my grandfather arrived.

Fortunately, my father's generation is fine. I think they have had enough revenge. After all, the Snake Immortal Temple has been rebuilt.

"I will protect An Kaiyo An." My father seemed to be saying this to my mother, but I always felt that he was talking to himself.

My mother suddenly burst into tears and choked, "Why An Jovie An? An Iryna An doesn't dream of snakes, but An Kaiyo An in my family dreams of snakes."

An Jovie An, An Iryna An is the daughter of my grandfather's brother's son. She is my cousin, one year older than me and two years older.

After my grandfather's brothers died, our family basically stopped communicating with each other. Later, my Paternal Uncle ​​all went to the city to do business, and their lives were prosperous. Except for my two cousins, all of them A son was born.

My dad said that my Paternal Uncle and the others had always been in contact with the descendants of the Feng Shui Master before my great-grandfather. He said that it was because of the Feng Shui Master skill that he was able to achieve today’s prosperity and wealth.

I still don’t understand why my grandfather died miserably even though he didn’t eat snake meat, and why snakes surrounded our family when we left the village. I asked my parents, but they didn’t say anything.

"Dad, Mom."

I shouted, and my mother quickly lowered her head to wipe away her tears. When she looked up at me, her usual smile was already on her face.

"An Kaiyo An, why did you get up so early today? Mom will make you breakfast."

My mother hurried into the kitchen, and I walked up to my father and looked at his rough face. In fact, he was only in his forties, but he was so old that it made people feel distressed.

"Dad, I have something to tell you."

Dad took my hand and sat aside, "An Kaiyo An, did you just eavesdrop on my conversation with your mother?"

I nodded and was about to ask when my dad interrupted, "An Kaiyo An, you should carry the jade pendant that dad gave you with you and don't lose it. Your grandfather said that the debt owed will eventually be paid off. Wait. Once we pay it off, we can live a good life.”

I nodded, thinking about telling my father about the strange things last night, but seeing his comforting and encouraging look, I couldn't bear it.

I wanted to ask about the blood, but my dad suddenly said to me, "An Kaiyo An, from now on, try not to bring any male classmates when you bring your classmates to dinner."

"Why?"

Dad patted my hand and said, "You are still young. If this gets out, you will get a bad reputation."

I laughed dryly and said, "Dad, what are you thinking about? I don't fall in love early. They are all here to eat."

In fact, I just wanted to attract some business for my family, but seeing the worried look in my father's eyes, I agreed. As for the blood matter, my parents avoided the topic and didn't give me a chance to ask.

After school today, I didn't take my classmates home for dinner, but I was stopped by my cousin An Iryna An outside the school gate.

She is tall, fair-skinned, long-legged, and looks great. She is dressed in a fashionable style and is a rich girl.

"Kaiyo An, my dad asked me to come to you and ask for a tube of blood."

An Iryna An held a syringe, and I subconsciously stepped back.

"Cousin, I am weak and cannot draw blood."

In addition to asking me to carry the jade pendant with me, the most important thing my dad told me was not to let anyone take your blood or hair. Because there are many crooked people who will use other people's blood and hair to do bad things.

When I was young, my Third Paternal Uncle once secretly came to my house and wanted to catch me and draw my blood. Fortunately, my father arrived in time and had a fight with my Third Paternal Uncle. My Third Paternal Uncle’s head was broken.

My dad said that if the Third Paternal Uncle dares to do this again, he will be killed.

My parents mentioned blood this morning, and now my cousin suddenly appeared again, and I realized that things were not simple.

I saw the syringe in my cousin's hand, and I was wary. The Third Paternal Uncle was really determined to give up. This time it was my cousin who came, but no matter who I asked, I would not give her the blood.

An Iryna An had a bad temper. When I rejected her, she looked impatient. She walked up to me, grabbed my hand, and tried to draw my blood with a syringe. I struggled hard, but An Iryna An was very angry and raised her hand to throw it away. I slapped me and pulled my hair like a shrew, "An Kaiyo An, if you don't want to die, you'd better let me draw blood."

My hair was being pulled and it hurt, but I tried my best to avoid her syringe. Seeing her focusing on drawing my blood, I stepped hard on her feet. An Iryna An was wearing high heels. He hugged his feet and jumped away in pain.

"An Kaiyo An, stop right there."

I ran away, but after only a few steps, several people stopped me.

I recognize them. In the past, Third Paternal Uncle would take them with him when he returned to the village.

"An Kaiyo An, I just want a few drops of your blood, why are you so stingy."

An Iryna An walked towards me. When she saw me dodging, she looked impatient. She waved her hand and ordered in a cold voice, "Catch her and draw blood."

Looking at the bodyguard walking towards me, I became more and more frightened.

Seeing that the bodyguard was about to touch my hand, I used all my strength to push hard and ran away, but was caught by the other two.

"Draw blood."

An Iryna An was already angry. I was caught and couldn't struggle away. Looking at the syringe on my arm, I closed my eyes in fear. Suddenly, the hand holding my arm suddenly loosened, and I heard An Iryna An scream in fear. : "Drive them away quickly."
