sleep paralysis

o didn't know what was going on from entering, and keeping those ghosts from getting out." Aunty Wu took a drag of her cigarette.She snorted disdainfully: "The old monk was also forced to do so. A hig...My older brother whispered, "Grandpa is truly ruthless. I almost rolled up my sleeves and fought him. He even thinks I'm not cruel enough... Does he think being able to come in with a white blade and leave with a red one is the only qualification to be the head of the family"

Come on, this is a peaceful world now, not the old days when grandpa was young.

The old man sat in the armchair by the window, slamming his cane on the ground forcefully: "Hmph, for so many years I haven't designated an heir, it's because I despise all of you descendants, each one weaker and more incompetent than the last!"

My brother retorted, "You can't say that. I'm not a child anymore. When it comes to the crunch, I'm not soft at all. I'm hard, really hard!"

This sounds awkward!

I gave my brother a discreet kick under the table, signaling him to stop talking.

My brother clearly ignored my reminders: "You're not willing to let go, isn't it because I haven't married and had children yet! Why are you in such a hurry Little Qiao has two little ancestors in her belly, they carry the Mu surname. You're worried about no incense These two little ancestors have bloodlines that crush mortals, aren't they noble enough"

The old man was taken aback and hurriedly asked, "Really"

I nodded. "Really, 'he' said it himself, even the baby's name is chosen."

"What's your name!" The grandfather's withered hand clenched tightly around his cane, unable to conceal the excitement in his eyes.

"When a son returns home, to the tranquil southern mountains, longing for both his return and the tranquility of the south. But how should this yearning be divided..." I looked at my brother.

My brother stroked his chin and said, "Generally speaking, girls are called Yu Gui... Or we can wait until after she's born and draw lots, let the two little ancestors decide for themselves. Whoever they draw is who they are."

The old master smiled and nodded. “Very good, very good… Since the divine has bestowed a name, I shall have no worries about the fifth generation’s incense.”

My brother scoffed dismissively: "You're worrying about nothing. You'd better think about how to get along well with your grandmother-in-law. I bought a lot of new things for both of you, why don't you try them"

The old man nodded with a smile: "I'll get it for your great-grandmother in a while."

Men talking to men, it's always the same old thing.

We quickly filled our stomachs. Then, grandpa led us to the cellar. We had been down here so many times that we weren't afraid anymore. Grandpa could even find his way to the main tomb chamber and the coffin just by feeling around.

Beneath the coffin lay the double tomb of my great-grandmother and her husband. My brother asked my grandfather if he worried about someone desecrating my great-grandmother's remains. My grandfather chuckled coldly, "I reckon anyone trying to take anything from her would have to pay with their lives."

He paused for a moment, then said: "After you become the head of the family, there are some things I need to tell you alone. When I die, I will have my and your grandmother's bodies cremated, and the ashes put together in one urn, and then... do whatever you want with it, anyway, we both will turn to dust."

The old man's voice was calm. He didn't care about any spirits, reincarnation, or afterlife.

He only wished to stay with his great-grandmother until the very end of their lives.

In the underground tomb, Tai Nana's soul slowly drifted out from the tower, gradually becoming clear and full.

"Xiao Qiao, Yun Fan…" she looked at us with a smile.

Such a gentle woman, she could actually tame my grandfather.

Even hardened steel fears the softness of a gentle touch.

"...I took them to the basement so that when I'm old and dead, they'll know how to get in." The grandfather stretched out his arms to embrace the grandmother.

In this moment, I always seem to see things incorrectly.

He didn't seem like a man in his twilight years, but rather a man full of rage yet devoted to his wife.

Grandma pursed her lips and said, "I've heard it for over sixty years! You still won't let me take a step inside. I want to see it too!"

The grandfather wore a stoic expression and remained silent, while the grandmother looked wronged and pouted.

My brother scoffed, “Grandma, you’re in this state… where do you want to go You can just walk through walls! Why don’t you just go and see for yourself what you want”

Grandma paused, shyly glanced at Grandpa with a gentle gaze that seemed to overflow with tenderness.

She pouted and said, "He won't let me look. He said absolutely no getting closer or else..."

Otherwise

I pricked up my ears, curiously listening to what came next.

"Otherwise...he would 'punish' me..." Grandmother hid her face in Grandfather's shoulder, ashamed.

……

My brother and I stood frozen, the thunder rolling like a drum, frying us both inside and out.

My goosebumps have dropped three pounds!

These two have been in love for decades! Six or seven decades, right They haven't gotten tired of each other yet!

This dog food came too strong, it's almost drowning us both!

My brother didn't know how to express himself. He rolled his eyes for a long time and muttered, "… This, the elders' dog food is imported, right One bite and I'll be sick of it for three years…"

At this moment, the grandfather did not have that doting expression on his face. He said sternly, "You can't go, wait for us here... Yunfan, didn't you say you had something to bring to Grandma"

My older brother was taken aback and immediately opened his backpack, presenting them with a treasure trove: "Grandmother, take a look! I bought several of these new-style rope-knitted intimate garments. I wasn't sure which style you'd like, so I got a few different ones. Try them on and see what you think… And these are for Grandfather too. You two can have a look and use them. If you like something, just tell Grandfather to let me know, and I'll go buy more."

Great-grandmother was too embarrassed to speak. My brother put these things into Grandpa’s empty coffin, and Grandpa let go of his wife, leading us towards the ear chamber of this tomb within a tomb.

The inner ear chamber has a tunnel, what did my grandfather dig it into

It's no wonder the backyard is a slope, it's directly dug into the mountain!

We used our phone flashlights to illuminate the path. The deeper we went, the heavier the atmosphere felt, and I couldn't help but ask, "Grandpa, are there ghosts here"

The old man's footsteps faltered, and he glanced back at us.

Under the harsh white light of the flashlight, his sneer looked terrifying. I couldn't help but shrink behind my brother.

"Ghosts You were born in the Mu family, and you're afraid of ghosts" He turned and continued walking forward, reminding us, "The path behind the door is narrow, be careful not to fall."

Behind the door was a very short dirt road leading to a small room across from it. The road was narrow because a large pit had been dug in it. We shone our flashlight into the pit, and it was white inside.

Some are animals, some are humans.

"Grandpa, this is—" My scalp tingled, I shrunk behind my brother's back. Could this be Grandpa's karmic retribution

“During times of chaos, so many people wanted to kill me. They ended up here as a result. Some even tried to betray me, and they were also brought here. Even... some coveted your great-grandmother, hmph...” He let out two cold laughs.

That's probably why he didn't want Grandma to come here, huh

"You must keep this a secret, because everything the Mu family has accumulated over the years is here. In this peaceful world, if any of these things were to be sold, it would cause a huge problem. Let them remain asleep for now." He pushed open the door to the cellar.

Inside were some coffins, and piles of antiques like little mountains.

Within the gate are mountains of gold and silver, outside the gate lie bleached bones filling ravines.

My brother swallowed hard and whispered, "This is enough for us to eat for ten lifetimes..."

Before I could even turn around, a sudden wave of icy cold swept across the back of my neck. It startled me so badly that my whole body trembled. Just as I was about to scream, two strong hands grasped my waist and steadied me.

Jiang Qiyun frowned in displeasure. "Why are you so afraid of me"ders have always had only one path: death's end!" The Great Corpse King's raspy voice boomed.He then let out a strange, eerie laugh: “...even his own kin! The last traitor ended up at the bottom of th...
