C24 If You Don't Shut Your Door When You Are Born You will Have a Short Life

The mountain was uneven, and Midwife Liu retreated too quickly. As she staggered, she actually sat on the ground and fell to the ground. She cried out in pain, but she still said, "No need, no need …"

Midwife Liu's appearance made me feel a little sad in my heart. Since I was young, the villagers had intentionally or unintentionally distanced themselves from me and did not want to have any relationship with me. However, I had rarely seen Midwife Liu since I was born. After a few years after I was born, she did not give birth to anyone. It was said that her health was not very good, so she had to stay at home. That was why I did not know what attitude she had towards me. Was she like the other villagers who avoided me? I just felt that she was the midwife who gave birth to my mother. I was born into this world through her hands, so I naturally felt a sense of intimacy with her. I wanted to send her down the mountain, but I did not want her to be like the other villagers who did not like to get close to me.

A hint of bitterness appeared in my heart. I consciously took two steps back and did not try to touch her again.

Midwife Liu was too old, and she fell to the ground for a long time. I was worried that she would fall and die, but I did not dare to go up to help her. I could only watch her from a distance.

Midwife Liu saw that I did not move, so she slowly calmed down. She sat up and leaned against a tree trunk to look at me.

It was too dark, so I could only vaguely see Midwife Liu looking at me. However, I could not see her emotions from her eyes. We looked at each other in the darkness for two to three minutes, and neither of us said a word. The atmosphere was very awkward.

Without knowing whether Midwife Liu was injured or not, I couldn't leave or stay. Just as I was at a loss, I heard Midwife Liu sigh and ask me, "Is Jiang Huaili back?"

Hearing her words, it seemed that she didn't know that her second uncle had returned and was looking for his corpse.

I said, "He came back a few days ago."

She didn't show any surprise or surprise, but asked faintly, "Is he well?"

Midwife Liu's voice was old and slow. It sounded empty in the quiet mountain. The feeling she gave me was that she was a friend of my second uncle. After not seeing each other for so many years, they had both aged. Seeing their descendants, she naturally asked about the situation of her old friend.

However, I had never heard that Midwife Liu had any relationship with my second uncle. Other than that time when they carried my mother.

Actually, I've always been curious. Why did my second uncle insist on entering the delivery room the day my mother was born? He was curious about what he did after entering the delivery room. He must have done something. If it was just carrying a baby, wouldn't it be enough with Midwife Liu alone?

The heavens seemed to have deliberately given me a chance to meet Midwife Liu here. Then, I took the opportunity to ask if anything had happened on the day I was born.

After making this decision, I thought about how to say it. At this moment, Midwife Liu suddenly changed the topic and asked me first, "You came up the mountain in the middle of the night. Is there anything?"

I said, "I'm here to look for someone."

Midwife Liu asked me, "Who are you looking for? Must you come in the middle of the night? You should know that the mountain is not clean at night."

I did not hide anything and told her the truth. I was looking for the village chief's daughter, Qingzhi.

Midwife Liu did not say anything, as if she was thinking about who Qingzhi was.

In fact, the people in the village who were of the same age as me basically knew about me. Because in our era, there were not many people who went to the hospital to give birth. We were basically born by Midwife Liu. We came to this world through her hands.

This time, Midwife Liu quickly remembered who Qingzhi was. She said, "That girl, something happened to her?"

Midwife Liu's words were strange, as if she knew that something would happen to Qingzhi a long time ago. This reminded me of the words that I heard from the village chief's wife when I first stepped into the village chief's house. It seemed that there was a mister who had also predicted that something would happen to Qingzhi. Midwife Liu had also expected it. How did they know?

I asked Midwife Liu, "Do you know that something will happen to Qingzhi?"

Midwife Liu said faintly, "Yes, those who are born without closing their doors are short-lived people. That girl was the one who gave birth to me. From the moment she came out, I knew that her life was not long. In fact, she should be twenty years old now. You don't need to look for her anymore. You can't go back."

Midwife Liu's words made me feel like I understood something, but I couldn't help but ask, "What do you mean by 'without closing doors'? You said that you can't go back, but Qingzhi is already dead?"

Midwife Liu said, "Birth is the most mysterious thing in the world. It is the beginning of another reincarnation cycle. After being in this line of work for a long time, we have received many children. We have learned a few things. Most of the children are born with thumbs inside and four fingers on the outside. That is the handprint of the closed door. The children who are born with that handprint are all reincarnated through formal reincarnation. It is also because of that closed door handprint that when the fetus is in the mother's womb, most of the evil spirits and devils do not dare to go against it.

And there is another kind of child. They are born by stealing. When they are born, their hands are wide open. It is said that most of the children are people who died in vain. After they die, they can't bear the long wait in the Tragic Death City and choose to wander around in the place of death, waiting for an opportunity to pull a substitute to be their scapegoat. Those children are called ghost fetuses.

Because they are reincarnated directly by ghosts, their Yin energy is heavy. When their mother is in their womb, they are extremely likely to meet ghosts and run into evil. After the birth of the ghost fetus, they are very afraid of thunder, and they can't live past twenty years old. Because every twenty years, the Yin World will conduct a large survey and find the ghost fetuses who are stealing. They will be captured and brought back.

Midwife Liu explained in detail to me, and then added, "Qingzhi that girl, when she was born, her hands were wide open."

It turned out that there were so many things to pay attention to when a person was born. It seemed that Qingzhi was in a bad situation.

"Then what about when I was born? Did I open my hands or did I pinch my hands?"

Originally, I was wondering how to ask about my birth so that it would not be so abrupt, but now that I had asked about it, I could not help but ask.

Unexpectedly, Midwife Liu suddenly stopped talking and did not speak for a long time.

The mountain was deathly silent, and the atmosphere was back to the awkwardness from before.

From what Midwife Liu had said to me, it could be seen that she was not an old lady who was not good at speaking. But why did she become so unnatural when I was mentioned? Could it be that there was something wrong with my birth?

The more Midwife Liu held back, the more I wanted to know the truth. Just as I was thinking about pestering her to ask about it, a light suddenly appeared in the distance. It seemed like someone was walking towards us.
