First person
My name is Lu Youyou. I heard from the villagers that my grandfather found me dying in a mass grave on the Ghost Festival, July 7th. It was he who snatched my life back from the hands of the King of Hell.
Grandpa is a well-known fortune teller in the village. However, since he picked me up, his behavior has been weird.
The talismans he drew were only sold for a penny each and were never sold to anyone in the village.
But whenever someone is willing to spend a penny to buy a talisman, grandpa will leave home for a while, not knowing where he is going.
When I was three years old, my grandfather accidentally discovered that I was born with yin and yang eyes and could see things that ordinary people could not see.
After the news spread, people in the village urged my grandfather to teach me his fortune-telling skills, but my grandfather refused.
The peaceful days passed quickly, until one day, a nobleman came from the city. He took out a penny and bought his grandfather's talisman.
Grandpa looked solemn, called me to him, and warned: "If grandpa fails to come back after going this time, I will go to the next village to find Granny Ma on the seventh day of July."...
I like it very much [laughs]
