Grandma Ji listened to Ji Mingxia’s whispers, and although she tried her best to hide her emotions, her eyes still became moist.

A few years ago, the always peaceful Banana Leaf Village suddenly had two charred corpses and two missing people, causing the entire village to be on edge.

The police investigated for several months, but no results were found. When they saw that the village was calm again, they reassured everyone that the two corpses might be of some roaming homeless men that happened to have an accident in the village.

After that, surveillance cameras were put in the village so that the villagers’ minds were put at ease.

Although people did not say anything on the surface, their hearts were full of vigilance, for fear that the accident might happen again.

Even though there weren’t any more deaths in the next few years, the whole village was plunged into an extraordinarily spooky atmosphere.

When the ghost knocking incident broke out, everyone immediately realized that the whole Banana Leaf Village was being targeted.

At first, people wanted to resist, but it was as if the ghost knew what they were thinking and it didn’t give them the opportunity to resist.

The surveillance equipment couldn’t capture the ghost so the villagers called the police. Once the police entered the village, calm was immediately restored in the village

They were unable to use scientific means, so some villagers hired a *goddess.  Unexpectedly, the goddess fainted from fright that night. When she regained consciousness the next day, she immediately got up and left, refusing to step into the village after that.

*Goddess, also known as the shipo is a woman who prays for people’s blessings and disasters, draws talismans, cast spells, does divination etc. as a profession

Outside forces could not help Banana Leaf Village, so the villagers could only rely on themselves.

After everyone’s efforts, they soon guessed the whereabouts and purpose of the ghost. The abnormalities of the Zhou family mother and son were also quickly brought to light.

However, they couldn’t take the Zhou family mother and son on.

The village full of the elderly and weak women and children was in Zhou Tao’s control, no one was his opponent.

Once Zhou Tao was annoyed, he would even attack and directly suck the villagers’ family members that lived outside Banana Leaf Village.

There was a high school boy who learned about the things Zhou Tao was doing and he decided to sneak into the Zhou family house in the middle of the night. He wanted to steal the idol, but Zhou Tao discovered him.

Zhou Tao did not do anything on the spot but a week after returning to the town school, the boy suddenly looked twenty years older, causing a sensation in the school.

After being sent to the hospital for examination, the doctor finally concluded that the child had progeria.

The incident ended without a hitch because there was no evidence. The child had been in school before the phenomena happened, and there was no life threatening situation as the boy only aged prematurely. 

Zhou Tao’s move to kill the chicken to make an example of the monkey left the villagers shocked.

The villagers knew that Zhou Tao was evil, and Zhou Tao needed the villagers’ longevity to prolong his life so they eventually reached an agreement. They were willing to be Zhou Tao’s “food”, and Zhou Tao had to promise not to attack the villagers’ young and strong family members outside.

It was at this time that Grandma Ji learned that Ji Mingxia was gay.

She was shocked and angry, and tried to persuade Ji Mingxia to break up with the unreliable “Ke”. However, she did not want Ji Mingxia to come back to the village so she thought of a solution that would kill two birds with one stone. She managed to create a bad relationship with Ji Mingxia because of “Ke”, and that way, she would show her stand against the relationship, and Ji Mingxia would have a legitimate reason to reduce the frequency at which he returned to the village.

After going to high school, Ji Mingxia would only go back to Banana Leaf Village twice a year and that was during the summer and winter vacations. In addition, he would only stay for half a month at most.

Because of their poor relationship, Ji Mingxia would lock himself in his room to watch the computer or play with his cell phone once he came home, completely refusing to communicate with Grandma Ji.

He didn’t even eat at the same table with Grandma Ji, and was even less likely to help her buy food. Ji Mingxia wouldn’t even look at the supermarket when passing by, and because Zhou Tao had an agreement with Grandma Ji, he also didn’t take the initiative to provoke Ji Mingxia. So it had been peaceful for several years.

Until this year ……

Ji Mingxia, who always returned home on time, suddenly disappeared, and Grandma Ji couldn’t get through his phone.

Grandma Ji’s first reaction was that Ji Mingxia had an accident.

She was so worried that her heart remained hanging until she heard Ji Mingxia’s voice.

As soon as Ji Mingxia returned home, Grandma Ji noticed that her grandson had changed a lot.

He helped her with the housework, ate with her, and even took the initiative to explain and apologize.

Because of his breakup with the one surnamed Ke, Ji Mingxia became so sensitive and emotional. He was like a hedgehog, always baring his teeth and showing his fiercest side when she opposed him. Why did he change so much this year?

Grandma Ji hid the suspicions in her heart. She knew that Ji Mingxia would not tell her frankly if she asked, so she decided to take her time and observe.

Unexpectedly, things took a turn for the worse within a day and everything would develop in an unpredictable direction.

The ring that Grandma Ji first suspected as a token of love between Ke and Ji Mingxia played a crucial role at the critical moment. Not only did it protect Ji Mingxia, but it also captured Zhou Tao, the devil, without a hitch.

If she remembered correctly, Ji Mingxia said that a classmate named Yu Ning gave him the ring?

Ji Mingxia lived with Yu Ning in the same room, he also went on a forest adventure with Yu Ning and this same Yu Ning had been protecting him.

After returning home, Ji Mingxia’s recent call log was filled with Yu Ning’s name.

And now, the ring that Yu Ning gave Ji Mingxia saved the entire Banana Leaf Village.

Objectively speaking, Yu Ning seemed like an extraordinary person, and he also sounds much more reliable than the one surnamed Ke.

However, although he had great ability, he was surrounded by many dangers.

Grandma Ji deliberately sent Ji Mingxia away from Banana Leaf Village so that he would have an ordinary and safe life outside. Unexpectedly, he still encountered danger. This short month’s experience had even more ups and downs than her lifetime experience as an old woman!

Ji Mingxia was snuggled up to Grandma Ji when he felt that she was looking at him silently. He turned his head and said, “Grandma, what’s wrong?”

Grandma Ji said, “You and that classmate called Yu Ning ……”

Ji Mingxia looked at Grandma Ji in confusion, not understanding why she suddenly brought up Yu Ning.

Grandma Ji saw that Ji Mingxia was confused and was going to ask him how things were going with Yu Ning when she remembered his past with “Ke”. He was emotionally sensitive so it might be counterproductive for her to take the initiative to ask.

Thinking of this, Grandma Ji deliberated for a moment and said, “Invite him for a visit when you are free.”

“Invite Yu Ning?” Ji Mingxia’s eyes widened, “Is it because of Zhou Tao’s matter?”

Grandma Ji nodded and followed his words, “Yes, the police took Zhou Tao away and the whole village is ecstatic. Everyone wanted to thank you but I was afraid that you couldn’t handle it, so I told them that it was your classmate who helped. He is now the savior of our village.”

Ji Mingxia looked at the ring on his hand and blushed inexplicably.

The ring on his hand was unobtrusive as long as he didn’t deliberately wave it around.

But he showed its power in front of Grandma Ji and it was difficult to ignore now.

The thought that Yu Ning put it on him and he couldn’t take off, Grandma Ji’s attention to it, and even the whole village coming around later because of it…

The more Ji Mingxia thought about it, the redder his face became, and he could only respond vaguely.

Grandma Ji sighed in her heart when she saw Ji Mingxia’s silly appearance.

She didn’t believe him when he first told her that he and “Ke” were no longer seeing each other.

She was now completely convinced.

The fear of “Ke” had become a thing of the past, Yu Ning was her next focus of attention.
