Chapter 26 first quarter

Gu Zhuoyi returns from his third adventure.Sliding into the steaming red bath contentedly, the whole person is relieved and relaxed, without worries. Picking up the soap to wipe his body, he suddenly found that the bath water around his knees and ankles had a light red color.She intuitively thought her period had begun.He looked up and saw that there were dry and hard blood clots between the toes, which were gradually melting away after being soaked in water.So does the other foot. She sat motionless.Strangely, the foot was not injured, and the ankle was not cut.The blood is— got it.It's Jerry's blood.After he "walked", she accidentally stepped in.This blood is his mark, and he is stained with sin.

She frantically brushed and toweled.After rinsing over and over again, making sure that there is no trace of blood remaining on the skin, I sat on the toilet seat and poured cologne on the ankles, feet, and between the toes. "Damn blood, get out!" She dried her body, powdered it, and gritted her teeth to stuff a tampon in.Grinding your teeth isn't for pain; how a tiny tampon hurts.It was just the act itself that repelled her: the damage to her dignity. For as long as she could remember, she had been threatened with blood.When she was a child, when she cut her fingers and scraped her knees, she would inexplicably think that her body was a big bag with a hole, and a whole bag of bright red mucus was bubbling out.

Later, menstruation came on that terrible birthday.She believed that she was going to die soon. "Nonsense," my mother snapped. "It just means you've grown up; you're a woman. You must bear this cross." The "cross" was carried by Jesus.To Him, the loss of blood was the loss of life.For her, it is the loss of purity and distortion, and it is the beginning of suffering. The cramping pain has been getting worse year by year since then.Oddly enough, she welcomed the throbbing.This is redemption.Menstrual blood once a month is atonement. She put on a fleece nightgown, went into the kitchen and took various vitamins and minerals.Swallow another sleeping pill and go to bed.An hour passed, and her eyes were still open.So she swallowed another pill.This time, she fell asleep.
