Chapter 455: Origin

Xiao Yi couldn't help but feel a little anxious. "Grandma, it's true. The bad woman kidnapped Master Qi and used the others to force him to do bad things. The bad woman drugged him because she liked Master Qi and wanted to be with him. Master Qi didn't agree, so Sister Xing had to kidnap that woman to bring her back with us."
He summed it up in a few words.
Grandmother looked at me and sighed softly.
I thought for a moment. "How do you know my mother? She and my father died when I was six years old. I had a brain injury from the accident. I don't have any previous memories, so I don't remember my parents at all. Can you tell me about them?"
My grandmother looked at me tenderly. "I don't know your father. When I met your mother, she was only eighteen or nineteen years old. She was young and full of vigor, but she was also hot-blooded. I was lucky to be her friend. However, after we were separated by fate, I lost contact with her. She was my only friend outside of the tribe."
I was a little surprised. I didn't expect her to have such a deep relationship with my mother.
She sighed again. "Do you know what is the origin of forget-me-not?"
Xiao Yi and I shook our heads.
Grandma's gaze became blurry, and her voice was soft. I needed to concentrate to hear her voice. "Where I came from, there were many tribes and thus conflict. When tribal relationships are good, there'd be intermarriages. However, when there is conflict, the couples will suffer. Either the couples ran away together, or they became mortal enemies."

Scenes of fights appeared in my mind.
"Someone came up with a way to cement intermarriages. They thought to combine witchcraft and herbs. The couples would take the drink together, a wedding ceremony of sorts. It meant that they would live and die together. If they separated due to tribal reasons or something else, then the couple would die a horrible death with blood oozing out of all their orifices."
The gore made my heart tremble.
Xiao Yi asked, "But why would they choose such a drastic measure?"
His grandmother and I looked at each other. We knew the answer. Humans were often extremists. They wanted to be loyal to the tribe and also loyal to love. Since they couldn't have both, they would destroy everything.
"Was there already a distance limit then?" I ignored Xiao Yi and asked the question in my heart.
Grandma shook her head. "No, even if husband and wife live together, it's hard to keep them within 100 meters of each other. The medicine back then was more like a ceremonial oath. Some might not even face the pain in their lives because their tribes might not have conflicts for generations. It was due to a stubborn priestess and her fear of betrayal that the medicine became forget-me-not."
"Did the poison stop her from being betrayed?" I asked.
Grandma smiled sadly, "Of course not. Once you worry about betrayal in a relationship, the relationship will end in a betrayal.. From the moment you have that thought, the ending is already destined."
