Chapter 841 Live to ninety-nine

He picked up a sweet date and got another hit. It was probably Wang Jingzhe's current mood, irritability, depression and confusion.

Even though I was going to see another village, why did I still step into a dead end?

He asked the old man, what was going on. Unexpectedly, a face on the old man's soul had a very complicated expression, most of which were mainly regret, just like the hatred that he found that he lost the lottery after winning 500, and his intestines seemed to be blue.

What the old man said was a past that sounded stunning but also made Wang Jingzhe dumbfounded.

His expression was very lonely and sad, and there was also regret that had never faded.

The old man's name Lin Gui was born during the Republic of China. It was a chaotic era and the people were living in trouble. Therefore, the old man lived a hard and poor life. He was arrested and had been a strong man, fought wars, and served as a beggar. The most common people he saw were the deaths of his relatives, friends or acquaintances.

At that time, a seed was planted in Lin Gui's heart. I didn't want to die if I wanted to survive, and this seed was also the cause of the subsequent development.

In a blink of an eye, more than six years have passed, and another ten years of suffering have come. Lin Gui lived in this fishing village at that time. The people he saw were people who were rectified and fought. Many people were killed. Fortunately, a relative of the Lin Gui family was a little leader of the committee at that time and was very related and always took care of him.

Around the late 1960s, Lin Gui ran into a dying old man in the bullpen and saved his life. From then on, his fate was changed, and he couldn't tell whether the change was good or bad.

At that time, with the help of relatives, Lin Gui had a job to deliver food to those who were locked up in the cowshed. The cowshed was not a shed for raising cattle, but an nickname. In short, it was a place where people were imprisoned. There was a Jiusi Farm behind this fishing village, which was converted into a cowshed. Lin Gui would go to deliver food to people every day. One of them was imprisoned with an old man who was not sure how old he was. The man had a beard and messy hair, and his whole body was stinking. It is said that he was arrested for feudal superstition and other things and was locked up after he was arrested. It has been several years since he was arrested.

This winter, Bincheng was very cold, and the cold wind was bone-bone, snow was covered with snow, and Lin Gui was quite kind-hearted. Seeing that the old man was very pitiful, he saw that he was sick and died of freezing, so he carried a quilt and a sheepskin coat from home for the other party, and made ginger soup for him. He always thought that if this person died in his hands, he felt a little unbearable.

Unexpectedly, the old man didn't know whether it was his life or Lin Gui took good care of him. In that cold winter, he suffered from the spring and blossomed. He pulled his legs back from the Hall of Hell and saved his life because of this, the old man was very grateful to Lin Guisheng, after all, he saved himself.

So the old man asked Lin Gui a question that sounded strange but not very strange.

Just like someone turned on the Aladdin magic lamp, the god of lamp told him what wishes you have.

The old man also asked Lin Gui this way, but he was much more implicit. He asked you what wish you had and I can try to see if it can help you realize it.

Lin Gui didn't take it seriously at the beginning, but just said casually, "I want to live a hundred years old..."

This is indeed the thought deep in Lin Gui's heart. It originated from the chaotic era when he was born. He was used to death and used to leaving. When Lin Gui was five years old, his father died under the whip of the landlord, and when he was eight years old, his mother died at the gun of the Japanese. Before he was fifteen years old, his grandmother and his master both died of illness, so Lin Gui always thought that I would live, the longer I live, the better, so he had the idea of ​​living for a long time.

Unexpectedly, the old man asked him seriously: "It may be a bit difficult to live a hundred years old, but it is almost OK to let you live to ninety-nine years old."

Lin Gui was stunned for a moment, not expecting that the other party answered so seriously, but at that time he still regarded this as the old man's serious illness and was talking nonsense.

Two months have passed, and after spring, summer has ushered in. The old man who should have recovered from the first time was seriously ill. This time, he was terminally ill. It was not a fever or cold, or vomiting and diarrhea, but his body was full of death. Even if it was not a doctor, he could see that he would not have lived for long.

At this time, the old man asked Lin Gui again, if your wish still wants to be fulfilled, and Lin Gui had already left this behind, and the old man said seriously: "You can't live for a long time, but you can live to ninety-nine. If you want to, I can help you, if you don't want to, you will have no chance in the future, because I'm about to die."

Seeing the old man's words so seriously and confidently, Lin Gui was a little convinced and said, "I really want to live longer, I don't want to die."

"Any price?"

Lin Gui didn't notice it at that time. The old man's tone was very evil and depressed when he spoke. He nodded and said, "Of course it's OK, as long as he can live long."

The old man asked his question three times in a row. Lin Gui got impatient afterwards. Finally, the other party said that as long as you don’t regret it, I can do it.

Three days later, Lin Gui brought some things he wanted to come over to the old man, and some strange things. The old man asked how many people there were in his family. Lin Gui told him that I had a wife and four children, and there were a total of six people in the family. The old man said, "You can tie six paper people for me, just burn them for the dead." Then put these paper people on your family's clothes and tell me their birth date and horoscopes."

Lin Gui felt it was strange at the time, but he still did it in a daze. In a few days, he secretly prepared it and then sent it to Jiusi Farm.

On a dark and windy night, the old man asked Lin Gui again before he died while dying: "Will you want to live for a long time? Is there any price?"

"Yes……"

The old man smiled and said, "I hope you don't regret it."

After the old man finished speaking, he asked Lin Gui to burn the paper people with a torch. When a layer of paper ash was dropped from the local area, the old man looked at Lin Gui and said, "You will live to be 99 years old, but you will definitely not be able to live to be a hundred years old. On the night before your 100th birthday, you will die... and your family will leave you one by one, don't regret it."
