Only these three words were left in his mind. In an instant, the barbecue that had not been finished chewing in his mouth suddenly became less fragrant.
Seeing his stunned look, Bai Yao laughed until his stomach ached, "Xiao Liuzi, are you stupid?"
Even the old man was so amused that he burst out laughing, "Young man, your girlfriend is teasing you. This is authentic roast lamb!"
Only then did Liu Xingchuan realize that he had been deceived by her, and his handsome face suddenly turned red.
"Yaoyao, you are so naughty."
Bai Yao grabbed another handful of mutton skewers and handed them to him, "Do you still dare to eat them?"
Liu Xingchuan took the meat skewers and said righteously, "Of course I dare to eat it. Even if it is rat meat, it is rat meat that tastes good."
He ate happily.
It tasted even more delicious when I found out it wasn't rat meat.
Bai Yao looked behind him while eating.
Liu Xingchuan looked back curiously, but there was nothing behind him.
"Yaoyao, what are you looking at?"
Bai Yao pointed behind him and said, "There's a ghost there. It looks like he's the old man's son."
Liu Xingchuan looked back again, but still didn't see the shadow of the dead soul.
"Last time in the unfinished building, I suddenly saw ghosts. It was you who opened my yin and yang eyes, right?" He said, "I also want to see another world now, is that okay, Yaoyao?"
Bai Yao was very happy, and her cold fingertips gently touched his eyes.
When Liu Xingchuan opened his eyes again and looked back, sure enough, there was a black shadow on the roadside.
The shadow looked like he was in his thirties, but his face was bluish-white and his lips were black, as if he had been poisoned.
The young man also noticed the two barbecue guests and looked back at him several times.
At first he thought it was a coincidence, but when he saw the two of them still staring at him, the young man hurried over and asked cautiously.
"Excuse me, can you see me?"
Bai Yao did not answer him, but turned to ask the old man, "Boss, you are so old, why do you still set up a stall alone in the middle of the night?"
While cleaning the barbecue grill, the old man smiled kindly and said: "I have been setting up a stall here for more than 20 years. At first, it was to make money to pay off debts. Now that the debt has been paid off, I am used to setting up a stall to sell barbecue every night.
Kebab, as we get older, we sleep less, so selling skewers is just to pass the time."
"Does your family feel comfortable letting you come out alone?" Liu Xingchuan asked.
"What a shame! My wife passed away a long time ago, and one of my sons also committed suicide. I've been the only one hurting the old man all these years." The old man talked about the gloomy past calmly, "I started selling at a stall.
The kebabs are also to repay the debts owed by my son. Not to mention, my life is quite fulfilling, and now I am debt-free and light-hearted."
The grandfather talked a lot, and also mentioned that after his son owed a huge debt, he committed suicide by taking medicine because he couldn't pay back the money.
When talking about his son leaving everything behind after being unable to repay, his voice was still calm, "Debt is not terrible, the terrible thing is escaping. A person must have integrity. If there is no integrity, what else can there be between people?"
The ones you trust."
"Everyone said that my son owed the money and I had no obligation to pay him back."
"As the saying goes, the father's debt must be paid by the son, and the son's debt must be repaid by the father. I raised him but did not educate him well. I cannot pat his butt and walk away like him. How can I be worthy of my creditors? They also
It’s difficult.”
"All I can do is try my best to atone for my son's sins while I'm alive. I hope he won't owe so many karmic debts in his next life."
The old grandfather's weathered face showed a kind smile. Although he said it calmly, his eyes were still red after all.
The young man on the side burst into tears when he heard his old father's words.
He has actually seen it all these years, seeing his old father setting up a stall every night to earn a little money to pay off his debts.
He had long regretted his irresponsible departure and left all his debts to his old father.
"Thank you for your hard work, old man." Liu Xingchuan sighed in his heart, glared at the young man, and subconsciously scolded him, "Your father will pay you back for all the sins you have done."
The young man was shocked and looked at him in disbelief, "Can you really see me?"
Liu Xingchuan: "...Ahem."
Bai Yao said: "Death is not liberation. The underworld will not accept ghosts like you who evade responsibility and commit suicide."
The young man regretted and cried, "If you give me another chance to choose, I will never do such a stupid thing..."
It's a pity that there is no regret medicine for him in the world.
Those who commit suicide have sinned so deeply that most of them will not be able to go to the underworld or be reincarnated.
"Who are you talking to?" The old man was startled by the two men talking into the air.
The young man hurriedly begged: "Two elder brothers and elder sisters, please be kind..."
Bai Yao interrupted him angrily, "You look older than me. Isn't it appropriate to call me eldest sister?"
The young man asked, "What do you call me?"
"Call...Sister Yao."
Young man: "..." Is there a difference?
"Sister Yao, please tell my dad that I'm sorry for him..."
Before the young man finished speaking, Bai Yao suddenly interrupted him, "You have a mouth but you can't speak it yourself?"
It's so insincere to ask someone to spread the apology.
The young man smiled bitterly, "But my father and I are separated from each other, how can I tell him?"
Bai Yao turned to the old man and asked, "Old man, do you believe there are ghosts in this world?"
The old man was stunned and said with a smile: "I believe it, so I want to atone for my son's sins and reduce his sins..."
"That's no problem, you can see for yourself."
Bai Yao looked around and saw that there was no one nearby, he secretly made a secret gesture and opened the old man's limited-time Yin and Yang Eyes.
The old man's eyes suddenly turned gray. When he opened his eyes again, there was a familiar figure under the street lamp.
It is his son.
He was stunned on the spot and looked at his son in disbelief.
"Dad! I'm sorry!" The young man hurriedly knelt down.
This apology, which was overdue for more than 20 years, was finally spoken to my old father in person.
The old grandfather walked over tremblingly, and the strength that he had held on for many years suddenly couldn't be stretched any longer. He hugged his son with tears streaming down his face, and slapped his son's body angrily and helplessly.
"Tell me why you need to take medicine!"
"We'll just work hard to pay off the money we owe. Do we need to take medicine?"
"You are a child who has been too rebellious and disobedient since childhood..."
The young man allowed his old father to scold and beat him, and he accepted it obediently, just like himself who was beaten after being naughty when he was a child.
However, when he was a child, he was not convinced, but now, he just hopes that his old father will beat him harder for a while.
Liu Xingchuan asked Bai Yao, "Why are you helping them?"
Bai Yao stroked the skewers with an indifferent expression, "His life is almost over, so it can be regarded as his blessing. He can see his son before leaving. After that, he will be taken to the underworld. A good and honest person like the old man will definitely
Soon it will be my turn to be reincarnated, and the next life will not be so hard."
