Chapter 76: A Shot
I lost all the money I borrowed today, and I became a debt-ridden gambler, and I had to take a detour home to avoid the loan sharks.
When I got home, I was lying in bed and lost my energy, and it was at this time that there was a heavy knock on the door, and I suddenly woke up.
I didn't need to analyze these knocks to know that they were debt collectors, and there were many people who immediately crawled under the bed to hide, trying not to make a sound, and after a while they left.
Just when I thought they were leaving, I was so happy that I covered my mouth to keep the laughter from coming out, and slowly stuck my head out from under the bed, and through the gap in the threshold, I saw the men still standing outside the door.
In order not to suffer from the flesh and skin, I continued to hide under the bed, when I smelled the smell of burning, and when I looked sideways at the threshold, I saw a very strong fire burning.
Something unfortunate happened, the north wind blew, and the smoke drifted in through the crack in the door, and at once it filled the house. I felt very pungent, so I immediately crawled into the bathroom to take shelter, took tap water with a towel, and covered my nose wet.
The pungent smell of smoke was suddenly stopped, and I became refreshed, and when I came to the hall again, the fire had spread to the sofa, and it was burning very vigorously. I didn't leave a way to escape, so I went back, trying to climb out of the bathroom window, and when I looked up, I realized that there was a very strong security net.
I fell into fear, the towel covering my nose slowly fell off the ground, the smoke suddenly inhaled into my lungs, my head felt dizzy, and suddenly I fell to the ground. Before I fell unconscious, I saw a red flame burning towards me, and a debt collector standing outside the door. It's long gone.
I don't know how much time passed, but I slowly woke up, and the moment I opened my eyes, I was stunned, and I couldn't take my eyes off the surroundings.
I was lying on the white floor, not a bit soft, and in front of me was an oversized square mirror with blue flames burning around it. Looking behind me, there are various mirrors suspended in mid-air, and the world presented inside is the city I used to live in.
When I saw this, I thought I was in heaven, and I thought about being burned in the fire, and my mood would be a little better. After all, he is a scum, borrowing money all day long, going to the entertainment city to play, living an idle life, and gambling his life cleanly.
Now there is only an interesting soul left, floating among the mirrors, and can never be reincarnated.
There was a mirror next to me, and suddenly a chubby child ran out and asked me, "Master, what are you thinking?" ”
"Are you asking me?"
"Of course, master, it's just us, who do you think I'm going to ask?"
"Didn't I die in the fire? How can you become your master? ”
"Master, this matter is a long story, I will talk about it slowly. This place is connected by tens of thousands of mirrors in another world, and interesting souls can become the masters here, and only after fulfilling 10,000 wishes for others can they leave here. ”
"Wow, 10,000 wishes, when do I have to deliver them?"
"Ten thousand wishes are not so simple, the goal of giving them to achieve is very strict, only kind-hearted, no insatiable people, master, can you achieve what you want?"
"Can any wish come true?"
"As long as the requirements are not too excessive and the ambition is not met, it can be achieved for these people."
"Well, I'll try. If 10,000 wishes are fulfilled, will I be the first child or will I be resurrected? ”
"Resurrection, of course."
"Then I'll start work."
Before I could finish speaking, there was a large mirror in front of me, in which the boy was sitting on the bed, praying, and he did not speak, but the mirror could translate the wishes made in his heart.
The boy said, "I just wish I had a ring and confess to the girl I like, hoping that God can help me." ”
I looked at the chubby kid sitting next to me, "Can this wish come true?" ”
"Master, please judge according to your own heart."
"Got it, so how am I going to make his wish come true?"
"It's very simple, just imagine a ring in your head, and then the ring will fall from the sky and fall in front of him. In this way, the wish task is completed, isn't it very simple. ”
"Okay."
I slowly closed my eyes and imagined what the countless rings in the world would look like, and I chose the most beautiful one among them, which was a silver-white ring with the names of both parties engraved on it. When my head confirmed the ring, I opened my eyes and the silver ring fell in front of the boy.
At this time, the boy stood up excitedly, jumped up and down on the bed, and that smile made me feel very warm, and with the palm of his hand, the boy's name appeared, and then disappeared.
"Master, the first wish has been fulfilled, so please continue!"
"It's so easy to send a wish! No wonder there are so many lucky people in the world, but why am I in debt? ”
"Do you mean to rest?"
"I'm just whining, who's next?"
When he finished saying this, a girl appeared in the big mirror, wearing black mourning clothes, crying in front of a photo spiritual position, crying red eyes.
The chubby kid asked, "Master, is that your picture?" ”
"Hmm."
"Who is this beautiful girl?"
"A former person, my current life is caused by her."
"Oh, so she's the reason you gambled, but why did she leave?"
"I didn't leave, I left."
"God, please, please give him back to me, and I will exchange my life for it." The mirror sounded the girl's voice of the translator.
"Master, this kind of ambitious desire, you can do it yourself?"
"What punishment will I receive if I grant her wish?"
"She will completely forget about you, and she will be lonely for the rest of her life, and the two of you will never have a chance to be together."
"What if I don't get my wish?"
"It's just one less wishlist."
"Understood."
Time is like flowing water, and there is never room for reversal.
The chubby boy said, "Master, this other world has been designed by you as a grand palace, and you are really good at living. ”
"Isn't that comfortable?"
"I'm just asking. By the way, I've always had a question for you? ”
"Say it!"
"You've fulfilled 10,000 wishes, why don't you want to go out?"
"Hee-hee, if I go out, will you be willing?"
"Master, I'm not kidding."
"Because seeing the world in the mirror is so beautiful, but now I'm used to life here, so I'm the master of the secret realm."
"Master, I see that you don't dare to face that woman, she has been waiting for you for five whole years, plus the previous three years, even if you will not grow old, but she will ...... one day"
"Okay, the next wish list is here, I'll get to work right away."
With my words, the large mirror lit up with blue flames around it, and the blurred mirror slowly became clear.
There was a bunch of people in it, the voices of which I knew so well that I could never forget the fierce faces, the murderers of a fire, the debt collectors who burned me alive.
