Chapter 42 Youth
After a few days of running, Lin Fan could finally take a good rest.
Although he still has no clues about the soul arrest, he is fortunate that he is not alone here now, running around like a headless fly.
Lin Fan believed that there would always be a way to find out with the power of the entire Banyan City.
At the very least, it's much better than looking for it alone.
In case he still can't find out, although this possibility is very small, he still has to be prepared.
Because you can't rely on others for everything, you have to work harder in the future, and you can't relax as much as before.
Lin Fan is a passive person, although he has a lofty ideal that wants to explore the nature of the world, he will not delve into and explore it like a madman.
Although you can,
But it's not necessary.
Personality dictates.
But now it was different, and he even began to feel a sense of urgency.
"Alas......"
When I want to live peacefully, life doesn't allow me to be peaceful......
With days of tiredness and worry, Lin Fan fell into a deep sleep.
......
This sleep, I slept until the afternoon of the next day, and woke up naturally.
When I woke up, all the tiredness was swept away.
I went to the bathroom again to wash up, and took a shower,
"Hoo ......"
Refreshed.
The summer heat is boring, how to solve the worries?
Only air conditioning, WiFi, and watermelon.
Walk down the second floor,
Meng Yuerou was sitting on the counter bored, reading a book, and didn't even want to play with her mobile phone.
It's strange that she can play with her phone when she goes to work, but she doesn't play.
Seeing Lin Fan coming down,
"Old, boss......"
Hurriedly stood up and said hello.
"Hmm."
There are no customers in the store.
Lin Fan could see that this was indeed a big blow to a newcomer who was full of expectations.
I want to struggle and work hard, but I don't have a customer or a chance, so I lie down and receive my salary.
That's how it will be when you first come, and you can get used to it after a while.
Well, being idle is also used to being idle.
There is no salted fish in this world, and after being idle for a long time, it will become a salted fish.
It was already half the afternoon, and it was approaching evening.
Lin Fan also ate something casually, cushioned his stomach, and waited until dinner to eat together.
Then I sat on the couch and read a book.
Time passed quickly, and dinner ended happily in a friendly atmosphere where Meng Yuerou bowed her head the whole time and didn't dare to look at Lin Fan, without a trace of embarrassment at all.
After cleaning up, Lin Fan asked her to go back from work early.
Looking at Meng Yuerou's back as she went out, sensing her uncomplaining feedback, she nodded.
Well, it's okay, it looks like I don't have to worry about whether she'll get entangled again.
Since the last time she was entangled in dirty things to help her remove the remaining resentment, she hasn't felt resentment in her these days.
Presumably, the spirit has dissipated on its own.
If she is entangled one after another, then she may encounter not only a resentful spirit, but an evil spirit.
At that time, I had to forcibly interfere, that thing was very dangerous.
After all, although people die every day in this world, there are soul bodies appearing all the time.
There will be many people who are unwilling to die, and after they leave the body and become a soul body, they always want to struggle again, and want to stay in this world for a few more days.
But many times it's just a pointless dying struggle, and when the corpses are incinerated into the ground, and the dust is returned to the dust, they lose their dependence, and it doesn't take long for them to dissipate on their own.
If you don't have enough resentment in life, it's basically impossible to transform into an evil spirit after death.
The number of evil spirits is extremely rare.
Even Lin Fan has not encountered it a few times in the past few years.
It's okay.
Lin Fan shook his head and didn't think about it anymore.
Since he slept until mid-afternoon last night, he has no sleepiness at all now, and even has a lot of energy, but he doesn't want to go out for a walk and consume it.
I can only sit on the sofa and read a book.
Time passes little by little,
At eight o'clock in the evening, there were still no customers in the store, only Lin Fan sat there reading alone.
and the two cats lying beside him.
I don't think there will be any guests today.
Doesn't matter
Anyway, Boss Lin didn't care.
He continued to read the book quietly.
......
From time to time, cars passed by on the road, and occasionally a few passers-by passed by the door, turned their heads to look at the house, and could not see any doorway.
The sky was a little dark these nights, the moon rarely came out, often hiding behind the clouds, occasionally revealing a broken corner, and there were few stars in the sky.
The sky was dark and dark, but it didn't rain.
street corner
A teenager, about sixteen or seventeen years old, staggered and aimless.
He looked up at the sky, and a broken moon hung in the clouds, falling into his eyes.
Fall into his bloodshot eyes.
He stopped, looked at the waning moon, and didn't know what he was thinking.
The cars and pedestrians around him were like air in his eyes, and he was silent in his own world.
Gradually, the clouds in the sky obscured the last corner of the waning moon and disappeared.
Only then did the boy lower his head, drag his body, and continue walking aimlessly.
Walking and walking,
He came to the front of a shop, habitually stopped, and turned his head to look.
Only then did I find myself walking to the door of this store where I often came to read books.
After a moment's hesitation, he turned around and pushed the door open.
Anyway, he didn't know where he was going.
The young man walked into the store, and Lin Fan, who was sitting on the sofa reading a book, glanced at it with his spare eyes,
Well?
Then Lin Fan turned his head to look at the door.
It's him
The quiet boy who often came to the store and only ordered a cup of kumquat lemon.
But
His status?
Lin Fan looked at the door with some confusion, and then looked at the boy again, knowing in his heart.
I saw that the young man's hair was messy, his face was pale, his eyes were bloodshot, his eyes were quite heavy, they were faint blue and black, and his lips were bloodless.
It's a living person.
But it is obvious that his mental state is extremely poor, and it can even be said that he has reached the point where he is on the verge of mental collapse.
The young man walked up to Lin Fan and almost instinctively, said in a hoarse voice,
"The boss... Kumquat Lime ......"
After a pause for a few seconds, he seemed to change his mind,
"There's... Alcohol? ”
Lin Fan looked at him, hesitated for a moment, and then said,
"Yes."
The boy walked over to the table and sat down.
Lin Fan put down the book in his hand, walked to the fresh-keeping cabinet, opened the cabinet, picked up a case of beer, took a cup, and put it next to the young man.
Open the box, help him take out a bottle of wine, pry the cap open, and place it in front of him.
"Thank you......"
The boy whispered.
After putting down the wine, I went to the refrigerator to find some snacks and put them on the table.
"Thank you......"
The young man thanked again, pursed his lips, and asked tentatively in a hoarse voice,
"The boss... You can... Do you want to drink with me? ”
Lin Fan's first reaction was to refuse, but after hesitating for a while, he thought about it again, looked behind the young man, and agreed to him,
"Okay."
Although he only said a brief word of kumquat lemon every time he came to the store, the two hardly communicated anything else.
Normally, he doesn't have much contact with an unfamiliar person.
But Lin Fan did have a deep impression of him, and even in some ways, he was very similar to Lin Fan.
I have a good habit of not going to drink when I read a book, I am quiet, and every time I come, I just sit in the corner and read.
In him, Lin Fan seemed to be able to see his previous shadow, really, very similarly.
It's always easier to get favor with similar people, and Lin Fan is the same.
So today, he agreed to sit down and drink with him.
Anyway, there was nothing else to do, and I couldn't sleep.
Take another glass and pour yourself wine.
The boy raised his glass to Lin Fan,
"Thank you......"
"Hmm."
Then they drank it all, and the two didn't talk much, just drank one by one.
Maybe it's because the young man is too strong to drink, and after drinking a few bottles, he is already red-faced, drunk, and he wants to speak several times.
Probably because he was afraid that Lin Fan would not be interested in his story, so he didn't want to bother him.
Seeing this, Lin Fan said,
"You say, I'll listen."
The boy took advantage of the wine and smiled shyly to show his gratitude.
Although he was laughing, there was no smile in his eyes, but full of pathos, but he couldn't cry anymore.
So, he laughed ugly.
It was obviously sad, but it could only be replaced by laughter, because the tears had long since dried up.
Sometimes, when you see a mountain, it may not be a mountain, and when you see water, it may not be water.
Under the mountains and rivers, there is another meaning.
The young man removed the sad smile from the corner of his mouth and spoke in his hoarse voice,
"My name is ......"
......
The teenager's name is Liu Siche, 18 years old this year, and his family lives in a nearby community......
Liu Siche has his own memories of following his grandparents when he was young, and his parents were busy with work outside the home, and they saw each other very few times a year, or rather, only during the Chinese New Year.
So in fact, his relationship with his parents is not very close.
Later, when he was in elementary school, his parents returned to Rongcheng.
Unfortunately, my grandfather fell ill and died that year.
Then, in the following days of living with his parents, he still couldn't get through it safely.
dispute
parental disputes,
Endless disputes.
It doesn't seem that there are too many excuses and reasons, and the two of them can always quarrel and even fight for various reasons.
Liu Siche clearly remembers that when they quarreled, they were in front of him, and he never tabooed whether he was by his side or not.
Even, in front of themselves, the two drove to the Civil Affairs Bureau to end the marriage.
He was still young, and he was standing in front of his house, watching them leave, unable to do anything.
That image, like a knife carved with an axe, was deeply remembered in his mind, existed in his memory, and could not be forgotten.
Even now, more than ten years have passed, and I still haven't forgotten half of it.
But for some reason, the Civil Affairs Bureau failed to agree, it seems that it was because of their own reasons, because of their own children.
When you know about it,
As a young man, only one thought came to his mind,
Was it me, dragging them down?
I'm a liability,
It's a,
Encumbrance......
