Chapter 805, The Mirage I Constructed [Second Update]
Well?
The old man was startled, turned his head, and found that the kitchen knife was on the ground.
With a chill on his back, his hairs stood on end, the old man's heart was beating like a drum, and he couldn't understand it, he came back to his senses and looked at the black and white photos of the old lady in disbelief.
"That's not right...... Old woman, you must be reluctant to kill me......"
Looking at the black-and-white photo, the old man's heart suddenly calmed down, his eyes softened, his vigilant heart suddenly relaxed, and his fear disappeared, he picked up the kitchen knife and put it back in the kitchen.
Knock knock.
At 3:10 p.m., there was a knock on the door.
The old man was silent for a moment, and countless strange thoughts appeared, and finally he glanced at the black and white photo of the old lady, his eyes were calm, and he opened the door.
"Hello, old man."
At the door, there was a young man, well-proportioned, slightly robust, with a very infectious smile, but with an indescribable wildness in his eyes.
His posture was relaxed, as if he was expressing a kind of kindness to the old man.
"Ah, hello. Come in and sit down? ”
Qin Kun wanted to make up his intentions, but found that the old man was very strange, and he welcomed himself in without asking anything.
In the room, the smell of smoke was permeated, and with Qin Kun's arrival, the flames of the two candles became a little brighter.
The community is a community for railway workers, and the living room is very simple, which is also the case for ordinary workers' families.
The old man found that Qin Kun was looking at the portrait of the old lady, and said softly: "That's my wife, who left last year, didn't scare you, right?" ”
In the corner of the room, an old lady with a bloody face hid at the door of the bathroom, and a male ghost with a festering face hid at the door of the kitchen, secretly looking at this side.
Qin Kun's arrival was extremely threatening, and there were no imps around the incense tribute who dared to steal food, and the candlelight was naturally a little brighter than just now.
"Nope." Qin Kun smiled.
The old man nodded and sighed: "My son is abroad, and my granddaughter is also abroad, and today is the old woman's sacrifice day." She's been gone for a year......"
The old man seemed to be very lonely, and it was estimated that no one would chat with him on weekdays, so he poured tea for Qin Kun and chattered, Qin Kun held hot tea and only played a listener next to him.
"Last year, I was shopping for vegetables with the old woman, and there was a murderer in the vegetable market, who slashed two people and was about to run away, and knocked down the old woman.
"The kitchen knife accidentally cut the major artery, and the man died, and the old woman's head hit the steps, and she died of blood loss in her skull. The police comrades didn't blame me, and everyone supported me and proved my innocence......"
"Of the other two people who were slashed, one died. I'm going to avenge them. Hahahaha......"
The smile ends here.
The old man became sad: "Alas, but the people are gone, what's the use......"
The old man said and said, shedding muddy tears: "My son is busy with work and can't come to accompany me, and my granddaughter can't come to accompany me when she is studying abroad, today's old woman's sacrifice day, I can't sleep, I want to pay tribute to her at night, but I didn't expect you to come." I don't want to ask who you are, but I think it's nice to meet you......"
After drinking a cup of hot tea, Qin Kun sat on the sofa, looked at the old man wiping his tears, sighed, and walked over to flick the brazier with chopsticks.
"Old man, pay tribute to your wife, just burn paper and light candles, and you don't need to burn the charcoal here, right?"
Qin Kun turned his head and found that the old man did not speak, his expression was lost and sad.
Another person who can't think about it.
The spiritual sustenance is gone, the loneliness is helpless, the children and grandchildren are outside, and they can't enjoy the joy of family, and the charcoal in the brazier is the old man's choice tonight.
The windows in the house are airtight, and a fool can perceive it, the old man is about to commit suicide by burning charcoal, Qin Kun opened the window, breathed, he stared at the male ghost in the kitchen, the male ghost found that Qin Kun seemed to be able to see himself, and suddenly, he saw Qin Kun's forehead open with a vertical eye, which was exactly the same as the vertical eye outside the window just now.
Qin Kun sneered, turned his head again, and comforted him with a pleasant face: "Old man, people have their own lives, and what has happened cannot be changed. ”
The old man wiped his nose and nodded, suddenly getting much older.
Seeing that he was listless and had no sustenance in life, this state was very dangerous, Qin Kun was not good at comforting people, but he also knew that the old man's current state could not be ignored.
So he opened his mouth and changed the subject: "Do you believe that there are ghosts in the world?" ”
For a moment, the old man was stunned, and at that moment, he seemed to forget about loneliness and sadness, and became a member of the vast number of curious people, looking at Qin Kun blankly and shaking his head.
Qin Kun didn't care whether he believed it or not, lit a cigarette, leaned against the kitchen window, and sighed: "I believe it." ”
"I'm a ghost slayer, ridiculous, right? Haha, among the predecessors I know, there are also many ghost hunters, because of some circumstances, they can't have children, they can't reproduce, and the meaning of their whole life is to stabilize yin and yang. Don't let the little ghosts mess with the world. ”
The old man didn't doubt it, didn't despise it, and didn't say what he thought, in response to Qin Kun's words, he sighed: "It's a great story......
"It's great...... Qin Kun exhaled smoke and recalled, "A very old man, who was once an orphan, was raised by the master, and raised a group of orphans, in fact, in a sense, they also have offspring. The path they chose also has helplessness, but life is already so hard, and they still have to live, and people are great because of this, isn't it? ”
The old man was stunned, savoring Qin Kun's words.
Sometimes, one person's suffering is easily magnified, and everyone is struggling in the mud of suffering, which seems insignificant.
"Little brother, I accept your comfort." The old man smiled tiredly.
Qin Kun extinguished the cigarette and asked the first sentence: "Do you believe that there are ghosts in this world?" ”
The old man was silent, his lips moving.
Qin Kun suddenly smiled heartily: "Don't be suspicious, of course there are no ghosts in the world." However, if you dream now, you can dream of your wife, she wants you to live well, do you believe it? ”
The old man was stunned, and found that Qin Kun pointed his fingers together, and suddenly pointed at the center of the old man's eyebrows.
This is no different from crashing.
There was a buzz in the old mind, and Qin Kun suddenly put on a human skin cloak on his body, and the skinning ghost cloak was on his body, and the mirage technique was used. He had no way of knowing what the old man's memory was, so he could only construct a mirage according to his memory of thirty years ago.
30 years ago, in the railway community, the old man had the illusion that he was young.
The old house has also been renovated, and it is the first new house he bought in his life after moving out of the staff apartment.
The ornaments in the room are blurry, the old man can't see it if he wants to, and outside the window is a thriving era of development, the best era for workers.
On the radio, "We Workers Have Power" made a sonorous sound, the old man felt that he was dozens of years younger all of a sudden, Qin Kun hid in the dark, and said to the old lady: "You also saw it, your wife begged for death tonight." I can't control if he wants to commit suicide, it's 3:10 now, you can only stay for 2 hours in this mirage, whether you can make your wife rekindle her desire to survive is up to you. ”
The old lady was stunned: "You...... Can you see me? ”
"Hmm."
Qin Kun's answer was concise and to the point.
The old lady blinked: "But...... What is Mirage? ”
"The ghost hits the wall, and the ghost I built hits the wall. Here, too, you can use ghostcraft. Like, make yourself young! ”
The old lady didn't believe it, it was too unbelievable, for ghosts, Qin Kun's words were even more unbelievable, but as her thoughts moved, Qin Kun pushed her and came to a mirror.
The old lady is incredible, when she sees herself in the mirror, she is clearly the same person she was 30 years ago!
The old lady's eyes had changed when she looked at Qin Kun again, but she heard Qin Kun say: "The mirage of Linjiang City, I am quite stable in structure, and you can go outside, but you only have 2 hours." Treasure. ”
patting the old lady on the shoulder, after Qin Kun finished speaking, he grabbed the ghost in the kitchen and walked out the door.
In the room, the old man was standing in front of the window in disbelief, and suddenly heard footsteps behind him, and when he turned his head, the old man's pupils constricted: "Xiujuan? ”
"Old money, I'...... Why don't we go out and take a walk? ”
A young woman, covering her mouth with tears in her eyes, spoke to the old man.
