Chapter Twenty-Four: Funeral
Nursing homes are uncomfortable places, close to death and far from new births. Vertex Many modern people choose to live in nursing homes when they are old, so that they can be better cared for and have their own lives, and this concept comes from the West.
Mo Xun was deeply influenced by China's Pepsi filial piety first, and was not optimistic about this way of providing for the elderly at first, but later became accustomed to the modern way of living, and was relieved. Young people are now under a lot of pressure than they used to be, so it's a better choice for both young and old.
The car stopped at the door of the nursing home, and Mo Xun solved the hundred-year-old soul hunting technique, so that the hundred-year-old was completely sober. Baisui got out of the car and rushed straight in.
"I'm Bai Yongjun's family, what's the matter with my grandfather?" said Bai Sui.
"Ah, myocardial infarction. We tried our best to rescue and called the emergency center, but before their car came, your grandfather was gone. You go inside and ask for the room number to get the body, and someone at the front desk has already gone to contact the funeral home and funeral supply store. The nurse said calmly.
Mo Xun gave the car keys to Huanqing and chased Bai Sui in. Mo Xun became more and more sure that the hundred-year-old was still the previous She hundred-year-old, he had telepathy with himself, and he could feel his emotions.
Followed Bai Sui into the room, and on a double bed inside, an old man with gray hair was lying calmly in a shroud, and the old lady was sitting on the edge of the bed, her eyes were red.
"Grandma, didn't you say that my grandfather was in good health the last time you called?"
"Man, I'm getting older. The diseases that fell when I was young were all found. Grandma reluctantly got up, trying to lift up the hundred-year-old.
"Don't cry, if you cry, your grandfather will be reluctant to leave. Grandma stretched out her hand to wipe away the tears on the hundred-year-old face, but her own tears fell.
"Grandpa, why don't you wait for me, I still have a lot to say to you!" Bai Sui cried and took his grandfather's hand.
"Grandpa, I should have seen you more!"
......
Mo Xun doesn't like this kind of scene the most, he can't escape from life but death, there is always a way to go by himself. Mo Xun turned around and wanted to go to the front desk to help the hundred-year-old grandfather take care of the funeral, but when he turned his head, he saw the hundred-year-old grandfather lying on the bed standing at the end of the corridor.
"Ask, what do you want to say?" Mo Xun said to Xiaoxi.
Glancing back at the hundred years old, Mo Xun said something in the ear of Huanqing, who had just walked in, and turned around and walked in the direction of the ghost.
At the end of the corridor is the place where the old man exercises, and Xiaoxi and his centenarian grandfather sit side by side.
"Old gentleman, do you have a last wish that I need to help you convey to the hundred-year-old?" Mo Xun said respectfully.
"Yes, little girl, can you see me?" asked the hundred-year-old grandfather.
"Tell me, and I'll bring the word. Mo Xun said.
"You made me say it, and I don't know what to say. I knew it would come one day, but I didn't expect it to come so suddenly. Actually, I'm still a little reluctant. The hundred-year-old grandfather walked over to a chess table.
"The most sorry thing in my life is my wife, she gave birth to two daughters and two sons, but I sent the children to Beijing. When I'm old, I'm alone by her side. ”
"Old man, there has never been anyone in this world who is sorry for anyone, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, isn't the tip of people's hearts all growing down!" Mo Xun said to his hundred-year-old grandfather.
"Little girl, do you know what to order? Can you help me take care of the hundred-year-old? He was sent by his parents as soon as he was born, and he followed us until college. His life has not been good since he was a child, and there are constant disasters and small disasters, and I really can't bear it. The hundred-year-old grandfather said bitterly.
"Old man, everyone has a life, I will protect the hundred-year-old and let him really live a long life. You can go in peace. Mo Xun made a promise.
"Tell my wife that if she has the next life, she must play a game of chess with her, let her regret chess, let her cross the river, no matter what, I will let her. ”
The soul of the hundred-year-old grandfather slowly disappeared, not to the underworld, but to disappear forever. Mo Xun is used to seeing life and death, facing a strange old man, Mo Xun was originally very calm, but when the hundred-year-old grandfather said "I let her", Mo Xun still shed tears, once when She Baisui died, Mo Xun also prayed, as long as She Baisui was willing to live, she would never trouble him again, not call him a stinky old man, and not play with his long beard.
Later, She was 100 years old and buried.
How many people do people have to know in their lives, and how many of these people can accompany them for decades like partners? When you are young, because of who eats the last piece of meat, who sleeps and snores, and when you are old, you know that the chattering mouth is still open, and when you sleep, you can still hear the familiar snoring sound, it is already a lucky and warm thing.
Wiping her tears, Mo Xun took a deep breath and adjusted her state, now is not the time to miss She Baisui, she believes that Baisui will definitely remember the things of her previous life.
Walking into the room again, the body of the hundred-year-old grandfather had been taken away by the staff of the funeral home, and in the empty room, the hundred-year-old grandmother and several middle-aged women were sitting on the bed.
"Grandma's Day mourning, I am a 100-year-old friend. I can understand ghosts and gods, I just had a short conversation with the soul of your old gentleman, and the old gentleman asked me to bring you a word, saying that I will play a good game of chess with you in the next life, let you regret chess, let your horse cross the river, no matter what, he will let you. Mo Xun said bluntly.
"What else did he say?" the centenarian grandmother looked at the little girl in front of her.
He also said that he was most sorry for you in this life. Mo Xun said, regardless of other people's eyes, he said a word in the ear of the hundred-year-old grandmother: I will keep the hundred-year-old safe for life, you don't want to help the hundred-year-old die, and take the rest of the road safely!
The centenarian grandmother looked at the young girl in front of her in surprise, wanted to say something, and finally only said thank you.
After sitting with the female elders of the 100-year-old family for a while, the 100-year-old came over with a death certificate and various documents from the nursing home.
"Auntie and second aunt, my uncle has finished the formalities here, he went over there with the car from the funeral home, you two left one to accompany my grandmother, and then don't ask for trouble for you to drive us over. "The centenarian's mood has calmed down a lot.
The slightly older middle-aged woman said, "I'll stay with my mother, second sister, you can go with Baisui." ”
In the car, Mo Xun couldn't help but ask his 100-year-old parents: "100-year-old, didn't your parents come to the funeral?"
"They just got on the plane, I guess they can arrive in the middle of the night! The small-eyed shopkeeper of the Yaocha Shop said to help me pick it up. "Bai Sui is talking about Huang Ge.
"What about the others?"
"I don't know, they helped me run the formalities just now, why are they gone in a blink of an eye?"
"Cell phone
Password 1960, you open and send a WeChat message to Huanqing and ask them where they went. Mo Xun couldn't send WeChat when he was driving, so he handed the phone to Bai Sui.
1960 is a very special year in Mo Xun, in this year, Mo Xun met She Baisui, picked up Yunshan, met Xiao Xihuan Qinghuan Yu Huangge, and had friends like family.
"Something went wrong, the matter of the substitute death was known by the prefecture, and the prefecture is preparing to take the life of a hundred years old? A group of people just came to the nursing home, and we didn't fight them twice. The voice was played, and the atmosphere in the car was even more terrifying.
"Mo Xun, what is the substitute for death? Is there really a ghost in this world? and the underworld?" asked Mo Xun with his mobile phone.
"I'll explain to you that you're not allowed to leave me from now on. Mo Xun was also shocked, he originally thought it was just an ordinary funeral, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen.
"You say it now. Bai Sui's attitude towards Mo Xun became serious, and his straight face was exactly the same as She Bai Sui.
In the car, the hundred-year-old second aunt was still there, and Mo Xun had to pull over to control her soul first and let her fall asleep.
"What are you doing here? What are you doing to my second aunt?" Bai Sui became more and more uneasy, he subconsciously felt that Mo Xun would not hurt his family, but that behavior was really suspicious.
"I am not Yunshan's adopted daughter, but Yunshan's adoptive mother. I am a person who does not grow old or die, I can communicate with ghosts, and I can also control people's souls. I tell you this, don't be afraid, I won't hurt you, I want to save you. When Mo Xun said these words, his mood was a little relaxed.
"Is my grandfather's death related to you?" Bai Sui looked at Mo Xun vigilantly, and that gaze made Mo Xun a little sad.
"Your grandfather's soul told me that the tip of a man's heart grows downward. Your life is weak, it is not easy to feed, your grandparents did a yin magic in order to support you, when you have an accident, their two elders will die for you. ”
"But this matter is not in accordance with the rules, and the prefecture strictly prohibits it. I don't know how your grandparents did this yin technique, but now that this matter is known to the underworld, your life will be taken back by the underworld. But don't be afraid, as long as I'm here, no one will dare to touch you. Mo Xun said firmly.
"You're saying that I should have died today?"
"What you saw was true, that demon was going to kill you, and in fact he did succeed, and your grandfather died for you. You don't have time to digest this, now everything is up to me, and you can live. Mo Xun hopes that Bai Sui can face this matter calmly.
"If I die, will my grandfather come back?" asked Hyaksuke.
"Your grandfather can't come back. Your grandfather chose to give up his life so that you can live well, and you can't live up to your grandfather's instructions no matter what. Listen to me now, and don't run around whatever you see. I'll protect you.
I protect you, Mo Xun said this sentence today I don't know how many times, she said to herself and to a hundred years old, she must protect him, and can't let him repeat the mistakes of the old goddess.
"I listen to you. "This time Mo Xun didn't use soul hunting, but Bai Sui still chose to believe in Mo Xun very firmly.
Suddenly, all the street lights went out, and there was no car on the road except Mo Xun.
"Get off!"
