On a rainy night, in the empty three-room room on the 17th floor, bursts of painful moans came from the bedroom. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoAn elderly man in his 50s, who had endured many years of illness and torture with all kinds of treatments, kept shouting: "Give me another painkiller injection......!

However, there was no one in the house. Only the irritable honking of the driver in the traffic jam on a rainy day outside the window seemed to answer himself.

The son and daughter-in-law took their three-year-old grandson to the city center for dinner and went shopping, and they have not yet returned.

At this time, the old man's ears suddenly sounded a repeated whisper that seemed to come from the abyss: "Close your eyes and get complete liberation!" Close your eyes and get complete liberation......

The sound is sometimes far away, sometimes near, and sometimes loud.

But how could the old man be willing to let go!

He is nostalgic for his son, nostalgic for his grandson, nostalgic for everything in this world.

I thought I had seen through everything and was mentally prepared, but at the moment of death, I was still so fragile!

The old man endured the severe pain and carefully inspected the furnishings in the house, and even the carvings on the wardrobe door were meticulously seen, and he lost his mind and wept.

He once again recalled the hurried life he had recalled countless times, and touched everything beside the bed.

In the end, with his withered right hand, he tried his best to put the family portrait on the bedside table on his chest.

With the thunder and wind outside the window and the torrential rain hitting the window, the old man was reluctant but still passed away with a smile on his face.

The wind continues to howl.

The rain is also ticking.

But all the sounds, accompanied by the old man's closed eyes, completely stopped him.

Quiet, still quiet!

I thought that death was an endless darkness, an infinite abyss. It wasn't until the moment the old man closed his eyes that he knew that death was just a detachment from the body, and that people really had souls.

It's just that he didn't expect his out-of-body soul to be a young man.

One-word eyebrows, long legs. Medium split head, sausage mouth. High nose bridge, eyes like water.

He stroked every part of himself with both hands, looked at the body lying on the bed, and stood still.

After a long time, he said to himself: "No wonder people say old children, old children. The age of the human soul is not the same as the heart. No matter how old you are, as long as you have a young and happy heart, your soul will always be youthful. My soul is so young, probably because I can't get rid of my love and poor mouth all my life!"

It's just that he didn't realize that when he was stunned, his soul body was quietly expanding.

Not long after, the son came home with his grandson and daughter-in-law.

The little grandson rushed into his grandfather's bedroom for the first time, shouting: "Grandpa, grandpa, look at my new clothes to see if they look good......"

However, the little grandson dragged his grandfather's hands and shook them for a long time, but he didn't get any response from his grandfather.

Seeing that he couldn't wake up his grandfather, the little grandson ran out of the room and said angrily to his parents: "Mom and Dad, it's all your fault, grandpa ignored me! It's all your fault!

Mom was busy sorting out her belongings and turned around and said, "Your grandfather is probably asleep, don't bother, play by yourself!"

But the father seemed to hear that something was wrong with his son's words.

He walked into his father's bedroom, only to find him breathless.

I think of my father's nurturing grace, the joys and quarrels that I used to have with my father. Dad was in agony and cried loudly.

The old man's soul did not leave, he saw it all.

He tried to comfort him, but found himself like an illusory bubble that he couldn't touch.

His heart was sad, his eyes were red, but there were no tears to shed.

It was only then that the old man discovered that his soul body had been blurred and expanded several times.

Rising and swelling, his head pressed against the roof, slowly squeezing him and barely able to move.

No matter how nostalgic or reluctant he was, he had to leave through the crack in the window immediately.

The old man squeezed out of the house, and his soul slowly floated down in the air.

Outside, it was still windy and rainy, thunder and lightning.

His soul swayed in the wind, letting the rain fall, but his eyes never left the direction of home.

Could it be that I, Yuan Bao, are just gone?

Can't go back?

Gently falling to the ground, Yuan Bao bounced a few times.

He didn't go.

He's waiting.

When you reach 17 floors, you can look at the voices and faces of your children and grandchildren.

At dawn the next day, Yuan Bao's soul body, which had swelled to ten floors high, stood on the wide road. The flow of people and traffic pulled out a long trail from under his feet.

His eyes were still only black and white, and the eyes of the dead could not see the colors of the world.

At this time, the sky is sunny after the rain and there is no cloud. The sun was shining a little harshly.

The raindrops on the branches and leaves reflect the sunlight, making the washed world shine like a glass that has just been wiped off.

For some reason, Yuan Bao found that his swelling soul body was slowly being sucked away by the grass and leaves on the side of the road. And the speed of absorption is getting faster and faster.

"Could it be that the green plants that carry out photosynthesis can absorb the souls of people who go out of their bodies after death?" Yuan Bao muttered to himself.

"Could it be that the soul also has a cycle, similar to the conservation of energy?" Yuan Bao couldn't believe his reasoning.

"Yes. The soul body is absorbed by plants, and humans eat plants that store souls and absorb the souls in plants. The soul fragments absorbed by the man converge into sperm, and the soul fragments absorbed by the woman converge into eggs. In the end, the two are combined to give birth to new life, and new life naturally has a soul. The soul is also used repeatedly, but each time it is redisassembled and reorganized. The natural world is amazing! Even in the corners where you can't see, unexpected things happen all the time. ”

Thinking of this, Yuan Bao's soul body smiled bitterly: "If my own is still alive, it is estimated that I can win a Nobel Prize or something with this discovery!"

It didn't take long for Yuan Bao's soul body to begin to sway around, his feet and legs had been absorbed and were somewhat mutilated, and he couldn't stand steadily.

Only then did he notice the black-and-white brick gatehouse that had been suspended not far behind him since he died.

"Is this the gateway to the Netherworld?"

"But I don't want to go, it's just one meter away! Wait, wait a little longer, I can see my son and grandson!" Yuan Bao was unwilling.

But at this time, Yuan Bao's feet had been absorbed by the surrounding plants.

Yuan Bao still insisted.

But the later he goes, the more he swells to the higher he can't match the speed at which the plant absorbs.

Yuan Bao looked at the sky with his eyes and scolded with a smile: "God, are you kidding me? You are kiding.me? One point short of the accounting exam, one vote short of the factory director, and one year short of receiving a pension! Now look at my children and grandchildren for the last time, you let me be one meter short! No matter what, no matter what, you can play if you want to!"

After laughing, Yuan Bao looked at his small home with affection, and reluctantly pushed open the black and white gatehouse and walked in.
