remember? In the yellowing time, the red nails you painted for her have faded as time goes by. Only this red color remains as bright as ever...
"Hey! Dongqing, what spells did you learn from Teacher Jiang today?"
"Hey, I won't tell you!"
"Hey, tell me! There's nothing to keep secret about this."
"All right."
"Speak quickly, speak quickly!"
"Today, Teacher Jiang taught me the invisibility technique, but I didn't learn it."
"cut... ... ... ."
In convenience store No. 444, Jiang Chen sat leisurely in a corner, drinking and watching Xia Dongqing and Wang Xiaoya laughing and joking. A smile couldn't help but appear on his face.
"It's great to be young!"
As an old antique who has lived for hundreds of thousands of years, Jiang Chen is certainly qualified to express such emotion. However, at this moment, suddenly, he frowned, but he sensed that Convenience No. 444 was just away from him. In a place not far from the store, something was rapidly withering, even between life and death.
What happened? !
Although he has long been used to seeing life and death, this is a peaceful world after all. Jiang Chen was shocked and doubtful. His body gradually faded away. He left convenience store No. 444 and walked quickly in the direction of the death induction, passing through two Crossing the street, he soon came to the place where the aura of death appeared. What he saw was the scene of a car accident.
A large out-of-control truck rear-ended a white car. Due to the sudden situation, a bus behind could not brake in time and rear-ended the large truck. The three vehicles rear-ended and collided, causing a big disaster.
The truck driver died on the spot. The car in front had an airbag, and the driver was a young girl. Her injuries were not serious. However, many passengers on the bus behind her were injured, including more than 30 people, because it was after school and work. People were injured, and the traffic police, with the help of passers-by, moved the injured out. Among the injured, several were particularly serious and were already on the verge of death when Jiang Chen arrived.
From birth to death, the end of life, although Jiang Chen has seen it countless times in the reincarnation world in the past, and even his hands were already covered with blood, but every time he saw a living person dying, Struggling at the boundary, there was always an inexplicable throbbing in his heart.
"Mo Li, Mo Li..."
It was a young couple who were probably still in love. During the car accident, the boy was seriously injured trying to protect the girl. At this moment, he was on the verge of death. The ambulance had not arrived yet, and the girl could only lie beside him. , kept calling the boy's name, tears couldn't stop falling.
"Mommy mommy... ... ."
That was a mother and daughter. Maternal love is always the greatest existence in the world. In order to protect her daughter, the mother protected her daughter in her arms at the moment of the car accident, but she was seriously injured and died silently. It came in the blink of an eye and was constantly devouring her life.
The girl was still young, only five or six years old. She didn't even understand what death was. She just watched her mother lying on the ground bleeding, crying and calling.
"Axin, Axin..."
On the other side, a man who was in a dying state kept calling a person's name. Maybe it was the person he loved most. However, they might not even see each other for the last time, maybe... .Perhaps there is nothing left for them in this world...
Inexplicable fluctuations, stopped heartbeats, a hazy shadow emerged from the man's body. At the moment of death, a red ring box fell to the ground in his pocket. The box opened, and a ring rolled out. It fell and rolled to his hand.
Seeing that phantom, he became anxious and subconsciously reached out to grab the ring. However, it was unable to pass through and could not touch the real thing. He tried several times without any results.
"Don't try, you're already dead and now you have a soul, so you can't get it."
With a sigh, Jiang Chen saw this scene in his eyes, and felt a little unbearable in his heart. He immediately said: "Besides, you don't have much time to stay, only seven days. I will take advantage of this time to meet you." People, look at the things you are reluctant to part with, and don’t leave any regrets for yourself.”
"I am dead?!"
The man's soul couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this. His face was full of shock and disbelief.
Jiang Chen sighed: "You are already dead." As he spoke, he suddenly waved his hand, and immediately, the man's soul dissipated in the wind like blue smoke.
It seems that ordinary souls like this, if there is no special opportunity, can only stay in this world for seven days. After the first seven days, they will enter reincarnation on their own, or if their obsession is too strong and they cannot complete it, they will have resentment. Those who have no resentment will gradually become weak and become unconscious wandering souls.
The matter here has just ended, but over there, the cries of the two girls, one large and one small, are getting louder and louder. The lives of the young man named 'Mo Li' and the young mother are about to come to an end.
Death is right in front of us. Even if the miracle doctor is reincarnated, he will not be able to recover. There is an old saying about this situation:
The King of Hell wants you to die at the third watch, but you cannot leave anyone alive until the fifth watch!
This is the helplessness of life and death, the cycle of life and death that ordinary people cannot disobey.
Suddenly, an idea came to Jiang Chen's mind. He wanted to reverse life and death in order to test the way of heaven in this world. However, such an approach would be too cruel for the rescued person and his relatives. Got it!
What is cruel is not the high price, but the temptation and torture of the human heart!
As soon as his mind moved, he had already opened the boundary between life and death. This was a strange space between life and death. Only immortals, demons, gods, Buddhas, demons and ghosts could see and reach it. Of course, it seemed that someone as big as Jiang Chen could Those with magical powers are naturally not to mention. At the same time, he flicked out two gleams of light and penetrated the foreheads of the two girls, one big and one small. Suddenly, they felt dizzy and fell asleep. Their souls were pulled and came to Jiang Chen.
"Do you want to save your relatives? But bringing the dead back to life requires paying a considerable price! Only by signing a life-and-death contract with me and trading your lives to the people you want to save can their lives be extended. .”
Coming inexplicably between life and death, facing the mysterious Jiang Chen of unknown origin, and the bloody contract that inexplicably appeared before their eyes, the two girls, one big and one one small, instinctively felt a burst of inexplicable fear.
"who are you?"
After all, she was an adult, so the older girl couldn't help but ask with a bit of trembling. The scene in front of her made her feel like she was having a nightmare.
Jiang Chen immediately sneered in response: "It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that you can only save the people you want to save by signing a life-and-death contract with me!"
The girl asked: "What is a life and death contract?"
"Your IQ is really refreshing. Such a simple and obvious name, can't it make you understand? The so-called life and death contract is a contract of trading life and death. By signing the life and death contract, you can trade your life to others at will. People, as long as they are not dead, no matter how injured they are, they can continue to live.”
Jiang Chen raised a finger and said quietly: "Just a reminder, the transaction of life is extraordinary. If you want to save others, you must sacrifice your life in return. You must think carefully about it."
Hearing this, the girl couldn't help but hesitate.
But I never thought that at this moment, the little girl asked ignorantly: "Uncle, can I save my mother as long as I sign my name?"
Jiang Chen smiled and nodded: "Yes, little girl, you are so smart!"
The little girl then bit her finger and said, "But what if I can't write my own name?"
Jiang Chen said gently: "It doesn't matter, just put your hand on the life and death contract. But, little girl, do you want to think about it carefully? After all, with your mother's current situation, if you want to save her She must give twelve years of her life."
"It doesn't matter, as long as I can save my mother." The little girl said and directly pressed her chubby little hand on the life and death deal contract.
Immediately, the contract came into effect. In the little girl's body, a pure life essence flowed into the bloody contract book, and then transferred into her mother's body through the contract. In the blink of an eye, her fatal injuries suddenly stabilized. and begins to recover on its own.
Jiang Chen smiled and said to the little girl: "When you wake up, you will find that your mother is fine. Good boy, go back."
"Well! Thank you, uncle." The little girl said, her figure gradually blurred, and disappeared at the boundary between life and death. To her, this place was just an absurd and illusory dream.
After sending the little girl away, Jiang Chen's eyes turned and then fell on the older girl. He asked in a deep voice: "Time is running out, haven't you thought about it yet?"
