In a blink of an eye, I was in a strange living room.
Xu Gang passed through my body.
His wife was lying in the bedroom playing with her tablet. She just raised her eyelids slightly and hummed "Come back."
Xu Gang said "Yeah", took his pajamas and went to the bathroom.
After a while, I heard the sound of water coming from inside.
After watching an episode of the TV series, Xu Gang's wife threw the tablet on the bed, opened the bathroom door, and stood at the door and muttered: "How was your talk? What does he want? What did your father say? It's with Xini again. Right? I told you, that old man is biased to the point of being biased. I even doubt whether you are his biological son. He is capable of playing tricks on his son. Xu Tie is his precious child, and he knows everything. Thinking about Xu Tie. You deserve to be Xu Tie's wife for the rest of your life. Just watch, Xu Tie's son is old and has reached the age of marriage. The old man will definitely ask you for a house and money. Maybe the red envelope he gave the woman when he met will It's all your fault. You're stupid. After all these years, you still believe in him. How stupid are you, and he's still guarding you. You asked him and his mother to move here a long time ago. What did he say? I see your mother He and Xu Tie were so angry that they died. Good people, with no illness or pain, suddenly got liver cancer. They were living well.… "
Xu Gang's wife seems to be full of resentment, she talks endlessly, and she says some things repeatedly.
There was a constant sound of water running in the toilet.
The sound of the shower was constant.
Xu Gang should have stayed still.
I was still thinking about the green-faced ghost just now, and Xu Gang's wife kept talking about it. I couldn't help but listen to it, and I felt sad in my heart.
Especially not long ago, I just read the Duan family’s commission records.
These are two completely different families.
To say that the identities of family members are complicated, the Duan family, which has five children and a fourth-generation baby, should be even more complicated. However, when it comes to the bonds of family ties, the Duan family wins again, by more than one margin.
Probably because of this, Mr. Duan found Ye Qing, and their family worked together to allow the two old men to stay in the earth for fourteen more years. And now the Xu family...
With the sound of water and the nagging voice of a woman, an idea suddenly popped into my head.
"It would be great if dad were no longer here. There would be no such thing."
I was shocked.
The sharp idea comes from Xu Gang.
"At that time, it was my father who fell ill and died, and it was my mother who survived until now. Everything was easy to explain."
Xu Gang imagined further.
"I can take Mom over. The house will be given to Xu Tie, and there will be less contact between the two families. He will not think about Mom even if he has nothing to do. If he comes to ask Mom for money, he is also asking for money."
"...At least, mom won't be like dad..."
"Dad is the one who dies first."
I couldn't help but look towards the toilet...
The sharp sting turned into a dull pain.
My sight was mostly blocked by Xu Gang's wife.
I couldn't see Xu Gang, but his increasingly strong thoughts entered my mind.
Is it Xu Gang? !
His death was caused by the backlash of the green-faced ghost, or was it due to other reasons
I'm not a pervert. When Xu Gang entered the toilet, I avoided him and cut off contact with him.
Now, I hurriedly passed by Xu Gang's wife and entered the toilet to take a look.
I didn't feel the malice of the green-faced ghost, but maybe that's because the green-faced ghost hasn't been attracted by Xu Gang yet.
That strong thought was still lingering in Xu Gang's mind.
I passed by Xu Gang's wife, and the water vapor from the shower room in the toilet came from the pavement.
I smelled the overpowering smoke.
The thoughts that entered my mind about Xu Gang also changed.
"It's because of me at that time... That's why dad... It's because of me..."
Self-blame, guilt, fear and uneasiness...
The water vapor in front of me turned into smoke at some point.
The old man's voice that he heard during the day rang out.
"... That's it now. Xu Gang, you don't want the house and the compensation, right?"
I couldn't help but raise my hand and wave it away, trying to drive away the smoke.
But my actions have no impact on the real environment. When the smoke rises, I am the one without substance.
"Yes. I don't want the house. Dad's inheritance is given to Xu Tie." Xu Gang's voice was hoarse, "I don't want my original share either."
"Is this law feasible?" the old man asked.
"Okay, just go through the formalities." Someone answered.
One benefit of being disembodied is that I can float around the room.
I found Xu Gang, who was shrouded in smoke.
He looked very ugly. Sitting next to him was his wife, her face even more ugly.
Xu Gang didn't smoke, but the ashtray in front of him was full.
Almost all of the other men in the room had a cigarette in hand and were puffing away.
Xu Tie's face was also ugly and a little distorted.
Xu Tie's wife was quite satisfied, and now she no longer looked like a shrew.
I don't know what happened before.
Searching the smoke-filled room, I couldn't find the green-faced ghost. I only saw relatives of the Xu family, all looking at Xu Tie with disdain.
I floated to the bedroom.
There were some young people in the bedroom. From the looks of them, there was a young man in his twenties who was as isolated as Xu Tie.
"That's enough. You have completed the formalities and the matter is settled. From now on, when your father is buried, you can all go back to your own lives and live a good life." The old man stood up with his knees up.
There were people helping me nearby.
"Second uncle, you're leaving now." Xu Tie said something meaningless.
"Well, let's go. We are getting old and can't bear it anymore. Okay, let's do this." The old man waved his hands and walked out without looking back.
The others were noisy and followed suit. These people ignored Xu Tie, but greeted Xu Gang, and then walked straight away.
Xu Gang took two steps forward but did not leave.
Some of the people leaving just came downstairs and said loudly and without hesitation: "I said Xu Tie is not a thing. Xu Gang has let his brother live his whole life. It is because he is filial. He listens to all the messy ideas of the fifth uncle. What age is he? He’s the eldest brother, and he doesn’t owe his younger brother anything.”
"The matters at home... Now that the fifth uncle is dead, there is no need to associate with Xu Tie in the future. What do you care about their brothers?"
…
Amidst the chaotic sounds, I turned my head and looked at Xu Gang, whose face was ashen and defeated.
I felt connected with Xu Gang, but I didn't get any feedback at all.
Xu Gang "killed" Xu Guangzong because of a momentary thought, and then "killed" himself because of self-blame and guilt
I guessed, and just as I was feeling a little emotional, I suddenly felt a hint of malice.
Without thinking, I rushed back to Xu's house.
In the mourning hall, a half-human-sized green-faced ghost lay on the wall, its scarlet tongue hanging on Xu Guangzong's last photo.
I felt happy and hurriedly stretched out my hand to the green-faced ghost.
If we take action now, we may not be able to save Xu Guangzong, but if we can catch the old man who feeds the green-faced ghost and save Xu Gang, it will be a victory.
His fingers touched the green-faced ghost's skin.
I suddenly became excited and met the green-faced ghost's scarlet eyes.
In those eyes, there was a cold light like a beast.
This thing, at this moment, showed its fangs to me! Use all your limbs to rush towards me!
