I run a funeral home, I don't know how to teach people how to slay demons

The strong earthquake instantly turned the entire community into ruins. Lu Changsheng stood alone on the ruins, staring blankly at his surroundings.

Time seemed to freeze, and even the dust in the sky stopped moving, just frozen in the air.

There was only a light ball that kept flashing with a faint light, gradually expanding in front of Lu Changsheng, and slowly forming a circular light gate emitting a faint light.

Lu Changsheng tried various methods, but he couldn't affect everything in this world.

In desperation, he could only pin his hopes on this last light gate.

He took a step forward and passed through the light gate, and the world in front of him changed again.

Lu Changsheng felt as if he had entered a ruin, surrounded by smoke and dust, and everything in his sight was hazy.

In the dim and lightless environment, a low voice sounded beside Lu Changsheng.

"Xiao Li, cough... cough... Xiao Li, don't sleep, now is not the time to sleep." The man spoke quickly, and the smoke and dust in the sky went into his throat through his open mouth, causing him to cough non-stop.

"Xiao Li! Xiao Li!"

As the man continued to shout, another childish voice finally sounded.

"Dad... cough... Dad... Where's Mom?" Xiao Lu Li felt groggy and felt something warm running down his cheeks. His consciousness was also very fuzzy.

"Mom..." The man's voice choked. After a few seconds of silence, he said with great difficulty, "Mom, it's okay... She's trapped on the other side... The other side..."

"You... cough... cough... Don't sleep, we... We will definitely be rescued..."

"Dad... I'm so sleepy..." Xiao Lu Li felt his eyelids fighting constantly, and there was no place on his body that didn't hurt.

Now he just wanted to close his eyes and have a good sleep, even if it was just for a while.

Seeing that Xiao Lu Li did not respond to him for a long time, the man anxiously called his son's name again, "Xiao Li! Don't sleep!"

"Xiao Li, today is your birthday, right?"

"Can you share half of your birthday wish with Dad?"

"Dad... cough... I want to make a wish too."

Xiao Lu Li forced his eyes to close and opened his lips with difficulty, "Dad... I can, but making a wish on someone else's birthday may not work..."

"It's okay..." The man smiled and wanted to reach out and touch his son's head, but found that he couldn't do it.

"Dad... I hope you can grow up healthy and live a hundred years."

Xiao Lu Li's head became more and more dizzy, and he could only answer subconsciously by instinct, "I also hope... Mom and Dad can... live a hundred years..."

The father and son talked intermittently in this cramped and turbid environment.

Most of the time, it was Dad Lu who asked questions, from simple calculations to future plans. He kept asking questions, keeping Xiao Lu Li in a state of thinking.

I don't know how long it took.

Finally, there was a "crackling" sound of rubble being turned over overhead.

A small beam of light shot into Lu Li's home along the gap and shone directly on his face.

The long-lost light was a little dazzling, and he had to close his eyes.

But just like that, he almost fell asleep again.

"There are three more people here!!"

"Come here quickly!!"

"Two adults and a child!"

"The child is still breathing! Adults..."

"Save the child! Hurry up, hurry up!"

More and more beams of light were thrown in, and they were getting warmer and warmer.

Little Lu Li forced himself to open his eyes and saw a group of uncles wearing masks, struggling to pull him out.

His body was already extremely weak, and even if he tried his best, he could only make a hoarse low moan.

"And my dad..."

"And my mom..."

No one paid attention to little Lu Li, but just carried him on a stretcher, and two people carried him one after the other.

Little Lu Li twisted his neck with difficulty, allowing himself to look back at the collapsed house for the last time.

Half of his mother's body was trapped in the ruins, and only half of her body could be barely recognized.

Dad's legs were also pressed down by the collapsed ceiling. He still maintained his last posture before his death, with his hands on the ground, and his back against the crushed rubble, leaving a small space in front of him.

That blank space was where Little Lu Li had just been.

Tears instantly filled Little Lu Li's eyes. He opened his mouth and tried desperately to scream, but he couldn't make a sound. He could only watch himself being carried farther and farther away.

Soon, nothing could be seen.

The scene stopped here, and a light door with a faint glow appeared in front of Lu Changsheng again.

......

With the first experience, he knew very well that after crossing this door, he could reach the next scene.

Lu Changsheng clenched his fists and then released them several times. After taking a final look at the mess on the floor, he took a deep breath and stepped through the light gate.

Everything around him was like bubbles in the water, blurring and fading quickly, distorting and reshaping.

When he looked around again, Lu Changsheng was already in a clean and tidy bedroom.

Little Lu Li curled up quietly in a corner of the bed. He had grown up and now looked like a high school student.

Lu Changsheng wanted to reach out and touch Little Lu Li's head, but found that his arm went straight through the child in front of him. He was still wandering outside this world.

Retracting his hand helplessly, Lu Changsheng turned around and began to explore the house.

This house was very clean. It was a new building built by the government above the collapsed town. Compared with the old community where Little Lu Li lived before, the environment here has been greatly improved.

Green plants were planted on a large area, and the fitness equipment and children's slides that Little Lu Li envied were also filled in every corner of the community.

Except for the community that was originally full of people, only a few households now have bright lights, and everything seems to have changed for the better.

However, Lu Changsheng knew very well that no matter how badly the collapsed house was damaged, it could be rebuilt.

But the empty space in my heart can never be filled again.

Lu Changsheng stared blankly at the three pairs of shoes placed at the entrance. Two of them obviously did not belong to Lu Li, and they were already very badly damaged.

No matter how many times they were washed, they could not be restored to their original appearance.

But Lu Li still kept them, just to open the door every day when he returned home, so that he could feel that his parents were still around.

Even if it was only for a moment...

Lu Li's mumbling in his sleep came from behind, intermittently.

"Why... leave me alone..."

"Why... only me alone..."

Lu Changsheng wanted to answer his question, but he couldn't do it at all.

The hazy sunlight poured into the room through the glass on the windowsill, and everything around him was still again.

A light door slowly took shape and appeared in front of Lu Changsheng.
