Live ghost hunting: Boss, she raises a ghost king instead
Chapter 38 The suffering of others
In the early morning, the sky just revealed a touch of fish belly white...
A woman in red riding a shared tram was speeding on the asphalt road. The cold morning air made her nose hurt and her eyes were red, as if her lungs were freezing.
Jiang Buyan stared blankly at the road in front of him, listening to Dao Xing's instructions and passing through one intersection after another.
"So what if I tell you? I already said it's a matter of mutual consent. If they are willing to return the bracelet, I will eat shit!"
"Hey! How come you, little girl, are more stubborn than a donkey?"
"It's true that you won't look back until you hit the wall. Then go ahead, persuade, and become a Bodhisattva. See if anyone believes in you."
"I'll wait here. As long as one person is willing to return the bracelet, I will suspend business for a year!"
The voice of the tomb guard rang in Jiang Buyan's ears again. His tone was confident and proud, as if he was sure that those people would not return the bracelet.
But Jiang Buyan didn’t believe it...
Why would anyone be willing to exchange their precious life for something else?
She didn't believe it. According to the address given by the tomb guard, she finally came to the door of a family buying jade bracelets.
She stood firmly at the door, daring not to knock on the door, like a tree stump.
"Who are you looking for?" Just as she was hesitating, a gentle voice suddenly sounded from behind her.
Jiang Buyan hurriedly looked back and saw a young and pretty woman with short hair. She was holding a bag of steaming food in her hand. The strange smell floated into Jiang Buyan's nose through the packaging box. The spicy and stinky smell was very exciting. She couldn't help but frown.
"Ah, I'm sorry, the snail powder has infected you, so I'll stay away from you." Fu Ning explained sheepishly, then took a few steps back before asking again: "So, what's the matter with you? Standing in front of my house?"
"Your home?" Jiang Buyan shrugged his nose and suddenly realized it when he saw the jade bracelet on her wrist.
The woman in front of me is the one who bought the bracelet.
Jiang Buyan looked at her slightly apologetic smile and didn't know how to speak.
"Little sister? What's wrong with you?" Seeing that she was dazed, Fu Ning waved his hand in front of her to try to attract her attention.
"The bracelet on your hand..."
"Ah? You said this, do you like it?"
"Well, can you sell it to me?" Jiang Buyan asked seriously.
"Uh... This won't work. This bracelet is very important to me." Fu Ning was obviously stunned when he heard that she wanted to buy a bracelet.
"Compared to life..."
Jiang Buyan raised his head and looked at the friendly woman in front of him, and asked again: "Compared with life, which one is more important?"
Fu Ning's expression gradually became panicked as he listened to her words, "What are you talking about? What's not alive yet? If nothing happens, I will go home for dinner. If I delay any longer, the snail noodles will get cold."
With that said, she walked past Jiang Buyan and hurried home.
"I ask, how does it compare to life?" Jiang Buyan lowered his head and grabbed Fu Ning who was about to escape. "You know, this bracelet is stealing your life span."
"Ah? What nonsense are you kidding?" Fu Ning tried to break free in a panic, but Jiang Buyan's strength was so strong that she could only be left where she was.
Jiang Buyan's eyes lingered on the jade bracelet for a long time, and he said in a calm tone: "What did you exchange for your life? Is it worth it?"
"It's worth it..." Seeing that he couldn't be fooled, Fu Ning simply told the girl in front of him frankly.
Her instinct told her that the child meant no harm.
"No matter how long you live, it's still worth it." Fu Ning smiled sadly, and then asked: "Are you satisfied with the answer?"
"If you are satisfied, please let me go. I'm going to have breakfast."
Jiang Buyan raised his head, looked at Fu Ning in confusion, and begged: "You...can you tell me, what did you exchange for your life?"
"Healthy... healthy body."
Fu Ning raised the hot snail noodles in his hand, shook his head at Jiang Buyan and said, "If I didn't have this bracelet in exchange, I might never be able to eat so much delicious food in my life."
"How boring would it be to live a life where you can only eat bland food every day."
"But that's life..." Jiang Buyan repeated stubbornly, "That's precious life."
Fu Ning sighed, and then said: "Little sister, did you also meet that old man? Hey~ In fact, I also hesitated like you at the time, but when I think about it carefully, I really want to spend the long time in confusion. What about your whole life? Or do you want to live a short life happily?"
"I don't know." Jiang Buyan looked at her, not knowing how to answer.
She could see that this woman's life was being absorbed by the jade bracelet every moment, even if it was very small, it was still passing by.
Fu Ning smiled brightly and said, "Everyone has different choices. I choose to be happy and short-lived."
"Did you know? Before I got the jade bracelet, I had been suffering from a skin disease called urticaria."
She paused for a while, and seeing Jiang Buyan's expression of doubt, she continued: "It's a skin disease that relapses. Although it's not fatal, it's very torturous."
"Every time I get sick, my whole body feels itchy and painful, as if there are countless bugs crawling around and countless silver needles pricking me. Not only that, I also have nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. If I scratch it with my hands, the skin will swell immediately. , large areas of redness and swelling appear, and sometimes ulceration occurs.”
Jiang Buyan felt very sad as she listened. She asked with difficulty, "Can it be cured?"
"Maybe it can be cured? But I haven't been cured. I can only rely on medicine to alleviate it. Moreover, the urticaria is really disgusting. It not only makes me unable to eat and sleep well, but also becomes very ugly. It makes me even more uncomfortable when I am exposed to the sun. "
When Fu Ning said this, he couldn't help but laugh at himself: "At that time, I even felt that I was almost like a vampire. I looked like I had no energy and no desire to live."
"But I'm fine now. Although I've lost a few days to live, at least I can live like a normal person." She raised her wrist, revealing the green jade bracelet and continued: "Thanks to it, I realized that I had been sleeping for a long time. The sky is so comfortable, and the sunshine is so warm. More importantly, I can eat what I want and do what I want. I no longer have to apply medicine all the time, and I don’t have to worry about soiling my clothes."
Jiang Buyan took a deep breath, looked directly at the woman in front of him who was smiling and telling her pain, and suddenly understood what the tomb guard said last night.
She bowed solemnly towards Fu Ning and said apologetically, "I'm sorry."
