[Comprehensive] The Hundred Stories of Qingxingdeng

Chapter 37

Hungry Ghost knew that his current state was a bit abnormal, but he didn't want to change anything, because he really hadn't had such a relaxed and joyful mood for too long.

He no longer hated the little beggar, and no longer wanted to see the little beggar suffer from hunger, he began to want to save the little beggar—like saving himself.

The hungry ghost knew that the situation in front of him could not be without a reason, but he didn't want to pursue it.

The little beggar in front of me who started to go crazy because of hunger, hated and doubted the world, was so similar to him before, and even the choice he wanted to make in the end was so similar to him before.The hungry ghost almost began to think that the little beggar was himself.

Madness, hatred, suspicion, pain...

If the little beggar was allowed to continue to develop, if the little girl hadn't been driven out of the car by him, the hungry ghost would have no doubt that the little beggar in front of him would do the same thing as he did back then.

When he saw the frantically hungry little beggar pounce on him, the hungry ghost still maintained that strange feeling in his heart.This strange feeling of being connected to time and space, once again seeing the former self standing in front of him, made the hungry ghost not make any preparations for defense and counterattack, as if watching the former "self" rushing towards him, and then He bit down on his arm.

A piece of flesh was torn off his arm.

The body of a hungry ghost is not the same as that of a human, but the little beggar was able to bite off the flesh on this bus that connects the human world and the underworld.The meat turned into energy that can fill the stomach, and was swallowed by the little beggar.

Seeing the little beggar's full and happy expression on his face, the hungry ghost also felt happy.That kind of happiness is like seeing that the former self has not made any mistakes that cannot be made, and is happily filling his stomach.

Hungry ghosts are really happy.

The full little beggar was happy for a moment, but after realizing what he had done, he curled up there trembling and buried all his fears in his heart.

The hungry ghost ignored him, and the little beggar stopped talking.

The bus is still moving forward slowly, some people get on and some people get off.

Because of the meat of the hungry ghost, the little beggar's hunger was relieved, but after a day, he was still so hungry that he was about to faint.

Seeing the little beggar's appearance, the hungry ghost came to the little beggar's side and touched his head.His movements were gentle, looking at the terrifying appearance of the hungry ghost, no one could have imagined that his movements would be so gentle, and the eyes of the hungry ghost were also gentle.

The little beggar wanted to escape, but wanted to cry.

However, he couldn't move, and he didn't dare to speak. The hungry ghost sat beside him and bowed his head and said to him: "Although you are very hungry now, and even hate others, there are still some things you can't do. Don't let yourself regret it." " He tilted his head, and looked at the little beggar tenderly, "You like the little girl who brought you food, don't you? You are also very grateful to those who are kind to you, right?"

Under the gaze of the hungry ghost, the little beggar nodded for a long time.Though he had hated those people before when he was starving, he felt ashamed of himself for thinking that way when the hunger subsided.Even if he is a beggar, he can understand some things from his instinct.

After the Hungry Ghost nodded, the light in his eyes became hotter, and the expression on his face became more obvious.

He patted the little beggar and comforted him: "Don't be afraid...don't be afraid..." I will save you.

Even though the meat of the hungry ghost relieved the little beggar's hunger, as time went by, the little beggar's hunger was still getting worse.But this time, the little beggar never went crazy again, because whenever he couldn't bear the hunger and fell into an extremely weak drowsiness, he would not feel so hungry when he woke up again, and every time there would be food left in his mouth. A little meaty flavor.

It's not the smell of meat after cooking, but the "scent" of pure flesh and blood.

People may think that the blood left in animals is "fishy", but for hungry animals, it is sweet and delicious.

The little beggar didn't want to think about what it was, he became more and more quiet, as if he didn't exist.He kept thinking about when he could leave here, but he didn't know.

He didn't know whether the current situation was better, or it was better when he was driven crazy by hunger.

His heart was full of despair and helplessness, and there were some struggles that he didn't want to give up. He didn't even know why he was still alive.But isn't it natural to want to live?As a beggar, he has never thought about such a proposition, he just wants to live well...even...even now.

The little beggar accepted his current "life".

But the hunger became more and more obvious, and the time became shorter and shorter.

What the little beggar didn't want to make himself understand at the beginning was in front of him in the end—the hungry ghost really fed him his own meat.

He felt his thoughts alternate between lucid and hazy.

Excruciatingly painful when awake, dominated by hunger when dim.Probably after a long time, his heart became numb, but he gradually accepted this situation.

At that time, the hungry ghost no longer sat next to the bus door every day, but sat beside him.

From the beginning, the hungry ghost only fed the little beggar his own meat after he fainted from hunger. Later, he developed to come to the little beggar and let the hungry and crazy little beggar bite the meat directly from his body.

Whenever he ate the meat of a hungry ghost, the little beggar's sanity would recover for a period of time.

But his waking time is getting shorter and shorter...

later……

Afterwards, all ordinary people who got on the bus did not dare to go behind the bus.

Because as long as they walked to the back, they would see a child with a thin face leaning against the back seat, with a very misty smile on his face.But below his neck, his body seemed to have been bitten by a wild beast, dripping with blood and exposing white bones.His arms, his legs, his swollen belly, his chest...

all gone...

Even his internal organs are traces of being bitten.

It's hard to believe he's still alive, but the truth is that he's still conscious.

It was obviously painful, but he kept smiling.

It was another child lying on top of him and biting him. If you look carefully, the faces of these two children are strangely similar, like a pair of twins.But the face of the biting child was numb, but tears kept streaming from those eyes.

The conscious child leaning on the chair moved his lips, and he was still whispering: "It's okay...it's okay...don't do things that you regret..." Don't hate your sister, don't misunderstand your sister, Don't kill your sister...don't do these things that make you regret...

It doesn't matter if I eat myself, as long as my sister is still there...

After seeing the scene in front of them, all ordinary people will scream in horror. Many of them will faint directly, and some want to call the police. However, in this bus, their phones are not at all. Can't get out.When the bus stopped, they would all scramble and run out.They tell others what they see, but no one believes them.

This has been going on for a long time...

Until one day suddenly, the little beggar, who was obviously completely controlled by hunger, suppressed his crazy hunger.Dry tears were all over his face, and what flowed from those eyes was no longer tears, but bright red blood.

The little beggar looked at the hungry ghost and said, "I'm sorry."

It was extremely difficult for him to speak, but he still said it, and then the little beggar bumped his head against the corner of a chair beside him.

Bleeding.

The little beggar died.

The hungry ghost, who was still panting slightly, had obvious surprise and sadness in his eyes. He looked at the little beggar's body, and tears welled up in those eyes that hadn't shed tears for many years.

He saw the pain and self-blame in the little beggar's heart, he knew the madness of the little beggar when he was controlled by hunger, but the little beggar was able to restrain the crazy hunger, just to say sorry to him.

He knew how difficult it was.

And the little beggar didn't really succumb to the madness of hunger...

Does this mean that if he was a little beggar... he would do the same thing?Because he was so similar to the little beggar that he thought the little beggar was another self.

The bus stopped slowly.

The driver left his seat and came to the little beggar.She picked up the little beggar and put it on the seat beside her, then raised her hand to brush the little beggar's eyes, and the half-open eyes were closed.

Then the little beggar's body gradually disappeared before the eyes of the hungry ghost and the driver, as if it had never existed.

This time, the hungry ghost's eyes were even more surprised.He frantically turned his eyeballs to look at the driver, trying to understand what happened.

Although he has been sitting on this bus for more than 60 years, he has never talked to the driver even a word, and the driver has never approached him.It was the first time that it was so close today.

After the little beggar's body dissipated, the driver turned to the hungry ghost and took off the hat from his head.

The face that seemed to be invisible forever became gradually clear in front of the hungry ghost.

It was a very ordinary-looking woman's face, and the outline made the hungry ghost feel surprisingly familiar. The woman lowered her eyes and looked at the hungry ghost. There was an extremely gentle emotion in it. After a long time, she said: "I have long forgiven you. You are gone." She slowly squatted down and looked at the hungry ghost, "Now... have you forgiven yourself?"

The hungry ghost looked at the woman in front of him, he blinked...

The hazy water light made him almost unable to see the face of the person in front of him clearly, and he blinked again, letting tears fall from the sockets of his eyes.He opened his mouth as if he was suffocated, and called out in an extremely thin voice, "Sister... sister..."

The woman had a gentle and nostalgic expression on her face, she looked at the hungry ghost and nodded, and agreed.

This time, more tears fell from the hungry ghost's eyes.

The woman raised her hand to wipe the tears off his face, but the hungry ghost cried even more uncontrollably. He gasped and asked, "Sister...you have grown up..."

"It's been so many years, even in the underworld, I have grown up." The woman gently brushed the hungry ghost's messy hair aside, and sighed softly, "After I came to the underworld, because I was very worried about you, So I begged Master Yan Mo not to be reincarnated. Later, you came soon, but you still couldn’t see me.”

"I watched Lord Yan Mo sentence you to the Hungry Ghost Realm, and I have been standing by your side...but no matter how I call, you can't hear my voice."

"Your Majesty Judge said that you blamed yourself very much." And she could also feel the self-blame in her brother's heart.

"I watched how you spent 500 years in the hungry ghost realm, until you finally redeemed your sins and could be reincarnated... But you didn't reincarnate... For so many years, my sister has been by your side all the time, Waiting for the day when you can see me." Speaking of this, the woman finally showed a gentle smile on her face, "Until today, you finally saw me."

Because the hungry ghost has never been reincarnated and the soul is about to dissipate, the woman is more anxious than anyone else.For a period of time, from the kidnapped girl to the little beggar, they were all brought out by women in order to let the hungry ghosts come out of their hearts.

They are not real human beings, but the embodiment of women's own power.

And she has such power only because she wants to save her younger brother.

"Do you remember what my sister said... No matter what happens, my sister will protect you." She looked at the hungry ghost without leaving her eyes, "You were so young back then...you blame yourself later After so many years... my sister has long since stopped blaming you."

"So, please spare my dear brother too, will you?" she said, smiling.

The tears of the hungry ghost rushed out.

His body had recovered to its original state at some point, he hugged his sister, and finally wept loudly.

The author has something to say: The story of the hungry ghost is over~

Can everyone understand?

Starting with the kidnapped girl, many of the people who got on the bus were real and non-existent.My sister used a lot of "people" to persuade the hungry ghost, but it didn't work

Until the little beggar appeared, the hungry ghost seemed to see himself, and then the hungry ghost wanted to "save" the little beggar, as if he was saving himself.

In the end, the hungry ghost looked at the little beggar's choice, felt the little beggar's mood, and finally let go of his knots, and then saw his sister, and got her forgiveness_(:з」∠)_

The protagonist of the next story is Miss White Wolf~
