For many years afterwards, I could clearly recall that morning, the vast white world, and the taxi that drove to the end of the white world.
I don’t know why, but later I saw heavier snow, and the world was covered with ice and snow every year, but I never saw that scene again, where the whole world was white.
I was depressed for a few days, even though I knew that was the best outcome for me.
For Gu Xiaorou, it should be the same. She should really leave this sad place and go to the outside world to see the different scenery.
I even dreamed of that kind of scene, where a person walks into this world, and everywhere he goes is full of unknown and different scenery.
I just don’t know if she will come back here again after seeing the prosperity.
"If it weren't for her being cursed, I actually wouldn't mind having one more of her."
That day Chen Ling suddenly spoke to me seriously.
I know she is talking about Gu Xiaorou.
At that moment, I suddenly felt inexplicably sad. Chen Ling was always so tolerant of me, beyond the tolerance and understanding that all normal women should have. Maybe this has something to do with the fact that she is not a normal person, but in the end, I feel guilty after all. her.
"Silly girl, you are enough for me."
I touched her head dotingly, and then hugged her.
The days seemed to become much duller all of a sudden. I didn’t go out to visit relatives during the Chinese New Year, so I accompanied Chen Ling to Wolong Ridge to pay New Year greetings to Chen Yunqi and the others.
The rest of the time, I stayed at home almost every day, because the shop was not open during the Chinese New Year.
To be honest, I am really not used to my life suddenly becoming so dull.
On the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, Li Laoliu suddenly came to our house to pay New Year greetings. I guess it was because I had introduced business to him before, so he brought two bottles of wine with him.
Relatives came to the house during the Chinese New Year, and naturally they wanted to entertain them with good wine and food, but Li Laoliu didn't know what happened today, so he kept eating there. While I was watching, he ate eight pancakes.
I know that rural people have big appetites, but this was obviously too much, and looking at Li Laoliu's appearance, it seemed like he wasn't full yet. He grabbed a handful of peanuts before leaving.
I immediately felt something was wrong, so I went to Li Laoliu's house by the way to pay his New Year's greetings.
After coming over, Li Laoliu put the wine and food on the table and started eating without saying a word, and also brought a large plate of fried cakes.
"Uncle Six, you keep eating, are you feeling hungry?"
I couldn't help it anymore, so I asked.
"I'm hungry. I'm also quite puzzled. Didn't I just eat this at your house?"
Li Laoliu was stunned for a moment, with a confused expression on his face.
But when he saw the food on the table, he couldn't help it anymore, so he directly picked up a pancake and ate it hungrily.
"Uncle Six, don't eat it yet."
I quickly snatched the fried cake from Li Laoliu's hand and said, "You've got it right."
"Are you on the right track?"
Li Laoliu looked at me with some confusion, "Can I still be hungry all the time if I'm in trouble?"
As he said this, he glanced at the pork head on the table, and couldn't help it anymore. He reached out and grabbed a piece and stuffed it into his mouth.
He looked really hungry like this, and his mouth was watering when he saw the food. But when I saw his belly, it was already bulging. If he continued to eat, I was afraid that he would be stuffed to death.
"Sixth Aunt, get a rope quickly."
I quickly greeted Li Laoliu and his wife.
"Huh? What do you need a rope for, Eleven?"
Li Laoliu and his mother-in-law asked puzzledly outside the door.
"Don't ask Aunt Six for now. Get the rope quickly. Uncle Six is going to get into trouble."
As I said that, I directly pulled Li Laoliu off the kang, and then pressed him on the chair.
"What happened... Eleven?"
Li Laoliu was also shocked when he heard what I said.
"You're haunted by a starving ghost."
I said with a frown.
I kept eating like this and still couldn't get enough. There was no other reason to explain it except starvation.
Li Laoliu and his mother-in-law didn't dare to ask any more questions, so they quickly brought a rope in.
At this time, Li Laoliu looked at the food on the table, and he couldn't help it anymore, and tears flowed from the corners of his mouth. But fortunately, he was still able to stay rational and restrained for the time being, and did not rush to eat.
I quickly tied Li Laoliu to a chair with a rope, and then stuffed his nostrils with cotton soaked in kerosene. The smell of kerosene was strong, so he couldn't smell the aroma of food.
But Li Laoliu was still drooling.
"Uncle Six, have you encountered anything evil in the past two days?"
I lit a cigarette, sat next to him and started asking Li Laoliu.
This kind of thing must be understood clearly, otherwise there is no way to start.
"No?"
Li Laoliu thought for a while and said, "I went to a house in the town yesterday to help sew up a corpse. By the way, the stomach of the corpse was broken and the stomach was bursting. It seems that it was eaten to death."
Speaking of this, Li Laoliu himself also reacted, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
"Then the starving ghost probably didn't run away."
I said with a solemn expression.
This thing Li Laoliu just went to sew up a corpse, but he didn't expect it to be entangled. It looked like he should be very vicious.
"Eleven, why don't you give me a bite first? It should be fine after one bite."
Li Laoliu looked at the food on the table, his mouth watering.
"If you eat any more, you will die."
I said and quickly asked Li Laoliu and his mother-in-law to remove all the food.
"What should I do? I'm really hungry?"
Li Laoliu had already begun to struggle uncontrollably.
It was a good thing that he was tied up now, otherwise he would definitely not be able to hold him back.
"Be patient for now."
I quickly ran to the kitchen, grabbed a handful of ashes from under the stove, then came back and stuffed it into Li Laoliu's mouth.
Li Laoliu's entire face suddenly turned blue, and then he began to twitch crazily, followed by a burst of crazily vomiting.
He vomited out most of what he had eaten, and Li Laoliu was completely exhausted from vomiting, sitting on a chair breathing heavily.
"Are you still hungry now, Uncle Six?"
I quickly stepped forward and pinched my nose and asked him.
At this moment, Li Laoliu's chest and body were covered with vomit. The smell made me want to vomit.
"Not hungry anymore."
Li Laoliu's whole face was pinched, and it looked like he was feeling quite uncomfortable.
"My stomach just hurts a little, and it feels like it's split."
I guessed that he had stretched his stomach, which is why he felt stomach pain, but it certainly wouldn't burst.
It's a good thing that I stopped him in time, otherwise if I let him eat again, he would probably die of exhaustion soon.
After I untied Li Laoliu, he hurriedly went to the next door room to change his clothes, but the smell on his body would not go away for a long time.
Seeing that it was getting dark, I quickly stood up and said goodbye. Li Laoliu was planning to keep me here to finish the meal. I thought to myself, how could I possibly eat at this moment?
I didn't even eat dinner when I got home and went straight upstairs to rest. My stomach still feels churned up.
But not long after he fell asleep, Li Laoliu suddenly ran over again, saying in a panic that his daughter had been troubled by the starving ghost again.
