Li Jinbao became agitated when his future quality of life became a concern. He pointed at Ding Lifeng and shouted, "I knew you stole my things. Return them to me now, or I'll make you look like me."
The naked threat made Ding Lifeng explode. He didn't hear the man say anything about him stealing things, and he just wanted to have a good fight with him.
Ding Lianhu was the calmest. He comforted his grandson for a while before looking at Li Jinbao: "You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. Although my grandson may look down on you, he will never steal anything."
Li Jinbao obviously didn't believe it. He sneered and said, "As for this tutor who often comes to mess with my stall, I don't believe he can't do something sneaky.
Otherwise, you can ask the woman in the video what she meant by her words. She was the one who started the topic.”
Su Yan hadn't expected Li Jinbao to resort to such a tactic. She stared at him until he was in a trance before she spoke: "Mr. Li, you are wrongly accusing a good man. Although the things were indeed taken away by the Ding family, it was a ghost who took them, not a human."
"Ghost? Don't talk nonsense. I don't believe that there are such creatures as ghosts in the world."
"Oh, really? I remember your treasure was given to you by a ghost. Why are you denying it now? Aren't you afraid that the ghost who made the deal with you will get angry and come back to take revenge on you?"
Maybe it was a psychological effect, but after Su Yan said these words, Li Jinbao felt that the air around him was even colder. He was so cold that he involuntarily wanted to hold his clothes tightly.
He did make a deal with the ghost, but these things cannot be said openly. For now, he can only insist on not admitting it.
"How could I, an ordinary person, make a deal with a ghost? If I really had such power, would I still be a beggar on the overpass who everyone would look down upon?"
Su Yan had expected him to be stubborn and had no intention of hearing the truth from him: "Since you don't want to admit it, I'll recall it for you."
"Your encounter with Lao Gui dates back to three months ago. That day, you were exposed by Mr. Ding and ran back to your rented house in disgrace.
Until the evening, you still couldn't swallow the anger in your heart, and you left the house angrily, wanting to find a place to vent your anger.
But that day was like Mercury retrograde for you. You couldn't even get a taxi. The only taxi that came disliked your outfit and refused to take you.
In a fit of rage, you run to the nearby convenience store and buy several bottles of wine, then find a deserted place to drink while cursing the person who affected you.
When the night is dark, you, half drunk, stumble home, only to find yourself in a desolate cemetery.
This cemetery was originally the burial place for the elderly in the village. After the village was demolished, it became deserted.
I don't know where you got the kindness from that day, but you put the unfinished wine on a weed-covered grave.
And your unintentional action just happened to touch the old ghost who had been ignored for a long time.
Seeing your miserable state, he decided to help you. That very night, he appeared in your dream."
Li Jinbao was woken up from a deep sleep. He looked so gloomy that he could even lower his head: "Who is looking for death by disturbing my sweet dreams in the middle of the night? Believe it or not, I will beat you to death."
Seeing that he had disturbed the young man, the old man quickly appeared and said, "Young man, do you still remember me?"
Li Jinbao looked at the old man who suddenly appeared and jumped onto the bed in fear. "Uncle, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have disturbed you by going to the cemetery. Please don't be angry with me."
The old ghost looked at him with a mixture of laughter and tears: "My friend, I'm not here to cause you any trouble. I just want to thank you for your concern for me today.
It's been a long time since anyone bought me a drink since my son moved away.
To thank you, I decided to help you accomplish something. Is there anything that is difficult for you now?"
Li Jinbao's first reaction was the boy who had been making trouble, but he didn't say it out loud. One reason was that he was afraid that the ghost in front of him would refuse to hurt anyone, making him waste an opportunity in vain.
Secondly, he wanted to find a small matter to test the ghost's ability. If he was really that powerful, he could build a good relationship with him and coax him into helping him all the time.
After a brief thought, he embellished the story he had told hundreds of times, moving the old ghost to tears.
"So, Grandpa, I don't have any skills now, and I can only rely on begging to earn money to support my family.
But my healthy body is a hidden danger, and there are always people who use it to attack me.
If only you could find a way to make others think that I am really disabled, then I will be able to earn more money and improve my family's life.
Of course, this is all my beautiful fantasy. If you find it difficult, forget it. I am thinking of other ways."
His filial words aroused the old ghost's pity: "Don't worry, this is nothing to me. Come to my grave tomorrow night and I will give you a treasure so that you can control your body freely."
After saying this, he left in a hurry without waiting for Li Jinbao's answer to find a solution for him.
The next day, although Li Jinbao felt that these things were a little unreal, thinking of the old ghost's solemn promise, he still went to the grave again with the idea of giving it a try.
In order to maintain his kind image, he bought a lot of things and distributed them to other unattended graves.
The old man hiding in the dark nodded with satisfaction and handed him the thing in his hand.
"This is the elixir I obtained from the snake fairy. As long as you apply this potion on your body and follow the spell I said, you can freely remove any part of your body."
Li Jinbao poured a little potion on his hand with half belief and half doubt, and then chanted the spell according to the old ghost, and his right hand really fell to the ground.
He hugged Lao Gui excitedly and began to imagine the wonderful life he would have after having this treasure. By then, many people would be shocked by his real wounds, which would bring him huge wealth.
In order to keep Lao Gui, his cash cow, he said a lot of nice things, which made Lao Gui smile and think that he was the best kid in the world.
"After you took the potion home, you hesitated for a while, and finally chose to use it on your legs. After all, the area there is larger and others can see it more clearly.
Later, perhaps with external support, your business becomes the best in the surrounding area, and many people will stop in their hurry for you and put money into your bowl.
You can also take out some money from that to continue to win over the old ghost and let him continue to work for you.
So, the reason why you are so anxious to ask people to help you find the murderer, and the reason why you are vague about the lost things, is because the things you lost are your legs.
Of course you wouldn't dare publicize such a strange thing, you can only slowly look for it."
