"Alright, I'll take your request."
Qiqi raised her fingers and forcibly pulled the gluttonous ghost up from the ground. "Tell me everything about you and your girlfriend."
The gluttonous ghost was suddenly lifted off the ground by a gentle yet forceful force. After a moment of stunned silence, he came to his senses and began to recount his tragic experiences.
Li Jun, nicknamed "Full-Fed Ghost," was an ordinary working-class man.
His girlfriend's name is Tang Xin.
He met his girlfriend at work; he was a deliveryman, and she was a girl working at a bubble tea shop.
He fell in love with his girlfriend at first sight and put in a lot of effort to win her over. The two had a great relationship and had already met each other's parents, who were both very satisfied. They had planned to save money for another year, then go back to their hometown to buy a house and get married. Who knew they would encounter something like this?
The reason was that Li Jun and Tang Xin had a mutual friend. When they came out at the beginning of this year, that friend said he had found a way to make money. The work was easy and the money was quick. He asked them if they wanted to go.
At first, Li Jun was also worried, fearing it might be a "pig butchering scam".
But seeing his friend earn a five-figure salary in his first month, he couldn't resist the temptation.
After discussing it with my girlfriend, I decided to quit my job and join my friend.
As a result, he lost his life there!
They were taken to a factory area by their friends and held down by several thugs. The leader was a fat man in a suit and leather shoes, and next to him was an old man wearing a black and gold embroidered Tang suit.
The person who forced him to eat and gave his girlfriend strong drugs was that old man in the Tang suit.
After he was stuffed to death, when he opened his eyes again, he found himself controlled by the old man. He couldn't resist his orders and could only possess other people to harm them according to his control.
The most terrifying thing was that he discovered that every time he harmed someone, that person's luck would be drained and transferred to the old man and the fat man.
And his belly will grow bigger and bigger each time.
He even overheard that after he absorbed the luck of others for the last time, his belly would swell up so much that it would burst!
At that time, his soul will be scattered.
His girlfriend was turned into a lewd ghost, who possessed different women and merged with them to absorb their luck, ending up in the same fate as him.
Li Jun was terrified.
He instinctively felt that the girl in front of him might be able to help him, which is why he subconsciously hugged her leg.
After hearing this, Qiqi's little face turned serious.
This was the first time she had ever heard of the evil art of using gluttonous ghosts and lustful spirits to absorb the luck of others.
However, judging from Li Jun's appearance, the other party's evil magic is not yet very mature.
Li Jun seems to be their test subject!
Once they find the trick in Li Jun, they'll probably start implementing this method of stealing luck on a large scale!
After all, having more good fortune makes everything go smoothly, which is absolutely attractive to anyone.
We must stop them as soon as possible, before they become proficient.
Otherwise, once the other party becomes skilled, it might cause panic.
“I know about your situation, and I will help you handle it.” Qiqi waved to Li Jun. “Until then, you can continue to attach yourself to my fifth brother’s belly.”
Li Jun hesitated for a moment, "Master, isn't this a bad idea? I'm a gluttonous ghost, and if I possess your brother, he won't be able to eat. Once the protective yang energy in his body is exhausted, I'll absorb his luck!"
He had witnessed the tragic ends of all those he had harmed before.
He was worried that if the master's brother was in the same situation, the master would stop helping him.
Moreover, he felt terrible after each time he harmed someone.
"Don't worry, with me here, you won't have a chance to influence my fifth brother." Qiqi was confident in that much.
Seeing that the gluttonous ghost cried a little, Qiqi agreed to take care of his affairs.
Grandpa Jiang's eyes darted around, as if he had found some secret.
"Young lady, I also have a favor to ask of you!" Grandpa Jiang said.
Qiqi frowned, thinking that Grandpa Jiang wanted her to solve the problem of the lake behind the villa.
"Grandpa Jiang, I really can't do anything about the lake right now. The best thing you can do for now is to keep these ghost grandpas, ghost grandmas, ghost uncles, ghost aunts, ghost brothers, and ghost sisters scaring away anyone who tries to get close to the lake!"
She already knew the basics of the lake's problem, but it was a complex issue involving terrain, weather, and human factors. Even if she wanted to make adjustments, it wouldn't be now.
To everyone's surprise, Grandpa Jiang shook his head and said, "It's not about the lake, it's about myself."
"Your own business?"
"Well, I'd like to ask you, young lady, to help me sell this piano, or just burn it."
Qiqi looked at the perfectly intact, even brand-new piano, somewhat puzzled, "Why?"
It's such a pity to sell or burn such a precious piano!
Grandpa Jiang sighed, "This piano was a birthday gift from my late wife, and it was also my favorite thing when I was alive. She used to love sitting with me on the piano bench and listening to me play her favorite pieces."
“After I died, this piano remained here, and my wife would be heartbroken every time she saw it. My children were afraid that she would be constantly reminded of her grief, so they took her away. But she would come back every now and then.”
“Every time I come back, I sit in front of this piano and stay there all day. With this thing around, my wife probably will never be able to leave.”
"I want her to move on, adapt to life without me as soon as possible, and live the rest of her life well."
Looking at Grandpa Jiang's pained and mournful expression, Qiqi hesitated, her expression complex, as if she wanted to say something but couldn't.
"What's wrong? Is there something bothering you?"
Qiqi pursed her lips and shook her head.
Never mind, let's just tell Grandpa Jiang that when Grandma Jiang sat in front of the piano, the person she was thinking about wasn't him at all, but her first love.
Moreover, this piano was not a gift from his grandmother, but a keepsake left to her by her first love.
She enjoyed listening to Grandpa Jiang play the piano, but it was only to reminisce about her former lover.
Grandpa Jiang is already dead, why ruin the beautiful memories in his mind?
This is incredibly cruel to someone who has passed away but still retains kindness towards the world.
Qiqi swallowed back the words she was about to say, blinking her innocent and naive eyes. "Grandpa Jiang, these are your things. If I touch them without permission, your family will definitely cause me trouble!"
“It’s okay, I will appear in my children’s dreams and tell them that this is something I asked you to handle.”
"But if we just throw the piano away like this, Grandma will be very sad. Can you bear to make her sad?"
