Chapter 61: The Road Back to the Past.



Chapter 61: The Road Back to the Past.

I'm full of anger, live streaming is still going on, and I haven't been working for a few years, so I'm still a greenhorn.

The buffs were fully stacked, and in less than ten seconds, the staff and the caregivers all fell to the ground.

Sweet Potato Oatmeal Milk Tea: [Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh, the police officer is so handsome!!!]

Popcorn: [Finally, I feel good... This staff member is lying with his eyes open. He looks just as shabby as the caregiver, yet he claims we're not family. Does he think he's stupid?]

3366: [Don't even think about escaping our Master's discerning eyes!]

Now that they were there, the police followed Gu Ji to check on the conditions of the other old heroes.

It was discovered that this phenomenon was not an isolated case, but the caregiver just now was the most daring, not only abusing the child but also stealing things.

Other caregivers may be lazy, but they don’t steal anything.

Perhaps because the old hero was alone, the damn caregiver targeted him and bullied him when he was alone.

After the inspection, the two police officers were very helpful. "Is there anything else we can do? We have received orders and will cooperate with all your actions!"

They were ready to go, just waiting for Gu Ji's order to get started.

I don’t know what these community workers are doing. Such a serious thing has existed for so many years. I dare not imagine what would happen to the old man and these old heroes if it weren’t for Gu Ji and if they hadn’t received the call.

Gu Ji opened the curtains and saw many old men and women standing downstairs enjoying the food.

"Could you please ask the uncles and aunties to go back and not block the door, okay?"

"sure!"

The police officers also had strong execution capabilities. Although some elderly men and women put their hands in their pockets and said, "Oh, I'm just looking to see if there's anything," they turned around flexibly and prepared to go upstairs.

Trying to see the forest for the trees.

Police: ...

After more than half an hour of unremitting efforts, the old men and women finally left the downstairs reluctantly.

The surroundings became quiet again.

Gu Ji took them back to the old man's room.

Zhao Xiaona had been accompanying him just now. The old man got up and sat on the sofa. Zhao Xiaona sat next to him, but his eyes were always looking towards the kitchen. He smiled from time to time, as if he was talking to someone.

"Master Gu, Grandpa has been like this since you left. Is there something going on over there?"

She was really panicked.

But I am worried about grandpa being here alone.

Cowardly and kind.

Gu Ji closed the door and drew all the curtains.

She stood in the middle of the living room and drew a simple magic circle with cinnabar.

Everyone held their breath.

Watching it through the screen and watching it in person are two completely different feelings.

When drawing the magic circle, the police could even feel some changes in the surrounding magnetic field. The air seemed to get hotter, and they could smell a very strange, burnt smell.

Even their hair, clothes, and curtains began to flutter.

All the windows are closed, so where does the wind come from?

As the last stroke was made, Gu Ji stood in the center of the magic circle. The magic circle instantly burst out with astonishing light, and then became soft and warm a moment later, falling on the girl, full of divinity.

She clasped her hands together, her mouth seemed to be moving something, and after a while she nodded: "I understand."

"Ms. Zhao, can you help push the old man next to me?"

Although she didn't understand, Zhao Xiaona still did it.

She and the police carried the old man to the wheelchair and pushed it to Gu Ji's side.

The wheelchair was secured and Gu Ji stepped out.

The magic circle emits a gentle golden halo, with stars and fireflies flickering in the room, bringing romantic light to the dim room.

Zhao Xiaona couldn't help but reach out to touch them. The fireflies danced on her fingertips as if they were alive.

Suddenly, when she came into contact with the firefly again, several frames of images seemed to flash through her mind.

A huge sense of sadness surged in her heart. When she came to her senses, her face was already covered with tears. Fortunately, she didn't wear makeup today, otherwise her face would be covered with tears.

Zhao Xiaona stretched out her hand, and the firefly touched her fingertips, gently and firmly. A huge sadness surged in her heart, and before she could react, tears were already streaming down her face.

"What's wrong with me? Is there something wrong with my eyeballs? Woohoo, Master Gu, my eyes seem to be broken!"

She cried as she spoke.

I felt that Yiping didn’t cry as hard as she did when she went to her father to ask for money.

Gu Ji comforted her: "Your eyes are fine, don't worry."

When I turned around again, I saw the two policemen crying, but for the sake of their image, they could only cry silently, with tears and snot flowing down silently, and the tips of their noses and the corners of their eyes were all red.

Kunkunkun: [I don't know why, even though we're separated by a screen, I can still feel the passion, responsibility, and sadness conveyed by those fireflies. Am I the only one who feels this way?]

You're not the only one who feels the same way. I cried the moment the grandfather entered the magic circle and the fireflies appeared.

The scholar in the book: [I always feel that those fireflies seem to be telling the story of the war that took place here in the past, reminding us to remember history. When they gather together, they are a ball of fire; when they scatter, they are a sky full of stars.]

Cha Cha: [I slapped my son, who was playing games, and dragged him over to watch the livestream. He was a little upset at first, but now he's crying with me.]

The power contained in those fireflies is stronger than Gu Ji imagined.

They wrapped the old man, and in the magic circle, the old man smiled happily, as if he was interacting with the fireflies.

The old man's face gradually became less pale. He said a lot of things, but they couldn't hear them clearly due to the magic circle. The expression on his face was full of surprise at having regained what he had lost.

The originally gray, numb and empty eyes became bright at this moment, as if he had met a good friend whom he hadn't seen for decades and was now reminiscing about the past.

Gradually, the fireflies gathered into a beam of light. Gu Ji stretched out his palm and gathered the fireflies in his hand.

The old man slowly stood up from his wheelchair and returned to his room silently. There was a rustling sound. Ten minutes later, he opened the door and changed into a clean and tidy new set of clothes.

"I haven't left here for a long time, little Taoist priest, could you please take me out for a look?"

After saying that, he saluted Gu Ji, raised his withered hands with great effort, and his bent spine became straight.

Ever since he scared a child downstairs in the community a few years ago, he has not left the building. Community caregivers come every day to deliver supplies and food, but he only visits old friends on the same floor.

Calculating the time, I probably haven’t left this building for five or six years.

Time outside changes very quickly, and he sometimes looks out the window to see the changes in Jiangcheng.

Today, he made up his mind to walk out of the building and see the world outside.
