Chapter 189 Are they here to look for our dead father?
The next second, her gaze passed Sanbao and the beggar boy and looked behind them.
"Hi, how are you guys? How many of you are there? Is the food good?"
Sanbao and the beggar boy jumped behind Xiao Yuanbao at the same time.
Without stopping for a moment.
So scary!
Sanbao hid behind his sister and whispered, "Are they really here? Are there still a few of them?"
There was still saliva residue hanging from the corners of Little Yuanbao's mouth. "Yes, I'll open a yin-yang eye for you guys."
Sanbao didn’t even have time to say, I don’t need it…
The small ingot has already been opened for him.
Sanbao saw a few ghosts holding food in their hands and feeding it into their mouths mechanically, while they squatted in front of their bed and looked at the three of them.
The squatting position is where they just slept.
The beggar boy here was also given a yin-yang eye. "One, two, three, fuck, so many ghosts, I was scared! What kind of ghosts are these? Too ugly! This is the first time I've seen a ghost. Do all ghosts look so ugly?"
Sanbao finally found a place where he was stronger than him, and he calmed down by force, "There are even uglier ones, what are these? At most, they are just a little thin, skinny, I have seen little evil ghosts, hanged ghosts, and even the army of ghost soldiers!"
The beggar boy praised him, "Amazing, having an awesome sister really makes you see things differently."
Sanbao snorted, "That's not true!"
When the two of them started joking around, it didn't feel so scary anymore.
The main thing is that Xiao Yuanbao woke up.
Sanbao's courage also grew.
"Sister, what the hell are these guys? Why are they so thin?"
Little Yuanbao was no longer sleepy, and Little Milk Ball was full of interest, "They died of hunger when they were alive, so they must be starving ghosts."
Sanbao and the beggar boy suddenly realized.
"No wonder you are eating so much food here. You don't even know how to cook it before eating. Does it taste good if it's dry like this?" said the beggar boy.
Who would have thought that a ghost would actually reply, "It's delicious. As long as it's food, it's delicious..."
The beggar boy shouted "Fuck!"
He took another half step back.
Little Yuanbao chuckled, "They won't hurt anyone unless you snatch the food from their hands. Starving ghosts, where did you come from? Why don't you reincarnate and stay in the Four Seasons Food Store?"
There were three hungry ghosts in total.
They all look like skinny middle-aged men.
The way they eat is very mechanical and they speak slowly.
The way you move is completely subconscious.
One of them murmured back, "We can't be reincarnated, we want to go home, we are escorts from Kinmen County, we want to go home..."
Sanbao couldn't help asking, "Why don't you just go home? Why don't you come to our Baili Town..."
So scary.
"We're just passing by. There's a brother in Baili Town who used to be a bodyguard with me. His name is Tang Laosi. We're so hungry, so we came to ask him for something to eat..."
Sanbao was stunned for a moment!
Little Yuanbao opened his eyes wide and exclaimed.
"Third brother, are they here to look for our dead father?"
"It seems so." Sanbao quickly said to the hungry ghosts, "Tang Laosi is our father, but my father has died a long time ago. He was captured and killed in the war."
Even the hungry ghosts didn't have much emotional fluctuation.
They are just broken souls, with incomplete memories.
"oh!"
Xiao Yuanbao asked again, "How did you die? Since you were escorts, you wouldn't have starved to death. You must have had food to eat..."
The hungry ghosts were silent for a long time.
It seemed as if they were all recalling the cause of their own death.
One of them said, "Someone was chasing us...trapped us in a cave, and we starved to death..."
The remaining few hungry ghosts seemed to have their memories awakened.
He continued, "Tang Lao Si adopted four children. All four children Tang Lao Si adopted are from prominent families..."
"Tang Lao Si won't let us say anything, so we won't tell you where the child is..."
"Tang Laosi is our brother... we asked him for food..."
…
…
Once these words were organized, several children began to understand them.
Sanbao was silent.
To be honest, this was beyond his imagination.
Little Yuanbao was even more confused, "Third brother, they said we were not born by Tang Lao Si! Did they die to protect our secret? What secret do we have?"
Sanbao said, "This is a serious matter. Liao Huaiyu, go to Zhishu Academy and call my elder and second brothers over! If anyone asks you the reason, don't say a word."
The beggar boy said without hesitation, "Okay!"
Although he was a gossipy person, he tried to know as little as possible about such things.
It was already late at night, and Zhishu School had already closed its doors and windows, and students were generally not allowed to go out.
But this did not pose a problem for the beggar boy, and he took Cai with him.
Sanbao and Xiao Yuanbao were the only two people left in the warehouse. Those hungry ghosts were still eating food mechanically, putting it into their mouths non-stop.
The food they ate changed from being full of fat to being grayish white with no nutrition.
They didn't ask any questions, and the hungry ghosts ignored them, they just kept eating.
Little Yuanbao yawned and felt sleepy again.
Fortunately,
Not long after, the beggar boy came over with Dabao and Erbao.
In the darkness of night, Dabao was walking in a hurry with a blank expression on his face, while Erbao had a gloomy look and said nothing.
Zhishu School was not far from the Siji Grain Store in the town, so Cai and the beggar boy managed to get there by carriage. They did not delay anything else but asking the gatekeeper to pass on the message.
The new gatekeeper of Zhishu School seemed stern and unyielding. When Cai saw him, she wanted to see her son as she had important matters to discuss. The gatekeeper hesitated for a moment and did not ask what the matter was. He went to the backyard to pass on the message.
…
As soon as Dabao and Erbao entered the room, Xiao Yuanbao yawned and said, "Big brother, second brother, you come over! Baby will open the yin and yang eyes for you, baby is so sleepy..."
"Well, thank you, Xiao Yuanbao."
"Third brother, what's going on?"
Sanbao quickly recounted the whole story of how he came to the grain store to get food and encountered a starving man today, from beginning to end.
After the talk, the Yin and Yang eyes on Dabao and Erbao were also opened.
The two of them saw a few starving ghosts eating food with dull expressions.
Sanbao pointed at the starving ghosts and said, "Yes, that's what they said. They were so hungry that they came to Baili Town to have a meal with their brothers, Tang Laosi..."
"Yeah!" Dabao and Erbao are older.
They seemed to have a certain impression of what this starving ghost looked like.
"My dear uncles, the four of us are the children adopted by Mr. Tang. Please eat slowly. I am very heavy. I have asked my mother to prepare a good banquet for you..."
When the hungry ghosts heard about the delicious banquet, they all stopped eating.
Some light came out.
This dry food can only fill the stomach, how can it be as attractive as a fine banquet?
"How did all the uncles get killed? If you can remember any details, you can tell me a few. If I have the ability in the future, I will definitely avenge all the uncles..."
