The Spirit World

Chapter 612: The Quiet Person
【Children need to be taught by example, not just by preaching. If parents are upright, children will be upright; if parents are not upright, children can also be upright. If parents are upright, children can also be crooked. The important thing is the children, not the parents.】

[Gurgle——]

【Aha--】

The sound of someone drinking water came from the corner. The sound of tiny rubber shoes rubbing against the ground also slowly came. His ears were almost able to hear it, and he moved slightly.

There was a very strong fishy smell, like the lingering sound of water, with the fishy smell of fish, entering his nose, making him feel a little uncomfortable...

"Hey! Xiaoxing, help me get that stack of vegetables."

"Master...I want to eat too~"

"Give it to the master first, be good, ha..."

He heard the voices of two different people, but he still couldn't see them with his eyes.

Then, there was the sound of smacking lips… the sound of smacking lips… the silky texture of the meat and the crispness of the vegetables combined together, smacking lips, and then the sound of gurgling wine… it should also be the wine…

"Master...is this coffin we collected from Nanqi Town really that strange?"

The slightly petite voice called out obediently, accompanied by the crunching sound of chewing chopsticks.

"It's amazing... How can it not be amazing... This coffin! It's awesome! It's much more amazing than those weird things I collected before."

The middle-aged man's voice as he gurgled his drink was like he was talking in a hoarse voice, he smacked his meat and gurgled his drink...

"What's so amazing about that, Master? Why don't I believe it?"

The young boy poured wine for his master.

The master was an old man with a goatee, a pointed chin and a thin body.

"The old man who sold this coffin doesn't know the value of it. If an ordinary person puts something in it, it will be preserved for decades without rotting." The old man was drinking again, and he slammed the cup down with a sound: "Let alone the plain material, even the small beads inlaid on the side are agate stones that only rich people can use! They are very precious!"

"How could it be...isn't that just an ordinary little stone? Master is fooling me again~" The little apprentice slowly took a bite of the dish and started chewing the chopsticks again...

"It's true... agate stones are precious! If we pick them all, we'll have to sell them for at least a hundred or eighty gold coins! We bought them for just twenty gold coins... our good days as master and disciple are about to come! Are they coming?!"

The master picked up a piece of meat with his chopsticks and put it into the bowl of his little apprentice.

"Eat quickly, eat quickly, you're growing taller. Don't be like me, a dwarf mouse~" The master drank, and the smell of alcohol went through his nose, turning his big nose red.

"Master is not a mouse..." The young apprentice quickly moved the rice with his chopsticks and sucked it in big mouthfuls, as if it was rice washed with water.

"The old man is only breathing his last breath and can't even afford his own funeral, yet he's still thinking about his vineyard. Isn't that unlucky!" The master rubbed his big red nose, pressed his nose and sneezed to the side, then wiped his hands on the torn socks at the heels: "Don't be lazy, okay? Wait until tonight, and we'll go to the jewelry store in Nanqi Town to sell the agate on the coffin."

"Ah? We have to go back?" The little apprentice finished his meal and slowly put his hand on his nose to wipe his snot. Sitting upright next to the master, watching the master burp after drinking ~
"What? You don't want to accompany the master before the buckle is finished?"

"Yes... Master... We got this coffin from Nanqi Town. Are we going back to Nanqi Town to sell the agate?"

"What? Dislike it?" The master picked up the dish and ate it without chewing. He sat upright and snorted. The young apprentice began to collect the dishes and bowls. He squinted at the master and said obediently: "Isn't it... a good horse never turns back to eat the grass it has already turned to..."

"You go wash the dishes, I'll carry out the coffin. Take out all the agate stones today and sell them in the evening, and then have a good meal. The master is happy today! Let me make you happy too, okay?" The old master slowly got up and prepared to walk behind him. He was indeed short, and his clothes were very long. The coarse cloth clothes were decent, but there were many patches on them, which were all made by finding colorful cloth with similar colors.

"Of course! How can I not follow my master and enjoy delicious food and drinks?" The little apprentice slowly stood up, ran with the bowl and chopsticks, ran to the master, went to the river bank nearby, and started washing the bowl.

There were two bowls, a plate, and two pairs of chopsticks, and the oil that flowed out was minimal. There was also a small dish of shredded pork on the table, and the oil on it was also pitifully small.

Suddenly, it became quiet again...

The sound of slippers tapping towards me quickly appeared beside my ears, and my mouth became uncontrollable and could not make any sound.

The five senses slowly returned... like a deep nightmare, leaving one after another...

Once upon a time... there was a group of people who fought for their ideals in the world, carrying a heavy burden throughout their lives. They never gave up and never stopped...

Now, those people have been devoured by madness. How can we redress their injustice... and how can we... let them be liberated without hesitation...

He suddenly opened his eyes and stared fiercely at... the darkness...

He felt his body being thrown down, his hands and feet being fixed... He also had no strength to grab his fists and break free from the chains...

"Ouch... It's so heavy..." The teacher put the red-painted coffin on the ground.

"Such a good coffin, but the old man himself is not lucky enough to use it..." The old master stared at the dark agate stones around the coffin, and bent down his already short body to look at the amount of agate underneath.

"Oh! Hey! Isn't this... a small diamond?" The old master reached out to touch the shiny thing under the coffin: "Isn't this an agate? A small diamond, hey!"

Feeling the friction of the hand on the coffin, the rough skin, tightly pressed against the stone next to it, the crunching friction sound echoed in the dark coffin.

"cough……"

His throat seemed to really begin to sink slowly, as if a shark had bitten his vocal cords, and the sound of his coughing sounded like his throat was torn apart.

"Are you coughing, Xiaoxing?"

The old master frowned and looked at his apprentice. The sound of the bowls was still very loud, scraping the water in the river.

"No..." Xiaoxing looked at the bowl in the water and thought it was clean, so he slowly pulled it out, shook the water, and it fell into the air. He put it behind him and started washing the chopsticks...

"No... Master, I'm not coughing..."

Xiaoxing looked at his master slowly, shaking the water off the chopsticks with his hands.

"I didn't cough either..." The master held the small diamond inlaid into the mahogany with his hand, staring at the small glowing diamond in confusion: "No one is looking for me, right? Can you go and take a look?"

"There's no one here..." Xiaoxing looked at the green mountains and clear waters around him, which almost made him panic. Then he slowly picked up his chopsticks, ran to the table, put the bowl away, and then put the bowl of meat and vegetables together and put them on the small cabinet next to him.

"There's no one here... What's going on? Are you hallucinating because of your old age?" The old master stuck out his tongue, tried hard to pick the diamond with his hands, and pried it up with a small stone.

He seemed to have a premonition of where he was and frowned in confusion.

Chang Yufeng... I am Chang Yufeng... right... but where is this place? In the coffin...

I...how...did I die again...

His brain seemed to start working again... Death... It was such a selfish thing... Everyone would die... It was the last fairness in this world...

But why don't you let me die...

If I die... let me die... that is the best answer for me... I did not do everything well in this life, when I was alive... and I should not start over again in the end...

That's not fair to anyone... It's not fair to anyone! I'm not going to live my life like this anymore...

My death... is all there is to life... the end of life...

If I die... it will be my explanation to everyone...

If I die... no one will force me to do anything I don't want to do, or even do anything I want to do... anything...

Anything, anything, everything... should be the end of my life. From the moment I leave this life, everything I have should end...

Instead of...living again...

No one wants to live like this anymore... No one can live fairly... Live again...

I shouldn't be so special...

Let me die...

I am not destined to die...

I long for...

Escape... from this world... I never belonged to this world... I don't want to come to this world... I shouldn't... come back from the dead... and disrupt the balance of life...

How should I leave? I should remember this on my life path... If I want to leave, I should leave...

Life is like a bridge... cherishing everything in front of you is what people should understand most...

Mom and Dad... brothers and sisters... money and wealth... honor in life... death and separation... the ups and downs of life, I have experienced them all... and it is not in vain to live in this world year after year.

Instead, in my world... time and again... let me go back to the past... let me start over... let me get... another chance to live...

In the blink of an eye, a year has passed...

Life is just a blink of an eye...

The moon always carries people's sorrow... The moon... is always the same, year after year, and it is the same today... But year after year, people are different today...

I...didn't make a wish...I made a wish for myself...to keep me alive...

My life's dreams... my life's expectations... are all reduced to a sentence...

I have been here... I have only been here... I have only been here in this world... I have done nothing... I have saved nothing...

I didn't escape anything...

I am just... one of countless people who died...

Let me go...life...let me go...

This is a one-way street... I shouldn't... come here so often...

I……

too tired……

Why do I have to go through... so many lives... so many everything... so many beautiful things... so many beautiful souls... so many people who accompany me... who have gone through it with me...

I'm sorry, I shouldn't have such thoughts...

Because everything about you...is in this life, going back and forth, unable to go to the next life...Thank you for accompanying me...

Thank you for accompanying me with your most beautiful, handsome, pretty and wonderful life...

But I am always incompetent... I miss every opportunity to connect to the near future...

Every time I reincarnate... I die... Every time I reincarnate... I struggle...

"Let me! Die!"

Chang Yufeng shouted, as if he was roaring, in this coffin, his voice ended and he tore his vocal cords, which were stained with sticky blood...

"Let me! Not experience this cycle of suffering any more!"

"I beg you!"

"I do not have……"

He cried...

All the memories came rushing back...

I don't……

"As powerful as you think..."

"I'm a coward..."

"I simply don't have the courage to reincarnate again and again..."

Time did not stay on his body, but on his heart... pulling, tearing, kneading without hesitation, tearing everything into pieces...

He couldn't feel his body tired...but he cried out of exhaustion...

“Lin’er…ah…ah…ah…”

His tears... swirled in the coffin... dripped into the red wood, and the real dripping sound rang in his ears...

tick...

tick...

tick...

Like tears made of time... they flowed tirelessly from the corners of his eyes... he cried bitterly...

"Lin'er...I'm sorry..."

"Such cowardice..."

"I don't have any strength at all... I'm not strong at all... I don't have the courage to face your departure..."

"Again... again and again..."

He suddenly stopped crying, his eyes were tightly closed... but it seemed as if they were illuminated by something bright...

Blood and tears flowed down his cheeks... He just felt comfortable...

"Master... there's someone in the coffin! Such a big person!" Xiaoxing shouted, pulling at Chang Yufeng's clothes...

"What are you yelling about?!" The old master put his hand on Chang Yufeng's pulse, snorted and shouted: "I was wondering if that old man was selling so hard, it turns out that he was selling a used coffin! How unlucky! If it weren't for this little diamond, I would have to go and talk to him!"

The old master helped Chang Yufeng untie his hand, and Chang Yufeng's hands then dragged weakly to his thighs.

"Come out quickly, come out quickly, this coffin cannot be ruined by you. Why are you, a living person, lying in the coffin to scare people? You are so unlucky!" The old master pushed Chang Yufeng out with disgust, but Chang Yufeng fell out directly and hit Xiaoxing hard.

"Ah!" Xiaoxing pushed Chang Yufeng away with disgust.

"You brought a living person with you?! This is a torture instrument! Master! This is a torture instrument!" Xiaoxing shouted and ran around in front of his master.

His coarse cloth clothes were the same as his master's, and he also explained the holes and mending them...

Chang Yufeng was smashed to the ground. This was the riverside and the soil was terribly damp. On Chang Yufeng's face, a crab was pinching his face tightly.

He actually let...

I forced myself to hold back all the words I was about to say.

Because now, there is only pain in my face... pain in my throat... and... pain in my feet...

"Clang, quack."

The old master squatted in front of him, looking at him and stroking his small goatee.

"What? Are you burying someone's coffin because of a vendetta? Are you in such a hurry to die?"

Chang Yufeng was speechless for a moment...

"Don't pretend, I paid a price for this coffin... You are a free gift. Just think of it as me saving your life. Your life is mine now."

The teacher stroked his moustache, proudly took the diamond and blew on it, then smiled happily in the bright sunshine.

"Get rich~ Hehe~"
