Chapter 26: Wishes and Prices

"Mom, I'm so hungry."

The youngest daughter's voice was choked with sobs. She covered her mouth and dared not make any loud noise.

The mother did not answer the question, but just held her little daughter in her arms.

Zhang Xiansheng watched this scene. Because of the ghost realm, ordinary people naturally could not see him.

"Stinky bitch, hurry up and get me something to eat."

The voice was very violent and came from inside a room.

Zhang Xiansheng looked in the direction of the sound and saw a man who looked very fierce.

The woman in the living room did not respond, as if she was numb.

After a while, the man kicked the door open and ran straight to the woman in front of the dining table.

"Fuck, are you deaf?"

Having said that, he gave him a big pocket.

The youngest girl couldn't hold it in anymore and burst into tears.

The older girl didn't cry, but just watched the scene coldly.

"Ahui, there is no more food. There is no food at home." The woman shouted, covering her swollen face.

"Can't you go find something to eat if you don't have any? Do you want to starve me to death?" the man said, and slapped the woman again.

Zhang Xiansheng's eyes fell on the older girl, and things seemed to be different from what he expected.

This made him curious about the truth, so he used the ghost realm to cover the girl.

The girl who was still "watching the show" was obviously startled. She looked around vigilantly, revealing a maturity that was not unlike her peers.

She looked around, and her sight finally fell on a blurry figure in the middle of the living room.

"Who are you……"

Zhang Xiansheng chuckled, "I am a god, you can also call me...The Hanged Man."

"The Hanged Man? That seems to be a character in the Tarot card, right?" The girl's tone was obviously unconvinced.

Zhang Xiansheng asked in return: "Isn't what I am displaying the power of God?"

"So... The Hanged Man... what do you want to do?"

"I can fulfill all your wishes, but you have to pay a price accordingly."

"What price?"

"The most precious thing in your heart."

The little girl refused: "No, you can take me back."

After saying that, she looked towards the dining table in the living room.

There was nothing there, no father, no mother, no sister, and the surroundings were gray.

"I can send you back, but you need to fulfill my wish." Zhang Xiansheng said.

The little girl opened her eyes wide, looking incredulous.

She hesitated for a moment and asked, "What is your wish?"

Zhang Xiansheng said, "The story of your parents."

The little girl was stunned for a moment, "I said, can you really let me go back?"

"of course."

"Well then." The little girl said, "My dad is a gangster. My mom loves him and pursues him recklessly. In the end, she angered her dad, my grandpa, to death and got his inheritance."

"Dad likes to beat Mom, and he also beats me and my sister, but not often. Mom likes to beat me, but she is very good to my sister because I am not Dad's child."

After saying that, she lifted up her sleeves to reveal blue and purple wounds.

Zhang Xiansheng was stunned and stared at the little girl in front of him for a long time. He felt like his CPU seemed to be burned out.

The little girl asked, "Can you take me back?"

"Of course." Zhang Xiansheng said?
"Wait." The little girl asked again: Can someone else make a wish for you?

"You want your sister to make a wish?"

The little girl responded.

"Of course." Zhang Xiansheng said, pulling the younger girl into the ghost realm.

"Sister, you..."

"Sister, make a wish. Make a wish to...God."

The younger sister shook her head and said, "I don't want it!" "There are lots of delicious foods."

"Really?" The younger sister couldn't hide her surprise in her tone.

"Learn from me. I want lots and lots of delicious food."

"I want lots and lots of delicious food." said the younger sister.

Zhang Xiansheng used the power of the wish ghost, and a silk thread on his finger wrapped around the youngest girl.

The wish came true and the deal was done.

living room.

The couple stared at the two empty chairs.

Just now, their two daughters disappeared out of thin air.

"Damn it! If they disappear, what will I eat?" the man said, looking at the woman.

The woman felt frightened by the stare, and she vaguely saw her husband's eyes glowing green.

at this time.

Suddenly, there were many delicious foods on the table, including snacks, meals, and fruits...

Not only on the dining table, but also on the living room floor, coffee table and sofa, all kinds of delicious food appeared out of nowhere.

"Mom." The youngest girl shouted.

The couple paid no attention at all, their eyes were all on the food.

"Mine, all mine." said the man, and began to eat voraciously.

The same is true for women.

The man was enjoying the meal so much that he didn't bother to stop her.

"Mom, I want to eat too." The youngest little girl shouted again.

Mom didn't pay any attention and was just focused on eating.

The older girl opened a bag of potato chips and a bottle of milk and ate them herself while feeding her younger sister.

She stared at her mother, as if waiting for the "price" to come.

suddenly.

The woman who was concentrating on eating hit her face on the table and stopped moving.

The husband standing by ignored her and continued to eat voraciously.

The little girl turned her head and looked towards the middle of the living room. Although it was empty, she knew that a god was standing there.

As the price came, Zhang Xiansheng looked at the silk thread in his hand.

The thread did not break and was still connecting the youngest girl.

For the youngest little girl, her mother is the most precious thing in her heart.

Zhang Xiansheng saw a corpse through the silk thread, which was the body of the woman.

Zhang Xiansheng looked at the man who was eating voraciously again and pulled him into the ghost realm.

"Who!" the man shouted.

He looked around vigilantly, then cursed: "Fuck you, stop playing tricks and get out of here!"

He looked angry, but his shaking legs gave him away.

"I can fulfill any of your wishes." Zhang Xiansheng said.

The man looked in the direction of the sound, was startled, and then realized something?
"Did you conjure up those foods just now?"

"Can any wish really be granted?"

"Of course." Zhang Xiansheng said.

The man pondered, his face visibly troubled.

"I want you to fulfill three, no, one hundred wishes of mine."

Zhang Xiansheng's mouth twitched, and he said: "But the price is the most precious thing in my heart."

He didn't have to say this, but he really wanted to see the man's reaction when he knew he had to pay the price.

The man hesitated, but finally agreed.

In his opinion, one hundred wishes can buy many, many things that he considers precious.

When only a few wishes were left, he asked for a hundred more wishes.
