"A Tower, A Tower, damn, Shield Mountain is back!"

"It's okay, it's okay, I have operations, watch what I do!"

"Almost, almost, damn, cheating!!!"

"Okay, Qi Sheng, you can make a comeback in this matter."

"Hey, it's not a big deal, Brother Wang, next time I have time, I will take you to glory."

The fireworks in the depths of his pupils had long since disappeared. Li Gui did not move, staring numbly at the cremation furnace that was emitting bursts of heat. There was a smell of burnt flesh floating in the air.

"Besides, my family is urging me to get married recently, so I don't have much time."

Picking up the gloves on the ground, Brother Wang put them on, walked to the gate behind the cremator, and glanced at the thermometer next to him.

"Brother Wang, when did you fall in love? You hid it deeply enough." The other two caregivers quickly followed.

"It's nothing to talk about. It's our job. If you say it, you'll scare people to death." Seeing that the temperature had dropped, Brother Wang walked to a shelf in the corner, took a look at the number, and skillfully took out a black Urn.

"Brother Wang, what do you mean by urging marriage?"

"I met a woman on a blind date who was divorced. My mother thought she was pretty good. The bride price was not much, more than 10 yuan, but she only needed a garage. Then she asked me to find another job instead of doing this. "

The other two caregivers, who had already taken off their protective clothing, looked at each other in confusion. It was not until Brother Wang came over with the urn that one of them reacted and quickly put on gloves and opened the gate behind the cremator.

"Brother Wang, are you planning to resign?"

Another person walked to the front of the cremator, pushed the lever up, exposed half of his head, and sounded a little reluctant.

These days, it is not easy to find an old man with a good temper who is willing to play with them. Especially for their kind of work, they often feel a little nervous without Brother Wang to take them.

"Hey, let's talk about it and give it a try first. I'm still not sure whether it will work. Life is easy now. I'll resign when I'm sure."

The caregiver who turned the gate pulled out the stretcher that had long since cooled down. The body bag wrapped in the body had long since disappeared, leaving only a white skeleton with some scratches and ashes on it.

Li Gui stood behind the two of them, his eyes slightly curious.

"Brother Wang, aren't you waiting?"

He handed the urn to the caregiver next to him. After hearing this, Brother Wang took the hammer and smashed down on some of the tiny skeletons of the bones.

"Oh, the boss is not young anymore. There is no need. I can just find a woman and live a down-to-earth life. I really hope to find a gentle, beautiful, honest and virtuous wife. Don't think about it. The probability of meeting such a woman is higher than Even if you encounter a ghost, you will be humble."

He skillfully hammered down a few broken bones, and with the cooperation of the caregiver, used a brush to send a small portion of the ashes into a small dustpan. Brother Wang motioned to the person holding the urn to open the urn and place it on the ground.

He took a dustpan and poured some broken bones and ashes into it.

Chapter 665 Another ghost

"It seems to be the same reason."

The remaining two caregivers had nothing to say. Li Gui stared at some scattered ashes on the ground, wondering what he was thinking.

After closing the urn, Brother Wang found another note and a black-and-white photo and pasted it on.

After coming back to his senses, Li Gui turned his head and took a look, and found that the person in the black and white photo was none other than himself.

Inside, he smiled happily and made a scissor hand gesture to the camera, wondering what had happened to him.

"I'll leave the rest to you. I'll put this thing in the warehouse."

Maybe it was Brother Wang's words that made the two caregivers realize the reality. They didn't speak for a long time after they came here. They didn't react until Brother Wang was about to leave with the urn.

"Okay, I understand."

"Brother Wang, let's treat you to dinner tonight."

"I can drink a lot, can you do the same?"

"We risk our lives to accompany the gentleman!"

"Okay, let's get together after get off work."

Li Gui followed Brother Wang and left the crematorium. When he walked to the door, he glanced at the crematorium behind.

The body, together with all the past, was completely burned in this place. There was no grand funeral, only a hasty ending.

It took less than two hours for all traces of a person's life to disappear completely.

He is probably dead, but why hasn't he disappeared?

If he doesn't understand, Li Gui won't think deeply. As a ghost, he won't think about this kind of problem that some people never understand in their entire lives.

He just continued to follow Brother Wang aimlessly, who was holding the urn, and walked into a cramped room on the other side of the corridor.

The door panel opened, and the outside lamp came in. There were rows of iron racks standing neatly and orderly. On the iron racks were placed black urns of the same size and model. Each urn had a black and white photo posted on it. However, most of the box surface was covered with a thin layer of dust.

Brother Wang took Li Gui's urn, walked to an iron frame, and placed it in a position in the middle of the upper floor according to the number.

However, Li Gui, who transformed into Gui, was not focused on his urn at this time. From the first moment he entered the room, his eyes stopped on a black shadow in the corner.

A blurry black figure was hiding in the corner of the room, and the small part that could be seen was looming. Based on his body shape, he could barely tell that it was an adult male.

He stared at the open door with no intention of going out, as if he was waiting for someone.

"Everything must die. It is not destiny to die early. Rest in peace as soon as possible."

After placing them neatly, Brother Wang patted Li Gui's urn, took out his cigarette case and walked out. The heavy door slammed shut, and the whole room fell into darkness again.

However, the light coming from the crack in the door was enough for Li Gui to see the approximate location of the black shadow in the corner.

"Hello?"

There was no answer. Li Gui was actually a little excited when he met someone of his own kind for the first time.

But maybe this dark figure was a silent person during his lifetime. His friendly greetings did not receive a response. After a long time, a vague voice came.

"Why are you here?"

Turning his head, Li Gui was stunned for a moment.

"I don't know, maybe because I'm dead."

It was not as nervous or surprising as he had imagined. The novelty of seeing the same kind of people for the first time slowly passed, and Li Gui's heart gradually calmed down.

"Every ghost exists for its own reason, maybe you just don't know it for the time being."

The tone of the black shadow's voice always made Li Gui feel familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it before.

"So what's the reason for your existence?"

Without thinking too much, Li Gui just wanted to ask, so he asked.

"I'm waiting for someone to take me home."

This time there was silence in the dark corner for a long time before the black shadow's answer came slowly.

"Who?" Li Gui stood in front of his urn with a little curiosity.

.......

"I forgot."

After a long silence, the shadow gave his answer.

Countless urns are placed in this small room, and the heavy silence seems to fit the atmosphere here.

Li Gui didn't ask any other questions. He was thinking about the meaning of his survival.

"Actually, I understand that nothing will change if I wait any longer." I don't know how long it took, but the black figure in the dark corner took the initiative to make a voice that only Li Gui could hear.

He might be talking to himself, or he might be talking to Li Gui. In short, Li Gui did not think about it anymore, but moved his eyes to the black shadow and the end of the faint light that came through the crack in the door.

"Death is the end for everyone, and legacy is unforgettable wishes that have not been fulfilled...but not every last wish can lead to a happy ending." The black shadow said one or two sentences from time to time, and sometimes stopped. It takes a long time, but the next sentence can always be followed, as if he has said these words many times before and can say them without thinking: "The meaning we retain will eventually be erased by time, no matter how unforgettable the memories are, how unforgettable they are." Feelings."

"For many things, you don't need to know the outcome. The waiting process is enough to explain it." The black figure became increasingly blurred: "My persistence has no meaning. People who are alive must continue to go on. One day they will forget everything. The unhappiness, at that time, was the real day of death for us, I understand all of this."

Li Gui frowned, which seemed to be his habit of thinking about problems during his lifetime. After more than ten seconds, he shook his head and expressed his opinion: "I don't understand."

"Haha, no need to understand, you will understand one day."

The door was suddenly opened, and Brother Wang, who had just walked out, came in smoking a cigarette and holding a piece of white cloth.

Under Li Gui's curious gaze, Wang wrapped his urn in a white cloth and then walked out, mumbling the words "trouble, trouble".

"What does the person you are waiting for look like? Maybe I have seen it before?" His "body" was packed away and Li Gui definitely wanted to follow him.

He felt that he must have been a warm man during his lifetime, otherwise he would not have subconsciously wanted to help this "person" whom he had known for less than 10 minutes.

"No need. In fact, nothing can be changed. I should have understood this long ago."

Li Gui followed Brother Wang to the door. The black shadow in the dark corner disappeared little by little in front of his eyes, and finally completely erased all traces of his survival.

Maybe in the process of opening and closing the door again and again, he had already understood a certain result, so he no longer had any reason to persist. Li Gui's arrival was another failure after waiting countless times.

Looking blankly at Brother Wang closing the door, Li Gui seemed to understand what Heiying had just said.

Then, is it still necessary for him to exist?

Chapter 666 What is my name?

"Hey, Qi Sheng, something happened at hand. Please wait for me."

The sound of Brother Wang calling in front of him made Li Gui react, stop thinking about the meaning of his stay, and quickly follow him.

"It's very fast, maybe half an hour at most... Okay, Sister Chun's food stall at our old place, you two order the dishes first, I'll go over as soon as I'm done."

Brother Wang impatiently took the wrapped urn and walked towards the outside of the funeral home.

"Don't worry, it's fine."

After hanging up the phone, Brother Wang left the funeral home again, holding Li Gui's urn in his arms, and stood waiting for a long time before he stopped a taxi.

Fortunately it was daytime, otherwise it would have been more troublesome for him to take a taxi with this thing in his hand.

"Hey, brother, it's unlucky for you to take a taxi."

Li Gui followed and got into the taxi with Brother Wang.

The driver was a strong man in his 40s. He could guess what Brother Wang was holding with just a glance in the rearview mirror.

"Hey, stop talking, bro, isn't this at work? I can't help it, troubles like this happen from time to time. I gave my car keys to other colleagues, otherwise I wouldn't bother you."

Brother Wang did not put the urn on the cushion, but held it in his arms the whole time.

Li Gui sat next to him. As the real owner, he also did not expect that a stranger would be accompanying him on the last journey of his life.

"Oh, it's not easy to make money now. Where are you going?"

Twisting the steering wheel, the driver slowly drove the taxi away from the entrance of the funeral home.

"A place called Jiule Apartment, master, do you know?"

Brother Wang pressed the urn with one hand and took out his mobile phone with the other. Li Gui actually wanted to take it himself, but after thinking for a while, he gave up the idea because he thought something might happen.

"I haven't heard of it. Wait a minute while I navigate." The driver turned on the car's built-in navigation and looked back at Li Gui's urn through the rearview mirror.

"Wherever you go is not going to be a haunted house, right? It's too remote and I can't go there. It's really scary."

"No, it's in the city. If it's not convenient for the family to come and pick it up, let me put it in that house first." Brother Wang picked up the address redirected on his phone, and the driver nodded with peace of mind when he saw this.

Along the way, Brother Wang and the burly driver chatted about each other. Li Gui didn't pay attention. He was guessing whether the meaning of his survival was related to those beautiful women.

But he stayed with her and watched, but there was nothing left to do. His mind was empty, and Li Gui really couldn't guess an accurate answer.

"Am I also waiting for someone to take me home?"

Thinking of Heiying's words, Li Gui placed his eyes on the urn in Brother Wang's hand.

The taxi stopped and went, and it didn't last long, and finally stopped in front of an alley in the city. Brother Wang got out of the car holding the things in his hands, and Li Gui also got out.

The sky above our heads is getting darker and darker, and the dark clouds are intertwined with each other, and it looks like it will rain at any time.

"This damn weather, don't let it rain heavily at night."

There was no ink mark. Brother Wang pulled the white cloth on the urn and after making sure no one could see it, he quickly walked into Jiule's apartment not far away.

The familiar scene in the alley made Li Gui, who followed him around like a shadow, feel a little strange.

It felt like it was the first time I came to a strange place, but it felt like I had been here before in a dream.

"I should have been here before. Is this my own home?"

Thinking of what Brother Wang just said, Li Gui was not sure. He and Brother Wang walked into the elevator of the apartment together. Brother Wang held the urn and pressed the button for the eighth floor.
