"At the time I thought I was talking to myself, but I didn't expect there was an audience."
Still such a special audience.
The old man grinned.
After knowing this, the old man felt that the obscure memory became less uncomfortable.
Someone, no, it was a monster, remembered his brother with him, and he couldn't help but feel a little warm in his heart.
…
Boss Bai was silent.
If it is true as the old man said...then what Master Xiao said...is indeed very likely to be true.
My uncle has a monster friend...
In order to protect his monster friend who was being targeted, the uncle put the monster friend into this jade ball...
Boss Bai lowered his head and looked at the jade ball in his hand.
Under the moonlight, the jade ball seemed to have absorbed the moonlight, giving off a faint clear glow.
…
It's just that things are unpredictable.
My monster friends are safe.
My uncle accidentally got into a car accident...
…
"monster……"
Boss Bai murmured, "Have you really been trapped in this jade ball for so many years?"
From grandpa to dad...and to him...it's really a very long time.
…
"yes."
An apologetic look appeared on the old man's face, "It's all me-"
"grandfather."
Boss Bai interrupted the old man's self-blame, "Didn't Master Xiao say that even if you understand what my uncle meant, you still can't hit the jade ball."
"yes……"
"I can't open it..."
"But, I can find someone to help."
The old man smiled bitterly.
The monk who gave the jade ball to his brother...Master Xiao...
After living for more than half his life, he realized that the so-called masters really existed.
Since my brother was able to find an expert back then, as long as he works hard, he should also be able to find an expert who can open the jade ball.
…
"grandfather."
Boss Bai comforted the old man, "Don't think too much."
"You finally solved the mystery of my uncle's last words, shouldn't you be happy?"
…
"Um."
The old man nodded, "I'm very happy."
"I thought I was going to go into the coffin with doubts."
"grandfather."
Boss Bai frowned.
The old man smiled and changed the subject, "Now I finally have the nerve to see my brother."
"grandfather."
Boss Bai was dissatisfied, "Why do you always say such unlucky things?"
…
"Why?"
The old man shook his head, "I didn't say anything unlucky."
"I'm going to visit my brother's grave tomorrow."
"With Master Xiao."
…
That’s what it means.
Boss Bai breathed a sigh of relief.
The old man's appearance just now seemed too like a feeling that he had no regrets in life and was looking down on life and death.
It made him a little frightened.
etc!
"With Master Xiao?"
Boss Bai exclaimed in surprise.
…
"Um."
The old man nodded, "Actually, it's the monster who wants to see my brother."
"monster-"
Boss Bai coughed a few times. His performance was too exaggerated. Why was he so loud?
"Want to see uncle?"
…
"yes."
The old man narrowed his eyes, "Finally, there is one thing I managed to get right."
"If I hadn't often told Yuqiu about my brother..."
"The monster may have misunderstood my brother."
…
"……Too."
Boss Bai, who was stunned for a few seconds before reacting, nodded.
He has been imprisoned for so many years.
If he hadn't heard his grandfather's words and knew that his uncle had died in a car accident instead of deliberately closing it, how could the monster not have any resentment in his heart?
A resentful monster...
He shivered.
It's a little scary to think about it.
"Grandpa, look, you have done a lot."
"There is no misunderstanding between my uncle and the monster. It's all because of you."
…
The old man smiled like a child.
"Um."
Finally...he did something for his brother.
…
"grandfather."
Boss Bai asked tentatively, "Can I go together tomorrow?"
"I also want to see my uncle."
…
"You kid said you were going because you heard the monster was going."
The old man unceremoniously exposed his grandson's "high-sounding" words.
Boss Bai sneered, but honestly admitted, "There are two reasons."
"I really want to see my uncle who can see monsters."
…
The old man smiled.
"good."
"You may as well go."
"Now someone will drive for us."
Boss Bai:......
He twitched his lips and said, "Yes, I will be a competent driver tomorrow."
…
"Buzz buzz~"
The phone vibrated.
Boss Bai took out his mobile phone.
The familiar number made him whisper, "Oh!"
"What's wrong?"
The old man asked worriedly.
"fine."
Boss Bai smiled bitterly, "My parents called me before and asked me to go back after eating at your place."
As a result, he completely forgot about it.
He answered the phone.
"mom."
...
Boss Bai put away his cell phone.
"I'll go back tomorrow."
"Grandpa, I will sleep with you today."
After all, we have to leave early tomorrow morning.
...
Early the next morning, Xiao Xiao rang the doorbell of Mr. Bai's house.
"Come in."
"The door is unlocked."
The old man's angry screams came from the yard.
...
Xiao Xiao opened the door.
Then I saw the old man standing in the yard.
...
"Lao Bai."
Xiao Xiao smiled and said hello.
...
"Master Xiao!"
Before the old man could speak, a voice spoke before him.
...
"Boss Bai."
Xiao Xiao looked at the middle-aged man striding out of the house.
There aren't many surprises on the surface.
...
"Master Xiao came so early."
Boss Bai looked at the pale sky in the east.
"I originally wanted to pick you up."
...
"Thanks."
Xiao Xiao shook his head, "But the cemetery and the school are in two directions."
"It would be a waste of time to pick me up."
...
"Anyway, you're here now."
Boss Bai shrugged his shoulders.
"I don't have a chance to pick it up."
...
"Master Xiao, have you had breakfast?"
The old man came over.
"Xiao Rong and I just wanted to eat. Would you like to eat some too?"
"Xiao Fang's craftsmanship is pretty good."
...
"I've had breakfast."
Xiao Xiao was not surprised by the old man's change of address.
Anyway, he is used to this title.
...
"Then eat some more."
The old man waved, "Come on, we have to wait anyway."
"It's better to eat and wait."
...
It was hard to refuse the old man's hospitality, so Xiao Xiao also sat down at the dining table.
...
"Master Xiao."
The old man pointed to his grandson.
"He also wants to go together later."
"May I?"
...
Xiao Xiao smiled, "Just make the decision, Mr. Bai."
...
Does he make decisions?
The old man grinned and said, "Then let this kid go with us."
"It just so happens that we are short of a driver."
...
What a real grandpa.
Boss Bai smiled bitterly.
But he promised, "Don't worry, I will be absolutely safe and reach my destination quickly."
...
The early morning mist had not yet cleared, and the car had already driven out of Bai Lao's door.
