Chapter 61 The Fourth World(2/2)
The grandson ran beside him, like a child who would never grow up.
From time to time, I jumped onto the flower bed, and then jumped off the flower bed, making a pouting sound in my mouth.
The behavior that is not in line with age has attracted strange eyes from passing pedestrians.
------
"I don't dare to die, I really don't dare to die." An old man with white hair and ravines on his face muttered to himself, as if he was talking to Ren Wu, and as if he was talking to himself.
"I killed too many people on the battlefield when I was young. God punished me. He asked my son and daughter-in-law to die on the battlefield. There is no one who can never die when I go to the battlefield. If I beat others to death, my son would kill my son. But why should I punish Junyi?"
"Junyi was diagnosed with a brain disease when he was born, and the doctor said it would be possible for his life... He had no ability to take care of himself at all."
"What should he do if I leave? No unit will ask him, and no one will be willing to take care of him. He can't take care of himself at all!" The old man's eyes were deep.
"So I don't dare to die, I don't dare to die..."
"I have some retirement grant every month, and I can still take care of him, even if I can take care of him for more than one year."
"Sometimes I'm wondering if I want to send him to prison."
"Isn't it ridiculous? Two generations of soldiers from my Xu family, his father even sacrificed his life for the country on the battlefield, but I, a grandfather, want to send him to prison."
"But someone can take care of him in prison! Even if it's okay to go to work every day, at least I don't have to worry that he will starve to death at home."
"As long as you can help me... what's wrong with giving you all my old bones!" the old man said calmly.
“…”
Ren Wu said helplessly, "Old man, your body is not good."
"It's always OK to persevere." The old man asked tentatively.
"We can only be ghosts." Ren Wu said, "Your body..."
Ren Wu sighed: "I can't believe it. My body is full of death, and some organs are even exhausted and unable to work. In this case, you can continue to persevere."
"Hahaha." The old man chuckled: "It all came out of the pile of dead people. Maybe this body would not dare to die, haha."
"Okay... Master, you have to remember what I said next."
......
The old man finally passed away two days later, and many people came on the day he left.
Some people want to take care of Xu Junyi for the sake of the old man.
But Xu Junyi finally escaped from the car and ran back to the old house. He held the old man's photo frame and refused to let go, and went crazy and tantrums.
"Your grandpa is gone."
"Nonsense, my grandfather just fell asleep. I'm going to wait for my grandfather to tell me a story." Xu Junyi made a big fuss.
“…”
Xu Junyi hid in the room alone and fell asleep in a drowsy way.
The old man was holding the photo frame in his arms, and the old man in the black and white photos looked deep.
"Hey..." The old man and Ren Wu's soul stood in front of the bed, but they could not touch Xu Junyi, nor could they talk to Xu Junyi.
"The soul was just born, but it was still too weak." Ren Wu said to the old man.
He had experience of soul leaving the body, and in the second world he became a vegetable soul leaving the body.
After staying in that world for nearly a year, I couldn't talk to others. You can imagine that the old man who had just become a soul.
However, Ren Wu's soul is much stronger than the soul of a normal person. Although he cannot appear directly in front of others and communicate with others, he can also send dreams.
The old man is strong in his life and does not like to ask for help.
Even before his death, there were not many people. He just told a few old comrades, saying that he might have to take the lead.
"Old man, what dream do you want to drag Junyi?"
The old man was stunned. After a while, he said slowly: "Tell him that grandpa will always be by his side and watch him grow up. When he grows up, grandpa will leave with confidence."
Xu Junyi is already twenty-five years old, and the growth that the old man said is definitely not about his body.
Ren Wu entrusted his dream to Xu Junyi truthfully.
I don’t know if Xu Junyi really heard it in his dream. He muttered something in his sleep, and his body shrank tighter, hugging the photo frame and himself into a ball.
The next day, Xu Junyi got up.
Looking at the empty room, Xu Junyi was stunned.
He habitually called out to grandpa twice.
But no one answered him.
Xu Junyi was a little panicked.
He opened the bedroom door and rushed to his grandfather's room.
Grandpa's room had a bed, a clean desk, a pot of small green plants on the windowsill, and a large wooden wardrobe.
Everything is familiar, but there is no familiar person.
Xu Junyi finally realized.
Grandpa is gone.
He collapsed on the ground and cried loudly.
Just like a child who has lost his favorite toys.
"Junyi? Junyi?" the old man shouted twice.
"He can't hear it." Ren Wu said.
The old man felt a little sad, but then his eyebrows stretched out, "This is good, it's good to see him. He always has to grow up, and I can't accompany him for the rest of my life."
Xu Junyi cried at home for more than ten minutes, but she stopped crying after she cried.
Sit up from the ground.
Xu Junyi's stomach made a guzzling sound.
Xu Junyi knew how to buy food, so he ran to the bedroom and tiptoed to hold the box placed on the cabinet.
A crisp sound of ping-bang came from the iron box.
Open the lid and there are all paper money and coins inside.
Xu Junyi murmured to himself: "One yellow, one green."
Draw two chapters of banknotes from it.
Then Xu Junyi pressed the lid, put the box back to its original place, and ran out of the house.
The owner of the breakfast shop is already familiar with Xu Junyi.
A little pitiful Xu Junyi, so he secretly picked up an extra big bun for him.
When he returned home, Ren Wu said to Xu Junyi.
"Junyi, your grandfather can't speak. I'll help him pass the message on behalf of your grandfather. Your grandfather is gone. You have to learn to be independent, learn to be strong, and learn to live alone in this world." Ren Wu and Xu Junyi said.
Xu Junyi raised his head, muttered to himself, and suddenly thought of something.
"Grandpa, grandpa..."
Xu Junyi threw the plastic bag with the bun in his hand on the ground and rummaged through boxes and cabinets at home.
He opened every drawer and looked carefully.
He hoped to see his grandfather in an open cabinet, and then the old man told him that he was just playing hide-and-seek.
In this way, he will have a grandpa again.
He is not alone.
He turned the whole family into a state of turmoil and had nothing.
Xu Junyi sat on the floor, staring at the wall stupidly in a daze.

ps: Because I have never written this type of character before, I went online to check some documentaries about low-intellectual children. What impressed me the most was their eyes. No matter how old they are, their eyes are very pure.
