Chapter Four: Dying of Old Age

This death Person or door close,He ignored me, and I was almost in tears. I rushed...Looking back, I realized that Grandpa Ye Beibei, who had been so close to me, was floating. How could a person float? What else could it be but a ghost?

"die A person dies people……"

I knocked on the door.With a bang, the door finally opened, and the first thing I saw was a pair of venomous eyes staring at me. I immediately shuddered and instinctively took a few steps back. I regretted it.Yes, I've discovered...It's much scarier than a ghost.

Grandpa Ye Beibei and I used to have a good relationship, even if he changed...Even if it were a ghost, it wouldn't harm an orphan like me, who has no parents.

"What's all the noise about?"

This deathThe person walked out step by step, their voice exceptionally cold and clearly filled with anger, staring at me, "What you just said..."What about me?

"No, it's nothing..." I quickly replied.Shake head.

This death human eye brows Lock glanced outside, then actually walked right out. Grandpa Ye Beibei was still outside!Surprisingly, there wasn't a single thing on his face.Despite my fear, I gritted my teeth and mustered my courage to go out and follow...After that, this death Humans are more terrifying than ghosts; indeed, Grandpa Ye Beibei saw death.He instinctively took a step back.

"Don't follow me!"

This deathThe person glanced at me, their voice icy cold, so I naturally stopped and looked at them.They walked to the fence, their eyes...changeHe glanced at Ye Beibei's grandfather a few times and said, "You old man, you're dead, so just go to the underworld and be reincarnated as a human. What are you doing here?"

"I died suddenly, I died unjustly, I just saw this..."I only found out when I suddenly appeared that an adult had come to our village."Master, could you please tell me if I'm dead or not?"

Grandpa Ye Beibei immediately spoke, his voice light and airy, like an echo, making me dizzy.

But I find it strange, there is...Emerging, whatWhy didn't I see it? I subconsciously glanced back, but still nothing. And then there was this dead...People will become adults? ?

II realized that Grandpa Ye Beibei was flattering me, but what I found even stranger was that Grandpa Ye Beibei...He's doing well. The other day I saw him riding his bicycle alone to the city, over 30 kilometers away. He went in the morning and came back in the afternoon.Lang'sHow could he have died so suddenly?

I mustered my courage and walked over, cautiously asking, "Grandpa Bei, were you murdered?"

"close"Which eye of yours saw him being murdered?"

This deathThe person glanced at me, and I arrived.I couldn't say anything more, I just expressed my thoughts.Why are you being so fierce?

"Grandpa, go do what you need to do, don't disturb my rest."

This deathPeople started talking and then turned around.I wanted to go back inside, but I was so angry that I ran to...Blocked ahead,Since they are not afraid of ghosts,You need to give Grandpa Ye a reasonable explanation to get him to leave. If you just kick him out, how can he leave? If he doesn't leave, how am I supposed to get some sleep?

He stared at me coldly and said, "Get out of my way!"

"I won't leave. You're not afraid of ghosts, but I am..." I mustered my courage and said.top.

"You're scared? Didn't you just say he was murdered? If you're so good at this, go and seek justice for him."onesneer.

I was speechless after hearing that. What kind of look would I have? I just felt that...It's illogical that the old man Lang died suddenly, which is why I said that, but it was...That really got to me, and my stubbornness kicked in. I pressed on, "Then why do you say he wasn't murdered? And what makes you say that?"

"Why should I? Because you're an i***t, just you wait and see!"

As he spokeShe grabbed my shoulder and shoved me towards her, forcing me to look at Ye Beibei's grandfather. She pulled me closer, and seeing his deathly pale face, I was terrified.Struggling and resisting, butBut she held me tightly and said coldly, "You've seen clearly, and you've heard clearly. I'll only say this once!"

As she spoke, she pointed to Grandpa Ye Beibei's face and said, "In our eyes, a person's face is called a physiognomy, and the physiognomy corresponds to a person's life. Birth, aging, sickness, and death, fortune and misfortune, poverty and decline, are all hidden on this face with its eyes, ears, mouth, and nose. Look carefully at where I'm pointing! Above the center of the eyebrows, in physiognomy it's called the 'Palace of Fate.' This place can reveal a lot. His Palace of Fate..."The luster is as pale as water, even tinged with a light red, clearly a sign of dying peacefully in one's sleep, which can also be called a "joyful death." If there is black...A dull complexion doesn't necessarily mean something is bad, but what exactly do you see wrong in his life palace?

This deathA human voice rang in my ears, immediately stunning me. Grandpa Ye Beibei was also a little stunned.Are you talking about facial features? This is dead.What is the purpose of human beings?

"Did you see that clearly?"The cold, icy voice rang in my ears again.

I was stunned.They shook me hard a few times, and I grimaced in pain.of,I looked at the area above Grandpa Ye Beibei's brow, and there was no black spot.I discovered that it really is a little bit red.It's a red that looks like the color of a happy occasion. Could it really be that someone died peacefully at an old age?

I know that dying peacefully in one's sleep is a happy occasion.

But... there's a black mark on the middle of Grandpa Ye Beibei's nose.Ah, it looks like the black guy got punched."What does this mean?" I pointed at Grandpa Ye Beibei's nose and asked, "Isn't that black?""Huh?"

"i***t!"

This deathThe man immediately cursed at me, then continued, "The area above the brow is the Palace of Destiny, but the space between the brow and the tip of the nose is called the 'Palace of Wealth,' one of the twelve palaces of face reading, representing money. The black spots in his Palace of Wealth..."This indicates that he lost some money, and his smear campaign..."It's fading from memory, which means it happened some time ago, about three months ago. I'm asking you, were you scammed recently? Was it for a thousand?"

He then questioned Ye Beibei's grandfather, who immediately...Out of surpriseThe head seems smallHe nodded repeatedly, as if eating rice. "You're truly a genius! Yes, I got scammed out of over nine hundred yuan in the city last time... I was so angry... If only I had met you sooner, Master, I might not be dead today..."

He sighed as he spoke, "Just now, someone died..."He clearly heard what the person said to him and knew that no one had harmed him; he died of natural causes.

Therefore, deathWhy would anyone let me use the money Ye Beibei gave me to buy a wreath?

dieThe man shook his head. "You're overthinking it. Fate can be calculated and predicted, but even if you came to me today, you would still die tonight, and die in pain and fear. If the King of Hell wants you to die at midnight, he won't keep you alive until dawn. Don't you understand this after living all these years? Go home and wait."Someone will come to pick you up; dust to dust, ashes to ashes. Once a person is dead, don't dwell on it.Any gapsAnd don't bother your family, otherwise it won't be good for them...

After saying this, he turned aroundHe was about to walk into the house when Ye Beibei's grandfather hurriedly said, "I won't disturb them, but I have some savings that my son and daughter-in-law don't know where I put. Could you go and talk to them? It's in the second brick of the third row on the left wall of the kitchen. There are several thousand yuan in it, enough for Beibei to wear new clothes for several years."Clothes"It's tuition, thank you..."

dieThe person walked straight into the house without saying a word or pausing. I hurried...He followed them inside, but Ye Beibei's grandfather...He said something to me, and I hesitated for a moment before turning back to look at him. I saw that he looked anxious, so I gritted my teeth and nodded. "Don't worry, I'll talk to Ye Beibei's father. You can go back now..."

"good……"

Grandpa Ye Beibei breathed a sigh of relief.He smiled kindly and waved to me, then put his hands behind his back and slowly turned around, as if coming home.As I walked into the darkness and watched him leave, I covered my face.I breathed a heavy sigh of relief. Did I see a ghost today?

I felt like I was dreaming.

My heart was pounding so hard, I went back into the main room and hurried...The door was closed, and I saw the dead.The door to the room was already closed, butA voice rang out, "Remember this: utter nonsense! Never believe a ghost's words!"

I was stunned.What does this mean? Does it mean that Grandpa Ye Beibei lied to me about where he hid his secret stash of money when he asked me to go to his house?

I was furious. Couldn't I tell if he was lying or not? We're from the same village, why would he lie to me? I couldn't help but mutter under my breath, "I think you're the least trustworthy person!"people……"

After saying this, I prepared to go back into the house, but...The door suddenly opened.He strode out menacingly, his venomous eyes fixed on me. "Say what you just said again!!"
