I withdrew my eyes from the plate of sweet and sour fish, looked at the small pillar that was still sleeping on Sang Lan's lap, and couldn't help frowning.

This dog thing doesn't seem to be as divine as Sang Lan said, how can he sleep so peacefully?

I didn't pay attention to the others, thought about it for a while, and asked Sang Lan: "Earlier, you said that the moon lantern was used to borrow Yin Shou?" Who is the borrowed Yin Shou for? ”

Sang Lan was stunned, and subconsciously glanced at Lu Zhen and Lao Hao and others, and saw that Lu Zhen's mind was not on the table, Lao Hao only cared about drinking and eating, so he whispered to me:

"The sky lantern borrows life, and naturally it will not be for the living. You also know that I have just opened the incense hall, and my understanding of these things comes from Hu Qiaoyan's consciousness, so I can't explain it very clearly. ”

"Pick what you know." My eyes rolled slowly, "You say, what will happen to the person who is lit with a sky lantern?" ”

Sang Lan shook her head, "I really can't say this clearly, the sky lantern is made of corpses as wax, and what is burned is the soul of a person." The soul that is lit may not necessarily dissipate, but it is certain that on the night of the full moon, the soul returns to the human lantern spirit platform, and the pain it suffers is not something that ordinary people can imagine. Therefore, the person who is made into a sky lantern should be not much worse than the lower eighteen layers of hell. ”

"It's not a thing! Such a sin must be suffered when a man dies! Shi Fatzi gritted his teeth and scolded, "Don't let me see the person who made the child into a sky lantern, otherwise Lao Tzu will have to pinch him to death!" ”

I didn't want to hear him talk nonsense, but when he said the second half of the sentence, I suddenly felt that his voice was exceptionally clear. It was as if in an instant, all the sounds around him had disappeared, and he was the only one muttering.

This strange phenomenon was only fleeting, and by the time I looked at the others, the noise had returned to my surroundings, which made me think for a moment that this might be my delusion.

However, it made me believe in one more thing......

My mind spun quickly, I raised my hand and knocked twice on the table, and asked Xu Ronghua, "Do you have anything else to say to me?"

Xu Ronghua was stunned, as if he saw something in my eyes, and his expression became a little complicated.

"Hehe, it seems that you are more capable than I thought, so you don't have to worry about me in the future."

Xu Ronghua smiled a little bitterly and shook his head: "You just need to remember that after you go back, you must find the things that your grandfather left you as soon as possible." ”

He seemed to suddenly think of something, "By the way, there is another thing, when your grandfather took me to the post station, he once said that he felt that there was something wrong with the post station." I asked him what was wrong. He just shook his head and said it didn't help telling me. In addition to asking me to tell you to go and get the two things back, he also asked me to tell you a word when he said this. ”

"What?"

I still remember Xu Ronghua telling me about the first time he was taken to the Yinyang Station, perhaps because that experience was particularly impressive to him, so he said it in great detail.

However, from the beginning to the end, he never mentioned that my grandfather had given me something, let alone that my grandfather had asked him to bring me a message.

Referring to what his grandfather asked him to tell, Xu Ronghua's expression became a little puzzled, "Your grandfather only asked me to tell you two words: mirror." ”

"Mirrors?"

"Yes, mirror." Although Xu Ronghua was puzzled, he nodded with certainty.

It was when he nodded that his expression suddenly froze, and to me, it seemed like the movie scene suddenly froze.

By the time he recovered and looked at me again, his expression had become strange, as if he and I were just strangers.

At this moment, I seemed to understand a little bit about what he had said earlier about the 'residual consciousness'.

Although there are still many questions, I know in my heart that I can no longer understand anything I want to know through Xu Ronghua in front of me.

After a short pause, I turned my gaze back to Lao Hao again.

Lao Hao picked up his wine glass and smiled at me, "Let's drink another one?" ”

"I won't drink the wine." I flipped the glass in front of me over, and the wine in the glass spilled over the table.

"I'll go, you're too drunk, and you're going to go crazy?" The fat man was startled.

I ignored him, but stared at Lao Hao, and said slowly:

"I'm more curious about who you are than what you are. Who are you? What is the purpose of bringing me in? ”

For a while, the fat man and Sang Lan were all stunned.

Lao Hao didn't seem to expect that I would suddenly 'turn my face', the corners of his mouth twitched, and he smiled reluctantly, "Little comrade, you ...... Are you really drinking too much? I...... I'm a farmer, I'm a ......."

"Do you think it's interesting to pretend to be here? You have too many flaws to put on. ”

I interrupted him abruptly, "First, I've met Hao Xiangrou and know the way she speaks. When she introduces you, it's not her tone, or rather, it's not her style at all, and she doesn't need to introduce you to us at all. Her tone sounds similar to yours, like you're introducing yourself. The key is that you say you are her second uncle, or your second uncle. Even if she dislikes you, a poor relative, as Du Hanzhong, even if she does it for others to see, she will not snub you and let you sit in this position.

Second, from the moment you came, I smelled not only a smell of earthy seeds, but also a smell of wine. You've been drinking before you came in, haven't you? The point is, before and after this feast began, I didn't smell it on anyone but you. I shook hands with the female manager who greeted the guests, and I was not far from Hao Xiangrou just now, but these two women didn't even have the slightest smell of cosmetics. And ......"

I turned the wine glass in front of me over again, raised my hand and pointed to the dishes on the table: "If you want to say that my nose is not breathable, the smell of sweet and sour fish is so big, the soup is poured on me, I can't smell it, is that right?" ”

When I said this, Lao Hao had been staring at me intently, and then he straightened his waist, and his face was no longer as cramped and timid as before, but he lifted his glasses and asked in a deep voice: "In addition to these, is there a third?" ”

I turned my face to Sang Lan and the fat man, "Third, I deliberately mentioned the matter of the sky lantern just now, the three of us are talking so quietly, and there is so much noise around us, others will never hear what we are saying." But I'm sure you heard it all. Otherwise, the other sounds wouldn't have gone away. The other voices are gone, because you are distracted by the fact that you are trying to hear what we are saying, or rather because our conversation has attracted your full attention! ”

I leaned forward, looked straight at Lao Hao, and said word by word:

"I don't know who you are, but I know that in addition to being the sixth guest at this table, you are also the person who led us into this bureau, and you are the fifth living person in the current Sanyi Garden!"
