The old man's footsteps were obviously hesitant, but even so, he finally arrived in front of the club owner.
The maid pulled out a chair for him, and Old Feng sat down uneasily.
"Am … am I dreaming?" Old Feng sat down and asked subconsciously.
Luoqiu waved his hand to let You Ye leave and serve tea, "You can think of it as a dream, a real dream. Of course, it's up to you whether it's a dream or not. "
Old Feng raised his head and looked from the left to the right. Then he turned around and looked at the strange decorations. Finally, he fixed his eyes on the mysterious guy in front of him.
A bitter smile appeared on the old man's face. "A long time ago, I believed that karma exists in the unseen world. Now that I'm here, I'm even more certain of this. "
"Why do you say that?" Luoqiu was interested to know what the old man, who would spend the rest of his life in prison, was thinking about.
Old Feng sighed, "Thirty-five years ago … I was still young, and I made a big mistake. But I didn't have the courage to face it, so I chose to escape. I thought I could escape … and I did escape for a long time. "
Old Feng smiled happily, "At that time, I made a living by my craftsmanship, and then I married a good wife. And a new life will soon come to our home. "
However, he quickly shook his head and said, "I thought I was lucky in my life. However, I know that even if you manage to escape, there will be a day where you can make up for your mistakes. If you don't take the initiative, God will punish you sooner or later. "
"Yes." Luoqiu nodded, "Old man, do you think your wife's death is a delayed retribution?"
Old Feng smiled bitterly.
He didn't continue this topic, but begged, "I can't make up for my mistakes. God didn't kill me, but let me live. I dare not complain. Because this is what I deserve. "
With a sigh, Old Feng lowered his head and said word by word, "What do I have to give you, so that … so that I can get back what I lost?"
"You just want to see your daughter?" Luoqiu asked softly.
"I don't dare to ask her to forgive me. This is what I deserve. " Old Feng raised his head. He was balding, so he looked older now, "Even if it's just a glance from afar, just a glance is enough."
"Just a glance …" Luoqiu paused for a while, and then several cards with strange patterns appeared on the table, "These are the things you can use to pay."
Old Feng opened the first card, "Memories?"
He shook his head … For a man who could only live in prison, memories were the most precious assets.
There was no love, no career, no choice, and he couldn't say he had happiness.
Because in this atonement place, he couldn't have these things anymore. Because his sentence was life imprisonment.
The memories of his daughter, his wife, his sanity … his health, his lifespan, and finally, doing good deeds.
"Doing good deeds?"
"Yes, doing good deeds. You don't have much time, just one year."
Luo Qiu nodded, "In fact, I suggest that you choose the option that takes less time to do good deeds. Because the shorter the time, the higher the chance to complete the task. Of course, the shorter the time, the less the purchasing power. But you just want to see her, that's enough. But … "
"But what?" Feng Guichun became nervous … He knew that the one who was making a deal with him was not a living Bodhisattva.
"But I don't suggest you to choose the last option," Luoqiu said slowly, "As far as I know, there are still relatives of the people you killed."
Old Feng's face changed, he lowered his head and smiled bitterly, "You mean, as long as I'm alive, it's a sin for that person's relatives … right?"
"Well …" Luoqiu moved his posture and said softly, "Let's put it this way, many things have been forgotten with the passage of time. But no one can be sure that they won't be remembered one day. The occasional memory of the person you hate will cause grief in your heart. If this grief appears in one year, according to the spirit of the contract, you will be considered as breaching the contract … Then, we have to deduct from other parts of your body. I'm afraid you don't want to see this kind of deduction. So, the last option is a gamble. "
"It seems to be the best choice, but it's also an impossible choice …" Old Feng shook his head and said gratefully, "But, thank you for reminding me."
Boss Luo kept silent for a while and said indifferently, "Don't mention it, I was criticized not long ago … Well, I've been reflecting on it recently."
Old Feng sighed again, "I don't dare to gamble … I ran away that year, which was also a gamble of my life, but I lost it completely. If I can see my daughter with half a year of my life, I'm willing to spend more time, three years or even five years, I hope … "
He took a deep breath, "I hope I can see the day she gets married … even if it's just in a corner. If I can see her being blessed and happily married, I … I will have nothing to worry about. "
"Five years it is."
"Deal!" Old Feng nodded heavily.
"Thank you for coming, my guest."
Luoqiu stood up and showed the most serious courtesy to the guest.
…
Old Feng waved his hand and disappeared from the club.
The parchment that had just been signed rolled up in the air and finally fell into Luo Qiu's hand.
He handed the parchment to You Ye.
But before Miss. Maid had time to speak at this time, Tai Yinzi, who was ready to make a move, had already rushed to say, "Congratulations master, you have completed another transaction. But I didn't expect that Feng Guichun's request was so simple. "
"It's just a simple meeting." Luo Qiu smiled faintly.
Tai Yinzi hurriedly said, "Master, I'll definitely find someone with a bigger demand next time! This is just a small start! Then, I won't disturb you and Miss You Ye, I'm going to work now! "
Luoqiu said, "Taiyinzi, what are you going to do?"
Taiyinzi said, "To save master's cost, I'll get Feng Guichun out directly. Anyway, it's only until his daughter's wedding day. It's not a big deal! Just possess one of the prison guards, and he can be released in a few minutes! "
"Well, you're quite straightforward."
"Not at all, I'm just thinking for master." Taiyinzi said modestly.
Unexpectedly, Boss Luo changed the topic, "But, I want to change the way."
"Master, please! I'll do anything!! "
Boss Luo smiled, "Let Feng Guichun out, then … you go in."
"What?"
Taiyinzi … Taiyinzi opened his mouth.
…
…
Taiyinzi opened his mouth and then closed it mechanically. The food in his mouth was like chewing wax for him … Although, the prisoners here all said that the dishes in the canteen were good.
"Brother, what's wrong? Is it not to your taste? "Zhou Xiaokun got closer and asked in a low voice.
Taiyinzi glanced at this guy … He knew that in Zhou Xiaokun's eyes, or even in everyone's eyes, he was actually Old Feng.
Who asked him to sit in this cafeteria with Old Feng's appearance?
"Nothing, I just …" Taiyinzi sighed, squinting at the incandescent lamp on the ceiling of the canteen, saying softly, "I'm just a little sad."
"I understand. Brother, don't think too much. "
Zhou Xiaokun could only pat this brother's shoulder and stay silent with him.
Taiyinzi glanced at Zhou Xiaokun.
