"Beep ~"
After a series of beeping sounds, the call connected.
"Hello, Xiao Ci, why did you call me?”
The person who spoke was his uncle, Xu Mingchang.
Great-grandfather was too old and needed someone to take care of him. He didn't want to find a nanny, so it was usually the younger generation in the family who took turns to take care of him.
"Uncle, I'm looking for great-grandfather. Is he asleep?”
Hearing this, Xu Mingchang was slightly taken aback. He didn't expect that he would be looking for the old man. This was new.
He felt pity for his nephew.
He had fallen seriously ill when he was young, which led to his current appearance. Ever since then, he had become introverted.
Usually, other than the New Year's family gathering, she rarely saw him. She did not expect him to take the initiative to call today.
" He hasn't slept yet. He's old. He's either sleeping all the time or he can't fall asleep. Obviously, our old man is the type who can't fall asleep."
" He's still watching the TV series. He's scolding me as he watches, and he's enjoying it!"
Hearing his uncle's words, Xu Ci's gloomy mood relaxed a lot.
She remembered that it was the same during the new year.
Thinking about it, she could get the answer from great-grandfather ~
"Old Master, Xiao Ci is looking for you!”
After a short while, a familiar old voice sounded.
"Hello, Xiao Ci, how's your health recently? Are you eating well? Have you found a partner?"
Great-grandfather's voice was very loud.
Although he was already very old, his spirit was hard to catch up to the younger generation.
Xu Ci smiled bitterly when he heard his great-grandfather's words.
These words should have belonged to him, except for the last sentence.
He didn't expect to be asked the other way around.
Even so, Xu Ci could feel his great-grandfather's concern for him from his words.
" Yeah, it's pretty good. It's just that my mom is too tired and has been taking care of me all this time."
"Yanzi is a good daughter. You can't make him angry!”
He sighed.
"By the way, Mingchang said that you were looking for me?”
Hearing this, Xu Ci took a deep breath and told his mother what he had said earlier.
He nervously waited for his great-grandfather's reply, not wanting to miss out on a single word.
While they waited nervously.
A slightly angry roar went straight to Xu Ci's head.
"Just this?"
"You know, back then, not to mention one for three, even the three she brewed were worth it!”
"I can wake up laughing even in my dreams!"
"If my old comrades knew what was happening now, they would jump out of the ground.”
"You bastard, you've been holding it in at home every day.”
Xu Ci's mouth was wide open. He did not expect things to turn out like this. He was scolded by the old master!
However, when he heard his great-grandfather's words, the confusion in his heart completely disappeared.
On the other side, Little Uncle seemed to think that Old Master was going overboard. He quickly snatched the phone away and comforted Old Master not to be too agitated.
"Xiao Ci, you're really amazing. Either you don't contact me, or you directly make a big deal out of it!”
"What did you ask to make the old master so excited?”
Xu Ci felt a little awkward when he heard his uncle's words.
It's nothing. Old Master wants me to find a partner ~
"I said that no girl would like me like this, so he was angry!”
Xu Mingchang was dumbfounded. The old man had clearly scolded Xu Ci for exchanging one for three, or three for one. Could it be that the old man wanted Xu Ci to find three?
This is a civilized society!
At the thought of this, he quickly told Xu Ci,""Don't listen to the old man's nonsense. Just find one!”
Then, the sound of the phone hanging up and the old man's angry roar before hanging up could be heard.
"Brat, are you saying that I'm talking nonsense?"
Xu Ci looked at his phone. He was a little confused and helpless, as if something had gone wrong.
However, after this commotion and the old man's words, Xu Ci completely understood.
Although the old man was still stuck in that era, there was one thing he heard.
Those people had sacrificed themselves. It was a pity and a pain.
In the old master's heart, it was not a loss to exchange one for three. However, for those who had not experienced that era, it was a loss!
This was because behind these lives were families.
He looked at the words on the notebook. This way, many people might not have to be sacrificed, right?
After making up his mind, Xu Ci felt much more relaxed.
After paying thirty years of lifespan, he only had three days left!
If he did not reap the fear, then his life would be over.
After the payment was completed, Xu Ci felt that something had been extracted from his body. It was probably his lifespan.
After the energy left his body, it gradually attached itself to the words in the notebook.
Under Xu Ci's shocked gaze, the words seemed to come alive. They turned into tiny characters that crawled into his phone on the table and disappeared.
"This?"
Even though Xu Ci was mentally prepared, he still felt a chill run down his spine when such a strange thing happened in front of him.
The moment the words disappeared, another string of information appeared in front of Xu Ci.
monument
[Value: 30 years of lifespan]
Spread: None
[Fear Harvest: 0]
At the same time, the number that indicated his lifespan had less than three days left. It quietly decreased before his eyes…
【71:45:39】
【71:45:38】
……
Looking at the time that was decreasing, Xu Ci thought a lot.
"Three days?"
He suddenly realized that he still had many things he wanted to do.
He wanted to see this country, to experience the local customs, to run, to jump ~
At the same time, he also wanted to find someone to love and spend the rest of his life with.
No matter how open-minded he was, he could not help but feel a little depressed.
As for regret?
However, he didn't feel much. He just felt that he had let down the people who cared about him, especially his mother.
After experiencing a day of ups and downs, her weak body could no longer withstand the pressure.
She tried her best to climb onto the bed and fell asleep.
In his dream, he seemed to have dreamt that he had arrived at a place covered in snow. He saw a figure covered in snow.
However, she could not see his face clearly. She could only see his smiling eyes.
He seemed to have said something. The snow was too heavy and the wind was too strong. Xu Ci couldn't hear it clearly, but he saw the standard military salute clearly.
……
Zhang Yan gently walked into Xu Ci's room. She looked at the lamp that was still on and the honeydew that had not been eaten. She felt a little helpless.
She walked over lightly, but her expression suddenly froze.
Looking at the happy smile on her son's sleeping face, the corners of her eyes were a little moist.
It had been a long time since she had seen her son show such an expression.
She was even more careful as she walked out of the room gently, afraid that her actions would wake up her sleeping son.
……
In this quiet night, a strange piece of news gradually appeared on the Internet.
