Chapter 1669: Chapter 1669: Big Brother Eats for the Meaning
Little Taotie widened her big pupils, full of disbelief, with a trace of compassion flashing by.
Little Taotie used to think she was unlucky, but ever since she appeared on the show, being liked and noticed by more people, her luck has been getting better and better. She met Big Brother, Second Brother, Third Brother, and found her biological grandparents, brothers, father, and mother...
Because of the good days now, what does all the past suffering count for?
"I’m not willing!" A sharp cry came to her ears. Little Taotie turned her head to see Ghost with dead fish eyes whose pupils and whites had turned gray, his whole being emanating gray, a misty gray.
"No! Calm down!"
Little Taotie reached out to point at his brow, although he had lost his reasoning, he still consciously dodged.
If going crazy could make him forget the pain, then he didn’t want to calm down.
"Big Brother, you need to calm down!"
"Big Brother, do you want to reincarnate as a human?"
"Big Brother, if you go on like this, no one knows if you can reincarnate as a human in the end!"
"Big Brother, you must calm down!"
"Oh no, Big Brother, your gray is getting stronger, it’s about to turn black!!! Turning black, you’ll become an Evil Spirit, Evil Spirits can’t reincarnate, and even if they can, it’s very, very difficult!"
"You’ve been unlucky for a lifetime, do you want to throw away eternity? Big Brother, after reincarnation, you can become human, have a complete family! Don’t be confused!"
"Family..." On the verge of collapse, the blackness in Ghost’s pupils gradually turned black. Suddenly, the blackness paused in his gaze as if countless threads wanted to bind him but were driven away by his last bit of sanity, those threads either were assimilated by the gray or completely disappeared.
Although he didn’t turn into an Evil Spirit, the resentment on him was indeed a lot, already becoming a gray-toned existence.
Little Taotie stretched out her soft, white little hand, reaching for his brow.
This time, he didn’t dodge.
Little Taotie exhaled, finally grasping the almost tangible mass of gray. The little girl rolled and squashed it, the gray turning into another color in her hand - green, crystal clear, round, a sweet-scented candy.
Green?
Little Taotie looked at Ghost in confusion.
At this moment, Ghost’s eyes returned to their original state — dead fish eyes, with no gray resentment on him, though his transparency was slightly dimmer than at first.
Little Taotie asked, "Big Brother, what green food did you like most when you were alive?"
Dead fish eyes Ghost answered honestly, "Broccoli."
Little Taotie was stunned.
Broccoli???
It’s hard for any child to nod and agree: Yes, broccoli is delicious, the best!
With so many delicacies around, why does Big Brother uniquely like broccoli?
Facing the little girl’s incredulous gaze, dead fish eyes Ghost smiled awkwardly: "Old Granny was old and couldn’t find anything fresh for me. I was already more than ten years old then, and had never seen broccoli before. Hearing there’s an ’Xi’ word, I thought it was foreign goods, should be delicious. But there were many kids at Uncle’s house, only after they had finished could I get some or possibly none. I worried about having no chance to taste it. Who would’ve thought they just took a bite and didn’t eat more? I was so happy; it was my first time eating something new to my fill. After that, broccoli became my favorite, not because of its taste but for a kind of meaning."
Little Taotie blinked her big eyes, "In summary, Big Brother, you eat for the essence."
