It was mostly blunt, feeling very vicissitudes, "Excuse me, has my father ever been here?"

Yaoying looked at him fixedly, without a trace of expression, and said after a long time: "I've been here."

Seeing hope, Zhou Ziyang immediately asked: "When did you come here? What is my father doing here? Can you tell me?"

Yaoying turned his head to look in the direction of the gate, a bolt of lightning suddenly fell from the rainy sky, and the white light made the room as bright as day for a moment, Zhou Ziyang also saw a smile on Yaoying's face at that moment, he blinked , but when he looked at the past again, it was that expressionless face again, and he couldn't help wondering if it was an illusion caused by lightning.

Shortly after the lightning, there was a thunderstorm, as if it was going to shatter people's eardrums. When everything was quiet again and only the sound of the rainstorm falling, Yaoying said lightly: "This is a shop. Of course, there is only one purpose for coming here.”

With black eyes shining, Zhou Ziyang felt his body was icy cold, his hairs were standing on end, and his back was wet with cold sweat, as if something was about to come out of his unemotional eyes, but he felt it again the next moment. It is to inhale something.Zhou Ziyang swallowed, and said in a trembling voice, "Excuse me?"

Another bolt of lightning fell, illuminating Yaoying's pale complexion, forming a sharp contrast with those bright black eyes. Zhou Ziyang wanted to turn his gaze away, but his eyes kept staring as if he did not obey his orders, until another A thunderstorm fell.

Zhou Ziyang looked at the pretty face in front of him without a trace of expression, and he also calmed down, with an uncertain tone: "You mean my father is here... to borrow his birthday?" Yaoying nodded, and he Laughing, "Living life is ridiculous! My father has never been a superstitious person. I find it hard to believe that he came here for this. Besides, I have heard of the life borrowing you mentioned. It doesn't have to be the dead. Is it possible for my relatives to voluntarily fast and burn incense to succeed? Then, how did my father complete the borrowing of life by himself? And who is he going to lend his life to?"

Meeting those eyes full of disbelief, Yaoying said indifferently: "What you said is just a common method among the people, but what is used here is not like that."

"What do you mean?"

"This place does not belong to any time. There is endless time here. As long as the customers who come here need it and exchange what they have, they can change to the corresponding time. This is the borrowing life of this store."

Lightning pierced the gray sky again, and the thunder was piercing, but it was far less terrifying than Yaoying's words.Zhou Ziyang obviously felt that his half-dry back was wet again, "You mean this store is selling time?"

"It can be said that when a person is about to die, his soul will never leave. If he is destined, he can come to the store. As long as he wants, he can exchange for time to fulfill his wish in life."

"At the time of dying...you mean my father is dying?" Zhou Ziyang stood up excitedly, "Impossible, my father has always been in good health, he is only in his 50s, how could he be dying !"

Yaoying looked at him quietly, without saying a word, those unemotional dark eyes were as quiet as a clear spring that no longer flowed, and his excited mood gradually calmed down, "Is what you said true? My father really What is..."

Seeing that he didn't answer, but just staring at himself, Zhou Ziyang knew what he said was true, so he fell back on the chair weakly and sat down.Suddenly, as if thinking of something, he stood up quickly and said, "Could it be that I also... No, I didn't suffer from any terminal illness, nor did I encounter any accidents..." Looking at Yaoying longingly, hoping that he would I can give myself a negative answer.

Yaoying still just looked at him, and when he was about to collapse in despair, he said softly: "You are not dead yet."

As if being pardoned, the corners of Zhou Ziyang’s mouth twitched lightly, wondering if he was smiling, but he frowned quickly and asked, “No, you’re talking about dying people coming here, I’m not dead yet, I’m dying soon right?"

Yaoying shook his head, giving Zhou Ziyang hope, "Then I won't die, right?"

"Everyone is going to die, sooner or later," Yaoying said lightly, "You just don't have to worry about your life for the time being."

That's the feeling of going from hell to heaven all at once, Zhou Ziyang thought.Smoothing his breathing and heartbeat, he said to himself again: "Then, my father really came here to borrow his birthday, but why did he borrow his birthday?" Looking up at the remote shadow sitting on the Lord's seat, it was as expected, He didn't answer, "Then can you tell me when my father came to the store?"

"A half month ago."

Half a month ago, it was the time when his father disappeared. That day he said that he had something to go out for a while, and he never came back. Then he encountered something when he went out that caused him to almost die, and then he came here by chance. In the store, did you make a deal with the owner and come back to life, so you went to fulfill his wish?

Zhou Ziyang lowered his head and thought for a while, then raised his head and asked, "What did he exchange for, and how long did he get in exchange for, can you tell me this?"

Yaoying looked at him and shook his head, "What happened here will only end here. No matter what kind of development will happen afterwards, it is also predestined, and it is not for outsiders." After finishing speaking, Zhou Ziyang raised his head and looked at the The sky outside, said, "It's late, you should leave."

Zhou Ziyang saw that he stood up and was about to leave, so he quickly stopped him, "Please wait..." At the same time as he spoke, Yao Ying, who was standing in front of the main seat, disappeared out of thin air.

After being stunned for a moment, he turned around and searched the hall a few times. Zhou Ziyang was sure that the man was gone, but how did he disappear out of thin air?Zhou Ziyang frowned, creaked, and pulled his thoughts back.Zhou Ziyang turned around and saw that the carved door that Yaoying had closed before was opened, and the sound of thunder and rain outside instantly became louder.A flash of lightning fell, illuminating a handsome young man standing by the door. He looked eleven or twelve years old, and was very cute. With one hand on the door, he stared at Zhou Ziyang with big bright red eyes, as if he was asking : Are you not leaving?

Zhou Ziyang breathed a sigh of relief, walked up to the boy, looked into his eyes, a little strange but didn't say it clearly, squatted down and smiled and asked, "Little brother, are you also from the store?"

The boy nodded, "Uncle, the master said you should go." The clear boy's voice was very sweet.

uncle?am i that oldZhou Ziyang smiled bitterly and continued to ask: "Is the master you are talking about Yaoying?" The boy nodded again, "Then can you tell me your name?"

"But born."

People here have weird names.Zhou Ziyang thought to himself, but still smiled and asked, "Then you can tell brother, have you seen this man?" He took out the photo of his father that he had shown Yaoying before.

Quesheng took a look at the photo, nodded and said, "Yes, this person came here half a month ago."

Seeing that there was hope, Zhou Ziyang continued to ask: "Then tell brother what this person did here?" Seeing that he frowned, pursed his lips, and looked very embarrassed, he said, "Tell brother, brother treats you to dinner." Is sugar okay?"

Hearing Tang, his big eyes flickered, but then quickly dimmed, showing hesitation.Seeing that the other party was hesitant, Zhou Ziyang stepped up his temptation, "Not only candy, but also cake, ice cream, biscuit and chocolate, whatever else you like, brother can treat you to eat."

"Well..." Hearing so much food, he bit his finger, rolled his eyes, and said in a low voice, "Okay, I'll tell you, but you can't say I told you, master? happy."

"Okay, I won't say anything." Zhou Ziyang promised with a smile, but he thought in his heart that this child is really easy to coax, but when he saw that Quesheng stretched out his little finger, he didn't know why, "This is it?"

"La hook, those who lie will be punished by heaven." Quesheng tried his best to put on a very serious expression, but the little fat on his face made his expression a little funny, Zhou Ziyang held back his smile and pulled hook with him , "Okay, now you can tell brother."

But Sheng put down his hands, recalled the situation of that day, and whispered: "That day when this man came to the store, the owner received him and told him the function of this store, so he also borrowed his birthday from the owner, I remember him He used an ancient painting to borrow two years of his life from the master, saying that he was going to find his lost wife and child." After finishing speaking, he looked at Zhou Ziyang in front of him and asked, "Uncle, why are you asking this?"

Zhou Ziyang thought to himself, shouldn't this kind of question be asked first.But he didn't say it clearly, but was thinking about what he said just now - the father borrowed his birthday to find his lost wife and children, did the father have women besides the mother?Never heard of it.

"uncle."

Zhou Ziyang was thinking about it, but he pulled his sleeve and shook it. His big black eyes were pure and dirty, and his heart felt inexplicably soft, "What?"

"Uncle, where's the sugar?"

"Eh..." Zhou Ziyang finally realized, but he didn't have the habit of carrying candy with him, but looking at those big pure eyes, he couldn't tell that it was just an expedient measure for gathering information, "Here, brother I didn’t bring any sugar, so I’ll bring it to you when I come next time, okay?”

Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, he looked like he was being cheated. He cried and said, "Uncle, you are a liar. Uncle is a big liar! You will be struck by lightning!" After finishing speaking, he ran away.

Seeing that Quesheng ran away suddenly, Zhou Ziyang was about to chase after him, but found that there was no one in the not-so-large hall. The guilt and strangeness in his heart rose together.A thunderstorm fell, Zhou Ziyang raised his head to look at the sky, frowned, thinking that he would not be really hit by that child, and wanted to
