Uncle Yu prepared a table full of fine dishes, every one of them capable of crushing similar dishes from the nearby restaurants.
When Aunt Tang saw Uncle Yu carrying out the dishes and heard him say that, she asked in confusion:
"Inviting ghosts to dinner? What's going on?"
Uncle Yu said nothing, and Master did not answer immediately either. He merely said:
"Sit, sit. Let's talk while we eat!"
As he spoke, the three of us took our seats.
I had been hungry for a while. Now that my sense of taste had recovered, so had my appetite, and I got hungry quickly.
But neither Master nor Uncle Yu picked up their chopsticks, so I did not either.
Seeing me swallow repeatedly, Uncle Yu said directly:
"Xiao Jiang, don't just sit there. Dig in."
"Right, eat! Jiaojiao, you eat too."
Only after I saw Master and Uncle Yu pick up their chopsticks did I start eating, piling fish and meat into my bowl.
Master only took one bite before saying to Aunt Tang:
"Here's the situation. A ghost came to buy Yin lifespan a few days ago, and Xiao Jiang told him to come tonight.
"That ghost may have an invitation from Carefree Tower on him, so I had Yu Long come over and cook.
"We'll see if we can trade something else for the invitation on him.
"After all, sooner or later, we have to enter that place..."
Aunt Tang clearly knew something about such matters. Upon hearing this, she looked at Master and said:
"Old Song, Old Yu, are you really planning to go there?
"Very few people who enter that place come out alive.
"And besides, besides, it's a place where dead people and evil spirits gather..."
Yet this time, Master and Uncle Yu both nodded firmly
