"Thank you for your guidance, Doctor Wang. Hearing your words is better than reading books for ten years. I still have a long way to go in psychological counseling, and I hope to catch up with you soon."

The young sanatorium psychiatrist bowed sincerely to Wang Ke.

This was genuine admiration.

Because just now, Wang Ke not only answered his long-standing doubts in several areas, but also copied and gave him a copy of his classic case studies and disease analysis data over the years.

In every industry, regardless of China or foreign countries, there is actually a tradition of cherishing one's own broom. But Wang Ke's open and honest attitude of supporting younger generations really moved and conquered him.

"You're welcome, Doctor Zhao. If there is a chance in the future, we can have more exchanges. After all, as you can see, I expect to be here for a long time."

"It's my honor, thank you."

Doctor Zhao bowed again and then left.

Wang Ke took a deep breath, sat back in his chair, coughed a few times, took out a cigar box from the drawer, and prepared to light a cigar.

He can give anyone a feeling of being bathed in the spring breeze. This is his work habit and his philosophy of life.

Before he could pick up the cigar, a message was sent to his phone. It was a text message from a phone number without a note, with only three words:

[I'm here]

Wang Ke replied with two words:

[Come in]

Soon, the door was pushed open. The internal security system of the sanatorium was very strict. The fact that the other party could come in directly also showed that the other party's identity was extraordinary.

The other party was wearing a black coat, and his figure was a little hunched. When he came in, he habitually closed the door, and then sat down on the sofa on his own and poured himself tea.

This is a person who is nearly fifty years old. You can't call him an old man, because fifty years old is not considered old;

You can't call him a middle-aged person either, because he is no longer considered one;

In short,

This is a very awkward age,

So awkward that the half-black and half-white hair on the top of his head is telling all of this.

"Cough cough..."

The other party coughed heavily twice, took out a medicine bottle from his pocket, poured out two capsules, took them with water, tilted his head back, and heard two "glug glug" sounds, then lowered his head heavily again, panting continuously.

"I'm dying soon."

The other party's voice was a little hoarse, but this hoarseness did not give people a sense of weakness. Instead, it was like a tiger lurking, and anyone who dared to underestimate him would be subject to backlash.

"I know."

Wang Ke nodded and put down the cigar, because he knew that the man in front of him couldn't stand the smell of smoke now if he wanted to live a few more days.

The man raised his head, looked at the cigar, cracked his chapped lips, licked them with his tongue, looking very greedy, but still yawned, lowered his head again, spread his hands, and looked at the calluses on his palms,

He said in a deep voice:

"Two years ago, I asked you if you needed me to do it. You said wait a little longer. Do you know how I felt at that time?"

"You wanted to kill me."

Wang Ke replied calmly.

The old man smiled slightly, a little smugly, "My children, including my private doctor, all said that it's a small medical miracle that I can live to this day.

But they don't know why."

"So, you have to thank me."

"Thank you?"

The man suddenly raised his head, his eyes full of bloodshot eyes, and roared in a hoarse voice:

"Thank you for making me suffer for two more years?

Two years ago, when I was diagnosed and the doctor gave me a three-month deadline, I frantically called you to contact you, to repay the favor I owed you, but you refused. You said wait a little longer!

It was you,

Who made me unwilling to leave with your favor still owed,

It was you,

Who made me endure two more years of pain in vain!

Thank you,

I really thank you!"

"Two years ago, it was really not suitable," Wang Ke replied.

"You chickened out."

"Yes, I chickened out. Two years ago, those two people had just been released from prison. If they died suddenly, it would easily be associated with me.

I can't have any unexpected risks,

And I don't allow any risks that could cause me an accident!"

"Hehe, I know, it's not easy for a child from an orphanage to struggle to this day, so even this kind of hatred can be endured, for fear of losing everything he has.

You know,

My life experience of living for half a century tells me that sometimes the more you are afraid of losing something, the easier it is to lose it. Moreover, people like this are too tired to live, and it's not worth it."

"You're wrong, I'm not reluctant to part with money and status."

Wang Ke shook his head.

"That's true. If you go to Shanghai or other institutions, your development should be better, cough cough cough... Then, what are you reluctant to part with?"

"My wife, and my daughter."

"Does that bastard count too?"

Wang Ke's eyes widened suddenly, revealing a deep luster.

"You rarely get angry." The man laughed hoarsely again, "It seems that this is not a pretended loving father. How do you hypnotize yourself to treat a child who is not your daughter as your own?"

"She is Wang Ke's daughter.

No matter,

She,

Is human,

Or ghost!"

"Okay, okay, she is your daughter, your precious daughter."

The man stood up and gritted his teeth,

"This tiger of mine is about to lose its teeth. I'm really afraid, afraid that when you ask me to repay the favor, my teeth won't be able to kill anyone."

Saying that,

The man took out a handgun,

Waved it in front of Wang Ke, and said:

"When you contacted me, I took it out. You know what it means to use a gun in China."

Wang Ke looked at the man, tapping his fingers lightly on the table, and said:

"When I contacted you, I didn't know your situation. It wasn't until I met you a while ago that I..."

"Don't talk nonsense. The favor I owe you is what I owe you. This kind of thing should be repaid as long as I have a breath left!

It's a matter of course,

I believe this all my life.

Even if I know that firing this gun may ruin my accumulation in the first half of my life and the accumulation that my children hope I will leave behind, I still don't regret it."

Wang Ke shrugged. Persuasion was just a gesture, not really for persuasion.

"It's been two years. There shouldn't be any problems if those two people die again. At least, it won't attract too much attention. Moreover, once the investigation starts, I can help you carry it all on my back, and it won't fall on your head."

The man put the gun back on the coffee table and sat back on the sofa. He felt a little tired after standing for a while.

"The doctor told me to use crutches, but I can't use that thing. When I was young, I pointed at those old men with crutches and said to my brothers, if I ever get to the point where I have to walk with crutches, I'd rather put the muzzle in my mouth and pull the trigger myself."

"Yes."

"However, when the time comes, I suddenly find myself at a loss."

"What's wrong?"

The man reached out and touched the muzzle of the gun on the coffee table, and said:

"I can't use it anymore."

"Why?"

"Because the two people it was originally going to kill are already dead."

"Dead?"

Wang Ke slowly stood up,

"Did you have someone kill them?"

"Heh..."

The man spread his legs and laughed:

"I had someone investigate. After these two people were released from prison one after another, they soon hooked up again. They even called a few more people to dig graves and rob tombs in the wild.

As a result, they were unlucky, and the two of them died directly inside.

The police,

Are investigating this matter,

If I didn't know you, I would have thought you looked down on this sick tiger of mine and paid them to do black eats black to help you get revenge."

"I didn't."

"I know you didn't, because you would have let them die so simply. I also thought about helping you catch them and hand them over to you to deal with. Some anger has to be vented by yourself to be satisfying. I used to lick blood on the tip of a knife on the road, and I understand this principle best."

"Pa!"

The man clapped his hands,

"But there's no way now. Unless you run to hell to get their souls back, there's really no way. People are probably already reincarnated, hahaha... Cough cough cough...

In the end,

You, Wang Ke, still couldn't get revenge yourself."

"Dead... is good."

"Heh, I just can't stand your tone and attitude of being able to see through everything. Damn, what are you pretending for? You've been pretending for so long that it's become an instinct, aren't you tired?"

The man stood up and limped to leave.

"Gun," Wang Ke reminded.

"It's a toy, give it to your daughter to play with. The security check in this place is so strict, how could I bring a real thing in,

Are you stupid?"

After the man left,

Wang Ke turned his head and looked at his wife, who was still sitting in the yard and spacing out.

The wife seemed to sense something, turned her head to look at Wang Ke, and smiled at Wang Ke.

"The broth is almost ready, we can eat soon."

Wang Ke shouted.

"Okay, eat meat." The wife smiled happily.

Wang Ke put on his apron again,

Walked into the kitchen,

When cutting the last scallions and chives with a knife,

Looking at the blade,

He was stunned for a few seconds,

Muttering:

"Just like that... died?"

………………

More than twenty years ago,

Tongcheng Gangzha Qinzao Town Orphanage,

It's time to eat,

Each child was given a piece of preserved vegetable pork by the aunt. In this era, in this place, eating meat was indeed a very happy thing.

Although Chinese people are gradually getting rid of the era of not being able to afford to eat or eat meat, the conditions in orphanages are always generally slower than outside.

Two children sat together to eat,

The older child stared at the piece of meat for a long time, then picked up his chopsticks and gave it to the bowl of the child next to him who was a little shorter than him.

"Brother, aren't you eating?"

"No, you eat."

The shorter child was not polite and did not know how to be modest. He happily ate the two pieces of meat in his bowl, and his lips were full of oil stains.

"Aze, I want to make money in the future, make a lot of money."

The short boy picked up the rice grains from his mouth and put them into his mouth, and asked in a spreading voice:

"What do you want to make money for?"

"Make money to marry a wife."

"What do you want to marry a wife for?"

"After marrying a wife, give money to my wife, let her buy meat for me every day, cook for me, and let me eat meat every day!"

"Is that what marrying a wife means?"

"Yes, what's the use of marrying a wife who doesn't buy you meat to eat?

The doorman... Uncle Qin always shows off to us,

Saying that his wife buys him meat and makes braised pork every now and then,

So,

Marry a wife,

Is to make money for her to be responsible for buying meat!"

"Oh, I understand."

"Aze, what about you?"

"Brother, if you have meat to eat, I will have it too."

………………

In the woods,

Two walking corpses are still digging quickly,

They are tireless,

They don't know pain,

They only know how to complete the orders from above.

The pit is constantly deepening downwards at a speed visible to the naked eye,

Slowly, the roof beam structure of an ancient temple has been revealed.

In the distance,

Officer Zhang Yanfeng, who has always been focused on protecting his worldview,

He felt that his worldview had exploded all over the place,

He looked at the two walking corpses coming out of the trees from time to time,

From time to time, he looked at Zhou Ze who was standing there motionless,

Brother,

Is this what you said about protecting my worldview?

Is this what you said about letting me continue to live a normal life?

You let me see this,

How can I live a normal life?

Underground,

The Land God who already felt the cool top of his head was both angry and screaming below,

He scolded:

"You are doing evil!

Doing evil!

They invaded my temple and mausoleum, I killed them to warn others, it's a matter of course!

But I didn't imprison their souls, and let their souls go to hell to be reincarnated!

The body and soul are connected,

Therefore, people pay the most attention to the peace of the corpse after death, because this will affect the state of the soul in hell.

Now you turn their two corpses into walking corpses,

This is to make their two souls lose the chance of reincarnation forever even in hell,

Will endure the endless suffering of purgatory in hell,

And will never be reborn!"
