If this is sleep, I would rather think that I have been kidnapped by a coma, I don't know if I am alive or dead, or I am struggling in pain in the midst of the raging flames, trying to open my eyes but not being able to do so, my head is blank and unconscious, leaving only the instinct to struggle and resist. The tearing pain in my abdomen tormented my whole body every moment, and I thought that the pain of Prometheus, who was tied to the mountain, had his liver torn off by an eagle every day, was so desperate.

Perhaps this is what hell is like, inflicting physical, mental, and soul torture on sinful people all the time, and perhaps after experiencing the pain of these so-called atonements, even those who think they are innocent no longer understand and clearly understand the meaning of atonement itself. In the end, the last trace of humanity was wiped out in the torture of hell, and he completely became a ghost.

Perhaps, I am gradually becoming insane in this kind of torture, so I want to die immediately, and I have been hoping that the next second will die quickly to end such a painful life.

"......"

I heard the burning sound, followed by a sharp pain in my abdomen, which felt like a row of coals in my stomach burning the crack in my abdomen. A scorching smell rushed straight to my head, and it was really an irresistible force that woke me up from my coma. When I opened my eyes, I saw a man who looked like a man in the West, with brown hair and a somewhat old face, who was skillfully removing the red coals from my stomach with a special metal clip and placing them in the burning brazier beside me.

"Luga, how are you feeling?"

Seeing that I had woken up, the doctor looked at me with a loving smile and asked with concern.

"Me? Luga? ”

I'm not surprised by this, I don't change my name or surname, my name is Liu Ende, why am I called Lujia here?

"Sir, you must have recognized the wrong person." I hurriedly explained: "I admit that there are people in this world, including the underworld, who look the same, which will make people indistinguishable for a while, but I really don't call Luga. ”

"Hey! Don't fool me! I don't know where the laughter is, but as soon as I finished speaking, the old man burst out laughing. I was blinded by his laughter, and I didn't have any contact with this old guy, and he was probably the first foreign old man I had ever seen in ancient costume. But why was he able to tell who I was?

He pointed at me, laughing so much that his face wrinkled two more, only to hear the old man continue: "Little Luga, don't you play stupid with me, you haven't recognized me for only two years?" ”

I just shook my head, this is really telling the truth, I really don't know this foreigner. What he said was also inexplicable.

"Good! You brat! ”

The wrinkles on the old man's face relaxed, and the original smile was gone, replaced by an angry look, "Okay, I didn't expect that the change in people after joining the army would be so incredible, Lu Jia, I think you not only have your stomach cut open on the battlefield, but even your head has been broken!" As he spoke, the old man raised his hand and slammed his fist at my head. It hurts so much that I scream that it hurts!

"What's wrong? What's wrong? ”

At this moment, the wooden door not far away creaked open, and I saw an old woman dressed in very simple burlap and with gray and messy hair running into the house in a panic, striding and settling slightly, and must have heard my screams.

"Oh, Bella, what are you doing here?"

I saw the old woman glaring at the old doctor, and said in a reproachful tone: "You must have hurt little Luga, really, you have a bad temper at such an age, no wonder no one in the village is looking for you to see a doctor now!" ”

"Enough, you old lady who can't even take a soup spoon!" Old Doctor Bella was angry at this time, and in the face of his wife's reproach, he did not hesitate to fight back: "This little bastard doesn't even know me now, I now suspect that there must be something wrong with his head, otherwise let him play stupid like this, then who should he blame for stealing my herb money when he was a child?" ”

"Hey, hey, hey!"

Now I wasn't very happy, and I thought, hey, this old guy, I'm a man from the yang world, and I still stayed in your netherworld, could it be that my soul in the underworld was reincarnated and didn't tell them, and now when I die, I'm back? It doesn't count how many years it has been, for this little money, as for it? I'm full of too many doubts about everything here, but the most important thing at the moment is to comfort this crazy old gentleman first!

"Sir, I'm really a newcomer, and I don't know what the rules of the underworld are, but don't worry, since I owe you a lot of money, then I will definitely pay it back."

"Paying it back?" Old Doctor Bella squinted his eyes and looked me up and down, probably seeing that I had nothing of value, and I heard his tone not very good: "You poor boy, when you joined the army, you told me that you were going to do a great career, but now it seems, hmph, joining the army is to cheat and eat and drink, and by the way, you will complete a set of armaments!" ”

"Old man, why are you talking so ugly!" The old woman on the side couldn't stand it anymore and opened her mouth to stop it. But this angered the old doctor even more, and he got up and knocked down the stool he had just sat on, and walked out of the cabin without looking back.

"This old immortal thing!"

The old woman was a little angry, but still whispered a few words, and seeing that the wound on my stomach was still covered with black charcoal slag, she hurriedly stepped forward and brought the copper basin that had been prepared, which was filled with water, and she took a piece of linen cloth with water, and dipped it in water to gently remove the useless debris from the wound that had been forcibly healed for me. I was still old, and my hands and feet were not as flexible as before, and I could clearly see her trembling hands pinching the wet cloth, and she had accidentally touched my wound several times, and the wound that had been burned and healed continued to transmit pain to my brain through the nerves of the skin, and I was already emaciated from the pain that felt like a whole year.

Looking at this old woman carefully, it is not difficult to see that although she is old and the years have covered up her appearance when she was young, it can still be roughly seen that this old woman was a great beauty a few decades ago, and she only hates the rush of time, gray hair, and old appearance. I am grateful to this couple, they have saved my life, I don't know how to repay this in this completely strange underworld, can they really wait for me to repay them, is it to earn some dark coins from the bank of heaven and earth? Do old couples abroad really recognize the monetary achievements of Greater China?

"Little Luga," said the old woman, as she busied herself, "do you remember that when you were a child, outside the fishing village, I and other women often saw you fishing alone by the river, but you were young and clumsy, and you could not catch a fish, but you did not give up, and the mothers-in-law around me laughed at you for being stupid." ”

It turned out that I had lived here since I was a child, and I wondered in my heart, so I asked the old woman, "I really can't remember the story that happened before, but I am curious now, and I want to know what I owe Dr. Bella?" ”

The old woman stopped what she was doing, looked up, and stared straight into my eyes, with a very serious attitude.

"A promise."

She held up a finger, "It's not much, but it's not too little!" ”
