Chapter 12: Last Words Before Death
When I rushed to Wang Jiefang's house, I heard a cry coming from inside through the door.
Isn't it, could it be that Wang Jiefang has already ......
I was so shocked that I didn't dare to think about it anymore, so I hurriedly went over and knocked on the door.
The door was opened by a slightly chubby woman, her eyes were red, she had obviously just cried, and when she saw me, she was stunned and said, "Are you?"
"I'm a friend of Jiefang, I heard that he was sick, and I came to see him." I say.
"Come in." The woman said with a gloomy expression, "Liberation is almost over......
I followed Wang Jiefang's daughter-in-law into the house, and at a glance I saw the old lady sitting on the sofa in the living room wiping her tears.
I said hello to the old lady and asked, "What about liberation?"
"In the room, but he didn't see anyone." The old lady choked up.
I walked over and knocked on the door and said, "I'm Ding Mian."
It didn't take long for the door to open, and Wang Jiefang's daughter-in-law originally wanted to follow me in, but Wang Jiefang's cold voice came from inside: "Shufen, don't come in." β
The woman was a little annoyed and wanted to say something, but I shook my head at her and motioned for everything to be left to me.
After entering the room, I faintly smelled a very pungent smell, the lights inside were dim, and I could only vaguely see that Wang Jiefang was lying on the bed weakly, with a face that looked haggard under the yellowing light, so thin that only skin and bones remained.
I gasped and said in a trembling voice: They did it?
Wang Jiefang nodded, shook his head again, with a touch of sadness in his eyes, and said: It has something to do with them, but it is also related to myself.
I frowned and said, "I didn't understand what you meant."
Wang Xie pointed to the drawer next to him, and said weakly: Brother Ding, do me a favor and open this drawer.
I did as I was told, opening the drawer.
"Is there a piece of paper in it, take it out." Wang Jiefang said.
I took out the paper and saw that there were five big words written on the top - Critical Illness Notice.
Name: Wang Jiefang
Gender: Male
Age: 37 years old
Case number: 176950
Diagnosis: tuberculosis, advanced ......
Seeing this, my head suddenly "buzzed" and became blank.
Wang Jiefang said with a smile: "The fortune teller at your door does have two brushes, at that time he said that my hair is dry and erect, and my nose is red, my eyebrows are red, the roots of the mountain are sunken, my lips are purple, and my main lungs are tuberculosis, and I will definitely die in three days. β
"You must be strange, although he counted me suffering from tuberculosis, I have already lived for three days?"
"Actually, I should have died...... It was those five guys who lent me their lives so that I could survive until now. β
What the?
I was surprised: "Five ghosts, are you willing to lend you your longevity?" β
Wang Jiefang sneered and said: Why, do you think they are very kind? Wrong, they lend me their lives just to let me win more money, and the more money I win, the heavier the cause and effect, and the more benefits they will get at that time.
"If it weren't for these five brutes hurting my family, I would have forcibly cut off contact with them in a fit of rage, and maybe they would have let me live another month or two."
Speaking of this, Wang Jiefang covered his mouth, coughed heavily, and spread his hands out, all covered in blood.
Although Wang Jiefang has done a lot of bad things before, looking at his miserable appearance at this moment, I still feel a little uncomfortable in my heart.
"When this disease was detected, it was already in an advanced stage, and I knew that I would definitely die, so I wanted to do something, something slightly meaningful...... Wang Jiefang smiled.
"Gambling is also meaningful?" I frowned.
Wang Jiefang raised his head, glanced at me, and said with a smile: "I know that you Ding Mian have looked down on me from beginning to end, even if I put the five million in front of you, you still think I am a heinous scumbag...... Yes, I'm indeed a scumbag, but no matter how scummy I am, I can't do anything like killing my wife or beating my mother. β
"Those five brutes forced me to do nothing, so I decided to die with them!"
Speaking of this, a touch of anger flashed in Wang Jiefang's eyes, and the whole person's sick momentum seemed to disappear and became fierce.
Then, Wang Jiefang told me everything.
He said that his original plan was really to make a fortune and then stop it.
However, who would have thought that these five imps were very "greedy", and kept forcing him to keep gambling - otherwise, they would have to deal with his mother and wife.
Wang Jiefang had no choice but to gamble every day, even if he won more money, the little ghost was not satisfied.
Sometimes Wang Jiefang will also resist, but the result of the rebellion is either tortured by the five little ghosts, or attached to him, threatening his family, and even using his hands.
In a place like a casino, there are back-and-forth wins to comply with the rules, and if you continue to win in a row, you are very likely to be killed.
There are a total of two casinos in Xishui Town, and in just a few days, Wang Jiefang won tens of millions of yuan from these two casinos, how can this not make people jealous?
The last time he went to the casino, Wang Jiefang killed and won several millions, and several bigwigs in the casino couldn't sit still, suspecting that Wang Jiefang might be out of the house, and asked his subordinates to press Wang Jiefang to the ground and search him.
After searching all over the place, there was no evidence, but the five "Five Ghost Fortune Charms" that he carried with him were found.
Among these bigwigs, one of them seems to be a "pedestrian who knows pedestrians", and he looked out of the doorway, saying that Wang Jiefang's five talismans are called the Five Ghost Fortune Talismans, and they brought them with them and sucked away their fortune, no wonder they will lose every time they gamble.
When these bigwigs heard that, they shouted angrily and wanted to stomp Wang Jiefang's hand.
The knowledgeable big guy persuaded: "There's no need to chop your hands, he is not a good man after all, at most he is playing some side ways - but this kind of object, unlike Pixiu Jade, this is a yin thing, a bit of cheating, I suggest, let him spit out all the money he won tonight, and then ban him from entering the casino, so it's about the same." β
When the bigwigs heard this, they all agreed.
So, Wang Jiefang won more than 10 million that night, not to mention all of them, and since then he has also been included in the casino blacklist.
Wang Jiefang thought that after this incident, the five little ghosts would be able to let him go, but they didn't expect that they asked Wang Jiefang to leave Xishui Town immediately and go somewhere else to continue gambling.
Wang Jiefang said nothing this time and didn't agree.
He knew very well that if he kept winning like this, sooner or later something would happen, either someone would chop off his hand or be hacked to death by the people in the casino.
He refused, but the five little ghosts would not give up, so they attached themselves to him, beat his mother, and played with his wife.
Wang Jiefang was furious, and finally under the guidance of a master, he forcibly cut off the connection with the five little ghosts, and therefore the "borrowed" life was returned to him, and his life was not long in coming.
Hearing this, I was a little curious, and asked Wang Jiefang, who is the master who pointed you out?
"I'll tell you later, I still have a very important matter that I need your help with." Wang Jiefang said breathlessly, his face becoming more and more ugly, "Ding Mian, have you seen the box on the table?" β
I turned my head and said, "See, what?" β
"Open." He said.
I walked over and opened the box.
Inside, there are a lot of bills.
Wang Jiefang smiled bitterly: "This is the five million you didn't ask for last time, I thought at first, I had a terminal illness anyway, and sooner or later I would die, it was better to make a lot of money before I died, and then leave a huge amount of money to my mother and wife - but seeing your performance last time, I know that I am afraid that this money cannot be given to them, otherwise it will harm them." β
I nodded and said, "That's right, this is karma money, and the relatives around you, as well as the people who are connected with this money, once you use this money, you will definitely suffer." β
"Then if it is not my relatives, and someone who has nothing to do with this money, takes this money, will something happen?" Wang Jiefang said.
"No, it won't." I say.
"Are you sure?" Wang Jiefang said.
"Sure." I say.
I'm a little curious, why did Wang Jiefang suddenly ask this?
Wang Jiefang, who was lying on the bed, showed a smile and said: Then I will be relieved.
"To tell you the truth, I once did a business in a debt collection company, an old man in his forties who picked up rags, because he was cheated out of money by a friend, resulting in a huge loan - and I was responsible for looking for this old man to collect debts, going to his house every day to smash the door, cursing, throwing some snakes, insects, rats and ants into it, and calling people to tease her daughter who is in college."
"Under the long-term torture, this old man went crazy, ran to the road, and was hit by a car and died - I was the company's gold medal debt collector at the time, and I was determined to get the money back, so I went to the school gate of the old man's daughter with Huang Mao every day, and harassed her when I came out, and made a banner with a letter that I owed debts to repay the money, which was justified."
"That girl was forced to break down, and finally under our coercion and temptation, she went to a nightclub to sell herself to pay off her father's debtsβalas, poor a young girl, who was ruined by a few of us scum."
Wang Jiefang said bitterly, a line of tears slowly flowed down, and his expression was full of remorse.
"You guys are really scumbags, if you weren't dying, I would definitely beat you up." I said coldly.
"Yes, that's why I asked you, if this money is given to a person who has no connection, she should be fine, right?" Wang Jiefang said.
I was stunned and said, "You're going to give this money to that girl?" β
"Yes, in my life, the most sorry thing is her, this incident can be regarded as a trivial compensation for her." Wang Jiefang sighed and said.
I nodded, thinking to myself that your Wang Jiefang had not completely lost his conscience.
It's a pity that the girl's dead father, who lost his virginity, can never get back......
Wang Jiefang said: "Ding Mian, the girl's address, I have already sent you your mobile phone, I hope you can do this last thing for me - in this way, after I and the five beasts die together, I can also go with peace of mind." β
I couldn't help but ask him, how do you plan to die with the five ghosts?
Just tear off the talisman, and the five ghosts will not disappear.
"Hey, didn't you notice that there was a smell in the room when you came in?" Wang Jiefang showed a sly smile.
Smell?
When he said that, I really smelled it, it seemed to smell gasoline!
"Wang Jiefang, do you want to ......" I was taken aback and instantly understood.
"I've just called the fire truck, and I'll be there in a few minutes." Wang Jiefang said with a smile.
I suddenly didn't know what to say.
Wang Jiefang's sins are of course monstrous, but his repentance at this moment moved me again.
Is it true that people are dying and their words are good, or is he Wang Jiefang really beginning to introspect?
"By the way, you haven't told me yet, how do you know so many things? And the master who instructed you to cut off the connection between the five ghosts, who is sacred? "I said busily.
"If you don't say it, I almost forgot about ......it," Wang Jiefang coughed dryly twice, and coughed up a little blood, "Actually, I don't know the true identity of this person, but I have a feeling that he may want to harm you." β
"Hurt me?"
My mouth opened wide.
"That's right, he'......"
Wang Jiefang suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong? You mean! "I'm in a hurry.
Wang Jiefang didn't say anything, his throat "gurgled", swallowed his saliva, his eyes widened, staring in a certain direction behind me full of fear.
I suddenly realized something, followed his gaze, and looked that way.
I saw a tall black figure standing outside the window......
