Chapter 104: The Man Who Committed Suicide
Zhang Xiaoqiang was treated in the hospital for three days, but there was no improvement, and the doctor had to declare that he was powerless, and recommended other treatments, including but not limited to earthwork, home remedies, test prescriptions, asking the gods, exorcism, and demon suppression. The doctor was a scientist, and in the face of the cruel truth, he had to believe in some supernatural things. Nevertheless, he still believes that standardized scientific treatment is primary, and other measures are secondary and adjunctive.
Hu Kehao took Zhang Xiaoqiang back to the demolition house to exorcise evil spirits and cure diseases, if he was taken back to the dormitory of U City University of Technology, it would have an adverse effect, and if it was published on the Internet, it would definitely cause an uproar. Hu Kehao knew that the Hongdao master in his hometown was profound, and he had the hand to exorcise evil spirits and subdue demons, but far water could not quench his thirst, but fortunately, Master Liu, who had dinner with them that night, would exorcise evil spirits.
When Master Liu was having dinner that night, when he saw Zhang Xiaoqiang's symptoms, he knew that he had fallen into evil. They didn't believe him, so they had to take him to the hospital, but in vain they took him back. Master Liu bought the incense wax paper money, and pasted talismans in the room where Zhang Xiaoqiang slept, and then danced like a rock singer. Hu Kehao stood outside the room and saw puffs of black gas wafting out with cigarettes. After Master Liu finished dancing in the room, Zhang Xiaoqiang slowly woke up. If the doctor saw this, he would be incredible, and even re-examine the level of his practice over the years.
Master Liu opened the door, handed Hu Kehao a piece of talisman paper, and said, "You follow me, don't look back, and burn it when you reach your destination." ”
Chef Liu inserted a pair of incense wax on the ground every few steps, which continued until a fork in the road. Master Liu muttered a few words and instructed Hu Kehao to burn the talisman paper.
Occasionally, vehicles pass by on the side of the highway, and the driver sees the dotted wax on the road, feels bad luck, and steps on the accelerator to speed away. After a while, the rune paper burned out, and smoke drifted into the air. Master Liu said, "Good luck! Succeed with flying colors! I only have this level, whether Zhang Xiaoqiang can be healed or not depends on his creation! If it still doesn't work, you have to be smart! ”
"Thank you so much Master Liu! I didn't expect you to be a master hidden in the folk! Hu Kehao said.
"Our industry is becoming more and more marketable! No one is believing in this anymore! When we die of old age, these crooked things will disappear! I hope that in the future, the development of science and technology and medicine will be able to treat all intractable diseases! Master Liu sighed.
Hu Kehao still believes in these because he bumped into evil when he was a child and asked a master to clean up. Now, due to work reasons, he does not dare to engage in these activities openly, so he has to quietly carry out them in the demolition house.
Hu Kehao looked at the incense wax burning on the road, the firelight swaying in the breeze, and his heart was mixed. On the way back, Hu Kehao looked up and saw that there was still a family in the demolition building with lights on. As far as he knew, only Tang Ao and the four of them lived in two houses temporarily in the demolition building. The house has been cut off from water, electricity, and gas, and everything has to be prepared by itself. With such poor living conditions, who lives in a third house?
The light was on the sixth floor, Hu Kehao went back to visit Zhang Xiaoqiang out of curiosity, his complexion was much better, and then quietly came to the security door on the sixth floor, and heard two people arguing in the room.
"I've been pouring mold for eight lifetimes, marrying such a poor ghost as you! Loser! When you get married, you have to come out to work to pay off your debts! The woman scolded.
"Can I be blamed for this? Blame your mother! Before we got married, she had to ask for a generous bride price! It's ruined my family! The man said.
It turns out that both men and women have stumbled through the years and become older unmarried young people. After being introduced to each other, they have to talk about marriage. The woman's parents asked the man to give a bride price of more than 100,000 yuan before agreeing to the marriage. The woman also has an unmarried brother, and the woman's request for the bride price is actually for her brother's marriage, and the woman's family has no money, so she asks the man to pay the bride price money, and then transfers the payment to the woman's brother's target family. This sounds ridiculous, and it is said that many poor families do this, which is a bit like a copy of the ancient phenomenon of "changing relatives".
The man's family had no money, so he had to borrow money everywhere, and finally scraped together enough money for the bride price. Although the man was unwilling, he thought that the woman's younger brother was going to get married, and he also expressed his understanding to a certain extent. When men and women get married, this debt naturally falls on them, and they need to work to pay off the debt.
It is difficult to earn money, it is not easy to work, and women have suffered a lot with men and suffered a lot of white eyes. Recently, the elderly in the family fell ill, and they almost ran out of money, so they had to save on food, clothing, housing and transportation. A few days ago, their rent was due, and the landlord urged them to pay it. Their money was sent home for the old man's treatment, and they had no money on them, so they lived in the rented in-law's house for a few more days, and today they were finally kicked out. They really can't help it, and they plan to either sleep on the streets or live in bridges. As they wandered around the streets, they saw the dilapidated building waiting to be demolished and moved in unceremoniously.
"My mother has raised me for more than 20 years, what's wrong with asking your family for a bride price?" The woman continued to curse.
"I'm not saying it's wrong, this money is also for the sake of your brother's marriage. I mean, since we owe this debt, we'll pay it off slowly. Don't show me a look every day, I'm very uncomfortable. I'm going to be angry with my boss when I'm working outside, and I'm angry with you when I get home. me off and you'll be happy! ”
"You mean I'm tricky? I follow you every day in the wind and rain, what do I want? Many wives are pampered, live in villas, drive luxury cars, and I followed you into an abandoned building to be demolished! You don't feel ashamed to live in it and it's lifeless! ”
The man knows that the woman has suffered a lot after marrying him. When a woman says ugly things, he has to endure it in silence most of the time, who told him to live so poorly? The man also started his own business, or did a small business, but he was plotted by others, and he ran out of capital, so he had to work everywhere to pay off his debts, and he also had to pay for the medical expenses of the elderly in his family.
"I am now the appearance of a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water, and I can't change this situation in the short term. Do you think we can live with me! If we can't live our lives, let's divorce. While you're young, you can find a good one. "Men don't want to drag women down, and they think of divorce.
"Lady, I'm making trouble with you, not to divorce you, but to cheer you up, be flexible, and do everything you can to make more money!" The woman said.
Men have always worked hard and hard, but they just can't get rich. He didn't eat well, he didn't dress well, he only had all kinds of suffering and sorrow. He felt overwhelmed, with sick parents and children waiting to be fed. The child is a left-behind child who is raised by his parents in his hometown.
The woman was criticized by the boss for her work today, worked the night shift, and returned to the ghostly house, her stomach was rumbling with hunger, but the man slept like a corpse on the bed, without cooking, with a cold pot and a cold stove. The woman was angry, so she quarreled with the man. The man was not working well, was in a bad mood, returned home and did not cook, was reprimanded by the woman, and became even more depressed.
They ate two packets of instant noodles at night and then went to sleep in a rage. The man lay in bed and couldn't sleep, thinking of the hardships of life and the bleakness of the future, the mental strength that supported his body collapsed all at once. At one o'clock in the morning, the man got up to go to the bathroom, and suddenly saw through the disturbing world, and he jumped off the windowsill......
The next morning, the woman got up and saw that the man was gone. She exclaimed, searched everywhere, and saw footprints on the windowsill in the dust, which were the man's. The woman concluded that the man had jumped off the building, but his body was not found. When the police came, they didn't find the man's body, he seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.
