Chapter 44: Conscience Is Worth a Few Cents
About morality and conscience, insert a real story.
When I was in middle school, there was a classmate in my class, who belonged to the kind of mixed society among students, who was brave and ruthless among students, bullying the weak and afraid of the hard.
Together with the teacher, he was stunned by three points.
Once in class, the teacher felt that the world was declining, and improvised a few words of emotion, saying that people nowadays don't have a conscience.
I don't know which sentence touched his nerves, and he suddenly said loudly: "How many cents is conscience worth?" β
This statement was very impressive at the time.
The teacher said that people's hearts can be measured by money?
He said that the human heart is not worth anything at all.
The teacher was so angry that he said, "The shaft can't be taught!" β
He couldn't understand it, and he couldn't talk about it, and he felt like he had suffered a loss.
One day, after studying at night, I found a few gangsters and blocked the teacher in a small alley and put a sack.
Of course, this is only heard.
Then he dropped out of school to join the army, and by the time I was in college, he was demobilized.
returned to his hometown and continued to show off his might and bully men and women.
Then one day, suddenly, the news came that he had been killed.
The news itself certainly does not come as a surprise.
But the details are creepy.
Because his body had been dead for some time when it was found in the suburbs.
The body was intact, but the chest was torn open.
His heart was bitten off by something Qigan - his heart was lost.
That case has not yet been solved.
At that time, the family had no choice but to ask the Taoist priest to pinch the heart made of noodles, put it in the cavity and bury it with others.
For a while, rumors spread in the society.
Some people say that his heart was cut off by a criminal gang and resold for organs.
Some people say that they were eaten by wild dogs.
I didn't have much in touch with him when I was in school.
So I listened to it as a story, and I didn't pay much attention to it.
But on the night of his first seven, I was in another city.
He actually broke into my dreams - I was experiencing the nourishment of a relationship, my mental health was sunny, I rarely dreamed, and I especially didn't have nightmares.
But that day he appeared in my dream without warning.
I still remember that dream vividly.
He was standing in a black-and-white photograph, looking for something with his head down.
An invisible giant force kept sucking the reluctant me into him, as if the camera was slowly zooming in.
When he was pulled to him, he raised his gray face faintly, held a white heart, glared at me from the corner of his empty eye, and suddenly asked, "How many cents is this heart worth?" β
That night I woke up from my dream, and I had a feeling of deep thought.
He was actually said by himself,ββ his heart was indeed not worth a few cents.
I have never told anyone about this strange thing, because it is extremely unlucky to dream of a dead person opening his mouth.
But I feel a lot about this cause and effect, at least I think it's cause and effect.
Man, there are many things you can not believe, but don't be ignorant of awe.
Again, there is a god three feet above his head.
Let's get down to business.
The unscrupulous developer found some gods and villains out of nowhere.
continues the unfinished career of Tian Xi'e's autumn melon egg son.
Some people wake up and find themselves sleeping in the cemetery, and some people come back in the middle of the night and look at the building in front of them, but they can't walk in.
Weird voices, scary grimaces, a deck chair that can swing by itself.
Looking at the rising property prices, these people are doing everything they can.
Tian Xi'e's old arms and legs were physically and mentally exhausted by their tossing.
I didn't know when I couldn't stand this anger, so I kicked my legs and lay down.
I simply made a coffin for myself early and put it in the basement.
can't wait for Chen Changgui, this dilapidated building is her home.
Li Chenggang was originally a police officer in their area, and the old men and old ladies looked for him whenever there was any trouble, and he never shirked it.
A deep relationship has been built back and forth.
A few days ago, Li Chenggang came to the door and said that a friend wanted to settle here temporarily.
It happened that an old man was going to go to another place to coax his grandson, and it would take a year and a half to come back, so he rented his house to Li Chenggang.
Who thought that Li Chenggang didn't mention the "haunting" here to Ren Zhe.
Last night, Tian Xi'e vaguely saw two sneaky figures going upstairs.
I know that those people have come again to do evil.
Her home is on the first floor, so she naturally takes on the duty of sentry.
After notifying the old neighbor on the phone.
She suddenly thought of the new couple.
Kindly ran up to remind you.
I didn't open the door after a few calls.
Thinking that young people are too vigilant now, they have to give up and go home first.
After a while, the power in the house was cut off, and she was used to it.
As soon as I took out the candle from the drawer and lit it, I heard a rush of footsteps in the hallway.
At this time, she was also weak and did not dare to go out.
After a while, she heard the sound of wood tapping through the door, and walked to the basement.
She was a little anxious.
The bad embryos usually only work upstairs and rarely go to the basement.
I don't know what they're going to do this time.
She was anxious that her longevity room was still there, and she was afraid that they would destroy it.
After a struggle in her heart, she took a rolling pin and pointed her foot to the basement.
Then I saw a person nestled next to her longevity room, with his back to her and a woman in his arms.
Tian Xi'e is also a kind person, although she was scared, she saw that someone was hurt, and she thought about going up to help.
As soon as he approached, the man turned his face, but it was a bloody mouth, and there were still blood droplets hanging from the corners of his mouth......
The rest is clear to everyone, so I won't go into details.
Li Yuxiu can now understand the grimace that appeared in front of the window, but she can't understand why so much blood is flowing from the water pipe.
"It's a siphon." , Ren Zhe asked Tian Xi'e.
The old man didn't know what to sayβshe hadn't heard the word.
But Ren Zhe had already thought that it was not difficult to make the faucet spur blood.
All those guys had to do was put a basin of blood on the roof or some height, and then connected it to the water pipe with a pipe.
No matter who upstairs turns on the water pipe, the negative pressure created by the water flow will draw blood into the water pipe and out of the tap.
It's a very simple principle, and it doesn't take much blood.
"What about the screams?" , Ren Zhe suddenly thought of the screams that had appeared three times in the corridor.
Tian Xi'e squinted, "That's just a cat." β
"Haven't you even heard the sound of a cat calling spring?" , she glanced at Li Yuxiu again.
Li Yuxiu blushed and lowered her head.
"But this cat's meow is too loud, it's really scary." , Ren Zhe said.
"Maybe it's because she's been alone for too long." Tian Xi'e moved her eyes out the window and looked blankly at the wasteland in the rain.
Coming out of Tian Xi'e's house, Li Yuxiu held Ren Zhe tightly.
"I can't imagine how she has lived alone for so many years in this environment."
"You think it's bad here, too." Ren Zhe asked.
"Hmm", Li Yuxiu nodded silently.
"Maybe she doesn't think so." Ren Zhe said with difficulty while going up the stairs, "Here is her home, her neighbors, her decades of joys, sorrows, and sorrows, and her decades of memories." The most important thing is that there is still sustenance in her heart. She has been waiting for her man, and this should be the greatest courage she can hold on. β
"yes, that's a pity. For most of a woman's life, she survives by herself. β
Li Yuxiu suddenly stopped, stared at Ren Zhe and asked, "If I disappear one day, will you go to me?" Or do you wait like she did? β
Ren Zhe glanced at her, she bit her lip, as if it would take her a lot of courage to say this.
"I choose C", Ren Zhe was silent for a moment and said with a smile.
"What's C?" , Li Yuxiu asked.
"I won't tell you." , Ren Zhe smiled mysteriously and continued to walk forward.
Behind him, Li Yuxiu's face turned red and gradually became gloomy.
In fact, Ren Zhe's answer is: I will neither look for you, nor wait for you, because I will never lose you.
But Li Yuxiu's answer is: I will neither look for it, nor will I wait.
Woman, you should not have asked such a question, from the moment he decides to sacrifice himself to save you between life and death, you should know that he has engraved you in his soul.
