In order to take care of Uncle Li, I closed the butcher shop and took him to the big hospital in the county for treatment.

But after looking around, Uncle Li's condition did not improve, but worsened.

The hospital couldn't find anything wrong, and Uncle Li's condition became worse and worse.

At night, lying on the bed in the small hotel, I looked at Uncle Li's painful appearance, and tears wet the pillow.

I hated my incompetence, and I learned the whole broken book, but I couldn't even protect Uncle Li.

Xu it was my sobbing that woke up Uncle Li, he rolled over and said to me.

"Chen Xian, don't cry, men don't flick when they have tears."

"We'll go home tomorrow and don't look at it!"

"Nope! Uncle Li, there must be a hospital that can cure you. I wiped away my tears and said stubbornly.

Uncle Li sighed, sat up slowly, shook his head and said, "It's useless, I'm not sick, it's retribution!" ”

"I've killed countless beings in my life, and I've accumulated too many karma, which God wants to take me in, and you can't save it!"

"I don't believe it! There must be a way, there must be one! "I'm not willing to do that.

Uncle Li patted me on the shoulder and said, "Don't be stubborn, Chen Xian." ”

"In God's eyes, people like me are full of sins and unforgivable."

"Perhaps, the only thing I have done right in my life is to save you."

"As long as you can live well and survive the eighteen-year-old catastrophe, I will really leave, and I will definitely leave with a smile."

"Don't let me down!"

I nodded heavily, unable to speak again.

After a while, Uncle Li turned over and got out of bed, saying that he was going outside to get some air.

Before leaving, he poured me a glass of water and put it on the bedside.

"Remember to drink a glass of water before going to bed."

This is what Uncle Li has said to me the most since I was a child.

He said that I am a living dead and lack all five elements.

One of them must be added at night before going to bed.

Otherwise, it is very easy to attract bad luck.

As the saying goes, form complements form, and among the five elements, hydration is the simplest.

This can be regarded as a habit that Uncle Li has helped me cultivate since I was a child.

But tonight was different, my heart was in turmoil, my mind was full of Uncle Li's affairs, I was not sleepy, lying on the bed, closing my eyes in a daze.

I don't know how long later, I heard a violent cough coming from the hallway of the hotel.

I was worried that Uncle Li was coughing up blood again, so I hurriedly got out of bed and wanted to call him back.

But just as I reached the door, a familiar voice came from the hallway.

"You tuberculosis, whisper, what if you wake that kid up?"

Hearing this, I was stunned on the spot!

There is no other reason, just because the person who said this sentence is Uncle Li!

His voice was natural, completely devoid of his previous hoarse pathology.

"Harm! Didn't you already feed him water? ”

"He's sleeping soundly now, what's there to be afraid of, cough ......"

Without saying a word, the man who Uncle Li called a tuberculosis ghost coughed violently again.

"Say it! What the hell are you looking for me for? Uncle Li's tone was full of disgust.

The tuberculosis ghost said, "It's not that I'm looking for you, it's the Wang family." ”

"They can't wait, you have to bring people over within three days!"

"Three days? What happened? Didn't you say that you would wait until he was eighteen years old? ”

"I don't know about this, anyway, the Wang family said that within three days, he must arrive!"

The corridor was quiet for a long time before Uncle Li spoke: "Okay, I know." ”

The sound fell, followed by footsteps.

I quickly retreated to the bed, closed my eyes and pretended to sleep.

Uncle Li pushed the door and walked in, and said suddenly.

"Did you hear what you just said?"

There was no one else in the room, and Uncle Li was obviously asking me when he said this.

In an instant, my whole heart hung in my throat.

I was almost subconsciously about to respond.

Fortunately, reason prevailed over fear, and I didn't say yes.

After a short silence, Uncle Li took two steps forward and said again.

"Don't pretend, I know you're awake."

Uncle Li walked to my bedside and stopped, I was so nervous that I almost stopped breathing.

Fortunately, the darkness masked some of my movements, and Uncle Li didn't notice my abnormality.

A moment later, a sigh came, and Uncle Li seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

He went back to his bed and lay down, and with the faint sound of snoring, my hanging heart was slightly lowered.

Uncle Li actually didn't find out that I was eavesdropping, and the two questions just now were just his temptation to me.

Similarly, Uncle Li is not sick, he is pretending to be sick, but why should he do this?

Could it be that it has something to do with the Wang family in the mouth of the tuberculosis ghost just now?

I thought that within three days, Uncle Li would send me to the Wang family.

My heart was pounding uncontrollably!

I didn't sleep all night, and the next day, I pretended to have just woken up.

Uncle Li has changed back to that sick state.

I helped him to check out and leave, and when I arrived at the station, I took the first shuttle back to the village.

I was a little sleepy, so at first, I didn't notice anything unusual.

It wasn't until after the vehicle departed that I realized that there were only two passengers on this morning rush hour bus, Uncle Li and me.

"Master, no one is in the car in the morning?" I asked the driver in my native dialect.

At first, the driver didn't answer, so I asked again in Mandarin.

This time he understood: "There will be someone on the way later." ”

The shuttle bus driver who drives this line is generally a local and can speak his hometown, but this driver is obviously not!

For some reason, it may have been last night's incident that made me a little bit of a soldier.

After feeling the driver's abnormality, I pulled Uncle Li and wanted to get out of the car.

Uncle Li was resting with his eyes closed, and he told me to sit down and not make a mess for the driver.

"I'll have something to tell you when I get home!"

When I look at Uncle Li's appearance, I have a feeling of explaining what happened later.

"Uncle, you have to go home and talk about something." I asked.

"It's related to the Wang family." Uncle Li closed his eyes and said.

"Chen Xian, I know, you heard everything last night."

I didn't speak, I looked at Uncle Li in a daze, and Uncle Li continued.

"Within three days, you must go to Wang's house and fulfill a promise for me, and that matter is your life and death."

"I can't remember the specific content, since I was born with this strange disease, my memory is declining day by day."

"Fortunately, I wrote a letter back then, and I put it in the house."

"When you go back, find it out, and you'll understand after reading it."

Uncle Li has said this, and if I pretend to be confused, I will seem a little ignorant.

"Uncle, how did you know about last night?" I asked curiously.

"You forgot to drink that glass of water I gave you."

Suddenly, Uncle Li said again: "You haven't slept all night, have you?" ”

"Lie down and rest for a while, and I'll call you when it's time."

"Hmm." I nodded.

The words have been spoken, and Uncle Li has no intention of hiding it from me.

I sat back in my chair, intending to take a nap.

Unexpectedly, halfway through, there was a sudden violent braking.

In a trance, I was thrown to the ground.

Before I could react, seven or eight people were crowded under the car.

These people are armed with sticks, black clothes and black pants, and they don't look good.

They smashed the car as soon as they got into the car, and the driver was knocked down in a pool of blood by two sticks.

I was also trampled on the ground with my feet and couldn't move.

I saw two people walking out with Uncle Li on their feet.

I shouted excitedly, "Let go of Uncle Li!" ”

As soon as the words fell, two sticks fell on my back, and it hurt hotly.

"Chen Xian! Leave me alone! Protect yourself. Uncle Li shouted at me.

I struggled desperately, anger welling up in my heart, and I jerked the person who stepped on me away.

But as soon as I got up, I was hit hard in the abdomen.

Then, sticks rained down on me.

Even though I have been killing pigs all year round, I am strong and strong.

But after all, two fists are hard to beat four hands.

Once again, I was defeated.

Last time, it was in elementary school.

But the difference is that last time, there was Uncle Li standing behind me.

And this time, I couldn't stand behind Uncle Li and protect him.

I was knocked to the ground, a stick fell on my head, and I fell unconscious on the spot.
