Chapter 513: Drinking wine and talking about mulberry and hemp

Views:

Treatment and recovery take time. In this regard, Zhou Ze is actually okay, after all, he has experience.

In the past, I remember it was the time when I had a conflict with Lady in Green.

I fell from the roof and landed in the garbage dump below. The little monkey called out to a bunch of wild cats and dogs and dragged them into its den. From that moment on, it was like I had opened the door to a new world.

I also gradually began to accept the fact that there was another person living inside me, and, strictly speaking,

He Zhou Ze,

Just a janitor.

Thanks to him, after several rounds of tempering, although this body is not as perverted as a real zombie, such as Yingying and the little boy, who cannot be chewed or torn apart, the potential that has been stimulated is still much stronger than that of ordinary people.

On the third day after being hospitalized, Zhou Ze was able to put on normal clothes, smoke a cigarette in the small pavilion downstairs of the hospital, and relax.

Lawyer An did suffer some pain and torment. The effects of the food poisoning were indeed almost over, but he was discovered to have gallstones.

Originally, Lawyer An wanted to return to Tongcheng as soon as possible to find the little black girl, but later news came from Lao Zhang that the person had been found.

The old Taoist carried the girl on his back and went to a plantation to pick red spider lily fruits. The little black girl's legs could not move, so the old Taoist carried her on his back. As a result, while picking the fruits, he was confused by the things inside.

Lao Zhang found the car through the surveillance video, and then found the little monkey on the edge of the field next to the car. Under the guidance of the little monkey, he entered the garden and carried both the old Taoist and the little black girl out.

This is just a small episode.

A thrilling episode.

The little black girl has found a place to stay, and the red spider lily has also found a place to stay.

At Zhou Ze's suggestion, Lawyer An simply had a gallstone surgery in this hospital. It was a minor operation and the problem was not very serious.

However, Zhou Ze was a little confused. Could it be that Lawyer An drank too much expired coffee and got sick

With a cigarette in his mouth,

Watching the people coming and going,

actually,

There are still quite a few patients in this hospital, but they are all minor cases. From a doctor's point of view, there is no challenge and not much sense of professional achievement.

The overall feeling of this hospital is also lifeless, which is very similar to this small county town.

The young people, the smart people who can leave, have all left, and there are fewer people left.

This is a microcosm of the entire China now. Sometimes Zhou Ze also thinks that when he was in school, he always talked about the period just after the reform or the 1990s, which were times of waves and excitement.

But in reality,

If we look at it from the perspective of ordinary people,

You may not realize where you are now, but you are among the waves.

Boss Zhou is neither a thinker nor a philosopher. He is simply lazy and has little to do, so he has plenty of free time to daydream.

There is another reason.

The nurses in this hospital are generally old, with only a few young ones, but they are all very flat.

After a man stops having those kinds of fantasies, his mental state will suddenly improve.

Especially when smoking afterwards, it seems as if fame, fortune, worldliness, workplace, etc., all become insignificant.

He threw away the cigarette butt and stepped on it.

The little zombie sitting diagonally in front of Zhou Ze turned around.

Silently watching Zhou Ze take out another cigarette and light it up.

Then he put his head back again.

Zhou Ze was sitting in the pavilion.

He was sitting on the steps of the pavilion.

From a distance, they looked like a father and son, but their attire was a bit shabby and mismatched.

The way my father holds a cigarette in his mouth makes him look like a typical lazy man.

I don’t know how many people who passed by and saw this scene felt sorry in their hearts for such a cute child, how could he have such a father.

She didn't change her clothes. Her original clothes were a little torn, so she just washed them and wore them.

Boss Zhou was used to being poor, and he knew that the clothes Yingying bought for him were very expensive, so it was no big deal if they were just a little torn or a little wrinkled.

The little boy's clothes could not be washed and worn again because they were too badly torn. Zhou Ze asked Yingying to buy a set of children's clothes from the clothing stall in front of the hospital.

A little bit rustic, a little bit silly,

The little boy just wore it.

This child is not picky.

Zhou Ze was very satisfied.

"Hey!"

Lawyer An also came down.

He seemed to be in good spirits having just completed the operation.

The hospital gown was a bit too big, and Lawyer An had lost a lot of weight recently. The thick clothes fluttered in the afternoon breeze, like a scarecrow placed by a farmer in the field to scare away crows.

But the scarecrow had no intention of being a scarecrow. Zhou Ze knew that he had been having a hot affair with a female director of a hospital recently. According to An Caoren's theory, he didn't plan to eat, but it was okay to chat with someone who had experienced it to relieve his fatigue.

Lao An is just this kind of person. He heard from Feng Si'er that he had a woman he liked before, and he loved her deeply, the kind of love that even Feng Si didn't want her.

But Lawyer An's image does not fit the setting of a romantic hero at all.

I ate, drank, and had fun, and I didn't feel any guilt, as if I could really let go of it.

But the little kid sitting on the steps in front of him,

The melancholy and sadness,

Zhou Ze wanted to kick him several times.

Lawyer An sat in the pavilion. Yingying was not there, as she had gone out to buy vegetables. He was going to cook chicken soup in the evening.

Lawyer An took the cigarette from Zhou Ze and lit it. He couldn't say that he loved this body very much. In fact, he just took things as they came.

This is indeed the case.

Most young people and even middle-aged people in this world do not know how to take care of their bodies.

You can no longer expect a person to value a second-hand body.

They had only smoked half of their cigarettes.

A middle-aged man in a hospital gown ran out of the pavilion, holding an aluminum pot on his head, shouting and yelling.

After a while, several people came out, who seemed to be his family members, and dragged him back.

"He has some brain problems and came to the hospital for appendicitis surgery," said Lawyer An.

"It seems your lover talked to you quite a lot."

"We just chatted and touched hands, we didn't do anything else." Lawyer An shook his head and blew out a smoke ring.

"She doesn't want to?"

"I don't want to."

Lawyer An smiled and added, "Recuperate your energy."

After a while,

The middle-aged man with the aluminum pot on his head came over again and scolded Zhou Ze and others who were sitting in the pavilion, as if he was a leader speaking. Oh no, he was more stylish than the leader, like a god educating the people.

Then,

His family chased him out again and this time tied him up with a rope.

"He got addicted to qigong and went crazy. He has been crazy ever since." Lawyer An dropped his cigarette butt on the ground and sighed, "Oh, by the way, you were still young at that time, so you probably didn't know."

Lawyer An is indeed a few decades older than Zhou Ze.

"At that time, the whole country was in a qigong craze, and qigong masters could be admitted to the halls of higher learning, and even become guests of honor in government offices.

The common people, peddlers, and high-ranking officials all believe this. Some people did not believe it at first, but could not resist the official propaganda and began to believe it.

It’s promoted on TV and in newspapers all day long.

Hey, I remember that there were a lot of fantasy novels in your bookstore. I flipped through them when I had nothing to do. In fact, the society at that time was even more fantastic than what was described in fantasy novels. "

Zhou Ze had not experienced that era, but he knew about the aluminum pot on the head. It seemed that he was practicing some kind of qigong and that wearing the aluminum pot could receive information from aliens.

Zhou Ze had seen a photo before.

In the photo, there is a lobby full of people sitting.

Everyone practiced qigong together with aluminum pots on their heads.

It is hard to imagine that this would happen in the 1990s, that people of that era would suddenly become so ignorant.

"Actually, they are almost the same. They are really almost the same." Lawyer An didn't know what he was thinking about. He suddenly felt emotional and reached out to Zhou Ze for a cigarette. Zhou Ze threw the empty cigarette box on the ground.

Lawyer An looked at the little boy and said, "Kid, go buy a pack of cigarettes."

The little boy glanced at Lawyer An with a cold look in his eyes.

Lawyer An pursed his lips.

Zhou Ze took the money out of his wallet and handed it to him, "Soft middle."

The little boy took the money and went.

"whispering sound."

Lawyer An curled his lips.

Then, Lawyer An pointed to his head and said, "Do you think no one understood that this was just a lie? Do you think everyone was a fool

Especially since the United States landed on the moon decades earlier, why does everyone still believe in qigong?"

Zhou Ze shook his head.

“In fact, it is the smart people who are unwilling to speak out, nor dare to speak out, because whoever speaks out will be swept away by the torrent;

The biggest problem with smart people is that they value their lives.

The greatest advantage of smart people is that they know when to make fools of themselves.

actually,

It is very similar to the current situation in hell. Many people actually know about the problems in the underworld. The ghost officials below are beginning to feel uneasy. Some are looking for backers, while others are taking private jobs.

But no one dared to say it, and no one dared to shout it out. Everyone stayed in this tall building, but everyone was waiting to see when this tall building would collapse.

On the day of the collapse, those living on the top floor with a garden balcony could fly away by helicopter.

Most people in the building were going to die, but everyone chose to wait for death, not wanting to be the one thrown out of the window and killed before the building collapsed. "

"No one?" Zhou Ze was a little curious.

"Yes." Lawyer An shook his head. Today, he talked a lot and even revealed some of the past that he was reluctant to talk about before. "At the beginning, I was helping them pass the message, and that's when the trouble happened."

Lawyer An pursed his lips.

"The underworld has order, but the law of death is ruthless."

Standing up and twisting his waist, Lawyer An sighed.

“I really like this sentence.”

The little boy is back.

He had a cigarette and some change in his hand.

Zhou Ze opened the cigarette, took out one and gave it to Lawyer An, and took one himself.

Two people lit it one by one.

I took a puff.

immediately,

Put down the cigarette, look at each other,

They threw the cigarettes in their hands to the ground.

The little boy saw it and pouted.

I bought fake cigarettes.

"I'm going to talk to him about it?" The little boy picked up the cigarette that Zhou Ze threw on the ground.

Zhou Ze taught him that he should not use violence often and should learn to restrain himself.

When something happens,

Be reasonable.

"Yeah." Zhou Ze nodded, looking pleased that his son was teachable.

The little boy nodded and prepared to go.

"Wait a minute." Zhou Ze shouted.

"Um?"

The little boy stopped.

"After you've explained the truth, break one of his legs."
