Chapter 79: He wants to commit suicide! (Fourth update!!!!!)
After being busy for three hours, when the last bit of true energy in his body was exhausted, Wang Ke collapsed onto the chair that the old man had brought from outside, feeling utterly drained.
In these three hours, he not only consumed his true energy but also exhausted his mental strength. The drowsy feeling made him dizzy and confused.
"Mr. Wang, are you okay? I just finished making the bed in the east room for you, and there's also a new quilt at home that I put on the bed. If you're tired, go rest!"
The old man looked at Wang Ke with a worried face and said with concern, holding his arm.
He could see that Wang Ke treated his old partner with all his heart and soul.
Looking at his partner's sleeping face, the old man felt both excited and heartbroken. After all these years, his partner could finally sleep well!
Wang Ke nodded slightly and allowed the old man to support him as he came to the east house. He instructed the old man not to disturb him unless it was something important, then after the old man left, he sat cross-legged to recover his depleted true energy and spiritual power.
It wasn't until noon the next day that Wang Ke recovered to his peak state. What he didn't expect was that, due to yesterday's overexertion, he felt that his cultivation had made a slight progress once again, and even his spiritual energy had increased significantly. In the space at his brow point, which was about the size of a fingernail, the milky white gas had already occupied half of it.
Full of spirit, Wang Ke walked down from the bed and looked at the warm sunlight coming in through the window, a smile spreading across his face.
His progress in one night's practice was indeed very great, if he practiced at his usual speed, it would take at least ten days or half a month to achieve the progress of last night.
He put on his shoes, stretched out his hand to open the door and walked out.
"Wang Xiaoge, you're awake!"
The old man saw Wang Ke coming out of the east house and suddenly showed a look of surprise on his face, saying loudly.
Wang Ke smiled and said: "Yes! How are Grandpa and Grandma? Was yesterday's treatment effective?"
The old man heard Wang Ke ask about this matter, and he hurriedly nodded excitedly: "It's effective, really very effective! This morning, my partner can actually sit up, although she still can't get out of bed. But after sitting up, she doesn't feel much pain in her spine either. If it were a few days ago, I wouldn't dare believe it even if you killed me!"
Wang Ke smiled slightly, and his efforts were rewarded, making him feel that yesterday's hard work was all worth it.
Wang Ke went to check on the old lady again and confirmed that her self-repair function had been activated. It was estimated that she would be fully recovered in a week, which made him let out a long sigh of relief.
For this unfortunate family, I can only do so much myself.
In the morning, while Wang Ke was resting, the old man hurried to the county market and bought a lot of good dishes. Because of Wang Ke's sake, he naturally wouldn't be stingy, and he even had an impulse in his heart to enshrine the living Bodhisattva Wang Ke who saved suffering and difficulties.
After lunch, Wang Ke didn't immediately treat the old lady, but instead moved a chair to sit outside the door of the main room, enjoying the warm sunshine. He rarely had time to relax, so he was determined to thoroughly unwind this time.
In the late afternoon, the old courtyard gate was suddenly pushed open. Wang Ke, who had been basking in the warm sunlight with his eyes closed, quickly opened them, while the old man squatting beside him, puffing on a large pipe, also stood up abruptly.
The son of a lame old man, as if every step he took was suffering from great pain, but his eyes were full of murderous intent.
"You're still alive, I'm hungry, get me something to eat."
The young man's body stiffened as he saw Wang Ke sitting in a chair staring at him.
The old man was given a sentence by his son, "Old and not dead", which made him tremble all over, painfully turned his head to look at Wang Ke, and then lowered his head again.
"It seems my words were useless!"
His eyes gleaming with cold intent, Wang Ke strode forward and kicked the young man to the ground before crouching down beside him. In a chilly tone, he said, "I've never seen anyone as despicable as you! Has your conscience been eaten by dogs? He's your own father, yet you dare to insult him? Are you even human? As the saying goes: 'Of all virtues, filial piety is the first.' Where is your filial heart? I recall hearing your father praise you before, saying how sensible and diligent you were as a child. How did you become so depraved?"
A loud slap landed on the young man's head, and Wang Ke seemed to have not scolded enough, so he continued to shout loudly: "Your mother carried you for ten months, gave birth to you, and then raised you with hardship and bitterness. Is this how you repay them? Look at those sheep in the corner of the wall! Open your big eyes and take a good look. Even when the lambs are drinking milk, they kneel down on both knees. Are you really not even as good as an animal?"
The young man raised his head stubbornly, and in those eyes, a deep-seated hatred and a hint of madness were revealed.
But Wang Ke's gaze at the young man, his body slightly condensed, because he keenly discovered that in the deepest part of the young man's eyes, there was a struggling color, and in that struggle, there was a thread of regret, a thread of pain.
What's going on?
What's going on?
Wang Ke suddenly stood up, and at this moment he felt that something was very wrong with the young man.
"You..."
Wang Ke opened his mouth, but found himself at a loss for words.
The young man struggled to get up from the ground, but because of his right leg bone fracture, plus being beaten by Wang Ke, his body that had just struggled to get up was heavily knocked down again. Then, the young man struggled to get up once more.
Time and time again, he got up, only to fall once more. After five or six attempts, the young man finally sat on the ground, his entire body trembling. His eyes were filled with a gloomy haze, and even his body seemed to emanate a cold aura.
What is this?
Wang Ke's eyes suddenly narrowed, and he felt a faintly unsettling aura emanating from the young man's body.
He has problems!
As soon as this idea flashed through Wang Ke's mind, he immediately decided to use his heterochromatic eyes to observe the young man, and he really wanted to know what had happened to the young man.
As he controlled the true energy to flow quickly into his eyes, when the colorful world appeared in front of Wang Ke, his gaze fell on the young man's body.
A wisp of gray gas lingered around the young man's temples, and even his limbs had several wisps of gray gas slowly flowing through them. What made Wang Ke feel most unbelievable was that at the spot where he had broken the young man's right leg, a ball of gray gas was constantly swirling, and Wang Ke could sense that the ball of gray gas was continuously corroding his muscles and tendons.
What is this gray gas?
Wang Ke's eyes widened in shock, staring blankly at the gray gas on the young man's body. His eyes didn't even blink once.
Bad luck?
The word involuntarily flashed into his mind.
Is the gray gas on young people's bodies really bad luck? The bad luck that can affect people's minds?
It wasn't until quite some time had passed that he finally came back to his senses, quickly turning his head to look at the old man and asking: "Old sir, do you still remember where your son went before he became like this? Was there anything unusual during that period of time?"
The old man didn't know why Wang Ke asked this, but he still tried hard to recall. After a moment, he smiled bitterly and said: "Of course I remember, the situation at that time, I remember it clearly."
"That was a summer, because it was too hot at home, so he secretly sneaked to the mountain behind the village to do his homework. When I went to find him, I found that he was actually doing his homework in a cave on the mountain. After bringing him back, he fell seriously ill the next day. After recovering from his illness, his personality had some strange changes. At first, I didn't pay attention to it, but as he entered high school, the change in his personality made me unbelievable, and I even doubted whether this was still my son?"
Wang Ke nodded silently, and through the old man's description, he felt that the change in the young man before him must have something to do with that cave. He secretly made up his mind to go to that cave for a trip.
"Right, I can absorb the spiritual energy inside the law instrument, can't I also absorb that dark energy from his body?"
As soon as this idea emerged, Wang Ke had a urge to try, hesitated for a moment and made up his mind, he should try it out for the sake of this family.
With both hands swiftly grasping the young man's shoulders, Wang Ke shouted in a low voice: "Don't move, otherwise I'll break your two arms as well."
The young man's body stiffened, and after struggling for a moment, his body finally didn't dare move again.
Wang Ke's mental strength was highly concentrated, enduring the stinging sensation brought by using his heterochromatic eyes again. As a gray gas appeared before his eyes once more, Wang Ke's heart stirred quietly:
Absorb!
As expected, the gray aura in the young man's body was drawn out by Wang Ke's intention, and it swarmed towards Wang Ke's body like a school of fish.
In an instant, Wang Ke's true energy burst out of his body, and his spiritual power wildly surged outward, tightly binding the absorbed gray aura half a foot away from his forehead.
Ten seconds later, there was no longer a trace of gloominess in the young man's body.
Wang Ke quickly severed the influx of true energy into his eyes, and after the heterochromatic eye disappeared, he rapidly rushed out of the courtyard gate, his figure like lightning as he madly sprinted towards the mountain behind the village.
The young man sitting on the ground, his gloomy eyes slowly disappeared, and even the focus of his pupils began to slowly dissipate. After a few short breaths, the young man seemed to have been drained of his consciousness, his body soft and limp, falling down and fainting away.
Wang Ke hastily ran to the back mountain, controlling the bound grey aura. As his mind turned, he dispersed the grey aura at the halfway point of the back mountain and his body shot out like a cannonball towards the distance, preventing the dispersing grey aura from occupying his body.
Back at the old man's house, Wang Ke saw the old man sitting outside the door of the main room smoking, and his brow furrowed as he asked: "Old master, where is your son?"
The old man stood up and sighed: "Just after you ran out, he fainted. I don't know what's going on either. Now I've moved him into the house."
Wang Ke nodded slowly and said, "Old man, I think your son has gotten himself involved in something unclean, probably that kind of unclean thing, which has greatly changed his personality."
The old man's face showed a look of shock and he exclaimed in a loud voice: "Unclean thing? What unclean thing?"
Wang Ke hesitated for a moment before speaking up: "Do you know what 'hui qi' is? The kind of hui qi that can confuse one's mind?"
He didn't want to say it at first, but thinking that rural areas have a strong acceptance of these strange things and everyone knows some.
The old man was stunned for a long time, and then muttered: "A gloomy air that can confuse people's minds? How could I not have heard of it?! There is a woman in our village who went mad after coming into contact with something dirty over a decade ago, and later jumped into a well to kill herself..."
I knew it!
Wang Ke thought to himself that after listening to the old farmer's story, he had basically made up his mind, but he would have to wait until the old man's son woke up before making further plans.
On the third afternoon after Wang Ke arrived at the mountain village, the young man who had been unconscious for a day and night finally woke up. And after Wang Ke used his true energy to treat her, the old woman's partner was now able to get out of bed and stand on her own, although walking was still somewhat difficult. However, the true energy that Wang Ke left in her body would nourish her damaged bones at all times, and he believed that she would recover soon, it wouldn't take much time.
His eyes were as clear as a mirror that had just been washed with clean water. The young man sat stupidly for half an hour after waking up, then got up and stumbled out of the house.
At the moment he stepped out of the hospital gate, two lines of clear tears rolled down his face and wetted his collar.
Wang Ke quietly followed the young man, trailing behind him to the halfway point on the mountain, where he hid behind a boulder and secretly observed the young man sitting on a massive rock.
Time slowly passed, when the sun set in the west, after the sunset dyed half of the western sky red, the young man slowly stood up straight. In his hand, a sharp knife appeared unknowingly, and under the painful and sorrowful flash of his eyes, it was slowly placed on his neck.
No, he's going to kill himself!
