Every world is full of ghosts and monsters begging for hugs
Chapter 761: Falling in love despite being sick (2)
Everyone knows that Teacher Zhao has died. Now he appears in this dim house. Is he a human or a ghost?
Wang Qing's scalp felt numb and goose bumps appeared all over his body.
He was timid and was most afraid of ghosts and the like. In his impression, Teacher Zhao should be a kind and amiable person. However, even though Teacher Zhao still had a smile on his face, he still felt creepy.
Can a person really change so much?
Wang Qing said in disbelief: "Teacher Zhao, you are not dead!"
Teacher Zhao put down the tools in his hands. His health was indeed not very good. In addition, he had been busy working for some time, and now his back was becoming increasingly unstraight.
He coughed twice and said kindly, "Wang Qing, I have always liked you as a student. I have said before that you are the most suitable for academic research among all the students I have taught, because you don't know how to read the atmosphere, how to handle interpersonal relationships, and don't understand what to say and what not to say."
This was the first time Wang Qing knew that the teacher whom he regarded as a role model was so hypocritical when he smiled and talked. He was puzzled, "Why?"
Teacher Zhao sighed, "Originally, if you had not come to Zhaojiawan, or if you had left here earlier, you would have been fine, but you stayed until now, and heard things you shouldn't have heard, and said things you shouldn't have said."
No matter how stupid Wang Qing was, he understood one thing: he was tied here because he heard Zhao Shi arguing with his father last night.
It was obvious that Teacher Zhao had a plan for pretending to be dead. He wanted everyone around him to believe that he was dead and that there really was some evil spirit causing trouble. However, Wang Qing was obsessed with the conversation between Zhao Shi and Teacher Zhao at night.
Wang Qing also told this matter out loud. If other people in the village knew about it, I'm afraid that Teacher Zhao pretending to be dead would arouse suspicion.
Since Teacher Zhao was willing to pretend to be dead, it showed that what he was planning behind the scenes was extremely important to him, and he would never allow anyone to ruin his plan.
So even though his son died for some unknown reason, he did not show up.
What's more, it's only one student who is being sacrificed now?
Wang Qing has always been law-abiding and he doesn't do bad things, but that doesn't mean other people can have the same high sense of morality as him. He knows that his situation is not good, but even if he dies, he has to die knowingly!
"You're not dead, but you let everyone think you're dead. What on earth do you want to do?"
Wang Qing's death was already a foregone conclusion, so Teacher Zhao certainly didn't mind making it clear, "If you lived to my age, with status, money and prestige, what else would you want?"
Wang Qing couldn't answer because in his opinion, it was enough for a person to have these things.
Teacher Zhao laughed and said, "You are still young and have never been in my position, so of course you don't understand."
Teacher Zhao's cloudy eyes gradually became sharp because of desire. "I have status, money and reputation, but I don't have the life to enjoy them. Tell me, isn't this God deliberately playing tricks on me?"
He worked hard all his life and finally retired to enjoy life. However, as if God played a joke on him, he was diagnosed with cancer. Even more unfortunately, the cancer was in the late stage and he only had three months left to live.
Naturally, he was unwilling to do so.
Walking on the street, seeing those sanitation workers who were not as well-known and educated as himself but could live in good health until their hair turned white, the sense of imbalance in his heart emerged more and more.
Yes, he can make greater contribution to society if he is alive, so why shouldn’t he be allowed to live?
Even those who have been influenced by books for many years and seem to have developed a noble character will gradually distort their principles in the face of life and death.
There has always been a legend in Zhaojiawan. It is said that in the fire that year, the theater building collapsed and many people died in the fire, including the warlords who came to watch the theater. A large amount of treasure belonging to the warlords was buried underground.
However, many people wanted to find the theater, but they could not find it, as if the destroyed theater had never existed.
But according to the old man, the theater did exist many years ago. It is so mysterious that maybe there is really a treasure buried there.
This is why the people of Zhaojiawan are unwilling to move away even after so many years, knowing that the local area is backward. Generation after generation, they have been hoping to find the treasure and do not want to move away and let others take advantage of it.
They heard that the treasure was buried underground, so naturally they didn't want government officials to come into the village to start work to improve the infrastructure. What if the treasure underground was discovered by those people?
It will definitely have to be handed over to the country.
Teacher Zhao is not short of money, and all he does is not for the treasures. What he wants is that mysterious power.
He wants to live and wants to live forever. Anyone can die in this world, but he cannot die.
But with so many people eyeing the treasure, he had to find a way to hide his true purpose from others.
So he "died of illness".
In fact, pretending to be dead is very simple. When someone dies in the village, they are just put in the coffin. There is no need for the hospital to issue a death certificate. His two children said that they watched him enter the coffin, and naturally no one else would think too much about it.
During the days of the funeral, Teacher Zhao hid in a secluded place, watching coldly as a group of people participated in a funeral without a dead person.
To his surprise, Wang Qing came. Not only did he come, but he also notified Bai Yao.
But at that time, Teacher Zhao also thought that it was not a big problem. Whether it was the "blood and tears" on the portrait or the dead crow on the coffin lid during the burial, these were all the result of the Zhao family's careful design in order to prove that there was evil spirit causing chaos.
But they didn't expect that there would be so many crows on the way down the mountain. It was really weird.
What they didn't expect was Zhao Si's death.
Teacher Zhao was of course heartbroken when his only son died suddenly. Zhao Shi realized something was wrong and was frightened, thinking that there was some evil spirit causing trouble. She begged her father to stop, but Teacher Zhao had already come to this point and it was impossible to turn back. So the father and daughter had a quarrel, and the noise happened to be heard by Wang Qing.
So, Wang Qing is tied up here now.
Teacher Zhao was already a "dead man" and no one would think that he was the one who did it.
