  “No, I beg you. We live in the same village. You have to save me!” Wang Zecheng cried.

  “As what I have said, it depends on you. You should think about it,” Wang Yao said.

  Wang Zecheng thought about the bad things he had done, even the things that he did when he was a child, such as stealing or peering at women’s bathing.

  “Wait!” He suddenly thought of something. Then, he looked very solemn. “Is it because of my dad?”


  “Uncle Yulong, what do you think?” Wang Yao asked.

  “I will change. I will change when I go back,” Wang Zecheng awkwardly said.

  “Then, go back.” Wang Yao did not care whether he really understood or not.

  “Then, give me a prescription,” Wang Zecheng said.

  “I can’t. If there isn’t anything else, you should go back.” Wang Yao sent the guest out.

  Wang Zecheng lowered his head and kept silent for a while. “I am ill because I am not filial!”


  Chen Ying, who was on the side, heard and understood it immediately. She then turned to look at Wang Yao.

  She was not sure whether there was a nemesis between heaven and earth. At least, she had never met one. But, Dr. Wang could definitely make people feel such discomfort by his extraordinary ability.

  As for the unfilial son, he should feel ashamed of his behavior.

  Wang Zecheng left with his head lowered. He seemed to really believe it, and he was really scared.

  “Sir, is there really a nemesis in the world?” Chen Ying asked.

  “I am willing to believe that,” Wang Yao said.

  People often said that a nemesis really exists in the world. If not, it was just because the time was not yet up. In fact, this world was indeed one where good people deserved no reward but evils were free.

  “Did you drive here?” Wang Yao asked.

  “Yes,” Chen Ying said.

  “Where are you staying?” Wang Yao asked.

  “Lianshan County,” Chen Ying said.

  “Well, I will treat you to a light meal tonight,” Wang Yao said.

  “Then, that will trouble you,” Chen Ying said.

  Wang Zecheng returned home. He looked like he had lost his soul.

  “How is it?” his wife asked.

  “Nothing. I will sleep first.” He went back to the room and crouched on the bed. He looked at the ceiling and was thinking about something.

  Oops! His stomach started to hurt again. He went to the toilet. There was blood in his stool. After coming out of the toilet, he entered the room where his father lived.

  The old man was lying on the bed. He looked really bad because of his illness. In the small room, he didn’t know how long it was since the room had been cleaned. There was a light, sour smell, and the bedding and mattress were well-worn. They had not been washed for a long time.

  Wang Zecheng stood by the bed.

  “Dad,” he softly shouted.

  “Oh, what’s wrong? Do you feel better?” The old man hurriedly asked as he turned to look at his son.

  “I am much better.” At this moment, Wang Zecheng really wanted to cry.

  The old man thought, Hey, he knelt on the ground.

  “Dad, I am wrong,” Wang Zecheng said.

  “My boy, what’s up?” The old man lying on the bed sat up.

  “I am not filial!” Wang Zecheng slapped himself and snorted. “I am wrong.”


  “OK, OK.” The old man was flustered. He didn’t know what happened to his son. Why did he suddenly have such a performance?

  “From now on, I must be filial to you,” his son said.

  “Good, good,” the old man hurriedly said.

  He was suddenly awake. The prodigal son became good because he was scared. However, it was not known whether it would last long.

  In the afternoon, Wang Yao closed the door of the clinic early. He told his family that he would have a meal with Chen Ying at a restaurant.

  They ordered some dishes of venison. It was not exquisite, but it was all natural. Since they drove here, they did not drink wine. The two people talked a lot.

  After Chen Ying drove back, the owner of the restaurant came over and patted Wang Yao’s shoulder.

  “Your girlfriend is so beautiful,” he said.

  Wang Yao smiled. “No, not my girlfriend.”


  That night, Wang Zecheng’s father could not sleep. His son was acting weird and he did not know why.

  What the hell is going on? He thought for a night.

  His son also did not fall asleep because he was uncomfortable in his stomach. He still had blood in his stool when he went to the bathroom. He was not complaining. He was just afraid and regretful.

  Looking at his father, he felt that he had been too unfilial in the past.

  At night on Nanshan Hill, the mountain firewood was burning. There was the multifunctional pot for herbs and ancient spring water. Codonopsis pilosula, fruit of Chinese magnoliavine, poria cocos, Chinese Peony, licorice…… All kinds of herbs were added in.

  The scent of medicine pervaded the medicine field. The dog looked up from the nest. The goshawk stood on a tree quietly, like a sculpture. The night passed like that.

  In the early morning, the sky was a bit gray. It was as if it was covered with a layer of yarn. Chen Ying came very early.

  “Thank you, sir,” she said.

  “You’re welcome,” Wang Yao said. “After going back, he should take it according to the method. I will go to Jing soon.”


  “OK, thank you,” Chen Ying said.

  At 9 a.m., the big horn that had been quiet for a long time in the village began broadcasting again. It was about the construction of a new building in a county town. The villagers went to the brigade’s room to listen to specific news.

  In the county town, the foundation of the real estate developed by the Sun family had already begun to be built, which was known by many people in the village. A large number of people had even visited there more than once. The location was good, and the building contractor was a large group. The current housing prices in the county towns were rising, not falling. Everyone was anxious. Since the broadcast began, nearly every household in the village went to listen.

  For a time, the brigade house was full of people.

  “Be quiet!” Wang Jianli’s voice was hoarse.

  Originally, this matter could have been put off. His brother had just died. He did not want to organize this matter, but he received a call from Sun Yunsheng. He had to do it.

  The people in the village asked questions carefully. Some of them filled out forms directly on the spot. Some people wanted to think about it. It lasted the whole day. It seemed that the village had not been so bustling in a long time.

  But, not all people had gone there, like Wang Zecheng. He had asked his wife to take her father to the hospital. Wang Yilong didn’t want to go. Under his son’s insistence, he went to the county hospital.

  There was a big problem. The doctor did not tell the old man. Instead, he asked Wang Zecheng to explain the situation of the old man to him.

  “The situation of the elderly is like this,” the doctor said. “There is no good way to treat it. My advice is to go back, eat, drink, and wait.”


  After listening to the doctor, Wang Zecheng was stunned. How could this be? I just repented but heard such news.

  His father was terminally ill. It was too late. His life would not last long. He was awakened, but God did not give him a chance. He was alone in the corner and cried.

  The doctor sighed. “Don’t cry. The old man will be suspicious when he comes out.”


  “Oh, OK.” Wang Zecheng wiped his tears away.

  “How is it?” the old man asked after he came out.

  “It’s OK. There is inflammation in the liver. The doctor has already prescribed the medicine.” Wang Zecheng said sentences he had previously thought of.

  “Well, let’s go home,” his father said.

  Wang Zecheng drove his father home. On the road, he asked his wife to make something delicious. In the evening, he accompanied his father to have a small talk before he returned to his room.

  The old man was lying on the bed covered with a brand new quilt. He felt even more confused. He suddenly became better. He took me to the hospital, and he cooked for me? He didn’t understand.

  Wang Zecheng’s wife couldn’t understand why her husband suddenly changed.

  “What happened to you these two days?” his wife asked when the couple were laying on the bed.

  “What happened?” Wang Zecheng asked.

  “I feel that you have not been right for two days,” his wife said.

  “You mean that I suddenly treat dad well, right?” Wang Zecheng asked.

  His wife hesitated. “Ah, yes.”


  “I used to be idiot. I didn’t understand many things. Now I understand, but it is too late,” Wang Zecheng said.

  “It’s too late? Why?” his wife asked.

  “He is terminally ill,” Wang Zecheng said.

  His wife was shocked. “Can’t he be cured?”


  “No, he can’t,” Wang Zecheng said.

  “Would you like to go to the hospital in the province?” his wife asked.

  “Well, I’ll think about it. I will go to the province tomorrow. I will take the test report to the doctor first. If they have ways, I will take my dad there!”
