Chapter 656: Good! Good! Good! You don’t have the ability to cure my illness!
Zhuo Tie did not rush to answer Gu Lianggong's question, but asked in return: "Uncle Gu, you have done a lot of good deeds over the years, right?"
"It's natural!"
Gu Lianggong didn't quite understand why Zhuo Tie didn't answer his question, but asked him this question instead, so he subconsciously answered:
"Old people used to say that if people do nothing good and only do bad things, they will be reborn as animals in their next life. I don't want to be an animal in my next life, so I have to do good things!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a flash of inspiration flashed across Gu Lianggong's mind. He looked up at Zhuo Tie and seemed to understand what Zhuo Tie meant, but he was still not sure. He said with a complicated expression:
"What do you mean?"
"Uncle Gu, since you understand this truth!"
At this point, Zhuo Tie paused and looked deeply at Gu Lianggong, his face and eyes full of admiration that was difficult to conceal, and he said seriously:
"You have done a lot of good deeds over the years, and you have accumulated a lot of good karma. So why are you still worried that you won't be reincarnated into a wealthy family in your next life?"
Gu Lianggong did good deeds out of selfish motives. Both he and other people in Liangshui Town knew it. They knew that Gu Lianggong did good deeds in the hope of having a good rebirth in the next life. Except for some really hopeless people, there were many people who took advantage of Gu Lianggong by doing this.
As for the rest of the people, they still admire Gu Lianggong very much.
Nowadays, even in peaceful times, few people do good deeds even though they know that if they do good deeds, they will be reincarnated into a wealthy family in the next life...
No.
To be precise, there are people in Liangshui Town who do good deeds, but they only do what they can. There are almost no people like Gu Lianggong who do good deeds day after day and year after year.
People like Gu Lianggong would be reborn into a wealthy family in the next life, which would be welcomed by him and other people in Liangshui Town.
If a young man from a wealthy family does good things, there is no telling how many people in need he can help; on the contrary, if a young man from a wealthy family does bad things, there is no telling how many common people he can harm.
The beast Zhu Xing is a living example.
Whether it is him or other people in Liangshui Town, they naturally hope that the sons of wealthy families like the Zhu family will not be beasts like Zhu Xing, but people like Gu Lianggong who do good deeds day after day and year after year.
"Zhuo Tie, how could I not understand what you said?"
Gu Lianggong seemed to have thought of something, sighed slightly, and said with a wry smile:
"It's just that as the old saying goes, 'It's better to be safe than sorry'. Who knows if something unexpected will happen? Besides, I do good things day after day and year after year, but they are all ordinary things that I can do.
It is unlikely that I can gain too much merit. Even if I do too much, it may not be enough for me to be reborn into a wealthy family in my next life!"
"Uncle Gu, don't underestimate yourself. With all the good things you have done over the years, as long as the judge in the underworld is a little bit discerning, he will definitely let you reincarnate into a wealthy family!"
Zhuo Tie was anxious when he heard this, and he didn't know how to answer. Zhao Derun stood up and said, "In fact, the matter of the gate of hell is just the icing on the cake for you, Uncle Gu. You don't have to ignore your children and rush to report to the King of Hell because of this matter!"
"Derun..."
Gu Lianggong didn't expect Zhao Derun to stand up and persuade him. Maybe it was because doctors have a kind heart. Just as he was about to speak and try to persuade Zhao Derun, Zhuo Tie found that he had no way to persuade him. Before he could finish his words, he heard an old voice, saying, "Gu Lianggong, aren't you in good health? Why did you suddenly come to my clinic? Did you get hurt?"
I saw an old man with white hair and a sage-like appearance walking out, followed by Zhao Huai.
"father!"
Zhao Derun shouted hurriedly, stood up from his chair, made way for the old man, his father Zhao Kangtai, and waited for him to sit down before he spoke: "Xiao Huai, I asked you to invite your grandfather over, but you didn't tell him about your Grandpa Gu?"
Zhao Huai shook his head.
"You kid..."
Zhao Derun was furious when he saw this, and was about to scold him, but before he could finish his words, Zhao Kangtai interrupted him impatiently:
"Okay, when I heard you invite me out to see that old man Gu Lianggong, I knew it was a big deal. I didn't have the energy to talk nonsense with Xiao Huai, so I rushed over here impatiently!"
After saying that, Zhao Kangtai didn't bother to look at Zhao Derun any more. He knew that this guy liked to make trouble for Zhao Huai whenever he had nothing to do. It's not that he didn't like Zhao Huai, but Zhao Huai was the only heir in their family, and they all hoped that Zhao Huai would carry on the family line.
Even though Zhao Derun scolded him harshly, who knew that he liked Zhao Huai more than anyone else.
He treated Zhao Huai like this for two reasons. First, it was to train Zhao Huai's ability to withstand stress. As long as he was a doctor, it was normal to encounter any kind of outrageous patients. If he couldn't withstand stress, he would be so angry that he would die. Second, he wanted to use this incident to let Zhao Huai understand a truth: no matter what happens, you have to stay calm and not just look ahead and behind.
"You are so sick..."
Zhao Kangtai motioned for Gu Lianggong to stretch out his hand and feel his pulse. His expression suddenly became extremely solemn. Before he could finish his words, Gu Lianggong interrupted him with a smile:
"Zhao Kangtai, is my illness very serious and I don't have many days left to live?"
"You old man, you really understand life. You are not even afraid of death now, so why are you laughing at me here?"
Zhao Kangtai snorted, a little surprised. Gu Lianggong looked so nonchalant, as if he didn't care about death at all. But it was understandable after thinking about it. Most of Gu Lianggong's peers had passed away. He was used to seeing the death of his peers, so it was difficult not to care about death. He was too lazy to care about this matter and changed the subject:
"Your problem is very serious, otherwise Derun wouldn't have the nerve to ask me to come and see you. But what I care about is your illness. How could you live so long? If it were someone else, with all your illnesses - no, even if it was just one or two illnesses, they would have to report to the King of Hell!"
"Maybe the King of Hell doesn't want to accept me yet. Unfortunately, even if the King of Hell doesn't want to accept me anymore, I still have to report to him. I can't delay. I want to be a rich and powerful man in my next life!"
Gu Lianggong chuckled, and when he saw Zhao Kangtai opening his mouth, he was about to say something, but before he could finish his words, he spoke first, "Are you sure you can diagnose and treat my illness?"
Zhang Kangtai shook his head.
Gu Lianggong was immediately delighted and said, "I knew that Derun had been learning skills from you since he was young. He is even better than you. Even he doesn't have the ability to diagnose and treat, so how can you possibly have the ability to diagnose and treat?"
