Gu Miao: I said my wife is a good person, but she got angry QAQ
Qiu Yanping washed the towel that Gu Wenye had lent him, dried it and returned it to the owner. At the same time, he went into the other person's house according to the reason why Gu Wenye wanted to ask him about something.
The layout of Gu Wenye's room is almost exactly the same as Qiu Yanping's, a simple one-bedroom, one-living room, and one bathroom. The walls are the most original color, and the wooden furniture is also the original equipment matching the dormitory. There is not any "special treatment" that a general should have.
There wasn't even a trace of people. Except for the cups and the bed in the bedroom, there was no sign of anyone living there. It was deserted and lonely. Qiu Yanping was stunned for a few seconds and turned to look at Gu Wenye. He thought that Gu Wenye was completely different from the dead man he saw a few months ago, but now it seems that this is not the case. No matter how perfect a person appears on the surface, the details in life can reveal all the secrets.
Gu Wenye didn't notice Qiu Yanping. He took off his coat and put it on the low cabinet within reach. He asked, "What would you like to drink, Mr. Qiu? Juice? Tea?"
Qiu Yanping withdrew his thoughts. After all, this had nothing to do with him. At most, he would see if his leg could still be cured. There was no need to worry too much about it. After hearing the only two options proposed by Gu Wenye, he replied without thinking, "Juice."
Gu Wenye nodded slightly and went to pour some water for Qiu Yanping. Qiu Yanping then followed Gu Wenye around and looked around the house.
Gu Wenye turned around and saw Qiu Yanping almost close to his wheelchair. He was distracted and the cup in his hand tilted slightly. Qiu Yanping took it and held it steady. Qiu Yanping took a sip of water and said with a smile, "I'm sorry. I'm not familiar with the terrain and accidentally walked too close."
"It's okay, Mr. Qiu, please take a seat." Gu Wenye made a gesture of invitation, and Qiu Yanping sat on the only single sofa in the whole room.
"My brother comes to visit me from time to time, and it would be hard for him if there is no sofa in the house." Gu Wenye stopped and sat opposite Qiu Yanping, smiled slightly, and explained the reason for the existence of the sofa Qiu Yanping was sitting on. After all, it was strange to put an unnecessary sofa in the home of a disabled person. He subconsciously stacked his hands in the shape of a pyramid, slightly serious, and cut to the topic, "I mentioned Wang Ge before, and Mr. Qiu seemed to have expected the disappearance of the two fingerprints a long time ago?"
"Yeah." Qiu Yanping nodded. He was sitting on the sofa, which was much higher than Gu Wenye who was sitting on the wheelchair. He didn't like this distance difference. He crossed his legs and leaned forward, resting his elbows on his legs and looking at Gu Wenye with his chin propped up. This action suddenly shortened the distance between the two of them. He looked directly into Gu Wenye's eyes and said, "I did expect that the two fingerprints would disappear a long time ago. I also know who or what left them. But I don't think you can easily accept and believe this answer."
Gu Wenye frowned slightly, not satisfied with what Qiu Yanping said. He also felt that he was being fooled or looked down upon. He spoke in a low voice with a hint of authority, "Mr. Qiu, please speak."
Qiu Yanping didn't care about Gu Wenye's attitude. Since Gu Wenye was ready, he didn't mind giving him a big stimulus. "I think you should have heard that the wronged souls and obsessions of people who died unjustly will not leave the world easily. The two fingerprints on Wang Ge's neck are proof that there are indeed such souls lingering around him. The two bruises like fingerprints are not really caused by being strangled. It is more like a marked mark, which we call, Li."
Qiu Yanping noticed that Gu Wenye wanted to interrupt him, so he raised his finger and put it close to Gu Wenye's lips. Gu Wenye found that Qiu Yanping's fingers were very white, and the fingertips were rosy pink. Qiu Yanping sighed and said, "Don't interrupt me, General Gu. I'm showing you a new world you've never known."
"The so-called Li is the mark left by a soul with a strong obsession and unwilling to leave the world. Most of the people marked have had many ties with that soul in their lifetime. Once marked, they are like wood eaten by Li worms or a long-worn vessel, which will break sooner or later. Wang Ge's life will sooner or later be worn out because of this Li." Qiu Yanping retracted his fingers, looked at Gu Wenye and slowly spoke, "I know you will question me, General Gu. This should be something you have never heard of, but believe it or not, I have already told you the answer you want to know."
Gu Wenye did not say anything. He stared into Qiu Yanping's eyes for a long time, then slowly exhaled, "You are telling the truth." He used a declarative tone. He could see from Qiu Yanping's eyes that the other party was not talking nonsense, even though these words sounded like nonsense.
Qiu Yanping chuckled and shook his feet. "Why would I lie to you? There's no benefit."
"You can save him." Gu Wenye still had that declarative and firm tone, which made Qiu Yanping both surprised at his level of acceptance and wanted to laugh.
"You accept it quickly."
"I don't see a second choice." Gu Wenye said. His many years of experience in fighting enemies were enough for him to tell whether a person was lying or hiding something. When he realized that what Qiu Yanping said had no intention of deceiving him at all, he quickly made the best judgment.
Qiu Yanping nodded in agreement. "Indeed." He smiled. "As expected of General Gu, I thought you would need some time to digest this news." He paused and teased him again, "But why do you think I can save him? Why should I waste my time to save an unimportant person? You know, I don't have a good reputation on this planet. I have never been known for compassion."
Gu Wenye was stunned for a moment, and frowned slightly, "You saved a lot of people. I know."
The smile on Qiu Yanping's lips faded a little. He knew that Gu Wenye was talking about his original self. He straightened up slightly, stood up from the sofa, and looked at the man from top to bottom. "General Gu, you want me to save Wang Ge, so what can I get from you?"
