Chapter 154: Who Knows The Big Dream First!

Doctor Lin quickly walked into Zhou Ze’s room. This time, she could confirm that there was definitely something wrong with this courtyard house. Previously, there were only three people in the courtyard—herself, Zhou Ze, and the old man. Now, there was suddenly a large group of people drinking and chatting in the old man’s room next door. How was that possible?

Moreover, their words were obviously hinting at something.

“Ah Ze, there’s something wrong with this courtyard. Let’s go.”

Zhou Ze put down his phone and yawned. To be honest, he was indeed tired, but without Yingying by his side, he could not fall asleep. He clearly needed sleep physically and mentally, but being unable to fall asleep was the most painful.

“In the room next door, I heard many people talking,” Doctor Lin continued.

“Nothing, nothing.” Zhou Ze waved his hand.

“You were scared yesterday. You’ll be fine after resting for a few more days.”

Actually, after coming into close contact with the Specters, it was unavoidable for a living person to be affected. It was similar to being infected with a similar magnetic field, and they could hear things that they could not normally see. After a while, when the magnetic field dissipated, they would be fine.

Bull’s tears were similar.

Doctor Lin picked up the towel and helped Zhou Ze wipe his body. Zhou Ze enjoyed it very much, but from the way Doctor Lin was treating him, he was indeed not as good as Yingying.

After he was done, Doctor Lin put down the towel and bit his lips.

“I didn’t hear you wrong. If you’re telling me not to think too much, I can stop thinking about it.”

Zhou Ze nodded.

Doctor Lin did not say anything else. He took off his jacket and lay down on the bed. However, he lay on his side with his arm resting on his head.

From Zhou Ze’s side, he could only see her back view. Her slim but voluptuous curves were very attractive.

Actually, it was better for a woman to look like this.

Zhou Ze continued to scroll through his phone. Since he could not sleep, he was bored. If he wanted to blame someone, he could only blame the old Daoist. If the old Daoist arrived now, with Monkey’s help, his injuries would recover faster.

The old man’s ointment was indeed effective. The wound still felt a little cold, but it was still not as good as Monkey’s mud.

The breathing on Doctor Lin’s side gradually calmed down. It was unclear if he was asleep or not.

However, slowly, the voices next door started to get louder. There was the sound of a liquor license, the sound of bragging, and there were even some men singing a yellow plum opera at the top of their lungs.

This feeling was like someone had placed ten different television sets next door.

Zhou Ze saw Doctor Lin’s body tense up, and he subconsciously covered his ears with one hand.

She was not asleep.

It was indeed too difficult for her to sleep with a group of people like that.

Zhou Ze used the corner of his phone to knock on the wooden board beside the bed and scolded,

“It’s late at night, so tell me your manners. Don’t disturb others’ rest.”

After Zhou Ze shouted, the people on the other side immediately quietened down.

Zhou Ze continued playing with his phone.

Chen Ge did not know how long he had been playing with the phone. Since the phone was connected to the charging cable, he was not afraid that it would run out of battery. After midnight, it was 2 am.

Zhou Ze could not hold it in.

Actually, he had already thought about it during the day.

Until now.

He looked at Doctor Lin, who was still lying on his side, and reached out to support himself on the edge of the bed. He was about to get up, but the wounds on his body were indeed quite serious. Zhou Ze could not move himself, so he lay back down with a creak.

Doctor Lin turned around, looked at Zhou Ze, and asked directly,

“Want to go to the toilet?”

Zhou Ze nodded.

Doctor Lin helped Zhou Ze off the bed and walked out of the room.

There was no toilet in the courtyard house. There was a toilet diagonally across the room. It was a small, private room. It was a rural toilet. There was a wooden shelf above it for people to sit on, and below it was a pit or a large vat.

Actually, this old man did not look like he was short of money. His monthly allowance was probably quite a lot, and Doctor Lin had been invited to visit the old man’s collection room before. There were quite a few good collections inside. If he sold one or two of them outside, he could easily buy a house.

Zhou Ze supported himself against the wall with one hand, and when his other hand was about to unbuckle his belt, Doctor Lin reached out to unbuckle it for him.

This surprised Zhou Ze. At that moment, Doctor Lin was really like a wife serving her sick husband. Everything was so natural, and there was not the slightest bit of pretentiousness.

However…

Right at this moment…

An unfriendly voice sounded.

“Do you need help?”

It was the old man’s voice.

The old man woke up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet.

Doctor Lin had just unbuckled Zhou Ze’s belt when he heard this. He raised his head and looked at Zhou Ze.

Zhou Ze wanted to shout, “Continue! Don’t stop!”

However, he still gritted his teeth and pretended to be calm. “Let him do it.”

Doctor Lin looked worriedly at Zhou Ze.

“He can’t push me into the feces pit, can he?” Zhou Ze smiled. “I know what I’m doing.”

Doctor Lin nodded and walked out of the toilet. The old man walked in.

“What a coincidence. I’m getting old, and I can’t sleep well at night. When I wake up late at night, there’s something wrong with that thing. It can’t be compared to you young people. You can’t stop urinating.”

With the old man’s help, it was convenient for Zhou Ze to end the session. The old man used his arm to hold Zhou Ze with his back facing him. Zhou Ze could use his hands to turn on the tap and avoid embarrassment.

The old man helped Zhou Ze out of the toilet while Doctor Lin waited outside, ready to receive him.

Zhou Ze shook his head. “Go back and rest first. I’ll go to the old man’s room to chat.”

The old man was stunned for a moment, but he still nodded and said, “Yes.”

This old man was similar to the old Daoist priest. He came from different dialects. The old Daoist priest had traveled all over the country when he was young. He was probably similar to the old Daoist priest. He had been fighting with the army since he was very young, so his accent naturally became messy.

Entering the old man’s room, the room was a little small because a large black curtain separated the room into two halves.

Zhou Ze only saw the old man’s bed and a coffee table. That was all he could put here.

The old man placed Zhou Ze on the bed and made him a pot of cold tea.

“Let me see,” Zhou Ze said.

“There’s nothing to see. It’s not suitable to watch these at night.”

“I want to see,” Zhou Ze insisted.

“Sure, I’ll show it to you if you want. Actually, there’s nothing to hide.”

The old man seemed to be interested as well. He stood up, walked to the side of the black curtain, and pulled it open.

The curtain was lifted.

There was a platform with six steps inside, and the platform was filled with memorial tablets.

There was also a table under the rack. On it were offerings like yellow wine, cured meat, and two incense sticks.

“How lively.”

Zhou Ze said.

The old man was very excited. He rubbed his hands excitedly and said, “I don’t know why, but I find you pleasing to the eye.”

You’ve said this many times today.

“I just want you to come to my place to stay.”

The old man picked up the yellow wine on the offering table and took a sip. He smacked his lips and became more excited. He pointed at the tablets on the shelf and said,

“Come, let me introduce you.

‘ This is our Company Commander Chen. I was still young at the time. All I knew was to follow the big fellow and call him Company Commander Chen. I didn’t know his full name. He was sacrificed four or five years ago. He was hit by the Japanese Mountain Cannons and his corpse wasn’t even cleared. Unfortunately, the Japanese surrendered that year. He never saw them. ‘

This is Dog Wang, Zhao Sanquan, and Five Kiddo. They are in the same class as me. When we made it into the mountain, our team was responsible for bringing up the rear.

This was Zhou Cong. Sun Decai and Qin Liangyou had died in the battle of Huai’an. Tsk tsk, that battle had been very intense.

This is Zhao Peng, Sun Zhigang, Zhai Dazhuang, Ge Shufeng… They died in North Korea. Do you know about the Americans’ gasoline bombs? When I went out to look for them, they were all roasted. Damn it, even now, I still remember the taste of roasted human meat. I didn’t dare eat meat for the next ten years. Of course, it wasn’t that easy to eat meat then.

This is Zhu Houquan. This is…”

The old man said many names in one breath, including where these people had died. At the time, he was in the same class as him or in the same company. He explained everything in detail. This meant that he had kept the information about these dead comrades in his heart and had never forgotten it.

Zhou Ze sat by the bed.

He kept nodding.

He felt awkward. He was injured and could not get up.

Actually, Zhou Ze could tell that the old man could not see. He could not see that the room was filled with people.

Everyone was either sitting on the ground, leaning against the wall, or sitting at the table where the tribute was placed. Some were picking their ears, some were reading a book, and some were dozing off.

Whenever the old man introduced someone’s name,

That person raised his head and looked at Zhou Ze. He gave a simple and honest smile. It could be said that he had seen him before and knew him.

Zhou Ze responded with a smile and nodded.

After the old man finished his introduction, his throat seemed to have gone hoarse. He picked up the yellow wine on the table and took another sip.

“Awesome, how was it? Young man, were you scared?

Let me tell you, with our formation, even if it’s a ghost soldier, he wouldn’t dare to enter! ”

“…” Zhou Ze.

The old man let out a long sigh and said, “Young man, I really like you!”

“…” Zhou Ze.

“I told you, I’m not afraid of you laughing. Just like what I said earlier in the day, I’ve never been afraid when I fought in the war. I always charged ahead, but damn it, I can’t die. It’s always my comrades who fell. Sometimes, after a battle, I’m the only one left in the whole class.

“I don’t understand why I can’t die. I’ve lived until now, and I’m still doing well. I can earn money by selling some antiques.”

“Life of riches.”

Zhou Ze said.

This was the life of a rich man. If the old man did not join the army, go into business, or do other things, he would definitely rise up and become successful.

“Hehe, f*cking rich life. I understand now. My comrades sacrificed one by one, but I didn’t die. It was God who let me live and give them a home. After everyone sacrificed themselves, there would be a place to gather.

“In the past, I couldn’t afford to drink or eat meat. Now that the conditions are good, I can eat meat, drink wine, sleep, and snore without fear of the next day’s march. I’m alive, and that’s my purpose.”

Zhou Ze looked at the old man and said nothing.

Zhou Ze also looked at the crowd. Honestly speaking, this was the first time Boss Zhou did not look at these ghosts as if they were his sales figures.

“I’m not afraid to laugh at you, but I’ve grown older in the past few years, and I can’t sleep well anymore. So, before I go to bed, I get some yellow wine to drink.

Heh.

That worked.

Every night after falling asleep,

I could even dream of my former comrades sitting around the table, drinking wine and eating meat.

It was so satisfying.

It’s like they’re really staying at my place! ”
