“It’s not inconceivable at all to think a dog can understand a human,” w.a.n.g Fengyi said.
“Enough of that,” the eldest brother finally said. “Even if you are telling the truth, we don’t have any evidence to prove that dad’s death had something to do with the dog. There is no video or witnesses.”
“Brother, what do you mean? Just let it go?” w.a.n.g Fengyi asked.
“What do you want?” the eldest brother asked.
“w.a.n.g Fenghua and his family should take the responsibility,” w.a.n.g Fengyi said.
“Responsibility? Financial compensation?” the eldest brother asked.
“Yes, we can’t just have our father die without gaining anything,” w.a.n.g Fengyi said.
Their sister sighed softly. She knew her younger brother’s thoughts and temper. “You shouldn’t have such an idea.”
“What?” w.a.n.g Fengyi was growing more angry.
“We have no evidence,” his sister said.
“I am going to argue with them,” w.a.n.g Fengyi said.
“Brother!” The other siblings could do nothing but let him go.
While w.a.n.g Yao was in the clinic, an uninvited guest paid a visit to his home.
“Fengyi, what do you mean?” w.a.n.g Fenghua asked.
“I am being straightforward and not hiding anything,” w.a.n.g Fengyi said. “My dad was scared to death by your dog.”
w.a.n.g Fenghua and Zhang Xiuying were shocked.
“Are you saying that Jianguo was scared to death because of our dog?” w.a.n.g Fenghua asked.
“Yes!” w.a.n.g Fengyi was set on his accusation.
“We don’t know anything about it” w.a.n.g Fenghua said. “I will call Xiaoyao back to ask him.”
After receiving the call, w.a.n.g Yao rushed back as fast as possible.
“What happened? The dog I raised scared the old man to death? What evidence do you have?” w.a.n.g Yao asked indifferently.
Although he felt he should take some responsibility for the man’s death, he thought w.a.n.g Fengyi was being too arrogant by seeking an explanation, which he found unacceptable.
“Of course I have evidence. I just went to the mountains and saw your dog in the place where my father died,” w.a.n.g Fengyi said.
“Just because of that?” w.a.n.g Yao asked.
w.a.n.g Fenghua and Zhang Xiuying were also stunned. It was really too far-fetched. It was as if it was purely for blackmail.
“Many people in the village have been to the mountains and seen the dog, but they are all fine. Your reason is pure nonsense.” In front of his parents, w.a.n.g Yao was well controlled given they lived in the same village as the man and his family. Otherwise, he would have punished him.
“If it was not due to your dog, why did you carry my dad down?” w.a.n.g Fengyi asked.
His question was very cla.s.sic. It was like asking, “Why did you give him a hand if you did not hit him?”
“He was a senior in the village, honest and sincere,” w.a.n.g Yao said. “That is why I helped. If he had been someone else, I would not have helped.”
“You helped because you feel sorry!” w.a.n.g Fengyi was insatiable.
“I don’t want to talk to you here. Quickly leave my home,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
Because of the noise, the neighbors nearby went to w.a.n.g Yao’s courtyard.
“Xiuying, what happened?” a neighbor asked. “Is it Fengyi? Why does he not mourn at home? What is he doing here?”
“So many people are here. Villagers! I am here to tell you that my dad was killed by them,” w.a.n.g Fengyi said loudly.
“What?” The villagers were shocked. “How can that be?”
w.a.n.g Fenghua’s and Zhang Xiuying’s faces quickly changed. They trembled with anger.
“Get out!” w.a.n.g Yao roared as he sent out some Qi.
The roar, mixed with his anger neixi, was controlled very well within a certain range. It was like a directional explosion.
Bang! It sounded like a bomb shocking the sky.
w.a.n.g Fengyi shouted and held his head in pain. His ears were full of murmur sound. “It hurts! My head hurts. Please, please give the way for me.”
At this time, Fengyi’s eldest brother and sister were outside the courtyard. Once they saw him holding his head, they immediately stepped forward. “Brother, what’s wrong with you?”
“It hurts! My head hurts!” w.a.n.g Fengyi shouted. His ears and nose were bleeding.
“What’s wrong with you?” His brother and sister were frightened seeing him like this.
w.a.n.g Fengyi was suffering from tinnitus, so he was unable to hear what his brother and sister said.
“What’s going on here?” w.a.n.g Fengyi’s eldest brother asked. “Is it because of Xiao Yao’s roaring?”
“It cannot be since we are all here near him and are fine,” the neighbor said. “The voice was just a bit loud.”
“Sorry, we did not intend to offend you. Please forgive him,” w.a.n.g Fengyi’s eldest brother said.
“Xiao Yao, what happened to him?” Zhang Xiuying asked her son.
“I don’t know,” w.a.n.g Yao said indifferently.
The man had purely come to their home to make trouble, possibly with the intention of blackmail. The death of the old man indeed had something to do with w.a.n.g Yao, which he did not deny. Although he did not explicitly admit it, he was willing to compensate them if he could. But, the argument had been completely unreasonable, and it was at his home. In this case, he had to punish him.
w.a.n.g Fengyi left carried by his brother and sister. The neighbors around also left, except for a few people.
“Xiuying, tell me if you need help,” one of the neighbors said.
“Fenghua, if he dares to make trouble again, tell me,” another neighbor said.
w.a.n.g Fenghua and Zhang Xiuying had a good reputation in the village. They were enthusiastic, loyal, and kind, so they had a good relations.h.i.+p with their neighbors.
w.a.n.g Yao also enjoyed great reputation in the village. In less than one year, his great medical skills allowed him to cure a lot of diseases in the village. Plus, he did not charge any fee in some cases. For that, the villagers appreciated him. Additionally, seeing that people from big cities came from outside to see him, the villagers admired and respected him more. In secret, many people wanted to build a relations.h.i.+p with him. There were also some people trying to make trouble or provoke him, but all of them had been sent to the police station as a result. Given all those reasons, it was natural that many people wanted to help him in this matter.
“Thank you.” Zhang Xiuying smiled.
After sending out all the villagers, only three families remained.
“Xiao Yao, tell me, is there any relations.h.i.+p between the death of the Jianguo and you?” w.a.n.g Fenghua asked.
“Dad, he died on the mountain. At that time, no one knew what was going on, but I asked San Xian. When he died, San Xian was not present,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
As for this matter, he prepared to keep the truth to himself, sparing his parents from blaming themselves.
“That’s good,” w.a.n.g Fenghua said.
“Dad and mom, forget it and let it go,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
“Your father and I know that w.a.n.g Fengyi is a troublemaker in the village,” his mother said. “I thought he would become better when he left the village, but he is still like that.”
At this point, the troublemaker in their conversation was lying on the bed and talking nonsense.
“I told him not to go there, but he did not listen to me. This is what you deserve,” the eldest brother said..
“Don’t say that now. We should think of how to deal with it. Is it because of w.a.n.g Yao?” w.a.n.g Fengyi asked.
“What he could do when so many people were there?” his sister asked.
“What should we do?” the eldest brother asked.
“Send him to see a doctor,” his sister said.
Instead of taking the time to hold a funeral for their father, the siblings took their youngest brother to the hospital.
The funeral was held the next day. In the village, all the people who knew the family partic.i.p.ated by burning paper that resembled money as an offering to the dead to show their sympathy. The villagers thought highly of funerals and weddings. w.a.n.g Yao’s father attended and put down $100 before leaving.
“Look at Fenghua. He is generous,” a villager said. “When w.a.n.g Fengyi was in the village, he was like an idler. And, he did not learn anything good outside except how to blackmail.”
During the funeral, w.a.n.g Fengyi was lying in an hospital bed groaning. “Uncomfortable… My head is uncomfortable.”
He had been suffering from a headache for a day. It felt like his head was numb and swollen. It was as if it had been consistently swelling from being soaked in the sea and was almost ready to explode.
He couldn’t tolerate it no matter if he was sitting or lying down. He could not sleep at all. He felt as if he was going crazy.
“No, I must leave the hospital!” He did not care whether his family heard his words.
“You are crazy,” his wife said. “The doctor said that your situation is a little special and still unstable. You need to stay in the hospital.”
