Chapter 1090: Good People Don't Live Long
After understanding the cause and effect, the ins and outs, and the grievances, Chen Guanlou walked into the A-grade prison again and came to the cell door where Master Qin was being held.
"Old Qin, how have you been these past few days?"
"This old man has not been doing well at all. This old man is burning with anxiety every day, only hating that my own abilities are limited. Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen, as long as you are willing to help me get rid of that thief surnamed Liu, you can set any conditions."
Master Qin was both irritable and agitated. He had long calculated that as long as he could get rid of the man surnamed Liu, he could offer up all his family assets.
Compared to money, life was obviously more important.
Chen Guanlou shook his head slowly. "I eat the public's food, so I must abide by the court's rules. This is the Heavenly Prison, not a fighting guild; you should quickly give up on such unrealistic ideas.
However, although I cannot help you take revenge, I can promise you that I will protect the lives of your whole family. Two days ago, your eldest son was beaten up when he went out and almost had his leg broken. Fortunately, he was lucky, and someone shouted it out on the spot, saving his life. Saving him once doesn't mean saving him forever; it's hard to say what will happen in the future.
However, if you are willing to pay, and I step in, no matter how much ability the man surnamed Liu has, I can make him go back to where he came from."
Upon hearing this, Master Qin's eyes were about to split!
"That man surnamed Liu has such guts; in broad daylight, he actually dared to..."
"What does he not dare to do? Your Qin family is now a fish on the chopping block, waiting to be slaughtered. Master Qin, don't rush to get angry; you should think carefully about how to protect the lives of your wife and children. I heard your wife was so scared she fell ill, both daughters-in-law are out of their minds, and all your relatives and old friends are busy distancing themselves from your family, fearing they will be implicated. And your eldest daughter, she believed the man's lies and took poison to commit suicide. Tsk tsk..."
Chen Guanlou was both sighing and lamenting.
Human life, sometimes it is truly fragile!
A few provocative words from the man surnamed Liu were enough to take a life.
The biggest nemesis of the Qin family in this lifetime was the man surnamed Liu.
He was truly curious. "Looking at the man surnamed Liu's methods, his heart must be extremely dark and insane. Like this situation, half is due to external stimulation, and half is due to genetic personality. Old Qin, your judgment is poor; why did you marry into the Liu family back then? For a family with this kind of personality, were you not picky at all?"
"Brother Liu was not that kind of person," Master Qin said in a slow tone.
"But Liu Changrong is indeed a person with a dark and insane heart. He drove your second daughter to death at such a young age; did you not reflect on your own judgment? Why did you set up a childhood engagement? How did you provoke such a big nemesis?"
"This old man has always been kind to others and has never been willing to think of people in the worst light. But who could have thought that Liu Changrong would be so paranoid? It wasn't enough to harm one of my daughters; he wants to harm my whole family! Did my Qin family kill his parents and destroy his entire Liu family? He doesn't hate the main culprit, but comes to hate my Qin family; what kind of logic is that?"
Master Qin roared in anger, unable to understand, unable to understand at all.
Chen Guanlou let out a scoff.
He didn't sympathize with the Qin family's plight at all.
He mocked: "This matter never had any logic to begin with. You planted the cause yourself, so naturally, you must taste the bitter fruit. You didn't know how to judge people and easily set up a childhood engagement. Breaking off the engagement was not wrong; the mistake was why you kept the man surnamed Liu in your home, providing for his studies and imperial examinations?
You have too much money! You have a great conscience, and you have nowhere to do good deeds, right? You deserve this disaster. The old sayings have already taught you: 'Great kindness is like great enmity.' Did you study your books into a dog's stomach? You treated the words of your ancestors as wind in your ears.
The ancestors also taught you: 'Good people don't live long, while scourges live for a thousand years.' They also said: 'One should not have the heart to harm others, but one must have the heart to guard against others.' You didn't listen to a single word; were you just thinking about being a good person!
Even if you wanted to do good deeds and be a good person, at least you should have polished your eyes and seen the other party's character clearly. Just because the other party looked pitiful, you ignored everything and decided the other party needed your help. Just because he was pitiful, you decided the other party wouldn't have the heart to harm others. Why are you so self-righteous?"
Chen Guanlou scolded him with great satisfaction!
For people who did good deeds but ended up being bullied, at first he would sympathize, but after seeing too much, he began to get angry at their lack of resolve.
Without the ability, you still want to do good deeds! How capable! So capable, when you are returned kindness with enmity, don't cry and wail! Don't regret it! Back then, your eyes weren't blind, and your heart wasn't blind; why didn't you know how to be a little more cautious? Why were you so self-righteous?
Master Qin was completely stunned.
He didn't understand; he was clearly the victim, so why was he being scolded!
This, this, this... this was clearly twisted logic. This was clearly sophistry.
Chen Guanlou showed a mocking expression. "Old Qin, are you not convinced? Let me give you a piece of advice; listen well: Respect the fate of others and let go of the obsession to help others! Don't go running to help just because you see someone pitiful. If you have too much money and nowhere to spend it, give it to me. I'll spend it for you!
To put it in common terms, if you help someone, you bear their karma. Back then, you helped Liu Changrong, so you and the Qin family behind you bore the karma of the man surnamed Liu. Today, your Qin family has this disaster; it is all the cause you planted when you did good deeds back then."
"No, it's not like that. The human heart shouldn't be like this, and the world shouldn't be like this! Is it wrong to do good deeds and be a good person?" Master Qin was completely unable to accept Chen Guanlou's rhetoric.
It was all twisted paths and evil spirits; it must be overthrown!
"Yes, it is wrong, completely wrong!" Chen Guanlou didn't care whether the other party could withstand the impact on their worldview. " 'A handful of rice breeds gratitude, a bushel of rice breeds enmity'; the ancients already told you this. It seems you have lived in vain all these years, and your books were read in vain.
'To believe everything in books is worse than having no books at all!' No wonder you didn't succeed in your studies and your imperial examination ranking was low. You, you are a typical blockhead, holding onto books as a life guide; you deserve what you have today. Truly smart people use book knowledge to seek profit, not to be hijacked by books and follow the dogmatic statements in books!"
"What you say is wrong." Master Qin shook his head repeatedly, looking as if he had seen a ghost. "It's not like that! You have read the wrong books and taken the wrong path. Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen, pull back from the brink, turn back to the shore; you must not walk down one path to the dark!"
"I walk down one path to the dark, and I live beautifully. You didn't walk down one path to the dark, but unfortunately, your whole family is going to die. Master Qin, facing this situation, what are your thoughts?"
"Yin and Yang are reversed, the world is unfair, and villains are getting their way! But this old man firmly believes that the world cannot always be like this..."
"Unfortunately, you won't be able to see it. Also, I can tell you responsibly that the world is always like this, because human nature is like this! You are the one who read the wrong books."
Master Qin was greatly stimulated and for a moment did not know how to refute.
He held his head, appearing extremely painful. So painful that he had to smash his head against the wall to alleviate the pain in his heart.
"How can it be like this? How could it be like this? If everything was wrong from the beginning, then what were the decades I lived for?"
