Chapter 1: Big lump on the neck

Li Dafa is going to die.

He hasn't swallowed a grain of rice for three days. He even spits out milk, and after spitting out milk, he spits out a mouthful of green water.

His neck was covered in large bumps that squeezed his throat and esophagus. Just like the mythological movies he watched when he was a child, when the monster exerted its force, a big stone rumbled down the mountain path, blocking thousands of troops and horses. If the reinforcements don't come, the monsters will triumph. Big lumps are monsters.

He has lymphoma. I found out last year when it was almost Mid Autumn Festival. After chemotherapy at the county hospital, he still feels pain and wants to undergo surgery.

The doctor said, "Don't move. If there's something delicious, eat it. If there's something good to drink, drink it. Surgery is a waste of money

Li Dafa felt that the hospital looked down upon him, an old farmer. He was indeed tight on his wallet and could only afford four figures. However, there are many vines and vines in his garden. He has two sisters, two brothers, six nephews, and seven nieces, each of whom provides some financial support. It is not a problem to cure his illness. As soon as it entered the twelfth lunar month, he felt like his neck had exploded. He really wanted to chop off his neck with a knife and put his head directly between his shoulders. Becoming a robot may alleviate the pain.

He sold his corn and peanuts, and finally squeezed his savings into five figures. He carried all the money in his arms and walked straight into the hospital gate.

The doctor asked, "Where are the family members

Li Dafa said, "I don't have any family members

The doctor asked, "Where are the relatives

Li Dafa said, "I have no relatives

So Li Dafa signed it himself, and he straightened his waist, like a brave soldier who died, without looking back, and walked into the operating room.

Nine days after the surgery, the doctor mobilized him to be discharged from the hospital. At that time, the wound had not healed and there was always a centipede moving around in the neck. The doctor is afraid that he will die here, and his family will come to cause trouble. In recent years, those who were involved in car accidents and couldn't be saved, and those who died here due to terminal illnesses, not only did their families not pay for medical expenses, but there were also people wearing white cloth tied with white hair ropes crying and kowtowing at the door. This is called medical mischief. It is said that in a village near the county town, professional doctors are rented out for 80 yuan per person per day, and they also take care of meals. However, they just cry and shout, pretending that the person who died is their own old man or old lady. When crying, they must shed tears and snot to be considered qualified. Many people say that crying for nothing is the hardest thing in the world. Indeed, it's much better than doing odd jobs and sleeping outside for a day. These medical troublemakers are tired, so they find a shady place to hang them out word for word. Someone sends them instant noodles and provides them with boiling water, but they always eat the noodles without waiting for them to soak, and suck them up until they are sizzling.

Li Dafa said, "I don't have any family members

The doctor said, "You must have relatives, right

Li Dafa said, "Aren't relatives and family members the same thing

The doctor said, "Farting when you take off your pants and farting when you wear your pants seem to be the same thing. Farting when you take off your pants can spread three miles away, but farting when you wear your pants can't leave your crotch. 'Relatives' are those who take off their pants, and' family members' are those who wear their pants

Li Dafa understood that whether he put on or took off his pants, the hospital was just afraid that these poor people would fart. He never causes trouble for the country. He always hands over the best grain to the government when farming, so he listened to the doctor's advice and went home.

His older brothers and sisters raised some money for him, and besides the surgery, he had a surplus. After the surgery, he felt that his body was very light, but his confidence was also very strong. He used to be as strong as a cow, and cutting off those tumors was equivalent to losing a few pounds of meat. Slowly, he returned to his previous state. During the Chinese New Year, he planted peanuts in spring, wheat and corn in summer, and corn and peanuts in autumn.

The crops he planted looked like children he raised, and could be considered the top card in the village. The crops are growing, and there is something growing around his neck. Before the corn was harvested, the wart on his neck grew big, and he often grinned in pain.

After harvesting corn and approaching the Mid Autumn Festival, Li Dafa went to a town eight miles away to attend a gathering. He stood in front of the meat stall for a while, braving the tumor growing on his neck. He said, "Chop two pounds of pork ribs for me. I want the ribs, chop them smaller

The meat boss sharpened the stick a few times and chopped the ribs as big as bamboo boards. Li Dafa said, "Chop a little smaller, like mahjong." So the meat boss chopped the bamboo board in half again, slightly larger than mahjong.

When looking for money, the meat boss stared at Li Dafa's neck and said, "Bro, you have thick neck disease. One year, I killed a pig, and the pig's neck was also covered with large tumors, as big as that big white bowl, even bigger than yours, several times

After Li Dafa returned, he stewed pork ribs with liquefied gas for nearly two hours. Usually, he is reluctant to use liquefied gas to stew pork ribs. He always uses firewood or tree branches. He said, "Stewing meat with liquefied gas has a spicy aroma. Our ancestors have been stewing with firewood for thousands of years, and the taste is the most authentic

He used up two hours of liquefied gas and didn't feel heartbroken.

He only ate one piece of pork rib, which was slightly larger than mahjong. It took him nearly five minutes to swallow it slowly and finally reach his stomach. The rest was given to the old silly dog that had been raised in the yard for thirteen years. The old stupid dog was tied under a big wutong tree all the year round. After eating meat for three days, he shook his tail violently at Li Dafa. This was his only feast for 13 years.

After the pork rib incident, the sarcoma on his neck began to grow wildly. Not only is it difficult to eat, but even the voice of the speaker is blocked, like a one year old child who learns to speak and needs someone close to translate.

The closest people are his two sisters.

The eldest sister lives in the town, and the second sister is in the mountains ten miles away. Every once in a while, they come to see this little brother. Li Dafa spent most of his life mixed in, but never found a wife. He is one of the five old bachelors in the village.

The only young man in the village is named Guogai. Guogai has been holding onto Guogai's head for over sixty years, and his hair has already fallen out. There is no Guogai to hold onto. When Li Dafa hadn't received a grain of rice in three days, his bald pot lid came over to take a look. Li Dafa reached out from under the blanket and pressed the pot lid on his old bark wrist for a long time. He said to Li Dafa, "You're okay, Yan Wang won't accept you

Leaving the room, Guogai said to Li Dafa's two older sisters, "Are you ready to send the old clothes? It's been about seven or eight days

After listening to Guo Gai Lang's words, his second sister called her elder brother in Jiamusi. Jiamusi's elder brother had a bit of a back in his ears and misheard him: "Ah? Dead? How could he die so young? Sob

Second Sister raised her voice and almost shouted on the phone, 'Not dead yet, almost! Not dead yet...'

Li Dafa, who was lying in bed, heard it very clearly. With a sudden blow to his forehead, he spat out a mouthful of green water. He used a small wooden stick to knock on the head of the bed. Big sister ran over and wiped it off with toilet paper. He saw that the wrinkles on Big sister's face were as fine and dense as walnuts, but he liked to see her face.

The second elder sister still called the second elder brother in Tianjin in the yard. The second elder brother had no back ears, but the second elder sister's voice remained high. The second elder brother said, "Well, well, go back tomorrow and see him for the last time. He likes to eat the big Fried Dough Twists here. Can he still eat it?"
