There is no doubt that Wang Qianshan has gone crazy.
If he hopes that Chinese medicine can cure his lame leg and thus change his destiny, it can be regarded as a lofty ideal and a lofty ambition. As for whether this ideal and aspiration is so lofty and achievable, we don't care for the moment.
After all, no one has the right to laugh at or deny other people’s ideals and wishes. Even if his ideals and wishes seem illusory and difficult to realize, what if they come true? Just because it is difficult to achieve does not mean it cannot be achieved. Moreover, many technological leaps and miracles in the world began with the individuals involved harboring dreams that seemed unattainable.
But he plunged headlong into the field of metaphysics, hoping that "The Book of Changes" could change his fate caused by his lameness. This is really unexpected and hard to imagine.
Being superstitious about "The Book of Changes" and admiring metaphysics does not mean that this person is insane. People from all walks of life, whether they are social elites or ordinary people, from the elderly to the men and women who eat and drink, cannot agree on the theory of metaphysics. There are some who believe in it, some who question it, and some who deny it. Their mental states are normal, but their thoughts and ideas are different.
In Ma Hongwen's view, Wang Qianshan's open mind and superstitious belief in numerology really made it hard for him to agree.
Wang Qianshan believes that there is an invisible and intangible connection that cannot be described in words between the fate of the lame leg and the numerology "revealed" in the "Book of Changes". Then he attempts to master the mysterious and unpredictable numerology code by studying the "Book of Changes", and then adjusts the trajectory of destiny by reordering or assembling the code, so that the ethereal thing of fate can move forward on the track he wants, thereby driving forward The change in the fate of his lame leg further completed what he called a destiny change against nature.
This made Ma Hongwen confused. He believed in the good and evil of human nature, and the causal connection between good and evil. He had never considered whether he could "cure" the lame leg by changing his destiny, and he had never thought about what might exist between the two. Bullshit connection.
Therefore, in Ma Hongwen's eyes, Wang Qianshan is like a "martial arts idiot" in martial arts, who has reached the point of becoming obsessed. The difference is that the characters in the book often suffer from stagnant Qi, which leads to a "divergence in practice", but Wang Qianshan's excessive obsession and accumulation of resentment lead to a "divergence in knowledge."
A great man of a generation once said that thought is the forerunner of action and theory is the guide to practice. Ideological understanding determines a person's action direction and behavioral results.
Once a certain idea appears in a person's mind, even if he only hesitates and hesitates, he will still be guided by it subconsciously, and his actions will be driven, unknowingly, quietly approaching the destination designated by this idea. If you take action with great fanfare, the results of your actions will only come sooner.
Therefore, what kind of ideological understanding will produce what kind of behavioral results.
A person who has firm revolutionary ideals and beliefs will definitely devote himself to the revolutionary cause and die; a person who has the dream of getting promoted and making a fortune will definitely use up his scheming and hard work, and eventually become separated from the masses of the people and suffer the consequences. A sinful path that is despised by people; a person who has the idea of cheating with a mistress will definitely be ready to do anything to try the forbidden fruit.
Therefore, ideological and political construction has always been an heirloom that our party cannot abandon.
There is no doubt that after Wang Qianshan "told the fortunes" of himself and Wang Wenhui, the absurd conclusion that Wang Wenhui and him "their horoscopes are in conflict with each other and are destined to live and die" was like a seed in Wang Qianshan's mind. It takes root in the soil of recognition, thrives, and eventually takes hold, even becoming mainstream.
The reason why such a terrible idea could successfully invade Wang Qianshan's brain like a dose of poison and eventually lead him to take action is inextricably related to Wang Qianshan's growth environment, family education, and his own personality.
Born with a physical disability, Wang Qianshan was sensitive and had low self-esteem. This is understandable.
When he was only seven or eight years old and in the first or second grade, when faced with the ridicule of bad-mouthed or naughty children, he felt extremely uncomfortable and the only solution he could think of was to "change schools."
But Wang Wenhui disagreed and believed that this was not the fundamental solution to the problem. Wang Wenhui's implication should be that Wang Qianshan
Look directly at the problem and face the fundamental problem of "lameness" calmly, instead of "changing schools" to avoid the problem.
Wang Wenhui may have wanted to instill the idea of "self-confidence and self-improvement" into Wang Qianshan, and he also knew that education should start from childhood, so he told Wang Qianshan such "big principles" when he was only seven or eight years old, but he didn't understand it at all. I have considered the "Chicken Soup Inscription" such as "Children's education should start with continuous induction and gradual progress."
It can be seen that at least in the education of Wang Qianshan, Wang Wenhui was a "rough man". Not only did he fail to help Wang Qianshan solve the problem, he also did not realize that he needed psychological counseling at all.
Therefore, Wang Qianshan, who was "slapped from the second floor to the first floor" by Wang Wenhui, not only continued to face the ridicule of others, but also gave up the idea of confiding his inner negative emotions to his parents or even seeking help.
This situation lasted for four or five years. The ridicule of others and the simplicity and rudeness of his father made Wang Qianshan's inner anger suppressed for four or five years.
At such a young age, he should not be able to suppress so much anger for so long in his small body and young mind. This is the responsibility of Wang Wenhui and his wife, as well as the responsibility of teachers and classmates, and the responsibility of everyone.
This kind of anger accumulates over time, and problems are inevitable, it's just a matter of time.
The first time the problem occurred was four or five years later, when he was eleven or twelve years old, in fifth or sixth grade. This should have been a wake-up call to everyone, especially Wang Wenhui. But no one took it seriously. At best, they just thought that "children shouldn't be so harsh when fighting" and then dealt with it hastily.
Perhaps the nickname "Uneven Earth" was too unconventional, which made Wang Qianshan extremely angry. And as he gets older, let him know that there is another way to solve problems in this world, called "violence". Under the influence of multiple factors, the quantitative change of anger finally triggered a small qualitative change.
If an eleven or twelve-year-old child accidentally breaks the other person's leg during a fight with his peers, it is not something to be alarmed about.
But Wang Qianshan did this deliberately and claimed that "I just wanted to beat him into a cripple." This obviously went beyond the scope of "teaching" or "retaliation" and had the meaning of venting anger.
The way of venting anger by "breaking someone's legs", especially Wang Qianshan's "deliberate action", most likely made Wang Wenhui think that Wang Qianshan had "such a vicious mind and such a heavy attack" at such a young age, so of course he had to treat such a "vicious person" The seedlings of ideas and ruthless behavior were strangled to death in their infancy.
Wang Wenhui only saw the appearance of being "heavy-handed", but did not realize the essential problem behind this appearance, namely: Wang Qianshan lacked psychological counseling.
Therefore, in response to the superficial problem, Wang Wenhui came up with a method of "treating the head for a headache and the foot for a sore foot", which treats the symptoms but not the root cause. Moreover, this method still has the familiar "Wang Wenhui flavor" and is very characteristic of the army.
Traditional Chinese medicine pays most attention to systemic treatment and the root cause of the disease. Wang Wenhui may be remarkable in his traditional Chinese medicine skills, and he has many systematic methods for treating diseases and saving lives, but he really failed in educating Wang Qianshan.
In the view of Wang Wenhui, who has a strong heart, it's just a solitary confinement. It's not a big deal. Isn't that how we used to deal with soldiers who were fighting in the army? The effect was quite good and there was nothing wrong with him.
But maybe he really didn't regard Wang Qianshan as a cripple, and also ignored that Wang Qianshan was "just a child" at the time. He himself has a strong heart, so he believes that other people, regardless of men, women, old and young, should also have a strong heart. Perhaps, in his opinion, except for life and death, which are important events in life, everything else is unworthy of mention.
Therefore, Wang Wenhui did not realize at all that there was anything wrong with "imprisonment" for Wang Qianshan, or what negative effects and sequelae it would bring.
I don’t care whether the solitary confinement caused Wang Qianshan to develop claustrophobia, but this incident at least made Wang Qianshan afraid to hit others easily when faced with the ridicule of others in the future.
This is really a double-edged sword. While it cured Wang Qianshan's problem of "being too heavy-handed", it also made him lose the "way" to vent his anger. Perhaps, in Wang Qianshan's view, this is the most effective "way of catharsis" he can find.
Wang Wenhui only thinks that Wang Qianshan
"The strike was too heavy", but there was no such thing as "the strike was wrong" or "the strike cannot be made". Wang Qianshan ignored such crucial information.
Obviously, Wang Wenhui is not opposed to "violence". He is only opposed to "excessive violence" or "unjustified violence."
Carrying the euphemistic yet insulting nickname "Wang Zhijian", Wang Qianshan suppressed various negative emotions such as inferiority, pain, and anger, and lived calmly for another five or six years. It can be said that it is difficult to move forward with a heavy burden. Because he still has a great ambition - to rely on traditional Chinese medicine to cure his lameness. This made him choose to swallow all negative emotions alive.
But Wang Wenhui tore his "ambition of the great swan" to pieces in just a few words, leaving not even the dregs left.
The fact that Wang Qianshan was not allowed to go to college transformed the large amount of negative emotions accumulated in Wang Wenhui's heart, turning him into a "smart landmine" and setting up Wang Wenhui and his wife as "detonators".
Because in Wang Qianshan's eyes, the culprit who made him live such a "humiliating" life was ultimately his parents, especially Wang Wenhui.
The quiet Zhang Xiuwen may have played a buffering role in a short period of time, but in the end he was unable to untie Wang Qianshan's knot and dismantle this "landmine." Moreover, she had no idea that the person who had been sleeping with her for six years would be a "landmine".
