Lin Mo knew that he had nothing to do with the merchant for the time being.

You can't kill the opponent, because then little Jie Xi will be finished.

Beating him up and making him suffer is the only thing he can do at the moment.

But this matter is definitely not over yet. Lin Mo has to find other ways to rescue Xiao Jiexi's personality.

When he started just now, Lin Mo secretly let a ghost hide in the shadow of the businessman. The ghost was mentally ill. Although he was powerful, his ability to perceive ghosts was not strong.

In this way, you can lock the merchant's location and find out what the other party has done.

Lin Mo was making a dangerous move.

He had to figure out some things first.

One more thing, he had to calm down. He didn't want to see the businessman now, otherwise Lin Mo was afraid that he wouldn't be able to resist killing him.

Ask Nie Hong and Rabbit, how they were kidnapped, where they were during this time, and what happened.

Nie Hong and Rabbit both gave the same answer to this matter.

"We've been stuck in a house."

"Other than being boring, everything else is fine."

Lin Mo nodded.

The businessman obviously didn't care about the two of them. In other words, the businessman had tricked him before just so that he could bring him back into the lunatic asylum.

Seems simple.

But the businessman must have other plans behind this.

Lin Mo felt that he needed to change his tactics.

You can't just listen to these lunatics on everything, you have to investigate in your own way.

So he stopped a patient and asked him directly if he knew the wise man.

The other party replied that he knew.

But I also don’t know where the wise man is.

Lin Mo asked the other party if he had ever seen a wise man, and the other party shook his head.

Several in a row gave the same answer.

This is strange.

Lin Mo remembered that the patient who led him the way before said that the three most famous patients in the 4th Ward were the novelist, God and the wise man.

Everyone has heard of the Wise Man, but no one seems to have seen it. Lin Mo asked at least a dozen patients, but no one has seen the Wise Man.

What about the others.

Someone must have seen the novelist. After all, the queue is so long. Where is God?

Lin Mo began to ask if anyone had seen God.

It's similar to the wise man, everyone knows it, but no one has seen God.

Lin Mo continued to ask, and Nie Hong also went to help.

Finally, when asking a silent man hiding in a corner, Lin Mo got a different answer.

The place where the other party was staying was very remote, there were no other patients around, and this person was not wearing a hospital gown, but a shirt. His expression was a little dull, and he was incompatible with the crying and laughing patients around him.

Lin Mo asked him if he had ever heard of a wise man, and the other person shook his head; as for God, he still shook his head.

At this time, Lin Mo noticed that the other party was holding a piece of paper with a picture of a woman on it. The painting was good. When he discovered this person just now, the other party had been staring at this painting.

"Lovesick?" Lin Mo guessed.

The man's reaction was a little extreme.

"I'm not sick. I'm not a mental patient at all, let alone a lunatic. Someone took me into this place for no reason. Damn it, my life is completely ruined. I would have a happy family and my own life.

Life."

The man muttered to himself.

He said he wasn't crazy, but it looked like he was going crazy.

But Lin Mo was very curious about this person who had never heard of the wise man and asked a few more questions.

I found that this guy was in a similar situation to Nissen, and he was also arrested from outside almost a month ago.

Looking at this person, Lin Mo suddenly realized something.

So he asked the other party where the same group of people who had been arrested were.

The man didn't want to say anything at first, but after Lin Mo's "friendly" plea, he agreed to take Lin Mo to find someone.

After going around and around, he arrived at a dirty corner filled with rubbish and knocked on the door of a ward. Lin Mo saw a group of men and women in the room.

The characteristics of these people are that they don't wear hospital gowns, they don't cry or make noises, and they almost don't have mental fluctuations on their bodies.

If there are no mental fluctuations, then you are not crazy or mentally ill.

Is a normal person.

These people were very wary, and it took Lin Mo some effort to gain a little trust.

So he asked about the wise man.

Most people shook their heads and said they didn't know, and a few said they had heard other patients mention it but had never seen it.

Now Lin Mo had to doubt something.

Do wise men really exist?

This is not Lin Mo's imagination, this is a conjecture based on facts, because he has asked so many people, but no one has actually seen a wise man.

However, the wise man is still such a famous person.

Even though it was difficult to meet him, after asking so many people, at least one person had seen him, but none of them happened to.

What's even weirder is that Lin Mo asked them how they knew the wise man.

No one can answer it.

No one even knows some of the deeds of wise men, which is obviously unreasonable. The reason why celebrities can be called celebrities is because their speech and behavior are different from normal people.

Even if it is passed down by word of mouth, it must rely on some deeds.

Even if it is fabricated, it will help spread your reputation.

But in Ward 4, this rule obviously does not apply. As a result, many patients know about the "wise man" but know almost nothing about other things about the wise man.

Then Lin Mo had to doubt one thing: the wise man in the lunatic asylum might not exist at all.

This is just a character imagined by the patient.

A person who does not exist.

This kind of thing sounds a bit exaggerated, but it actually happened, and there are corresponding examples in the real world.

It is said that someone conducted a social experiment.

The experimenters themselves created a non-existent person, and then began to fabricate some stories about this person and spread them.

The test results surprised many people.

The experimenters did nothing but spread the rumor at the beginning, and the rumor started to snowball, getting bigger and bigger.

There are a lot of discussions on the Internet, and many people have begun to say that they have met this person and even interacted with him, such as eating or discussing.

As a result, such a non-existent person took shape in everyone's mind.

It's as if there really is such a person.

Even if the experimenters finally publicly stated that this was just a social experiment, many people still expressed disbelief, and some even swore that they had met the non-existent person.

Sometimes, people's imagination is very scary.

Reality and illusion sometimes have almost no boundaries in front of imagination.

Lin Mo suspected that the 'wise man' was in a similar situation.

Maybe the wise man does not exist at all, but is just a fictional character.

Lin Mo was also a little dumbfounded when he thought of this possibility.

Then wouldn’t my work have been in vain?

He took the initiative to run into this lunatic asylum, looking for a person who didn't exist at all. For a moment, Lin Mo felt that he was the clown.

"No, I still have to beat up the businessman."

Lin Mo became angry again.

At this time, a man came over and asked Lin Mo if he was a patient.

Lin Mo shook his head.
