Marvel: I have a serious mental illness

Chapter 405: Artificial Kryptonite

"Peter, we can't order others what to do? Because that is their right and freedom... But, what can we order ourselves to do? Because it is also our right and freedom."

Uncle Ben's voice was very soft, but his tone was not relaxed, and even a bit heavy.

Uncle Ben is already very old.

He doesn’t know which one will come first, tomorrow or the accident?

Therefore.

He always wants to teach Peter Parker all the principles of life he has learned.

Uncle Ben knows that his thoughts are old and decadent, and he knows that the principles of life he has understood are not perfect.

He also knows that he is not a successful person. His life has nothing to do with success, and he has even been entangled with failure.

If you look at it this way, the failed life principle seems to have no value and meaning...

But that's not the case.

Failure does not mean failure, and failure should not be completely denied.

Because mediocrity can be considered a kind of failure.

Uncle Ben's failure cannot make Peter Parker successful, it can only make him a mediocre person.

A mediocre person may not shine, may not be respected, or may not enjoy a rich life.

But again...

He will not cause any damage to this world.

He will not hurt others wantonly, and he will not do bad things.

He is silent, he is taciturn, he abides by morals and laws, and he is self-restrained.

He seems to be the cornerstone at the bottom that no one wants to be.

But no one can deny the importance of cornerstones.

Because it is the mediocrity of the foundation stone that allows the building to be built higher and higher until it reaches the sky.

The word mediocrity is the last bottom line that Uncle Ben has set for Peter Parker, and it is the simple values that Uncle Ben has established for Peter Parker.

Mediocrity is never shameful.

Uncle Ben does not force Peter Parker to become a useful person to society, but he sincerely hopes that Peter Parker can become a harmless person to society.

Of course.

What Uncle Ben hopes more is that Peter Parker can become a useful person to society.

However, his age does not ensure that he will be able to see that day coming.

Therefore, he would choose to settle for the next best thing.

Listening to Uncle Ben's teachings, a warm smile appeared on Peter Parker's face. He raised his hand, looked at Uncle Ben, and said very gently: "Uncle Ben, I promise you, I will never be like that.

As a human being, I will abide by the law, restrain myself, and become a morally noble person."

"Uncle Ben, don't worry, Peter Parker will always be Peter Parker, he won't change."

"If I have the ability, I will definitely use my ability to help those in need... because with greater ability comes greater responsibility."

Peter Parker said this heavy oath in a very relaxed tone.

This time, he took the initiative to say the phrase "The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility" and understood this truth.

Instead of Uncle Ben taking the initiative to say it, and using death to teach him the last lesson in his life.

This time, Uncle Ben doesn’t need to die.

This time, he will not regret it, nor will he be unable to sleep in pain at midnight.

This time, he will not fall into confusion and confusion because of some failures, some criticisms, or some unacceptable truths. He will be like a helpless child who can only secretly wipe his tears in the corner.
This time, he will be happy, joyful, and happy.

Because his relatives are still there, and the people important to him are still there, and they will always be there.

It was the dream that lasted for many days that allowed Peter Parker to change like this.

In those dreams that lasted for many days, he lived the life of Spider-Man, which was a very painful life.

In that painful life, he had no Mr. Jake, no Uncle Ben, no Aunt May, no Stark, no Mary Jane, no Gwen, no Ned...

He lost everything he held dear.

Family, friendship, love...all left him.

He is a hero in people's hearts.

But he is also a failed man.

Fortunately, it was just a bizarre dream.

Peter Parker gently clenched his fists. He would never lose everything this time, and he would never allow what happened in his dream to happen again.

He wants to become a happy Spider-Man.

So, the first thing to do is to save Uncle Ben.

He will become the kind of person Uncle Ben wants to be, so that Uncle Ben will not have to lose his life trying to teach him.

"With great power comes great responsibility..." Listening to Peter Parker's words, Uncle Ben opened his eyes wide and couldn't help but repeat it.

He is very surprised now. He is surprised that Peter Parker can understand such a truth, and he is happy that Peter Parker can understand such a truth.

Uncle Ben couldn't help but smile.

He was overjoyed, he had never been so happy as he was today.

Peter, this kid has really grown up...

He fulfilled the responsibility of an uncle, he fulfilled the responsibility of a brother, and he fulfilled the responsibility of a guardian.

Not only did he raise his nephew to adulthood, he also taught him to become a good person with high moral character, giving him a good education in all aspects, both physically and mentally.

Even if he dies one day, he can face his brother calmly.

"Peter, you have really grown up, and uncle is really happy..." Uncle Ben gave Peter Parker a thumbs up and praised loudly.

"Uncle Ben, you can no longer treat me like a child. I am about to graduate from high school and will soon become a college student. I can already take care of myself...Uncle Ben, now, you can too

Take a good rest, give yourself a holiday, do whatever you want, and enjoy your freedom..." Peter Parker raised his eyebrows, with a smile on his lips.

"Hey, Peter, I'm not a bad old man who can't do anything. I have endless energy in my body now, and I have to buy all kinds of gifts for your Aunt May... This year, I'm working hard

In half a year, buy a new second-hand car and take your Aunt Mei out for a trip. She really wants to go to Niagara Falls. This is her dream..." Uncle Ben stretched out and couldn't help but twitching his eyebrows. He now

I'm really happy.

"Uncle Ben, I have money, I can buy you a car..." Peter Parker said with a smile.

Listening to Peter Parker's words, Uncle Ben's smile disappeared and his expression became serious.

He looked into Peter Parker's eyes and said in a deep voice: "Peter, did you earn your money yourself?"

"No, that's not... you didn't earn your money yourself. Your godfather gave you the money. You can't use this money to fulfill your filial piety, because it's not your money!"<

/p>

When Peter Parker heard this, he frowned and asked in confusion: "Uncle Ben, why? Although this is money given to me by Jake's godfather, he said I can use it as I please."

"This money already belongs to me. If I use this money to buy you a car, what's the problem?"

"Even if godfather Jake knew about it, he wouldn't say anything... He would even praise me and be happy for my behavior..."

"We have become a family, so why should we be so clearly distinguished? What's the point?"

After hearing this, Uncle Ben sighed softly and said calmly: "Peter, there are some things that are difficult to explain to you. In short, I am doing it for your own good."

"Peter, my suggestion is that you not only don't touch the money, but you even return it to Mr. Jake."

"Peter, if you don't pay it back, sooner or later you will lose yourself..."

"Oh, Uncle Ben, I really don't understand why you have such thoughts? Lose yourself? Am I a person who is blind to money?" Peter Parker stood up suddenly, he was a little sullen, he felt that Uncle Ben was really

He is too stubborn and can't communicate with him.

"Peter, that's not what I meant. I just hope you don't accept too much good, that will become your weakness..."

"Uncle Ben, that's enough! I don't want to hear these things anymore! I know very well what kind of person I will be in the future, and I also know very well what kind of things I am doing now..."

"Huh..."

Peter Parker breathed a sigh of relief, took big steps, and walked out of the house.

Uncle Ben looked at the scene in front of him in astonishment, with a wry smile on his lips.

"Oh, Ben, when did Peter's temper become so bad? Oh, I can't understand it. One second you two were close uncles and nephews, and the next second you two became tit-for-tat.

The enemy..." Aunt Mei put down the magazine in her hand, her eyes widened and full of doubts. She was a little confused.

She just read the entertainment tabloids seriously for a while, and the uncle and nephew became like this.

"Mei, adolescent children are always like this... one second they are friendly, and the next second they are angry, this is very common... Mei, did I say something too much just now?" Uncle Ben frowned and whispered softly.

Asked.

"Sorry, Ben, I didn't listen to the exchange between the two of you...because today's entertainment tabloid is really attractive. It said that our mayor has been replaced, and the handover is now underway. In two days

It will be announced soon, it’s really hard to imagine..." Aunt Mei curled her lips and raised the entertainment tabloid in her hand.

"Hey, Mei, most of the content above is false...who would believe entertainment tabloids?" Uncle Ben said with a smile.

"Ben, sometimes what you say is really hurtful. I believe in the entertainment tabloids! It seems you should really reflect on it. Peter has always been a good boy, he is very gentle, and he never gets angry.

, this must be your problem..." Aunt Mei rolled her eyes, took the entertainment tabloid in her hand, walked straight into the bedroom, and then slammed the door.

Uncle Ben was stunned for a moment, stretched out his hand to scratch his head, and murmured in a low voice: "Is it really my problem? Am I too sensitive? Are all my worries unnecessary?"

"It seems that I have to find another opportunity to have a good chat with Peter. Alas, I really didn't mean that he was greedy for money. Why didn't this kid just listen to me and finish my sentence?"

"Peter, I just don't want you to be too dependent on Mr. Jake. If you spend his money today, you will want his help tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow..."

"Human desire is like rolling stones on a high mountain. Once it starts, it can never be stopped. Unless...these stones are originally at the bottom of the mountain."
