Chapter 123: Lost Soul
Riding in the car of the nephew of the Fakong Master, Lian Ge and the others went down the mountain and approached Ge Jiren's Hanging Pot Hall.
Along the way, Lian Ge stared at the scene passing by the window, and didn't say much, and Fakong and Ge Jiren's grandson naturally didn't make much noise.
Inside, it was relatively quiet.
After a few moments,
The car carrying Lian Ge and others drove into a street.
On both sides of the street, the mottled marks on the storefronts show the years that this street has passed.
“...... This is it. ”
Ge Jiren sat up straight and said loudly.
Then, the car stopped again.
Lian Ge and the others got out of the car one after another.
After a slight pause, Lian Ge glanced at the hanging pot hall in front of him, this is an older building, the wall on this side of the street is wooden, and there are two wooden pillars erected on both sides of the door at the eaves.
The red lacquer on the wooden pillars has long since faded, the scratches are pitted, and some of the traces left by the years are clearly visible.
The plaque hanging on the door frame is engraved with the words 'Hanging Pot Hall'.
At this moment, the door of the hanging pot hall was open, and several old people were sitting in the room, chatting and laughing.
Seeing Ge Jiren's grandson come back, several old people got up one after another and greeted him.
"Doctor Ge, I don't know how my waist has been in the past few days, and it hurts a little, so I have to bother you to take a look......
"Wait a minute. Ge Jiren nodded in response, then turned back to Lian Ge and the others and said,
"Brother Lian, Master Fakong, you sit down first, and I'll show these people and we'll talk. ”
"Okay, Dr. Ge, you're busy. Lian Ge retracted his gaze, stepped into the Hanging Pot Hall, and nodded in response.
Fakong naturally nodded and stepped into the Hanging Pot Hall.
"Chengde, go pour two cups of tea. ”
After leading Lian Ge to sit down, Ge Jiren turned his head again and shouted in the direction of the medicine cabinet on the side of the medicine hall.
Lian Ge and Fakong also followed Ge Jiren's gaze and looked in that direction.
In front of the medicine cabinet, there was a man in his thirties, with no expression on his face, staring blankly at the ground in front of him.
Even when Ge Jiren's words fell, there was no reaction.
"Chengde, go pour two cups of tea. ”
Ge Jiren took the trouble to shout again,
This time, the man sitting at the medicine cabinet finally had some reaction, and slowly turned his head to look at Ge Jiren.
After a few seconds of pause, he stood up without saying anything and walked towards the water dispenser in the corner of the room.
Seeing this, Ge Jiren sighed slightly,
"Tianshou, go help your dad. ”
"Good. ”
In response, Ge Tianshou ran over, while Ge Jiren turned his head and said sorry to Lian Ge and the others.
"I'm sorry to make you laugh. ”
Hearing this, Lian Ge shook his head slightly and looked towards the water dispenser.
I saw that after the man called Chengde by Ge Jiren walked to the water dispenser, he was stunned again, just looked at the water dispenser in a daze, raised his right hand slightly, and then drooped down again.
And at this time, Ge Tianshou had already run over,
Standing next to the man, he opened the door of the water dispenser and said while holding the man's hand
"I'll teach you, if you want to get water, open the door of the water dispenser first, like this......"
In the medicine hall, Ge Tianshou's somewhat crisp voice resounded,
"And then, you need to take a paper cup out, like this...... Come, take the paper cup with your left hand. ”
Ge Tianshou said, dragged his father's left hand, and put the paper cup on his father's hand,
"Because we want to make tea, we need to put tea in it after taking the cup......"
The man stared at Ge Tianshou in a daze, and according to Ge Tianshou's words, he did it step by step.
"Very well done, the tea has been poured well......"
There was some joy in Ge Tianshou's tone, perhaps because he felt the change in Ge Tianshou's tone, and a smile appeared on the man's stunned face.
"In the end, we just need to turn on the switch of the water dispenser and pour the water, like this, put the water cup under the water outlet, and then press the switch with the other hand......"
Ge Tianshou said as he took his father's hand and followed the hot water in the water dispenser.
suddenly
Maybe the hot water was too hot, and the man's hand holding the paper cup suddenly shrank back,
In an instant, hot water splashed on Ge Tianshou's hand.
Ge Tianshou couldn't help but take his hand back, his expression was a little painful, but he couldn't bear it and exhale in pain.
And the man looked at Ge Tianshou, the expression on his stunned face also changed a little, his eyes showed pain, and his right hand was slightly raised, but he immediately put it down.
“...... It's okay, let's try again. ”
Ge Tianshou blew a few breaths on the back of his reddened hand, then smiled at his father.
......
"Tianshou, are you okay?"
"It's okay, it's okay......"
"Doctor Ge, it's been so long, Chengde is still like this?" The old man with back pain pulled up the clothes on his waist and looked at the two people next to the water dispenser, and said loudly.
Hearing this, Ge Jiren didn't say anything, just shook his head.
......
On the side, hearing the voice of the old man on the side, Lian Ge looked back, and then turned his gaze to the two people next to the water dispenser.
Looking at Ge Tianshou's father, Ge Chengde's sluggish movements and reactions, Lian Ge slightly blank his eyes,
"Benefactor, this is ...... Lose your soul. ”
On the side, Fakong, who was also watching the scene next to the water dispenser, hesitated a little and said to Lian Ge.
Hearing this, Lian Ge turned his head to look at Fakong and nodded.
Retracting his gaze, Lian Ge continued to look at Ge Chengde next to the water dispenser.
Under the sky, Lian Ge could clearly see that in Ge Chengde's body, the seven spirits were still there, but two of the three souls were missing.
......
"Yay, it worked!"
Next to the water dispenser, Ge Tianshou's cheers rang out.
Ge Chengde held two paper cups full of hot water in his left and right hands, looking at the excited Ge Tianshou, a smile also appeared on his sluggish and stunned face.
"Okay, now that the tea has been picked up, we just need to bring the water to the guests, it's very simple, just like I used to teach you to take things......
Ge Tianshou smiled and said to his father.
“...... Now, with these two glasses of water in hand, we slowly walk towards the guests...... Don't be in a hurry, we can go slower. ”
Ge Tianshou held his hands weakly, maintaining the same movement as carrying water, and walked slowly beside his father.
And Ge Chengde looked at Ge Tianshou's movements, and was stunned for a long time before finally slowly opening his legs.
"Well, yes, that's it......"
Ge Tianshou looked at his father beside him, with a smile on his face, and walked towards Lian Ge and Fakong step by step.
His father, Ge Chengde, also moved his steps step by step, sluggish and stunned, and walked towards Lian Ge and Fakong.
......
Seeing Ge Tianshou and Ge Chengde approaching, Lian Ge and Fakong stood up one after another.
"That's it, all right, now just put the tea on the table. ”
Ge Tianshou looked at his father and said with some anxiety.
And Ge Chengde also followed Ge Tianshou's movements and slowly put the water cup on the table.
And at this moment, Ge Chengde's hand trembled slightly, and his hand opened a little unconsciously,
In an instant, two water glasses fell towards the table.
Seeing this, Lian Ge directly stretched out his hand and steadily caught the two cups of tea.
Glancing at the inside of the palms of Ge Chengde's two hands, the scalded red skin, Lian Ge paused and withdrew his gaze.
"Thank you. ”
Handing one of the cups of tea to Fakong, Lian Ge picked up the water cup, took a sip, smiled slightly, looked at Ge Chengde and said.
When Ge Chengde heard this, he was still stunned and didn't react.
“...... It's successful, Dad, you've succeeded!" On the side, Ge Tianshou couldn't help but cheer again.
Hearing Ge Tianshou's voice, Ge Chengde turned his head sluggishly, looked at Ge Tianshou, and smiled again on his face in a daze. His right hand, which trembled a little, was raised slightly again.
