Chapter 167: Three Months of Life
The two pills fell into his abdomen, and he immediately felt like his entire stomach was on fire. Sweating profusely, the previous blood loss and the cold brought by the night breeze are gone. Clutching my chest and clutching my stomach, I curled up on the ground, unable to get up for a long time.
"That's right. ”
The middle-aged man said coldly next to me, and then punched me in the face, and I was unlucky to pass out for the second time.
This time the coma must have been long, as it felt as if I had been locked up in a confinement cell for twelve hours. Shaking his head, he saw that he was lying in a dark room, and there was a comfortable bed underneath him.
After fumbling around, I couldn't find the lampholder switch, and I was about to get up, but the door on the opposite side had been opened. A light came in, followed by the man in the cap. He had a thermos in his hand and a lunch box.
When I saw him enter the door, I immediately became alert and looked at him without saying a word. He glanced at me and opened his hand, reached out and pulled the light switch, and the room immediately lit up. Looking around, it was a small room, smaller than a normal guest house, with a bed, a cupboard, and a pair of tables and chairs.
The man put down the thermos and lunch box, then pulled over a chair and sat down across from me. After lighting a cigarette, he said, "How do you feel?"
I frowned, stared at him, and asked, "Who are you?"
He didn't speak, I looked down at my body, the places with external injuries were basically bandaged, and the bandaging technique was very good, it looked like an expert. The qi in my body has returned to the dantian, and there is no sign of disorder, and I did not try to mobilize the qi again, perhaps because I am a little worried in my heart.
"What did you give me?"
I asked.
"Some of the pills I have refined myself are good for the body, and you should be fine when you look at them. ”
The man spoke.
"Who the hell are you, and why did you save me?"
I then asked.
"The order from above is for me to meet you in the city, but yesterday evening I received a call from above, saying that I should meet you. So I rushed over, and I didn't expect to see you lying on the ground. "When I heard him say this, my first reaction was the phone call to the prison, he should be the person who said on the phone that he would meet me, but I didn't expect to save my life because of this.
"What kind of organization are you? I won't do anything that is mysterious and violates the law. Ahem......"
Talking so fast that I couldn't help but cough a few times.
"You can rest assured at this point, we are not spies or enemy agents, but we can't tell you the name of this yamen for the time being, if the boss decides to admit you in one day, they will naturally tell the truth. He took a drag on his cigarette as he spoke, and then continued, "My name is Zhong Yong, and I am more than twenty years older than you." Boy, do you know you're going to kill yourself?"
I was stunned for a moment, my eyes darkened suddenly, and after laughing miserably, I said, "I know, how can I not know? I reversed my luck four times, and I shouldn't live long." ”
"Three months. ”
Zhong Yong stretched out three fingers, and although I had expected the date he said, his heart was still tight.
"I look at your face, feel your pulse, check your breath, and if I'm not mistaken, you have three months to live. But the date is not particularly accurate, just a range, you may die in two and a half months, you may die in three and a half months, but you will not live in four months. ”
Zhong Yong's words made my face even worse, and after thinking about it, he said, "I know, and I'm already mentally prepared." ”
"But our boss can heal you. ”
All his mental preparations were suddenly shattered after his words, and he raised his head sharply to stare at him, speechless for a moment of astonishment. Zhong Yong held the cigarette, crossed his legs, and said very calmly: "I didn't lie to you, and there is no need to lie to you, this little ghost, our boss is proficient in medicine, and there were people with similar diseases to you in the early years, and our boss was cured like him." So, he can heal you. ”
I swallowed dryly, pursed my lips, and tried to ask but didn't.
"I know what you're asking, you're lucky that someone up there values you. This is an opportunity for you to help us do things, and become a boss who will naturally value you more and will definitely cure your illness. But you don't have many opportunities to perform, only three months. I don't mean much by this, I just want to remind you that you don't have much time to give, and you'd better not play any tricks with us. ”
I have just come into contact with Zhong Yong, and it doesn't seem like a lie to see him with a serious face, but there are too many people in this world who are righteous on the surface but filthy in secret. Zhong Yong: I haven't been in contact for a long time, so I can't believe too much. But what he said may be true, or at least I hope it is.
"Let's have a bite to eat. ”
He handed over the lunch box, and after I took it, he said, "It doesn't taste very good, but it's definitely good for your body, and I've informed your friends to ask them to wait for you at home." We'll be back in the city in a few days. Do you have any discoveries about the monkey we're going to catch?"
I lowered my head and opened the lunch box, and when the lid of the tin box was opened, it turned out to be black Chinese herbs, mixed with some insects. I lost my appetite for it, and when I heard him speak, I said, "Since you asked me about the monkeys, it seems that you already know that there is something wrong with the circus." I found a huge ape of the earth beast type in the circus, and if I was not misjudged, it was supposed to be a great ape earth beast raised by a woman. Before, there was an ape havoc incident in Jiangsu, and fled into Shanghai, the two are not the same, the ape and earth beast that made a fuss should be a monkey, a subspecies of monkey spirit. ”
"Oh, we basically know all the clues. Our intelligence officers above are also investigating. If the circus has nothing to do with the monkeys, then we'll put that line aside. Okay, you eat first, I'll go out and make a call. By the way, you'd better eat everything I gave you, it can speed up the recovery of your body, slow down the damage to your body after the breath riot, and to put it simply, let you die a little slower. Of course you can skip it, you're not afraid of death anyway. ”
After he finished speaking, he walked out with a cigarette in his mouth, I looked down at the bugs in the lunch box in front of me, frowned, and finally closed my eyes and swallowed them all in my stomach......
After a three-day rest in Pujin Town, we set off for our return to the city. Zhong Yong drove a small old pickup truck, and I sat in the passenger seat, he was always smoking, and he looked like he was very addicted.
"I want to ask, why did your organization take a fancy to me? I mean, a person like me, first, is not very famous, second, not much ability, not well-known in the circle, is a newcomer who has just entered the industry. How can he be?"
I asked strangely, in fact, many newcomers in the industry have become dead cannon fodder after being used by the elderly, I don't want others to be victims, I still have to ask.
"How do I know. Unexpectedly, Zhong Yong replied simply, "We don't ask much about the things decided by the above, in fact, I am also very curious, why the upper authorities are looking for such a little ghost as you to help me." ”
That sounded true, and I pursed my lips and didn't say anything more.
"Brother Zhong, your meal is also medicine, it's amazing, I recovered well in three days. The wounds were all scabbed. ”
After entering the city, I smiled and said awkwardly.
"Well, although I don't have the medical skills of our boss, but I have also studied Chinese medicine for more than ten years, and now people always think that Western medicine is better, in fact, there are many aspects of our Chinese medicine that are better than Western medicine. I will prescribe the recipe to you, and when you go back, you will continue to eat according to this recipe, and temporarily quit meat, but you can drink alcohol, and my recipe is more effective with pure liquor. ”
The car stopped at the intersection, he pointed to the front and said, "I live in the house with three units in front of me, and I will come to you and your people in a few days." ”
I nodded, got out of the car, and watched the little pickup drive away, a little dazed in the sun. I didn't see a figure when I looked around, and when I was about to walk forward, a voice suddenly came from the side: "Hey, what a coincidence, I ran into it." ”
When I looked back, I saw a handsome smile and Hugo standing behind me. “
