Chapter 0320: The Old Man's Last Words
Although Cui Ning was allowed to do without a written report, he still told Mr. Zhuge about going to another plane, but as for the specific situation of that plane, Cui Ning said that he was also given a gag order and could not confide in him.
But Cui Ning told Mr. Zhuge and Jiang Lao that in this world or the Three Realms, the earth civilization is not the only civilization, but other civilizations belong to other planes, this concept still makes the two seniors very interested, but as for how to shuttle between planes and how to enter the Ascending Immortal Pool, Cui Ning still made reservations, after all, once it is entered into the archives, it will have to bear the corresponding follow-up investigation or something, which Cui Ning is very unwilling to face.
Three hours later, Cui Ning was walking down the streets of Longdu.
In the winter of Longdu, at nine o'clock in the evening, there is already some bleak taste, although it is busy, but Cui Ning always thinks of the endless grassland, golden lotus and ginseng fruit trees in his heart, and he always feels that it is a dream, or like his hometown, no matter how far apart, there is always a faint longing.
After thinking about it for a long time, about things in the distance, I remembered that not long ago, Xiang Yuzhen said goodbye to herself, this time it was a real goodbye, in the future, I and Xiang Yuzhen will no longer be boyfriend and girlfriend, and I don't even know if we can meet, and Xiang Yuzhen is a young and lovely girl, maybe she will soon have a new boyfriend, take care of her and love her, have her own home, and will never call herself "Brother Cui Ning" again.
Cui Ning is not a sentimental person, but he has not had many friends since he was a child, except for Dongfang Shuai, almost all of his friends have met after coming to Longdu, including Xiang Yuzhen, Cui Ning thought, even if he can't be a boyfriend and girlfriend, he will treat Xiang Yuzhen as a sister, but now it seems that his brother and sister can't do it, fortunately, they are not enemies, just strangers.
Cui Ning has left this world several times, but he still regards this world as his home, and still loves this "lower civilization" and "lower plane" mortal dust, although Cui Ning believes that this world is really not the end of life, but whether it is the rules of the plane or because of nature, Cui Ning has some attachment to this world.
Cui Ning didn't want to take the car, and he was not in a hurry to go home, he wanted to take a walk on the street, because Cui Ning was not afraid of the cold, so he didn't wear many clothes, so from the perspective of a bystander, a young man, in the winter night, is inevitably a little lonely and lonely.
At this time, Cui Ning's mobile phone suddenly rang:
"Okay, I'll be there soon".
Cui Ning immediately took a taxi to a hospital in Chongwen District and saw the dying old man Jin.
Old Man Jin lost a lot of weight, his face was almost out of phase, but his expression was still a little smiling, and then he was lying on the hospital bed, and when he saw Cui Ning coming in, he even stretched out his hand and took Cui Ning's hand.
"How's it going?" Cui Ning asked Jin Yutang and his lover.
"The doctor said that it is a miracle to live until now, I have been calling you for the past few days, and today I finally got through" Jin Yutang said:
"The old man kept talking to you, saying that he wanted to see you before leaving, and the hospital issued a critical illness notice several times, but the old man survived again."
"Xiao Cui, it's good that you're here" Old Man Jin's voice was already very subtle, but he could still hear it clearly:
"It's good to see you, I will go with peace of mind when I see you, you must collect the things I gave you, don't sell them, don't sell them."
"Don't worry, old man, you can live for a few more years" Cui Ning saw an old man who trusted and was so friendly to him, and he couldn't help but feel a little ashamed when he saw an old man who hadn't come over to see him recently:
"You look good, don't think too much."
"Lord Yama misses me" Old Man Jin smiled weakly, "Xiao Cui, it's good to be young, haven't you been busy lately?"
"Yes, I'm busy, I've been abroad a few times, and I haven't come to see you, so forgive me," he replied.
"Look at what I'm doing, an old man, there's nothing to look at," said the old man Jin, "I heard that you just came back from a business trip, don't you come to see me?"
As he spoke, Old Man Jin said to the other sons and daughters:
"You all go out, I'll have a few words with Xiao Cui."
Jin Yutang looked at his wife, several people looked at each other, nodded, and slowly exited the ward, leaving only the old man and Cui Ning in the ward.
Old Man Jin used strength, perhaps the last bit of strength in his life, to hold Cui Ning's hand and said:
"Xiao Cui, I know that you are not an ordinary person, ordinary people can't bear my dragon bed, according to experts, that dragon bed is very resentful, but the person who can bear it is definitely not a mortal.
I don't have anything to do in my life, I don't even have any worries, the children are also filial, and they are all good, the only thing I can't put down is my gadgets, don't underestimate them, they are all treasures left by our ancestors.
But I'll rest assured that I'll treasure them well, and you've got a room for them, and you're not thinking about selling them, so I know I'm looking for the right person.
Xiao Cui, in fact, I have been to your company, but you have not been there twice, and the people in the company say that they have been out on a business trip.
I'm actually, it's okay, I just want to talk to you, and then, let you not be so busy, people live in this life, what is the most precious thing in the world, except for our cheap life, that is, someone thinks about you, someone loves you.
In my life, when I was young, I was also an amorous teenager, and I also saw a lot of scenery in the world, you know, at that time it was still the Republic of China, or the so-called old society, I have actually been to many places, Jincheng, Hucheng, including Jicheng in your Dongshan Province, oops, the spring water there is so sweet.
I have also seen a lot of masters, at that time, the masters were really masters, not for fame and fortune, and then they were bent on serving the country and the people, or with compassion, do you know Master Li Shutong? If you take a closer look at the things I gave, there are the words of Master Li Shutong in them, and the things that gave me, small things, you look for them, they are all in it.
When I was young, I didn't know what was the most precious, every day, except for dreaming of eating enough, I had nothing to do, and the memories of war and hunger were very deep, but do you know what memories are deeper?
In the past few days, I seem to have returned to my youth in a daze, dreaming of the people I have met, the people I have loved, and the days I have spent together. It turns out that love is the last thought in life, not hate, nor poverty and wandering......
When I was young, I never dreamed that I would get on such a good car to visit Longdu, you let your driver take me to see so many good places, and invited me to eat and buy me nutritious products, although you are busy, but I know that you have me in your heart, you are a good boy.
Also, Xiao Cui, I heard that you are single, and I have been thinking about introducing you to a girlfriend, and then let Jin Yutang and them keep an eye on you, in this life, you are not a god or a sage, you must have someone who accompanies you with each other, and a lifetime can be considered complete.
My wife, he left me early, when he left, he told me to live well, and then, when I went to see her, tell her that I was alive and well, you see, I am going to see her, I have lived really well in my life, and in the end, I have been an emperor for a decade or two, do you think it can be bad?
Xiao Cui, you want to find someone who loves you, someone you love, live well, no matter how busy and tired you are, there is a light when you get home, that's home, I've been to your home, you have renovated such a good house, you have been alone, that's not called home. It's a house.
Also, Xiao Cui, remember to eat on time, don't stay up late, don't work too hard, don't do things that violate your conscience, sleep comfortably when you dream, it's better than anything else."
As he spoke, Old Man Jin closed his eyes, took a few breaths, and held Cui Ning's hand, unwilling to let go for a long time.
"Old man, I know what you said" Cui Ning said, "You are only eighty years old, in fact, you can live a few more years, why is it like confessing your last words?"
"Hehe, I know my own physical condition, Xiao Cui, do you think death is terrible at your age, let me tell you, it's not terrible at all, really, I think I'll be able to see my wife soon, in fact, I'm still looking forward to it."
Xiao Cui, I will watch you from the sky, and one more thing is to remember, no matter how much suffering you encounter, you have to tell yourself, it's no big deal, grit your teeth, walk over, it's fine, do you understand?"
"Understood, old man" Although Cui Ning has always been relatively indifferent, he still feels the rapid decline of Old Man Jin's life, because Old Man Jin's qi and blood index is still declining from 30 to 20 to 10, and it is Cui Ning who wants to give the old man a little of his own blood, but the elf in his body warns himself that he is not allowed to use these cheating methods, especially the matter of changing people's lifespan, which is absolutely impossible.
In addition, Old Man Jin no longer has the idea of living, and when he finally saw Cui Ning, he just relied on the last bit of obsession in life, so death is really not so terrible, and Old Man Jin said everything that should be said, but he was more calm.
Two hours later, Cui Ning left the hospital, and Mr. Jin walked very peacefully, according to his instructions, buried it in the suburbs, buried it with his wife, and then didn't make a big deal, I hope Cui Ning will go to see him when he has time.
This is the first time Cui Ning has seen Jin Junyu, a very handsome young man with dreams in his eyes, but Cui Ning, as an outsider, left the hospital after saying a few words to Jin Yutang, listening to the cry of the old man's family, Cui Ning's mood was also a little gloomy.
A life left this world like this, it shouldn't go to the Ascending Immortal Pool, Cui Ning didn't know where he went, the elf in his body said that this is the biggest secret of the Three Realms, and he can't tell Cui Ning, otherwise Cui Ning may have a strange encounter again.
However, Cui Ning felt that Old Man Jin's qi and blood index became zero, and then the energy index was still there, and finally stayed at the number "one", so he knew that after a person died, there was actually a certain amount of energy, but the energy was different.
This is a topic that requires a lot of data, Cui Ning didn't want to do too much research, and walked back on the street, thinking about some of the words of Old Man Jin, and Xiang Yuzhen who left, and couldn't help but have some regrets, maybe he should keep Xiang Yuzhen?
Why didn't you keep it? Cui Ning thought that in the land of immortals, when Zhenyuan Daxian said "sweetheart", the first thing Cui Ning thought of was not Xiang Yuzhen, but Su Ruoqing, hey, he couldn't deceive himself in his heart, maybe breaking up with Xiang Yuzhen was fate, because even if Xiang Yuzhen was retained, if there were similar things in the future, it would only make Aunt Huang and Uncle Xiang complain more about themselves.
Okay, then say goodbye to yesterday, Cui Ning said to himself, then looked at the sky and suddenly fell with a light snow, and hurriedly took a taxi home.
Walking downstairs, Cui Ning couldn't help but be stunned, he clearly remembered that the lights were turned off, why did the room still seem to be lit?
