I excitedly took Wang Tianyi to a restaurant and asked the boss to serve good wine and food.

Wang Tianyi was wandering outside during this time, although he said that he had friends to take care of him, but his life was definitely not very comfortable. He grabbed the meat and ate it violently, while Wu Gang sat next to him and looked at Wang Tianyi with a full face, and said excitedly: "Brother Tianyi, the scene you just now is really cruel. You're so good, can you teach me a few hands?"

Wang Tianyi glanced at Wu Gang, bit something and said vaguely: "I'm old, and I'm not suitable for practicing martial arts." Learn some martial arts such as karate, taekwondo, judo, and Muay Thai. Once you've learned these four, you're almost done. ”

Wu Gang suddenly turned into a bitter gourd face: "So troublesome?"

"Don't study if you're afraid of hard work. Wang Tianyi said very casually.

I looked at Wu Gang, and this kid already looked hesitant. I waved my hand at him and whispered, "You go out first, I have something to talk to Tianyi." ”

"Good. ”

Wu Gang obediently walked out of the hotel, I sat next to Wang Tianyi, and said softly, "Why did you come back so early?"

"It's a bit of a trouble for him to always stay at a friend's house......," Wang Tianyi said softly, "The house is broken." ”

"Him?"

"Yes, it's broken, the family is ruined. ”

I asked my boss for a bottle of cheap liquor, poured a glass for me and Wang Tianyi, and said softly, "If you want, you can also talk to me." If there's anything I can do to help, I won't be able to shirk it. You don't have to drive today, you can have a drink. ”

Wang Tianyi glanced at me, he picked up the wine glass and took a big sip, and said softly: "It's a lifelong friendship, we used to mix together, and we were so poor at that time." When I was in ninety-four years, I was messing around with him in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. At that time, I was still young, so I was picking up garbage and selling it outside. That year the Great Flood, you know?"

I nodded, "Yes." ”

"We were flooded, and there was only one wooden bed board that could give us a sense of security......," Wang Tianyi recalled the incident back then, with a little sigh on his face, "A wooden board can't support the weight of the two of us, and it can be regarded as a half-floating state." We tiptoe on the plank, our heads breathing outward. The rain is getting heavier and the flood is getting heavier. I said that this will not work, and that if I wait any longer, I will die. There was a house in front of us, and there was a big road in the middle, and the water on the road was flowing fast. I said I wanted to live, so I swam to the roof. ”

"And really swam over?" I asked.

Wang Tianyi nodded and said: "It's scary, no matter how powerful the master is, he looks so fragile in front of nature." At that time, he was bolder than me, and he swam ahead. As soon as he arrived on the road, the whole person was swept down by the current, and his head was drowned several times, and finally he hit a piece of wood, knocking his hand out of his place. I didn't think much of it at the time, so I rushed to him, drank a few sips of water, and when I was choking to death, I finally caught him, and the two of us floated together with a log and into the river. At that time, we were all shivering with cold, there was a downhill slope in front of us, and there was a big river below, and if we fell down, we would definitely die. I said that if I survived, I would be very good in the future. He said that if he survived, he wanted to have a family. ”

When he said this, Wang Tianyi's eyes were a little red, he looked at the wine glass in his hand, and said softly: "Luck is not bad, at that time, the wood was hooked by the steel bars of a building, and we were in the middle of the water, so cold that we couldn't open our eyes." At that time, there was a rescue unit passing by, and there was an old soldier at that time, and I didn't see what rank he was wearing on his shoulder. He asked the troops to go to the rescue first, leaving a few people, tying their waists with ropes, and jumping into the water to save us. I watched this middle-aged man who didn't know how many years he had been in the People's Liberation Army sink into the water several times, and each time I thought he couldn't get up, and he appeared in front of us again. When they came to us, I said save my brother first, and my brother said save me first. In the end, the old soldier was angry and said two little bastards, you are not fucking dead, Lao Tzu will save them together!"

My heart was in awe, Wang Tianyi took another sip and said softly: "He hugged the two of us and let his men in the army pull us to the shore." I drank a lot of water and fell asleep. When I woke up, I saw myself lying on a simple bed, and my brother was lying next to me. The old soldier was also there, and everyone else called him the battalion commander. I saw that his hands were covered in blood, and the paramedics screamed vigorously from the side, only to find that the bone in his right hand was broken and needed to be amputated. At that time, the underwater surge was so strong that when he was about to climb up, he didn't know what hit his hand. At that time, he had no strength, so he first sent my brother up, and then put his head on me and pushed me up. I have lived for so long, and for the first time, I am relieved that the PLA is family. Don't laugh at me, I couldn't help crying, he saw me crying, and yelled at me what are you crying about. I said I cried for you, and he said don't cry, sing a song. I couldn't sing, so he taught me to sing military songs. ”

I poured another cup for Wang Tianyi and said softly, "And then?"

"Honorably discharged, he could have climbed up again, if it weren't for the two of us, he wouldn't have been discharged at this time. My brother is a local, and his whole family died in the flood, leaving him alone. The old soldier hasn't married a wife yet, and after he was discharged from the army, he was alone, and the two lived together, and we recognized him as a godfather together. At that time, we did what we dreamed of, and I said that we were going to make a name for ourselves, and my brother really became a family. The daughter-in-law is not good-looking or ugly, she is a very virtuous girl, the two of them worshiped the old soldiers, and the family lived a plain life. The allowance for the veterans, plus their salaries, is okay. At that time, I drank the wedding wine before leaving, and I was drunk. When I was leaving, the old man told me...... It doesn't matter if you save a good guy or a bad guy, you just have a clear conscience in the future. ”

He took another sip of wine, then rubbed his eyes, and said softly: "I've been gone for more than ten years, and I've never been to see them." I didn't go when my brother and child were full moon, and I didn't go when the veteran went to the hospital because of a heart attack. This time, I just hid, so I wanted to go to them. As soon as I entered, the old man asked me why I had come here, if I had committed something outside. I said no, I'm going to come and see you. He didn't believe it, so I had to talk to him, so I quarreled with him for a few days. Then one day I drank too much and told him the truth. He didn't get angry after hearing this, he really didn't get angry, so he asked me to turn myself in, just say that I have a clear conscience. I said that it was scum who was killed, and there was no need to turn himself in. ”

Wang Tianyi let out a long sigh, I handed him a cigarette, he lit it, slowly exhaled the smoke, and muttered: "Every day after that, he told me to turn himself in." As a result, the police didn't find it in the end, but the enemy did, and when they came in, they were beaten. I beat a few of them at the time, but there were too many of them, so the old man let me go, saying that they had no enmity with these people, and that I would not be able to do anything if I left. When I came back, the old man was beaten to death, my brother was sitting on the floor crying, and his daughter-in-law ran back to her parents' house with the child. When the old man was taken to the hospital, the doctor said that he was dying, his sternum was cracked, and his internal organs were broken. ”

"My brother and I were standing next to me crying, and the old man had no strength left, and his last words were to cry. After saying that, he kicked his leg and went directly to the west. Brother go and get me all the money and let me go. I knew to cry when I was holding the money, so I wanted to ask the old man if he regretted saving me in the first place. After that, I ran away for a while, wondering what I was trying to do, whether I was doing something wrong. ”

When he said this, Wang Tianyi already whimpered, and his burly body couldn't help but tremble a little.

I poured him another glass of wine and whispered, "He made it clear, you just have a clear conscience." Neither he nor your brother blamed you, otherwise he wouldn't have helped you in the end. Drink it, toast him with three glasses of wine, and repay the kindness in the next life. ”

Wang Tianyi took the wine glass, poured the wine on the ground, then put down the wine glass, buried his head in his arm, and said that he was sleepy.

I stood up and walked out the door, afraid to hear him crying......
