Yu Heping was shocked, hateful and jealous, and said in a strange tone: "You are really lucky, you can also get acquainted with big people like Huang Lao." ”

Li Rui smiled, turned him into an army, and said, "Mayor, I heard that you were injured in a car accident last week, I don't know if you are better now?"

Yu Heping's face was very ugly when he heard this, and he glanced at Ji Gang beside him, naturally complaining that he was talking nonsense about the injuries in the car accident.

Ji Gang understood his eyes, and hurriedly explained: "I didn't say it, it was Mayor Jia who asked first, and then I ...... He already knew what I was talking about. ”

Yu Heping turned his face away from him, but his face became even more ugly.

Ji Gang knew that he still blamed himself for talking nonsense to the outside world, and he did make a certain degree of mistake in this matter, he hung his head in shame, but he secretly hated in his heart, Li Rui, this kid is really hateful, and he actually talked to the boss about this embarrassing thing in person, isn't it equivalent to giving himself eye medicine? It's really hateful, it's extremely hateful, no, you have to think of a way to take revenge on him, he doesn't know what's wrong with this time, and he doesn't go to the Shengjing Hotel to find Ouyang Xin for a private meeting, and the bugging device he hid in Ouyang Xin's office is useless, alas, it's really hateful!

Yu Heping didn't answer Li Rui's question, and said lightly: "Don't you still have to pick up the secretary, go quickly, if you go late, be careful of criticism." After saying that, he walked to the staircase with a cold face.

Ji Gang and Zheng Meili hurriedly followed, and the two of them followed by their side, following in unison, just like his left and right protectors.

Li Rui saw that Dong Jieyu was about to send it off, so he hurriedly stopped him: "Mr. Dong, how is Huang Lao's condition? Did you take the pills made by the old Chinese medicine doctor in the first hospital of the city last night? You tell me, and when the secretary asks later, I will also have something to say." ”

This was actually said to Yu Heping, telling him that if I want to ask Dong Jieyu, she won't be able to send you down.

Yu Heping didn't hear it, and quickly disappeared under the stairs.

Dong Jieyu's calm pretty face suddenly became very nervous at this moment, and she whispered: "They all said that you were injured last night? Li Rui turned around, pointed to the back of his head to show her, and said, "I accidentally fell into the valley, and the back of my head hit a small hole, but it has been stitched up, it's no big deal, don't worry." Dong Jieyu stared at the injury for a while, naturally, no matter how she looked at it, she could only see the bandage, she couldn't help laughing, and said with a smile: "It's so ugly." Li Rui turned around and nodded: "Yes, but I can't help it, just bear with it for a while." ”

Dong Jieyu got down to business: "The pill you just said, Huang Lao has already taken it, he took it once in the middle of the night last night, and he took another pill just now, it seems to be two pills a day." So far, there is no cure, Huang Lao is still lying in bed, very weak, and he doesn't want to eat. After seeing him just now, the mayor said that he would take another day of medicine and try it, and if it still doesn't work, he must be transferred to a big hospital in Beijing immediately. ”

Li Rui sighed when he heard this, Yu Heping said this, but it is also the proper meaning of the question, if Song Chaoyang is replaced, he will also make such a decision, after all, now everyone is just trying to use the treatment methods of traditional Chinese medicine to cure Huang Lao, and no one dares to pack a ticket to cure Huang Lao, if Chinese medicine is not good, then only transfer Huang Lao to Beijing University Hospital with a higher medical level, this is also a kind of responsibility for Huang Lao, of course, it is not excluded, there may also be a desire to avoid disaster in peace, if Huang Lao is seriously ill and dies in Qingyang, Qingyang will have to bear countless infamy, and if he goes to another place, he can avoid this unwarranted disaster。

Dong Jieyu said: "Do you go in to see Huang Lao?" After he heard that you were injured by looking for medicine for him, he really wanted to see you, but unfortunately you were not in the hotel last night, ......" Li Rui looked down at his watch, the time was not too late, and there was still about ten minutes of spare time to see Huang Lao, not to mention that even if he delayed for a while, the boss knew that he was asking about Huang Lao's condition, and he would not mind, so he nodded and said: "Okay, go in and see his old man." ”

Dong Jieyu turned around and walked to the door of room 202, pushed it slightly, opened the door, stood aside, and motioned for him to come in.

Li Rui walked into the house, saw that the living room was empty, and the bedroom door was empty, so he tiptoed over, came to the door, gently pushed the door open, and saw that Huang Lao was still bedridden, and his bodyguard sat on the edge of the bed with blood-red eyes, sighed in his heart, walked in, and said in a low voice: "Huang Lao, I came to see you." ”

When Huang Lao and the bodyguards heard the sound, they saw that it was their old friend Li Rui, one laughed from the heart, and the other relaxed their expressions.

Li Rui also knew through the change in the bodyguard's expression that he must have been tired of all kinds of leading cadres coming to visit Huang Lao, but he couldn't refuse, it was estimated that he was also quite depressed, walked to the bed with a smile, held Huang Lao's hand and felt his body temperature, and said: "Huang Lao, I know you want to see me to say thank you, but this is not necessary at all, although there is a lot of age difference between our father and son, but they are very angry, and they are already old friends. If you're polite to me, you just don't treat me as a friend, hehe. ”

Huang Lao was very happy when he heard this, sighed, and sighed weakly: "I can't imagine that I, Huang Xinghua, can make such a good friend who is so righteous and enthusiastic in his old age, hehe, even if the king of Hades invites me to go to tea tonight, I have no regrets." ”

Li Rui's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly smiled: "Huang Lao, don't say that, you just have to take care of your illness now, don't think about anything, your health is still fine, at least you can live for another twenty years!"

Huang Lao Huang Xinghua said with a smile: "I'm just a metaphor, Xiaoyou, you don't have to be nervous, I will work hard to recuperate and live up to everyone's kindness to me." However, life is impermanent, life and death are uncertain, what should come will always come, you and I have to think about opening some. ”

Li Rui became more and more apprehensive when he heard this, but he didn't dare to ask him words such as "Do you feel something wrong?" and asked tentatively, "What do you think of it now?"

Huang Xinghua said: "Fortunately, the Nine Flavors Shunxin Pill seems to have played some role, and you can feel it vaguely." ”

Li Rui asked again: "I heard the old doctor say that you can't afford to be sick because you visited your former residence, saw things and thought about people, and your emotions were entangled.

The smile on Huang Xinghua's face slowly retracted, and he looked at him with emotion and said, "It seems that Xiaoyou, you are really good for me, except for you, no one else has asked about this." Okay, then I'll talk to you. Sit down and listen. ”

When his bodyguard heard this, he waved his hand and asked Li Rui to sit down. Li Rui was also not polite, and sat directly beside the bed by Huang Xinghua.

Before Huang Xinghua talked about his thoughts, he first told a vernacular Buddhist scripture: "The Buddha Says the Parable Sutra tells such a story, a long, long time ago, a man wandered in the wilderness and was chased by a vicious elephant. The visitor panicked, not knowing what to do, and happened to see an empty well, next to the well there was a big tree root leading to the well. The visitors hurriedly grabbed the roots of the tree and hid in the well, only to find out halfway down that two black and white rats were running on the roots of the tree overhead, gnawing at the roots; there were four poisonous snakes sticking out their tongues on the four walls of the well, and they would pounce at any time; there was a poisonous dragon at the bottom of the well looking up with its mouth open.

Visitors are afraid of poisonous snakes and dragons, and they fear that the roots of trees will be bitten off by rats. At this time, five drops of sweet honey dripped from the honeycomb of the tree and fell into the mouth of the visitor impartially. Visitors suddenly forgot their fears and worries and tasted honey to their heart's content. As the trees shake, scattered bees fly down to sting visitors. And out of nowhere, a wildfire came and burned the tree. ”

Li Rui only listened to it leisurely, but he felt that this story was very familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere.

Huang Xinghua continued: "The true meaning of this story is to use the wilderness of ignorance as a metaphor for a long life, the tourists as a metaphor for ordinary people, the elephant as a metaphor for impermanence, the well as a metaphor for life and death, the tree root as a metaphor for the root of life, the black and white mice as a metaphor for day and night, the rat gnawing on the roots of the tree as a metaphor for life disappearing all the time, the four poisonous snakes as a metaphor for the four elements of earth, water, fire and wind that make up the human body, and honey as a metaphor for wealth, sex, fame, food, The five desires of sleeping, the bee is a metaphor for evil thoughts, the wildfire is a metaphor for aging and disease, and the poisonous dragon is a metaphor for death, to teach people to be vigilant about birth, old age, sickness and death, and not to be swallowed and oppressed by the five desires of wealth, fame, food, and sleep. ”

Li Rui nodded and said: "This story is very short, but the truth is very vivid, life is indeed like this." But what does this have to do with what you're thinking about now, Old Huang?"

Huang Xinghua said: "I prefer to understand this story as that ordinary people cannot avoid the temptation of various desires in the world. For example, I was tempted by 'sex', but this color was not a woman, but a relationship with a woman. When I was a teenager, my family had not moved out of the country, and my whole family lived in Qingyang. I was a student at Qingyang Middle School and had the privilege of being at the same table with a beautiful girl.

The girl was born in a poor family, although the family was poor, her father was very far-sighted, insisted that she go to school, hoping that she would learn cultural knowledge well and contribute to the rise of the Chinese nation. She has a delicate appearance, a gentle and demure personality, and a very beautiful demeanor, and she is the best among my classmates, and I also admire her the most. At that time, I was in love, and it was difficult to resist her attraction to me, and I fell into her love before I knew it.
