The old man who herded the sheep saw that they looked uncertain, and did not explain much, but immediately turned around and left, and said in his mouth: "If you come with me, you will know everything." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Because Liu Wei was still a little jealous of Ding Ayuan, she hurriedly followed the side of the old man's body.

The old man sensed her nervousness and uneasiness, and put a hand on her shoulder, as if to soothe and protect.

Liu Wei faced this life-saving benefactor, her feelings were overflowing, and when her husband was not by her side, and the dangerous person was on her side, she naturally regarded this extraordinary old man as a protective umbrella.

Ding Ayuan hesitated for a moment, thinking that the old man who had pulled him back from the edge of the cliff could guide him, so he strode forward without hesitation.

"Uncle, where are your sheep?"

Liu Wei looked around as she walked, but she couldn't find the shadow of a sheep.

"Haha, I have already left my flock on the side of the hill in order to chase you, don't worry about them for now, there are no wild beasts here."

Liu Wei listened to the explanation of the old man herding sheep, nodded thoughtfully, and then found that there was a simple house in front of herd.

As the distance got closer, she and Ding Ayuan behind her gradually saw the house clearly. It's actually a simple shed made of some trees, about two rooms, and there is a fence on the outside of the house.

Liu Wei was surprised: "Uncle, do you live here?" ”

The old man shook his head: "Not yet." When I'm done with it, I'll move in. ”

Ding Ayuan couldn't help but question: "You don't always want to live in seclusion here, do you?" ”

"Haha, of course not. However, I am currently the owner of the mountain. ”

"Oh, what's going on?"

"It's sunny outside, let's go inside and talk."

The old man pushing the door of the simple house pushed the wooden door of the simple house, and let Liu Wei and Ding Ayuan go inside first.

Liu Wei didn't dare to go first, but waited for Ding Ayuan to go in first, and then followed the old man to enter.

When she entered, there was already a bed, a square table, two wooden stools and other belongings. There was a set of luggage on the bed, a drinking glass on the square table, and a kerosene lamp.

The old man first motioned for them to sit down. Liu Wei saw that Ding Ayuan was sitting on a wooden stool, so she chose to sit on the side of the wooden bed farther away than him. The old sheep herder sat down on another wooden bench.

"It's quite simple at the moment, and when it's built in the future, it will be a very good place to settle down." The old man smiled and explained.

Liu Wei asked puzzledly, "Why did you choose to settle here?" ”

The old man didn't take the lead in answering, but asked, "What is your impression of this mountain?" ”

Liu Wei shook her head: "Except for some shrubs and weeds, there is nothing else here." ”

The old man nodded: "Yes." But after a few more years, I will turn this place into a lush leafy mountain forest. ”

Ding Ayuan couldn't help but interject: "Did you contract this place to do greening?" ”

"Haha, this gentleman is right. I just want to plant trees here. ”

Ding Ayuan couldn't help but sigh: "You are so old, why do you want to come up and suffer this crime?" ”

The old man herding the sheep groaned: "Don't look at this is a barren mountain and bald mountains, but I have feelings for this place. I think I fought with my comrades-in-arms here back then, and many of my comrades-in-arms are buried here. I come to worship them every Qingming. When I saw the environment here, I didn't feel a good feeling. Therefore, after his retirement, he applied to open up land here for afforestation. ”

Liu Wei came to his senses and said: "I saw that you were not an ordinary old peasant, but I didn't expect you to be an old revolutionary." ”

Ding Ayuan became more and more puzzled: "Since you have already retired, why don't you enjoy a happy old age?" ”

The old man couldn't help but ask: "I want to let my residual heat shine some more light now, don't you think I won't feel happy?" ”

Ding Ayuan smiled: "Maybe you think this way of living is more interesting." ”

The old man couldn't help but say emotionally: "When I think back to those comrades-in-arms who died young, I feel that I am not qualified to enjoy my old age. There was a battle here. Our whole company was surrounded by devils. Except for a few comrades-in-arms who broke out, the vast majority of comrades-in-arms are sleeping here. I also went through nine deaths to survive. Later, I could not help but think that God had let me live not for pleasure, but to continue to fight for the revolutionary cause. Therefore, no matter how long people want to live, they must cherish their lives, live wonderfully, and live the meaning of life. ”

Ding Ayuan and Liu Wei were impressed by the old man's words at the same time, and cast admiring glances at him.

After Ding Ayuan was enlightened by the old man herding sheep, the inner haze that had been troubled for many days finally dissipated.

In the end, he said excitedly: "After listening to your teachings, I have understood many truths. I really regret what I did. At the moment I know what to do. As a doctor, I should show my worth by helping those unfortunate people who are suffering from illness to relieve their suffering. ”

The old man nodded with satisfaction: "It's not too late for you to figure it out now, so don't worry about the emotional misfortune before, and you have to pack up your mood and get back on the road." As long as you let yourself fully shine at work, then love will definitely favor you. You go and do what you have to do. ”

Ding Ayuan stood up and first said to the old man herding sheep: "Thank you." You did save me. It's not just my life, it's my soul. I'll come back to visit you when I have time. ”

The old man nodded with a smile.

Before leaving, Ding Ayuan expressed his heartfelt apologies to Liu Wei: "Liu Wei, I frightened you, and I apologize to you for the harm I have caused. ”

Liu Wei shook her head lightly: "For me who is about to come to the end of my life, what else is not worthy of forgiveness?" You can't help but be haunted. ”

Ding Ayuan said again: "I understand your desire to match the two of them, and I also want to help, but unfortunately I really don't know her whereabouts." She may never come back. ”

After hearing this, Liu Wei couldn't help moistening her eyes.

At this time, Ding Ayuan took out a bunch of keys from his pocket and put them on the square table: "This is your car key." The car was parked at the bottom of the mountain. You can discover it when you go down the mountain. ”

Liu Wei was stunned: "Then how do you go back?" ”

"It's only about twenty miles from the foot of the mountain. I want to take a walk on my own and sort out my thoughts. ”

Liu Wei hurriedly said: "Or, I'll drive you back, right?" ”

Ding Ayuan smiled indifferently: "You better stay for a while and listen to the enlightenment of this old revolutionary." I know you can't let go of Xiaolan in your heart, and you're terminally ill. Maybe he has a cure for you. ”

Liu Wei couldn't help but have mixed feelings in her heart, and couldn't help but hang her head gloomily.

After the old man sent Ding Ayuan out of the door, he turned around and looked at Liu Wei again: "Girl, are you really suffering from an incurable disease?" ”

Liu Wei nodded tearfully.

"In that case, you should go to the hospital for treatment. Wouldn't the economic conditions allow it? ”

Liu Wei shook her head gloomily: "No." My family runs a company, and there is no shortage of money at all. However, I have reached the terminal stage of cancer, and no matter how much money I have, I can't buy this life back. So, no one can save me. ”

The corners of the old man's eyes moistened: "You are a kind child." Although he can't save himself, he is trying to help his lover find the lover he misunderstood back then, and wants to save his happiness. ”

Liu Wei's tears of excitement burst out of her eyes: "I thought I would bring him a lifetime of happiness... but... God cruelly said no... I can only close my eyes before I die by helping him find a new happiness..."

"Silly girl." The old man interrupted in disgust, "Are you living for your lover?" ”

"No, of course my son. But apart from them, I have no other relatives, who else can I for? ”

The old man pondered for a while before he spoke again: "I now even have a great-grandson. But I gave up my family life and came here on my own to pursue my dreams while I was alive. For me, my loved ones are more than just my own family. ”

"And who are your relatives?"

The old man smiled kindly: "Girl, aren't you?" Isn't that gentleman? I help you as if you were my own family. Of course, there are all living beings in the world who can become my relatives. ”

Liu Wei sighed: "You were born and died in order to resist foreign humiliation, and I don't know how many lives you saved. But I feel that my strength is so small, how can I compare with you? ”

The old man shook his head: "Girl, you are wrong. Each of us may have different strengths, but there are no big or small ways to help others and do things that are good for society. Although it is unfortunate that you are terminally ill, there are many people in the world who are more unfortunate than you. ”

Liu Wei smiled bitterly: "I am a dying person, who else is more unfortunate than me?" ”

"A person's happiness and misfortune cannot be measured by the length of life. If you let your finite life be infinitely wonderful, it will be in vain in the next life. My comrades-in-arms were young when they died, some in their teens, but their lives were wonderful and have been passed down to future generations. So, can you say they are unlucky? Since you are a successful entrepreneur and the wealth you have obtained comes from the society, you should know how to repay the society and be kind and charitable, which is the conscience of a private entrepreneur. ”

"Do you mean that I should do more good deeds and make good connections?"

"Girl, if you can make it a pleasure to help others, then you will let your short life shine with an unquenchable light. This may be more rewarding than if you are anxious to save your lover's happiness. ”

Liu Wei thought for a while, and then nodded with a little understanding: "I understand." Thank you for your enlightenment. You are my role model. ”

When Liu Wei left, the old sheep herder personally sent her down the mountain because she was not familiar with the path down the mountain, talked to her along the way, and found that his 'flock' was just a pair of 'mother and son'.

The old sheep herder explained with a smile: "I, the old shepherd man, actually have no real name, in fact, in the name of herding sheep, I have to survey the geography and climate here for a long time, and prepare for the next step of afforestation." ”

Liu Wei echoed and smiled: "You are 'drunkards don't mean to drink'." ”

With the help of the old sheep herder, Liu Wei successfully reached the foot of the mountain and found her car.

When she parted, the old sheep herder solemnly admonished: "The girl should cherish herself." I hope you will improve the quality of your life and glow your life in your lifetime. ”

Liu Wei nodded tearfully: "Well, I know what I should do." I hope that like Lei Feng, I can use my limited life to do meaningful things for the people infinitely. ”
