Chapter Eighty-Eight: The So-called Capable Work Harder
Mu Tong persuaded the excited Sun Bo and others to go back on the grounds that they needed to formulate a training plan for the long term. But in my heart, I always thought that I was just because I couldn't refuse the hot-headed impulses of so many people.
In reality, she didn't do anything related to her supposed preparation, but sat there alone in a daze, no one knowing what she was thinking. But her appearance was enough for Liu Bin and Yao Jinghong to bypass silently, and no one dared to come over and disturb her rashly.
Only Old Man Zhao...
Because the food in the team was much better than that of the ordinary survivors outside, the old man's face was also very good, and if it weren't for the fear of being displaced, it would almost be better than the state before the end of the world.
He walked over quietly and sat beside Mu Tong, his gentle and kind gaze soaked Mu Tong like warm water, which gradually calmed down her somewhat confused heart.
"Grandpa, do you think I'm too nosy?" Mu Tong smiled a little self-deprecatingly, "I still can't wipe my face and refuse." "Being lifted to a high platform like that, she has no room to refuse.
"I don't think it's because I can't save face, but because you're a little girl, you're a very enthusiastic character!" Old Man Zhao touched his chin, which did not have a few beards, and said with a smile.
"Actually, you mean to say Our Lady, don't you?" Then he laughed again, "No, I should say it's a bad heart. ”
Old Man Zhao shook his head, "Maybe I'm old, and I don't understand it like you children." In the eyes of our generation, the so-called rotten kindness is obviously not capable enough, and it does not care about the wishes of others, but the love is overflowing, and in the end, it does not help others, and it also makes itself unbearable. But what are you~" Old Man Zhao looked Mu Tong up and down, shook his head and said, "Your ability is obvious to everyone, so naturally you are not incompetent, and those people you help are also those who they took the initiative to ask you for help, and in the end, you have protected them thoroughly." In this way, three are not counted. So I don't think you're so good~"
Mu Tong smiled bitterly, "Grandpa, you are really comforting." ”
"Hey, you little girl, why do you always like to misinterpret me?"
Mu Tong stared at a point on the ground, still not knowing what he was thinking.
Old Man Zhao sighed and leaned closer to Mu Tong, "Girl, there is something I have never told you, you are the second child I have seen so responsibly over the years, and the first girl with a sense of responsibility!" ”
"I'm really flattered by what you said. I know you're not a country doctor, you've seen the world. I don't know what to say if you praise me so unsparingly. ”
"If you can listen, it's much better than if you're flattered. I say this, but I don't mean to compliment you, my old man has lived for so many years, and I don't mind living a few years less, do I still have to stammer with your little doll? ”
"Grandpa, that's not what I meant!" Mu Tong said nervously. Old Man Zhao is the master of the Chinese medicine industry, but he is not comparable to a person who is full of cheaters.
Old Man Zhao stretched out his hand and pressed down, signaling Mu Tong not to worry, the smile on his face was gentle and never changed, "There are some things that need to be adapted." The same is true for blessings and charms. You obviously want to help everyone and help people in need from the bottom of your heart, but how did you end up and start to doubt your original intention? Don't tell me anything, that's what you think. I don't believe you think the same thing yourself, that you yourself are rotten and good, and that you are a virgin! ”
"Of course I don't want to think so, but I can't help but feel it." Mu Tong smiled bitterly, "My strength is too small, but my heart seems to be too big, so I become incompetent." ”
Old Man Zhao laughed, "So, you're at a loss?" In fact, you think this way because you don't understand a truth, people's abilities and responsibilities are compatible. The reason why you are at a loss is simply because you have not learned to take responsibility. In this world, we not only have a responsibility for ourselves, love is boundless, there are capable people, but also have a responsibility for all living beings in this world. ”
"You mean, I have a responsibility to them?"
Old Man Zhao didn't answer her question directly, just turned his head to look outside. In the sun, there are quite a few people sitting there basking in the sun. People who have experienced disasters can only find some comfort in this moment when the sun shines. But in fact, there is still a sword hanging in everyone's heart, and that is the zombies wandering outside.
"This is a catastrophe that has never been seen before. It is up to every human being to unite and face the cruel walking dead. It's not a game, it's not an illusion, it's real. Maybe one day, all of us will really be wiped out in the mouths of those walking dead. So we need to stick together and take responsibility to the best of our ability, so that we have a better chance of winning! ”
Mu Tong pondered the old man's words carefully, and seemed to be even more confused. Old Man Zhao didn't say anything anymore, and quietly got up and left.
Liu Bin and Yao Jinghong, who were waiting outside, saw the old man come out and immediately greeted him, "How is it?" ”
"Did Mu Tong say anything?"
"Okay, you two don't have to worry, I believe that Mu Tong will always come out on her own!"
"But..."
"Red girl, what are you going to eat at noon today? Didn't you sneak out the day before yesterday? Did you bring back the meat too? Let's make some meat to eat! Old Man Zhao's eyes suddenly lit up, which was really no different from Liu Bin's house. I really wonder if these two people are related by blood.
Yao Jinghong stomped her feet angrily, "Grandpa, who did you learn from that and actually call me a red girl?" It's really hard to hear. Also, who told you that I took the meat back? Is your message a little too well-informed? Yao Jinghong said, but her eyes glanced at the other guy who was swallowing saliva.
Liu Bin's expression was solemn, and he immediately ducked back, "That, is there no firewood?" I'm going to find some firewood~" Then the smoke disappeared.
Old Man Zhao also laughed, "That, I just ask, ask." Ah red girl, hurry up and take a look at Mu Tong's girl, she should be hungry too! ”
Yao Jinghong immediately froze, "I'll go!" He turned and ran in.
Old Man Zhao squinted, hummed a little song, and turned around to find a place to bask in the sun~
