Chapter 416: Gift
After guessing the news that Chihuo had left behind, I had a feeling of enlightenment.
I wanted to share it with anyone, but when I looked up, I found that there was no one to share it with.
But to my surprise, the first person I wanted to share the news with was a female demon.
When I thought of her, I thought of the big white legs, and I wanted to find the female devil even more, I really didn't expect that a woman I hated so much before would be so eager to see her at this moment.
I carefully put away the jade Guanyin, and I hid the dagger in the knife holster on my calf.
After returning to the hospital with the military advisor, I stayed in the hospital, during which I told my uncle the information about the "Jade Guanyin" left by Chihuo, and asked him to inquire about it in the capital.
I also told the military advisor about this, and he was full of doubts, saying that he had never heard of this person in the capital.
I couldn't help but wonder if my guess was right, but for the time being, I was all on my mother, and I didn't have time to take care of it, so I planned to wait until my mother was ready.
I stayed in the hospital for two days and my mom still didn't get any better.
During this period, Wen Xiangru and Zhu Yeqing knew the news of my return and came to visit my mother separately, but seeing that I was in a bad mood, they didn't stay too much, so they comforted me and left.
After they left, I learned from the military advisor that Wen Xiangru can now be said to be in full swing, ruling almost the entire territory from East China to southern Jiangsu, and is going deep into the hinterland of the Central Plains.
I wasn't interested in any of this at the time, Wen Xiangru's power had nothing to do with me, and there were only three things I wanted to do now, one was for my mother to get better, one was to find the big white legs, and the other was to kill Lei Xie.
But each of these wishes seems more difficult than the other.
I sat in the corridor that afternoon, so I got up and walked outside, called out to Chen Fang, and said, "Go, follow me down for a cigarette." ”
When we got downstairs, I took out a lighter and a cigarette from my pocket, pinched the cigarette case, and when I found that there were no cigarettes, I threw them into the trash can on the side.
Chen Fang hurriedly took out his own cigarette, handed me one, and then reached out and lit it for me with the lighter in his hand.
I sat down slowly on the steps, Chen Fang also sat down next to me, lit a cigarette, took two puffs, and whispered to me: "Don't worry, my aunt is a good person, and she will definitely turn evil into good fortune." ”
I smoked a cigarette, looked ahead blankly, and said softly, "In this world, good people have never been rewarded. ”
By this time it was already a little late, and the sun hung obliquely in the sky, covering a few clouds, and seemed to be a little tired, and even the light was no longer dazzling, but radiated a soft orange-red light.
Looking at the beautiful scenery on the horizon like an oil painting, I couldn't help but murmur: "Chen Fang, do you know who I envy the most at this moment?" ”
Chen Fang turned his head to look at me, his face full of doubts, and said, "Who?" ”
"Chubby."
I suddenly grinned, and continued, "I don't know what he's doing now, whether he's preparing dinner in the kitchen with his wife, or sitting in the shop chatting about where to go for dinner in the evening." ”
Chen Fang fell silent instantly when he heard my words, took a big puff of the cigarette in his hand, and looked at the ruined sun in the distance with me.
I twitched my eyes vigorously and said softly: "I don't know how many people in this world envy me, I became famous at a young age, I have both power and wealth, and now I know that my biological father is a big hero, and my mother is a noble lady from a big family in the capital, as if she was born different......"
I shook my head and muttered, "But what they don't know is that I will never have the opportunity to see my biological parents, and I don't know how many times I have brushed shoulders with death, and now, it is also because of me, my adoptive mother, who brought me up since I was a child, lying in the hospital room, unconscious, the person I love the most, I don't know where ......"
As I spoke, my voice suddenly choked up.
Chen Fang stretched out his hand, pinched my shoulder, and said softly: "In this world, no one is born with their own tasks to complete, no matter how hard and difficult, there are brothers by your side, since fate wants to defeat you, you should straighten your spine like a man and carry it!" ”
I sighed, threw the cigarette butt on the ground, and reached out to him for it.
Chen Fang pinched the cigarette case and said that he was gone.
I stood up slowly on my knees and said to him, "Let's go, come with me to buy a box of cigarettes." ”
As I said that, I walked out, and he quickly followed.
When I walked outside the hospital, my emotions suddenly eased up, and I said to Chen: "You know, I especially miss the time when we were in high school together, and everyone in our dormitory was drinking and bragging in the dormitory, worry-free and dreaming about each other's future, and ......."
Speaking of this, my expression darkened suddenly, and my tone was extremely lost, and then I said slowly: "Moreover, Yang Xue is still alive." ”
Chen Fang hooked my shoulder and said, "Okay, it's in the past, don't think about it." ”
We went to the kiosk across the street from the hospital, and after buying cigarettes, we walked back.
Chen Fang handed me one of the hibiscus he bought, and said, "Come, taste one, it's not much stronger than your Taishan." ”
I didn't refuse, I took it, took a puff, and said it was okay.
"Big brother, give me some money!"
While the two of us were chatting, a childish voice suddenly came from the side.
I turned my head to look and found a dirty little boy standing at the entrance of the hospital, with a black jacket and blue pants, covered with grease, carrying a small green satchel on his body, holding a stainless steel lunch box in his small hand, looking at me with a pleading face, "Big brother, give me some money, I haven't eaten for a day." ”
I frowned, and when I saw that he was only eleven or twelve years old, I couldn't help but feel sympathy in my heart, and hurriedly walked over to him, squatted down, looked at him, and said softly: "Little friend, did you come out by yourself?" ”
The little boy shook his head and said, "No, and my mother." ”
I whispered, "Where's your mother?" ”
The little boy pointed to the inside of the hospital and said, "My mother has gone in and asked me to wait here." ”
I put my hand on his arm and whispered, "Kid, can I take you inside to find your mother?" It's too dangerous for you to be here yourself. ”
The little boy shook his head and said, "My mother said let me wait for her here, I can't go away." ”
He added: "My mom said she went to the trash can inside to pick up empty bottles and came out when she was done. ”
I sighed softly, feeling uncomfortable.
Chen Fang on the side suddenly spoke: "Little friend, haven't you eaten for a day, how can I listen to your voice quite enough." ”
I glanced back at Chen.
Chen Fang smiled and said, "I'm kidding." ”
As he spoke, he took out a stack of hundred-dollar bills from his pocket, and then counted a few, and was about to hand them to the little boy, I said to him: "Why are you so picky, there are only one or two thousand yuan in total, you can just give them all, and I don't have any money." ”
Chen Fang muttered, "I'm still going to buy supper for my brothers at night." ”
As he spoke, he stuffed all the money into the little boy's iron basin and said to him, "Little ghost, this is enough for you to eat for many days." ”
The little boy thanked us both.
I asked him, "Kid, can I stay here with you and wait for your mother to come out?" ”
He nodded and said yes.
Then he suddenly remembered something, and said to me, "Big brother, let me give you a gift, thank you for helping me." ”
I was a little surprised, and smiled: "No need, little friend, you can keep it for yourself." ”
The little boy said, "It's okay, big brother. ”
As he spoke, he turned around, hid his army-green satchel behind him, and reached out to find something inside.
Chen Fang shouted aside: "Hey, little ghost, are you just giving it to himself, I gave you the money!" ”
The little boy didn't say a word, but took a few clicks, then turned sharply, had one more thing in his hand, and straightened his arm to me.
"Be careful!"
Chen Fang on the side immediately shouted, and then slammed me with the shoulder.
"Bang!"
At the same time, a deafening gunshot was heard.
It was only then that I realized that the little boy was holding a black pistol.
