Volume I: Chapter 66 Atrophy
Bai Liwei occasionally came to the old man's courtyard to visit Yu Yin, who was resting in bed, and of course more to see Yu Yin's eyes that looked like the old man.
Shu Yan is still busy dealing with the trivial matters in the castle, taking care of this home that has nothing to do with her, and taking care of everyone in and out of the castle, not only taking care of their lives, but also their feelings.
In addition to Zhong Daxuan, Shu Yan was also the person who went to visit Yu Yin the most times in the fort; Although Yu Yin, who was on bed rest, was not keen on talking, Shu Yan still went to visit from time to time as always.
However, among all the people in the castle, only Zhong Daxuan was different from the past.
In the recent period, Zhong Daxuan has been called by Yu Yin, who is on bed rest all day long, and he has been running around for Yu Yin from morning to night, and he is very busy; But fortunately, he was born idle, and it is better that he is willing.
Yu Yin followed the instructions of Baili Liushen and went to the Transfiguration House every seven days to change a plaster; And every time Yu Yin and Zhong Daxuan went, Baili Liushen showed that they were still as cold as ever.
Sometimes, Yu Yin even felt that he should never expect to hear even a superfluous greeting from a hundred miles deep in his mouth.
Although Shu Yan did not accompany Shu Yan when he went to change the plaster on the last two occasions, Yu Yin still did not say a word about the injury, let alone mention any topic about the appointment and dismissal.
That's because Yu Yin noticed that the seemingly casual flow on the surface was actually very concerned about his injury. Of course, Baili Liushen only cares about the injury, no matter who the injured person is.
It is precisely because Baili Liushen is such a conscientious and good doctor with no distractions, so if it is not a last resort, Yu Yin really does not want to involve her in this power and status dispute prematurely.
When the three plasters were twenty-one days later, when Baili Liushen announced that Yu Yin's bone injury had basically healed, Yu Yin's mood was undoubtedly extremely excited; However, this also means that he will face new challenges.
Sure enough, as Baili Liushen said before, Yu Yin's right foot and right calf that have atrophied due to long-term stress may be difficult to walk like a normal person for a while.
In desperation, Yu Yin had to hold on to everything around him that could be supported, moving forward step by step, and trying to exert force on his atrophied legs and feet little by little.
How can it be that not every place has something to support, even if it is this small back room, there is no furnishings between the north and the south for Yu Yin to borrow.
Poor Yu Yin could only move back and forth on the north wall where the bed was located, because the space was so small, that Yu Yin barely held on for half a day, and then lost interest in moving.
In the afternoon of this day, Yu Yin sat on the edge of the bed boredly, looking at the window that opened opposite, looking at the world outside the window through the limited angle after the window was opened, and then looking down at his useless legs and feet, a great loneliness and sourness suddenly surged in his heart.
In fact, Yu Yin can jump to the opposite window with one foot as before, just touching the ground with one foot and seeing the scenery, is it still the mood he has been looking forward to for a long time?
At this time, Zhong Daxuan returned to the main room of the Fish Tears Pavilion with the tea tray.
As soon as Zhong Daxuan entered the door of the main room, he saw Yu Yin in the inner room sitting on the edge of the bed in despair.
Seeing this, Zhong Daxuan hurriedly put the tea tray in his hand on the round table in the outhouse, and then took a round stool from the round table and hurried into the inner room; Then he put the round stool in his hand next to Yu Yin's bed, then sat down, and asked Yu Yin cautiously: "Yu Yin, what's wrong with you?" Did someone make you angry again? ”
Yu Yin didn't answer Zhong Daxuan's words, but directly said the thought that had just flashed in his mind: "Brother Daxuan, please go buy a cane for me and come back." ”
"Okay, what do you want crutches for?" Zhong Daxuan asked Yu Yin in confusion.
"Brother Da Xu, do you look at me like this, am I still good? I couldn't even walk to the window opposite. Yu Yin retorted to Zhong Daxuan with a crying voice.
When Zhong Daxuan heard this, while feeling sorry for Yu Yin, he didn't forget to carefully analyze with Yu Yin: "Yu Yin, I know that you are in a hurry, in fact, my heart is even more anxious than yours, but we can't rush to the doctor!" The bottom end of the crutches is so thin, in case your calves are weak and your feet slip, the crutches simply cannot support your body in the first place and maintain balance for you. It's fine if you just fall, but if you hit your freshly healed wound, wouldn't it be bad? ”
"That being said, I can't always move back and forth in this acre and thirds of land! I'm afraid that before I can regain the ability to walk, I will die of depression first. Yu Yin said angrily.
"What do you think, how about I make your crutches?" Zhong Daxuan asked Yu Yin coldly.
"You're my crutch?" Yu Yin repeated a little bewildered.
"Yes, I'll be your crutch, support your body and keep your balance for you while helping you move, don't you think?" Zhong Daxuan asked Yu Yin's opinion.
"It's good, Brother Da Xuan, it's just that since I was on bed rest, you have been working hard day and night every day, and I have seen it in my eyes and remembered it in my heart. In that case, why am I embarrassed to trouble you again? Yu Yin asked Zhong Daxuan rhetorically.
"Look at what you said, Yu Yin, if I was afraid of trouble, how could I carry you under the Netherworld Mountain that day? If I am afraid of trouble, how can I stay in this Jinhong Water Heart Fort for five months? If I'm afraid of trouble, where should I go to find this precious experience? What's more, haven't we always been inseparable from each other? Since there is no distinction between each other, where is the trouble? Let's go, Yu Yin, I'll help you go to the window and have a look now. Zhong Daxuan said, and got up and helped Yu Yin, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, up.
The afternoon sun shines through the window into the house, and you can dimly see the branches swaying in the wind, and faintly hear the sound of the leaves blowing in the wind.
Yu Yin, who was standing in front of the window, held Zhong Daxuan beside him tightly, and suddenly felt that this moment was in vain, where would he dare to ask for a lifetime?
The process of regaining the ability to walk is undoubtedly difficult, but fortunately, there is Zhong Daxuan's support and companionship. Originally, it was a test of Yu Yin's perseverance and will, but now it has become a test of Zhong Daxuan's patience and persistence.
From the window to the front of the house, from the front of the house to the center of the courtyard, from the center of the courtyard to the front of the Fish Tears Pavilion, from the front of the Fish Tears Pavilion to the front of the Jian Ze Garden, from the front of the Jian Ze Garden to the front of the Bun Chau Gate, from the front of the Ti Chau Gate to the front of the Vientiane Hall, from the front of the Vientiane Hall to the center of the front yard, from the center of the front yard to the front of the fort gate.
In this way, Zhong Daxuan supported Yu Yin day after day, and extended the distance to go out day by day. From the initial movement to the subsequent walking, Yu Yin, who was limping, did not fall a single fall, or even stumble. Because Zhong Daxuan, who was on crutches on the side, never dared to relax for a moment.
In the fifteenth year of Kunqian, the fifteenth day of the leap October, heavy snowfall.
At dawn on this day, when Yu Yin let go of his hands, touched the ground with his feet, and stood firmly in front of the gate of Jinhong Shuixin Fort, recalling the first time he went to the fort and lay on Zhong Daxuan's back, Yu Yin couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It feels so good to be down-to-earth!" ”
However, in the more than four months that Yu Yin fractured her right foot, although she was on one foot, she was not independent, because she was always accompanied, supported, and burdened.
Perhaps in the eyes of others, this is just a small injury that can be healed in just four months, and this is just a small ordeal in the long road; But the despair, struggle and hardships behind it are only known to Yu Yin himself, and of course he also knows the careful protection from Zhong Daxuan.
And this day is undoubtedly the second happiest day since Yu Yin came to the territory of the Celestial Empire alone; As for the happiest day, of course, it was the day when he and Zhong Daxuan met again at the foot of the Netherworld Mountain after ten years.
So that night, Yu Yin took advantage of the irrepressible joy in his heart, picked up the touching and enlightenment in his recent life, improvised a sporadic song, and played this sporadic song with his loyal listener - Zhong Daxuan while the iron was hot for the first time.
I can only listen to this sporadic piece of music with a subdued and frustrating tone, and under Yu Yin's immersive emotional performance, it creates a quiet and tranquil atmosphere in an instant, which is generous and pleasant.
In such a rare moment, Zhong Daxuan gently closed his eyes and didn't think about anything, just quietly listened to Yu Yin's performance.
Zhong Daxuan, whose eyes were slightly closed, unconsciously unconsciously removed all his mental defenses and all his thoughts in the sound of Yu Yin's music; It's just that I don't know what he feels and what he feels in his heart at this moment, because he doesn't want to go anywhere! I only knew that there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth as usual.
And when the end of the sporadic piece composed by Yu Yin gradually dissipated between heaven and earth, Zhong Daxuan, who was deeply unsatisfied, slowly opened his eyes and sighed to Zhong Daxuan as usual: "Yu Yin, recently I feel more and more that what you play is not only the sound of the song, but also the voice of my heart; And every time I hear you play, I don't think about anything, I don't ask for anything, because I feel like I have the whole world. ”
When Yu Yin heard this, her chin lowered her eyes, and she smiled shyly.
"It's just Yu Yin, you know, every time I listen to your performance, I feel very tired. Because there are so many emotions in your songs, I can't bear it for a while. Zhong Daxuan added to Yu Yin with emotion.
"Brother Da Xu, do you know, I love composing music, and I love the music I compose myself. Because if you don't even love the music you compose, then who can you expect to love? So I always can't help but inject my emotions into the music I compose, but not everyone can experience it; And you can feel that for me, it is undoubtedly a great encouragement. Yu Yin explained to Zhong Daxuan with relief.
