Chapter 32: The Future Is Cruel in the Imagination
Wu E's injury was too serious this time, and when he opened his eyes again, it was already late at night. The little medicine boy who had been waiting beside www.biquge.info Pen, Fun and Pavilion saw Wu E wake up, and walked to the bedside in a daze.
"You can't move now, the master said that you hurt your muscles and bones, and you will have to raise it for a few months."
Wu E moved his body slightly, and felt that there was no pain in his body, and after gasping for air, he could only give up the struggle and said: "Little brother, I want to ask you, what is the result of the literary test?" ”
The little medicine boy shook his head and said: "I don't know about this, after the master changed the medicine with you, he arranged for me to take care of you again, I don't know the situation outside." ”
"I don't have much to do now, can you please help me go out and inquire, who is the winner of the literary test?"
The little medicine boy looked out the window, yawned and said, "It's already three watches now, where I'll ask you, wait for tomorrow, I'll help you ask as soon as it's dawn." ”
It was indeed pitch black outside the window, and the little medicine boy was telling the truth in this situation. Wu E could only temporarily restrain his mind and wait for the dawn.
The little medicine boy lay back at the table and went to sleep, but Wu E couldn't sleep at all, he always felt that his thoughts were disturbed, and he even had a very bad premonition. But with such a hunch, he didn't dare to explore too deeply, so he could only continue to comfort himself, nothing would happen, Wang Yi promised him that he would help his brother within the scope of his ability.
The master will definitely come to see him tomorrow, don't worry, everything will be revealed tomorrow, what to do now is to take care of the injury, this is more important than anything else. Wu E kept comforting himself like this, he forced himself to close his eyes, forced himself to think in the last direction. But people are like this sometimes, no matter what happens, the more forced they are, the more they can't let go, so Wu E kept his eyes open until the dawn of the morning, and transmitted the faint light to the room through the window paper.
The little medicine boy may have been too tired to wake up. Wu E wanted to wake him up, but he didn't feel good, and it was already dawn, so he didn't care about waiting for a while and a half.
It was bright and the candle flame had burned out. The little medicine boy still hadn't woken up, but Wu E heard that the door outside the wing room had been opened at this time. Wu E, who suddenly felt a joy in his heart, watched the people outside walk in.
The person who came was Xu Langzhong, who saw the little medicine boy lying on the table and hadn't woken up yet, so he woke him up and let him leave. Seeing that Wu E had been looking at him, Xu Langzhong was a little stunned and said, "Young man, do you feel uncomfortable in your body?" ”
It's not nonsense, are you comfortable if you break a few bones? Of course, in this case, Wu E could only think about it in his heart, and said respectfully: "I have rough skin and thick flesh, and I have used your medicine, and I already feel much better, Xu Langzhong is worthy of being the miracle doctor on our Qinglong Mountain." ”
Xu Langzhong smiled and didn't speak, just seriously helped Lin Fei check the wound.
Wu E continued: "I want to ask Xu Langzhong about something, and I hope to be able to tell you." ”
"You want to ask, who won the essay yesterday, right?" Xu Langzhong helped to check the wound and said casually.
"How do you know?" Without waiting for Xu Langzhong to answer, Wu E said anxiously: "Please also tell Xu Langzhong truthfully, kid...... The kid couldn't be more grateful. ”
"Don't move, this is not an ordinary injury, if you don't handle it well, you will be disabled for life." Xu Langzhong pressed Wu E, who wanted to struggle to get up, and continued: "I know about your brother's affairs. The person who won the Wen test yesterday was your brother, the dragon head and the military advisor valued him very much, and entrusted him with important tasks, Wen Ji didn't dare to do anything to him. ”
Hearing Xu Langzhong say this, Wu E felt relieved. Xu Langzhong checked the wound and was about to leave after changing the medicine, Wu E couldn't help but stop him and said: "I was injured, try not to tell my brother, he wanted to ask, just say that I didn't get the leader and really didn't have the face to see him, and I went hunting in the mountains by myself." ”
Xu Langzhong closed the door with a smile on his face, and Wu E relaxed physically and mentally, closed his eyes, and fell asleep after a while.
At this time, Zhu Dayan, who was outside the door, saw Xu Langzhong come out, and slowly greeted him and said, "How is it, have you appeased you?" ”
Xu Langzhong took two quick steps forward, and said angrily: "Don't ask me to do this kind of thing in the future, I'm really not good at lying." Besides, although your apprentice is simple, he is not a good person, and I can't beat him. ”
"Help me a lot, I, Zhu Dayan, must remember the rare medicinal materials you mentioned last time, I will arrange for someone to go to Tianqing Mansion to buy them." Zhu Dayan dared to be busy.
Xu Langzhong said with a slightly better face at this time: "Don't worry, it's time to stabilize him now, but he can't keep the fire in the paper, he will know about it sooner or later." I think it's still you who is the master, so find an opportunity to tell him directly. ”
"Alas! You think I don't want to tell him, I'm afraid that if this kid knew about the situation, he would really go to the dragon head with a gun, so he would take his own life. ”
......
After staying on Qinglong Mountain for more than half a month, Lin Fei has walked the road to Old Man Sun's thatched house many times. But this time it may be the last time he left, and the vast world that Lin Fei longed for did not beckon to him, but jumped from one cage to another, as if life itself was a huge curse, no matter how you struggled, you will always be in this cage.
Such negative thoughts only flashed in Lin Fei's mind for a short time, and he was forcibly driven out, no matter what, he couldn't allow himself to have such negative thoughts. Negativity itself is corrosive, and any ambition will be eliminated in negative emotions.
The two things that Long Ao said, Lin Fei had never heard of at all, and he was also not confident that he could find them. But these are not things he can decide, and the only option left for him is to accept, and there is no second way to go.
The two people who followed him were the two who took him to the guillotine yesterday. The expressions on the faces of the two of them have remained almost unchanged since dawn, and they have not said a word, Lin Fei doesn't know if these two people were born like this, or if they don't bother to talk to him at all.
The experience of yesterday's guillotine is still vivid in my mind, especially the smell of blood that filled my mouth and nose at that time, it was like a shadow, and when I took a deep breath at will, I felt that my mouth was full of blood. Lin Fei, who had been thinking about it alone for a night, kept telling himself in his heart that he must adapt, he must adapt to such blood, and this kind of bloodshed may become a norm in the future.
For his future path, Lin Fei at this time has a clearer understanding, the future will always be more cruel than imagined, this sentence is very suitable for his state of mind at this time.
After walking for several hours, they were finally able to see Old Man Sun's thatched hut from a distance. The three of them invariably quickened their pace, and when they arrived outside the fence courtyard, Old Man Sun was already standing under the eaves and waiting, obviously he knew about the arrival of Lin Fei and the others.
In an instant, a thought flashed through Lin Fei's mind, this was a conspiracy, a conspiracy designed by Old Man Sun and Long Ao together. But it was also just a flash, Lin Fei denied his idea, the conspiracy must have a plan, if he just wanted him to work, there was no need to go through such a bone. Long Ao gave an order, and in Qinglong Mountain, who would dare not obey it!
When the three entered the room, they sat opposite each other. Old man Sun looked at Lin Fei and said with a smile: "Boy, it seems that you are lucky, at least you are still alive and well." ”
Lin Fei said angrily: "Are you looking forward to my death?" ”
Old man Sun filled his teacup without hurry, and said: "Both of you failed to win the first place in the civil and military test, and it is already a miracle that you can survive, isn't it lucky, what is it?" ”
"Don't talk about those useless ones, since they brought me to you, there must be something. You can just say what you want me to do, and I'll do it. ”
"Stinky boy, his temper is not small. What you want to do is very simple, finish the cup of tea on the side. ”
Lin Fei turned his head to look at the tea on the side, and on top of the clear tea there were two tea leaves that had not yet dispersed. This bowl of tea didn't seem to be special, but Lin Fei, who was too lazy to ask at this time, didn't want to drink all the tea in the cup in one gulp. It's a vain question to ask, because no matter what's inside, he has to drink it, so it's better not to ask, anyway, it won't be a deadly poison.
"Hmph, you kid is just fine, don't say that we are really quite angry. It's a pity that if I want to meet again after today, I don't know if there will be a chance. Old man Sun turned his head and said to the two people next to Lin Fei: "You two go out first, I'll talk to this kid, and after two hours, you can take him away." ”
"So, I'm afraid it's not in accordance with the rules!" The two of them said with embarrassed expressions.
Old man Sun's face sank: "I left this kid to talk for two hours, out of friendship, and the two of you can tell Long Ao afterwards." If you provoke the old man, I'm afraid you two won't be able to afford it. ”
Lin Fei thought that the two of them would not take Old Man Sun's words seriously at all, but after the two glanced at each other, they really left silently.
At this time, only Lin Fei and Old Man Sun were left in the house, and they didn't know what to say. After a short silence, Lin Fei spoke first: "What do you want to say to me, if you have something to say, hurry up, I don't know if there will be a chance in the future." ”
This is a truth, and it is also the insight that Lin Fei has gained from his experience in the past two days. In such troubled times, no one can guarantee when they will be killed by a knife, or killed by a sudden cold arrow. Lin Fei was already prepared to face sudden death, and with such preparation, he was able to face the difficulties that might happen or encounter in the future more positively. Everything prepares for the worst, then there is nothing worse than the worst.
"After drinking that cup of tea, you'll be a different person, kid, ready?"
Old man Sun's words made Lin Fei stunned on the spot for an instant, a cup of tea can turn him into another person?
