Chapter 51: Almost Turned into a Vegetative State
"Go back? ……。 Where to go back? Isn't this my home? ”
I asked him with a puzzled expression.
Lao Cai didn't answer, but suddenly punched me in the chest.
I didn't know that Lao Cai would suddenly come to such a hand, and he was knocked over with a punch by him carelessly.
I stood up and grabbed Lao Cai's collar and yelled angrily, "What are you doing? Are you crazy? ……。 ”
Lao Cai's face was indifferent, and he seemed to be a little sad. He ignored my angry growl tugging at his collar, and just asked me softly, "Does it hurt?" ……。 ”
I was stunned, what does this mean? Do you still care if Lao Tzu hurts after beating Lao Tzu? Why did you go earlier?
But what suddenly occurred to me, it hurts? It doesn't seem to hurt at all.
Lao Cai spoke again, and he said, "It's right if it doesn't hurt, because it's fake at all." Are you willing to sink into dreams? Do you know how many people out there are worried about you? I didn't expect you to be such a coward, willing to indulge in the illusion of comfort, rather than willing to face reality. Are you worthy of your parents? Is it worthy of your grandfather? Are you worthy of all the people who care about you? ”
After listening to Lao Cai's words, I was silent. Is this a dream? Actually, I should have known it a long time ago, but I didn't want to believe it.
So I let go of Lao Cai's collar, lowered my head and said, "Is there a difference between dreaming and waking up?" I'm very comfortable here, and I have already had a choice about whether to go back or not. ”
Lao Cai finally broke out when he heard my words, he looked at me through gritted teeth, and scolded in his mouth: "You are just a bastard, a coward, a soft egg who is unwilling to face reality, you are not a man......." ”
Lao Cai scolded very ugly, but I didn't speak. Just turned around and went into the house.
In the house, my grandfather and Uncle Cheng were fighting wine, drinking glass after glass until both of them were red-faced. I quietly walked over to the table, then knelt down in front of my grandfather and kowtowed respectfully three times. Then he turned around and kowtowed three times in the direction of my parents.
They looked at me with puzzled expressions.
I looked at my grandfather and said, "Grandpa, your old man has worked so hard for me, but I have no way to repay you." In reality, you don't want to hear me say this, and I can't say it, but now I want to tell you. I don't deserve so much ...... you do for me. ”
When I had finished speaking, I stood up and pinched my fingers, and recited the Purifying Heart Mantra from my mouth.
Lingbao Tianzun, comforting the body
The soul of the disciple is the five internal organs
The green dragon and the white tiger, the team battles
Suzaku Xuanwu, guarding me.
I am ...... by the edict of the ancestors of the Three Qing Daoists.
As the spell ended, I seemed to see a smile on the corner of my "grandpa's" mouth.
At this moment, I felt the scene around me suddenly recede, as if a mysterious force was dragging me backwards. That familiar home grew farther and farther away from me, until it became a small point of light and disappeared completely. Eventually, my eyes were dark, and my consciousness was blurred.
……。
When I regained consciousness, the first thing I heard was a loud noise. I couldn't hear the content of the sounds, the various sounds came together, and when they reached my ears, they became buzzing noises.
I tried to open my eyes, but I couldn't control myself to do it.
It feels like the soul has not been completely fused out of the body, and it seems to be a ghost press that everyone often says.
I struggled to control my body, but in vain.
Finally, I don't know how long it took, but my consciousness was blurred again.
And when my consciousness reawakened, I found that I was able to control my body. The state of complete fusion of spirit and flesh made my brain dizzy, and my whole body felt like it was about to fall apart as if it was tightly wrapped in something.
When I opened my eyes, the glare outside the window still felt harsh. I had to close it and open it slowly.
Looking at the empty room, although it was completely different from the last time, the familiar smell of Western medicine still made me feel that this was the hospital.
I have to sigh that there is indeed a big gap between the bourgeoisie and the proletariat, and I can't help but recall a saying that sometimes the gap between people is greater than the gap between people and pigs. I have to say that this sentence is very reasonable.
Maybe it's because of Uncle Cheng's light, the ward I live in at this time is much more luxurious than the last time, big and bright, whether it is the bed under me or the decoration of the surrounding walls. Looking at the screen-like wall in the middle, I wondered, is there a bed for family members to accompany me?
Sure enough, I guessed correctly, because I had just come up with this idea, and Lao Cai and Uncle Cheng walked out of it. And next to the two of them, Lao Cai's master was actually there.
It was Lao Cai who made the first move, because the moment he saw my eyes open, Lao Cai rushed over, and he didn't give his father and his master a chance to react at all.
I saw Lao Cai san jumping to my bedside, and said to me with some joy and anger: "Xiaoli, you lied to me." I really thought you didn't want to come back, and you were worried about killing me...... ”
As he spoke, he touched the corners of his eyes again, and said to himself with tears and joy in his voice: "I know, I know ......." ”
I remembered when my consciousness was in that warm environment, when I seemed to meet Lao Cai, and he said to me: I should go back. Could it be that the person at that time was really Lao Cai?
I asked Lao Cai what my situation was now, and then Lao Cai looked at his master, and then said the next words.
It turned out that after I fainted that night, Lao Cai took the stick and really killed the dead eunuch. This surprised me, but I felt that it made sense. Because the dead eunuch at that time was also seriously injured by me, Lao Cai was really likely to kill the dead eunuch when he was protected by the amulet I gave him and held his peach stick stained with black dog blood.
But that's all in the past, so there's no need to dwell too much on it.
It's about the hand-to-hand fight I had with the dead eunuch that night, and the injuries I suffered were too serious. Because every time my body was scratched by a dead eunuch, its evil qi also entered my body with my wounds.
At first, I could barely support myself with my Dao Qi, but as I fought more fiercely with the dead eunuch, the Dao Qi in my body could no longer sustain, and its evil qi raged even more in my body.
In the end, what I couldn't hold back was the moment when I was stabbed in the back by the dead eunuch when I hugged each other and bit each other.
There was no doubt that the thing that pierced my back must have been the fingernails of a dead eunuch.
According to Lao Cai, almost all of the dead eunuch's five fingernails were sunk into my back. One of them almost pierced my heart, just a little bit.
But even if I was lucky, I didn't suffer lightly.
After Lao Cai killed the dead eunuch, he hurriedly called Uncle Cheng and sent me to the hospital. At that time, the county hospital was frightened when it received my patient, I looked like a thug who was cut in a fight, if it wasn't for Uncle Cheng's relationship, the hospital would have called the police a long time ago.
Later, he entered the emergency room of the hospital, and this rescue took four days. Lao Cai said that the doctors in the emergency room changed again and again, and the red light on the door never went out.
Finally, on the fifth day, I was transferred to the intensive care unit. The doctor said that my injuries were basically under control, but for unknown reasons, there was no sign of recovery. If I delay any longer, I'll probably be in a vegetative state. I suggested that Uncle Cheng transfer me to the city, and they could only do this.
Of course, Uncle Cheng listened to the doctor, and in this case he had no other way but to send me to a more qualified hospital.
It's really a coincidence, although this coincidence is a bit far-fetched, but it really happened.
Just when Uncle Cheng was making a decision, Lao Cai's master actually came back. He was given a brief admission to the intensive care unit for a visit. Lao Cai's master is also in his seventies, and in his words, he eats more salt than Lao Cai and I eat. Although this sentence cannot rule out that the sloppy old man is due to the reason of heavy taste, what he said is indeed right.
So even though he learned the arithmetic of cloth clothes, he has been friends with my grandfather for many years, and he knows a little bit about it.
He could see at a glance what I was doing.
I didn't wake up when my wound was basically treated. In fact, it is because the evil spirit of the dead eunuch still stays in my body. When the evil qi enters the body, the first thing to bear the brunt of is the life soul of one of the three souls.
As I've said before, once the soul is damaged, the chance of becoming a vegetative person is greatly increased.
Fortunately, I cultivated the Three Qing Talismans, and although the Dao Qi in my body was consumed before, it would still slowly regenerate.
In this way, the Dao Qi generated again will fight with the evil qi raging in my body, slightly slowing down the speed of the evil qi damaging the soul of life.
But if the Dao Qi is not replenished, it is like a cup that can never be filled. Without the support of a trace of Dao Qi, I couldn't wake up at all.
In this case, I have to be strong-willed. But at that time, I was indulging in the illusion of comfort, and I didn't have the slightest intention of waking up, so how could I wake up in this situation?
The situation seems to have reached a very serious point, because Lao Cai's master said that if I can't wake up again, I may not be able to wake up in this life. That means I'm going to be in a vegetative state.
It was Lao Cai's master who saw that I might have been affected by the evil qi of the dead eunuch, because as I said before, the dead eunuch had studied the illusion for a thousand years, so even its evil qi had this attribute.
I was so caught up in the illusions that the evil breath created I didn't want to wake up. So someone needs to come into my dreams and wake me up.
And Lao Cai's master needs to be assisted by spells, so the most suitable person is Lao Cai.
I thought about it from the time Lao Cai appeared in my dream, but I didn't expect that the first thing Lao Cai did after he went was to punch me.
According to Lao Cai, he couldn't think of any other way to prove that I was dreaming, so he came to do this. I asked him, can't you just talk to me properly?
Lao Cai smiled embarrassedly and said: "I just think that so many people outside are worried about you, but you are comfortably addicted to the environment, I feel uncomfortable, thinking that I can't hurt you anyway, so I ...... like this." ”
Lao Cai's logic makes me suspect that he actually just wants to beat me, but he can't find a chance in reality.
