Chapter 40: The Man Above

The young man, when he was leaving, he specially told the old patriarch.

His name is Wang Jueming.

Listening to Lao Yu talk about this, Wang Blind and I suddenly glanced at each other.

If it weren't for the repetition of the name, wouldn't the old patriarch save that Wang Jueming, wouldn't he be the grandfather of the blind man?

Counting the time again, a hundred years ago, Wang's blind grandfather happened to be in his twenties.

Moreover, judging from Lao Yu's description, Wang Jueming's injuries from being bitten by cave bats at that time seem to be exactly the same as the injuries on the back of Wang's blind man's hands now.

Since Wang Jueming can be cured, then the blind man should be saved.

The blind man wanted to ask something, but I motioned for him not to speak yet.

We sat in the store and listened to Lao Yu continue to say:

When Wang Jueming was recuperating in the mountains before, he told the old patriarch that he lived in Qingshen County, which was more than 100 kilometers away from Dongshan County.

So, the old patriarch went down the mountain this time and went directly to Qingshen County.

The mountains are isolated from the world, and the old patriarch has only gone down the mountain with his father once more than forty years ago.

Now that he is in his seventies, he feels like a world away from before when he goes down the mountain again.

He carried dry food in his arms, and when he was thirsty, he drank some water from the river by the roadside.

The old patriarch went all the way west and finally arrived in Qingshen County.

When he entered the county seat, he saw a lot of people on the road, all of whom were talking to each other, looking into the middle of the street and then turning their heads to say something to the others.

The old patriarch also wanted to squeeze in to see what was going on.

At this moment, he heard someone next to him saying: "This Wang Jueming, who is young, doesn't learn well, what kind of revolutionary party is it, now it's okay, put your life into it......"

Hearing the words "Wang Jueming", the old patriarch's head exploded.

He leaned over to ask about the situation, but before he could speak, the men came into him dressed strangely and looked him up and down as if they were looking at a monster.

In the end, they ignored him and walked away.

It took a lot of effort for the old patriarch to finally stand in front of the crowd.

A row of people with signs on their heads, shackles around their necks, and thick chains on their feet.

Under the push and shove of the officials, they are moving forward with difficulty.

It took the old patriarch a long time to finally discover Wang Jueming.

At this moment, his thin body was covered with blood, and with every step he took, his thin body was trembling slightly, and it could be seen that his actions were very difficult.

"Wang Jueming......"

The old patriarch screamed hard as he approached.

Hearing this voice, Wang Jueming was stunned for a moment.

He looked around and also spotted the old patriarch in the crowd.

Opening his mouth slightly, Wang Jueming wanted to say something, but the official beside him stepped back and said two words at him loudly: "Hurry up!" ”

Wang Jueming stumbled and almost fell to the ground.

The footprints on the ground were deep and shallow, full of blood, and shocking.

The old patriarch tried to squeeze over and say something to him, but Wang Jueming shook his head at him and motioned for him not to come.

The official pushed him, and Wang Jueming smiled at the old patriarch and continued to walk forward.

Looking at the back of Wang Jueming's departure, the old patriarch was anxious, and he didn't know what to do.

It was almost noon, so the old patriarch found a nearby noodle shop and sat down, and after putting down his luggage, he ordered himself a bowl of somen noodles and ate it.

The noodle shop owner saw that the old patriarch was dressed strangely, so he sat down and chatted with him.

While the old patriarch was eating noodles, he asked Wang Jueming, the owner of the noodle shop, what was the situation with those people.

Seeing that the other party asked this question, the noodle shop owner's expression changed for a moment, and he looked left and right before saying:

"The matter above, is it a person like them who should be in charge, a person with no status and no background, and dares to rebel, isn't it normal for him to have an accident, how normal is it?!"

The old patriarch didn't understand the words of the noodle shop owner at all.

The only thing he cares about now is what will happen to Wang Jueming.

The owner of the store sneered again: "Actually, he can not die." ”

"How?" The old patriarch raised his eyes.

The owner of the noodle shop leaned over and said, "Dendrobium, have you heard of it?" ”

The old patriarch was stunned.

"That thing is called fairy grass again, but it's worth a lot! I heard that the price of one pound is a hundred. And this thing is hard to find, and what you buy with money is a fake. ”

"What does this have to do with Wang Jueming?" The old patriarch craned his neck and continued to ask.

"Doesn't that matter?" The owner of the noodle shop looked left and right again, and continued to whisper: "I heard that when he was arrested, I turned out some dendrobium from his house, and someone who knew how to read it and said it was true. ”

"That ......"

"This thing is a good thing, the person above said that as long as he can tell where he got this dendrobium, he can open up to him."

"He ......"

He just wouldn't say it, that mouth was really tight, and he couldn't pry it. Now, I've the people above, and I'm going to kill them! ”

After saying this, the innkeeper left, leaving the old patriarch to sit at the table, looking at the half bowl of noodles left in the bowl, and he couldn't eat a bite.

Walking alone on the streets of Qingshen County, the old patriarch didn't know who to look for.

The so-called "person above" in the mouth of the noodle shop owner is not clear to the old patriarch.

The reason why Wang Jueming didn't say where the dendrobium was, was because of the words of the old patriarch.

At that time, when Wang Jueming was sent away, the old patriarch told him not to talk about the affairs of the mountain village, for fear of affecting the normal life of the mountain people.

What's more, the dendrobium is expensive, if it is known that there is a place on the East Mountain, the people of that tribe will not be at peace in the future.

Wang Jueming must have died because of this, so he was unwilling to die, and told where the dendrobium came from.

That's why it's life-threatening.

The old patriarch felt guilty.

He wanted to find the "person above" and begged to see if he could let Wang Jueming go.

It's really not good, so he told the story of Dendrobium, but he couldn't let such a young child lose his life.

Walking down the street, the old patriarch searched everywhere.

Maybe if you find a servant and ask, you can find out who the "person above" is.

As he was walking, someone suddenly stepped forward and grabbed the old patriarch's clothes and walked forward.

The man walked very fast, and the old patriarch only felt the sound of whirring wind in his ears, and his feet seemed to no longer belong to him.

After a while, the man saw the old patriarch pulled into a corner.

After stopping, the old patriarch saw clearly that the one who was walking with him just now was actually an old woman.

The old woman's face was full of wrinkles, and her body was hunched and she looked very old.

The old patriarch asked her who she was,

She only smiled at the old patriarch: "Don't care who I am, I can help you save Wang Jueming, you can go back with peace of mind." ”
