Chapter 349: Forgiveness
Huanhuan is already one of the dogs in Panjiayuan in Lijiazhai, it barked along the road, and immediately got many responses, and where it passed, the dogs in the village barked like a wave swept by, leaving their homes and rushing to the road, following behind it the mighty river dam, rushing to the opposite mountain, like a wolf pack.
The sudden and mighty momentum alarmed not only the dogs, but also the people who had fallen asleep. Hearing that the dogs in the village went out collectively, roared and drifted away, went to the opposite mountain, the people who were a little more vigilant got up and went out of the house, looking at the direction where the dogs went, some wondered if there were thieves in the village again, and were found by the dogs and chased to the mountain, and the people with higher alertness and judgment quickly thought of something from the direction of the dogs.
Realizing that it was under the big mountain forest, more precisely, the ancestral tomb of the Pan family, what happened to the place where Pan Guanghai's daughter-in-law was buried, there was the village chief of the Pan family, who was already one year old. Woke up from the sudden burst of barking by the dogs, he knew that it was not the thief in the stockade again, because no matter how powerful the thief was, it was impossible for him to run so fast, and there was no sound in the whole process, the key is that he also heard that the first bark was made by my big yellow dog Huanhuan, and the dog in the stockade responded to its call and ran to the mountain with it, plus the location of the dogs, it was quickly accurately judged that it was very likely that I went to the mountain again tonight, and something happened there, will cause such a big sensation in the dog group.
Many people, including the village party secretary who lives in the dam and Pan Changhong at the top of Panjiayuan Dazhai, are thinking about whether to make a phone call to ask my family if something happened in the middle of the night, and they heard the sound of rapid and dull footsteps, which came from far and near above Lijiazhai with the light of the flashlight.
The old village chief's house is on the road, so he can naturally hear the sound for the first time, and when he sees that he is coming down from the top of Lijiazhai, he immediately knows that there is no need to call and ask again, there must be something urgent. I hurriedly left my yard, and before I got off the road, I saw that it was my dad running along the road with a flashlight, panting, and vaguely saw my mother also following far behind with a flashlight.
Seeing that he was about to rush through the intersection of his own road and run into the river below, without seeing himself at all, the old village chief hurriedly stopped him and asked loudly: "Boss, what are you running in a hurry, is something wrong?" ”
"My family is thinking about the mountains, and I am very panicked, I am afraid that something has happened, and I have to hurry to see it." When my dad heard someone calling, he looked back and saw that it was the old village chief, and slowed down his running speed a little.
The old village chief's face couldn't help but change slightly, and he was about to ask more details, but my father had already turned around and ran away, so he had to stop the words that had come to his mouth. After a while, my mother also trotted over with slightly red eyes, and saw that it was my grandfather who was behind her, and the old village chief immediately understood the seriousness of the matter, and did not stop my mother from talking, and after letting her pass, he went down to the horse path and greeted my grandfather.
"Boss Li, what's going on? Why did the family run to the mountain in a hurry in the middle of the night? We're old, our legs and feet are not good, and we can't keep up with their young people, so don't worry, tell me what the situation is first, and then we will go up the mountain together, the road is dark and blind, you follow like this, don't get to the place yet, you fall first. ”
Seeing that his old partner stopped him from asking, he was already a little out of breath, and his grandfather, who was thrown away by his mother for a distance, immediately slowed down and stopped, and after gasping for breath, he sighed and said: "I don't know what happened, I dreamed that my little thought was covered in blood and fell on the mountain, and there was a hole in the back of the skull......
After saying that, he breathed a sigh of relief, took another step, and was about to continue walking into the dam.
Covered in blood and with a hole in the back of his head......
Listening to such words, the old village chief couldn't help but be stunned, the whole person was a little frozen, and when he reacted, my grandfather had already gasped and walked out forty or fifty meters, and when he saw this, he hurriedly chased him and pulled him, asked him to wait for himself, trotted back from the hand of his wife who had heard the news, took the flashlight and mobile phone, and walked down the road with him to the river dam.
When my father finally came to the mountain bay sweaty, the dogs that had already come here were already barking, scattered around the thatched hut, looking a little frightened, and very angry, especially the big yellow dog Huanhuan's thicker barking was full of grief and indignation.
Hearing Huanhuan make such a cry, my father's heart suddenly sank, knowing that something was really wrong, he couldn't take a breath, and hurriedly quickened his pace, and ran to the innermost part of the mountain bay on the narrow and steep path by the canal.
When I came to the bottom of the grass hut, before I had time to climb up, I first smelled a faint smell of blood from the air, and with a gloomy face, I took three steps and made two steps to climb up, and I first saw a big cat as black as ink, as big as a dog, lying in a pool of blood, and after getting closer, I saw me lying in the grass again. Huanhuan, the big yellow dog, was wandering around me anxiously, barking very sadly, and three or four of the village hounds were barking wildly around the carcass of the big cat, and from time to time they pounced on it and bit it.
And Dad, they always thought that the old man on the mountain was coming, but he was completely gone.
Striding over the corpse of the murderous cat, the flashlight hit me, and seeing that I was almost covered in blood, my clothes were about to be torn into strips of cloth, my face was pale, and there was no trace of blood, my father couldn't help but stumble slightly under his feet, and quickly squatted down next to me after stabilizing himself.
Luckily, what my grandfather saw in his dream was a hole in the back of my head, and the horror of my brain splashing didn't happen. Although I was indeed covered in blood, and it didn't seem to be in any of the places, and there was indeed a bag bulging out of the back of my head, and a small opening in the middle was bleeding out, and my breath was very weak, but compared to the hopeless situation that my grandfather dreamed of, there was still qi, and it was undoubtedly much better.
After a cursory examination and finding that my condition was not as serious as it seemed at first glance, my father squatted down and carefully lifted me up, put it on his shoulder, and then got up and carried me down the hill.
Before I got out of the mountain bay, I encountered a flashlight that had disappeared, covered in mud and water, and it was my mother who came to the mountain in the dark. Seeing that I was really injured, but still angry, after a short panic, my mother regained her composure, took the flashlight from my father's hand, helped me to light it up in the back, and walked down the mountain together.
When I went down to the middle of the mountain, I met Pan Changhong, who was carrying a stretcher and catching up with the grandfather and the old village chief who set off first, and several other younger Pan family men.
When I woke up from my coma, it was already 7:00 p.m. the next day, and the news network had just finished broadcasting the first important news, and the place where I was located was not my home, but the county hospital. A large family and the village chief of the Pan family were guarding me outside the ward, and Zhang Xiaoweiyun's sister Yuan Jinzhu and them had also rushed over from the provincial capital.
Seeing that I finally woke up, everyone's hanging hearts finally let go to varying degrees. Although before I woke up, the doctors and nurses had repeatedly said that although my injuries seemed to be many, lacerations and blunt force blows, they were actually not very serious, most of them were only flesh wounds, and did not hurt the internal organs, muscles and bones, and there were no signs of cerebral hemorrhage in the head, that is, I received some blows, and the blood loss was a little too much, and after the operation, it would not take too long to wake up, but suddenly such a big change happened, and my parents and parents were already scared, as long as they didn't really wake up, How can it really be reassuring.
The old man, who disappeared after beating me unconscious, and didn't know where he went, returned home shortly after dawn, when his family had already sent me to the hospital overnight, and I was in the operating room, and there was no one at home, so Pan Guanglong drove me to the hospital.
While I was in a coma and waiting to wake up, the old man did not say anything about my injuries, and my parents, although they were puzzled by the blunt force injuries that were almost all over my body, saw that the old man's face was not very good, and he was reluctant to say much, and my injuries were not serious enough to be fatal, so they did not ask much.
The open wound can also be understood as the fact that I was scratched and bitten by this thing when I encountered the big black cat that looked very terrible, but the blunt force blows all over the body could not be understood as the cat's cause. Judging from the shape and the degree of compensation, it is only possible to think, but who did it is only me and the old man who can know, and others can not guess at all.
As long as the old man and I don't say anything, even my parents will never think that it was the old man who did it.
Of course, I don't have the slightest intention of telling the truth. After all, I did make a mistake that is difficult to forgive, although it is now a modern society, but the door rules are the door rules, and it can't be said that because it's not ancient, the traditional things are no longer taken seriously, not to mention that the old man just beat me up, even if he really tried to clean up the door and beat me to death, he can't blame him, and I can only blame myself.
The moment I regained consciousness and found that I could still wake up, I knew that the old man had finally forgiven me, or that he just wanted to teach me a deep enough lesson from the beginning, and he didn't really plan to clean up the portal and beat me to death, otherwise I would never have done it, and after so many blows, it was only flesh and blood wounds, and basically nothing hurt my muscles and bones. Therefore, there is naturally no need to let the third person know about this matter, just bury it in the hearts of our masters and apprentices.
Only Yuan Jinzhu may have thought of something when he received the news, and he had mentioned it to the two women more or less when he came, so he came directly to the hospital, and after seeing the old man, his attitude towards him was much more respectful and restrained than before. Until I woke up and was able to speak, this kind of faint respect with isolation and alienation did not dissipate, even Yuan Jinzhu, who had followed the old man for nearly two months and experienced a lot of things with him that I didn't know, also carried this feeling to some extent, no longer like before.
Although there is no place in my body that does not hurt and I can't move, my consciousness is clear enough that I can naturally perceive the existence of this sense of alienation. Not only the three people who came from the provincial capital, but in fact, even the parents who didn't know the inside story, but knew that the old man must know, also had some opinions about him in their hearts because of the old man's silence, but they didn't show it.
Naturally, I couldn't let this subtle atmosphere continue, and I didn't want to see more for even a minute, so after relieving myself for a while and feeling a little better, I asked Zhang Xiaowei to help me put the pillow a little higher so that I could speak, squeeze out a smile, and called out to the silent old man with some weakness: "Master." ”
Listening to my master, the old man was obviously slightly stunned, and he didn't know if he thought I had a complaint in my heart and would never call him again, or if it was caused by other feelings in my heart.
"Take care of your injuries, boy, your injuries this time are not light, you just woke up and it's not suitable to talk too much, if you have anything to say, it's not too late to talk to the teacher when you're well." After watching me be silent for two seconds, the old man nodded lightly.
Although there was no change on the surface, I could clearly see that at this moment, the light in the old man's eyes softened a lot.
People's hearts are flesh and blood, even if there are thousands of thunder and sky-high anger in their hearts, before Fang Cai, they may also have contradictions about whether to continue to recognize me as a disciple, but at this moment, they are all wiped out because of just a few words, and there is nothing left, all that remains is the same as the previous bad old man's concern for a hairy boy.
Between Leng Sensen's door rules, mission and tenderness full of warmth, or family affection, the old man finally chose the latter and chose to completely forgive me.
It's good if you are willing to recognize me as a disciple, and if you are willing to recognize me as a disciple......
Thinking of this, there was actually more or less resentment in my heart, and it suddenly disappeared completely, and I laughed from the bottom of my heart, even though I grinned in pain and felt hearty.
"Thank you, Master, disciple...... It will definitely get better as soon as possible and will not disappoint you. ”
After looking at me for two seconds, the old man became kind to me for a rare moment, smiled and nodded. Ever since I started to get started in the art of drawing spirituality, and people have become sensible, the old man has been less and less kind to me, and most of the time he has not had a good face.
Now that I have successfully sobered up and can talk and laugh, so many people naturally have no need to stay in the hospital, so after making arrangements, everyone dispersed and went home, leaving only three from the provincial capital, one small and four people and my mother to accompany me in the hospital.
