In the second volume, Xuanhai Immortal Mountain_Chapter 90, the old man died of illness
On the day I returned to Shanghai, it was drizzling, and the train station was crowded, so I walked down the train with my bag on my back, followed by a group of people. The granddaughters of Professor Shen and Shen Mengtian walked in the middle of the line. When I was about to walk to the exit, I lit a cigarette, turned around and said, "Brothers, let's separate here, Brother Yong, you take your 507 people back to report first, it's useless to go after the Xuanhai has sunk." Unless the state spends a lot of effort to exploit it, but there is no need, according to me, if the treasure in the Xuanhai Sea does not want to be seen, it will definitely not be able to be taken out. ”
The only thing I could have gained from this trip was me, because I came back with a big faucet, although it was very inconvenient, but it was really worth it.
"Okay, take care. I'll come to you when we're settled. Brother Yong nodded and left with the people.
The rest are the old and the young of the Shen family, as well as the little demon who has been following Shen Mengtian, and I have never told anyone else the true identity of the little guy. If Shi Bing and the others knew that this little guy was a young gale, they would most likely be brought back to the 507 Institute for research, and the rest of the days would be much more miserable. And the little guy also looks very clingy, he has been following Shen Mengtian all the time, and even Shen Mengtian has to wait outside when he goes to the toilet. It's like a homeless puppy......
"What about this kid?" Shen Mengtian took the child's hand and asked.
I hesitated for a moment and then said, "I can only take you back, this kid seems to be inseparable from you, and it just so happens that Professor Shen is also an expert in the study of the demon clan, and the kid can still study his research by the way when he is by his side." But ......"
There was a pause. I thought for a moment before saying, "It's a demon after all, you'd better be on guard, if there is any situation or problem, call me in time, and I'll deal with it." ”
"Don't worry, this child is very kind, I believe that demons and children are the same, with a naturally pure heart." Some people are naturally kind, even if they are old, they will not change that kind heart, Shen Mengtian is such a person, it is natural to do so, I smiled and didn't speak, Shen Mengtian pulled the child and walked out, I saw a group of people standing not far from the station, and the leader was the secretary of Mr. Xu, whom I had seen in the past, and it seemed that he had arranged to pick up people.
Shen Mengtian and the child walked in front, and Professor Shen suddenly walked up to me. He whispered, "Minibus, you can come to me if you have time recently!" If you go out to catch demons, earth beasts, and the like, just tell me, take me to see and see, as for my precious granddaughter, you're not young, if you can, wouldn't it be nice to come and talk more? ”
He seems to really like me. The old man's ideas are quite avant-garde, and he doesn't dislike me for doing this kind of business, and he wants me and his granddaughter to be good.
I smiled awkwardly and said, "Fight for it, you're worried on the road." ”
He nodded, waved his hand and followed Shen Mengtian's pace, and after watching them leave, I smoked a cigarette and said, "Xiao Luo, did you call the fat man?" ”
"I've beaten it, I said that I would go back to Shanghai at this point today, and let Brother Cui pick us up, why haven't we arrived yet?"
Luo Qiong looked at the clock on the wall of the hall and said strangely.
I didn't expect to say Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived. I saw the fat man walking by, but when I looked at him, I saw that he was wearing a black and red cloth on his arm.
Just at a glance, I knew that something had happened to the fat man's family!
The old man still didn't survive this hurdle, he was old, and the injuries left by his youth, we actually guessed this day early on, but we just chose not to face it on purpose, but it still came after all.
The fat man on the road drove the car, his face was gloomy, and he didn't talk much, but he simply asked about the process of the trip. I didn't say much. There was a gloomy flow in his sunken eyes, and sadness was written on his face, and I could understand his pain, and I sat in the back row and asked softly, "Why did the old man leave?" ”
"You can't do it the next day after you secretly set off. The hospital gave us a critical illness notice, and then we had surgery the next day. The uncle found his grandfather's old relationship in the past and invited a specialist for consultation. But the effect of the surgery is still not good. After a day, it didn't work again, and this rescue dragged on for a few days, and the old heart was completely weakened, and it took several days to rescue. The old man still didn't resist and walked away......"
Even though he used to fight all his life, he still lost to illness in the end. How many heroes have killed everywhere, but when they die, they are full of pain and powerlessness.
I gave the fat man a cigarette, patted him on the shoulder, and whispered, "Mourn." ”
In this way, when I came back, it was just a few days before the funeral, the house was a little messy, there were a lot of people who came to see them off, wreaths were piled up everywhere, the fat man's uncle next to the mourning hall was sitting in linen and filial piety, and there were a few people I didn't know the identity but thought it should be the elders of the fat family. The fat man took us to the incense, bowed, and then arranged for us to sit aside, and according to the rules, we went back first after eating the white noodles. Come back on the day of the funeral. The old man's body has been handed over to the funeral company to deal with, Luo Qiong and I are sitting, this room is not the first time we have been here, but a few days have been very strange.
There were a lot of people I didn't know sitting in the room, and after a while, the fat man's uncle came over, sat next to me, crossed his legs, and said, "Zhen'er's parents are rushing back from out of town, and it is estimated that the day of the funeral will arrive." It's been a busy few days at home. I can't take care of you. ”
"It's fine." Luo Qiong hurriedly shook his head and said.
As he was talking, a few people in military uniforms walked in outside, and the fat man's uncle hurriedly greeted him, and Luo Qiong and I didn't move. After glancing at it, he said, "It's a big deal." ”
"How can you see that?" Luo Qiong asked strangely.
"Don't you know if you look at your shoulder?" I replied casually. In fact, I thought that the old man's identity must be very special a long time ago, if he was only a veteran, he would not be cared for by so many old chiefs, and sometimes we could even see the chief's car parked in front of the house. It looks like I'm coming to see the old man. Not only that, when I did the three-edged thorn five years ago, it was a military melee weapon, and the old man said that he would get it. It's not a little deep.
The people who came to incense today are all people with heads and faces, and everyone here is polite, Luo Qiong and I naturally hid behind, but it didn't take a while. A young man who looked like a guard came over, and after seeing me and Luo Qiong, he said, "Do you know which one is Cui Zhen?" ”
Looking for a fat man? I paused, looked up, and said, "He's not here, you tell me something." I'll just tell you. ”
"Oh, some things have been stored here by Cui Lao, and now I want to get them back, please contact Cui Zhen for details. Here is the address and phone. The other person handed over a note and left.
I looked down at the note, and the address on it was not simple, it was the address of a certain station.
They have something to put here with the old man? I thought it was strange. Why didn't the old man come to ask for it when he was alive, but now he is gone? I'm afraid there are some secrets in between. However, after all, this is the matter of the old Cui family, and I am not from this family. After seeing the fat man, he handed him the note, and after explaining a few words, the fat man said that the day after tomorrow would arrange a big funeral, so let's come early to help. Luo Qiong and I went back to the base.
At night, the two of us who hadn't slept well for a long time rested early, and Luo Qiong started snoring after a while, but I was still sleepy. I couldn't sleep, so I just went up to the rooftop and lay on the rooftop to look out, the air after the rain was very fresh, and the breeze was very comfortable. My brother and I are getting older day by day, and to be honest, I'm thinking about whether I should work like this with my head pinned to my belt all the time. If I think about it, the business I took over in five years is not a little more difficult than it was five years ago, and the small business is no longer done, although the big business is too dangerous to make money quickly. I'm still a little confused about my memories and auditory hallucinations and hallucinations, but if I've made enough money, can I stop here?
Both the fat man and Luo Qiong have a certain amount of savings, as long as they don't use it indiscriminately, they will be able to live a serious life with this money in the future, and they will not be poor.
Perhaps, I should take my two brothers back to ordinary life......
