Volume 1 Juvenile Journey Chapter 8 Embarking on a Wandering

"How is it possible! I have lived with my grandfather for decades! How can my grandfather not be human!" Su Changqing stood up violently, his face full of anger.

"You also know that you have lived with your grandfather for decades, so do you know how old your grandfather is this year?" the second child squinted his eyes and turned his head to look at Su Changqing.

Su Changqing pouted, "I don't know." ”

"Then didn't you notice that the people around you are getting older, Mrs. Wang's teeth are about to fall out, but your grandfather himself has not changed much? The second child chuckled and shook his head.

Su Changqing didn't speak for a long time, these words of the second child made Su Changqing suddenly unpredictable and suspicious of his grandfather, for so many years, Ning Zisheng had never told Su Changqing how old he had lived, Ning Zisheng's appearance had not paid careful attention to Su Changqing's appearance because of Su Changqing's young age, and now listening to the second child, his grandfather seems to have been like that since he can remember, but his hair gradually turned white.

"Then my grandfather can't harm everyone! For so many years, my grandfather has always been kind to me, and he has been treating everyone, he is not that kind of demon!" Changqing still can't believe that his grandfather, who gets along with him day and night, will be a demon, but everything that has happened so far has made him a little lacking in confidence.

"I didn't say he must be a demon, but these things must have something to do with your grandfather, and your grandfather must know something. The second child paused, and suddenly thought about it, "Hey, by the way, your grandfather is not dead, so where did your grandfather go?"

"My grandfather told me to go out to see a doctor, and left me a letter, and I read the contents of the letter, and it seems that he will not come back. Su Changqing drooped his head, his mind was a mess, and he still couldn't accept these sudden things.

"Hey, in other words, there is no one else here except you and me at the moment, so what do you plan to do in the future? The second child touched Su Changqing's head and added a glass of water for him.

"I want to get out, get out of here, and find grandpa. ”

The second child sat on the ground and looked outside in a daze, muttering a few words, "This person is gone, and I don't know if this town can go out." ”

"Old man, I used to be a beggar, I came to this town from outside wandering and begging, in my memory, there is a city outside, what is the name, old man, I forgot, I don't know if I haven't left here for decades, wait for you to try your luck, see if you can get out of this town now, after going out, follow the road, you can almost get to that city. ”

"What about you?" Su Changqing raised his head and looked at the second child, although he was not familiar with the second child, but now he was the only person alive here except himself, so he couldn't let go.

"I've lived enough, old man, I used to be bitter, I didn't have the next meal, I look forward to eating enough every day, and sleeping well on the warm kang! I also met some good people in this town, gave a mouthful of food, hung my life, and finally met you These thoughts have been done, originally thought that there are a lot of blessings, I want to enjoy the joy and happiness, but in the past few years guarding this Bodhisattva, I feel more and more liberated, no regrets, the old man I will stay here, continue to accompany this Bodhisattva, accompany these dead people, the coffin is ready for himself, and when he is dying, he will lie in. The second child touched the tattered Bodhisattva, raised his head, smiled in his mouth, and bent the folds of his face. Plain may be what the second child wants the most.

"Let's go, you go and pack up, old man, I'll accompany you to see this way, can I go out and give you a ride." The second child withdrew his hand, turned around and went to the back of the Bodhisattva, took out a small bag and put it on his body.

The two returned to Whitehorse together.

The fog had lifted, the sun was hanging high, and it was a red sun, if it had shone in the town before, not to mention how lively it would be.

But now, no matter how hot the daylight is, it can't suppress the gloom of the town.

"Is that all it for just one night? The second child picked up a few weeds, rubbed them in his hands, and remembered a lot of things when he looked at the deserted town.

"Hmm. Su Changqing nodded sadly and continued to walk towards his and his grandfather's pharmacy.

"In just one night, it's like a hundred years. The second child threw down the weeds and followed Su Changqing.

The two returned to the pharmacy, Su Changqing pushed open the door, and the two entered the pharmacy.

"Look at this scene, don't you believe that your grandfather is not simple. The second child looked around the house, everything in the town seemed to have been abandoned for several years, except for this pharmacy, everything seemed to have just been used by people, there were no weeds in the house, and Su Changqing's poisonous herbs were still scattered on the ground, without any traces of desertion.

Su Changqing didn't say a word, began to pack up the medicinal materials on the ground, found a package, and put them in one by one.

"Hey, you little doll, is it possible that you want to remove all the medicine from this pharmacy?"

"Then what should I do, these medicinal materials are very valuable, and my grandfather and I usually cherish them tightly. As he spoke, he continued to fill the package with medicinal herbs, and took two more without one package.

The second child hurriedly stepped forward and pulled out the bag in Su Changqing's hand, "You are going out to find someone, a livelihood, not to sell medicine, this is going out, of course, money and filling your stomach are the most important, you take so much medicine, is it possible that you have to live by taking medicine?"

Su Changqing scratched his head, "Then you say, what should I do?"

"Take out all your and your grandfather's money, take it, and get some dry food. The second child looked at Su Changqing angrily, and casually put the medicine bag in his hand on the ground.

Su Changqing hurriedly picked it up and put it on the medicine cabinet, packed up the silver needles left by Ning Zisheng, and found "Baiwei" and "Hard Scripture" to take together.

ran to the back room again and took out the silver taels left by Ning Zisheng.

The second child looked at the silver money in Su Changqing's hand, "You grandfather, you have been practicing medicine for so many years to save this money." ”

"After my grandfather saw a doctor, he usually collected the food and lived for others, and everyone didn't have much silver, so there wasn't much left. ”

"Bring all of them and get some dry food. After saying that, the second child went to find the kitchen and prepared to get some food for Su Changqing.

"Hey, what is this? It's pitch black, and it's still on a plate. The second child looked at the leftovers on the plate strangely, it was the meal that Su Changqing's grandfather had poisoned.

"Oh, you don't care, I'm pretty much packed. Su Changqing didn't want to say it, he was standing at the door, and he didn't know what to think.

The second child turned his head to look at Su Changqing, and his face immediately became extremely ugly, "I said, you are carrying this big bag and small bag, and you have no intention of looking for people to flee at all, and they all said that you should throw away those broken medicinal materials." ”

Su Changqing, who was standing at the door, resisted on his shoulders, around his waist, on his back, holding it in his hand, and hanging all the big bags and small bags on his body.

Su Changqing hesitated and didn't know what to throw. The second child was angry, so he walked over and said, "This, this, this, throw them all away." As he spoke, he threw a lot of packages to Su Changqing.

After packing their luggage, the two men took dry food and walked out of town.

"I didn't expect the way out really appeared, you are cautious outside, your wealth is not exposed, don't shake your money out casually, old man, I have been rolling in this world for more than ten years, and what I have learned is to coax a little, more is better than less, you should be more careful when you venture out on your own. The second child took Su Changqing and the two of them on the trail.

Su Changqing didn't say a word and walked in a daze. There are still a lot of things on her body, and she is very stubborn, picking up the medicinal materials left and right, and finally she still has to bring some medicinal materials, and the second child can't resist her, so she has nothing to say.

The two of them walked around for a while, but the way out was really found, and they didn't go back to the town.

"Okay, let's go here, I won't send the old man, you can go from here, if the old man and I remember correctly, follow this road from here, you can get to the city, this is also for you." The two walked to the intersection, and the second child stopped to look at Su Changqing, and took out a small pocket from his arms as he spoke.

"What is this?" Su Changqing looked at the pocket in the old second-hand hand.

"This is the money that my old man has left over in the past few years, it's useless for me to keep the old man, take it to the coffin sooner or later, you take it, go out and use it outside." The second child said and stuffed his pocket into Su Changqing's hand.

"Let's go, live well. The second child touched Su Changqing's head and smiled.

"Thank you. Su Changqing took his pocket and saluted the second child.

Seeing Su Changqing put down his pocket, the second child turned around and slowly went back, waving his hand behind his back, "Let's go, if you come back in the future, the temple is still there, help me thank the Bodhisattva." ”

The figure of the second child carrying his back became smaller and smaller, and slowly disappeared from Su Changqing's field of vision.

Su Changqing wiped the tears in his eyes, the second child is afraid that he is Su Changqing's last relative, with many years of experience in studying medicine, Su Changqing has long seen that his health is already poor, and he is afraid that there will be only a few days.

"Goodbye, everyone! Grandpa, I will definitely find you, and when the time comes, I will ask you in person if these things have anything to do with you!"

After packing his bags, the boy embarked on a wandering.
