After Wang Houshi and Xi Linming left the Guigu Cave, they walked for a while, and everything seemed to return to its original calm. At this time, Xi Linming said: "Husband, let's go back and go into the cave to bury his biological mother, so that she is the mother of this child." ”

"You're right. ”

They returned to the vicinity of the Guigu Cave and observed everything around them, and there was indeed no movement, so they came to the entrance of the Guigu Cave with peace of mind. They put down the firewood on their backs and took the baby boy into the cave again.

After they entered the hole. When it was found that the woman was gone, a grave appeared next to the big bluestone, and there was a deep pit next to the grave, and it was clear that this new grave was the grave of the dead woman.

"It seems that this new tomb must have been made by the man with the sword into the cave, and this deep pit was also dug by him for the purpose of extracting earth, and he must have had a great deal to do with this woman. ”

"Yes, could it be that the man with the sword is the husband of this woman? They were hunted down by the enemy and had to hide in this hole?"

"It's all a mystery, when this kid grows up, let him unravel it if possible. ”

Xi Linming kowtowed to the grave and said, "This is your mother, please let her bless you under the Nine Springs." ”

"In the future, we can bring this child here often to worship. Wang Houshi said.

Xi Linming nodded, and then left the Guigu Cave.

He went all the way down the hill to the hut at the bottom of their mountain.

Early the next morning, Wang Houshi said to his lady Xi Linming: "I had a strange dream last night, in which I saw a white-haired old man, who asked me to name the baby boy I brought back from the cave with the ......word 'Heng'. Xi Linming called out the word "Heng" almost at the same time.

Wang Houshi was surprised and asked, "How do you know?"

"You may as well say that I had the same dream as you, so I know the name of the baby boy. ”

"That's exactly the strange, the two of them have the same dream? I think this name is very good, in the future, we will call him Heng'er, and add my surname in front of it, that is 'Wang Heng'er'." The word 'constant' is used well, he should be able to grow up healthily and live a long life. ”

"Yes, this child is named after the Immortal Gang, and he will definitely have a future in the future. ”

Because Xi Linming had no milk, they could only feed Heng'er with corn soup. Heng'er grew up, but he was weak and often sick. They lived in seclusion at the foot of the mountain, with neither medical treatment nor medicine, but fortunately, every time Heng'er got sick, within a few days, he would heal himself. Wang Houshi and Xi Linming both believed that the child might be born prematurely, and her mother gave birth to him before term, because of congenital deficiency, and the body will definitely be thin in the future.

In a blink of an eye, Heng'er was four years old, although he was thin and small, and he spoke late, but since he babbled and could call him "Daddy" and other words, Wang Houshi and Xi Linming loved him very much.

"Although this child has grown thinner, he is not disabled after all, and when he grows up, if he can't learn martial arts, let him learn literature. Wang Houshi looked at Wang Heng'er who was faltering and said.

Xi Linming nodded on the side.

Early in the morning, a red sun rose on the side of the mountain, and Wang Houshi, as usual, had a simple breakfast, and went out of the house, ready to work in the field.

Xi Linming ran out of the house in a panic, and she said to Wang Houshi: "Husband, what do you think happened to Heng'er?"

"Ah, haven't you been sick for a long time, this ......" He threw down his farm tools and hurried into the house with Xi Linming.

Heng'er, who was lying on the bed, was pale, his teeth were clenched very tightly, his mouth was foaming, and his body was twitching from time to time. Wang Houshi looked at it and couldn't help but exclaim: "Not good!"

He has studied martial arts and knows some acupuncture points on his body, so he pinched Heng'er's acupoint with his fingers, but he didn't see any improvement in Heng'er for a while, and he remembered that there was a spring acupoint on the soles of his feet, so he said to Xi Linming: "You come to pinch his human acupoint, and I will pinch the Yongquan acupoint on the center of his foot." ”

"Good. Xi Linming quickly took Heng'er's acupoint, and pinched it vigorously on Heng'er's acupoint with his fingers, while Wang Houshi pinched Heng'er's Yongquan acupoint on the center of his feet with both hands.

After a long time, Heng'er gradually stopped convulsing. Wang Houshi and Xi Linming saw that Heng'er had improved, but they still didn't dare to relax and continued to pinch Heng'er's acupuncture points. After about a quarter of an hour, the white foam in Heng'er's mouth disappeared and gradually returned to normal.

"Dad!mother!" Heng'er finally spoke.

Wang Houshi and Xi Linming were relieved when they heard Heng'er calling them, and slowly let go of the acupuncture points and fingers pinched on Heng'er's body.

"Heng'er, are you feeling better? You're like this, your father and mother are about to scare you to death. Wang Houshi said.

"Dad, mother, I'm fine. Heng'er said in a very weak voice.

Xi Linming found the cold sweat on Heng'er's body, and said: "Heng'er, you just came back to your senses, and now you are still very weak, your sweat, my mother wiped it with hot water for you." ”

Heng'er nodded obediently.

"Heng'er, how are you feeling now?"

"I feel like my body is burning and my head still hurts. ”

"Oh, reach over and let me take your pulse. ”

Although Wang Houshi has never studied medicine, after he was seriously injured, he had learned to take the pulse from the doctor, so he can still know a little bit about the general pulse image.

Heng'er stretched out his left hand to Wang Houshi's side, and Wang Houshi put his hand on Heng'er's pulse, and found that Heng'er's pulse was like a grandiose, as if the flood was pouring down, which was the so-called "flood pulse", which was a fever.

At this time, Xi Linming came to Heng'er with a basin of hot water and wiped Heng'er's body. As soon as Xi Linming stretched out his hand, he felt that his whole body was hot.

After Wang Houshi took Heng'er's pulse, he put his hand on Heng'er's forehead.

"Heng'er is having a high fever. Wang Houshi said.

"Yes, he's hot. Xi Lin Ming said.

"Dad, mother, Heng'er has been in poor health, if it really doesn't work, forget it, I think I will be a waste person when I grow up, and it will be more troublesome for you to save it." "Heng'er is very sensible and authentic.

Wang Houshi and Xi Linming couldn't smile bitterly when they heard that this four-year-old child could say things like adults, and they couldn't believe it.

"Don't talk nonsense, you won't have an afterthought. Even if you are a wasted person, we will never give up on you, you will always be our child. Xi Linming hurriedly said.

After hearing this, Heng'er was deeply moved and burst into tears.

After a while, Heng'er's face gradually turned red, his lips were chapped, and small red beans grew on his face and body, although he did not twitch and foam like just now, but he entered a coma again, unconscious, and the high fever did not go away.

A day has passed, and Heng'er is still like that, with no signs of improvement.

Wang Houshi and Xi Linming were as anxious as ants on a hot pot, and they didn't know what to do.

Wang Houshi thought that Heng'er must have a heat poison in his body, and if he didn't remove it in time, his life would be in danger. He suddenly remembered that during his treatment of serious injuries, he had heard the military doctor say, "It is called fighting poison with poison." Say.

Anyway, you should give it a try, Wang Houshi immediately remembered to give Heng'er a try using poisonous insects as medicine. So he caught some centipedes, spiders, scorpions, clams, and other poisonous insects next to the house, killed them, wrapped them in leaves, and said to Xi Linming: "You put them together and fry them into soup and give them to Heng'er to drink." ”

Xi Linming looked at Wang Houshi curiously, she thought, what kind of good things can be fried into soup and can cure Heng'er's illness? He took the leaf bag, opened it, and was startled when he saw these poisonous insects, and said, "How can these things be used to make Heng'er decoction soup? These are all poisonous insects?"

"This time, Heng'er is sick, not as good as before, it doesn't seem to be so easy to get better. Give him a try, and maybe save his life. ”

Xi Linming thought about it, since they lived in seclusion here, there were few people in a radius of eight hundred miles, let alone going to a doctor, it was difficult to find a family, and it was better to try this than to wait for death.

After a while, Xi Linming fried the soup of those poisonous insects, paid for it himself, he couldn't say what the taste was, and quickly spit it out, and then brought it to Heng'er's side.

Heng'er was still in a deep coma, so Wang Houshi and Xi Linming slowly poured the soup into Heng'er.

About an hour, a miracle happened, Heng'er's face gradually returned to normal, and the red beans all over her body showed signs of disappearing.

Xi Linming was surprised: "The soup of this poisonous insect is indeed effective, you can see that the red beans on Heng'er's body are obviously less." Husband, how did you know that the acupuncture points on your body and this poisonous insect soup can cure Heng'er's illness. ”

"This is all when I was healing, I heard the military doctor say that I might as well give it a try, but I didn't expect it to work. ”

"Oh, I see. ”

"Dad, mother, what are you talking about?" Heng'er woke up and saw her parents talking, so she asked.

"Heng'er, are you awake?" Wang Houshi and Xi Linming shouted almost at the same time.

"Hum, I seem to be in a dream, in the dream I went into a black hole, came to the end of the black hole, and found that the end of the black hole is an abyss that leads to a bottomless abyss, I can no longer walk, if I take another step forward, I will fall into the bottomless abyss. When I was about to retreat, a group of imps came from behind, and who knows, the group of imps did not allow me to leave, and insisted on pushing me down the abyss. I couldn't beat them, and I was about to be pushed down by them, when suddenly a white-haired old man dragged me back, and then I woke up. ”

"You are dreaming and dreaming, but in fact, your father rescued you with a decoction. ”

"Daddy...... Mother......" Wang Heng'er cried.

"Heng'er, you must not do this, so as not to hurt your vitality, we should save you. Wang Houshi said.

"Dad, mother, I will never be sick again. ”

"If that's the case, that's good, that's good. ”
