Chapter 17: Desperate Survival
I don't know how long it took, Xu Dushan finally woke up from a coma.
He opened his eyes, habitually moved, and immediately felt a fierce pain all over his body, especially in the lumbar spine and back, as long as he moved slightly, the piercing pain only rushed to his head, making him break out in a cold sweat.
He wanted to reach out and wipe the beads of sweat and scratch his itchy back, when he felt that his limbs were tied tightly by something, and he couldn't move at all. He tried to struggle a little harder, and immediately felt a piercing pain, and he had to give up.
He didn't know where he was, but he felt that he was lying on a bed that was neither soft nor hard, and the roof was a dome painted with clouds, flowers, coins, and sheep's horns.
Everything he could see and feel here was completely alien to him!
Could it be that I was robbed by bandits in the deep mountains and forests? Or was I kidnapped by Somali pirates? Or did I fall into the stone cave where a group of monsters lived as described in "Journey to the West"? Thinking like this, I couldn't help but turn my head slightly, and then there was a heart-piercing pain in my cervical spine.
Scrapped, scrapped, I'm really completely scrapped like that!
Xu Dushan thought desperately, thinking that he would never be able to stand up from now on, and that he would spend the rest of his life lying down like this, he couldn't help but feel sad, and his heart was sour, and a tear came out of the corner of his eye.
However, instead of living a miserable life like this, it is better to die with pain. He tried desperately to straighten up, to find a hard place, and to bump into it with all his might.
"Oops!" he cried out, feeling another sharp pain. Only then did he realize that everything he had just done was in vain, and then, he did not dare to move again.
Now, he finally understands that he has the courage to die, but he just doesn't have the right to die.
He didn't believe in fate before, but at this point, he finally does.
I don't know why, at this time, Xu Dushan suddenly remembered his dead mother.
His mother was hardworking and kind, very hard-working, and compassionate, and her neighbors praised her. At the same time, she is a devout Christian. As a child, his mother told him that Jesus was a holy and supreme One, one with God, a source of life, and that He could save His people from their sins.
Every morning and evening, his mother prayed uncontrollably. Her greatest wish was to ask the Lord Jesus to bless their only son with safety and well, so she repeated this passage every day.
"Lord, bless my child. Be with us and grow up healthy and wise, and give him into your hands as our great Lord, and bless him. In the name of our Lord Jesus, Amen!"
In addition to praying, his mother often took him to church and attended prayer meetings for the faithful. Xu Dushan is still particularly impressed by the solemn atmosphere of the church. At that time, the believers were full of piety, and the words in their mouths gave him an unusually sacred and solemn feeling.
Out of curiosity and the yearning for new things, the young Xu Dushan began to recite poems under the leadership of his mother. What he remembers most is these paragraphs.
"My Lord, we need you, and we can't live without you for a moment, but only by snuggling up to you can we have satisfaction and rest in our hearts. Thank you, my Lord, for in these dark times you are the only light, and seek your true light to cast out the darkness in our hearts, to make us holy, to be your precious vessels. We know very well that all this is not possible in man, but what is impossible in you? Pray in the name of the Lord. Amen!"
"Heavenly Father, I praise you, you are a righteous God, you judge the world according to righteousness, you judge all nations according to righteousness, what you sow, what you let people reap, you sow according to the Holy Spirit, you make him reap eternal life, and what you sow according to ****, you make him reap corruption. Heavenly Father, I thank you that you are also a God who avenges me. ”
"Come back to the Lord. Don't think you'll be able to keep dodging. His wrath may come upon you suddenly, and you will die under punishment. ”
"Don't think you'll get away with sinning, the Lord can't wait to punish you. ”
Xu Dushan knows that he has done something terrible, and that everything is irreparable, and the result may be what the Bible says: "Do not think that you will get away with your sin, and that the Lord will be eager to punish you." ”
Now he has to wait for the Lord's punishment.
Thinking that I have fallen into a desperate situation, tomorrow is still unknown, and the future is blank. His mood plummeted, and he was extremely pessimistic.
At this moment, a sound of rapid footsteps came from far and near, accompanied by a sound of knowing what was suo, and the white face of a young girl flashed into his eyes.
"It's great that you've finally woken up. Tashi Delek!"
The girl clapped her hands with a charming smile on her face and jumped for joy. Then, she leaned down, leaned close to his ear, exhaled like an orchid, and said sweetly, "We are all worried about you, you are too badly injured." Now it's good!"
Then the girl ran out like a gust of wind.
From the moment she turned around, Xu Dushan saw that she was wearing a colorful Tibetan costume, tall and energetic, bringing a spring-like atmosphere to this dreary room.
After a while, the girl and a mother-in-law walked in.
"Grandma, he's awake. Look, his eyes are open!" the girl said excitedly. She sat on the edge of the bed with the mother-in-law, carefully studying the visitor who had just woken up.
Grandma gently pinched Xu Dushan's shoulders, lumbar spine, cervical spine and crotch with her hands.
"Does it hurt?" asked Grandma with a kind smile. Her face was covered with dark, deep, rough wrinkles like tree roots.
"Thank you, Auntie. It still hurts," Xu Dushan said, "maybe the bones are broken." Otherwise, why does it hurt so much?"
Seeing that his face was dripping with sweat, the girl took out a small towel from her pocket and gently wiped it for him, and her grape-black eyes showed great love.
Xu Dushan looked at the girl and asked blankly: "Beauty, hello, your surname, where am I?"
"I don't have a surname, my name is Tsering Bian Zhen," the girl said a little unhappily, "you don't call me a beauty, just call me Dolma or my name." ”
"Oh, Tsering Bianzhen, this name is so good!" Xu Dushan chuckled in his heart, and for the first time he heard the saying that he only had a name and no surname. He immediately smiled and continued, "This is the first time I've heard such a good name." What a name you have!"
"Of course! This is the name my Abba and Auntie gave me, and of course it sounds good. Tsering Bian Zhen showed her white and crystal teeth and said proudly: "My Abba and Auntie are the people I love the most in this world, and I worship the god in our hearts, Kawagebo, and I also love my Abba and Aunt. ”
Xu Dushan was confused when he heard it, but he was embarrassed to ask more. He felt a little tightness in his chest, adjusted his breathing, and then asked, "Tsering Bianzhen, where am I now?"
"You're in Shangri-La. This is our Shangri-La savannah, and you now live in our yurt. Tsering Bian Zhen giggled a few times, with a charming smile, "It's safe here, we will use my family's ancestral Tibetan medicine recipe to heal your injuries." ”
"Ah, how can I be in the prairie, in the yurt?" Xu Dushan was taken aback, almost not believing his ears. "Who brought me here?"
"Yes...... Oh, I almost said I missed my mouth," Tsering Bian Zhen stared at her, his face crimson with excitement. "I'm not going to tell you! ”
At this time, Grandma said something to Tsering Bianzhen in Tibetan, Tsering Bianzhen nodded and said to Xu Dushan: "Don't ask, Grandma and I are going to turn your body over, and we will change the medicine with you later." ”
After Tsering Bian Zhen finished speaking, he turned sideways and learned what Suo Suo was busy with on the table next to him. After a while, she brought a steaming bowl and placed it on the small square table next to Xu Dushan's bed.
"This is our family's butter tea, and when it gets cooler, you can drink it. Tsering Bian Zhen flashed her big beautiful eyes. "By the way, I forgot to tell you that my grandmother's name is Gesang Yangzong, and my abba's name is Tashi Tsering. My Abba is a very enthusiastic doctor here. ”
With a thick smile on the corner of Tsering Bian Zhen's mouth, he watched him finish drinking the butter tea, and then said as if ordering: "Wait a minute, we will change the medicine for you, don't be afraid of pain." Actually, it doesn't hurt. ”
After Tsering Bian Zhen and Grandma turned Xu Dushan's body over, a handsome middle-aged man about 1.8 meters tall came in. He wasn't fat or thin, and he had a plate in his hand with a lot of bottles and jars of stuff.
Tsering Bian Zhen proudly said to Xu Dushan: "This is my Abba Tashi Tsering. He's a man. ”
Then, the three of them busied themselves on the old square table across from the bed. They were muttering something in Tibetan, and laughing happily from time to time.
Tsering Bian Zhen turned his head from time to time when he was laughing, and glanced at Xu Dushan a few times, his expression was very charming and cute. She seemed to say to Xu Dushan: "Look, you look so funny, we all think it's funny." ”
After applying the medicine, Tsering Bianzhen's Abba and Aunt went out to do other things. Next, Tsering Bian Zhen told Xu Dushan what had happened.
Xu Dushan finally knew why he came here.
