Chapter 1 Family Change
The path of cultivating the truth is the first major thing in the world, and it is also the first difficult thing in the world. With its greatness and difficulty, the ancients said that it was something that the world wanted. It is also a thing, and those who do not know the creation, understand the yin and yang, have the long-term and hard-won ambition, and step by step, cannot do it.
Later generations of scholars, regardless of what this matter is, do not learn the Tao, that is, they want to become enlightened, and if they have not learned people, they want to become immortals. It is no wonder that the cultivators are like cow hair, and the enlightened ones are like the horns of the linjiao.
Good is like water. Water is good for all things without fighting, and it is evil for everyone, so it is more than the Tao......
At dusk, on a path full of loess, a little boy about twelve years old carried a bundle of dry firewood on his back and walked down the mountain with footprints.
Not only that, but there was a big yellow dog behind the boy, perhaps because he was tired of playing, and at this time he did not jump around like other dogs, but followed his master honestly. And the tongue has been stuck out of the dog's mouth, probably to dissipate heat in the body......
The mountain was very quiet, and the occasional bird call quickly fell silent, and although the boy was a little timid in his heart, he couldn't help but feel much more relieved at the thought of a big yellow dog beside him.
Raising his head and looking down at the last stretch of the winding road, the boy put down the dry wood on his back, and sat down on a nearby rock and began to rest. And the dog that followed him was also happy, only to see it lying on the ground "ha, ha, ha......" panting.
Wiping the fine sweat on his forehead with the black "oily" and patched sleeves, the boy suddenly showed a smile, and he didn't know if he thought of something happy. Then the boy untied a bamboo tube from the waistband of his trousers, and was about to open the closed lid, when the man frowned slightly and withdrew it, because he had felt that there was no water in the bamboo tube, and he had no choice but to swallow it.
Perhaps because there was no one to talk to, the boy who was sitting and resting imagined in his head that when he got home, his mother would probably have prepared a fragrant meal and waited for him. Thinking about it, he couldn't help but be in a trance, and it wasn't until he felt something strange about his bare toes that he came back to his senses.
When he looked down, he saw that the big yellow dog was sticking out his tongue to add feet to him, and at this time, he also found that there was a small opening on one of his toes. Red blood flowed out of the mouth, and then it was cleaned by the big yellow dog.
Shaking his head and smiling bitterly, the boy thought to himself that when he returned, he must ask his mother to fill the small hole in the front of the shoe, otherwise this situation would definitely happen again.
After reaching out and patting the dog's head to indicate that he was fine, the boy bent down and picked up the dry wood and continued to take a step, walking down the hill with one footprint. And this mountain road is also walked out in this way, of course, he is not alone......
The sun was setting, the night was coming slowly, and the boy returned to the entrance of the village at this time, turning his head to look at the mountain behind him, which had become gray, the boy breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time there was a chill on his back. Because children of their age often hear the village elders say that "something unclean will appear in the mountains at night", and if they do encounter those things, they will get a serious illness at least and lose their lives at worst......
Shaking his head, the boy shook the demons and monsters in his head, and then shook the dry wood on his back and walked home. The big yellow dog, who had been following him, couldn't hold back the joy of going home, and after barking a few times "Wang, Wang, Wang......", he took the lead and ran to his home at the end of the village.
Seeing this, the boy also trotted closely after it. Along the way, there was a faint glow of fire from the huts on both sides of his body, mixed with the smell of food that made him swallow his mouth. Maybe it was dinner time, and he didn't see any of his fellow villagers, not even his former friends. The village was surprisingly quiet, which made him instinctively feel uneasy, and with this feeling, the speed on his feet couldn't help but speed up a little again.
Running along the potholed road to the end of the village, the boy suddenly noticed that the lights in front of him were unusually bright, and after turning a corner, he was slightly stunned, and then a look of panic immediately appeared on his face.
"Not good. With a secret sigh, the boy ignored the gazes of his friends and adults, and rushed home through the crowd. The reason why this is so is because he found that this group of people was standing in front of his house, and this situation can only indicate that something big must have happened in the family, and of course it will definitely not be a good thing, which can be seen from the expression on the face of the grandfather and uncle outside the house......
However, when the boy first stepped into the hut, his whole body seemed to be electrocuted, and his body shook, and he froze in place, his eyes fixed on the side of the hut, and he saw that there was a bed there, and on the bed lay a pale middle-aged man. Not only that, but at this time, the man's eyes and mouth strangely appeared an extremely thick black and purple color......
"Doctor Miao, how is Wulang's condition?" On the side of the bed, a woman with black hair mixed with Xu Baisi couldn't help but ask.
Frowning slightly, Dr. Miao sighed, and said in a deep tone: "The depth of your Lang's poisoning is unheard of and unseen, although I use acupuncture to temporarily suppress the poison, but at most it will delay his life for two days." ”
Hearing this, the woman couldn't suppress the grief and indignation in her heart, and tears gushed out. Then she knelt on the ground with the little daughter next to her, and begged bitterly: "Doctor Miao, please save Wulang." The children are still young, if there is no him, how can you make our family live? ”
"It's ....... Seeing her like this, Dr. Miao felt very uncomfortable, and in the end, he had to grit his teeth in desperation, and said a little unbearably: "It's not that there is no way, but the difficulties in this are not something that mortals can do at all!"
Hearing that there was a way, the woman changed her face and asked urgently: "Is there any way, the doctor might as well say it, as long as we can do it, our whole family will not give up." ”
Looking at the mother and daughter kneeling on the ground, after turning around and glancing at the boy at the door, Dr. Miao couldn't help but shake his head, and then helped up the mother and daughter kneeling on the ground and said, "You guys get up first." ”
After thinking for a moment, Dr. Miao continued: "In my opinion, you Lang should have been injured by a snake, but it is not an ordinary snake, as for what kind of snake I don't know, and if you want to cure him, you must find a toxin that can fight against it, a little lower is not good, a higher is counterproductive, you can only find the same concentration, and there must be resistance between the two, otherwise even if you find the same amount of toxin, it will be in vain, but how difficult it is to find this toxin within two days!"
After listening to Dr. Miao's request, the woman's face turned extremely pale. Not to mention whether this toxin can be found, even if it is found, the owner of the toxin must be some evil poison! And in the current situation of their family, who has the ability to capture it? It is impossible for relatives and friends, and it is even more impossible for her, in case she dies in the capture, what will the two children do?
Thinking of all this, the woman turned her head to look at Lang Jun, who was lying on the bed with a black face, and said with an extremely bitter expression: "God, our family has never done anything bad, why do you want to bring such a great calamity to us. ”
"Woo....... So saying, the woman squatted on the ground, grabbed her hair with both hands, and came out in pain. The youngest daughter on the side shook her mother's arm sensibly and muttered, "Mother, don't cry, don't cry......." ”
Seeing the sad and sad appearance of this family, Dr. Miao took a deep breath and packed up his medical props, and walked towards the door with a heavy face. After all, it's useless for him to stay here, so why add to the sorrow of others.
Outside the door, when the villagers saw Dr. Miao like this, they all walked towards their homes weakly, and some playmates who wanted to comfort the boy were also forced to leave by their parents.
After everyone left, the boy standing at the door raised his hand and wiped his tears, then knelt on the ground, "bang, bang, bang......" kowtowed three times, and after doing all this, he looked deeply at his mother, father, and sister, who was three years younger than himself, turned around, and resolutely walked towards the door.
And the woman in grief didn't see all this at all, otherwise she would never have let her son go......
In a remote corner in the north of the village, Dr. Miao, who had just returned from a medical trip, was about to wash and sleep, but there was a quick knock on the door.
"Who?" Dr. Miao instinctively shouted, then walked to the door and opened the door, when he saw the person, he couldn't help but be stunned, and said, "Ah, Ah Niu, why are you here?"
"Dr. Miao. Looking at the wrinkled old face in front of him, but respected by everyone in the village, Ah Niu, that is, the boy who caught up, said with great sincerity and firmness: "Please tell me where the poison is, no matter what, I must retrieve the poison to treat my father." ”
"You?" Hearing this, Dr. Miao was dumbfounded, if it was someone else, he would definitely not hesitate to sarcastically mock the other party, not to mention being a child. But Ah Niu in front of him was different, because he was about to lose his relatives, so no matter what, he would not hit the other party's fragile heart at this time, so he had to kindly enlighten: "Child, I know you are very filial, but this matter is not something you can complete at all, listen to Grandpa Miao's words, go and accompany your father who has not had much time." ”
In this regard, Ah Niu was indifferent, his legs bent, and he knelt on the ground and said in a firm tone: "Please tell me the location of the poison, and I must treat my father." ”
Seeing him like this, Dr. Miao was angry, and shouted: "I said why are you so stubborn, not to mention that you are still young, even if we go with the whole village, it is impossible, because the place where it is located is too terrifying." ”
"Horror?" Ah Niu's eyes lit up, and after thinking for a moment, he kowtowed, stood up and said gratefully: "Thank you Dr. Miao for your advice, but do you still have to describe that thing to me." ”
"Ugh. Doctor Miao was stunned, and then he knew that he had revealed his mouth, and then scolded with a smile: "You stupid boy, how can your brain turn so fast at this moment, but even if you know it, I still can't tell you what it is, because I don't want your family to be alone, child, listen to grandpa, go back!"
"No, I can't. Ah Niu refused the other party's kindness without thinking about it, and then still insisted: "Please tell me, Grandpa Miao, if you don't tell me, I'll go and grab a poison, so that even if I can't save my father, at least I have a clear conscience." ”
"If I told you, you would have a clear conscience, but how can I face your family. Thinking like this in his heart, Dr. Miao continued to kindly dissuade him: "Child, it's not that grandpa doesn't want to help you in this matter, grandpa doesn't want you to die." ”
"So you don't want to tell me?" Ah Niu's face turned cold, and said: "Hmph, if you don't save you when you die, I can see you clearly" Doctor Miao." Speaking of the last few words, Ah Niu also deliberately accentuated his voice, as if the old man in front of him was like his father-killing enemy.
Listening to this cold voice, Dr. Miao couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, because from the other party's eyes, he saw "hate", and even had a killing intent, it was hard to imagine that a nine-year-old child would have this kind of thought, if the other party's father really died, I am afraid that his evening is very likely to be lost, although he is not afraid of a child, but the other party has grown up?
After staring at each other like this for a while, Dr. Miao sighed and said lightly: "Since you have this in mind, then I'll tell you, anyway, even if I don't tell you, you will go." ”
Seeing that he agreed, Ah Niu knelt on the ground and kowtowed again, and said: "Thank you Dr. Miao for your success, your great kindness and great virtue Ah Niu must be remembered in your heart, if Ah Niu can come back alive, he will definitely repay you with a good life." ”
In this regard, Dr. Miao waved his hand, and after telling the other party everything he knew and telling him to be careful, he closed the door. He was really angry with this ignorant child, and he estimated that he would lose sleep tonight.
At the same time, Ah Niu outside the door turned his head to look in the direction where he was, and after a little silence, he turned around and walked towards the "forbidden land". Perhaps the determination in his heart had been made, but at this moment he did not feel a trace of fear, but gave birth to an incomparably strong courage. And the darkness ahead is like a devil with its mouth wide open, waiting for delicious food to come to it step by step.
This time, Ah Niu didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and the only belief in his heart was to get back the toxin to save his father, because he didn't want to make his mother and sister sad, and he didn't want to become a fatherless child. Of course, he didn't know that this was gone, and his fate changed with it......
