Chapter 40: Self-Doubt

Wu Neng could hear the dispute on the other side of the door clearly.

After a moment's hesitation, he knocked on the door, and the voice on the other side of the door fell silent.

"Who?" Murda asked.

"It's me, Wu Neng. Aunt Moda, please open the door, I'm here to deliver medicine to Uncle Aguer. ”

"It's Wu Neng Immortal."

The door soon opened, and Wu Neng's eyes were met by Mo Da's haggard face.

Moda welcomed Wu Neng into the house, and although the angry Mrs. Kajia had an ugly face, she still bowed to Wu Neng as calmly as possible, and said, "It turned out to be Wu Neng Immortal, and my family Agu Erlao bothered you." ”

"It's just a gesture, not to mention that Uncle Aguer has helped us so much before, and this is what we should do." After a few humble words, Wu Neng asked, "The medicine bag will be handed over to you, Aunt Moda, you only need to apply it to the wound when you change the wound cloth next time." Uncle, is he resting now? If it's convenient, I wonder if I can go in and take a look at him? ”

"Of course, of course." Moda hurriedly said that the injury on her husband's arm had made her mess all day, and now that Wu Neng was here, it was as if she had arrived as a savior. Moda was looking forward to it in her heart, maybe let her seriously injured husband have more contact with the aura of the immortals, and it would be difficult to say that he would be able to turn the corner in the next few days.

Wu Neng walked into Aguer's room and saw Aguer lying on his back on the wooden bed, his eyes tightened and his face pale. Agul's right arm was wrapped in a thick scarf, but even so, there were still traces of blood oozing from the outermost strip of cloth.

Kanda and Diya, whose eyes were red, saw Wu Neng coming in, and hurriedly walked in and greeted Wu Neng, and the sadness and helplessness in the eyes of the two little sparrows pierced Wu Neng's heart like sharp needles.

After Wu Neng left the medicine bag, he had a brief conversation with Moda and the two children, and then hurriedly said goodbye and left, he had to go to deliver medicine to other injured people.

Before leaving, Wu Neng comforted the helpless Kanda and Diya again, and with the assurance of the fairy brother, the two children who had been crying for a long time finally looked better.

But Wu Neng's mood was very heavy, although he didn't understand medical science, he could also see how serious Aguer's injury was. As Shi Cheng said, although it is not necessary to amputate the leg, it seems inevitable that there will be sequelae.

Wu Neng, who was in a mess in his heart, left Aguer's house and returned to the medical hall.

This night was the busiest night since Shi Cheng and the three of them drifted to the Northern Rainforest Continent, and everyone was busy until late at night, barely finishing to take care of all the sick and injured.

After delivering all the medicine packets, the few villagers who came to help were so tired that they went back to their respective homes to sleep.

Wu Neng limped back to the medical hall and found a suitable place to sit down next to Shi Cheng, who was personally washing the wound cloth with boiling water. He sighed softly as he rubbed his sore ankle with his hand, he had walked a long way today.

Iron Mask sat quietly across from the two, his eyes fixed on the medicinal soup in the crockpot in front of him.

"Old Wu, what news did you hear in Kawa City today?" Shi Cheng asked coldly.

Wu Neng was stunned for a moment, then reacted, and told Shi Cheng and Tie Mian what he had seen and heard in Kawa City today.

"That's it, Lao Shi, this is the receipt written by the Kawa City Branch of the Fruit Wood Chamber of Commerce, and we can take their ride with this slip when the time comes.

Shi Cheng nodded and said, "I've worked hard for you today, Lao Wu, you can go back and rest first in a while, and I and Tie Mian will stare here for a while." “

"It's okay for me, I can stay and help." Wu Neng hurriedly said.

"You are the least experienced among the three of us, look at how tired you are, if I ask you to help bandage the wound, will you suddenly slip your hand and open the wound of the injured person?" Shi Cheng asked rhetorically.

Seeing that Wu Neng still wanted to say something, Shi Cheng continued: "There is nothing else to do here for the time being, so Old Wu, you have to hurry up and take a break, I hope you can show your spirit when you give me a hand." ”

Under Shi Cheng's persuasion, Wu Neng finally didn't insist anymore, and he was indeed too tired.

"Then I'll go back and rest first, and I'll come back to help you after a while."

After Wu Neng left, Shi Cheng put away all the cleaned cloth strips, and after doing all this, he found a large stone nearby to sit on it, and while resting, he looked at the wounded and sick in the hospital hall with great attention.

Tie Mian walked up to Shi Cheng and said lightly, "You seem to have a lot on your mind today. ”

"Isn't this nonsense?" Shi Cheng replied.

"You know very well what I mean by my heart, you don't usually use this tone to talk to me and Wu Neng."

Shi Cheng didn't speak, and after a while, he grabbed his hair and said softly, "I'm sorry." ”

"What are you bothering about?" Iron Mask's question remains brief.

"I told you before, Wu Neng and I have encountered something in the Red Wood City of the Western Desert Country." Shi Cheng raised his head and looked at the starry sky above.

Iron Mask nodded.

"At that time, I had a heart as evil as hatred." Speaking of this, Shi Cheng smiled self-deprecatingly, "When I knew that Bai Jilong, the head of the Bai family, had killed four innocent family members, I forced him to death in front of his family. ”

Iron Mask didn't speak.

"Killing people should have paid for their lives, not to mention the blood of so many innocent people on my hands, so I didn't hesitate at that time. Lao Wu thought I was cold-blooded, but I insisted on taking it for granted. ”

"Morally, you're right." Iron Mask said.

"But what is happening in front of us today is many times more tragic than the bloody case in Baifu that day, but I have no choice but to swallow my anger against those culprits." Shi Cheng looked at the sky in a daze, "Even in the future, if we have to leave here, we will have to ask for those Wei State Chamber of Commerce with a pleasant face." ”

Iron Mask was silent for a while, then said, "What is your biggest goal in this life?" ”

"Destroy the remnants of the Lu clan and prevent the return of Lu Zun." Shi Cheng replied without thinking.

"Just go towards your goal, care about other things, you're going to be tired." Iron Mask said calmly.

"For that purpose, throw away everything you don't need." Shi Cheng suddenly laughed.

"You're actually such a person, just like me, you can do it." Iron Mask sneered.

Shi Cheng's face was expressionless, and after a while, he squeezed out a sentence from his dry voice: "Perhaps...... You're right. I Shi Cheng, this is not sincere. ”

……

The next morning, Wu Neng, who had always been snooze, got up from bed early.

Although the fatigue on his body was not completely eliminated, Wu Neng couldn't take care of it anymore, he had to rush to the medical hall to see what help Shi Cheng needed.

"Oops...... The pile of sweet potatoes brought back from Kawa City yesterday is still in the Tibetan box, so I quickly took it today and distributed it to the villagers. Wu Neng slapped his head while muttering to himself.

There must be no time to practice martial arts during the day today, Wu Neng changed his clothes, took the Tibetan box and went out.

Before leaving, Wu Neng deliberately wrapped a large piece of sweet potato with the wide paper given to him by Mu Shoude, left a note on the paper, and put these things as a gift at the door of Aguer's house.

Meda and Mrs. Kaja were among the few literate villagers in the village, so Wu Neng was not worried that Meda would not be able to read his message.

On the way to the medical center, Wu Neng suddenly found that in the past few days, I don't know when it began, there were more and more people hanging black rattan in the village.

When he was studying art in Yanmen, Wu Neng once heard from his brothers and sisters who had returned from traveling in the mountains that the customs of many countries in Yulinzhou were quite similar to those of the Great Wei, Wu and some cold moon countries, for example: people who had a funeral at home would hang black yarn outside their homes and on their clothes to express their sorrows, and in many extremely poor villages, the villagers did not have black yarn to use, so they used darker rattan as a substitute.

The more Wu Neng thought about it, the more solemn his heart became, and he felt that he could even hear the cries coming from those houses, and he couldn't help but speed up his pace.

When Wu Neng arrived at the hospital, he happened to meet Shi Cheng and the villagers to change the wounded cloth, so he simply greeted and joined in.

Before the start of construction, Wu Neng took out all the sweet potatoes he was carrying and distributed them to the villagers in the hospital, many villagers were moved to tears, but the more grateful they were, the more uncomfortable Wu Neng's heart became.

"Old Wu, don't feel uncomfortable, drink some water, it's from outside the village, let's continue to work after drinking the water." Shi Cheng next to him handed over a wooden bowl with water.

Wu Neng nodded, drank all the water in the wooden bowl, and then wiped the water from the corner of his mouth and the tears on his face.
