Chapter 8: A Promise

Just when Liu Pingsan felt that he was about to be overwhelmed by the crowd, he suddenly heard a girl's crisp voice, calling her name.

"Third Brother Ping, Third Brother Ping, what's wrong with you, Third Brother Ping?"

Suddenly, Liu Pingsan found that everything in front of him had turned into pieces of broken glass, and the ground under his feet fell into a bottomless black hole with him.

Liu Pingsan could feel that his mouth was open, but he couldn't make any sound, there was an absolute silence in his ears, and he could even clearly hear his violent breathing and heartbeat.

Everything he experienced at this time reminded him of the drowning experience when he was a child, and it was also like this feeling now, a sense of suffocation that made people feel hopeless.

Gradually, Liu Pingsan's consciousness became blurred again.

I don't know how long it took, the darkness finally stopped being dark, Liu Pingsan opened his eyes, and his vision gradually changed from blur to clear.

As far as the eye could see, it was a bamboo roof, and Liu Pingsan tried to move his arms, but found that he couldn't exert a little strength.

At this moment, the voice he had just heard sounded in Liu Pingsan's ears again: "Brother Pingsan, you are really awake, great!"

Liu Pingsan's gaze turned to the voice, and he found a little girl with a red headband wrapped around her hair, who looked to be about ten years old, holding her hand at this time, with a smile on her face.

"How do you know my name?" Liu Pingsan asked subconsciously.

"It was the Taoist priest who sent you and a beautiful sister who said it. ”

"Then they," Liu Pingsan wanted to get up excitedly when he heard the girl say this, but the wound was touched, and he grinned in pain, "What about them?"

"Third Brother Ping, grandpa has told me, let me remind you not to move when you wake up. The little girl said with a slight reproach in her tone.

"Uh, I'm sorry. ”

"Hee-hee, it's okay. By the way, did you ask the sister and the Taoist grandfather who sent you? They have already left, and they didn't say anything when they left, so let us take good care of you. ”

When Liu Pingsan heard this, his expression darkened, maybe he was really a broom star as he said in his dream, so everyone would leave me.

The sensible little girl saw the change in Liu Pingsan's expression, and immediately comforted: "It's okay, Brother Pingsan, they must have something to do, so they will leave you temporarily, don't be sad." Just like my grandfather, I often don't come back for ten days and half a month because I have to pick some herbs, and I'm used to it. ”

Liu Pingsan smiled reluctantly and agreed, "Hmm." ”

"My Xuanxuanyou, how can grandpa often not come back for ten days and half a month!"

At this moment, a slightly old voice came from the door.

Liu Pingsan couldn't move, so he could only wait for the old man to walk to his bed before he saw the person who spoke.

He looks like a diminutive old man with a straw hat on his head, a goatee, and his hands behind his back, looking like an ordinary villager working in the mountains.

"Boy, you're recovering well. The old man looked at Liu Pingsan and said.

Liu Pingsan smiled and said gratefully to the old man in front of him: "Thank you for saving me." ”

"Thank you for not needing, if you really want to repay the favor, how about taking out the treasure in your sea and giving it to the old man?" the old man said jokingly.

"Grandpa, you ......"

"Silly girl, don't talk. ”

"This ......" Liu Pingsan thought for a while and said, "If you want it, just take it." ”

"If I take that thing, you're going to die. ”

The old man looked at Liu Pingsan, who was hesitant, and laughed: "What's the matter?

Liu Pingsan said with a serious face: "It's not reluctant, since you saved this life of mine, there is no problem for you to take it away." It's just that I think that since I am alive, I should do something more meaningful than die. ”

"Okay, stinky boy, the old man is just joking with you, you know that thing in the sea, maybe many people will be tempted, but the old man happens to be one of those people who will not be tempted, which is why the old man Yuanzhen will send you to me, you can rest assured."

However, you really want to thank you or wait for the injury to heal, come and thank my good granddaughter, the old man just fed you a few pills, but in the past half a month, she has been taking care of you with a handful of and urine, and even the old man does not have this treatment. Speaking of this, the old man couldn't help but snort coldly.

When the little girl heard her grandfather say this, she blushed and said, "Grandpa, how can you say such an exaggeration." ”

"Didn't you give this stinky boy and urine every day, change clothes and take a bath?"

"Grandpa, don't talk about it... Besides, I'll just talk about it today, yes, I'll ignore you all day today. ”

After thinking about it, the girl added, "I'll ignore you tomorrow." ”

"Haha, you're going to be sad for a grandfather like this, okay, okay, I'm not going to tease you. ”

Liu Pingsan listened to the conversation between the grandfather and grandson on the side, looking embarrassed, and really didn't know how to interject.

In the end, it was Lin Xuan who was kind enough to relieve Liu Pingsan: "Third Brother Ping, you just woke up, you must be hungry, I'll go and bring you the freshly boiled porridge." ”

"Uh, okay. ”

When Lin Xuan brought the porridge over and fed Liu Pingsan with a spoon, Liu Pingsan still felt a little awkward in his heart, but thinking that he had been taken care of like this for so many days, Liu Pingsan's heart gradually relieved, and he began to comfort himself in his heart, I am a doctor, I am a patient.

But whether Liu Pingsan has other things in mind or not, maybe only he knows.

In the evening, Lin Xuan fetched a basin of water for Liu Pingsan, ready to wipe Liu Pingsan's body, Liu Pingsan, who was already conscious, refused to let him live or die, but the girl said a word, and Liu Pingsan choked and didn't know what to do.

"Grandpa said, the doctor is unscrupulous, you are a patient!"

So, Liu Pingsan had no choice but to lie down and be at the mercy of Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan first skillfully took off Liu Pingsan's clothes one by one, soaked the handkerchief in the water, wrung it out, and then began to help Liu Pingsan wipe his body, and never shied away from some private parts.

Liu Pingsan felt the handkerchief across every piece of his skin, and Lin Xuan's fingers would touch him from time to time, which made Liu Pingsan feel embarrassed in his heart, and his face turned red.

And Lin Xuan's little sister was actually a little blushing at this time, because although she had taken care of Liu Pingsan like this before, but at that time, the other party was lying on the bed unconsciously, how could she be as awake as today, Lin Xuan could even feel Liu Pingsan's body trembling slightly.

In order to resolve the embarrassment, Liu Pingsan had no choice but to say nothing: "You usually take care of other patients like this?"

"No, you are the first patient I took care of, although my grandfather taught me a lot of medical knowledge since I was a child, but he almost does not accept patients, every time he comes to us, there are only those who ask for pills, and there is no one who needs treatment like Brother Pingsan. ”

"Uh......" Hearing this, Liu Pingsan felt even more embarrassed, so he had to keep his mouth shut and stop talking.

When Lin Xuan finished wiping Liu Pingsan and needed to turn over, Liu Pingsan originally thought that Lin Xuan would call her grandfather for help.

After all, although she is thin, she is eighty pounds, how can a ten-year-old girl hold herself.

However, what he didn't expect was that this girl would hug him lightly.

Lin Xuan looked at Liu Pingsan with a look of surprise on his face, and thought that he had hurt him, and said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, Brother Pingsan, I shouldn't have made such a big effort." ”

"No, no, no, I didn't expect your strength to be so great. ”

"Huh, isn't that everyone?"

"No, in our town, a ten-year-old girl like you can lift thirty or forty pounds of things, which is already very remarkable. ”

"I don't know, I haven't been outside yet, my grandfather always told me that I was too young, and he said that the rivers and lakes were sinister and the world of cultivation was cruel, so he didn't let me go out. ”

"Actually, I'm just like you, I've been growing up in Taoping Town since I was a child, and I don't know what the outside world is like, huh...... Is this good, when we grow up, I will protect you and take you to the outside world to see. ”

"Okay, good, third brother Ping. ”

“......”

In the quiet night, the stars are dotted outside the bamboo building, the crickets in early summer sing softly among the grass, and inside the bamboo building, a teenager makes a small promise to the girl next to him.

Perhaps the two people who are talking now don't realize that it was this promise when they were young that became a lifelong bond between them.
