Hongmei stayed in the hospital for two days and had a damaged spleen, but we decided to take her to a nursing home. Xu Jingkun is a gentleman, but others may not. I will always remember Guagua's blood-red eyes. Almost came out of the same dye vat as Bai Chen's. It was a look of revenge. Hatred is a terrible thing that can go on for decades, centuries. And feelings are indeed scattered.

The plank road to Tianma Mountain is still thick with fog. It's like a warehouse for the cloud. The owner probably forgot to pick up the goods, the fog piled up day after day, and the musty smell of the fog could be smelled. Sometimes you think it's a person in front of you, but it's actually a tree. You think it's not a tree, but it's still a tree.

Tingxiong drove the car very seriously, looking straight ahead. Hongmei and I sat in the back. Hongmei said that her feet were heavy, and after a while, she said that her hands were heavy. After a while, he said that his head was heavy, like a pile of dead meat.

I joke that gravity has strengthened lately. I also feel like my whole body is heavy.

Hongmei has always been excited, but today she is depressed like a bear. His eyes looked out the window at the shadows of the trees. I was afraid that she would suddenly recite poetry and recite very mournful verses. Like those poets who are degraded.

"I don't want to drag everyone down," she said, moving her body back, "but I didn't expect it to be more and more troublesome for everyone." ”

"We thought you were home. I said.

"No, I'm going to find that guagua-" she almost gasped.

I didn't want her to recall the pain, so I cut off her words: "It's okay Hongmei, we didn't think you were troublesome, we were good classmates, weren't we." Students should help each other. ”

She dug her fingers into the hole in her jeans. The head pressure is low. I seemed to see Tao Yao's figure from her. Tao Yao used to be optimistic and cheerful.

I also arranged Hongmei in the staff dormitory, just next to Taoyao. Doctors said the anesthetic had paralyzed her cranial nerves and that it would take at least a month or two to recover. She sat on the edge of the bed, like a stone. I closed the door and walked to the playground with Tingxiong.

"Why don't you go back tomorrow, I see you're always preoccupied. I said.

"Zijun has been under a lot of pressure these days, and I want to help her but I don't know where to start. He said.

"Although Zhao Pu is back, after all, he can't compare to you, and it's better than anyone else to have you by her side. ”

"It's not safe in school now, and a few days ago there was a first-grader who was broken in his bones at school, and when we went to ask him, he insisted that he had fallen. I guess I was threatened. Tingxiong was smiling bitterly.

"Are first-graders also the target of inter-school attacks?"

"That student is a disciple of the Hundred Grass Hall in the capital. You know, our school is not as good as Guanshan College, and there are not many students who understand medicine. He's an important part of our logistics. ”

"Tingxiong, there's a question I don't understand. ”

"What a problem. ”

"That's what these four colleges are fighting against each other. Maybe I'm a person who doesn't pay much attention to current events. I feel like we're just students, we're studying here, we're looking for jobs after we graduate. There is some competition, but not to the point of killing each other. In the past month or two, it seems that a lot of people have died. ”

"In fact, this kind of confrontation has also existed in previous sessions, but this year, because of Jie Zidan, the situation is much more serious than before. I don't know the specific reasons, but I have some of my own opinions, and I think it has a lot to do with our country's national policy. A hundred years ago, we fought with the Hammer Federation for energy, and it took ten years to fight. Both sides of the war were the strength of the whole country, and for us, the initial results of the war were not ideal, and it can be said that we have lost one after another. At that time, we built our country with literature and science, and we did not attach importance to martial arts, although we had a strong reserve guarantee, but we were defeated by the Hammer Federation. Literature and science are good at governing the country, but they are not good at war. If it weren't for the dissolution of the Hammer Federation due to civil strife. We may all be Hammer's slaves now. After the end of the war, our country formulated a national policy, called "God of War Operation", and half of the time was allocated to teach martial arts, regardless of the size of the school. Since then, our country has been built by force. This is really good when resisting foreign enemies. But 60 years have passed since peace. Students who spend their time practicing martial arts must have neglected other skills. After graduation, these students are no longer foreign mercenaries, except for the army and some personal bodyguards. It's hard to find a job. This is far from enough to provide a huge army of graduates. A lot of people have to take a flashy college diploma with a meager salary. For these students, dignity and confusion are difficult questions that they will never be able to solve. If they can't enter the army, their income after graduation is even less than that of migrant workers. ”

"No wonder martial arts and technology are so fierce now," I sighed.

Tingxiong paused, using his fingers to pull his hair down to the back of his head. His eyes were looking straight ahead, as if to see through the thick fog and see the future, but the fog was getting thicker and thicker.

"The most serious contradiction is in our four universities. This is the best school in the country is four. They can't let go of their dignity. Every year, there are many people who commit suicide after graduating from college and not being recruited by the army. There are a limited number of places to be recruited by the military. In order to compete for jobs, there was a fierce confrontation between the four colleges. For them, if they can get rid of an opponent, they will have one more chance. ”

"Yes, although martial arts are good, you can't use them to drive, you can't be a doctor, you can't do anything. Except for fights. I smiled bitterly, in fact, I have been thinking about the question of martial arts for a long time. I once asked my master, the Banshan Zen Master. I asked him if we worked so hard to learn martial arts, and in the end we might not be able to use it for the rest of our lives. Why should I go and learn something that is useless to me. My master did not answer me, but told me to climb the mountain and look down from above. When I came back, he asked me what I saw, and I told him curiously, I thought that the river in our village flowed from our mountain, but I didn't expect it to flow from the opposite mountain. The master smiled and told me. Not all people can think from your perspective and height.

"In fact, the country has also noticed this in recent years, such as the alchemy and medicine of Guanshan College, the machinery and physics of Yuelu College, as well as the literature, music and painting of our school, Tianshu College has been focusing on the training of management talents in recent years. Everyone is trying to get out of the whirlpool of martial arts. I'm afraid of being sucked in. The parliament is also divided into two factions for science and martial arts, one faction believes that as long as the soldiers carry out martial arts training, it is enough. On the other hand, one faction believes that if martial arts are abolished, the country will inevitably be attacked by foreign countries. The people of the former faction are mainly the military, and if martial arts are trained by the army, then they will get more power and funds. On the other hand, it is mainly civilian. The turmoil in this martial arts competition is so big, I think, there must be the support of the military behind the martial arts fight, otherwise it would not be so big. The more serious the matter, the more they can sway the council. In the end, it is only us students who will suffer. And Zijun is even more dangerous if she is the student council president, she will become a scapegoat. ”

We had reached the end of the road and turned back.

Tingxiong continued: "Now the school implements a system of students and teachers in charge, and Zijun is the first person responsible for everything that happens in the student union. She's been under a lot of pressure these months. ”

"You can see that this is when she needs you the most. I said.

"Alas-" Tingxiong let out a long sigh, he was not usually a person who sighed, "Zijun may have someone else in his heart" He looked at me.

"Why do you say that, Zijun is inseparable from you all day long," I said.

Tingxiong was silent for a long time, looking at the clouds in the sky: "Maybe I'm thinking too much, hehe." ”

I don't know how to comfort Tingxiong, he's always been very assertive. But I also know that in the face of love, everyone can become clumsy and suspicious. Tingxiong didn't want to speak, and I didn't know what to say, so the two of them walked to the dormitory in silence.
