229、The kindness
The rattan chair was casually lying in the yard, and two young men who were dissatisfied were half lying on the rattan chair. The sun shone on the two of them, and finally their dry skin became a little shiny and no longer looked like a corpse.
The two of them silently absorbed the sun's heat, and the young man with a slightly tender face said, "Brother, have we survived?"
"Yes." His brother responded.
After saying such nonsense, I got an obvious answer, but I asked the young man to relax, but I was still scared of surviving death.
A cripple came over with a bucket and saw that the two were still basking in the sun, and said, "You must be careful not to suffer the wind." The two young men did not reply to him, and he was not angry.
After a while, Zhang Da'er came back with a lotus leaf bag and said, "I bought a white-cut chicken. There is no oil and water. It's just right for you to replenish your body. Crip, where is Xiao Fang?" He turned around and looked around, but didn't see Xiao Fang.
The cripple said, "Xiao Fang went to the forest to touch the bird eggs and patrol the mountain."
Xiao Fang is the first young man to lead Xu Xiaole. He is not old and has been hanging around on the street with Zhang Da'er, and is very clever.
Xu Xiaole treats patients with tuberculosis here, circles the surrounding forests, and prevents mountaineers from coming in. After all, he is still afraid that people will enter by mistake, so he asked Xiao Fang to inspect twice every morning and afternoon, so he would tell someone to come in to inform him.
Zhang Da'er and his men were too embarrassed to see each other, and they were more afraid of being knocked in than Xu Xiaole, so Xiao Fang was more than twice a day. He just had to go and go to the bird's nest to find bird eggs when he had time.
Qionglong Mountain has deep Shaolin forests and is close to Taihu Lake. It is rich in water vapor, so it is lush with vegetation. Not only are there all kinds of mountain birds, but there are also many pheasants. Those hunters with good skills live in this mountain forest for several months without having to bring dry food. Xiao Fang was seduced by this natural food palace and walked farther and patrolling the mountain seemed to be accompanied by it.
The young man basking in the sun chuckled: "Xiao Fang can only call to pick up bird eggs. When I get better, I will ask you to see how real hunters enter the mountains."
Zhang Da'er glared at him: "Speak less, it hurts the qi!"
The young man quickly shut up and stopped talking, but his face still had a happy smile.
Yes, anyone who is shot and has dried up most of his blood, but in the end he can still bask in the soft and hot autumn sun and talk to his companions... he will feel very happy.
While Zhang Da'er was taking care of wild vegetables with the cripple, he also thought about cooking rice and steaming rice. When the food was almost done, Xu Xiaole should come.
As expected, everyone soon heard the sound of trees shaking in the forest. The sound came from the only one, so it was easy to distinguish it from the swaying branches and leaves of the mountain wind.
Zhang Da'er and others looked at a small path, which was only recently stepped out.
A figure like a monkey suddenly rushed out and landed on the path, laughing and joking towards everyone. It was Xu Xiaole. Every time he went up the mountain, he practiced martial arts, and he walked more and more remotely. He pursued the nearest route to reach his destination, and walked out a path that others dared not take.
This was the first time that the two young men on the rattan chair saw their savior in the sun, and they struggled to get up to greet them.
Xu Xiaole took two or three steps and said, "Don't move, don't move, lie down." He nodded to Zhang Da'er, saying hello, and asked the two again, "How do you feel today, brothers?"
The doctor asked, naturally there was no need to protect the qi anymore.
The young one said, "Today is much better than yesterday. We all came out by ourselves and didn't feel very tired."
The older one said, “Yes.”
Xu Xiaole smiled and said, "I don't feel tired when I speak."
The young brother smiled embarrassedly.
Xu Xiaole said: "Okay, this is a good thing after the lung qi is accumulated, what is the appetite?"
Zhang Da'er interrupted, "I know I'm hungry. I said I was so hungry last night that I couldn't sleep. Xiao Fang went to see the food he asked for in the dark."
Shangzhen Temple provides food according to the standards of Taoist priests, and they are all vegetables and no meat. This is not because most Taoist priests in Shangzhen Temple hold vegetarian food, so they only cook vegetarian dishes in the kitchen, and it is impossible to break their own rules for others. It is also because of this that Zhang Da'er also wants to buy meat at the foot of the mountain to nourish the two of them.
Although there is a lot of wild game in the mountains and forests, there are "roasted chicken", "rabbits", and "braised pork" everywhere... But for Zhang Da'er and Xiao Fang, who are from the market, it is too difficult to catch these ingredients, unless they are killed on the spot.
Not to mention the cripple, it is already very good that he can go up and down the mountain safely.
Xu Xiaole was even happier when he heard this and said, "It's very good, the spleen and stomach are the foundation of acquired nature. Being able to know hunger means that they have also begun to accumulate energy." As long as the patient can eat, he will have the capital to recover and is not far from recovery.
After hearing what Xu Xiaole said, Zhang Da'er and others laughed so brightly.
Xu Xiaole said, "Okay, I'm relieved to you two. As long as you continue to raise them for ten days and half a month, you won't need anyone to take care of them. I have to go and see Amulin's two sons."
Amulin's two sons were in the back row of houses.
The plains on the mountain are sparse, so you can only build houses whenever you want. Although Hejianyuan allocated twenty houses, they were scattered on several platforms in this valley. At present, there are two rows of houses on this platform, just like the character "Lu", with three rooms in the front row and five rooms in the back row. There are separations between houses, which do not affect each other.
The two injured people lived in the front row and the back row. The two sons of Amulin were not without tuberculosis in the city, but no one was willing to come. Most of them were waiting and watching, and many were unbelievers.
Seeing Xu Xiaole leaving, the young man suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I suddenly want to die."
The brother looked at him: "Hmm?"
Zhang Da'er also glared at him and said angrily: "A Bao! Xiaole has spent so much effort to pull you back from the gate of hell, you say such despicable words!"
Abao shook his head and said, "If I can't die for Brother Xiaole, I really don't know how to repay him."
His brother nodded slightly: "Yes!"
Zhang Da'er suddenly lost his temper and looked at the two brothers Abao and Ahu with some complexity. After a long time, he said: "Only by living can you repay him well. I know that Xiaole is a person. He will not take risks at any time, nor will he put himself in a desperate situation. Naturally, we do not need to die for him. If you really want to repay him, you should take good care of your body, and the future will be long."
Although the two brothers were very happy that Xu Xiaole had the wisdom to protect himself, they also had some regrets. Sometimes it was so strange that others had saved their lives. It seemed that one life would be paid for one life, but they still owe others the kindness. This is probably what the ancients said that the grace of a drop of water should be repaid with a spring of water.
Unfortunately, the grace of saving lives is as great as the sky, and it is no longer possible to repay it twice as much.
