Chapter 70 The Past
Chapter 70 The Past
The sharp and ear-piercing sonic attack of the heavenly magic sound array is just an appearance, and the long tone is an opportunity to awaken the fearful memory of the people in the zither array. In the battle of the same rank, this is an absolute attack method, but the high-rank rank Applying to low-level positions is not just as simple as experience.
Due to the difference in levels, the changes of the zither array can be manipulated in a more nuanced manner in the hands of the caster, so that the heavenly magic sound array can invade people's hearts without causing irreversible damage. Face up to the opportunities within yourself.
Finding the root of the fear, and then defeating it, will bring no harm to the future path of cultivating immortals.
It can be said that this is a great gift from Ye Xiaoxiao to the future juniors and juniors, but the process of receiving the gift is arduous.
Cang Li let out a long breath, temporarily put aside the matter of self-torture, and looked at Ning Zhong who was beside him with a painful expression.
Well, now Ning Zhong's face has lost his usual calm look, and his pair of beautiful eyebrows are tightly knit together, as if seeing something he doesn't want to see, and his cheeks are stained with a touch of blush due to the ups and downs of emotions Beads of sweat were constantly oozing out from his forehead because of panic, but it seemed to have a special flavor.
There was a low panting sound in his ears, which seemed to contain a little sobbing sound, which made Cang Li uncontrollably think of the beautiful scenery he saw when he helped Ning Zhong to train Qi.
No, now is not the time to think about these!
Cang Li's body was slightly stiff, and he recited the Qingxin Jue very skillfully in his heart. He felt guilty, and Ning Zhong was clearly suffering from pain, but his mind was full of bad thoughts. It really shouldn't be!
But having said that, what would Ning Zhong fear?
Curious to know, but wouldn't it be a bad idea to snoop on memories without permission?But I really want to take a look, anyway, Ning Zhong will not know that he has seen it, will he?Just... just take a look!
After Cang Li experienced quite a short period of entanglement, shame was no match for curiosity after all. He coughed lightly, silently gathered his spiritual power in the palm of his hand, adjusted his own spiritual power fluctuations to be exactly the same as Ning Zhong's, and then He stretched out his hands to cover Ning Zhong's shoulders.
Almost as soon as the palm of the hand touched the shoulder, some images that did not belong to Cangli's memory flooded in, and he froze there immediately, with a slight tingling pain in his heart. If possible, he really hoped to know Ning Zhong earlier , but even if I met him at that time, I'm afraid I wouldn't take the initiative to lend a helping hand...
On a cold winter day, there was a ragged boy, who was carrying a dying man on his back, staggering along.
"Father, it doesn't matter. There is a pharmacy in front of you, and you will be saved there! Before that, you are absolutely not allowed to fall asleep!"
The young man gritted his teeth, blinked his eyes quickly, and tried hard to squeeze out the tears seeping from the corners of his eyes. He pretended to be calm and told the man beside him, while talking, his legs were trembling.
The boy's body is not strong, and it is not easy to support the weight of an adult, not to mention, he has been walking with his father on his back for three full hours!
The legs seemed to be no longer their own, they were numb and stiff, and they couldn't even feel the cold.
However, as long as he can still move, he will carry his father on his back until he is rescued.
"Huh...huh, Zhong'er...stop...stop...it's useless...I'm..." The man panted heavily, his voice was intermittent, and every word he said seemed to have exhausted his entire life's strength.
"Don't say it!" The young man couldn't help but said angrily, even if he hadn't finished speaking, he knew what the man wanted to say, this is father and son.
"If you keep talking nonsense, I will sue my mother when I visit my mother next year!" The young man threatened fiercely with a fierce face.
"Huh...huh..."
It's really a childish threat...
The man wanted to laugh a little, but he couldn't laugh no matter what. He could only prove that he was still alive through violent panting.
That's right, his Zhong'er, who was originally a child, was supposed to be the most carefree age, but he was about to suffer from such an accident.
All because of his ignorance and incompetence.
He wanted to live and watch Zhong'er grow up and start a family with his own eyes, but today's hurdle, he probably... won't be able to pass it.
Zhong'er led him past one medical center and drugstore after another. No medical center was willing to treat him, and no pharmacy was willing to sell them medicinal materials. The skin is worn out, but the only harvest is cold eyes and sweeping out.
In fact, these are all expected, because he...is a wanted criminal...
Many people in this world have compassion, but that is without endangering their own lives.
He is the most wanted criminal at the highest level. If you extend a helping hand to him, you are an accomplice. The person sent by the court to kill him is his brother in the past. That guy didn't have the heart to kill him. A loophole allowed him to escape successfully.
The injury is so severe, if it is not healed, it is impossible to survive.
I'm afraid the brother who let him go on purpose didn't think that there was really no one willing to save him.
After all, his brother, like himself, is a reckless man who has strength but is not smart enough.
Notices about him were posted all over the streets and alleys, and he was wanted for treason.
Treason has always been the biggest crime, so no one dares to lend a helping hand to him, for fear of being called an accomplice.
So no matter how much white eyes and indifference, he should bear it now. The only thing that makes him feel unwilling is-why his child should be treated like that!Obviously his Zhong'er is so good...so good...
"Ah! It's here!" The boy's voice suddenly rose, pulling back the man's consciousness that was about to drift away.
In front of you is a pharmacy, the house is a bit dilapidated, but the medicinal materials in the room are neatly arranged, and the variety is quite complete. The owner of the pharmacy is a fat middle-aged man, who is sitting in front of the counter and dozing off with his chin propped up, completely oblivious to anyone Come in.
"Shopkeeper? Shopkeeper? Wake up, shopkeeper!" The young man walked into the pharmacy, yelled a few times but failed to wake up the shopkeeper, so he could only howl at the top of his voice.
"What...what are you doing?" The pharmacy owner was frightened, and sat up in a jerk, his eyes fell on the two people in the room, and his eyes were probing.
An injured man and a child dressed in rags, it doesn't look like much money!
The owner of the pharmacy yawned, and the energy he had just raised disappeared suddenly.
"Um...Mr. shopkeeper, do you see a doctor? My father is injured, I hope you can help!" The young man raised his head and looked at the pharmacy owner expectantly. His eyes were black and bright, and there was a The ray of hope.
"Ah, if you want to get medical treatment, go to the medical center. I sell medicine here, not treat wounds. It's really... well, turn right after leaving this street and walk a few steps, there is a medical center. If you want to see a doctor Just go there."
The pharmacy owner waved his hands impatiently, pushed the boy and the man to the door, pointed in the direction of the pharmacy, and then sat down in front of the counter, resting his chin and taking a nap.
That direction... is the direction they just came from!
The boy's eyes dimmed, he wiped away the tears seeping from the corners of his eyes, turned around resolutely, and knelt down in front of the fat boss with a "plop".
"Sir, I beg you! I beg you to save my father! You run such a big pharmacy, even if you are not a doctor in charge, you must know which medicinal materials can save lives! Please...please prescribe some prescriptions !"
The young man lay on the ground, his voice trembling with fear. He had already visited all the medical centers and pharmacies in Pingle City, and this was the last one. If it still didn't work, he really didn't know what to do.
"Why doesn't it make sense? I told you to go to the doctor's office. Your father suffered such a serious injury. With my three-legged cat skills, you give me a doctor? Ninety percent of the time, your father will be cured to death." The shopkeeper rubbed his fat face and impatiently picked out his ears.
"Ninety percent chance of curing death, that is to say, [-]% certainty of curing life!"
The young man stared closely at the fat boss, a glimmer of hope ignited in his eyes, he bent down with a dignified and stubborn expression.
"Boom" "Boom" "Boom"
Three crisp and powerful sounds were the collision of forehead and ground.
"I beg you! Help my father!"
The fat boss frowned, the flesh on his face was piled up together, he didn't look very friendly, "I said, little devil, don't you understand human language? Sending your father to any medical center is better than me." Death is strong! Wait, could it be that..."
The fat boss walked up to the boy and lifted the man's chin. After seeing the man's face clearly, he finally realized it.
No wonder this brat has been hanging around here and refuses to leave, he must have been rejected by those clinics, but what's the point of hanging around him?Could it be that this young man is blind and thinks he is a bad guy?
The fat boss glanced at the boy expressionlessly. At this moment, the boy's face was full of panic, as if he was worried that the fat boss would recognize his father and refuse to help him. His petite features twisted together, like a A miserable little cat.
The fat boss sighed, feeling soft-hearted for a moment, but this soft-heartedness didn't last long. He looked at the boy and asked coldly: "Do you have any money? Your father became like this mainly because of excessive blood loss and wound infection. In addition, the high fever has persisted and dragged on for too long, among other things, the medicinal materials used to stop bleeding, reduce inflammation, and reduce fever require a lot of money, can you... can you afford it?"
The young man froze there immediately, his body trembling uncontrollably, he had money before, but he was tricked by someone on the way here...
It's all because he is too stupid, he just believes in other people's words casually, if he can be more cautious, he won't...
"Money...I don't have it now, but I will definitely earn a lot of money and return it to you in the future! Please let me pay on credit once! Please save my father!"
The boy's eyes were reddish, and his pale lips were trembling, but no matter how he controlled it, he couldn't hide the crying in his voice.
The fat boss glanced at the boy lightly, and returned to the counter expressionlessly. The boy's expression was like a taut string, as if he would break down and cry as long as he said one more word of refusal.
However, unnecessary compassion will only lead to trouble, so even if his conscience is slightly disturbed, he will not hesitate to answer.
"No! Take money for medicine, otherwise we won't talk about it."
The fat boss held his chin, half-closed his eyes, and stopped talking to the boy.
The young man pursed his lips, and knelt there motionless, with an extremely desperate expression, his whole face was bloodless.
"Hey, brat!" The fat boss knocked on the counter and said suddenly.
The boy's eyes lit up, and he looked expectantly at the fat boss, but what the fat boss said was not what he expected.
"Hurry up and take your father out, don't wait to die in this pharmacy like me, and get bad luck for nothing."
An understatement became the last straw that crushed the young man. Tears that had been suppressed for a long time welled up in his eyes. He shivered and carried the man on his back, and roared at the fat boss: "My father has helped the poor all his life. He is a kind person who saves the dying and heals the wounded! He is a great hero! It is different from people like you who only know money! I will take my father away, but not because I am afraid of bringing you bad luck, but because you have already been here. Polluted by the smell of dirty copper! I don't want... I don't want my dad to smell like your copper stench!"
After yelling these words, the boy walked out of the drug store with the man on his back. Although his steps were faltering, they were extremely firm.
"What an inexplicable brat, he was kicked out after all, so what's the point of making excuses." The fat boss rested his chin on his hands and murmured unhappily.
But having said that, the boy's tear-stained face was imprinted in his mind, and he couldn't shake it off...
"Hey, look at that kid over there, he looks so pitiful!"
"Yeah, could it be a lack of money? How about we help?"
"Supporting what? Didn't you see the man on his back? Ning Yongge! That traitor! If it wasn't for him, why would there be a war? Although the war has subsided now, how many families are still displaced? It's all because of him!"
"What? So it's him! Then let's report to the government!"
"Hey, what officer are you reporting to? Haven't you heard? The general came here today, and although he didn't kill Ning Yongge on the spot, he was seriously injured. If there is no one to help him, he won't survive for long!"
"Then...why not just kill him?"
"Oh, I'm so stupid. Can't the court understand what this means? It's fishing with bait! Just to catch some remnants of the rebels! Because in this case, the only ones who help him are the remnants of the rebels!"
"God...God! Then let's stay away! It's bad if we are misunderstood!"
"Yes, yes, let's go!"
……
The voice was undisguised, and reached the ears of the boy and the man without even falling to the ground. The boy's shoulders trembled a few times, but they quickly returned to normal.
He has heard similar words countless times. Compared with the initial impulsiveness and unforgivable anger, now he is so calm that he can pretend that he has not heard it.
Anyway, he couldn't save his father, so what's the point of arguing about those boring things?
The boy drooped his head and walked aimlessly with slow steps.
He didn't know where he was supposed to go, let alone what to do, his father's life was passing by, but he could only watch helplessly, nothing... couldn't be done!
"Huh...Zhong'er, stop...Today's night sky...is beautiful, I want...to appreciate the stars."
The man's voice came intermittently, and the young man's body was slightly stiff. In the end, he didn't refute anything, and obediently stopped.
He tore off a piece of the thin clothes on his body and spread it under the man's body, curled up into a small ball, staring blankly at the night sky in a daze.
"It's so beautiful...just like your mother..."
The man lay on the ground looking at the bright starry sky, his spirit gradually cleared up, and even his strength recovered a little.
The man knows that this is the flashback before setting foot on the road to hell.
He half-supported his body with strength, stretched out his hand and stroked the boy's head, "Zhong'er, I'm sorry, Dad misses your mother so much, so I can only... take a step ahead..."
The boy's body became very stiff in an instant, and his father's big hand was as gentle as ever, but it lost the temperature it used to be, and became cold and stiff.
The young man pursed his lips, but couldn't bear it after all, threw himself into the man's arms and began to cry loudly...
The boy's name is Ning Zhong, Ning of Ning Yongge, and Zhong of Zhong Ningxing.
Although the name is a bit random, Ning Zhong doesn't mind it, because his father said that names become meaningful because of their personality. If you are a good person, you will leave a good name, and if you are a wicked person, you will leave a good name notoriety.
I heard from my father that my mother is the most beautiful woman in the world, no matter in terms of talent or temperament, she is the best in the world.
It's a pity that beauties are so short-lived since ancient times. When Ning Zhong didn't remember anything, God took his mother away. His father was depressed for a long time, accompanied by wine every day. Later, because of Ning Zhong's negligence in taking care of him, he fell seriously ill. Ning Yongge had no choice but to get out of grief and face life again after almost dying in Huangquan.
After Ning Zhong remembered things, they would often go to sit on the grave of their mother and talk. Ning Yongge would always say how careless Ning Zhong was, and Ning Zhong would complain about his father doing it again. What a stupid thing, it happens every year, the two of you are always together, but it dilutes the sadness of Zhong Ningxing's death.
Gradually, the nosy dad came back.
The relationship between father and mother stems from the grace of saving lives.
The biggest characteristic of Ning Yongge is that he is just and nosy. He has saved hundreds of lives, and Zhong Ningxing is one of them.
Ning Yongge felt that God must have been touched by his chivalrous behavior, which gave him a chance to save Zhong Ningxing.
Two people with great kindness met in this way.
The happiest thing in this world is that the person you love happens to love you too. You are lovers and confidants.
Ning Yongge and Zhong Ningxing are probably the good-natured stories that storytellers would tell. They traveled to countless places together, opened sheds to give out porridge under natural disasters, and helped each other in the face of man-made disasters. They scattered a lot of money and saved countless lives.
They were wearing coarse clothes, but they felt very fulfilled. They knew each other and loved each other, and gave birth to the crystallization of love.
Zhong Ningxing's body is very weak. Although Ning Yongge saved her life when she first met, she also suffered from the root cause of the disease. After giving birth to the child, Zhong Ningxing's body became weaker and weaker, and she died two years later.
Ning Yongge was sluggish for a long time, he even wanted to follow Zhong Ningxing away, but it was the cries of children in his ears that pulled him back from the cliff again and again.
No matter how painful the heart is, you have to cheer up and start again.
He took the little Ning Zhong to travel around again, and together with Ning Zhong, he was doing the unfinished things he had agreed with Zhong Ningxing.
He saved many more people, but it is a pity that among the people he saved was an enemy general. Later, the war broke out. Although Ning Yongge's country won, the victory was tragic. The enemy general was ambushed. Said that he had been saved by Ning Yongge.
Although the war is over, the anger of the people is hard to dissipate, and the court needs an outlet.
So Ning Yongge became a traitor.
……
"Woooo...Father, I don't understand, it's obviously...it's not your fault! You just saved people out of kindness, they...why do they call you a traitor!"
Ning Zhong flung himself into Ning Yongge's arms, crying out of breath, his shoulders trembled as violently as his voice.
Ning Yongge just smiled faintly, patting Ning Zhong on the head once and for all, comforting silently.
"Wuwuwu, dad, why, why is no one willing to help us? Even if there is only one person... that's fine..."
Ning Yongge sighed softly, and said softly: "They also have their own difficulties, what's more, father's situation is clear to him, even if they are willing to save them, they can't save them... So, don't blame others... If you want to blame, just It's useless to blame the father for not being able to see through that man's identity in the first place..."
Hearing this, Ning Zhong's body tensed up suddenly, he held Ning Yongge's clothes tightly, and roared: "I don't blame Dad! It's those people! They're all a bunch of villains who don't want to be saved! God is so unfair, obviously my parents saved so many people, but they all ended up like this... from now on... I will never help others again!"
"Zhong'er! Cough...cough cough..."
"Father... how are you, dad?" Ning Zhong widened his eyes in shock, he supported the man, and patted the man's back carefully.
Ning Yongge was a little agitated, he clutched his chest and coughed violently for a while before he recovered.
He looked at the face in front of him that was [-]% similar to Ning Xing, and sighed leisurely, "Zhong'er, let me ask you, if at this time, someone took the initiative to lend a helping hand to daddy, how would you feel?"
"I think he is an angel. I am grateful and remember him forever." Ning Zhong pursed his lips and answered seriously.
"Then Zhong'er, why do you want to become someone you hate instead of an angel?" Ning Yongge gently stroked Ning Zhong's head with gentle movements and a gentle voice.
Ning Zhong stood there blankly, with a blank expression.
"Zhong'er, you have to understand that many people in this world have a heart of compassion, but people love themselves more. Some people are not unwilling to help us, but because of the power of rumors or fear of being implicated, they shrink back. That’s all, when compassion meets desire to survive, the latter is always better.”
"Sages say that great love is selfless, but I think great love can be selfish, but true great love requires wisdom."
Ning Yongge looked at Ning Zhong quietly, his eyes were full of reminiscence, "Everyone has selfishness, your mother and I are no exception, but your mother and I are smarter. You can always find a way to clear your conscience. Zhong'er, if there is a real traitor in front of you, he is dying, and you happen to have the ability to save him, will you save him or not?"
"Of course I..." Before finishing speaking, Ning Zhong stopped suddenly.
"I won't save..."
Before his father's accident, the word traitor was the villain among the villains to him. Seeing the retribution of the traitor, he would be fine if he didn't step on it. How could he save people?
but……
"What if that person was wronged just like my father? It would be too..." Ning Zhong lowered his eyes, unable to see the emotion in them.
"That's right, so if it's up to Dad, Dad will save the person first and then send him to the government. He doesn't ask for anything else, but asks for a clear conscience."
"Yes... yes! It's okay!"
Ning Zhong stood up with a "whoosh", starlight flashed in his eyes, he fiddled for a long time trying to put Ning Yongge on his back again, "I...I'll tell those people right now, maybe they will Someone is willing to save dad!"
With great difficulty, he carried the man on his back, took two trembling steps, and fell to the ground because of exhaustion, his legs seemed to be filled with lead, as if they weighed a thousand catties.
"Cough cough, cough cough, Zhong'er, don't force yourself, daddy knows his body well, he can't save it...you just stay here and talk to daddy in the end, okay?" Suddenly fell, Ning Yong Ge was stimulated to cough up a mouthful of blood, and said in a hoarse voice.
"Father... I'm sorry." Ning Zhong pursed his lips lightly and clenched his fists tightly. He somewhat resented his small body for being so useless at a critical moment!
Tears glistened in the corners of his eyes, his vision became blurred, and he seemed to see a chubby figure vaguely.
Ning Zhong was stunned, and quickly wiped away his tears, only then did he see clearly who that figure was.
Strange, it was the chubby shopkeeper of the pharmacy just now, what is he doing here?Did you come here specifically to sneer?
Ning Zhong clenched his fists and looked sharply at the chubby figure, with an unconcealable hostility on his face.
"Oh, it's really tiring to manage the shop by yourself, and it's really troublesome if you don't even have someone to help take out the trash."
The fat boss was carrying a black cloth bag, and found a clean place to throw it away. He clapped his hands, turned around and left without looking at the two people on the side of the road.
What are you doing?Why did you come here to throw things?Ning Zhong's eyes showed a trace of confusion, a little confused.
Ning Yongge reacted quickly, he looked at the man's thick back and said, "Thank you very much."
"Where is the insanity, I just throw a piece of trash and thank me? It's really inexplicable." The fat boss didn't care, and walked away muttering.
Ning Zhong seemed to have realized something, he rushed to the cloth bag, opened it carefully, and when he saw the so-called "garbage" inside, a faint smile appeared on his face involuntarily.
These "garbage" are all prepared decoctions and ointments, which are for external application and internal use, clearly classified, and marked with the name, efficacy and usage of the medicine.
At this moment, Ning Zhong felt that the resentment and anger that he had accumulated for a whole day disappeared in an instant.
He quickly put medicine on the man. He didn't know if these things alone could snatch his father back from the hands of God. He only knew that he should do his best and obey the destiny.
……
In the end, God still took away Daddy's life. That night, Daddy was very excited and talked to him for a long time.
Father said that he never regretted saving that enemy general, the only regret was that he didn't kill him himself when he knew the truth.
Dad also said that the most fortunate thing in his life is that he meddled in his own business. Although his life ended because he saved someone who shouldn't be saved, he did indeed reap true love because of his meddling. The happiest years.
The only regret is that I can't continue to accompany Ning Zhong...
He really wanted to condense the stars so much, so he could only... take a step ahead...
After Ning Yongge left, Ning Zhong settled in this city, doing some very ordinary things and growing up slowly.
He became a herb picker, perhaps because of the blessing of his parents in heaven, he could always pick some high-quality medicinal materials. Many pharmacies wanted to buy the medicines he picked, but he only sold them to one pharmacy.
The boss of that pharmacy is a bit fat and has a bad personality, but Ning Zhong... is very grateful to him.
……
The author has something to say: I finished watching the first season of Zhenhun Street two days ago.
Blow up ah ah ah ah! ! !
I can't express my shocking feeling. The rhythm of the plot and the interlocking are the realm I have always wanted to pursue!So amazing!
So my long-suffering ambition began to burn again!very excited!
I am a bit superstitious, so I changed my pen name, but I am confused about what to change it to, because there is only one chance to change my pen name, and I initially decided to "do not take the usual path", but it seems too memoryless, but this name is very auspicious, So tangled (T_T)
