dark crossing

Chu Huainan finally understood what it means to hold Buddha's feet temporarily.

Probably, once encountering a situation that cannot be controlled by human ability alone, even rational atheists who believe in science will also be driven to the shrine by anxiety.

Shen Ting failed to wake up for a long time.In the early morning of the second day after his operation, Chu Huainan called Grandma Chu who had been worshiping Buddha for many years, and begged Grandma Chu to help Shen Ting offer incense sticks.

In the early years, he even ridiculed Qiao Yilan who went to ask God for news of his lover as a "feudal remnant".

The one Qiao Yilan likes also poked his heart and lungs, and after several catastrophes, he encountered certain doom.Qiao Yilan, who was so frightened that half of her soul lost her soul, invited a priest from Yanyun Mountain who was rumored to be able to communicate with yin and yang.

The Lianmo Temple in Yanyun Mountain is well-known far and wide, and the Taoist priest's sentence "If you are not a ghost in the underworld, you are still a person in the world of the world" became the last straw for Qiao Yilan, who never believed in ghosts and gods.

The parents of the Chu family believed in Buddhism, but the Avalokitesvara on the altar at home was sympathetic but silent. Grandma Chu burned incense for two days, and Shen Ting still didn't wake up.

Chu Qiubai's increasingly ugly face made Chu Huainan vomit blood in anxiety.

He pushed Chu Qiubai so hard that in the end, the cousin hid when he saw him, and said with a guilty face: "I know you are anxious, but I'm just a doctor and I really don't know how to tell fortunes. What I can do is to do my best and wait for the destiny, I really can't tell you when he will wake up." In front of Chu Huainan, he didn't dare to say it clearly, he only dared to slander: Normally, when he sent it, he would never wake up. woke up.

These words were pertinent and objective, but they made Chu Huainan burn inside.

Can't tell fortunes, can you?Then find a fortune teller!

Qiao Yilan, who came to deliver the fruit basket, was forced by Chu Huainan to make an appointment with the Taoist priest in person.The capitalists worked tirelessly and traveled [-] kilometers back and forth that day. In the morning, the plane went to Lianmo Temple in Yanyun Mountain, and in the afternoon, they returned to Jianghu.

It's amazing to say that the Taoist priest has never seen a stranger, and the voice he heard through the curtain is very young.After learning the birth dates of Chu Huainan and Shen Ting, he was stunned for a long time, then sighed and said, "Such a reincarnation is really wonderful."

Chu Huainan paid homage to the gods and offered incense. The Taoist priest finished arranging the horoscope and approving the fleeting years. Looking at the red paper in front of him, he pondered for a while and said: "The believer has an answer to this question. This calamity is inherent in his destiny. Although Dangerous but can always turn danger into good fortune, so as not to hurt people's lives."

Chu Huainan was so anxious that his mouth was bitter, and he wanted to ask again.The other party returned with a smile: "Please go back, it's raining in the mountains, I'm afraid I might miss the return journey."

The sky is bright and clear outside, where is the rain coming from?

Chu Huainan knew that this was the words of the Taoist priest to thank the guests, but fortunately, the hexagram was auspicious, so he didn't force it any more, leaving a hundred thousand bonds and asking for a perfect compliment.Unexpectedly, this strange Taoist refused to accept it, and said: "This is a good fortune that is in his life. I can't help it, and it's not a secret, so there is no need to recite cause and effect. Xiangqian Believers just now I have given it, and I cannot accept the money."

Even though capitalists have never believed in it, they still know that generally good fortune-tellers ask for more money, while bad fortune-tellers ask for less.

This Taoist fortune teller refused to accept money?

How bad are they?

The Taoist leader seemed to be able to read his face through the curtain, and said with a smile: "I only spent 10 minutes, and a few words, the believer must be dubious in his heart. Go back and see if I am right. If it is not approved, then there is no need to come to my Lian Mo Temple again, if it is approved, Lian Mo Temple has been repaired in the past ten years, and there will be a letter of trust."

Chu Huainan promises a thousand gold: "As long as he can wake up, I am willing to help you repair the Taoist temple for 20 years, no matter what."

After going down the mountain, as soon as I got into the car, there were gray and dark clouds, and suddenly there was lightning and thunder, and it really rained heavily.

The rain was as heavy as beans, but Chu Huainan's heart suddenly lightened.

That Taoist priest was not quite like a quack doctor who talked nonsense. He said that there was rain in the mountains, and it did rain after a while. Then he said that he would wake up after listening carefully, and he would definitely get his wish.

……

Shen Ting slept until the afternoon of the third day after the operation before really waking up.

Through the glass of the ICU, Chu Huainan's black and white eyes were covered with bloodshot eyes. No matter who came to watch, he could feel the burning and burning in his eyes. It was so hot that the thickened glass almost stared out a hole.

Shen Ting's consciousness only recovered briefly, as if he came here specially to reassure the capitalists, but he fell back into a coma shortly after waking up.

But no matter what, waking up is a sign of improvement.

In Chu Qiubai's words, this operation consumed too much, and his surviving death is considered a virtue of his ancestors, with a deep lingering shadow, it is unrealistic to expect him to be alive and kicking in three days.

Chu Huainan stared at Shen Ting's face wearing an oxygen mask, and asked him casually, "Which family's ancestor are you talking about?"

Chu Qiu gave him a blank look: "Of course it belongs to the Chu family. Isn't he from the same family as you? He entered the door of our Chu family..." He paused for a moment, then suddenly heyed suspiciously: "Could it be You entered his house! So it was the ancestors of their Shen family who blessed them?" Director Chu, who was quite macho, turned dark and gave him an incomparably contemptuous look: "Chu Huainan, the face of our Chu family has been covered by you. Lost it all!"

Chu Huainan: ...

For Chu Qiubai's sake of saving Shen Ting, he could not strangle him to death, but leave him alive for the time being.

Every day since Shen Ting's operation, Secretary Wang Xiaojun would stand in the corridor of the ICU holding a pile of unprocessed documents.

As the current head of the Chu family, Chu Huainan has many responsibilities that he must shoulder, but he does not want to be separated from the future Mrs. Chu for a second.So, the female secretary who knows how to adapt temporarily put a table in the corridor.

During the period when Shen Ting was in a coma, the difficult ICU corridor became Chu Huainan's temporary office.

In fact, only three days had passed, yet it seemed like three years had been spent.

The early death of his parents made Chu Huainan learn to fear death early on, while Shen Ting made him eager to live.

Fortunately, Shen Ting's health was in good shape and his recovery was gratifying. After lying in the ICU for a week, he was finally transferred to a general ward where visitors were allowed amidst Chu Huainan's "celebrating" smile.

After being transferred to the ordinary ward, the capitalist dictatorially issued an order strictly prohibiting visitation, but he "only allowed the state officials to set fire, and not to light the common people." He forced an extra bed in the single ward, and spent 24 hours with people. Only then did I feel a little bit of comfort to my restless heart.

At noon on the second day after Shen Ting turned the corner, Ward 1101 was finally opened for visitation.

Pan Xiaozhu was a little late because he was temporarily away from work.Outside the glass door of the ward, a nurse on duty sat at the door, drinking yogurt and swiping her phone.

Pan Xiaozhu rushed out of the elevator in a hurry, holding a fruit basket in one hand and a bouquet in the other, watching the time jump mercilessly from 59:[-] to [-]:[-], and the visiting time at noon passed.

The little nurse locked the electronic glass door with a beep, and the old god continued to watch the jokes on Moments.

Pan Xiaozhu squeezed out a kind smile at the little nurse who was at least five years younger than him: "Sorry, I'm here to see someone, the meeting at noon is late, can you please accommodate me?"

The little nurse raised her head: "How many beds?"

"1101."

Hearing the bed number, the little nurse lowered her head with a straw in her mouth, and said two words clangingly: "No."

Pan Xiaozhu pleaded with her shyly: "Miss sister, just do me a favor, okay? I'll just go in for a while! I promise not to affect other patients!" Miserable: "Hey, my brother is just my sister. He had such a major operation, and I couldn't be with him because I was too busy with work. I managed to get two hours off today. I just got out of the unit that eats people and doesn't spit out bones to see him! You just have to be flexible!"

The little nurse looked at her half-raised: "Your brother is the only sister?"

Pan Xiaozhu nodded to her emotionally with tears in his eyes: "Yes, he is the only one left alone, and I will depend on him for life. Young lady, please let me go in and have a look at him."

The little nurse opened the door for her with a suppressed smile, bit the straw and said, "Five minutes! Be gentle so as not to disturb other patients' rest."

Pan Xiaozhu entered the ward gratefully, and was dumbfounded when he opened the door of room 1101.In an instant, it seemed as if someone grabbed her by the hair and grabbed her in front of the little nurse who was just in charge of guarding the door, and slapped her mouth twice.

In the legendary "unaccompanied" Shen Ting's ward, people five and six were crowded with each other.

Wendi leaned on the bedside table with one leg bent, and put the other foot on the ground, talking loudly: "The little nurse at the door is really hard to talk! When I arrived at 11:30, she said that there were too many people in the Shen team room, and we were not allowed to I'll come in! I said I was Team Shen's long-lost younger brother, and I almost cried and knelt down for her before she allowed me to come in and visit her."

The irascible dragon Chen Cong, who thought he had already "disappeared and died" during the pursuit, was actually injured less seriously than Shen Ting. He leaned on a cane and put on a plaster cast, standing in front of the hospital bed with one leg and two thick, laughing. "Fortunately, you don't need to be sentenced for lying, otherwise you might get a heavier sentence than Liang Shuo."

When chasing Mu Mingsheng, he abandoned the car just in time and jumped out of the car before the fuel tank exploded, so luckily he only broke his left leg and scratched half of his face. There are also reddish-purple scabs.

Shen Ting was lying on the bed, still breathing oxygen, although his face was pale, he was in good spirits.He can't sit up by himself yet, but fortunately, Chu Huainan is sitting by his bed, leaning over his ear to listen to him from time to time, the capitalist who is busy with everything is willing to be the mouthpiece of human flesh.

After another 10 minutes in such a lively manner, the little nurse who came to make the rounds began to chase people away roughly.The whole room of upright "ghosts and snake gods" was cleared out, and the room was completely clean.

Pan Xiaozhu, the younger sister who "depends on each other" with Shen Ting, ran into Lu Xinghe in the corridor of the ward.Because she was so busy with work, she suddenly remembered that Lin Youbandi seemed to live in this hospital as well.
