Rebirth do not come

Chapter 53

Ah Huang turned on the car lights, Shui Xiangdong looked at Ni Hui who was so thin that his two big eyes were sunken, his eye sockets were almost cracked, and tears almost rolled down his face.Ni Hui laughed silly at him, Shui Xiangdong really wanted to hold this guy in his arms, and then spank his ass hard.

Ah Huang said, "Ni Hui, is this your friend?"

Shui Xiangdong stabilized his mood: "No, I am Ni Hui's brother."

Ni Hui didn't deny it either: "Is there anything to eat, I'm starving to death."

Shui Xiangdong put down his backpack and said bitterly: "I told you to run around, you deserve it if you starve to death." He took out the chocolate from the backpack and handed it to him.

Ni Hui took it over and gave one piece to Ah Huang and two pieces to the couple in the back seat. He hurriedly tore the packaging of the chocolate, but he couldn’t tear it open. His fingers were weak, so Shui Xiangdong took it from him. Help him tear it apart.

Ni Hui hurriedly took a big mouthful of chocolate, devoured it, and ate it too fast, feeling like he was choking, and Shui Xiangdong had already handed over the mineral water.Ni Hui took it and drank it naturally, and Shui Xiangdong said: "Eat slowly, don't choke. How long have you not eaten?"

The girl in the back seat said: "Two days. Brother, you are such an angel, this place can come to help you in need."

Her boyfriend said: "Don't bark, she is obviously younger than you."

"You're younger than me, and you're called big brother. The kindness of saving your life is unforgettable." The girl said vaguely, swallowing the chocolate.

The people in the front and rear cars all saw the water coming to the east, and they all watched them eating at this moment, and all looked at them eagerly.

Ni Hui took a sip of water and coughed a few times. Shui Xiangdong reached out and patted his back, thinking he was choking, but Ni Hui still coughed for a long time before stopping. Sniffing: "Is there a tissue?"

Shui Xiangdong realized something was wrong: "Are you caught a cold?" He stretched out his hand to touch his forehead.

Ni Hui took the tissue from Shui Xiangdong, tilted his head back, wiped his nose, panted and said, "A little bit."

The water is rushing to the east. It is not a trivial matter to catch a cold on this plateau. I looked at the twilight sky and said, "I will take you across the bridge. I have a car over there. Let's go to the hospital quickly."

Ni Hui said, "I'm fine, just a little cold."

Shui yelled at him to the east: "Where do you think this is, even a small cold will kill you!"

Ni Hui looked at him, lowered his head and ate chocolate: "It's not safe to drive at night."

Shui Xiangdong said: "It doesn't matter. He is an experienced old driver. It's better to let him drive slowly than to wait until dawn. The longer I delay, the more worried I will be. Brother Huang, what do you think?" Shui Xiangdong Chong Ah Huang said.

Ah Huang nodded: "Yes. Ni Hui, your brother is right. You have to go to the hospital as soon as possible. It's too cold here. You don't know what will happen if you freeze overnight."

Ni Hui said, "You told me to slow down. I've been hungry for two days and I don't have the energy to walk."

Shui Xiangdong said, "Eat something before we go. If you can't go, I'll carry you on your back."

Ni Hui refused without thinking: "You don't need to memorize it, I will go by myself."

The way they talked was not like friends at all. It felt that Shui Xiangdong had been taking care of Ni Hui, and Ni Hui felt a little awkward.The young couple in the back seat whispered to each other, and the girl said, "Why do they look like a young couple?"

The boy said: "No, you think too much, he is a brother." Around 2000, people's perception of homosexuality was not so common, and most people would not think about it.

Ni Hui ate a piece of chocolate and a few egg yolk pies, and finally felt much more comfortable in his stomach. He wanted to eat more, but was stopped by Shui Xiangdong: "Don't eat too much at once, lest your stomach can't bear it, I'll eat it later." eat."

Ni Hui said, "I'm starving to death, so I won't let me eat."

Ah Huang said: "Ni Hui, listen to your brother, he is right." Ah Huang felt that Shui Xiangdong was really a good brother, so he went all the way to find him in this place where no shit.

Ni Hui took a sip of water and asked Shui Xiangdong, "How did you find this place?"

Shui Xiangdong said: "You haven't called me for several days. I guess something happened on the road. I went to Lhasa to inquire about the news. The people there said that the Yunnan-Tibet line was interrupted and there was a mudslide on the road. I I rented a car and came to look for you along the road. Fortunately, I was lucky to meet you here."

Ni Hui looked at Shui Xiangdong and didn't make a sound. He knew that if Shui Xiangdong disappeared, he wouldn't bother to take care of it and let it run its course.

Ah Huang said: "Then you really care about your brother so much. In fact, I was mentally prepared to take the Yunnan-Tibet line. I might be blocked on the road at any time, but I didn't expect it to be blocked for so long. Everyone was a little careless. Some people I have no experience, and I don’t have much dry food, so everyone shared the dry food with each other.” As he said this, a woman came in the front car: “Hi, do you have anything to eat? Can you sell us some? ?”

Ah Huang looked at Shui Xiangdong, and Shui Xiangdong looked at Ni Hui, and Ni Hui said, "Give some to everyone, you said that we are going to leave later, we just keep some for ourselves, and leave the rest to Ah Huang." Deal with it, everyone has been hungry for two days."

Shui nodded to the east: "Okay." He opened the 70-liter backpack and took out things from it. They were all high-energy foods such as beef jerky, chocolate, salt-baked chicken legs, biscuits, egg yolk pies, luncheon meat, etc. Many common medicines such as cold medicine and Yunnan Baiyao.There was also a thick windproof jacket in plush, and I threw it to Ni Hui, "Put it on." Ni Hui decided to come to Tibet on the spur of the moment, so he didn't bring warm clothes at all.

Ni Hui quickly wrapped Shui Xiangdong's clothes around his body, feeling much warmer, Shui Xiangdong is quite reliable, Ni Hui raised the corners of his mouth.Shui Xiangdong left some food for himself and Ni Hui, and then left the rest for Ah Huang: "Brother Huang, thank you for taking care of Ni Hui these days, let's go first."

Ni Hui said, "Hey, let's go now?" He felt that he still had no strength.

"It's getting darker in a while, let's go. If you can't walk, I'll carry you on my back, come up." Shui Xiangdong hung his bag in front of him, and turned his back to Ni Hui.

Ni Hui hurriedly picked up his backpack, and said goodbye to Ah Huang and those two people: "Ah Huang, I'm leaving, brother Lei, sister Fang, goodbye."

Those few people were busy packing up and eating. Seeing them leaving, they waved their hands in a hurry. Ah Huang thought of something: "Ni Hui, wait a minute. I didn't take you to Lhasa. I will pay you back half of the fare." .”

Shui Xiangdong said, "Forget it, Brother Huang, let's go."

Ni Hui lay on Shui Xiangdong's back, and Shui Xiangdong handed the flashlight to Ni Hui: "You show me the way."

Ni Hui said: "Actually, I can go by myself after I rest for a while."

"You walk slowly." Shui Xiangdong said.

The night wind was very cold, and Ni Hui coughed a few times: "You can't go fast if you carry me on your back, it's so far away."

Shui Xiangdong hugged Ni Hui's leg and sent him on his back: "Not far, at most 2000 meters."

It is not easy to walk 2000 meters with two backpacks on your back. Ni Hui said: "You carry me for a while, and when I regain my strength, I will walk by myself. I am so sleepy. Get some sleep."

Shui Xiangdong said: "Don't sleep, wait until you get in the car, it's too cold outside, I already have a cold, it will get worse."

"I don't feel cold."

"You can't sleep then, talk to me." Shui Xiangdong said.

Ni Hui didn't dare to really sleep anymore, lying on Shui Xiangdong's back, bumping up and down as he walked, listening to his breathing and touching his heartbeat, he felt a sense of peace of mind. He denied that when he heard the water calling him eastward, he had a feeling that he was saved.

The two chatted one after another, and Ni Hui said: "The road we walked was blocked by mudslides not long after, a lot of rocks rolled down the mountain, and several cars coming from behind us Said, they are almost like acting in an American blockbuster, being chased by falling rocks, they really narrowly escaped death."

Shui Xiangdong said: "This road is very dangerous. The road is too bad. There was a huge mudslide last year, which destroyed the Tongmai Bridge in front. Have you seen it? The bridge slab is now paved. All of them are wooden boards, and the car drives over the boards.”

Ni Hui sniffed his nose: "No, I think it's too far away, and I don't have the strength to go."

"It's too dangerous to come here again. If you want to drive to Lhasa in the future, take the Qinghai-Tibet line. That's the safest road." Shui Xiangdong said.

Ni Hui said: "It's boring if you're safe, and what you want to play is your heartbeat. The scenery is not so beautiful."

Shui Xiangdong reached out and patted Ni Hui's thigh: "If you run around again, I'll tie you up with a belt."

Ni Hui blushed all of a sudden, Shui Xiangdong's action was too ambiguous, he became a little annoyed: "You let me down, I will go by myself."

Shui Xiangdong just made such an intimate gesture, he was secretly happy, when he heard what Ni Hui said, he said, "Can you go by yourself?"

Ni Hui said, "I'm not lame."

Shui Xiangdong put Ni Hui down: "Okay, you go for a while, I'll take a rest."

Ni Hui sneered at him: "You have to rest too, I thought you were so powerful that you could recite it in one breath."

Shui Xiangdong was not annoyed, he took the flashlight from Ni Hui and showed him the way: "You have no news, I haven't slept well for several nights."

Ni Hui stopped talking and quietly followed the water to the east, walking very slowly.Shui Xiangdong took off his schoolbag, walked slowly with two bags on his back, and gave him a piece of chocolate for him to eat while walking, and ate a piece for himself.

On the left is the vehicle, and on the right is the stone wall. Someone fell asleep in the car, and someone lit a firewood on the side of the road to keep warm. They all watched the two teenagers walking forward. Someone recognized the water to the east and greeted him: "found it?"

Shui Xiangdong said "um": "I found it."

Passers-by lamented that they had come so far to find someone.

After walking for a while, Ni Hui felt a little out of breath. Hearing that his voice was not right, Shui Xiangdong quickly stopped: "Come on, I'll carry you on my back, I have to hurry over to get oxygen in the car. I'll hurry up tonight." Go to August [-]st."

Ni Hui didn't object, and lay down on his stomach. Shui Xiangdong quickened his pace and didn't stay any longer. When he reached the bridge, the armed police soldiers looked at him: "You can't cross the bridge at night, it's too dangerous."

Shui Xiangdong said, "My friend is sick, so I have to send him to see a doctor."

The armed policeman looked at Ni Hui on his back, thought for a while, and then said: "Go, be careful, I will shine a searchlight for you here, don't go too fast, go slowly."

"Okay, thank you!" Shui Xiangdong talked to Ni Hui, "Ni Hui, are you up?"

Ni Hui grunted: "No." But it was true that he was getting more and more uncomfortable, and it was very difficult to breathe.

Shui Xiangdong's words caught Ni Hui's attention: "Look at this bridge, it's a cable suspension bridge. The bottom of the bridge is made of wood, and you can drive over it. Only one car can pass at a time."

Ni Hui took a look at the bridge below. Walking eastward, the water did feel a little wobbly on it, like a cradle: "I want to get down and walk."

Shui Xiangdong lifted him up: "Forget it, let's go there quickly. Basang must be waiting there."

As expected, Basang was looking forward to it over there. He was very surprised when he saw Shui Xiangdong with his back on his back, "Is it really found?"

Shui Xiangdong nodded happily: "Well, it's really a coincidence. Basang, he's sick, I think I'll go back to Bayi at night, is that okay?"

"Okay, get in the car, I'll drive slowly." Basang knew that for those who entered Tibet for the first time, a cold would be a big problem, and they should not be ignored.Although the road condition from Tongmai to Bayi is very steep, especially the section from Tongmai Bridge to Pailong is the most famous Pailong natural barrier on the Yunnan-Tibet line. On one side is the Palong Zangbo River. If there is a slight mistake, there will be no bones left, but Basang gritted his teeth and nodded in agreement.

Shui Xiangdong put Ni Hui on the back seat of the car, climbed up himself, gave Ni Hui an oxygen bag, and asked him to breathe slowly by his nose.Basang had already reversed the car and turned his head: "You are really lucky, the Buddha's blessing is with you."

Shui Xiangdong also sighed: "Yes, thank you Buddha."

Ni Hui glanced at Shui Xiangdong, he didn't believe in Buddhism, so it had nothing to do with Buddha.

Shui Xiangdong said: "Ni Hui, you lie down and sleep, pillow on my lap, sleep more comfortably."

Ni Hui looked at him, and after a while, he took off his coat and lay down, covered his stomach with the clothes, rested his head on Shui Xiangdong's lap, Shui Xiangdong took out the spare blanket in the car, and covered him carefully On Ni Hui.Ni Hui hadn't slept well for several days, and he was always worried. At this moment, he was finally relieved, closed his eyes and fell asleep quickly.

Basang was driving the car, and he didn’t dare to sleep when the water was facing east. He had to talk to Basang, otherwise he would get tired easily driving alone at night. It was really dangerous in places like the Yunnan-Tibet line.Fortunately, Basang is an extremely experienced old driver. I don’t know how many times he has traveled back and forth on the Yunnan-Tibet line. According to him, even the road conditions like Medog can be freely entered and exited. This road is much better.

Shui Xiangdong believes in the level of Basang. Although the gravel road and asphalt road are full of potholes, Basang's car is still driving very stably. Of course, the performance of the car is also a factor.There were no other cars on the whole road, and Basang slowly moved the car out of the Pailong natural barrier. Only Basang knew how dangerous this section was, and his vest was soaked.

After passing the natural danger of Pailong, the road conditions finally improved and became asphalt roads. Basang heaved a sigh of relief, and his tone of voice became more relaxed. Shui Xiangdong passed this section during the day, so he naturally knew how dangerous the road conditions were, so he couldn't help but I am also very fortunate to celebrate with Basang.

Shui Xiangdong observed Ni Hui's condition along the way, touching Ni Hui's forehead from time to time to check if he had a fever.Ni Hui slept deeply and was rarely obedient, but Shui Xiangdong heard that his breathing was gradually getting heavy. He held an oxygen bag to breathe for Ni Hui. He must be feeling very uncomfortable at this moment.Shui Xiangdong was very anxious and wanted the car to go faster, but he didn't dare to rush. Driving at night, especially on the Yunnan-Tibet line, would cause problems if he was impatient, so he couldn't interfere with Basang.

Basang has been driving steadily all the time. Although the whole journey is only 90 kilometers, it was almost midnight by the time of August [-]st.Basang drove the car to the hospital, carried him eastward, and the doctor on duty checked Ni Hui, and rushed him to the hospital for oxygen and fluid infusion.

Shui Xiangdong sat outside the emergency room and waited. Basang comforted him: "Don't worry, everything should be fine. Pray to the Buddha, good people will have a safe life."

Shui Xiangdong clasped his hands together and prayed like Basang: as long as Ni Hui can get through this test safely, he is willing to do anything.Shui Xiangdong asked Basang: "Basang, what is the most sincere way you Tibetans pray to the Buddha?"

Basang said: "Recite the six-character mantra, kowtow to the head, and turn the mani prayer wheel."

Shui Xiangdong said, "How do you kowtow to the long head?"

Basang said: "Did you see those Tibetans on the road today? They walked three steps and kowtowed on the ground. That is a long kowtow."

Shui Xiangdong thought of the Tibetans who went on a pilgrimage to Lhasa during the day and kowtowed to the ground, and understood.

Shui Xiangdong said, "Is there any point in kowtowing?"

Basang said: "Be sincere, have no distracting thoughts, and be calm, so that you can keep the person you pray safe and healthy."

"Does the frequency matter?"

Basang said: "Of course, the more the better. If you go to the Jokhang Temple in Lhasa, the stone slabs in front of the gate are full of deep marks left by believers kowtow. We believers in Buddhism have to kowtow at least [-] kowtows in our lives. a long head."

The water is full of black lines to the east, one hundred thousand, how long will it take.

Basang laughed: "You are not a believer. If you want to pray for blessings and fulfill your vows, knocking down a thousand is already very sincere."

Water nodded to the east.

After Ni Hui was sent to the ward, Shui Xiangdong didn't go to sleep. He sat beside him and watched him drip by drop. Ni Hui had an oxygen tube inserted, his brows were frowning, and he slept very restlessly.

Basang said: "Xiao Shui, you should sleep for a while, he will wake up tomorrow morning. You can't stay up, if you get sick, you will be very serious."

Shui Xiangdong looked at Ni Hui, nodded, and then climbed onto the empty bed beside him to lie down. There were few people here, and there were not many people in the hospital, but there were quite a few empty beds.

Shui Xiangdong waited until Ni Hui's drip was finished before going to bed.

The next morning, Ni Hui woke up, opened his eyes, and saw Shui Xiangdong sleeping on the bed next to him. The thin morning light on the plateau shone on Shui Xiangdong's face. His face disappeared, and his brows were tightly frowned, as if he was very worried.He knew what he was worried about. For the sake of seeing him so caring, treat him better in the future.
