Mr. Chu and his wife are well-dressed, warm to others, and very talkative.
After the train started, Mr. Chu and his wife talked about this trip to Nan'an. The two of them were out for fun. Due to some geriatric diseases such as high blood pressure, they were unable to fly, so they chose to take the train.
And that Xiao Lin was also the nurse who accompanied them. Chu Bai also guessed that he should be a security guard. After all, Xiao Lin had the ability to practice Qi.
"Xiao Chu, what are you reading?" Mr. Chu chatted with his wife for a long time, but found that Chu Bai did not interrupt, so he took the initiative to ask.
"Modern History!" Chu Bai's modern history was bought for him by Chen Pingping. Because Chu Bai was practicing in Shanmen, he was not familiar with most of the modern historical events, and his master did not teach him this.
"Modern history?" Mr. Chu raised his eyebrows: "The young man is very good. Young people nowadays like to play games, chat on mobile phones, and read online novels. Very few capable people can read some formal textbooks."
Hearing Mr. Chu's words, Chu Bai smiled and said, "I'm bored now, so I opened it and took a look."
"Haha, I forgot to ask you, are you still a student?" Mr. Chu asked with a smile.
"No." Chu Bai shook his head.
"Then are you going to the capital to find a job or to visit relatives and friends?"
"I'm looking for my relatives." When Chu Bai said this, he suddenly paused, because he remembered that his master said that he should be from the capital, but he didn't know the surname of his relatives, because his
The surname Chu is taken from the master's surname.
The master's surname is Chu, and the second master's surname is Bai, so they were named Chu Bai.
"Oh? Do you have any relatives in the capital? Do you need my help?" Mr. Chu said enthusiastically.
Chu Bai shook his head: "No, thank you, Uncle Chu."
"Well, can you play chess?" Mr. Chu asked again.
"I know a little bit."
"Then let's play a game?" Mr. Chu took out the chess from the bag with great interest and asked.
"Old man, why don't you play a game with me?" Xiao Lin, who was sitting on the upper bunk, said eagerly.
"You'd better calm down for a while, come on, come on, Xiao Chu will come down and play a game with the old man!" Mr. Chu waved to Chu Bai.
"Okay, I haven't played chess for a long time!" Chu Bai jumped down with a smile. When he was at the mountain gate, he learned a lot of things, including piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. In the mountain gate, he had to talk about these miscellaneous things.
In terms of skills, no one is his opponent.
The two got into position, and Chu Bai laughed and said that the young should respect the elders, so he let Mr. Chu go first, but Mr. Chu was not polite and immediately jumped out of the game.
Chu Bai's chess skills were studied by himself, but there are also many chess records in Tianji Sect, and chess is the crystallization of the wisdom of ancient people and has a long history. The most important thing is that chess also contains Taoist formations.
The modern chess board evolved from the Nine Palaces and Bagua, with nine horizontal grids and eight vertical grids. Each grid contains life and death.
When playing against Chu Laochu, Chu Bai was ordinary. Xiao Lin also jumped out of bed and watched the game with interest, thinking that Chu Bai's chess skills were not as good as Chu Laochu. However, when Chu Bai captured one of Chu Bai's pawns, one
After the horse vaulting, the chess game suddenly changed. Mr. Chu discovered that Chu Bai's rooks and cannons were already hunting his own leader. If he made one more move, he would be defeated!
"Why didn't I see this?" Mr. Chu had a weird look on his face. He tried to take a few steps, but found that no matter how he walked, the coach would be killed by cannons or cars, and there was nowhere to hide!
"Haha, old man, you lost, you actually lost!" Xiao Lin burst out laughing, as if it was the first time he saw Mr. Chu lose chess.
"It doesn't count. This game doesn't count. I made a mistake. Let's play another game!" Mr. Chu acted dishonestly and had no chess ethics.
Chu Bai also smiled and played another game.
However, as soon as the second game started, Chu Bai killed every step of the way, not even trying to defend the commander in the rear. He only used eleven moves to checkmate Mr. Chu's commander again!
"Good guy." Mr. Chu took a deep breath, looked at Chu Bai strangely and said, "Xiao Chu, your chess skills are rare. Although my chess skills are not very good, some old guys are no match for me.
Yes, I didn’t expect that I would lose so easily here. It seems that the masters are really among the people!"
"Uncle Chu is overly praised." Chu Bai smiled and shook his head, without explaining anything. In fact, Mr. Chu's chess skills are really bad, and the two of them are not at the same level.
"What about Go? Can you do it?" Mr. Chu asked again.
Chu Bai scratched his head: "I know a little bit!"
"Haha, honey, it seems that Master Chu is not showing his face. Do you want to play a few games with him?" Old Chu looked at Mrs. Chu and asked.
"Okay, I have nothing to do, so I will play two games with Xiao Chu." Mrs. Chu took out another Go chess piece from her bag. It seems that one of the elderly couple likes chess and the other likes Go.
The hobbies are the same.
Mr. Chu immediately gave up his seat, and Xiao Lin also poured a glass of water for the old lady, Mr. Chu, and even Chu Bai.
Half an hour later, the old lady angrily put the Go game into her bag, glared at Chu Bai and said, "You kid, can't you let me, this old lady, do it?"
"Haha, master, Xiao Chu is a master. Honey, I remember the last time you played against Lao Gao, didn't you lose after the fifty-eighth move? Xiao Chu is a master. That's great. When we get to the capital, we will
Call Lao Gao and Lao Zhu over, I’ll let Chu Bai kill them all, huh!”
"That's right, Xiao Chu, you must help my aunt. There is an old man named Gao who always bullies my aunt because he is good at Go. And your uncle Chu is always laughed at by an old man named Zhu. You
When you get to the capital, you must come to our house as a guest, and then help us vent our anger, otherwise aunt will be angry, who told you to bully aunt too?" Although the old lady is old, her childlike innocence has not been lost, like an old child.
"Okay, listen to Auntie, help Auntie vent her anger!" Chu Bai laughed, this old couple is really a pair of treasures.
At this moment, Xiao Lin's phone rang, interrupting the laughter of several people, and Mr. Chu also looked at Xiao Lin with interest.
Xiao Lin took out his cell phone, glanced at the caller ID and smiled: "Old man, this is Commander Chu's phone number."
"I'll pick it up. This kid is always worried." When Mrs. Chu heard that it was her son's call, she immediately grabbed the phone, pressed the answer button and said, "Second brother, your dad and I still have a few hours.
Just arrived in the capital."
"Mom, something happened!" Suddenly, a choked voice came from Chu Lao Er on the phone: "Mom, Ah Rong is dying!"
"What?" The old lady was startled, her whole body trembled, and said, "Aron is dying?"
"Well, I'm in the intensive care unit of the hospital. The doctor said I'm afraid I won't survive tonight!" Chu Laoer cried while talking: "Mom, I'm sorry for Ah Rong, I'm sorry for her, mother."
Whenever a son has a grievance, no matter how old he is, he will tell his mother. Chu Lao Er obviously wants to cry in front of the old lady.
"Son, don't cry. Mom will be home soon. Mom and your dad will be back soon. Don't cry. Please hold on, Ah Rong. Your dad and I will go back to see her for the last time!"
"Mother." Chu Laoer seemed to cry loudly. The cry of this man with a rough voice was very scary. Chu Bai heard it so harshly that it felt a little scary.
After a long time, the old lady hung up the phone, glanced at Mr. Chu and said: "Old man, the second daughter-in-law is not alive anymore, she is in 301, that is tonight!" As the old lady spoke, she also wiped the towel.
Tears!
"Alas!" Mr. Chu sighed and hugged his wife's shoulders. The two of them were laughing just now, but after a phone call, they all looked sad, and after being happy, they were filled with sadness!
Xiao Lin didn't dare to say anything anymore, he just sat motionless on the corner of the bed, and Chu Bai didn't move either. This was not the time to chat or have a tooth ceremony.
The train continued to move forward. Ten hours later, it was already nine o'clock in the night. The old man and the old lady ate the food in their own food boxes under Xiao Lin's persuasion, but they didn't eat much.
Chu Bai just ate an apple, which the old lady gave him.
"Uncle, aunt, what disease does your daughter-in-law have?" Chu Bai suddenly asked as the train was about to enter Beijing.
"Ah Rong, this child, has a hard life. She suffers from a heart disease. It has been twenty years and she finally can't stand it any longer!" the old lady answered her question.
Chu Bai frowned, what is considered heart disease?
At this time, Mr. Chu sighed softly to Chu Bai and said: "One of Ah Rong's children has been sick since it was stolen twenty years ago. It has always been heartache for so many years, especially in the past few years.
In the 1990s, her health was getting worse and worse, and she could only rely on medicine to maintain her health. She just wanted to have children."
"What?" Suddenly, Chu Bai's hands shrunk in his sleeves began to tremble. Wasn't he the one who was stolen by the master twenty years ago?
"No more, no more, young man, please leave a phone number. When our affairs here are over, we will invite you to our house as a guest." Mr. Chu waved his hand, obviously not wanting to mention it more.
"Uncle Chu, I am still a doctor. If you can trust me, I want to see my aunt!" Chu Bai suppressed the violent beating in his heart. Although he thought it was impossible to be such a coincidence, sometimes God's will will do it.
People will arrange the destiny of your life.
"Are you still a doctor?" The old lady, Xiao Lin and Mr. Chu looked at Chu Bai in surprise at the same time. This young man who is only twenty years old is still a doctor?
"Well, my master is an old Chinese medicine doctor. My master and I have learned some skills of Chinese medicine in treating diseases." Chu Bai nodded.
"Okay, young man, if you are interested, let's go and have a look together." Mr. Chu praised him repeatedly. Although this young man is young, he is very skilled in chess. He might actually be able to see a doctor. Moreover, it is not easy to refuse the young man's kindness.
.
The train finally stopped at Beijing West Railway Station at midnight. When Chu Bai helped the old lady and Xiao Lin helped Old Chu out, a military off-road vehicle also parked on the platform and went straight into the station to pick them up.
people.
"Chief, please get in the car." The driver is a soldier with the rank of captain.
"How is your second daughter-in-law?" The old lady grabbed the driver's arm anxiously when she saw him.
The driver took a deep breath and said, "I was still unconscious when I came here."
"Let's go to the hospital quickly!" Mr. Chu and the old lady strode into the car.
