It was originally agreed that Chen Tiezhu would accompany Shen Tianfeng that night, but after Shen Tianlong sent Shen Tianfang and Yang Hai'e back to school, he was still a little worried, so he rode his bicycle back to the hospital.【】
As soon as he parked his bicycle in the hospital, Shen Tianlong saw a figure squatting at the door of the hospital, holding his head in his hands, his shoulders shaking, and his body shivering in the cold wind. This man felt indescribably lonely and desolate.
Shen Tianlong took a closer look, wasn't this Shang Wenquan? Shang Wenquan had injuries on his stomach and head, and was also hospitalized in the city hospital. Why did he come out so late when he no longer stayed in the ward?
"Brother Shang, you didn't know you were injured? Why are you staying outside? Come inside quickly."
As Shen Tianlong said this, he stretched out his hand to pull Shang Wenquan.
Shang Wenquan heard Shen Tianlong's words, but did not speak. He still squatted on the ground with his head in his hands.
It took a lot of effort for Shen Tianlong to pull Shang Wenquan up. Looking at Shang Wenquan's appearance, Shen Tianlong was shocked.
In the night, Shang Wenquan burst into tears. For a grown man, he cried so much that his nose ran out.
"Brother Shang, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying? Does it hurt?"
Looking at Shang Wenquan, Shen Tianlong didn't know what to say, so he had no choice but to joke with Shang Wenquan.
After hearing Shen Tianlong's joke, Shang Wenquan smiled at Shen Tianlong. But his smile was like Cui Yongyuan, uglier than crying, and there was indescribable bitterness in his smile...
After Shang Wenquan smiled at Shen Tianlong, he suddenly raised his hand and started to slap his own mouth.
"Tianlong, I'm useless. Zhu Zhu asked me to go home early to take care of my sister-in-law, but I failed to protect her."
Shang Wenquan slapped himself one after another, talking and crying while slapping, heartbroken. His cheeks soon became red and swollen.
Chen Tiezhu trusted him so much, but he failed to protect Shen Tianfeng. Shang Wenquan felt really aggrieved and panicked. He felt that he had failed his friend's trust, and he fell into deep self-blame.
Shen Tianlong quickly hugged Shang Wenquan's arms to prevent him from continuing to harm himself.
Shang Wenquan's arms were captured and he couldn't continue to beat himself, but suddenly he threw himself into Shen Tianlong's arms and burst into tears.
"Tianlong, I'm not a man. If Yang Hai'e hadn't been there, Tianfeng might have died. It's all useless to me! I'm just a coward! I can't even compare to a little girl..."
Nang Wenquan cried so hard that his heart was broken! Nang Wenquan cried so hard that his heart was broken!
Shang Wenquan's series of actions stunned Shen Tianlong...
Shen Tianlong was not stunned in surprise, he was stunned in emotion. He did not expect that this incident would bring such harm to Shang Wenquan.
Is Naofumi Kwon crying because he is a coward? No, absolutely not.
He is crying because "only close friends can depend on each other forever"
He was crying because "we need to know each other to make friends, why should flesh and blood be kissed"
He was crying for "an ancient sword for liver and gallbladder, and two duckweeds for waves"
He is crying because he has failed his friend!
Shang Wenquan cried loudly regardless of his image, which made Shen Tianlong feel helpless.
Holding Shang Wenquan in his arms, Shen Tianlong was stunned for a long time, and finally stretched out his hand and patted Shang Wenquan's back gently, and said with a smile: "Brother Shang, you are just messing with this, come on, come on, Sit down and I will enlighten you!"
As he spoke, Shen Tianlong couldn't help but pull Shang Wenquan and sit on the steps of the hospital.
"Brother Shang, do you still remember the first time we met at the grain store?"
Shen Tianlong did not mention the tragedy of Chen Tiezhu's family at all, nor did he pay attention to Shang Wenquan's self-blame. Instead, he chatted with Shang Wenquan.
"Remember, you had a fight with Li Xiulei and the others at that time. I still want to learn kung fu from you," Shang Wenquan said while sobbing, feeling a little pity for me.
"Haha, do you still remember that you stretched your neck on that flowered sweater's knife and frightened that flowered sweater so much?"
"Haha" Shang Wenquan laughed dryly and said nothing.
"Did my brother-in-law and his son-in-law be so good at the mine that no one dared to mess with them?"
"kindness"
"But were they finally conquered by you?"
"Uh..." Shang Wenquan originally wanted to refute, but what Shen Tianlong said was indeed the truth. In desperation, he had to add: "...But I also received a lot of beatings!"
"Well, you received a lot of beatings. I heard that my brother-in-law almost stoned you to death?"
"Well, that's what happened!"
"When the stone was lifted to your head, were you afraid?" Shen Tianlong asked again
"I'm not afraid!"
"By the way, you are not afraid of death, are you a coward? If you were a coward, then there would be no heroes in this world!" Shen Tianlong suddenly raised his voice and said loudly
“………….”
After hearing Shen Tianlong's words, Shang Wenquan was stunned. Over the years, some people said he was just, some said he was a pervert, and some even said he was a swindler. This was the first time he heard someone call himself a hero.
"Brother Shang, let me ask you, if you were born during the Anti-Japanese War, and the Japanese captured you and asked you to betray your comrades, and if you didn't tell them, they would kill you, would you say it or not?" Shen Tianlong continued.
"Of course I won't tell!"
"Then you are Liu Hulan!"
“………….”
"Brother Shang, let me ask you again, if you and your comrades go on a mission on the battlefield, but your body is on fire. If you move, your comrades will be exposed. If you don't move, you will be burned to death. What should you do? ?”
"I'd rather be burned to death!"
"Then you are Qiu Shaoyun!" Shen Tianlong patted Shang Wenquan and looked into Shang Wenquan's eyes with righteousness.
"...Am I so awesome?" Shang Wenquan was completely attracted by Shen Tianlong's words and stopped crying.
"Of course, back then, if Qiu Shaoyun had fought with a bayonet, he might have been stabbed to death by an American soldier. It can be seen that it is not a shame to be defeated by others. As long as you have courage and belief, even if you are killed by the opponent, you are still a hero!"
Shen Tianlong looked upright and deceived Shang Wenquan.
"Hey... But I have fought a lot, but I have never won, so why?" Shang Wenquan is still a little doubtful about being a hero.
"Haha, Brother Shang, you can't beat others, not because you are not brave, nor because you are a coward, but because you are kind!"
Shen Tianlong spoke very firmly, word for word.
"Am I kind?" Although Shang Wenquan felt that what Shen Tianlong said before was very reasonable, he couldn't understand this sentence and he was a little confused.
"Yes, it's kindness!" Shen Tianlong nodded affirmatively and continued: "It is precisely because you are kind that you are unwilling to hurt others. It is precisely because you have kind thoughts that you would rather be beaten by others than You don't want to be cruel to others, so you can't beat others."
"But your kindness cannot cover up your bravery, nor can it cover up your justice. Liu Hulan was killed by the Japanese without killing any Japanese. Can you say that she is not brave? Can you say that she is not a hero? ?”
Shen Tianlong began to rise again.
"As long as you have the spirit of seeing death as home, as long as you have the courage to die generously, even if you are killed by the enemy, you will give the enemy a severe blow mentally!"
"So you are definitely a hero!"
“………….”
"My brother-in-law and the others may look awesome, but in fact they are just cowards. It is precisely because they are afraid of being beaten that they fight very hard. They do this to cover up their inner cowardice..."
"You mean, I'm better than Zhu Zhu, Da Huizi and the others?"
Shen Tianlong's words completely reversed Shang Wenquan's world view, and Shang Wenquan was now in a mess.
………
The night was as cold as water and the wind was as cold as a knife. Shang Wenquan and Shen Tianlong sat on the steps in front of the hospital and talked for two hours.
"Tianlong, thank you. I won't blame myself for this anymore, but you still have to work hard for me."
"You are right, sheep cannot deal with ferocious lions, but elephants are not afraid of lions. I want to be a kind elephant!"
Shang Wenquan has completely untied the knot in his heart. Now he is full of excitement and high in fighting spirit!
"Yeah, kind elephant."
Shen Tianlong repeated Shang Wenquan's words and got goosebumps all over his body...【】
