Gao Shan could tell that Wu De'an really didn't know how to ask for help. When he said these words, everyone could see his embarrassed look.
"Captain Wu, you are too polite to say that. If you have anything to do, please tell me." Gao Shan returned very politely.
The reason for being polite is not because of Wu De'an's identity, but because of his respect after witnessing Wu De'an charging on the front line.
When Wu De'an heard what Gao Shan said, he relaxed a lot. Then he said: "Doctor Gao, I have seen your medical skills with my own eyes. I have an old chief. He was a person who participated in the war with India. During the war,
I'm injured. Naturally, I have a lot of injuries... So, Dr. Gao, see if you can help me with this. If you are free one day, help me check it out."
Old chief? That's a senior official? Gao Shan was also a little surprised. Judging from the time, he was at least seventy or even eighty years old. For this kind of person, regardless of whether he is an official or not, Gao Shan respects him.
. After thinking about it for a moment, Gao Shan nodded and said: "In this case, there won't be many people today anyway. Then it's better to choose a different day. How about today? But..."
Gao Shan paused for a moment and said, "Don't go. You arrange for someone you know well, and then you call your old chief in advance. I'll just go directly."
"This... how embarrassing is this." Wu De'an was a little excited, even a little excited. He felt a little at a loss. He nodded happily and said: "Doctor Gao, not only are you great at medical skills, but your medical ethics are also impeccable. I want to thank you first.
"
Then, Wu De'an immediately said: "Wang Chong, come here."
As soon as the voice fell, the young man next to him who was giving Wu De'an medicine came over immediately: "Team Wu."
Wu De'an ordered: "You have a day off today and take Doctor Gao to Mr. Liu's place."
…
Instead of driving a police car, Gaoshan's car was dispatched. Under Wang Chong's guidance, the car quickly drove out of Donghe City and headed directly towards the countryside.
Gao Shan was a little surprised. Don't most senior officials live in scenic spots like sanatoriums? Why did they come to the countryside? He then asked out of curiosity: "Officer Wang, does the old leader of Team Wu live in the countryside?"
Wang Chong then smiled and said: "Doctor Gao, don't be so polite. Just call me Wang Chong."
Speaking of this, Wang Chong smiled bitterly and said: "Who says it's not the case? Mr. Liu is also a strange man. He served as a soldier in 1959, and then went to the battlefield just after getting married. He has scars all over his body. Later, he traveled from the border to Dingnan,
If you reach the position of being the boss of the Dingnan Military Region, you will be retired as a serious major general."
As he spoke, Wang Chong's face also showed a look of surprise and shock, and he said slowly: "This is the first time I have seen such a person in so many years. I did not enjoy the good treatment of a general and returned to my hometown.
.”
"Don't you care about Mr. Liu's children?" Gao Shan asked curiously.
"Child?" Wang Chong smiled bitterly and said, "Mr. Liu was injured during the war. The old couple never had any children. After the old lady passed away two years ago, Captain Wu always wanted to bring the old man to live in the city. But
The old man scolded me right back. This old man is a very stubborn person."
As Wang Chong spoke eloquently, Gaoshan suddenly felt like he was looking up to a high mountain. That kind of admiration can no longer be described in words.
Unknowingly, the car has stopped in front of Mr. Liu's house. In an environment surrounded by mountains and rivers, there is a three-room red brick building with a small yard. Behind the house are several ridges of vegetable fields. The mountains can be seen at a glance.
I saw an old man dragging his slightly stooped body slowly walking in the vegetable field.
According to Wang Chong, Mr. Liu joined the army in 1959. Even if he joined the army at the age of sixteen, he is still seventy-five years old now.
But the old man in front of him, who was wearing a thick military coat, a melon-skin cap, an unkempt beard, and a slight mobility problem, looked no different from an ordinary old country farmer. If you didn't know this, it would be hard to believe that this was the man who had been set.
The boss of the Southern Provincial Military Region. This will be a dignified major general!
Seeing the car approaching, after a while, Mr. Liu walked out of the house with two bags of cabbage. Seeing Wang Chong, Mr. Liu showed a smile on his face. Under his dark face, except for the occasional flash of light in his eyes,
His brilliance and momentum are no different from those of old farmers in the countryside.
"Here comes Chongzi? Why didn't that boy from De'an come? I was just thinking, these vegetables after heavy snow are the most delicious. You're here just in time, take some back later. There's nothing like this in the city.
Let’s buy vegetables.” Mr. Liu started talking nonchalantly.
Wang Chong said with a smile: "Old man, please stop working. Captain Wu specially invited an expert to treat you this time. Dr. Gao has superb medical skills. With him here, those shrapnels and other things in your body,
It won't be a problem anymore. If your health is good, you can live for several decades more."
"Nonsense!" Mr. Liu laughed and scolded, his beard trembling: "Didn't he become an old goblin? Besides, if a useless person like me lives for a long time, it will be a disaster. It's better not to increase the burden on the country."
Speaking of this, Mr. Liu waved his hand and said directly: "My disease is an old problem. What else should I look at? Military hospitals, experts in the province, and masters in the capital have all looked at it. What use can it be?
I have been here for more than fifty years. It has fused into one body and grown into my flesh. When I die and burn, remember to bury it in the soil with me."
Gao Shan was a little shocked when he heard these words. He looked down upon life and death. This is the real veteran. This is the immortal spirit of the veteran. Putting aside Mr. Liu's glorious and prominent status, just with his magnanimity, this man is worth it.
Respect.
Gao Shan smiled and said: "Mr. Liu, I am a Chinese medicine doctor. Since I am here, I can't come in vain. Being entrusted by others is a matter of loyalty. Since I promised Captain Wu, you have to let me deal with it no matter what.
.”
Mr. Liu followed the words and looked at Gao Shan. Then he laughed and said: "I like to hear what Dr. Gao said. He doesn't brag. He's not like those experts and masters. He's so arrogant before he even reads it. It seems casual.
It can be taken out. What's the result? It's in my body and no one can take it away."
Although he said this, Mr. Liu also turned around and walked into the room: "Chongzi, Dr. Gao, come in and sit down."
The decoration inside the house is also very simple and simple. An old-fashioned wooden bed. Army green bedding and clothing are neatly arranged. The quilt is as neat as tofu blocks. This is the self-requirement of a veteran.
There was a wooden Eight Immortals table and a long wooden stool. After sitting down, Gao Shan began to diagnose his pulse. After checking, Gao Shan's brows also wrinkled. Mr. Liu's body was not as simple as it seemed. To put it bluntly, it was
It is a manifestation of being strong on the outside but strong on the inside. Even though Mr. Liu is still stooped and can go to the fields to grow vegetables, Mr. Liu's life will be in danger at any time if there is even the slightest external trigger.
Moreover, as Mr. Liu said himself, these shrapnel have been living with him for more than fifty years. After such a long time, these foreign objects have become integrated with his body and cannot be separated at all.
Mr. Liu also saw Gao Shan's expression and laughed and said: "Doctor Gao, is my health hopeless?"
