Chapter 46 Recuperation

46.

Gu Sheng was too cruel.

Jiang Cheng himself has seen many people, perhaps together with himself, no matter how much preparation he has made before going into battle, and how much hatred he has for the enemy, when it comes time to strike, he is always more or less timid in his heart, and even wants to Drop everything and turn around.

Especially when the mind is clear and the adrenaline has not fully controlled the behavior of the person.There is nothing to blame for this avoidance, it is simply human nature.

But Gu Sheng didn't.

From the beginning to the end, whether it is the shooting action or the emotional state, everything is precise, cold and ruthless.

It's like he never had any nostalgia for Jiang Cheng from the beginning to the end.Not to mention to other people.

In Gu Sheng's eyes, they are probably not human beings with flesh and blood, but things like moving targets in a shooting range. They are moving dead people, symbolizing absolute hegemony and inhuman bullying. Destroying them is history after all. aspirations of the people.

Jiang Cheng never regarded Gu Sheng as a "person" from the beginning—a person like him, Gu Sheng is just a shining decoration he likes, he can play with it if he wants it, and if he doesn't want it Just throw it away; and he never thought that, as far as Gu Sheng is concerned, he and his family have never been human.

Their death is not death as a human being.

But Jiang Cheng couldn't think of this, or he thought of it, but he couldn't admit it.He always carefully thought that Gu Sheng was always different from others, and they had been together for a year—this time was really not short for someone like him or Song Zhao, and they had experienced life and death together. Calamity, although he... Although he was not very kind to Gu Sheng at the beginning, he has changed a lot since then, not to mention, it is true that he likes Gu Sheng so much that he is willing to give his life.

He felt that he had a reason to occupy a special place in Gu Sheng's heart, and Gu Sheng shattered his boring fantasy with merciless gunshots.

This made him feel even more unacceptable than Gu Sheng staying by his side for revenge.

His complex and contradictory feelings towards Gu Sheng, apart from the deep-rooted desire to be heartbroken, on the one hand, he was able to understand and understand Gu Sheng's motives so deeply, and on the other hand, it was his understanding of Gu Sheng. , which in itself is a betrayal of everything in his own past.

He grew up in a family of warlords and bandits, and he has been branded with that class since he was born.Jiang Zhiya, Song Shuzhen, and Jiang Xu, these three were the most important components of his boyhood. Although he was born with a rebellious personality and didn't like others criticizing him, and especially hated his aunt's preference for him and his elder brother, it is undeniable that The source and enrichment of his understanding of this world come from these high-ranking people.

He didn't have much affection for Jiang's family, and Jiang Zhiya's words were good when he was about to die, and a file from that year can prove that they died unjustly.For personal reasons, Jiang Cheng could really forgive Gu Sheng willingly, but for other reasons, he couldn't.

——His and Gu Sheng's positions are fundamentally different.

Apart from himself, Jiang Cheng has too many things involved in him. He bears the interests of his class. He can ignore right and wrong and directly smear Gu Sheng as a foreign spy. He is fully capable of hijacking public opinion, but Jiang Cheng did not do so. It's not just that he has no time to take care of other affairs, and it's not just that he deeply likes that person so far.

It was the young man named Gu Sheng who came here with cold determination, ruthlessly shattering all his inherent cognition, like a sharp knife piercing the hazy window paper in front of him, and the devastated world instantly appeared in front of him.

He was terrified, he avoided, he was in pain, and he could no longer be ignorant.

When Jiang Cheng was sitting in his father's study with a brochure in his mind, he accidentally wondered whether Gu Sheng, more than seven years ago, was as helpless as he is now. Torment fills the soul.

Gu Sheng just fainted when he arrived in Jiangnan. Old Zhao, who was squatting nearby, found out that the person had been quiet since he entered. He rushed in and reported to Jiang Cheng.

The day after his telegram was sent, Jiang Cheng parachuted into Jiangnan by special plane.

At that time, Gu Sheng was laying flat on the bed unconsciously, and Lao Zhao didn't dare to do anything wrong, so he only used the quilt to surround him.

After Jiang Cheng ordered him to run some errands, he stayed alone in the house. The yard is a common wooden structure in the south of the Yangtze River, with a window facing south. There is an old and dusty desk in front of the window, and two bookcases and a wardrobe next to it.Maybe Old Zhao didn't have time to sit on the chair, dust was still flying all over the place after dusting it for a long time, Jiang Cheng was subconsciously afraid that the dust would make another person in the room uncomfortable, so he hurriedly turned his head to look.

The person on the opposite bed didn't respond, but there was still cold sweat on his forehead, his brows were furrowed, and he seemed very uncomfortable.Old Zhao took off the jacket he was wearing and put it aside, revealing a section of Bai Shengsheng's neck.

Jiang Cheng walked up in a strange way, and when he came back to his senses, one hand was already vainly on top.

... As long as he pushes lightly, all the past, all love and hatred will be over.

As long as he presses his finger up now.

Gu Sheng looked extremely tired, his slightly curled eyelashes were wet with cold sweat, and his cheeks were a little thin and sunken.He seemed different from the one he saw in Jinzhou a few days ago, although he was still surprisingly beautiful.

Jiang Cheng leaned over to look at him, the sadness and depression in his eyes seemed to be dripping onto the young man's neck, he stared at him deeply, his right hand slightly supported the back of the young man's neck with trembling, under his eyes A light kiss on the eyelashes.

Guilt and regret swept across the sky, dragging him into the vortex of eternal doom.

It's just that Gu Sheng closed his eyes and fell into the depths of his consciousness, ignorant of everything that happened in this silence.

Jiang Cheng couldn't stay in Yingzhou for a long time, he took the huge risk of being punished by the three families of Shen, Song and Ye, and Gu Sheng's hiding place to go to Jiangnan. state.

Shen Wenchang's widow in Guannan has been putting pressure on him. After Song Zhao and Miss Shen San disappeared, Shen Yao, who had already taken over Shen Wenchang's class, and his uncles all stared at Jiang's family, but Feng Zheng's matter was fine. It caused too much disturbance. After all, the underworld tycoon in Shanghai was still a bit inferior to this gang of warlords. Jiang Cheng sent someone to appease him.

Jiang Cheng was in a state of desperation, the rivers and mountains were in turmoil, and he was the only one who could restrain this group of tigers and wolves here.

But he couldn't find Gu Sheng after killing him, and he didn't push the matter to Song Zhao who had fled abroad. He did this with a very subtle psychology. In his own hands, the momentum of the Shen and Song families has also slightly weakened, but Jiang Cheng knew that this only meant that they had turned around and used their own power to investigate secretly, so he did not dare to take it lightly.

Compared to Jiang Cheng's smoking and meetings in Jinzhou to clean up the traitors, Gu Sheng in Yingzhou, Jiangnan, seemed much more at ease.

At the end of January, his physical strength recovered a little, and he went to the Chinese medicine clinic with Yang Xian to have a re-examination. The old Chinese doctor looked up at him from behind the glasses and suggested that he go to a Western doctor, but Gu Sheng declined because he didn't trust Western medicine. The Chinese medicine doctor didn't insist any more, and re-prepared the medicine for him to go back.

Most of the time, Gu Sheng stayed alone, because of his illness, he didn't get up as early as before, and he didn't go out.In the morning, I lit the stove and soaked the traditional Chinese medicine on a simmer, then mopped the chairs to the yard to bask in the sun, and read one or two books brought over from Jinzhou.

He is still not in good spirits, the slightly warm sun in the late winter makes him comfortable, and he is also very lazy, often falling asleep while reading a book.The sun shines on his side face through the eaves, and his pointed chin is wrapped in a plain scarf. There is an indescribable sense of tranquility that he has not seen for a long time, which makes people extremely reluctant to break it.

Yang Xian came to see him occasionally, and he would sigh in his heart when he saw this scene, but no matter how lightly he moved, Gu Sheng would always wake up with a premonition when he approached, as if he would always just close his eyes and rest for a while. .

This day, Yang Xian was still asking about his health, and Gu Sheng also reported everything. When he confirmed that everything was improving and he was about to leave, Gu Sheng suddenly stopped him.

Yang Xian turned his head, and Gu Sheng took out a note from under a book on the table next to him, and handed it to him: "Is there a government-run library here in Yingzhou? Please help me find these bibliographies."

Yang Xian didn't understand, so he took a closer look at the note and raised his head dumbfounded: "What? 'Primary Number Theory', 'Basic Principles of Linear Algebra', 'Philosophical Logic'? What is this? Why are you reading this? Uh, I didn't say , You can’t understand this without a basis! Wouldn’t it be nice to borrow two novels to pass the time?”

Gu Sheng was noncommittal, and waved him away.

Yang Xian couldn't help it, so he found the book for him the next day. He had read Gu Sheng's own book before, and to be honest, not all of them could be read with just literacy and anecdotes, which actually made him understand Gu Sheng's past. Very curious, and the other party obviously didn't want to explain to him, so he could only keep silent.

Gu Sheng didn't light up extra lights at night, and fell asleep after flipping through the scriptures in the evening.

This kind of life is very peaceful and stable, and it is conducive to his recovery from sudden illness. What may be slightly problematic is his eating habits.

In the past, Gu Sheng used to be a bit out of touch with regard to food, clothing, housing and transportation. Before the age of 13, he was a favored child of a wealthy family in the south of the Yangtze River, and his food, clothing and expenses were taken care of by a special person, but this kind of life did not provide for him. Being spoiled, on the contrary, it caused him to be a little "indistinguishable" in life, and his expectations for material desires were lower than those of the born poor.

This may also be a kind of nature. When he was in exile in Jinzhou, he ate and lived with the poor. It was the same when he was in the theater troupe. Later, he was favored by Jiang Cheng. All these were arranged by Young Master Jiang alone. In short, he just didn’t need him. Take care of yourself.

He has no memory in this regard, and he has no appetite, no physical activities, and the habit of being in the troupe. He eats very badly. Less, often one meal a day cannot be guaranteed.

So he didn't cook at all, and when he felt hungry, he went to cook a bowl of noodles for himself, and even got some fruit to get rid of it.

Although he ate messily, these two months were considered the best period of rest for Gu Sheng in the past seven or eight years, and he gradually regained his energy. At noon, I went to Gu Sheng's condolences, and said that I brought a live fish to eat as a tooth sacrifice. When I went to the kitchen, I found that there was no trace of anyone having opened fire in the cold pot and cold stove.

Moreover, Gu Sheng was very straightforward, standing on the standpoint of the proletariat, he said that "eating only when you are hungry" is very feasible, and there are countless poor people who can't eat.

Yang Xian, a serious proletarian, was so choked by him that he couldn't speak, so he could only pull him into the kitchen from the perspective of a medical student, expressing that he would teach him to make the simplest food that a patient should eat.

Gu Sheng stood beside the smoky stove like a tender green onion, and lazily said to him: "I actually can't get these, you don't know, some things are just fancy but not useful."

When he was unguarded against people, he seemed a little lazy, as if he was careless. Yang Xian couldn't feel this layer, but he was not satisfied with his indifferent attitude, so he sent him to wash the vegetables.

Gu Sheng was always gentle in matters of insignificance, and obediently went to wash the vegetables.

His hands were really white and slender and beautiful, immersed in the still cold water—in the dirty gourd ladle with cabbage leaves, there was a kind of blasphemy-like beauty.

Gu Sheng is serious about everything he does, and he really doesn't feel sorry for himself. It makes people suspect that this person has no sense of his own specialness. Seeing his seriousness, Yang Xian feels that he should be humble before. He was surprised to find that Gu Sheng secretly believed that this person was smart after learning mathematics by himself, so it can be deduced that cooking and so on must not be much worse.

So in the next few days, Yang Xian deeply and painfully realized what Gu Sheng said to him at the beginning of the phrase "fancy is not useful", and he paid an incomparable price for it, and finally in a certain rage Under the circumstances, he gave up saving the young man who burned the kitchen.

Gu Sheng seemed to have no regrets, and sincerely explained that he had really bothered, Yang Xian didn't know whether to cry or laugh.Maybe this also belongs to the category that no one is perfect. The so-called useless is a scholar.

Yang Xian said to him: "Hey, you are born to be a young master! I won't serve you anymore! Whoever loves to serve you can serve him!"

Gu Sheng answered the words with a wolfish look in his eyes: "Hurry up, hurry up, I told you earlier that you don't need to worry about me."

Yang Xian glared at him: "Just you? Believe it or not that you burped in two or three days alone?"

Of course Gu Sheng would not, although the truth could be worse.Because Jiang Cheng settled the affairs of Jinzhou half a month ago, he came to Jiangnan last week and rented a room opposite Gu Sheng's house to live temporarily.
