Chapter 43 (1/2)
”Bang, bang, Bang...”
The rhythmic knocking came from outside the window.
”Cough... Qingmeng, are you here? Cough... ”The little girl dragged her weak body to the window and opened the window as usual.
”Oh, how are you today?” The sparrow flew into the house, circled over the girl's head twice, and fell back to the window edge.
”Cough, much better than yesterday.”
A smile appeared on the little girl's haggard face, and then took out a walnut from the pocket of her sick suit: ”sorry, Qingmeng... Cough, the nurse aunt didn't allow me to go out. I couldn't get food today... That's all.”
”It doesn't matter. I'm not picky about food.”
The sparrow jumped on a walnut that was a circle bigger than its head and pecked it.
”Is there a story today?” After coughing a few times, the girl asked the sparrow.
”Yes, there are many stories... For example, in the park in the city today...”
As usual, the sparrow pecked at the dried fruit and told what he had seen and heard.
But after a while, he couldn't get a response from the girl, which made him a little curious, so he looked up and found that the girl had fallen to the ground and lost consciousness.
”No! Come on, come on... I'll go. Ordinary people who forget this world can't hear my voice. ”
The sparrow circled several times in a panic in the room. Then it flew to the nurse station of the hospital and made a big noise there. It scared several nurses who thought they had hit a supernatural event. In addition, it also made them notice the strange situation on the little girl's side.
When the little girl regained consciousness, she found herself lying on a pure white hospital bed with an oxygen mask on her face.
At the bedside, a doctor who was recording something against the instrument saw her wake up. First, he loudly blamed the little girl for her ignorance. Obviously, her body was so bad that she even opened the window to blow the cold wind. She simply didn't want to live; Then I saw the little girl drooping her face and looking depressed. Then I comforted her that she was all right for the time being. Don't worry too much.
After the doctor left, the little girl looked up at the window, but there was no green shadow there, only half a walnut.
After that, the girl's physical condition deteriorated day by day. Although the sparrow still flew to her window every day and pecked at the window, the girl had the strength to get out of bed and open the window less and less.
But the sparrow doesn't care. It always tells the girl about the outside scenery across the glass. The girl apologizes to it for not getting food. It pecks two bites of the walnut to signal that the other party doesn't care.
I don't know what method the sparrow used. The half walnut is like a root on the edge of the window. The wind can't blow away and the rain can't rot. even if other birds see it, they don't dare to come and peck.
No matter how dull the little girl was, she realized that the little sparrow was different from when she almost starved to death six months ago. Its once weak wings had long been strengthened by its unrestrained flying in the past six months. The ability to see everything in her eyes must have given it other ways to find food.
He's only here to see her now.
This warmed the little girl's heart and gave her enough courage to accept various treatments, because she knew that there was always a cyan sparrow waiting for her by the window of her ward.
After a few days, the nurses in the hospital began to talk about a virtuous man coming to the hospital. Curious, the little girl asked her nurse who had a good relationship with her. It was found that the reason was that the sparrow made a big fuss at the nurse station a few days ago in order to call someone to save her.
Ordinary people couldn't see Qingmeng, so it would naturally be regarded as a supernatural event, and from the intensity of the time, it was like an evil ghost. Although few people believed it, the head nurse's ancestor, as one of the parties, had a lot of roots with a famous Taoist temple. The Taoist temple's long dead leader was invited by her.
The little girl who understands the context is like falling into an ice cave. She knows very well that although the sparrow is likely to be a legendary monster, it was a monster who didn't even have a place to eat six months ago. Finally, she had to come here to beg for food from a human being. If she was really met by the Taoist priest, it would be a dead word.
From that day on, no matter how Qingmeng knocked on the window or talked to the girl, she just bit her lips, covered her head with a quilt, ignored it, and hoped that it would be disappointed and leave here.
I don't know how long it took, the windows in her ward finally stopped banging. And the half walnut, I do not know when only some residue was left.
The little girl's first friend disappeared into her life.
Although she had expected for a long time, she was still sad and couldn't help herself at that time. Her condition, which had improved, turned worse. She had to lie in bed for a few days.
It was a night.
