Treasure Hunters, Sail the Blue Sea

Chapter 423

The white ceiling.

"Drip, drip, drip..."

There was a beeping sound in my ear.

This is a modern facility. Looking at the equipment in the ward, it is obviously a single room.From the variety of equipment, it can be seen that the patients inside belong to the category with more serious conditions.

A set of monitoring machines was placed next to it, and the patch responsible for monitoring body data was attached to Hongchen's body with cables of different colors.

Various data are being displayed on the monitor, with wavy lines on it.

Refreshing with the sound of fluctuations.

From time to time, it makes a steady and low beeping sound.

The sound was neither harsh nor slow, indicating that his body was relatively safe.

"Excuse me, is this Mr. Hong Chen who is on the first bed?" The nurse's gentle voice came from next to my ear.

Hong Chen straightened his bewildered head and nodded.Seems a little sleepy.

He replied in a weak and low voice: "Yes."

"I'm your responsible nurse, my name is..."

The nurse's voice was next to his ear, but his thoughts had already drifted elsewhere.

He didn't notice until the nurse left.

It was slightly dark around the hospital bed.

Suddenly the door of the ward opened, and Hong Chen turned his head to look over, but the bed was closed by the blue curtains, so he couldn't see what was going on outside.

Then the curtain was opened and the light streamed in.

This is a single room in a ward.

A middle-aged woman was busy alone in the ward, and the curtains and windows were drawn.

Then he brought the lunch box over, sat by the bed, and looked at the machine carefully.

Then he looked at the situation next to him.

Picked up a long note from the position at the end of the bed.

Take a closer look at the items above.

Prices are clearly marked on the back of each item.

It ranges from a few cents to thousands.

That's what it costs these days.

Add up to a level close to tens of thousands.

"Fortunately, I can report it." The woman muttered twice, her expression didn't change much, and she casually put the data sheet into her pocket.

Now that he has been able to calculate on his own that those in it can be reported, the actual amount to be paid after the calculation is not so exaggerated.

Open the lunchbox.

"Son, how did you sleep last night?"

Hong Chen turned his head and looked at his mother.

My mother was still opening the lunch box while talking.

"It's okay, Mom. It's like a dream."

"Dreaming? How about breathing oxygen tonight?"

"Forget it, it's just a dream, Mom, it's not that serious."

"What are you afraid of? Oxygen inhalation is not expensive."

"It's not expensive or not, I still have the strength to breathe by myself.

It's too strange to feel tired when breathing too much oxygen. "

"Okay, okay, let's get something to eat."

The middle-aged woman said that the lunch box had been opened, and there was nothing very good inside.

I can't even eat good food. There is only one bowl of porridge, but this bowl of porridge exudes a faint smell of fish.

You can see some fish and shrimp in the porridge.

There is also a bowl of fresh and sweet fish soup underneath.

The smell of carp.

"I will do it myself."

"Okay, do it yourself, be careful of burning."

As she spoke, she handed over the spoon and bowl.

Hong Chen finished the bowl and spoon, and could see that there were still bruises on the back of his hand, and his whole hand became a little dry.

There are indwelling needles on the back of both hands, and even one on the arm.

Avoid reinserting blood vessels for each infusion.

Looking at her son's withered and wrinkled hands, the old woman silently turned her head away, stood up, took a few steps, and then walked back.

"Is it tasty?"

"It's delicious, it's much more comfortable to eat something."

After eating, while the women were cleaning up, the door was opened.

A doctor in a white coat followed by a young intern walked in, looked at Hong Chen and smiled.

After asking some questions and recording in the notebook, he walked out, and yelled at the woman when he was at the door.

"Come to the family, I need your help here."

Mother nodded, put the packed lunch box on the bedside table, wiped her hands and went out.

Hong Chen just lay on the bed a little weakly.

This is a separate ward, and the corridor outside is not so noisy.

But he was able to hear the voice outside the door, it was obviously not loud, but he could hear it very clearly.

Is the sound insulation of the hospital so bad?
"Family, do you want to consider taking them back? The cost of staying here every day is too high, and now I can almost go home.

At this time, patients want to stay at home, which is also a good thing for the patient's mentality. "

"I know all about doctors, but my son..."

"Oh, let him go home and stay for a while, how uncomfortable it is to be in this hospital, are you right?"

"Okay, just... go back."

"No problem, you wait a while to go through the discharge procedures, don't worry about that during this time, just take the medicine.

Take him to rest and take him out to play if you want to play, but don't go too far.

There is nothing strict about eating. It is also a good thing to eat some good supplements.

Of course, you don't want it to be too greasy, too spicy, or too exciting. "

The doctor in front of him has tried his best to express his meaning in euphemism.

Mother just nodded, and the sadness on her face was not too obvious.

This is an established fact, already sad enough.

Sighing, he opened the door with a calm face and walked in.

"Mom, are you going back?"

"Huh? Well, I'm going home."

A smile appeared on Hong Chen's face: "Are you leaving today?"

Seeing this smile, my mother couldn't hold back any longer, and said in a trembling voice: "Well... yes, Mom, Mom is going to go to the hospital, you can rest for a while."

As he spoke, he quickly opened the door and ran out.

A slight sobbing sound could be heard going all the way.

"Since when have my ears been so sharp?" Facing the imminent death, Hong Chen was somewhat relieved.

He felt that he was not so tired, and the pain in his body seemed to be relieved, and he didn't know what was going on.

After a while a nurse came in and started cleaning the monitor on him.

By the way, he took off the indwelling needles in his hand.

After the nurse left, Hong Chen, who seemed to have unloaded a heavy burden, left the bed and went outside the window, looking at the tall buildings and busy traffic outside.

"Go and see the sea in a few days." He said to himself.

Then I felt weak again.

"It's the last few days, let's take a look back, and stick to it."

I didn't know who I was talking to, so I patted my body and started to clean up by myself.

After a while, the door was pushed open.

"Why did you pack it up by yourself, go up and rest, mom."

"Oh, it's okay, it will rust if it doesn't move."

"That's fine, then go and clean up the chargers in the cabinet, these mothers come here."

Hong Chen nodded, but didn't force it.

He quickly changed out of the hospital gown, put on the long-lost normal clothes, came to the parking lot, and sat in the co-pilot.

"Is there anything you want to travel? Anyway, they are all out, let's find a place to play."

"I want to go to the beach, Mom."

"seaside?"

"Yes, last night I dreamed that I was on a boat on the sea, that kind of ancient sailing boat."

"Oh, let's book tickets tonight, but unfortunately your dad is busy and Xiao Hong has gone to school again."

"It's okay, let me see where there is such an ancient ship project on the seaside."

Talking and laughing back home.

Looking at his own room, Hong Chen stood where he was, and suddenly froze for a moment.

"what happened?"

"I want to teleport in."

"Huh?" The mother looked puzzled.

"What are you talking about, silly boy? Mom is going to cook. Let's see which beach you want to go to."

Hong Chen nodded, then sat on the sofa and picked up the phone.

"It's been a long time."

Looking at the phone, I feel a little dazed, what are you doing?

Landlords?
Why do you think about Fighting the Landlord?

Shaking his head, he got up and walked to his room.

I saw the fish screen on my desk, gaming chairs, speakers, and consoles.

Next to the Royal Sanjia.

Pick up the red and blue machine and press the button on it, and watch the small house appear on the screen.

"I really miss it."

Missing something you just played a few days ago?
Putting the machine back in, Hong Chen lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling.

It feels weird.

Alas, people who are about to die, how weird can it be?
……

After eating and sleeping, buying a plane ticket, I boarded a plane with my mother to a coastal city early in the morning of the second day, and booked a hotel by car after a connecting flight.

As the night approached, the sun was about to set, and he finally saw the beach and the vast sea.

"Is the sun setting? That's interesting."

A child passing by took a strange look at this older brother who looked a little weak.

Neuropathy.

The mother next to him also took a look at him and patted him: "What are you talking about, silly child?"

Be amazed when the sun sets.

"It's nothing, it's hard to come out."

In addition to tourists, you can also see a retro man-made ancient port on the far side of the beach.

There are three different ancient sailing ships parked at the port, which are almost 1:1 replicas, but they are closed.

"Look, that's the sailboat you were talking about yesterday."

What the mother was referring to was a modern sailboat, a small one-person sailboat, and a male figure was controlling the sailboat to glide along the waves in the distant sea.

"That's what I said yesterday, Mom, look over there." Hong Chen pointed to the ancient sailing boat play area in the distance.

"Oh, you said the ancient one."

Hongchen swam in the sea for a while, and when it was almost dark, he went to the hotel with his mother.

After dinner at the hotel, I went back to my room alone, looking at the night view of the seaside through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

"Slowly turning black, that's how it feels."

As he spoke, he touched his bald head, and took off the hat he had been wearing when he returned to the room.

Day 2.

Hong Chen and his mother bought tickets and entered the three ancient sailing ships.

A tour guide is narrating.

"This kind is an ancient Chinese sailing ship. Compared with the sailing ships of other countries at that time, Chinese sailing ships have a special feature, that is, the sails are made of side-by-side bamboo curtains that can fall down."

As he spoke, he demonstrated it under the ancient Chinese sailboat. It was not canvas, but bamboo curtains.

Hongchen also felt very novel, and kept checking.

Is this thing bamboo?
They then went on to another sailboat.

This is exactly the same as the foreign sailboat seen in the movie.

"This is the sailboat used in ancient times abroad."

Hongchen walked around on the boat to have a look.

"Look, mom, he has tied the knot wrong. This kind of knot should not be done. He should tie it like this, so that it can be easily taken out and stronger at sea."

Listening to her son's narration, the mother looked at him with strange eyes.

Then I was a little embarrassed, didn't I even know my son's hobbies?
"When did you like this kind of stuff?"

But it's strange that my son doesn't seem to have bought a model or a book similar to a sailboat.

I've never seen him show any interest in this area.

"No, I only liked it recently." Hong Chen said a few perfunctory words.

When he came to the bow of the ship and looked towards the sea, he suddenly raised his hand, and then came to the deck of the ship and patted the mast.

He looked at the poop, then at the forecastle.

Instead of a prow, the ship has a mast that extends straight out.

"It's fine if it's a bird's head." He said inexplicably.

They have been traveling around in this month, and it seems that Hong Chen's complexion is getting better and better.

But only he himself knows that this is a bit like returning to the past, since only his mother was with him, and his father also put down what he was doing to follow.Then even my sister took leave of school and came back.

After traveling around and returning home, Hongchen sat on the sofa.

The family was busy in the kitchen, only my sister was sitting on the sofa, turning her head to look at him from time to time.

"It's okay, what are you looking at me for? Crazy?"

"What kind of insanity, don't worry about me, I can watch as much as I want, if I have the ability to poke my eyes out." His sister said bluntly.

Looking at his sister, Hong Chen suddenly sat on the sofa and pouted his buttocks.

"Smell a fart for you."

"Crazy, crazy!" After scolding twice, his sister sat on the sofa again.

Finally, from time to time, he paid attention to him from the corner of his eye.

Hong Chen stood up, his eyes seemed to have regained his clarity, and he walked around in the living room.

I looked at the balcony, and fiddled with the little flowers on both sides of the balcony from time to time.

After picking up the watering can and sprinkling water, he got into the kitchen and looked at his parents' busyness, and chatted with a smile.

I opened the refrigerator, and didn't take anything from it, I just opened it and looked.

After looking at the shoe cabinet at the door, he came to the dining table and sat down again.

Then he stood up again, went to the toilet outside the room next to him, somehow turned on the rain sprinkler, and then turned it off again.

Push the flush toilet.

There was a smile on his face.

Walk into my room, look at the game consoles I bought after work, turn on the computer, and cancel the password.

I looked at the model and fiddled with it twice.

He went into his parents' room again, walked around and turned on the lights and ran out again.

Then he looked to his sister's room, opened the door and walked in.

"What are you doing?" asked his sister who had been watching him.

"Your room is really messy, you don't look like a girl at all, it's embarrassing!"

"You want to take care of it? You want to take care of it! Your room is not very messy, how dare you talk about me."

"Are you a girl compared to me?" He said, closing the door directly.

He walked around the living room again and sat on the sofa.

I picked up a blanket and covered myself, feeling a little cold.

The younger sister watches TV from time to time, looks at the phone from time to time, and sits tossing and turning.

I looked at it from the corner of my eye.

Looking at his brother sitting on the sofa, his eyes have already begun to narrow slightly.

The complexion on his face became more and more gloomy, and quickly turned pale, and his lips also began to turn dark purple.

Seeing this situation, he kept looking at his sister, and couldn't hold back any longer, with a tear in his voice.

Shouted: "Mom! Dad! Come on!"

Obviously, it had been expected a long time ago.

But when this scene came, no one could hold on.

The last thing I heard were the anxious footsteps and yelling of my parents.

The whole scene begins to crumble.

Alka stood on the spot watching this scene, looking at the family members who used to sit around his body.

Looking at the room where I stayed since I was a child.

standing on the balcony.

The gold on the outside is starting to dissipate.

The image of the entire house began to shatter, turning into something like fly ash, and dissipating.

Something that had been buried in my heart appeared.

Regrets, deep regrets and thoughts.

Alka's figure disappeared, and Hong Chen, who had lost his life lying on the sofa, stood up again.

The image of my parents and sister disappeared.

The surroundings became a vast expanse of blue sea and blue sky.

The sky is the unchanging sun, and the only white clouds that move.

The sound of waves came.

A melodious singing sounded beside her ears, and Alka was already standing on the deck of the Eagle of Dawn.

The figures of Xia Daiti and others appeared.

Lucilia sat on his shoulder, and Shadetti came to his side, reaching out to hold his arm.

The crystal dragon glides across the sky and lands on the deck. Because of its body, its tail hangs down on the sea.

Pororo jumped off the deck.

Simon ran out of the cabin.

Smell the aroma of food and hear the melodious singing voice.

Then the girls frolicked around, jumping up and down the vines that could move freely.

Deep regret fades away.

More came pouring in, filling the void left by the regret as it faded.

Alka just stood on the deck and looked into the distance.

"The regrets are gone, Hong Chen, at least this time, he died at home surrounded by his family without any regrets. It's not just muddled."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and squeezed it hard.

The illusion dissipated.
