Chapter 137 It’s Up to You
"I want some cookies..."
"Eat, eat, eat!" Chang Kai stuffed the newly changed diaper into the trash can.
"I want some cookies..."
"You have to let me free up my hands too!" He said, took out the disinfectant gel to disinfect his hands, and went to open the window. While opening the window, he couldn't help but take a long breath. The air outside had a clear and crisp feeling.
He has adapted to the air in this ward.
The gastroenterology ward was full of patients with some form of gastrointestinal ailment. His mother's condition was the most serious, requiring her to eat, drink, defecate, and urinate in bed. The smell was unbearable. But now, encountering this fresh air, he still wanted to breathe in a few more breaths.
I don’t know when it will end!
His mother's illness was incurable. He knew it was Alzheimer's and stomach cancer that had metastasized to the pleura. The doctor had told him to just get by.
But this seems to be endless.
Even though she had stomach problems, my mother could still eat. But after eating, she would have to poop again not long after. So I had to constantly wipe her body and change her diaper.
"I think……"
"eat!"
He quickly opened the window, took out the biscuits, tore open the package and handed them to his mother on the hospital bed. The latter took the biscuits, took two bites and started coughing again.
The biscuit crumbs were sprayed everywhere, but my mother kept putting them into her mouth.
"Stop!" he went up to stop her. His mother showed a timid expression and looked very aggrieved. "I want to eat cookies..."
As she spoke, she started coughing again. This time, she coughed twice and vomited. He hurried to get the apron next to him, but it was too late.
There was all kinds of dirt on his mother's neck, clothes, and even the bed sheets, and on his hands as well.
"I told you to keep going, if you want to vomit, go under the bed!"
He knew his mother had no such awareness, but he couldn't help but say it. His mother went back to eating the biscuits with her hands stained with dirt, and he couldn't help but hit her.
The biscuit fell to the ground, and the mother was stunned and burst into tears.
“I, I…”
"It's dirty, you can't eat it! You've already vomited, why would you eat it?"
"Woo woo...I want to eat cookies..."
He couldn't help but shiver.
Eat, eat, eat!
What can I eat!
After eating, I either vomit or have diarrhea!
Is this just enduring the day? This is enduring him!
"I want……"
"Shut up!" He couldn't hold back any longer and cried out. His mother's body trembled, and the one in the bed next to him couldn't bear it any longer. "Sister, your son isn't stopping you from eating. You should give him some time to clean up. Once he's done, he'll give you some cookies. Your son is so good to you. There aren't many people who are so filial to you."
The clinician's words were full of sorrow, but the mother didn't hear a word he said. She continued to sob and say that she wanted to eat cookies.
Chang Kai felt even more depressed and even had a feeling of despair.
Just die!
Just die!
No one can survive if this continues. It's better to let this woman die! She no longer knows anything and is still suffering. She used to be such a strong person with mysophobia, but now she has only the most primitive instincts and has lost all dignity!
If she was still conscious and not suffering from dementia, she would definitely not want to end up in this situation.
Yes, kill her!
Killing her would be better for everyone!
"So this is what it's like to be promoted to Grandmaster."
Someone in the room seemed to have sighed like this, but he didn't care to understand.
He knew about the martial arts tournament. He wasn't particularly interested, but he wasn't completely uninterested either. It was a grand event, and only the most gifted of talents could participate, a completely different world from his own. Whoever won or lost, or what they achieved, made no difference to him.
But this was the biggest event in the country, and even the world. For a long time, everyone was talking about it, so he would go watch it, at least to talk about it with everyone at work.
But now he doesn't have to. In order to take care of his mother, he hasn't been to work for half a year. At first he asked for leave, but later he was persuaded to resign by the company. He has nothing to say. After all, he doesn't know how long he will have to take care of his mother.
"Really, Xiao Chang, it must be because of you that your mother was able to hold on for so long." This was what his mother's attending physician had said to him earlier. He was very pleased and proud at the time.
Although he lost many opportunities and wasted a lot of time, it's good that his mother is still alive.
Now, he just thinks what's the point?
It's worse to be dead than alive!
"Wow, the smoke is getting thicker!" the clinician exclaimed.
"Don't talk, listen to what Grandmaster Li says." The person on the other bed spoke.
Originally, he was just a fellow patient, so I had to be polite to him, but now I couldn't care less.
The person on the bed earlier didn't care and unconsciously stretched her neck forward. She also wanted to know what Li Yinuo said.
"Turn up the volume!"
The person on the bed reacted and picked up the remote control to turn up the volume. Li Yinuo's voice clearly reached Chang Kai's ears: "From what I see, she is communicating with spiritual time."
The commentator of the "Spiritual World" was now really shining. "We all know that to become a Grandmaster, one needs a strong spiritual force. So, is there really such a world here? And does this white mist appear during the communication process?"
This is what attracts you!
Li Yinuo said in his heart.
Earlier, he was full of doubts about what Yang Zheng said about the master's performance, but Yang Zheng was very sure: "Performance! But I can't do it alone. I probably need to be in a state of meditation at that time. Is that right? Can't I become a master by talking and singing?"
Yang Zheng glared at him, as if to say yes, she would do it. He forced himself to swallow back the words "you can't do it either". Although he hadn't seen it many times, he had a certain understanding of Yang Zheng's train of thought.
If he said that, no matter whether it succeeded or not, Yang Zheng would definitely say that he could do it!
This is the promotion to Grandmaster!
This can't be... Apart from anything else, it's dangerous!
"No," he said affirmatively.
Yang Zheng sighed, looking very regretful.
But she quickly regained her spirits: "So, Mr. Li, I need you to help me explain it."
“…Explanation.”
"What I'm thinking of now is to create some smoke or fog...if that doesn't work, I'll create some lightning or something. Let's see how I can be by then." All that Yang Zheng knew about the Grandmaster came from what was revealed in later generations.
Because Li Yinuo and others appeared on the show, some people asked them about the Grandmaster's situation, and they also said something.
So Yang Zheng knew that just like the differences in agility and strength routes earlier, there would be different routes after becoming a grandmaster.
"Can you be more specific?" a host asked earlier.
"... Generally speaking, the abilities displayed by a power-type master are more related to strength." This was Li Yinuo's answer at the time.
This answer drew some criticism when it was first published, with some saying, "One word is as good as another." However, a martial arts magazine soon began analyzing it.
"We all know that Grandmasters have special abilities. For example, the famous Grandmaster Lei Yidao has long been rumored to have a special move related to lightning. Does this mean that... a Grandmaster of strength might have a special move related to force, such as gravity?"
Later, many articles made various analyses, and there were also some interviews with the masters.
No grandmaster confirmed this, but they didn't deny it either, so the martial arts community took it for granted.
In her previous life, Yang Zheng practiced monkey tricks... In this life, strictly speaking, she didn't have time to choose... There was no way, she upgraded too quickly.
It wasn't that she didn't work hard; quite the opposite. Even when she wasn't competing, she never missed out on the training she'd been doing during the competitions. In the past, she'd spent a lot of time studying, but now... well, it was all just training.
But this time, because she had the system, she first added strength, and her mental strength was extremely sufficient, so she did not choose a fixed method.
Of course, this is also to wait for Li's martial arts school to open.
Yang Zheng's original plan was to go to college first, and before she finished, the Li's Martial Arts School would open. Then she could go in openly, and after that, she could use the Li's martial arts that she practiced in her previous life - she really didn't expect that she would be upgraded so quickly! Who knew that once there was a live TV broadcast, the energy would surge.
Strictly speaking, Li's Kung Fu follows the path of agility, so after becoming a Grandmaster, will she lean towards this direction?
She didn't know either, she had no experience before!
"So I'm going to come up with these things. Mr. Li, just talk about something that's interesting."
"…topical" What does this mean? If Yang Zheng said it was a compliment, he could understand it. If it was a comment, it would be very clear. Topicality is this, do you still want to belittle it?
"Black and red are also a kind of red!" Yang Zheng looked at him affirmatively, but when he saw that he was a little dazed, he waved his hand and said, "Well, I don't quite agree with this theory. Then... Mr. Li, please explain it in a more profound way. Anyway, you need to draw everyone's attention to this."
Li Yinuo nodded slowly: "Be careful."
Yang Zheng smiled.
“This is the most crucial thing!”
He reminded him again, and Yang Zheng waved at him. He didn't know whether Yang Zheng listened to him or not, but he had no other choice now.
"It's hard to say what the spiritual world is all about. You can think it's real, or you can think it's virtual. In a way, it depends on you." Li Yinuo started talking. People in front of the TV and at the scene said they didn't understand. Moreover, most people also had the feeling that what you said was nonsense.
The commentator blinked once, then blinked again: "Well, Master Li... can you explain in more detail why it's up to us. If we think it exists, does that mean it really exists?"
"It also requires energy, which ordinary people may not have. So even if you believe in it, you can't really achieve it."
"So the Grandmaster can be Yang... Yang..." The commentator was in a dilemma. In the past, he had called Yang Zheng a classmate of Yang Zheng, but now... they were all going to be Grandmasters, so how could he still call them classmates?
The author has something to say:
I've applied for the list again, but... I stopped updating for a few days, so I probably won't be able to apply, embarrassing...
Thank you very much for your support. I will continue to work hard!
