Chapter 613: The Story Behind Zhang Lin
After coming out of the hospital, Zhang Lin looked up at the sun as if he was fine, his eyes narrowed slightly, "Some people have experienced some things and encountered some setbacks, and they think that they have seen through Hongchen and look down on life and death, but they will find out when they are really facing death...... It's good to be alive. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
"Why are you doing that?"
At this time, Wang Yao's mood was very complicated, on the one hand, he was glad that Ruofeng had a volunteer for cornea donation, and on the other hand, he was a little uncomfortable, because Zhang Lin was the volunteer.
Although Zhang Lin is the captain of the Star Mark and the enemy of Tianzhao, if you think about it carefully, Zhang Lin has never played any heinous role.
If there is a grudge, it is also Li Nantian, the culprit. And Zhang Lin is just a pawn of him, and he has no choice in the face of orders.
"Why would I do that?" Zhang Lin laughed at himself, "It's a waste utilization." At least, there is some value before death. Of course, it's not gratuitous, and I want you to do me a favor. ”
Wang Yao solemnly said, "You say, as long as I can do my best." ”
"Hmm. I'll take you to a place, it may take two days, you can take a leave of absence. Zhang Lin said.
Wang Yao took out his mobile phone and called Yang Ye to ask for leave, Yang Ye agreed without thinking too much, after all, he knew very well that Wang Yao also needed some time to buffer his mood.
After asking for leave, Zhang Lin took Wang Yao to the train station and bought two bullet train tickets to Changsha.
"I'm a little hungry."
Zhang Lin went to the store to buy a bucket of instant noodles, and after the boiling water was flushed, he squatted at the gate of the train station and ate it, looking like he had no image at all, plus he was wearing a gray linen jacket, no one would have imagined that he was a legend in Chinese e-sports, but like a migrant worker from the countryside who came to the metropolis of Shanghai to beg for a living.
Ignoring the disdainful and superior gazes of the pedestrians around him, Zhang Lin gulped down instant noodles and shook his head and said, "In the past, this was how we lived when we first started our careers, and a bucket of instant noodles was enough. And as the days get better, most people forget their original intentions......"
Wang Yao was silent.
Today's professional players really can't understand the bitterness of their predecessors, and Zhang Lin is undoubtedly the one who has the most right to speak.
After a few sips of instant noodles, Zhang Lin wiped his mouth with his hand casually and reminded, "It's time to get in the car." ”
As soon as he got in the car, Zhang Lin was obviously sleepy, and said hello to Wang Yao, he quickly leaned back on the chair and fell asleep, Wang Yao looked out the window blankly, full of thoughts.
……
After nearly seven hours, we finally arrived at Changsha, the destination of this trip, from Shanghai.
After getting off the bus, it was raining here, Zhang Lin led Wang Yao out of the station, bought a lot of snacks, transferred to the bus and sat for more than an hour, it seemed that he had been out of Changsha, and finally took a trip to "Tumo's" for about half an hour, and finally the two stood on a mountain road full of mud and potholes.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, Wang Yao saw a village in a mountain col, with only a few earthen houses in the sparse Lala, forming such an isolated and closed village.
When he came here, a warm smile appeared on Zhang Lin's face, "That's where I came from." ”
Wang Yao, who was carrying a large bag and a bunch of snacks, was surprised.
As Zhang Lin walked into the village, Zhang Lin barked in a dialect that Wang Yao did not understand, and immediately heard a few dog barks, and then several children covered in mud ran out.
The children were visibly stunted, thin, and sallow, but the clothes they wore were not tattered.
These mud children were bouncing around Zhang Lin, cheering, obviously, in the eyes of this group of children, Zhang Lin's status was very high.
"Slow down, slow down, all of them."
Zhang Lin's dialect, Wang Yao could barely discern some of the general meanings.
The children were even happier with snacks, sweets and milk, just like the New Year.
Soon, a few more old grandfathers and grandmothers came out of the village when they heard the sound, and when they saw Zhang Lin, their faces were full of joy and they came over to greet Zhang Lin with a grin.
"Eh, I'll come back when I come back, what are you doing with so many things?"
"Lin Wazi don't bring anything next time you come back, these ghost cubs are now looking forward to you coming back and having good things to eat, you can't spoil it......"
Zhang Lin coped with a smile on his face.
Eventually, the two were led into a small mud hut by the enthusiastic villagers.
The furnishings in the earthen house are very simple, even the most basic electrical facilities are not complete, and even the ceiling is wet on rainy days.
After the old people went to cook and entertain the guests, Wang Yao asked, "These?" ”
"Left-behind villages, gathering places for left-behind children."
Zhang Lin grabbed a handful of melon seeds and put them in front of Wang Yao, and explained lightly, "You can also treat it as an orphan village." Many of these children's parents went out and never came back. As for the reason, a large part of it is because it is too poor here to stand this kind of life. ”
Wang Yao was stunned, "What about you?" ”
"I'm one of them." Zhang Lin's tone was very flat.
Wang Yao looked at Zhang Lin in disbelief, no matter how calm his tone was, Wang Yao could still imagine how difficult Zhang Lin's childhood was......
Similarly, what is unimaginable is, what kind of experience can make Zhang Lin climb to that point?
At this moment, an old man dressed in the appearance of a village cadre that could only be seen in TV dramas in the 80s led a boy about fifteen or sixteen years old in.
As soon as the young man saw Zhang Lin, he immediately showed a happy smile, "Big brother, you're back!" ”
Zhang Lin nodded, then took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and stuffed it into the old man's hand, and said to the old man, "Village Chief, how are you doing?" ”
"Okay, okay, Lin Wazi is back." The village chief smiled with relief, and then saw Wang Yao again, "Lin Wazi, this is your friend, right?" ”
"Ah, yes." Zhang Lin nodded, took out a handful of money from his pocket, and put it on the table without counting it, "This is the tuition fee for the babies, you see if it's enough, if it's not enough, I'll find a way." ”
After doing this, Zhang Lin got up and gave the young man a look, and the young man obediently followed Zhang Lin out.
After Zhang Lin went out with the young man, the village chief beckoned Wang Yao to eat casually, and then took out reading glasses from his pocket, counted the money on the table, and remembered the count in a yellowed notebook.
Wang Yao glanced and saw a dense column of numbers on the notebook, which were clearly marked and clear at a glance.
From the past few years to the present, from the initial hundreds to tens of thousands of dollars per month......
At the back, Zhang Lin's name is marked!
"Hey, you're a friend of Lin Wazi, right? If he can bring you here, he must treat you as a friend. ”
The village chief felt Wang Yao's gaze and sighed, "Lin Wazi came from a poor background, and his mother died when he remembered, and his father ran away again, but he has a chance!" Before graduating from junior high school, he went out to help people work, serving dishes in the restaurant, 600 yuan a month, and sent back 500, I really don't know how he came over......"
Suddenly, Wang Yao felt a little burning in his eyes, a person who was terminally ill and barely supported himself by relying on drugs to get to where he was today, even if he was a top professional player in the e-sports circle, where did he get so much money?
Moreover, when Zhang Lin first entered the e-sports circle, the professional players at that time were not much better than the waiters, and the conditions were even more difficult......
No wonder, Zhang Lin is obviously the top professional player in China at the moment, and it stands to reason that he should be the most decent and beautiful person, but in many cases, he is always not the most glamorous among the team members.
After playing professionally for so many years, I have never heard any lace news about him, people only know that he is crazy, know that he is focused, and know that he is powerful, but they don't know that there are so many stories behind him......
"These babies who don't have fathers and mothers also rely on Lin babies to read books and put on new clothes." The village chief closed the notebook and shook his head, "Lin Wazi is a sensible child, I believe that good people will always have good ......rewards."
Wang Yao was dazed, looking at Zhang Lin who was frowning and talking to the young man outside the house.
