No surveillance, no street lights, no pedestrians, such a night, hit people, drivers will run away.

But a 28-year-old young man Wang Dong, in the case of knocking down people, did not choose to escape, but the old man was sent to the hospital in time for treatment.

The accident happened in the evening, when the old man can stand up, the old man said he was OK, let Wang Dong anxious face hurry to go, Wang Dong hesitated for a moment, insist on down, and resolutely encourage the old man to go to the hospital for examination, but the results of the examination let Wang Dong was surprised, the old man is intracranial hemorrhage, and there was shock.

The old man should be operated on immediately, otherwise his life is in danger, the hospital notice to pay the operation fee of 20,000 yuan first, Wang Dong only loaded with more than 3,000 yuan, he immediately called the family to raise money, and try to inform the family of the old man.

The old man is a foreigner, working alone in Chongzhou, the old man's daughter rushed to the hospital, the old man has been in a high coma. A day later, the man was taken to Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital due to a severe lung infection after surgery.

Wang Dong has been accompanied in front of the old man's bed, when the cost is insufficient, he will take the initiative to pay. His actions won the trust of the elderly family, who said that even if the elderly man could not wake up, he would not be held criminally responsible.

Wang Dong's family also rushed over, and Wang Dong and the old man's family together to take care of the old man, their two families should have a grudge, but the same responsibility and goal make them meet.

Treatment costs have spent nearly 50,000 yuan, the old man woke up little hope, but the two families have been insisting, Wang Dong in addition to spending the savings of the home, has borrowed 10,000 yuan of foreign debt, but he said to the old man's family: "Dad taught me, do things must be worthy of their own conscience."

His words brought tears to the eyes of all present.

The story of Wang Dong and Li's family attracted public attention after being forwarded by enthusiastic patients on Weibo, and Wang Dong was nicknamed "Brother benevolence and righteousness". Love has poured in for the two families from all over the country, and many people have generously donated money for the elderly's medical treatment. As of December 21, the charity donation has reached more than 70,000 yuan.

Netizens "Captain Bobo" message: the same is a car accident, if the "little Yueyue" incident triggered a sense of moral crisis, in this ordinary traffic accident, we see the light, warmth, hope, feel the "positive energy" of society.

The experts said that in recent years, the occurrence of "traffic hit-and-run" incidents, "helping the elderly" and other moral misconduct cases have formed a strong impact on traditional moral values, and people are increasingly eager for good "positive energy".

The adherence of both parties to conscience and responsibility in this incident made the public once again feel the precious truth and kindness. If every person holds his conscience, he also holds the moral bottom line of the whole society.

In daily life, there are always some "crash events" that make people feel worried. Some perpetrators are afraid of the injured on their own, choose to sneak away; Some elderly people fall down, afraid to bear the cost of treatment, choose to rely on good Samaritans. Gradually, the problem of "whether to save the injured or help the elderly" has become a difficult choice for us. The story of "Renyi Brother" gave a different ending to the "crash incident"... This is mutual understanding.

You choose to bear, I choose to forgive.
