The First Volume: The Eight Desolations Chapter 20: Adoptive Parents
At noon, Zhao Feng ate three bowls of rice in Zhuang's hometown, and his body recovered sixty percent from a weak state, which was considered out of danger, and the speed of black blood in the bloodline was also significantly improved.
The medicinal power of black blood will not be weakened by the loss of black blood, the source of medicinal power comes from the bloodline, as long as the bloodline is not damaged, the medicinal power will never decay.
At this time, Zhuang Lao walked out of the inner room with a relaxed expression, and was about to bend his knees when he came to Zhao Feng.
"Zhuang Lao can't!" Zhao Feng hurriedly stepped forward to support Zhuang Lao.
"I, Zhuang Chongyang, have never thanked anyone in my life, but this time, I must say something! Mr. Zhao will be the great benefactor of me and the cub in the future! Once there is an order, Zhuang has no other words!" Zhuang Chongyang reported his full name, showing sincerity.
"Don't say anything about being gracious or unbeneficial, Zhuang Lao can take care of Yaya for eleven years, which makes me even more admired! And I can't bear to watch Yaya suffer inhuman pain at a young age, if Zhuang Lao intends to express his position, please keep this matter secret, after all, I am just an ordinary person, I don't want to cause any trouble because of this......" Zhao Feng insisted on not letting Zhuang Chongyang kneel.
If the people in the village knew that the cub's condition had improved, Zhuang would say that he had accidentally picked the spirit grass, and he would never expose the benefactor's secret. Although Zhuang Chongyang gave up kneeling, he still did not change his respect in his tone, and completely regarded Zhao Feng as a guest.
"That's good...... What is the situation of the girl now?" Zhao Feng was helpless, and then diverted the topic.
"The toxins in the body have decreased sharply, and there is no longer oozing blood and sweat, but I haven't gotten out of bed all year round, and my limbs have degenerated severely, and I can't walk normally in the short term, but fortunately, Zhuang has used a lot of prescriptions to maintain the activity of the cub's limbs over the years, and in the future, with only a little exercise, it can slowly return to normal, but it's just ......" Zhuang Chongyang wanted to speak and stopped.
"Is it because the source of the poison has not been solved?" Zhao Feng could actually roughly guess this situation.
"As the benefactor said, although the uremia of the cub was dissipated by a force of medicine, and the toxicity was diluted to the extent that it did not affect life, it was only temporary, as long as the source of poison was not removed, it was only a matter of time before the toxicity returned...... However, the situation is not so bad, at least the girl will not be suffering from illness all day long, Zhuang plans to take advantage of this time to use the medicine to enhance the immunity and physical fitness of the girl as soon as possible, and maybe the power of other herbs can continue the medicine that is still in effect...... "Zhuang Chongyang has come up with many coping plans, but he knows that these plans are not optimal.
The best plan is still Zhao Feng's black blood, but Zhuang Chongyang doesn't want to make demands inch by inch, after all, he can also see that after Zhao Feng's "healing", the whole person looks pale and uncomfortable.
Zhao Feng nodded, and then said, "I've been out for most of the day, and it's time to go back......"
"That's good, Zhuang asked Ergouzi to take his benefactor into the city......" Zhuang Chongyang was a little disappointed in his heart, but he didn't complain.
"No, I know the general direction, I can go back by myself...... I will come back tomorrow. ”
Zhao Feng smiled, and then went out to leave......
"I'll come back tomorrow. Zhao Feng's words echoed in Zhuang Chongyang's mind, and the meaning of the words was already obvious.
Seeing Zhao Feng's figure disappear at the end, Zhuang Chongyang finally couldn't hide his emotions, knelt down in the direction of Zhao Feng's departure, and kept shouting "benefactor" and "thank you" in his mouth......
......
After descending the mountain, Zhao Feng determined the general direction and hurried at full speed with the body of a fierce beast.
Two hours later, Zhao Feng found the highway as he wished, spent 20 yuan to let the passing motorcycle take him to the city, and finally took an hour's shuttle bus back to Ximei Town, and when he walked into the Fuyuan community, it was already 3:11 in the afternoon.
"You're back! I thought you had been kidnapped! I called your phone and it was still outside the service area, where did you go? I almost called the police!" Bai Ze breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Zhao Feng coming back.
"I was a little scared to see the scene so enthusiastic last night, so I ran first, but I wasn't familiar with that side, so I got lost while walking, and I came back after a big circle...... What's wrong with the Divine Sword?" Zhao Feng subconsciously concealed from Bai Ze what he had seen about Qilin Mountain.
"Of course Ye Xiao has succeeded, how can the master of the divine sword that I have appointed will pull his crotch? I have already gone to see Ye Xiao at noon, he agreed to give Ling Fox Bow that old man an extension of life, and the dragon scales also followed Ye Xiao, Ling Fox Bow said that he would give me an intermediary fee, in order to make the Fox family's handwriting, this intermediary fee will not be less, how about you and I divide it equally at that time?" Bai Ze proposed.
"I'm just a bystander, you don't have to give me any money, but this Ye Xiao...... He can really give people a life, how long can he last?" Zhao Feng waved his hand and rejected Bai Ze's invitation to "share the spoils".
"Well...... Because the fact has not yet happened, the trajectory I predicted has not yet changed, and I can't predict how many lives will be extended, with Ye Xiao's tone at the time, it seems that it will continue for ten years, but it is not certain, because if you want to continue your life with Ye Xiao's method, there is still a lack of medicinal materials, so Fox Gong said that he would do his best to find it, and the year of the medicinal materials found will affect the amount of life continuation. Bai Ze knocked his forehead, revealing a little tangled.
"Wouldn't that be exactly what you wanted? Zhao Feng sat on the sofa in the living room and stretched, and then he felt empty again.
"I know, but I just know. Bai Ze smiled bitterly.
"That flavor of medicinal materials is not a mortal thing, all of them are mastered by the cultivation circle, so that the fox bow can't get enough benefits in exchange for medicinal materials...... The time limit given by Ye Xiao is seven days, and after the time limit, Ye Xiao will no longer make a move, and he has also found an excuse for himself that 'the grandmaster's mantra is a rule', in the final analysis, he just doesn't want to be responsible, and he doesn't want to leave people with the truth of 'knowing his kindness and not repaying it'! If he is out of the rules, I will still follow the law! My prophecy will not come true! Am I proud?" Bai Ze proudly said that he was not proud.
"No matter what the outcome, you did your best...... Speaking of which, before leaving yesterday, I saw the power of that divine sword, it was indeed terrifying, ordinary people can really forge such a divine sword? There shouldn't be any untold stories, right?" Zhao Feng was eager to know if the divine knife had anything to do with the "dragon" he saw and heard, but he couldn't ask clearly.
"Hehe, of course there is a story, and it's a pretty cruel story...... Actually...... The master of the dragon scales did not ......"
Just as Bai Ze was about to explain, Zhao Feng's mobile phone rang, and when he took it out, it turned out to be a call from his adoptive father Zhao Qingyu.
"Later, I'll answer the phone......" Zhao Feng got up and hurriedly walked to the balcony to answer the phone.
The content of the call is very simple, Zhao Qingyu's family of four took advantage of the summer vacation to return to their hometown, and the phone call just now was to ask Zhao Feng to pick up the airport.
After Zhao Feng answered the phone, he didn't care about eating, so he hurriedly left for Taoyuan Airport, although the Zhao family has not taken care of themselves much, but after all, they are their nominal parents, and Zhao Feng still retains respect for them.
Zhao Feng ordered a taxi half an hour in advance and waited patiently at the exit.
"Zhao Feng!
A middle-aged shout came from not far away, and along the way, a middle-aged man who looked to be in his early forties was dressed in brand-name casual clothes, and he had the demeanor of a successful person, this person was Zhao Feng's adoptive father, Zhao Qingyu.
And the woman next to Zhao Qingyu, over forty years old, is extremely well maintained, looks no different from thirty years old, although the actual height is only one meter fifty-nine, but with the assistance of high heels and slim long skirts, she still looks tall, this woman is Zhao Feng's adoptive mother Zhang Lilin.
A man and a woman and two children are following the two of them, the man is called Zhao Zilong, and the woman is called Zhao Yuanyuan, who is eight years old this year, is a pair of twins, and the facial features of the two little babies are seven or eight points similar, the male is handsome, and the female is soft.
"Uncle Zhao, Aunt Zhang, Zilong, Yuanyuan, I haven't seen you for a long time!" Zhao Feng stepped forward to greet him, took the suitcase from his adoptive parents' hands, and rubbed the heads of his younger siblings.
Zhao Feng has been calling his adoptive parents uncle and aunt since he was a child, which was originally meant to be corrected, but with the birth of twins later, it doesn't matter if he changes his words or not, he simply keeps calling them until now.
"I haven't seen you for a year and a half, and I'm relieved to see that you look quite strong. Zhao Qingyu smiled and patted Zhao Feng's shoulder.
"Uncle Zhao and Aunt Zhang too, it seems that they are younger than the last time they met, and Zilong is taller, but you Yuanyuan, why are you still like this, are you a picky eater?" Zhao Feng couldn't hide his joy, and his smile kept coming.
"Hmph! I'm not a picky eater! I've grown taller too! Wait a few days, I'll be taller than Brother Zhao Feng!" Zhao Yuanyuan tilted her head unconvinced, and while she spoke, she exaggerated her hand above her head, and when she realized that she couldn't be taller than Zhao Feng when she raised her hand, she was like a deflated balloon, hiding behind Zhang Lilin, and poked out her head and made a grimace at Zhao Feng.
"Hehe, Uncle Zhao and Aunt Zhang, have you eaten? If you haven't eaten, you can eat some nearby. Zhao Feng smiled helplessly, and asked while moving his luggage to the back of the taxi.
"Lunch is provided on the plane, so you don't have to worry about it...... Alas, you click on my box, it is full of high-end cosmetics and bags, don't break it for me!" Zhang Lilin said in a weird manner, from the beginning of the meeting, she wore sunglasses, tilted her head slightly, and looked arrogant.
"Oh oh! I'm sorry!" Zhao Feng hurriedly replied, and then carefully put the suitcase away.
Zhao Feng has long understood his admiration, and when he comes back every year, he can judge how his business has been outside this year through his adoptive mother's expression.
If you are unhappy for a long time, you are basically losing money;
If you take the initiative to say hello to people, it is a small profit;
If you see everyone smiling at you, you will make a lot of money.
Seeing Zhang Lilin's current attitude, Zhao Feng knew that his adoptive parents were afraid that they had made a fortune in the past year and a half.
"Lilin, you're almost done......" Zhao Qingyu reminded his wife in a low voice, but in exchange for a cold snort.
It's a lot of four people in one car, but it's just right to have two small children.
Zhao Feng didn't get on the train, he went directly to a nearby station and bought a ticket for five yuan.
That night, Zhao Feng did not go back to the rental house, and after explaining the situation to Bai Ze, he went home, had a good dinner with his adoptive father, and played with his younger brothers and sisters for a while, and did not return to the room to rest until nine o'clock......
Zhao Qingyu was half drunk, and pushed open the door of the master bedroom with a drunken body, and Zhang Lilin was applying a mask and looking at her mobile phone in front of the makeup table.
"Zhao Feng, this kid is really amazing! Although he didn't pass the college entrance examination, he also found a stable job, saying that the monthly salary is 4,007, and I was still an apprentice at his age! Hahahaha! My wife is so beautiful! Come on! Kiss one!" Zhao Qingyu was obviously in a good mood, and when he was about to report Zhang Lilin, he was pushed away.
"Awesome? Hmph! What can you do with a monthly salary of 4,007 in a first-tier city? If he is not admitted to college, then he will be living a frugal life in the countryside in this life! Don't hug me when you are drunk! I ask you! Did you tell him about that?" Zhang Lilin frowned and avoided Zhao Qingyu's second bear pounce.
"What's that?" Zhao Qingyu was confused and didn't think about it for a while.
"You! Tell you that drinking is bad! You drink so much! I mean the matter of separating the family! Listen to you, Zhao Feng now has the ability to support himself, and we have let him live in the house of his hometown for free for so many years, and we have done our best! It's time for him to go out on his own...... Can't we give the money we've earned over the years to an outsider!"
