Chapter 44: Whatever It Takes
At noon, Xiao Wen came out of a high-end gym with a satisfied face.
The gym is called Limei Gym, and it's here that he got his ninth job in three years.
It turned out that the boss here looked down on him a little, but after he took off his clothes, revealing a perfect body of tendon flesh and eight well-proportioned, powerful, and beautiful abdominal muscles, the boss readily agreed.
He is a low-key person, he didn't want to be so high-profile, but his strength didn't allow it!
Riding a small electric stove, familiar with the road through the road, towards the periphery of the southern city district, did not choose to go home.
Because he wants to go home, his real home is not the Jiang family's villa, but the home where he lives with his sister and mother.
My hometown is in the old city, there are not so many high-rise buildings here, and it is relatively quiet.
He is a local hukou, and if it weren't for his mother's serious illness, the family's life would have been in the past.
Because his family's house is not small in this Yancheng City, where every inch of land is expensive, it is a small bungalow with a backyard, which was left by his father back then, but the location is relatively remote.
Walking into the old city, the style of painting here is obviously much slower than the fast-paced life in the heart of the city, and he has to go home to do something every year, which is specially explained by his mother.
When he came to his house, Xiao Wen opened the door and walked in, and looked at the house slightly.
My mother is in the hospital, my sister is in school, and I am in Jiang's house, which has been uninhabited for a long time, and it has fallen a layer of dust and looks cold.
He came to the cabinet in the living room, and there was a black and white photo on the cabinet, which was a man, with a Chinese face, sword eyebrows like clouds, and eyes like stars, very handsome.
This is his father, who died unexpectedly eleven years ago, and his body has not even been found.
And he still doesn't know why his father died, how he died!
For eleven years, he had been asking about the cause of his father's death, and every time he asked, his mother would be furious.
But the more this is the case, the more he doesn't want him to know, the more he wants to know, and this has almost become an obsession in his heart.
Bowing to the photo, he opened the cabinet door, took out paper money and incense from the ground, filled it in a black bag, and walked out of the house.
That's right, what he has to do is sweep the grave, because today is his father's birthday, and although there is no body, his mother still erects a well-dressed mound for his father, in the mountain cemetery behind.
Carrying a black plastic bag, Xiao Wen walked towards the mountains behind the old town.
I walked all the way without stopping, walking for more than half an hour, and finally came to the foot of the mountain, which is a small hill, not very big, and can also be called a grave mountain, because there must be at least hundreds of large and small graves on this mountain, all of which are buried here by the deceased people in this area.
There are usually not many people in the mountains, after all, no one will go up to the grave mountain to wander around, and they are all people who have the intention of worshipping before they come here.
Xiao Wen walked all the way up the mountain, but he didn't find a single figure, but he found a lot of various insects in the mountain.
After walking for half an hour, he came to a hillside, and when he climbed this hillside, he came to the mound where his father was.
As soon as I climbed up the hillside behind, I saw a figure standing in front of my father's tombstone, looking blank.
"Is that her?"
Xiao Wen's eyes lit up, and with just a side face, he recognized who this person was, it was the woman who came to his mother in the hospital that day and had a relationship with him.
The reason why he was able to recognize it was not only because the woman was very beautiful, but also because she had a special fierce temperament, which seemed to have something to do with his father.
Xiao Wen walked over, frowned and asked, "Why are you here?"
The woman glanced back at Xiao Wen, there was not much brilliance in her eyes, and she said in a flat tone: "Come and have a look!"
Xiao Wen's eyes narrowed, and when the woman turned her head to look over, he found that the woman's face was extremely pale, and her clothes were still stained with a large amount of blood.
"How do you..."
Seeing this situation, Xiao asked out loud.
"It's okay, it's just a dying man!"
The woman's expression was cold, and her words seemed to be speaking of an insignificant person.
"Do you know my father?"
Xiao Wen changed the subject.
The woman fell silent, looked at Xiao Wen with some remembrance in her eyes, and nodded, "Know!"
"How did he die?"
Xiao asked directly and directly asked the question he was most concerned about.
The woman was stunned, she didn't expect Xiao Wen to ask such a question so directly, and she didn't know how to answer for a while.
"Killed!"
In the end, she barely spit out these four words.
"Who killed me?"
Xiao Wen didn't give up, and asked again, with a cold glint in his eyes.
Who knew that the woman waved her hand a little weakly, "This is not what you should know!"
As he spoke, he walked over slowly, passing by Xiao Wen, as if he didn't plan to stay here.
Xiao Wen turned around, stared at her back, and said word by word, "Tell me, who killed him?"
The woman's figure froze, and there was no blood on her face, but she still asked seriously with her eyes, "Do you really want to know?"
"Of course, I want to know everything about him!"
Xiao asked to cut the gold and cut the iron.
When he was a teenager, his father had always been great in his mind, and it seemed that there was nothing in this world that could stop him.
The year his father died, he was fourteen years old, which was not an ignorant age, on the contrary, it could inspire hatred in his heart.
"Okay, to tell you... It's okay, my name is Xia Han, and he's mine..."
It's just that before she finished speaking, she saw her open her mouth and a mouthful of blood spurted out, and her body fell straight to the ground.
Xiao Wen's figure flashed, caught her body, and there were large blood stains at his hand, and when he looked closely, the woman had fainted to death in his arms.
Xiao Wen hugged her up, looking at the woman's closed eyes and pale cheeks, and her eyes were gloomy.
He didn't know what the identity of this woman was, but he definitely had a lot to do with his father, and maybe he could know the real cause of his father's death from her mouth, so he couldn't let this woman die.
But just now he has used the system to detect it, this woman has suffered a very serious internal injury, and it is a miracle that she has been able to survive until now, and she actually appeared here, it seems that the relationship with her father is indeed not ordinary.
"System, is there any way to save her?"
Xiao Wen asked the system.
"Ding! The host can spend 6,000 psionic energy to renew its life for three days!"
Xiao asked, and had a new understanding of the power of the system, this was originally a mortal person, but the system was able to extend his life for three days.
However, it is said that it is no different from a vegetative person, and it can't wake up, but there is still a trace of breath left, so that it will not be completely breathed.
Six thousand points of spiritual energy is not a small amount for him, at this time, out of the more than one thousand points consumed in the morning, his spiritual energy is only just enough, this is still last night plus today's day, the five major insect kings hunted.
"System, give her 6,000 psionic healing!"
Seeing that Xia Han's breath was getting weaker and weaker the more, and he was about to lose his breath if he didn't treat it, he hurriedly said to the system.
"Ding! The treatment is successful, and the system will maintain the life function of the target for three days!"
An invisible energy erupted from Xiao Wen's body, enveloping Xia Han and protecting her heart.
Seeing that although her breathing was slow, fortunately, she was able to stabilize her life, Xiao Wen breathed a sigh of relief.
When he walked to the grave, he began to take out paper money and light it in front of the monument, putting them into the fire one by one and letting them burn.
Looking at the photo of the man on the tablet, as well as the two big words "Xiao Chong!", Xiao Wen's heart sank slightly.
"Dad, I will definitely find the real murderer of you!"
"Whatever it takes!"
