A breeze blows, a green leaf falls from the tree, and the moon is clear, and there are no stars to rely on.

Yan Ming stood in the smoking area and smoked cigarettes one by one, with more than a dozen cigarette butts in the ashtray next to him.

His hair was messy, his eyes were blank, and he looked out the window and suddenly felt a sense of weakness.

Xu Qingqing has been transferred to the intensive care unit and has not woken up yet.

"Whew" a white mist came out of his mouth, and the last cigarette was extinguished by him in the ashtray.

When people are stressed, smoking is the best way to relieve stress, but even after smoking a pack of cigarettes, Yan Ming feels more and more anxious.

He rubbed his hair hard and punched the wall.

He slowly walked to the intensive care ward, and Fang Xiu stood by the window and looked at Xu Qingqing who was sleeping in the ward.

"Aunt Fang, you go to sleep first, I'll guard it here," Yan Ming said.

Fang Xiu shook his head, "No, I'm not sleepy, Xiao Yan, you go to sleep first"

"I'm not sleepy either"

The two of them just stood outside the window and watched quietly.

One night later.

Yan Ming's eyes were bloodshot, he looked decadent, chewing candy in his mouth, holding each other's hands and bulging arms.

Fang Xiu couldn't hold back his exhaustion, leaned back in his chair and fell asleep.

In the ward, nurses and doctors have been in for a long time, and they are checking Xu Qingqing's body.

I don't know how long later, the door of the ward opened, and the nurse shouted to Yan Ming: "Are you Xu Qingqing's family member? The patient has woken up, you can go in to visit, but it will only be ten minutes."

"Okay, okay"

Yan Ming hurriedly woke up Fang Xiu, and Fang Xiu, who knew the news of his daughter's wake-up, was extremely excited.

The two put on masks, hats, and isolation gowns and followed the nurse into the ward.

Yan Ming, who had been waiting outside all night, finally saw Xu Qingqing, she looked very haggard now, with various instruments by her side.

"Mom, Xiao Yan, you're here," she said with a smile.

Yan Ming nodded, and for a while he didn't know what to say.

"Daughter, don't be afraid, Mom will always be by your side," Fang Xiu choked up.

"Mom, I'm not afraid, it's not the first time I've entered here, it's okay" Xu Qingqing showed a bright smile.

Yan Ming's heart was sour, and his hand pinched his thigh hard to prevent himself from crying.

Xu Qingqing looked at him, "Xiao Yan, you have to help me take care of my mother, and you have to take care of yourself, you know?"

"Got it, I'm here, no problem," Yan Ming said.

"Well, don't be too sad for the two of you, smile, you're making the atmosphere too heavy."

Yan Ming grinned and wanted to laugh, but this smile was too ugly, fortunately, there was a mask in the way, and no one else could see it.

Ten minutes passed quickly, and the two reluctantly walked out of the ward.

Afternoon.

Doctors found two people.

"The patient's current situation is not optimistic, and the current plan we have formulated is to give the patient chemotherapy first to prolong the patient's life, but with the patient's current situation, it is only half a year at most, and in this half year, we must find a suitable bone marrow for her transplant as soon as possible."

"Then, can we find a suitable bone marrow match now?" Fang Xiu asked.

The doctor said: "Not for the time being, and the success rate of matching between patients who are not blood donors is only 1 in 100,000 to 1 in 200,000, so you should be mentally prepared." ”

Fang Xiu nodded, these were all told to her by the attending doctor at that time when Xu Qingqing was found to have leukemia.

It's just that Xu Qingqing's condition did not deteriorate at that time, and he could maintain it by taking medicine, but now it is different.

"In addition, the cost of the treatment is quite a bit of money," the doctor adds.

"Well, thank you, doctor"

Fang Xiu stood up and walked outside.

Yan Ming followed her, he took out a bank card from his pocket and gave it to Fang Xiu, "Aunt Fang, there are 300,000 yuan here, I saved it, you can take it."

"Well, Xiao Yan, thank you, I will definitely return this money to you" Fang Xiu thanked him.

"No need, this money is the cost of taking care of me, my parents left early, you brought me up for more than ten years, and I will pay you back this money"

"Xiao Yan, thank you," she thanked again.

For the next week, Yan Ming and Fang Xiu stayed in the hospital every day, guarding Xu Qingqing.

This is still true today.

Xu Qingqing sat on the hospital bed and waved his hand to greet Yan Ming outside the window.

The illness didn't take away her angelic smile, and she still smiled like a flower.

The nurse was combing her hair, and the wooden comb gently ran through her hair, taking away a few strands of dry hair.

She's been losing her hair these days.

Yan Ming looked at the system, he had been looking at the system mall for the past few days, hoping to find a solution to Xu Qingqing's illness from it.

And the emperor lived up to his wishes, he found it.

[Nine Turns Golden Pill] Function: It can treat all diseases, has the effect of resurrecting the dead, price: 1 million merit points.

This is the cheapest product that Yan Ming found in the system mall that can treat Xu Qingqing's disease.

One million merit points, and now he only has 1,320 merit points in his account, a thousandfold difference.

He only has half a year, and he can save a million merit points in half a year, is this possible?

Yan Ming sighed deeply.

At this moment, the system suddenly gave a hint.

【Holiday Mission: 100 Ghost Night Walk】

Description: July 15 is the Midyear Festival, on this day, the strength of the obsession spirit will be greatly improved, the temperament will also become manic, and countless obsession spirits will wander around the city.

Mission: Maintain the safety of the city and kill the obsession spirits that harass humanity.

Reward: Kill the obsession spirit according to its strength, there are low, medium, high, epic, hell, annihilation, creation seven kinds,

Reward 100, 1,000, 10,000, 100,000, 1,000,000,000, 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,00

Tip: This mission is extremely dangerous, please choose whether to participate or not.

Rewards are valid on the day only.

Yan Ming was shocked, he had always thought that the level difficulty of the obsession spirit was only three levels of low, medium and high, but he didn't expect that there were four levels in the back.

But this task also brought him hope, as long as he had a thousand medium-strength obsession spirits in the mid-year festival, he would have a million merit points.

It's unlikely, but how do you know if you can't do it without trying?

Of course, if he can take shit luck and kill a hell-level obsession spirit, then he will have the money to buy the Nine Turns Golden Pill.

If there is hope, it must not be given up.

Yan Ming counted the days, there are still ten days before the Midyear Festival, as long as you make adequate preparations, you won't have to worry about the merit points.

Qingqing, wait for me, I will definitely save you.

Having made up his mind, Yan Ming said hello to Fang Xiu and walked out of the hospital.

——

The café was filled with soothing music, and the waiter walked to a table with his coffee and served four cups of coffee to each of the four guests.

Fang Xu was stirring the coffee with a spoon, his demeanor was elegant, and his eyes looked at a beautiful woman sitting not far away.

"Well, this beauty has a really good figure, I like it" Fang Xu smiled slightly, very obscene.

Yan Ming said: "Before looking at the beauty, please answer the question about the Midyear Festival first"

Fang Xu said: "Didn't my senior brother tell you? On the day of the Midyear Festival, the strength of all obsession spirits will be enhanced, and many rare evil spirits will also appear, not only that, but there is a high probability that those who die on the day will give birth to obsession spirits."

"What else?" asked Yan Ming.

For these problems, there is no clearer than the three Nianlingmen in front of them.

Ling Xiao took a sip of coffee, "There are also obsession spirits that if they gather too much in a certain area, it will cause an imbalance of yin and yang here, and some unpredictable things will happen, these are particularly dangerous."

"By the way, why are you asking about the Midyear Festival?" Fang Xu looked at Yan Mingdao, who was contemplative.

"In order to punish adultery and eliminate evil, in order to uphold justice"

Fang Xu had a look of disbelief, "But no matter what you're for, you have to be more careful when it comes to the Midyear Festival anyway."

"Well, speaking of which, during this year's Midyear Festival, our Nian Lingmen will send disciples to patrol the city to ensure the safety of the people," Ling Xiao said.

"What? Is it our turn this year? How fast, can't you do it if you don't go?" Fang Xu said in surprise.

Ling Xiao looked at him and said, "Didn't Master say it yesterday during the meeting, you won't fall asleep during the meeting again, right?"

Fang Xu explained: "Ahem, that's not called falling asleep, that's called recuperating."

"You are also the second senior brother of the sect, you want to set an example for other senior brothers and sisters, by the way, the master said, anyone who does not participate in the patrol mission, the male disciple will be whipped a thousand times, and the female disciple will be punished for copying the door rules a hundred times."

"Damn, Master is too female-oriented, right?, why do female disciples just copy the rules, no, men and women must be equal, Master can't treat us so differently, we have to resist!" Fang Xu said righteously.

Chen Sansan, who had not spoken, said: "According to the rules of the sect, if the disciple is dissatisfied with the head elder and his master, he can apply for a heads-up, and the winner has the final say."

It's the first time Yan Ming has heard such strange rules.

"Ahem, what's that, considering that Master and his old man are not in good health, forget it, forget it" Fang Xu waved his hand and smiled.

He didn't dare to really fight with his master, although his master was very old, but if he really wanted to fight, it was usually Fang Xu who was pressed to the ground and rubbed.

"Brother Ling, do you know where to sell goods related to soul removal?" Yan Ming said.

Now his merit point is that he can save it, and he wants to save it to buy a nine-turn gold pill, and the day of July 15 must be extremely dangerous, if he is not fully prepared, it is very likely that the dog will be led.

So the best thing to do is to spend money on talismans and magic weapons to reduce the consumption of merit points.

Ling Xiao said: "You have to go to the outskirts of the city to sell, there is a market there, called Ling Market, you have to be introduced by acquaintances to enter, and the location is very hidden, it is open every three days, you can buy everything in it, as long as you give the bidding money,

Of course, in addition to buying with money, they can also barter"

"Can you take us in, then?"

"This is no problem, it just so happens that our rune paper consumption is too bad during this time, we have to go to buy a few batches of goods, and we also have to prepare the things we need for the Midyear Festival, so let's go together when the time comes."

"Thank you so much"
