In the early morning, the warm sunlight shone on Lu Hao's body through the window, Lu Hao opened his eyes, stared at the ceiling for a while, and then began to cough violently, even if he tried his best to suppress it, the coughing still woke Xiaolian up. 『』

In a few months, Xiaolian's belly has begun to show her pregnancy, and it is obvious that she is pregnant with a fetus.

"You're alright, don't take any more of the medicine the doctor gave you." After Xiaolian woke up, she did it, and said while gently patting Lu Hao's back.

"No, it's okay to cough for a while, although the medicine given by the doctor can reduce some pain, but the side effects are also very large, which will damage the body's functions, the more you eat, the worse the body will collapse." I still want to see my child born, so I don't want to take those medicines. Lu Hao coughed violently, shook his head and said.

"Then it's not a way for you to hold on so strongly, or we can go to other doctors to see, that doctor can't cure you, and other doctors may have a way." When Xiaolian heard Lu Haozhen say, tears began to roll in her eyes.

"It's useless, I have my own number of diseases, there is no problem with the doctor's treatment, he is already the best doctor that Director Zhou can find for me, these doctors can't cure me, and other doctors don't have any hope of curing my disease. Ahem. Lu Hao said as he coughed violently again and again.

"Then what to do, then wait for death like this, do we let our children be born without a father." Xiaolian said as she covered her face sadly and cried.

Lu Hao shook his head, held Xiaolian in his arms, stroked her hair, and said softly: "You don't have to worry, I, Lu Hao, am not so easy to succumb, although ordinary doctors can't treat my disease, but some people can cure it, don't worry, as long as there is a glimmer of life, I will fight for it."

"Who, who can cure you? Didn't you say that the doctor that Director Zhou introduced to you was already the best? Xiaolian raised her head, her face full of hope, and asked with some surprise.

Lu Hao gently wiped away the tears on Xiaolian's face, shook his head and said: "It's a group of special people, a group of people with special abilities, I will meet them today, I will persuade them to let them cure my illness, I always have to watch my child be born and raise him to adulthood." ”

Lu Hao said, gently stroking Xiaolian's bulging belly, his eyes were soft, full of love and hope.

A few hours later, in an office on the top floor of the Secret Service.

Chang Zi'an smiled at Lu Hao, who was sitting across the table, and said, "Mr. Lu, I'm afraid I didn't expect to see me, right?" I've been your hostage before. ”

From the very beginning, when he saw Chang Zi'an and his party, Lu Hao recognized Chang Zi'an and Zhao Feiying, and his face was full of surprise.

"I didn't expect that a star monk would notice me at that time, and I was really a little arrogant when I thought about it." Lu Hao smiled bitterly and shook his head and said.

Hearing Lu Hao say this, Chang Zi'an waved his hand and said: "Mr. Lu misunderstood, it was an accident at the time, Zhao Feiying and I didn't go for you, at that time, Zhao Feiying and I didn't know each other, but were afraid of each other, so we became Mr. Lu's hostage very cooperatively." ”

Hearing Chang Zi'an say this, Lu Hao still shook his head with a wry smile and said: "In this way, my luck is not bad, I didn't think about hurting the hostages, otherwise it would not be the two of you who are in danger, but me." ”

Chang Zi'an nodded with a smile and said, "Let's not talk about the previous things, Mr. Lu, with your intelligence, you must understand why we are looking for you, right?" ”

Lu Hao nodded and said, "I can probably guess this, you should be the same as the person from the Blood Sacrifice Society, for the picture in my hand." ”

"Mr. Lu is really smart, but we are not sure if that map is what we are looking for, so can Mr. Lu show us that map." Chang Zi'an also nodded, looked at Lu Hao with a smile and said.

"You can see the map or hand over the map, but I want to make a deal with the chief of the section with this map, what do you think?" Lu Hao coughed lightly and said.

Chang Zi'an frowned slightly, looked at Lu Hao, and asked a little in a group: "Deal?" I don't know what Mr. Lu wants to trade for that map? ”

"Ahem" Lu Hao coughed lightly a few times, stretched out his finger and pointed to his nose and said, "My life." I want to trade that map for my life, I'm terminally ill, and the best doctor in the world can't save me, but you star monks can, so this map is my only hope, and I want to trade it for my life. ”

Chang Zi'an was silent for a moment and nodded, he had already expected Lu Hao's condition, so he nodded and said: "Mr. Lu, first of all, we have to establish two things, the first is whether the map in your hand is what we are looking for, and the second is, as far as I know, the Star Monk has the power to surpass ordinary people, but he is still not an immortal, so we must first determine your condition and see if we can save it." With these two things in mind, let's move on to the rest. ”

"Of course, there is no problem with this, I will give you some information for you to judge the authenticity of the map, and those people from the Blood Sacrifice Society found me based on the information I provided." Lu Hao nodded and said.

Then he took a leather bag from Xiaolian's hand, took out a Wen Jiàn clip from the leather bag and handed it to Chang Zi'an.

After Chang Zi'an took the Wen Jiàn clip, he flipped through it casually, and handed it to Su Liuqing beside him, and then said to Lu Hao with a smile: "Mr. Lu, wait a minute, let's go and determine whether it is true or false." ”

"Please." Lu Hao coughed and nodded.

Chang Zi'an and the others came to another office, and waited for everyone to read it before asking, "How is it, is this what we are looking for?"

"I think it's just true, although Lu Hao didn't provide a complete map, but the things he gave included the words Wuxiang Orientation Map, which is a special word for the ancient star monks, many of them have been lost, and few people in the modern star monks recognize them, and I also knew some ancient star cultivation words by chance, which Lu Hao couldn't fake as a mortal. Tang Xiaobao was the first to say after reading it.

"That's right, I also think it's true, judging from the information provided by Lu Hao, it is completely in line with the rumored description of the five-elephant azimuth map." Xuan Quxian also agreed with Tang Xiaobao's opinion after reading it.

Chang Zi'an nodded and said to everyone: "Although I don't know those words, I can feel that it is what we are looking for." "

Seeing that everyone had seen it, and no one objected, Chang Zi'an said to Zhao Feiying: "Zhao Feiying remembers that you said that Lu Hao's terminal illness can be treated, you go and see if it is possible for us to treat Lu Hao's disease, and then exchange it for the five-elephant azimuth map." ”

Zhao Feiying didn't speak, but nodded, and went to the room where Lu Hao and Xiaolian were, and after a while, she came back, looked at everyone and shook her head and said: "Lu Hao's body is no longer good, if I said that when I met him before, I might still be able to save him, but now it is completely impossible, he is terminally ill, and I can't do anything about it." ”

Hearing Zhao Feiying say this, everyone looked at each other, but they didn't expect that the five-elephant orientation map was close at hand, but they had no chips to exchange.

"I'll confirm it again, if it's really as Zhao Feiying said, Lu Hao is hopeless, then we'll tell him the truth and let him put forward other conditions." Xuan Quxian stood up and said.

Chang Zi'an nodded in agreement, and everyone returned to the room where Lu Hao and Xiaolian were.

After inspecting Lu Hao's body, Xuan Quxian shook his head at Chang Zi'an, indicating that he was indeed powerless.

Chang Zi'an looked at Lu Hao and said helplessly: "Mr. Lu, we are very willing to make this deal with you, your map does look like something we are looking for, we are very willing to help you heal, but I am sorry that your body is terminally ill, and we have nothing to do." Why don't Mr. Lu put forward another condition. ”

Originally, after hearing Chang Zi'an's previous words, Xiaolian was already happy, but Chang Zi'an's later words directly made Xiaolian cry.

After listening to Chang Zi'an's words, Lu Hao's face turned horrible and he was silent for a long time before he said, "Mr. Chang, is there really no way?" You know, my child is about to be born, and I don't want him to be without a father. ”

Hearing Lu Hao say this, Chang Zi'an was speechless, but turned his head to look at Xuan Quxian and Zhao Feiying, after the two glanced at each other, Zhao Feiying said: "If we send him star power for a long time, it may prolong his life, and if we use the power of the cup fragment spirit to clean his meridians, bones and blood, or control his condition in the short term, of course, this is just a long time, and it can last for three years at most, this is the limit." ”

"Three years, you're saying you can extend my life by three years?" When Lu Hao heard Zhao Feiying say this, his originally lowered head suddenly raised and asked.

"The longest is three years, and the shortest is one and a half years, but we need to instill star power in you, and Chang Zi'an needs you to use the power of the machine spirit to clean the meridians. As for completely healing your body, even Xingzun can't do anything about it, unless we find the complete cup throwing fragment. Zhao Feiying nodded and said.

"Three years, a year and a half, that's enough for me to see the child born." Lu Hao nodded, and then asked, "What are the cup fragments you are talking about?" Could that thing save me? ”

Chang Zi'an and Xuan Quxian and the others glanced at each other, Chang Zi'an nodded and didn't speak, but Xuan Quxian said to Lu Hao: "Don't hide it, Mr. Lu, the reason why we want the map in your hand is to find the fragments of the cup." There are five pieces of cup throwing fragments, Brother Chang already has one, and there are four pieces that are missing, if we find the other four pieces of cup throwing fragments, we can get the cup throwing, as far as I know, the cup throwing can cure your illness 100%, even if we bring other pieces it will be good for you to prolong your life. ”
