Chapter 9: Xu's Father's Illness
In the living room, Xu's father had been waiting for a long time, and when he heard the sound of the door opening, he immediately stood up, and was about to reprimand his daughter for why he came back so late, but found that a young man came with his daughter.
When the words came to his mouth, Father Xu forced it back, he looked at Mu Yang carefully, and similarly, Mu Yang also looked at Father Xu, this is a middle-aged uncle who is over half a hundred years old, his complexion is slightly pale, and at first glance it is caused by a long-term illness without medical treatment, although his body is straight, but he can't hide his trembling hands, his gray beard sets off the hardships of the years, and his cloudy eyes reflect the torment in his heart.
"Who is he?" Father Xu was the first to speak, and naturally asked Xu Lu.
Xu Lu reacted at this time, and immediately explained to his father about Muyang, and told his father what happened today, of course, he omitted a lot of important content, mainly because he didn't want his father to worry about him.
After listening to Xu Lu's introduction, Father Xu breathed a sigh of relief, and then turned back to the hall, and at the same time, led Muyang to the living room: "Thank you for protecting Lulu!" ”
"This is what I should do!" Mu Yang shook his head, his gaze never left Father Xu's body.
Father Xu saw that Muyang had been looking at him, and said with some doubts: "Why does the virtuous nephew keep staring at me?" ”
Mu Yang smiled faintly, his eyes fell on Xu Lu, and after a while, he slowly spoke: "Sister Lulu earns money, she wants to treat her uncle!" ”
Xu Lu's expression trembled, and she almost blurted out: "How do you know, I don't remember I told you these things!" ”
Mu Yang said lightly: "Although I don't know how to heal, but I understand medical science, I think my uncle is cold invades the body, and the poisonous gas enters the bones, causing it to affect the five organs!" ”
Xu Lu was at a loss when she heard this, she didn't understand these things at all, and when she went to the hospital for examination, she never cared about the results of the examination, and always asked if it could be cured.
However, Xu's father nodded slightly, his hospital had told him that it seemed to be the same as what Mu Yang said, but with the current medical technology, it could not be completely cured, it could only be delayed, and the medicinal material machine that delayed the disease was expensive, and Xu Lu's current ability could not afford it at all!
"Uncle!" Muyang looked at Father Xu and said solemnly, "Can the kid ask you a question, I hope you can answer truthfully!" ”
Father Xu nodded.
"Uncle has ever been seriously injured, but this injury has not caused you much discomfort!" Mu Yang opened his mouth word by word, and as Mu Yang's voice fell, Father Xu's eyes were open, looking at the former with some incredulity.
He never mentioned this matter to anyone, even when he went to the hospital, at his attending doctor, he never spoke, feeling that it had nothing to do with his current condition, but how could it be seen by the beggar boy in front of him.
After Father Xu was shocked, he nodded heavily, and then asked suspiciously, "Does this have anything to do with my current illness?" Seeing that Muyang was still standing, he immediately said, "Sit down and talk!" ”
Mu Yang was not polite, and sat down directly and said: "It has a relationship, and it is directly related, my uncle's injury at that time should have been caused by a concussion!" ”
Father Xu recalled for a moment, nodded slightly, and then said slowly: "Working on the construction site, I tripped and fell directly on the cement floor, except for the blood bleeding from the corner of my mouth, it was a pain all over my body, but it didn't affect my work, so I didn't care about it!" ”
"I didn't expect that since then, my body has been getting worse day by day, until now!" Father Xu sighed.
"It shouldn't be a long time in between!" Muyang asked tentatively.
"Seven years!" Father Xu glanced at Xu Lu dotingly and said, "At that time, I wanted to earn high school tuition for Lulu!" Thinking of this, another deep sigh was heard.
Xu Lu glanced at Xu's father with some guilt, her mother left early, and her father depended on her father, and her father also regarded her as a baby, and always left the best for her.
She knew that for her tuition, her father, who was already injured, could do any job, just to get the money and get the tuition for school, but she didn't know that such aggravated labor caused Xu's father's injury to recur faster.
"What the hell is going on?" Father Xu was a little puzzled, "How can it be so serious just to fall?" ”
"Falling backwards, the body collapsed directly to the ground, and the huge impact force passed through the skin into the body, causing damage to the five organs!" Mu Yang explained seriously, "Judging from my uncle's current condition, the most seriously damaged spleen should be the spleen at that time!" ”
The two listened quietly and did not interject.
"The spleen was damaged, the function was reduced, and my uncle often drank alcohol, so that the liver also did not pay attention to the burden during this concussion, which eventually led to moisture entering the body!" Mu Yang continued, "After a long period of dampness, it becomes cold, like maggots on tarsal bones, which is difficult to eradicate, and finally leads to the current situation!" ”
Muyang didn't talk too carefully, which gave them too much worry, just tell them that this disease can be cured!
"Then ......" Xu's father hesitated, and Xu Lu also looked at the light of hope.
Of course, Muyang knew what he was going to say, and then smiled lightly: "I'm sorry, I can't do it tonight?" ”
"Why?" Father Xu asked without thinking, and finally met a person who could explain the cause of his illness, but he couldn't agree, which was a pity.
"I'm still so hungry, I need to refuel!" Mu Yang said apologetically.
"Huh?" Father Xu was a little puzzled, but Xu Lu already knew the reason.
On the way, she had already heard Muyang talking about how to win Liu Daosheng's trust, and she also knew that Muyang only temporarily let Liu Daosheng return to his true colors as a man, but he did not eradicate it, so she knew that Muyang could not be treated now.
"Dad!" Xu Lu opened his mouth, blocking Xu's father from saying the idea of letting Muyang eat, "Your disease has been dragging on for seven years, and you are not in a hurry, since Muyang said that it can be treated, it will definitely be treated for you!" ”
"Yes!" Mu Yang echoed, "I can only grieve my uncle for one more day!" ”
Seeing that his daughter also spoke for Muyang, Xu's father naturally understood that Muyang had some unspeakable secrets, and he no longer insisted on it, but played a round game: "Anyway, I've been sick for seven years, and I don't care about the day of illness, I can resist it!" ”
"Thank you uncle!" Mu Yang smiled apologetically.
Father Xu looked at the two of them and smiled knowingly: "Then I'll go to rest first, and you guys will rest early!" After saying this, Father Xu walked away by himself.
Xu Lu also went to wash up by herself, leaving Muyang to meditate alone in the living room.
When Xu Lu walked out of the bathroom and saw the bored Muyang, she was sure that she would sit next to the latter and not expose anything, so she came to his side cautiously.
"Washed?" Muyang opened his eyes.
"Hmm!" Xu Lu's face turned slightly red, and then he whispered, "I have a question!" ”
"Sister Lulu can ask whatever she wants!" Muyang nodded.
"Seeing that you are teaching those people so well today, what kind of combat power have you achieved!"
Mu Yang was already very clear about the classification of martial artists, but in order not to make Xu Lu feel panicked, he smiled indifferently: "It should be close to a seventh-rank martial artist!" ”
Originally, Mu Yang thought that such an answer was normal, but he didn't expect that Xu Lu sat up directly from the sofa, which scared Mu Yang's whole body.
"Why are you so excited?" Mu Yang asked curiously, "Is the seventh-rank martial artist very powerful!" ”
"Of course!" Xu Lu said in a panic, "The most frequent way out for martial artists is to be bodyguards for some wealthy families, I once heard that the bodyguards of seventh-rank martial artists have an annual income of close to 10 million Huaxia coins!" ”
"Bodyguard!" Mu Yang muttered in his heart, although he didn't know what to do, but there was the word "bao" contained in it, and presumably freedom was also restricted.
In Muyang's opinion, it would be too unworthy to let his life freedom be restricted for the sake of the so-called money, so when Xu Lu revealed this information, he didn't show much interest, but just responded with Oh.
Xu Lu saw that Muyang was not very interested in bodyguards, and immediately showed a strange look, he was a little puzzled, this seventh-rank martial artist was not very interested in money, which was really rare, however, she couldn't force Muyang to do anything, although he came to repay the favor, but he also had the right to choose freely.
