Chapter 5 Blood's Work as Medicine

A dark red light came through the crack in the door, and the voice just now sounded again.

"Ah Jiu...... Ah Jiu. ”

The sound was magical, drawing me closer and closer.

By the time I could react, I was standing at the doorway of the door opposite.

The voice became clearer and clearer.

I still remember what the old man said, but my body is not controlled at all.

The hand seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, and with a slight push, the door opened.

The room was empty, except for a table facing the door.

On top of the table, there is an old wooden box.

The red light is overflowing from it.

There's a voice in my head that keeps telling me, turn it on, turn it on!

And then, I did.

The wooden box was not locked, my hand was directly on the lid, and as soon as I wanted to lift it up, I was violently pressed down by an old hand!

"What are you doing! I said I wasn't allowed to enter this room! Can't you understand people! ”

The old man didn't know when he came up, and reprimanded me angrily.

That's when I realized what I had done. But I don't remember how I got into the room.

"I'm sorry, I ......"

Before I could finish speaking, I was dragged away by the old man and thrown directly to the ground outside.

"Get out!"

I really didn't expect that an old man who was skinny and seemed to be able to fall down when the wind blew would have so much strength that it hurt all my bones all over my body. But it was true that I didn't listen to people and went to the wrong place, and I didn't know what to say, so I went back to my room in a gloomy way.

As I stood behind the door, I could clearly hear a strange noise coming from the room opposite, and the voice of the old man speaking in a low voice.

But there was no one on the other side, who was the old man talking to?

In fact, my curiosity was already bursting, but with the lesson just now, I didn't dare to look at what was going on, and went straight to bed.

I casually looked out the window and noticed that there was a very strange pot of flowers on the windowsill.

From the rhizome to the leaves, it is snow-white, but the flowers that can bloom are black and bewitching.

Not to mention, this black and white match is really good-looking.

I wanted to appreciate it, but the bed was too soft and comfortable, and it was completely tailored to my preferences, so I fell asleep after a while. And I didn't even wake up halfway, and I felt like I slept so soundly for the first time in more than 20 years.

I got up early the next morning in good spirits, opened the door, and saw the old man coming out of the opposite room tired. When I looked into his face, I was visibly startled.

He didn't wear sunglasses, and his blood-red eyes were just exposed. The color was strangely red, as if there were not eyes in the eye sockets, but two bright red blood cells.

Probably didn't expect to bump into me, the old man put on his sunglasses in a bit of a panic and hurried downstairs.

I felt more and more that this inn was weird, and I couldn't sit still.

I went downstairs and went directly to Zhang Qian and Yao Jiawen.

"Don't you think this hotel is a bit weird, or ...... Let's change places. ”

"I think it's okay, it's just a little simpler, and it's quiet at night, what's the matter, is your room bad? Or let's change it. Zhang Qian said.

The room was very good, the bed was very comfortable, it was the old man, it was so weird that I felt very uneasy.

But I know that the two of them may not believe it when they say it, they will only think that I am suspicious after experiencing Xie Lanlan's incident. If I say a few more words, the two of them are afraid that they will directly raise money to send me to a psychiatric hospital.

Besides, in just a few days, the patience passed. As long as I don't go into that room, I'll be fine.

In order to prevent me from entering that room at night without my control, I put on headphones when I went to bed. For two nights in a row, nothing happened.

Two days later, my grandfather called me and told me that he was outside our school.

On this day, a complete cat's paw print appeared on my neck.

I hurriedly went downstairs and went out of the hotel, but I saw the old man standing at the mouth of the alley, talking to someone, and I was very excited. It's just that the man is shrouded in shadows, and I can't see clearly. But judging from the figure, it can be seen that he is a tall man, a head taller than the old man.

To be honest, I was really curious about this old man, and I couldn't help but hide in the corner and listen to a few words.

"She made you like this, what do you care about her?!"

"It's not your business, you just have to do your part. Have you done everything I arranged for you? ”

This sound!

Isn't it Forensic Doctor Xiao?!

How does this old man know him?! And listening to the content of this dialogue, the origin is not shallow!

"It's already done, and there shouldn't be a problem." The old man replied.

"Okay, you can go back first."

After Forensic Doctor Xiao finished speaking, he left, and the old man also walked this way. I hurriedly returned to the hotel, pretending to have just come downstairs.

The old man was a little surprised to see me, but he ignored me and went straight inside.

It wasn't far from the school, and I trotted all the way to the school gate, and I saw my grandfather standing under the street lamp with his hands behind his back. Although he tried his best to stand up straight, he could not hide the fatigue around him, and it was estimated that he was tired from the journey.

"Grandpa!"

I yelled and ran over excitedly.

When I saw my grandfather's current appearance, tears welled up in my eyes.

"Grandpa, how could you ......?"

In three years, my grandfather seemed to be twenty years older. His hair was all white, his face was full of wrinkles, and he looked more than eighty years old. Although I'm still a half-person and can't see what is wrong with my grandfather, nine times out of ten it is a lack of qi and blood.

"Hey, he's here to save you."

An unfamiliar voice sounded next to me, and I noticed that there was a middle-aged man in his forties sitting on the flower bed. He was a bit chubby and the lights were dim. At first glance, I thought it was a round bush at the school gate.

"Help me? What's going on? I looked at him puzzled and asked anxiously.

"Dao Chief, don't say it, cough cough ......" Grandpa shook his head to stop, but he couldn't stop coughing as soon as he opened his mouth.

After coughing more than a dozen times in a row, my grandfather was stunned, holding his chest and spurting out a mouthful of blood!

"Grandpa!" I exclaimed, crying and holding my grandfather's shaky figure.

As a medical student, I naturally know that vomiting blood is not a trivial matter.

The Taoist chief also stepped forward, took out a small medicine bottle from his arms, poured a medicine out of it and fed it to his grandfather, and his grandfather's situation eased slightly.

"You're all like this? How long do you want to hide it from her? The Taoist said with a heavy sigh.

Grandpa stopped talking, walked slowly to the flower bed and sat down, and took two puffs of dry tobacco that he never left his hand.

After two clicks, there was another cough.

"Grandpa, you have such a bad cough, don't smoke, it hurts your lungs." I said worriedly. Looking at my grandfather's old and frail appearance, I was so distressed that tears rolled in my eyes.

"It doesn't matter, he doesn't have a few mouthfuls to smoke. Besides, he didn't hurt his lungs, he hurt his heart. The Taoist said, his eyes fell on my bracelet, and he said, "You also know that when you were in your mother's womb, you had an indissoluble bond with that black cat. In order to hide your breath, your grandfather went to Xudu to find this bead of fog and dust, and added one every year to keep you safe. But what you don't know is that this fog and dust bead needs people's painstaking efforts to make medicine to stimulate its effect. ”

"Eighteen is eighteen drops of blood, which is enough to consume all the essence of a person. But this method can only keep you until you are eighteen years old. Three years ago, the black cat came to the door again, and your grandfather really had no choice, so he used his two souls to bless the fog and dust beads, and only then did he protect you for another three years. But his body has reached its limit. I also tried all means to renew your grandfather's life for three years. But now, I can't help it. ”

After hearing the sermon, I was already in tears.

Now I finally understand that my grandfather has been in poor health, all to save me. No matter how quiet the years are, it is my grandfather who is carrying the weight for me!

I should have died before I was born, but my grandfather used his life to save me. If I had known, I would have preferred to die in my mother's womb than my grandfather to pay so much for me!

"Grandpa, why didn't you tell me earlier? Why do so much for me? ”

I crouched down and grabbed my grandfather's withered old hand, tears falling down in large gulps.

"What does it matter if my grandfather lives a few years less, seeing you grow up safely, I am also worthy of your mother's spirit in the sky." Grandpa smiled, reluctantly stood up, looked at Dao Chang and said, "Now that the mark on Xiao Jiu's body has appeared again, you also know what it means." I'm running out of time, so it's better to hurry. ”

Hearing my grandfather say such things made my heart sad. My grandfather was full of me, but I couldn't do anything for him.

The Taoist chief's face instantly became solemn, and he looked at his grandfather and said, "Have you thought about it?" ”

Grandpa nodded, his gaze firm and determined.

My heart was inexplicably uneasy. I always feel that my grandfather has to do something for me, and this decision is a matter of life and death.

It's just that no matter how much I asked, my grandfather wouldn't say. I asked the chief, but the chief was also silent, just said something in a muffled voice.

"Let's go, follow me somewhere."
