Chapter 141: Choice
Xiaoxiao ate the bun and took the egg to the side. Sister Lin looked at Xiaoxiao with some concern, saying that the dead girl was only three or four years older than Xiaoxiao, how could there be a brute to attack such a young child?
“…… I heard it was her stepfather...... I have been bullying this kid...... I didn't expect to get pregnant. But I'm afraid that this matter will be exposed, so I will kill people and kill people......" Sister Lin said.
When Yuan Jingchen heard this, he was very indignant. "How can there be such a brute? Catch him. ”
Neither Tu Yu nor I spoke.
Tu Yu didn't seem to be affected at all, still eating with relish.
I was so angry and ashamed that I couldn't eat a bite. His mind was full of Tian Tian's scene in the mirror last night. Finally, I put down my chopsticks, said that I was full, and went back to my room.
The only good news is that Wenjing has returned to Qingfeng County. I came to his house at nine o'clock in the morning.
I packed up and set off, and it was just nine o'clock when I arrived at Wenjing's house.
When he saw me, his brow furrowed. "You've been ...... lately Forget it, let's go in first. ”
As he spoke, he opened the door and let me in.
There was a woman sitting in the living room.
He looks to be in his early thirties, with very white skin and mild eyebrows. When she saw me, she stood up and smiled at me.
I didn't expect that the master Wen Jing said would be a woman.
is still a woman with such an outstanding temperament.
She is not like Lu Qing, she has amazing facial features. But it's a very durable type, and the more you look at it, the more flavorful it becomes.
"This is Senior Sister Qian Ning, this is my friend, Yang Dong."
"Hello Miss Qian. Excuse me, you've come all the way. I said.
Qian Ning smiled gently, "Since you are Wenjing's friend, you don't need to be so polite, just call me senior sister." ”
"Hello, senior sister."
"I came on a conditional basis, I hope that if you are okay, when you come out of Lethe, bring me a fruit of the Soul Rejuvenation Grass." Channing said.
I was stunned for a moment, but Wen Jing was not too surprised, obviously he had known it for a long time.
"No problem, if I can come back safely." There is no obligation to treat me for free.
I also understand that I have a special eight characters on my back, and I have to go through the trip to Lechuan.
"I'll check your pulse first." Channing asked me to sit down, stretched out his arm, and after a careful examination, sighed. "I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't tell what kind of poison this is."
I was so disappointed that I didn't say anything for a while.
Wen Jing was surprised: "Senior sister, even you can't diagnose it?" ”
Qian Ning frowned and asked me to give her some blood. Then he said he wanted me to wait for the results.
I was disappointed, but I wasn't unprepared. I'm still very grateful to Channing.
When it was almost noon, Qian Ning came out of the room, but called Wen Jing in. After a while, Wenjing came out and said that the poison could be solved, but the sequelae were more troublesome.
Wen Jing looked at me very seriously, "You have to make your own decision on this matter." If you detoxify, your lifespan may be very degraded. Senior sister, their sect has a medicine that can cure all kinds of poisons, but as I said earlier, it will cause very serious consequences. You may only have a dozen years to live. ”
That's something I never expected.
When I didn't have a choice, I always wanted to forget about poisoning and stealing knives. It was as if I could leave it behind me, and I would not be able to face it. I've always been passive and reluctant to make choices.
But now, Wenjing puts that choice in front of me.
One is to steal the scabbard and bring it to the old lady in exchange for an antidote.
The second is to ask Senior Sister Qian Ning to help me detoxify in exchange for more than ten years of life.
The third is to keep waiting, betting that the old lady will not really ask for my name.
My mind was a mess and my mind was in chaos. I really don't know what to choose. I don't want to die, but I don't want to be a thief who steals. I don't want to do things I don't want to do under the coercion of poison. What's more, if I steal something, will the old lady give me an antidote? No, I don't think he will.
I took a deep breath and my mouth kept shaking.
All sorts of thoughts came flooding back.
But I really don't want to die.
Wen Jing looked at me silently and said in a low voice, brother, I support whatever decision you make.
I don't know what to do.
Channing came out of the house and waited for my reply. I asked her if the fruit of the Soul Restoration Grass could relieve the poison caused by the antidote.
Qian Ning shook his head: "I don't know either." The fruit of the Soul Restoration Grass claims to be able to live the flesh and bones of the dead, maybe it can, maybe it can't. But what I want to tell you in advance is that this antidote is a poison that uses your body's vitality to resist the body, and after taking it, your body's metabolism will be many times faster than that of ordinary people. That is, someone else's decades are only a few years on you. Do you understand? ”
I don't understand.
I didn't listen to her pharmacology at all, and my mind was full of the fruit of the Soul Restoration Grass, and I was afraid that it wouldn't be able to save me.
So I'm going to pick one of these results.
I said I had to think about it.
Channing nodded understandingly.
I don't know how I got back in a daze. I was going to tell Wen Jing about Longchi, but I forgot about it. may be considerate of me, Wenjing didn't say much.
Back at the inn, I lay on the bed and somehow fell asleep.
In my dream, I dreamed of Tian Tian again.
How she was caught, how she was killed, it was as if I had witnessed it. I woke up in a sweat, and a thought suddenly flashed in my mind, since I am going to die, why don't I drag Lu Jiayang to die together. Why should such animals live in the world?
I don't know why I thought it that way, but the thought was so deep that it almost seemed engraved in my head. I stood up and walked out, without thinking that Tu Yu was standing next to the corridor holding his mobile phone and playing games. When he saw me come out, he handed me ten dollars and asked me to buy him a pack of cigarettes.
"Hurry up, hurry up." He urged.
I was sweating profusely, pinched the money and walked out.
When I got out of the inn door, I was covered in sweat. The idea of killing is much less so. I myself was taken aback by my own thoughts. Suspiciously, I walked towards the nearest supermarket, and when I bought cigarettes for Tu Yu, I remembered that I forgot to ask him what he wanted to buy. I bought the pandas he usually smokes, and I also bought myself a bag.
At the time of checkout, the boss was watching the anti-Japanese drama intently. In the play, the protagonist's relatives were retaliated against by the invaders, and their deaths were extremely miserable.
I was holding a cigarette and was about to leave, when a thought flashed through my mind, and then it dawned on me.
What happened to Tian Tian I saw in my dream was not the scene I saw in the bronze mirror before?
The weather had turned cool in the evening, and the breeze was blowing, and I shivered vividly.
At this moment, I couldn't be clearer, it was the bronze mirror that affected me.
