Chapter 12: The Past
Liuying held a human skin mask in her hand, watched the ghost doctor's originally plain-looking face change to a Maitreya Buddha-like face, and smiled: "It's still comfortable to look like this." ”
Ziyi and Chu Shibei on the side watched as the ghost doctor took off his disguise one by one, and finally closed his jaw that was about to fall to the ground.
The two glanced at each other, and there was a taste of sympathy for each other. The ghost doctor has been treating them with a false face for the past half a month!
"Of course, the old man's appearance is the best among the elderly! Girl, you don't know that when I think that if you are really dead, I will almost never see you again, and no one will make trouble with me anymore and dare to burn my beard. If it weren't for Yama's time, maybe we would have been separated forever by yin and yang......" At first, the ghost doctor was still talking to Liuying with a hippie smile, but then he began to choke, and even hugged Liuying and cried.
When Ziyi heard this, she immediately said: "Childe is not dead, Miss ......"
"Yama, that kid is going to ......" When the ghost doctor heard Ziyi's words, he immediately frowned, and was interrupted in the middle of speaking.
"I know, he's not dead, he's just hurt, he told me to go to him, and he told me everything." Ryuhotaru had reddened eyes and was emotionally depressed.
The ghost doctor came back to his senses, and couldn't help but be a little glad that the words just now were not spoken without his brain, otherwise it would have hurt Liu Hotaru a lot.
noticed that there was another person at the scene, and the three of them were emotional. Liuying looked at the man who was standing tall not far away and asked, "...... are you?"
"The girl is fine, the little student Chu Shibei is now the apprentice of the ghost doctor Mr. Wen, a closed disciple." Chu Shibei leaned over to Liuying.
As soon as these words came out, the three people at the scene were shocked!
"Chu Shibei, you are the seventh prince of Great Chu, oh no, it should be King Yu now." Liuying looked at Chu Shibei meaninglessly, "The good prince doesn't do it, but in my small courtyard, he still claims to be a closed disciple of the ghost doctor, I have never heard of a ghost doctor and a closed disciple like you, right, old man?" ”
"That's right, old man, when did I take you as an apprentice? Make it clear. ”
Since stepping into this door, Chu Shibei had expected such a scene, but when he really reached this point, he was still a little unsure.
"As the Seventh Prince of Great Chu, I have been subjected to all kinds of suppression and assassination since I was born. Thirteen years ago, when I was six years old, the palace went to Nanshan Temple outside the city once a year to pray for blessings and was assassinated on the way back.
"Who knew that those people seemed to be coming for us, in a panic, my mother and I were chased by bandits and broke away from the team, my mother died tragically under the thief's knife to protect me, and I was seriously injured and dying.
"That day, when I was unconscious, a middle-aged man rescued me, treated my wounds, and when I woke up again, I was back in the palace. When I asked the attendant, I learned that I was saved by a ghost doctor.
"Master, do you really not remember me? You also left me a letter, telling me not to be obsessed with revenge, and to live is the most important thing! With that, Chu Shibei took out an old yellowed letter from his pocket and handed it to the ghost doctor.
Really...... It is indeed his handwriting.
It also says that if the royal family doesn't want him, the ghost doctor will accept him, let him be a closed disciple, and raise him for the rest of his life.
Seeing this, the ghost doctor couldn't help but think of the six-year-old milk baby's soft and glutinous and very cute appearance, which really made people want to protect it.
But I didn't expect the ghost doctor to forget about this matter as soon as it passed.
