Time is the easiest thing to disappear.

The day passed quickly.

During this time, Li Changjing stayed in the room and didn't go anywhere, and when he was sleeping, he secretly took out the Buddhist beads and looked at them many times, but he couldn't see why, let alone know what the Buddhist beads were for. He secretly made up his mind that after seeing the illness of the young lady of the Huo family, he immediately rushed back to the town to find Sister Yuanyang.

During this period, Liu Qingtan came to him twice, but both of them brought him food, and later she should have a lot of things to do, so she changed it to let someone else deliver it.

On the second night, just after nightfall, Liu Qingtan came to him again, saying that he was going to take him to see Miss now, because Miss She's illness could no longer be delayed.

However, before going, Liu Qingtan told Li Changjing about some things that happened outside, first of all, the thief who stole things yesterday was very cunning and was not caught, it seemed that he was still in Huo's house and did not go out, and his identity was not identified.

However, the stolen thing was confirmed, it was a box in Mrs. Huo's room, which contained a pill sent by the Xu family, and I heard that it was made of hundreds of precious medicinal materials, which had the effect of curing all diseases and prolonging life.

"By the way, there is still a week, which is Mrs. Huo's eightieth birthday." Liu Qingtan said worriedly: "Our Mrs. Huo is a person with a serious habit of cleanliness, which is almost known to everyone in the entire Daye City, she requires everything to be neat and beautiful, for this reason, the entire villa of the Huo family has been replaced with expensive furniture decoration, and everyone in the Huo family, regardless of status, must also be uniformly dressed, otherwise it will be regarded as disrespectful to Mrs. Huo, which will lead to very serious consequences." ”

Li Changjing suddenly realized, no wonder Liu Qingtan has always worn professional clothes, it seems that she doesn't like to wear them, but she has to wear them.

"Your old lady Huo is too willful." Li Changjing shook his head, "Sure enough, the world of the rich, we don't understand." ”

"Our Mrs. Huo is indeed willful." Liu Qingtan said proudly: "But she also has the qualifications to be willful!" ”

"Don't you know, fifty years ago, the Huo family was just a small family at the bottom of Daye City, and the reason why it can have today's scale is all due to Mrs. Huo alone!" Liu Qingtan's face was full of admiration, "Mrs. Huo is top in knowledge, experience, and business acumen, it can be said that without her, there would be no Huo family today, so the Huo family respects her very much, Mrs. Huo's words are orders, and no one can ignore them." ”

Li Changjing nodded thoughtfully, it seems that this Mrs. Huo is the head of the family.

"That's not right." Li Changjing thought for a moment and asked, "Isn't it a happy thing for you Mrs. Huo's birthday, why don't you look happy at all?" ”

Liu Qingtan bit her lip, stopped talking, and finally just sighed and walked towards the door, "You go with me to see Miss first, after seeing her, you should understand everything." ”

————

On the third floor of the Huo family villa, there is a quiet room, there is an independent courtyard outside the room, the courtyard is not big, only dozens of squares, but it is surrounded by all kinds of flowers and plants, or purple or blue, or green or pink, all kinds of colors, colorful, a little farther away, a rocking chair is designed, the rocking chair is crawling above the Teng vine, like a willow slowly hanging, the breeze will dance softly, giving people a very comfortable feeling.

This is the exclusive courtyard of the third lady of the Huo family, and there is an antique three-character door plaque hanging on the door: Acacia House.

Li Changjing followed behind Liu Qingtan, all the way to the door of Acacia Residence, as soon as he opened the door, Li Changjing smelled a peculiar smell, very fragrant, it should be emitted by the dazzling flowers and plants inside, but Li Changjing did not like this smell, but was a little disgusted.

To Li Changjing's surprise, the decoration in the room was actually very simple, only a coffee table and a wooden bed, there was a dresser next to the bed, and on the side of the dresser was a one-person high screen, the screen was carved with lotus patterns, and the style of the whole room was classical, which did not match the gold and splendor outside.

Outside the room, there was the courtyard full of flowers and plants, Li Changjing looked from afar, and found a slender figure sitting on the rocking chair, gently swaying in the night, very quiet and lonely.

Liu Qingtan stepped forward and shouted softly: "Miss? ”

The person in the rocking chair hummed and replied, "Qingtan, are you back?" ”

Liu Qingtan glanced at Li Changjing, nodded and said, "Miss, I brought that doctor, you come in first, it's windy outside." ”

The rocking chair stopped shaking, but the person above did not come down, and asked from afar, "Where is the person, can you trust?" ”

Liu Qingtan glanced at Li Changjing again, gritted his teeth, and then said firmly: "I met when I went to buy medicinal materials, and I am a very good person and can be trusted." ”

Then Li Changjing saw that a woman jumped down from the rocking chair gently, very tall, but with a very slender figure, even if she was wearing a very tight cotton coat outside, she still didn't feel bloated.

The woman walked back to the room, and through the light, Li Changjing found that in addition to wearing cotton clothes, she also wore a veil on her face, only her eyes were exposed, and her hands were wearing gloves, not even a little skin was exposed.

The woman looked at Li Changjing for a while, and after finding that he was only a young man in his early twenties, her eyes showed a look of disappointment, and she actually issued an eviction order on the spot, "Qingtan, you let this gentleman go back, I'm tired and want to rest." ”

Liu Qingtan was a little helpless, and said to Li Changjing: "Miss doesn't seem to want to see anyone, I'll send you back first." ”

Who knew that Li Changjing shook his head, looked at the woman sitting on the bed, and said in an astonishing voice: "Miss Huo, believe me, I can cure your disease." ”

The woman stiffened for a moment, as if she was a little excited, but soon regained her composure and sighed: "In the past few years, many doctors have said this, but in the end, none of them can help me. ”

"I know what disease you have." Li Changjing said softly: "Is it that the whole body seems to be covered with something like measles, usually tired when walking, unable to exert energy, and the whole body is sore when sleeping at night?" ”

The woman Huo Di raised her head, stared at Li Changjing tightly, and asked Liu Qingtan, "You told him?" ”

Liu Qingtan hurriedly shook his head in denial, and at the same time looked at Li Changjing in surprise, not knowing why he knew the symptoms so clearly.

"My sister used to have this disease too." Li Changjing sat down on the chair next to him, and said in a calm tone: "You have the same smell as her, of course it's not a smell, I don't know how to describe it, if you are not careful, you can't smell it at all." ”

"Where is your sister now?" The woman stood up from the bed, folded her hands, and asked excitedly, "Is she cured?" ”

Li Changjing scratched his head, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, after all, Shui'er was taken away by that Xu Huaitian, and I don't know if she ate the Tianji line, if she eats it, the disease will definitely be cured, not for anything else, because the Tianji line was given to him by Sister Yuanyang, and Sister Yuanyang said that it can cure Shui'er's disease, then it must be possible.

"My sister's illness has been basically cured." Li Changjing replied truthfully, "But I don't know how sick you are, Miss Huo, you have to see the symptoms." ”

Miss Huo glanced at Liu Qingtan, as if asking her opinion, Liu Qingtan bit her lip, decided to believe Li Changjing, nodded heavily, and said: "Miss, don't worry, he is not a liar, he will definitely cure your illness." ”

"That's ......"

Miss Huo finally relaxed, and after instructing Liu Qingtan to lock the door, she hesitated to take off her cotton clothes, revealing her delicate body wearing only a thin shirt inside.

With just one glance, Li Changjing confirmed that this Miss Huo's illness was indeed exactly the same as Shui'er's, her whole body was covered with that kind of measles-like thing, and when she first saw it, it was indeed a little oozing, but he had seen a lot, so he behaved very calmly, and there was no disgust or disgust in his eyes, which made Miss Huo feel a little more good for him.

"Miss Huo, I don't know when did your illness start?" Li Changjing asked.

"Mr. Li doesn't need to be outside, just tell me to be gentle." Miss Huo was wearing a veil on her face, and she couldn't see what the expression was, she groaned for a while, as if she was reminiscing, and said slowly: "If I'm not mistaken, it should have been three years." ”

"I don't know how I got it." Huo Qingrou's eyes struggled a little, and she said in a trembling voice: "In the first year, I only had those things on my hands, and in the second year, my feet were my feet, and in the third year, it spread to every inch of my body......" She stretched out her hand and gently took off the veil, Li Changjing immediately found that this Huo Qingrou looked very young, about 25 years old, similar to Liu Qingtan, and at the same time extremely beautiful, it was the typical melon seed face, with a tall nose and a pair of eyes with flattery, which was very eye-catching, but it was a pity that Miss Huo's face was white and tender on one side, But the other side is rough and dull yellow, and covered with that familiar pockmark, which looks very weird.

"Miss's illness has deteriorated very seriously in the last six months." Liu Qingtan said bitterly: "When I left, Miss's face was still fine, but it has only been less than two months, and half of her face is like this......"

"It's okay, Qingtan." Huo said softly and calmly: "Maybe this is fate, after so much despair, I have already seen it." ”

"Li Changjing, you must cure Miss's illness!" Liu Qingtan's eyes were red, and he said with a crying voice: "If you can't do it, I, I'll ......"

"Don't worry." Li Changjing stood up and said with a solemn face: "In one year at the latest, I can completely cure Miss Huo's illness." ”

"A year?" Liu Qingtan said anxiously: "Since it can be cured, why should it be a year, can't it be faster?" ”

"There is no such thing as curing a disease, and I can't rush it." Li Changjing said helplessly: "I have a medicine that can cure Miss Huo's disease, but it takes just a year for this medicine to grow." ”

"A year is too long." Liu Qingtan's whole person seemed to be lost and depressed, and muttered to himself: "There is still a week before the old lady's birthday, how can the young lady go to meet people then?" ”

"One year, just one year." Huo Qingrou was an optimistic person, she breathed a long sigh of relief, and said softly: "For me, being able to cure the disease is already the best result, and nothing else matters." ”

"No, you can't!" Liu Qingtan said sharply: "Miss, you are the heir handpicked by the old lady, if you can't cure this disease, then the heir will definitely become the second master!" ”

Miss Huo shook her head and said indifferently: "Even if the second brother treats me badly, he is the Huo family, and there is nothing bad about the heir becoming him." ”

Li Changjing listened silently beside him, although he only said a few words, he could also hear some complicated relationships from it, and it seemed that the splendid Huo family was not so peaceful as it seemed on the surface.

"Miss Huo, I have another way, maybe I can cure you in a short time." Li Changjing thought for a while and said something amazing.

Liu Qingtan stiffened, and then immediately became excited: "What method?" What to do? Need money or what? ”

"Nothing is needed." Li Changjing shook his head and looked at Huo Qingrou, "I only have one request, that is, if I cure your illness, then please send me a Buddha bead." ”

Miss Huo was stunned for a moment, and immediately said happily: "Yes, Qingtan mentioned this matter to me, the Buddha bead is in my grandmother's, and it shouldn't be difficult for me to go to her to come over." ”

Li Changjing breathed a sigh of relief, although the Buddha bead was on him, but with Miss Huo's promise, then the Buddha bead was equivalent to his.

"Secretary Liu, please go and fill half a bowl of water, remember that the water should be warm." Li Changjing admonished.

Liu Qingtan nodded, didn't ask more, turned around and left the room, and within a few minutes, he came back with a bowl of water again.

Li Changjing took the bowl of water and asked Miss Huo and Liu Qingtan to wait in the room, he came to the courtyard outside with the bowl, with his back to the door, and then stretched out his right index finger and stared at the fingertips intently.

The next moment, there was a sudden throbbing pain in the heart, and then the whole right arm began to get hot, and after a while, a drop of blood glowing with a faint golden light flowed out of the fingertips, and slowly dripped into the bowl.

After doing all this, Li Changjing's eyes suddenly went dark, and the whole person almost couldn't stand up and fell, and his whole body strength seemed to be drained, making him sweat on his back.

"Oh my God." Li Changjing was surprised: "Forcing out a drop of Sister Yuanyang's soul blood actually has such a big sequelae." He steadied himself, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and then returned to his room with the bowl.

Liu Qingtan was a little surprised to see Li Changjing's improvement so bad, and asked him what was wrong, as if he was several years older.

Li Changjing smiled, didn't say anything, handed the bowl to Huo Qingrou, and urged: "Drink this bowl of water." ”

Miss Huo looked at the bowl of water and found that there was nothing in it, so she hesitated for a moment, then took the bowl and slowly drank the water inside.

"Mr. Li, what did you add to the water?" Huo was surprised gently: "How do you feel so sweet...... but before she finished speaking, her whole body was like an electric shock, and she fell softly.

Li Changjing knew that this would be the case, so he hurriedly went up to support him.

Liu Qingtan was frightened, and asked with a face: "Li Changjing, what did you drink for Miss, if something happens to her, I can ...... it."

"Don't make a noise!" Li Changjing shouted: "Help me help her to the bed." ”

Liu Qingtan saw that Li Changjing's expression was serious, not joking, so he had to suppress all doubts and carry Huo Qinggently to the bed.

"She's fine, she's just asleep." After Li Changjing covered Huo lightly with the quilt, he said to Liu Qingtan: "At the latest, the measles on her body will subside in three days at the latest, but it will take some time for the disease to be completely cured." ”

Liu Qingtan looked at Huo Qingrou and found that her face was ruddy, her breathing was stable, and her body temperature was normal, and she was indeed sleeping, so she breathed a sigh of relief.

Of course, Liu Qingtan was only skeptical of Li Changjing's words, after all, they had found so many doctors and taken so many medicines in the past three years, but they were all helpless against this disease, so she didn't believe that Li Changjing could cure the disease with a bowl of water, otherwise it would be too unacceptable.

"If nothing else, I'll go back first." Li Changjing held back his strong dizziness and said to Liu Qingtan: "After Miss Huo wakes up, you will notify me again, and I will tell you what to do next when the time comes." ”

Liu Qingtan saw that Li Changjing's steps were unsteady, as if he was seriously ill, and couldn't help but worry: "Do you want me to send you?" ”

"No need." Li Changjing rubbed his eyebrows, "I remember the road, you stay and take care of Miss Huo." ”

After Li Changjing left Huo Qingrou's room, he slowly walked back to his room according to the route in his memory.

"Sister Yuanyang didn't say that after extracting the soul blood, there will be such a big sequelae." Li Changjing covered his head, only feeling that his head was heavy and light, as if he had overdosed on blood and was in shock, his head was buzzing and throbbing, it was like riding a roller coaster.

"It seems that I can't fight the idea of soul blood anymore in the future." Li Changjing sighed and walked slowly forward holding on to the fence of the aisle.

But suddenly, he found that a large group of people appeared in the entrance of the corridor in front of him, there were more than ten of them, all of them were men in black suits, led by two people, one was an old man in his seventies, skinny, with a bent back, his face was full of wrinkles, he was so old next year, but his eyes were as sharp as eagles, revealing a clear light.

The other person, who was tall and unusually handsome, stood there straight, and did nothing, already giving people a strong sense of oppression.

Xu Huaitian!

Li Changjing's eyelids jumped, and his intuition told him that he had to escape immediately, but before he could take a step, the old man in front of him had already laughed suspiciously, "Huaitian, is this kid stealing the medicine that the old man gave to Mrs. Huo?" ”

Xu Huaitian carried it with one hand and said expressionlessly: "It should be." ”

The next moment, a sudden change occurred!

Li Changjing only felt that there was a flower in front of him, and the old man had come to the front in an instant, a dry hand on his shoulder, and said in a dark voice: "Come with me obediently, you can avoid the pain of flesh and skin." ”

Li Changjing was silent, and just handed out a punch!

His punch with all his strength was supposed to be able to knock a normal person five meters away, but the old man in front of him stretched out a palm and grabbed his fist, which actually made his whole body unable to move, and the punch he hit became non-threatening and soft.

Li Changjing shouted, pulled back his fist hard, and handed it out again!

In the air, I only heard the old man sneering: "You are Li Changjing?" My Miss Xu family had a marriage contract with you back then? You don't even have a road tire, do you deserve it? ”

The old man smiled and punched lightly.

Li Changjing spit out a mouthful of blood, and the whole person flew out seven or eight meters upside down, collapsing the wooden fence next to him for a long time along the way, making a deafening loud noise, many people of the Huo family heard the movement, and they all ran here, and after a while, both sides of the aisle were already crowded with people, and dozens of curious eyes swept over him.

Li Changjing turned over with difficulty on the ground, gritted his teeth and stood up, his chest felt like he had been hit by a hammer, and it was painful to move a little, needless to say, he knew that his ribs were broken.

He shook his head, his vision clearer, but his body was already shaky, and blood kept pouring out of his throat, and he couldn't stop.

"What's the matter, what are you yelling about!?"

A gentle voice came from afar, and after a while, the crowd consciously divided into two sides, and a man in his early thirties walked in, with a soft face, fair skin, and slightly thin lips, although the overall look was very handsome, but it lacked the breath of sunshine, giving people a dark and cold feeling, and the outline was actually three or four points similar to that Huo Qingrou.

"I didn't expect it to be Xu Zhenhai and Uncle Xu." The man looked at Li Changjing without emotion, and then arched his hand towards the old man, and said respectfully: "I don't know what kind of wind is blowing tonight, and it actually blows your old man here?" ”

"Second Master Huo is good." The old man named Xu Zhenhai returned the salute and said with a smile: "It's not a big deal, it's just to catch a thief." As he spoke, he pointed at Li Changjing, "This kid stole the Yanyang Dan that the old man gave to Mrs. Huo, and now he is planning to ask him to hand it over." ”

That Huo Er Ye was shocked: "Is it the legendary miracle medicine that can prolong life?" ”

Xu Zhenhai nodded and said with a smile: "That medicine, the old man spent a lot of money to refine two, and the one stolen by this kid is already the last one." ”

"I see." Second Master Huo's face was gloomy, and he said to Li Changjing: "Since it is a congratulatory gift from Uncle Xu to my grandmother, why don't you hurry up and hand it over?" Do you know how important that medicine is to my grandma? ”

Li Changjing's face turned red, and he said loudly: "I didn't steal your medicine!" ”

"Dare to be hard-mouthed." Xu Zhenhai took a step forward and came directly to Li Changjing, grabbed his neck with his left hand, grabbed his collar with his right hand, and tore it hard, his entire shirt was torn open in an instant, revealing a fiery red Buddha bead hanging around his neck.

"This bead belongs to my grandmother!" Huo Er Ye was surprised: "I just saw it in my grandmother's room the day before yesterday, and sure enough, you are the thief who entered her room to steal!" ”

"I picked up the beads, I didn't steal your things!" Li Changjing shouted: "Why are you sure that I am a thief, have you found it out, do you have evidence!" ”

"Hey, last night, my disciple Xu Huaitian happened to see you outside Mrs. Huo's room, holding this Buddha bead in your hand." Xu Zhenhai said with a smile: "This Buddha bead looks like an antique, what thief would be stupid enough to throw it away, and then it happened to be picked up by you?" ”

"Boy, I don't care how you came into my Huo family, but what my Huo family hates the most is people with unclean hands and feet." Huo Er Ye said viciously: "I forgot to tell you, Uncle Xu is the most powerful cultivator of the Xu family, he is famous in the entire Great Cause City, and he has taught such an excellent apprentice as Brother Xu Huaitian Xu, in front of him, what kind of cleverness do you want to play?" Obediently hand over the medicine, I can still help you intercede and let Uncle Xu spare your dog's life. ”

Li Changjing was choked by Xu Zhenhai's neck, and he was extremely shocked in his heart, he didn't expect Xu Huaitian to be so powerful, this old man was still his master.

However, although he couldn't move, he straightened his waist and emphasized: "I didn't steal your things, I picked up the Buddha beads, it's all the truth!" ”

Xu Zhenhai couldn't listen to it anymore, snorted, and said to Huo Erye: "This kid is really unappetizing, when did he steal people's things so justifiably?" Huo Zhen, I killed this little thief, your Huo family won't trouble me, right? ”

"Of course not." Huo Erye said with a straight face: "There are all human and material evidence, what's the use of him denying it?" Since it is not the Huo family, Uncle Xu can dispose of it casually, and the Huo family will never say a word. ”

Xu Zhenhai snorted, grabbed Li Changjing's neck, and didn't see how hard he worked, just flicked it lightly, Li Changjing flew out, and slammed his back on the wall next to him, and the huge force made the entire wall vibrate and rumble.

The lame boy slowly slid to the ground, almost all the bones in his body shattered, and vomited blood one bite after another, his eyes glazed over, but he still gritted his teeth and tried to struggle to stand up.

In the aisle on the other side, Liu Qingtan hurried over, and when she saw Li Changjing's tragic situation, she screamed in fright, but no matter how she explained it and emphasized that she and Li Changjing were friends, that Huo Erye was indifferent, and he didn't even help to say a good word, and finally he was so annoyed that he couldn't help but shout: "Liu Qingtan, pay attention to your identity!" You're just my sister's secretary, so how can you speak here? What is Uncle Xu's status, and what can you shout in front of him? ”

Liu Qingtan's eyes were red, and he hated this Huo Erye so much that he shouted at Li Changjing from afar: "You hold on, Miss has woken up, I'll call her over immediately!" With that, he squeezed through the crowd and ran wildly towards the way he came.

After Liu Qingtan left, Li Changjing, who was seriously injured, finally stood up reluctantly, he raised his hands and made a fist posture, as if he wanted to continue to fight with Xu Zhenhai, this move successfully made Xu Zhenhai laugh, he sneered: "Boy, I see that you are quite unconvinced, do you think I am bullying the small?" Hehe, the old man has never eaten this set, why is it to bully the small? If you have a backer, then find a settlement with the old man, if not, then obediently accept your fate. If you don't have the ability and have hard bones, this is looking for death! For decades, the people who died at the hands of the old man have not hundreds but thousands, and I can even get rid of the baby before the full moon, let alone you? ”

As soon as the words fell, Xu Zhenhai took a step, and the whole person was so fast that he brought out more than a dozen afterimages behind him, and came to Li Changjing in the blink of an eye.

The next moment, only a pop was heard.

Xu Zhenhai used his right hand to pierce Li Changjing's stomach.

At this scene, the backs of the people watching the play around were cold, and cold sweat broke out.

Xu Zhenhai slowly pulled out his hand, and on that dry arm, there was not a drop of blood, on the other hand, Li Changjing, a blood hole appeared in his stomach, the flesh and blood were blurred, shocking, and the blood almost soaked most of his jeans in the blink of an eye.

Li Changjing fell to the ground softly.

In the end, in order to save other people's lives, the lame boy who came all the way to this great city of great cause curled up under the wall.

Knowing that he was going to die, he clutched the fiery red Buddha bead.

"Dad, mother. Shui'er, Sister Yuanyang. The lame boy with tears streaming down his face, facing the north side of the wall, said the last words:

"I'm sorry."

Almost instantly, the bead he was holding in his hand suddenly turned into powder without warning, and all of it melted into his body.

At the same time, more than a thousand kilometers away from here, in the north, in that remote town, above a medicine field in the north of the town, a towering ginseng shadow appeared, shining golden, towering into the clouds, overlooking the earth like a god.

In the Su family's mansion, Su Zhen and Su An's father and son stood in the courtyard, looking at the shocking picture in the sky, and exclaimed: "What a spectacular scene, in the face of this shadow, I actually have the urge to kneel and worship!" ”

The residents of the town ran out of their homes one after another, looking up at the scene in the sky, they were so shocked that they were speechless, and some old people who had seen it once twenty years ago were in tears, muttering to themselves: "This is a great blessing, God bless our town, the gods have appeared......"

Over there in the medicine field.

At the bottom of the shadow of the huge ginseng, there is a woman in yellow with a beautiful face.

She looked in the direction where the young man was, and said softly, "God doesn't give justice, it's okay." Sister Yuanyang will help you get it. ”

She put her hands behind her back and ascended straight to heaven.

On a sunny afternoon in the summer, there was suddenly no cloud thunder, and a loud rumbling sound was transmitted from the sky above the town to the skyline, and it was speeding away in the direction of Daye City.
