She was dressed in a black robe face down, hanging upside down, her arms outstretched. What struck me the most was that her eyes were open and blood-red. Yes, with the same bloody eyes as Takashiro.

"Is she alive?" That's the only thing I can think of asking.

The old woman sneered: "Of course, how can you die?" "But why do I think Qiu Yuebai looks like she's dead? Staring into the old woman's eyes, she asked, "What is your relationship?" ”

She replied: "Even if I say it's okay, you can't believe it, in fact I am indeed in the same vein as her." ”

Connected to the same vein? I hesitated and asked, "Are you mother and daughter?" When the old woman heard this, anger flashed in her eyes, and she stared at me with hatred, and I was completely shocked by the answer in my heart: "You are sisters." "There is no other thing in this world where the eye details of a mother and daughter can be like this, except for ...... Twin! She and Qiu Yuebai are twin sisters!

But since they are sisters, why do you want to treat Qiu Yuebai like this? The confusion on my face was seen by the old man, and he raised his hand and pointed to it and asked, "What do you think it looks like?" I was slightly stunned, a little confused by what he meant, and looked up again, looking at a ridiculous answer that appeared in my head: bats.

The long sleeves of the black cloak resemble the wings of a bat when the arms are stretched out. Anyone with a little common sense knows that bats hang upside down with their heads downwards when they are at rest. Legend has it that the eyes of bats are blood-red in the dark.

So, was Qiu Yuebai hung on it as a live bat specimen?

Suddenly, it felt like it wasn't simple, it was more like a ...... than a punishment Some kind of ritual. And I'm afraid that the purpose of bringing me here has something to do with it, and the bad feeling is very strong, but even if I feel nervous and frightened at this moment, I can't leave. So I can only follow the thread they threw and ask: "Why do you hang her on it like a bat?" ”

When my question came out, I noticed that the old woman's face was stunned, and the old man's eyes flashed, and he turned to the corners of his mouth and smiled: "Sure enough, I didn't see the wrong person, I do have understanding." After a pause, he said to the old woman: "Ah Yue, you come and tell her." ”

The old woman asked, "Do you really want to tell her?" In case ......"

"It doesn't matter." The old man waved his hand to stop the old woman's words, "Just talk about your sisters." ”

The old woman's face softened, and after a moment of silence, she looked at me with a smile: "Strictly speaking, this matter is still the experience gained from the case you solved, and the twins replace bones with bones." ”

My heart moved, she said that she was a child? Suddenly, I thought that Gao Cheng had said that Qiu Yuebai had been infected with a strange disease since she was a child, and I forgot about it after too long, and now she mentioned Xiaotong, could it be that she and Qiu Yuebai also used this method to treat diseases? I blurted out, "What disease do you have?" The old woman was silent, with anger in her eyes, I looked at her and then at the autumn moon white above her head, and had an epiphany.

Exhaustion!

But Xiaotong and her twin sisters exchanged bone for bone because of bone cancer, how can they be treated for this failure? There was a vague answer in his thoughts: I heard Gao Cheng say that Qiu Yuebai was controlled by silver needle puncture, if the old woman in front of her was in the same situation as her, just looking at her old dragon bell shape, she knew that it was obviously a symptom but not a cure, so they used the current way of hanging the bat upside down? But how it works, I can't deduce.

One thing is certain, it is impossible to just wear a bat-shirt-like garment and hang it upside down to achieve a certain function. First of all, Qiu Yuebai's eyes turned red, and it was obvious that she had already used the drug.

The old woman's deep voice came from the ear: "If the root cause has to start from more than 20 years ago, I contracted a strange disease with her, my skin will be wrinkled inexplicably, and my body functions have become fragile. I had no choice but to seek medical treatment from the people and find a method of pricking acupoints with silver needles to open up qi and blood, and this strange disease was finally suppressed and restored to its original appearance. At the time, I thought I was cured, but I didn't think that after two years, I would relapse again, but this time it was not the two of them together, but she first inexplicably failed into an old woman.

Originally, I was secretly glad when I used a silver needle to puncture the acupoint for her, thinking that I had gotten rid of this strange disease, but I didn't think that after half a year, she would be cured and replaced by my failure. This has been the case every year since then, and the silver acupuncture can only suppress the diseased body to remain in the cortex without damaging the internal organs. It wasn't until last year when she came back that she said that there was a way to try, saying that there was a pair of twin sisters who also had a strange childhood disease and suffered from bone cancer in their shoulder blades, and they were cured with each other's half bones, and she said that our failure must be related to blood, and it happened that my failure period was about to end, and she was going to start, so it was decided that the two of them would alternately use good blood to replace each other. ”

I felt very unbelievable to hear this, the "half bone" of the child itself is very sensational, but the fact is that she did live to adulthood by the bones of her twin sisters. But that's a life for a life. And the situation of the twin sisters of Qiu Yuebai is also different, generally twins get sick at the same time and recover at the same time, how can one person be sick for half a year alternately?

Also, is the root cause of exhaustion really blood? Bones can be replaced, how can blood be replaced? I vaguely felt that something was wrong, but I couldn't analyze it for a while.

When I heard the old woman speak again, it could be seen that there was indignation in her face, and she only heard her say: "Our sisters have been dependent on each other for many years, and I never thought that she would put me together at this time." Almost as soon as she proposed the plan, I nodded in agreement, so on the day of the handover, I gave her three blood transfusions, but when she took advantage of my excessive blood loss and fainted, she sealed all the acupuncture points on my body with silver needles, completely replacing our blood. When I woke up, I was the same ghost again, and she was gone. ”

"Wait," I couldn't help but interrupt her at this point, "didn't you say you take turns every six months?" You were designed by her a year ago, and you failed again, it stands to reason that it should not be more than half a year, why haven't you changed back to your original self by now? "In addition to the discrepancy in time, I also found out what I just felt was wrong. Let's just say that if their failure is related to blood, then it is impossible to replace the bone marrow in the shoulder blade like a child, and the blood is connected to the whole body, so it is impossible to replace it locally. And the blood returns, even if the old woman draws out some of the blood and gives it to Qiu Yuebai, that neutralization will already be mixed into the sick body.

Therefore, Qiu Yuebai already had the heart to calculate her sister when she made this suggestion, and she didn't want half of the blood, but all of it. Returning to the question just now, the old woman's eyes showed sadness, "How do I know that after such a blood exchange, a whole year has passed and it is still like this." ”

Heartbroken, she means that the exhaustion has not recovered in this year? And what about Autumn Moon White? I looked up, yes, Qiu Yuebai has been with Luo Jinghan and Qu Xinhua all year long, and she has not exhausted again.

This is somewhat similar to the twin sisters of the child, replacing bones with bones, replacing blood with blood, and everything is unchanged, and the final result is: only one person can be fulfilled! And the other is a victim.

Qiu Yuebai knew the reason from the beginning, she naturally couldn't want to be the one who sacrificed, and then when the old woman agreed to that suggestion, the end was already doomed. It's just that I don't think Qiu Yuebai's method is as simple as exchanging blood for blood, otherwise their twin sisters themselves can be regarded as "virus carriers", even if the blood on the old woman's body is replaced, the source is still there, and it is impossible that it will not recur for a whole year.

So there must be other mysteries in it, and I naturally thought of Gao Cheng. Because in this year, Qiu Yuebai was with Gao Cheng, and half a year ago, he did not hesitate to tear his face with the members of Group D and put Gao Cheng under house arrest, and he was drugged. She must have gotten something out of Takashiro! I think so, for sure. But then I felt that it was unreasonable, even if Qiu Yuebai obtained something beneficial to her in Gaocheng to cure her exhaustion, the old woman who had replaced the bad blood should recover again after half a year. So the root of the problem came from a year ago!

Her mind is so mysterious and complicated, I'm afraid that the truth is only clear to her Qiu Yuebai herself.

Thinking of this, the corners of my mouth pulled up a sarcastic arc, looked at the old woman and said: "So now you are treating her in the way of others, grabbing her back to make this bat specimen and hanging it on it, and then draw her blood to exchange it with you?" ”

The old woman was angry when she heard this: "You should have hung her up by me?" ”

I smiled and asked, "It's not you, is it still her going up by herself?" But I heard the old man interject on the side: "It's really her own volition." This time she came back and her hand bone was broken, and the injury was not light, although Ah Yue hated her very much, but she did not take the opportunity to persecute her. Because here, each has its own role, each has its own expertise. Originally, she brought back you distinguished guests because of negligence, and she should also be punished, and she also made meritorious contributions in this year. Before dawn, she offered to test the medicine, and you can guess who she was for? The old man threw the question at me.

He was reluctant to say this, and he hid a lot of information. First of all, the old woman hated Qiu Yuebai to the core, but she didn't take advantage of her injury to retaliate, not because they had a deep sisterhood, but because she was afraid that she had her own scheming, as long as she was a woman, it was impossible not to care about her appearance, and when she didn't get the real method from Qiu Yuebai a year ago, she couldn't do it to her sister. Otherwise, she would have exhausted her life, and it would be difficult to cure this failure.

Secondly, Qiu Yuebai didn't seem to mean to introduce us, and she probably didn't know about the tracker that Luo Jinghan had set up on Qu Xinhua's body. In this way, the suspicion that she intends to set up a situation can be dispelled, but no matter what, our entry has already been taken by surprise, and we have been scattered one by one by the people who manipulated it behind the scenes. <
