"No effect?" This made me a little incomprehensible, "Such a powerful elixir, even if it can't cure diseases, it always has the effect of strengthening the body, right?" ”

The old lady shook her head, "It's just a short life, and it's not effective for the lesions on your body." So I'm curious to know how you've managed to get to where you are now? ”

The old lady's words made me not know what to say for a while, I looked down and thought for a while, I said: "Mother-in-law, in fact, I don't remember what you said, I only remember when I was six or seven years old, I have been living in my grandfather's house, he boiled herbs for me every day, when I was eight years old, I returned to my parents in the city, and lived a normal life, I think it was my grandfather's medical skills that saved me." ”

Hearing me say this, the old lady snorted coldly, "Hmph, I have seen Zhuo Yunshan's methods, although he can be called a skilled doctor, but there is nothing shocking about it, it is said that he cured your disease, I don't believe it." ”

The old lady's words made me unhappy, grandpa has always occupied an important position in my heart, and I can't accept others' doubts and slanders against him. I couldn't help frowning, "Mother-in-law, it's a bit arbitrary for you to say this, isn't it possible that your Tan family can't cure the disease, and others can't cure it either?" As you just said, there are people outside the world. The Tan family can't choose the leader among the four major families, why do they have such confidence? ”

The old lady was also slightly stunned by my snatch, and then smiled, "Your sharp teeth are a bit like your grandfather." But you are stronger than your grandfather, and when he was young, he didn't dare to be as open-mouthed as you. ”

I also regretted it a little after I finished speaking, I felt that my words were a little heavy, and now I am still on other people's territory, I have provoked the old lady, and it will not do me any good. I pondered for a while, softened my tone a bit, and then said, "Mother-in-law, I won't tell you that my illness has not been completely cured. Yesterday, Aunt Tan gave me a pulse and said that my old disease had relapsed. ”

The old lady was not surprised when I said this, "When I grabbed your wrist just now, I also noticed something unusual. It's a pity that your grandfather has passed away, and there are no dragon scales or uznamu to renew your life, so I think you should only ask for more blessings. ”

I shook my head a little panicked, "Not necessarily, now that the level of medicine is so developed, after I go back this time, I will do a comprehensive physical examination, and it is very likely that I will find a way to treat it." Although I said this, I had no bottom in my heart, and it seemed that I was saying it to the old lady, but in fact it was more like saying it to myself.

"I hope so!" The old lady stood up, "It's not too early, you can rest." He pointed to a room to my right, "You go to that room, and I'll spend the night with my old sister." ”

I also quickly stood up, "No need mother-in-law, I can't affect your rest, it's fine for me to rest here." ”

The old lady waved her hand involuntarily, stood up, and walked to the room on the left. I was a little helpless, and I couldn't refuse, so I had to walk to the room on the right.

After walking a few steps, the old lady suddenly turned to me and said, "By the way, I was thinking about your name just now, and now I remember it." ”

I thought this old lady was very interesting, she had been thinking about this question, and it would be nice for me to ask directly, so I said, "My name is ......."

Before I finished speaking, the old lady said, "Zhuo Chengyang, right, your name is Zhuo Chengyang!" ”

I was stunned, and these three words exploded in my ears like thunder. I stood there dumbfounded, but I still said subconsciously: "I, my name is Zhuo Ran." ”

"Zhuoran?" The old lady frowned, nodded, and turned and walked into the house.

As the door on the left side of the house closed, I was the only one left standing here, Zhuo Chengyang? I heard the name again. I turned mechanically and walked towards the room on the right, my heart churning.

The first time I saw this name was in the burial chamber under the ancestral house, and the three characters Zhuo Chengyang were written on a tablet. Through what happened later, I always felt that this name had some special connection with me, and I still hear it again today. And he was mistaken for Zhuo Chengyang.

This question has been bothering me for a long time, and I desperately want to figure it out. Now that it's been brought up again, I have a strong feeling like a fish in my throat.

No, I have to ask! I made up my mind, and I wanted to go to the old lady again. But as soon as I turned around, I suddenly saw a person standing behind me, and I was unprepared, startled, and couldn't help but exclaim. But when I looked closely, the person standing behind me turned out to be an old lady.

I asked in surprise, "Mother-in-law, what are you doing here...... but before I could finish speaking, the old lady suddenly pushed me. Don't look at this old lady is very old, but her strength is not small, I was pushed by her and staggered, and before I could stand firmly, I suddenly felt a pain in my hand.

I looked down and saw a silver needle stuck in my wrist. I looked at the old lady in astonishment, and was about to speak, but suddenly realized that my legs were a little weak. I subconsciously rushed to the table next to me, and in a short time I felt that my legs were no longer numerous, and then my whole body fell to the chair next to the table.

The old lady took two steps forward and looked at me coldly, "Don't move, now you are just under anesthetic, if you are disobedient, I don't mind adding some more medicine to you." ”

I was taken aback and quickly shook my head. I don't know if I talked about it just now, but this old lady changed her face when she said it! Fortunately, my legs were numb, and speaking didn't matter, "Mother-in-law, what are you doing here?" Am I inadvertently offending you? ”

"Less of this!" The old lady raised her hand, "Say, why did you pretend to be someone from the Zhuo family to come here?" What is your purpose? ”

I was stunned by the old lady's sudden question, and opened my mouth, not knowing what to say. It took me a while before I said, "Where does this begin?" I didn't pretend to be someone from the Zhuo family, my name is Zhuo Ran, my grandfather's name is Zhuo Yunshan, and my second uncle's name is Zhuo Qiuye. ”

"Even now, you're still stubborn!" An old voice came from outside the door. Immediately afterwards, another old man walked in, it was the old lady who lived in the opposite room. I didn't notice it just now, but now I realize that one of the old man's feet is lame.

The old man at the foot of the slope walked up to me, looked at me and said: "Don't think that we are easy to deceive when we are old, twenty years ago, when Zhuo Qiu and his nephew came here, we inquired clearly, Zhuo Yunshan only has this one grandson, and Zhuo Qiu only has this one nephew, even if the Zhuo family has added Ding to import over the years, but the age is not right!" Say! Who are you?! ”
