Chapter 21: The Choice
"Smack!"
The medicine box fell to the ground, and all the things inside fell out, making a sound, and Chang Huaiyuan and several people walked in with some worry when they heard the sound.
"Xiao Mu, are you okay, why is your face so ugly?" As soon as he entered the door, Chang Chen noticed Mu Yiyang's pale face, came to him with a concerned face, and helped him pick up the things that fell on the ground.
"I'm fine, I just slipped my hand. Waving his hand, Mu Yiyang barely cheered up.
"It's okay, how is the situation of Uncle Erniu and the others?" Seeing that Mu Yiyang didn't look like something was wrong, Chang Chen suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and asked.
"I've removed the dead flesh from their bodies and repaired the dead muscle tissue, so I just need to apply another layer of myogenic cream to heal carefully. After being silent for a while, Mu Yiyang said softly.
Hearing this, the expressions of several people present were relaxed, but Mu Yiyang's voice sounded again: "However, I only brought two bottles of muscle-building cream, and I can only use it for three people at most......"
After saying that, Mu Yiyang stopped speaking, everyone present was shocked, their faces were very ugly, and the scene was quiet for a while.
Although Mu Yiyang repaired the necrotic muscle tissue of Chang Erniu and the four people, if there was no muscle cream to accelerate the speed of their muscle growth, the wounds on their bodies would soon be infected and fester, and even if they were immortals in the world, they would not be able to save them, so everyone present understood that Mu Yiyang meant to make a choice between the four of them.
If you put it in normal times, you can go back and get it when you don't have it, and you don't need to be so embarrassed at all.
However, at such a special moment today, breaking through the encirclement of tens of thousands of bloodthirsty locusts and going to the stone house to get medicine, how much it costs to get medicine, and several people present are very clear in their hearts, so a few people, you look at me, I look at you, but no one opened their mouths to mention this matter.
After a long while, Chang Huaiyuan was the first to recover from the sad atmosphere, and opened his mouth lightly, breaking everyone's silence: "Xiao Mu, you did a good job this time, and I will handle the rest of the things, you go down with your Uncle Chang Shan and them to rest first!"
As he spoke, Chang Huaiyuan paused for a moment, and then said, "Wei'er, you stay, I have something for you to do!"
Hearing this, Mu Yiyang probably guessed what Chang Huaiyuan was going to do next, and after handing him the two bottles of muscle-building cream in the medicine box, he withdrew from the room with Chang Chen's father and son in a low mood, and went to the hall to inspect the villagers who were less injured.
"Wei'er, your age is not too young, sooner or later, the inheritance of the ancestor will be handed over to you, like today's things, you will encounter a lot in the future, this time what to do is up to you to choose!"
Seeing Mu Yiyang and the three of them walking away, Chang Huaiyuan said to Chang Wei earnestly, then put the two bottles of muscle cream on the table on the side, turned his head, looked out of the door with his negative hand, and no longer paid attention to Chang Wei, his tall and sturdy body looked indescribably sluggish.
Seeing this, Chang Wei opened his mouth slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but when the words came to his mouth, he took them back, and after being silent for a while, Fang Wei picked up one of the bottles of muscle-building cream from the table with slightly red eyes, and looked at Chang Erniu with a heavy look of guilt.
I saw that on the hospital bed, Chang Erniu had woken up for some time, and was reluctantly pulling the muscles on his face, showing a faint smile at him, and then shaking his head with great difficulty, but moaning in pain because of the wound involved.
"Uncle Erniu, I'm sorry!"
Looking at Chang Erniu, Chang Wei's eyes turned even redder, and then he gritted his teeth and walked past him to the young man with a broken arm.
......
Time passed quickly, and by the time Mu Yiyang had finished treating the wounds of the injured in the village, it was already completely dark.
The people of the village had just experienced a catastrophe, and most of them were physically and mentally exhausted, and most of them had already rested. The bloodthirsty locusts outside were still hovering at the entrance of the ancestral hall, and although they no longer hit the stone gate, they showed no signs of leaving.
Sitting on the ground leaning against a stone pillar in the hall with a tired face, for some reason, all Mu Yiyang thought about was Chang Erniu's honest smiling face.
Among the four people, Chang Erniu was the most seriously injured, and the necrotic muscle area was also the largest, if he chose to save him, he would need at least a bottle of muscle-building cream, and the remaining bottle of plaster was not enough to treat two people, so as early as when he found that the muscle-building cream he brought was not enough to treat the four people, Mu Yiyang had already expected his end.
However, Rao is like this, Mu Yiyang still can't accept such a result.
This feeling that there is obviously a way to remedy it, but he can only watch the people close to him perish make Mu Yiyang feel very uncomfortable, he suddenly blames himself, and regrets a little, if he thinks about it more carefully when he goes out, the situation may be very different.
But it's a pity that life will not start again, and there is no if, this accident in front of him is destined to be an unavoidable catastrophe in his life, unless, he can successfully get the muscle cream from the stone house, it's just ...... How could he do it with his strength at the ninth level of the Human Realm?
"Still too weak......"
Clenching his fists hard, Mu Yiyang suddenly smiled bitterly, and then curled up, hiding his entire body in a shadow.
But at this moment, Chang Chen suddenly came from outside the hall, sat beside him, opened the water bladder in his hand and took a sip, and then handed it to Mu Yiyang: "Take a sip?"
"This is not ......" Smelling the smell of wine emanating from the water bladder, Mu Yiyang was slightly stunned, and subconsciously wanted to speak, and then immediately reacted, lowered his voice, and said, "Yuqiong brewing?"
After that, Mu Yiyang took the water bladder and took a big sip of wine, the wine instantly entered his throat, choking him and coughing a few times, but the burning wine made his heart stir and feel a little better.
"Haha......" Seeing this, Chang Chen laughed, took the water bladder handed over by Mu Yiyang, poured it suddenly, and then said angrily: "What do you say this is called, being forced like this by a group of little insects, it's really fucking aggrieved!"
"It's all my fault, it's me who didn't do my duty as a pharmacist. Knowing that Chang Chen was talking about Chang Erniu and a few people, Mu Yiyang felt even more guilty in his heart.
"What are you talking about, Xiao Mu, if it weren't for you, Uncle Erniu and the others wouldn't have been able to hold on until now, it's not you, it's the disgusting bloodthirsty locusts outside!"
"But, if it weren't for me......" Mu Yiyang opened his mouth and wanted to say something more, but before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Chang Chen's wave of his hand.
"I know what you're trying to say, I'm here for you. ”
Hearing this, Mu Yiyang glanced up at Chang Chen, but heard him continue: "I just came back from the inner hall, and the patriarch is ...... Sure enough, I chose Uncle Erniu......"
"I knew that there were only two bottles of the cream, and it was the best option. Mu Yiyang said softly.
"Xiao Mu, do you really think this is the best choice?" As he spoke, Chang Chen took another sip of wine, as if he was asking Mu Yiyang and himself.
"Actually, I don't know ......" Mu Yiyang lowered his head a little dazedly.
"Xiao Mu, if I have a way to deal with bloodthirsty locusts, are you willing to ...... Come with me to pick up the medicine?"
After being silent for a while, Chang Chen suddenly smiled and said to Mu Yiyang, that relaxed tone seemed to be like a joke between old friends.
However, Mu Yiyang didn't think so, he knew that although Chang Chen was relatively strong on weekdays, he never joked in the face of such a major event related to life and death.
The three of them often play in the mountains, every time there is danger, Chang Chen always rushes to the front, his cultivation may not be as high as Chang Wei, nor is he as brainy as Mu Yiyang, but he is the most resolute and brave one.
In Chang Chen's heart, partners and relatives always come first, although he is not the best, but he has always been the most trustworthy.
Therefore, seeing Chang Chen say this, Mu Yiyang couldn't help frowning slightly, and then said with a smile: "If I say I don't want to, will you slap me to death." ”
"I can't tell. Chang Chen said.
"Then it seems that I can't go anymore. The heart was unraveled, Mu Yiyang swept away the haze that had accumulated in his heart before, and his expression was relieved.
"It seems so. Chang Chen said again.
"Uncle Erniu's injury should not be delayed any longer, and finally I will get the medicine back tonight. Mu Yiyang suddenly said.
"I think so too, tonight's third watch by me and Brother Chang Liang on duty to guard the door of the ancestral hall, is our best opportunity to go out, I have prepared the drug, and stole my father's door opening stone talisman to ensure that the gods do not know. Chang Chen said proudly.
"You also stole the stone talisman, aren't you afraid that your father will find out?" Mu Yiyang said with some worry.
"It's okay, I've snuck the booster drug you gave me last time into my dad's drink, and now he's sleeping with his head covered, and he can't find it. Chang Chen waved his hand.
"Don't you call Chang Wei? If he is there, the possibility of success will be greater. Saying that, Mu Yiyang also felt a little strange in his heart, it stands to reason that Chang Chen should not miss Chang Wei in such a thing.
Hearing this, Chang Chen's body suddenly stiffened, and then said with a wry smile: "Chang Wei him...... It's still different from us after all, you're young, and adults spoil you, if you are discovered, no one will say anything about you, and I'm used to it, at most, I will be beaten by my father again, it's nothing. However, Chang Wei is going to be the patriarch in the future, if he goes with us, it will be fine, if he fails, what do you think the clan elders will think of him? What will the patriarch do to him? So let's hide it from him!"
"I see, or you're thoughtful. As he spoke, Mu Yiyang took the water bladder from Chang Chen's hand, poured a few sips, and the liquor entered his throat, indescribably bitter.
