54. Torment
When Bai Gu stepped into Lao Liutou's house with a few large and small packages, Brother Peng couldn't help but be a little surprised: "You came back so early today?" It's not noon yet. ”
Bai Gu didn't speak, just silently walked into the back room, put things on the table, and then lost his mind and slumped on the chair.
Brother Peng frowned, hurriedly walked over, frowned and asked, "Xiaobai, what's wrong with you?" What happened? ”
Bai Gu still didn't speak.
Brother Peng was anxious, "Oh, Xiaobai, you have something to say!" ”
"Shut up! Stay on my side! Old Liu Tou walked over and slapped the back of Brother Peng's head, then turned his head to face Bai Gu, his voice softened a lot, and a pair of old big hands grabbed Bai Gu's hand, "Xiaobai, you are calm, I am Grandpa Liu." Tell me, is something wrong with Xiaoxiao? All you have to do is nod or shake your head. ”
Bai Gu raised his head in a daze, staring at Lao Liu's head with his eyes, as if there was only a blank space in front of him.
Old Liu Tou didn't speak again, just frowned, responding to Bai Gu's gaze.
Silent for a long time.
There was a long silence.
Bai Gu's lips trembled slightly, and two lines of tears suddenly rolled down from his eyes, and from then on, they were out of control, and the tears did not stop.
Bai Gu didn't speak, and he couldn't pronounce a syllable, like a fish in his throat.
Just tears.
Lao Liu's brows tightened, and he seemed to know the answer in his heart, so he gently patted the back of Bai Gu's hand.
Bai Gu shook his head while crying, but he didn't speak.
Brother Peng was anxious next to him, and just wanted to speak, he was glared back by a stern look from Lao Liu, so he had to sit back in his place.
I didn't dare to have any ideas yet.
Bai Gu slowly lowered his head, almost burying himself in the clothes on his chest.
A whimpering sound was like a wisp, and as Bai Gu's twitching shoulders shook out, they fell to the ground.
No matter how sluggish Brother Peng's mind was, he knew what was going on at this time.
He jerked to his feet and was about to walk out.
"If you walk out of this door today, you won't come back to Lingding Alley!" Old Liu Tou's cold voice came from behind Brother Peng.
Brother Peng turned his head to look at Lao Liu, and his tone was eager, "Xiaoxiao has an accident, can I sit idly by?" ”
Old Liu Tou's expression was cold, "Either you sit down now, or you can pack up my things and get out of Lingding Alley!" ”
Brother Peng was in a dilemma for a while, and he was stunned in place.
At this time, Bai Gu's voice slowly came out, "Grandpa Liu, a small dark disease has erupted, her body is covered with frost, she looks so painful and cold." What to do, what should I do? I don't know what I can do? Grandpa Liu, tell me, how can I save Xiaoxiao, what can I do? Grandpa Liu! ”
Bai Gu raised his head, his thin, yellow, and bruised hands grabbed Lao Liu's head, and the tears and snot on his face that were not as big as a palm were all together.
Old Liu Tou pursed his lips, and a pair of cloudy old eyes slowly closed.
Bai Gu stopped crying, and he was not even in the mood to wipe the tears and snot on his face to his chin, but just looked at Lao Liu Tou, waiting for him to give a good idea.
Brother Peng stood at the table and didn't dare to disturb him.
After a long time, Lao Liu Tou slowly opened his eyes and sighed, "I can't think of any way." ”
The light in Bai Gu's eyes was extinguished all of a sudden.
Brother Peng always felt that his throat was extremely dry, and after swallowing a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, he said, "Old Liu, is there really no way?" ”
Old Liu Tou shook his head, "After all these years, if there is a way, it will not just be suppressed with some side ways." Now that it has erupted, there is nothing I can do. ”
"Wu Lao said that you can use Wanghai Stone." Bai Gu's voice was weak, as if his soul had been drained.
Old Liu Tou thought for a while, "Looking at Haishi, it's not impossible." It's much easier to find the root of the lesion. ”
"But there is no one in the Changzhou Pharmacy, I need to find it, otherwise I will have to take Xiaoxiao to another place, and Xiaoxiao can only go alone, I can't go with it."
Old Liu Tou frowned, "Somewhere else?" Did Dr. Wu say that? ”
Bai Gu shook his head, "It's not Elder Wu, it's another distinguished guest invited by Elder Wu, Mr. Jiang Fengmian Jiang, who has research on incurable diseases." ”
Old Liu Tou's face was abrupt, "If it's him, then maybe it can indeed cure Xiaoxiao." But this trip is a long way, and I don't know when I will see Xiaoxiao again. ”
Bai Gu's face was expressionless, not knowing what he was thinking.
Lao Liu Tou patted Bai Gu on the shoulder, took out a few pieces of paper to help Bai Gu wipe the dirt off his face, "Xiaobai, I know this is a difficult choice, but you must know that in life, there will be gatherings and dispersions, and no one can be by your side for a long time." Of course, people who are destined will meet again. Whatever decision you make in the end, I will support you. ”
Brother Peng hurriedly echoed: "Me too." ”
Bai Gu raised his head and looked at Lao Liu Tou and Brother Peng, "I want to go to Guxue Peak." ”
A hint of surprise flashed in Lao Liu's eyes, but he still nodded, "Go, pay attention to safety, and come back early." ”
Bai Gu looked at Brother Peng again.
Brother Peng nodded.
Bai Gu grabbed two of the packages on the table and went out in the wind and snow.
Only then did Brother Peng dare to ask: "Old Liu, little ......"
Lao Liu raised his hand to interrupt Brother Peng's words, "Don't worry, Xiaoxiao, I won't let her have an accident." ”
Old Liu Tou looked up in the direction of Yunshui City, and there was a yin owl in his eyes that could not be hidden.
Old man Wu, if you dare to cure Xiaoxiao's problems, you won't stay in this Yunshui City!
If you make Xiaobai a little uncomfortable, then don't think about it!

The light rain between the sky and the earth continued, and a sword light lit up on the ground, and a middle-aged man appeared, standing on a low ground, staring blankly at the front of him.
It was a small tomb.
Only a small wooden plaque was erected, and now it is too rotten to read the words on it.
The man stuck the sword on his back and sat down on the spot. The man took out the flask, leaned his back against the scabbard, and drank his thoughts one by one.
I don't know how long it took, but two figures appeared. One in a green shirt and one in a white robe.
The two looked at the man, both silent. Then the two of them bowed together towards the small tomb, "Dad, Mother, we have come to see you." ”
"Brother......
"Zheng!" The sound of the sword interrupted the two.
"Don't mind, I'm just a common man, and I can't afford to call the two of you. I'm terrible to death. The man put away his sword, wiped the cuff with it, and then slowly put it back.
"This ...... What happened back then......"
As soon as the man in the green shirt opened his mouth, he was pointed at his nose by the middle-aged man with a sword, "Do you still have the face to mention?!" If it weren't for it, how could my father and mother die?! ”
The middle-aged man's eyes were full of hatred, "Lao Tzu can't beat me now, but listen to me, when my sword path is completed, I will definitely step on the mountain temple of the sect and avenge my father!" ”
"Also, Jie is my father's mother, not my wife. Unworthy! ”
"Get out!"
The middle-aged man was dumbfounded and roared hysterically.
The green shirt and white robe opened their mouths, but they couldn't say a word, so they had to sigh. After the two said goodbye to the small grave and the middle-aged man, they turned around and left together.
The middle-aged man smashed the flask hard, his mouth wide open, and he gasped for air.
His face was covered with rain.

Bai Gu stood in front of the bamboo gate, looking at the delicate and rough yard in front of him, and didn't know what to do or say for a while.
Bai Gu stood silently outside the door drenched in snow.
After a while, Bai Gu's shoulders were already covered with a thick layer of white shoulders.
The door of one of the huts in the courtyard suddenly opened, and an old man stepped out of it.
"Just standing outside and not talking, do you have to ask me to invite you in?" The old man looked at Bai Gu helplessly, and said angrily.
Bai Gu smiled, with a simple face, "Hello Xu Ye!" ”
