Chapter 438: Old Man
"Water...."
The ink evil woke up from his sleep in a daze, a hot and dry feeling surged out of his throat, and the thirst made him forget where he was, just looking for water to drink.
Crunch...
Mo Xie struggled to get out of bed, and then staggered to the wooden table, but even after sleeping, his lost spirit still did not replenish, and the injuries on his body were not stopped, but many wounds festered.
Under such a move, the purulent wound was even worse, and the severe pain engulfed him like a wave, making Mo Xie's feet soft and almost not falling, but fortunately, the distance between the bed and the table was not far, and when he was about to fall, he reached out and held the chair, which saved him from falling to the ground.
"Shhhh
But despite this, under such a violent action, it was inevitable that he would taste some hardships, and his face suddenly turned pale.
But he was so thirsty that he couldn't care about the pain in his body, so he just picked up the kettle and poured it into his mouth.
The sweet water was like the nectar of the morning, extinguishing the dryness in his throat and refreshing his mind slightly.
Goo! Goo! Goo!
The teapot on the table was a little bigger than a slap, and it couldn't hold much water.
"How could I be here?"
After drinking the water, Mo Xie had fully sobered up, and it was only at this time that he found out where he was.
I saw that this was a very simple room, more than a dozen square meters in size, with no furniture, only a table, two chairs, and a basin and tea set that had been used for an unknown number of years.
Although the house was very dilapidated and the furniture was very old, Mo Xie could tell from all corners of the house that the owner of this room loved to be clean and took care of everything in this room.
"No, I remember that the place where I was unconscious was obviously an exit, how did I wake up and appear here? Could it be that I have already come out of that hellish place?"
When Mo Xie thought of that unknown space, his heart trembled, although he had suffered a lot, suffered a lot of injuries, and encountered many dangers that ordinary people could not understand, but the impact on him was not as good as the previous experience.
After all, he has the ability to solve the dangers he encountered before, as long as he works hard, there is still a glimmer of life, but that space is not, he can't think of a way out of the predicament, even if he sees through the truth of that space before he falls into a coma, how many times does he have a chance to try?
Cultivation, physical strength, and lifespan have all disappeared with the first three failures, and maybe when he fails the next time, it should be his soul's turn, and then his life will come to an end with the failure.
Not all people are willing to gamble, and not all people who have gambled want to go back to the table again, because everyone who has gambled knows that if you gamble for a long time, you will lose.
"Maybe I'm gone. ”
There was still a trace of luck in Mo Xie's heart, but he never verified it, even if it only required him to stand up and take two steps and push open the window.
But he didn't dare, he was afraid that when he opened the window, he would see familiar streets, familiar pictures, familiar pedestrians, and familiar outside world.
But there is a good saying: when you are not willing to do something, life will often push you, even if you are reluctant, you are unwilling, you have to face this momentum.
Crunch~~
The closed door creaked and then was gently pushed open.
From the other end of the door walked out a gray-haired old man, with his back bent, the wrinkles on his face were as deep as the ravines in the mountains, and a pair of eyes full of vicissitudes crossed a touch of relief after seeing the ink evil wake up.
He walked up to Mo Xie step by step, and said in a very remote dialect, "Young man, how are you feeling?
"Thank you for saving my life. ”
When Mo Xie saw the old man, he shifted the direction he was facing, and immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed, expressing his gratitude.
Kill to kill, save to save, one yard to one yard.
He had thought that he would be able to get out as long as he killed all the people here, so in order to get out, he could swing the butcher knife in his hand and kill these seemingly real people.
But now, the old man in front of him saved him, this is kindness, if you have kindness, you have to repay it, and Mo Xie will not be selective because of the identity of the other party.
"Get up, get up, I'm not worthy of your worship, get up, get up. When the old man saw Mo Xie kneeling on the ground, he hurriedly stepped forward and wanted to lift Mo Xie from the ground.
But in the end, Mo Xie is still a young man, even if he is seriously injured, it is not something that an old man over half a hundred years old can move, so after the old man lifted it a few times, Mo Xie still did not move.
"Hey... Why do you bother? After the old man saw Mo Xie's grateful and stubborn expression, he knew that as long as he didn't receive this courtesy, Mo Xie would not get up, and then said helplessly: "Okay, get up, get up." ”
Hearing this, Mo Xie stood up with difficulty on the stool with one hand.
"Sit down, sit down, your wounds are not healed yet, but don't add new injuries to old wounds, sit down quickly. ”
The old man stepped forward and supported Mo Xie on the stool, and then went out with the teapot to fill it with hot water, and after pouring a cup for Mo Xie, he asked with concern:
"What is the cause of your injury, when I saw it, it frightened me, and the neighbors around me said that I couldn't be saved, but the old man I don't believe in evil, and brought you back, fortunately, God has eyes. ”
When the old man spoke, there was a palpitation on his face, as if he remembered the scene he had seen in the alley that day.
After hearing this, Mo Xie didn't know how to speak, it can't be said that it was injured after killing you for several rounds.... Then he could only say half-truths: "Was.... Someone was beaten. ”
"I really don't know which god killed it, how can I hit such a heavy hand, isn't this killing people?" The old man suddenly scolded and continued: "You take care of your injuries first, don't think about the rest, I'll go cook for you now, and when you're full, we'll go to the doctor and heal your injuries first." ”
Before Mo Xie could speak, the old man got up, but before that, a tempting fragrance came from next door.
As soon as Mo Xie heard it, his stomach sounded like thunder, so he had to smile bitterly and wait for the meal to start.
Not much.
The meals arrived one after another, there were four dishes, two meat and two vegetarian, packed on four different plates, and it seemed that the old man had never used so many things to eat.
"Quick, eat it hot. ”
"Thank you. ”
Mo Xie was really hungry, and he couldn't care about being polite, so he picked up the bowl and devoured it.
During this period, the old man also kept giving the ink evil vegetables on the side, which was fortunate that the ink evil's physique returned to the mortal stage, otherwise these four dishes alone were really not enough for him to eat alone.
"Eat slowly, don't choke. ”
After the old man saw Mo Xie eating, a faint smile crossed the corner of his mouth, and then he picked up the bowl and didn't eat the vegetables, just eating.
............
After eating.
The old man took Mo Xie to the most famous local hospital for treatment.
And Mo Xie also took this opportunity to see the outside world, but after seeing it, his heart was filled with despair.
I saw that this was still that strange world, the only difference was that the place where the ink evil was located was far away from that section of the street, and he had never been to this place, even if it was three massacres, he didn't know anything about this place.
It's like it came out of nowhere.
And the pedestrians around him also became unfamiliar, the people who appeared twice before, this time he didn't see any of them, let alone familiar, not even similar.
"It turned out that I was still here, and I never went out. ”
"What did you say?"
"Ah, it's nothing, it's just a random sigh. ”
"At a young age, like an old man. ”
When he arrived at the hospital, the old man behaved very restrainedly, he didn't know where to put his hands and feet, and he was very careful when walking, for fear that his dirty clothes would touch others.
Seeing this, Mo Xie felt very uncomfortable, and then pulled the old man's clothes, wanting to pull the old man out, no longer cured, but at this moment, he was seriously ill, how could he have the strength, even standing was under the support of the old man, how could he pull a person.
So he pulled a few times, but was taken a few steps by the old man.
I just avoided it all the way to the counter of the medical hall.
"Excuse me, take a look at him. The old man looked at the doctor in front of the counter, who was about his age but had a ruddy complexion.
"Hmm,. The doctor glanced up at the two ink evils, and directly led the two to the inner hall, and then he didn't suspect the ink evil, he directly lifted his clothes, looked at the purulent wound on the surface, and frowned.
"Why don't you come here early, it's so serious, if it is too delayed for a while, even if it is cured, it will cost a lot of silver. ”
"It's all my fault, it's all my fault. The old man hurriedly admitted his mistake, and even Mo Xie couldn't help it anymore, he leaned into the old man's ear and whispered: "Let's just see a doctor, there's no need to keep your voice down." ”
"But..."
"Nothing. ”
Just as the two were talking in a low voice, the doctor came over with the packaged medicinal herbs and said, "Ten pieces of silver." ”
When the old man heard this, he was stunned, obviously he didn't expect it to be so expensive, but then he gritted his teeth and took out a lump of yellowed paper from his arms, carefully opened it, and took out the scattered silver taels wrapped inside.
"This medicine is taken three times a day and you will recover after a month, remember not to let the wound become infected during this period. ”
"Yes, yes, yes, thank you, Doctor. ”
