Chapter 593: Aging

After hesitating for a moment, he shook his head slightly, and his figure revealed a trace of desolation.

However, the woman did not listen to him, but pounced on him again, but just as she was about to touch his body, the old man suddenly took two steps forward, which was obviously avoiding her, but with obvious reluctance, she wanted to refuse and welcome.

In the end, the woman still chose to stay where she was, and after a while, she said in a complicated and sad tone: "It's all because of me, because of me, you will become like this, if you don't meet me, you will definitely live happily." And I, if I hadn't met you, would have died a long time ago. I owe you my life, so, no matter what, I'm going to heal you, even if it's for a life!!"

She said the last four words word by word, and her words revealed a sense of determination and firmness.

And these four words fell on the old man's ears, but his body trembled, and he slowly closed his eyes.

After a long time, he sighed, opened his eyes, and said abruptly: "Why are you so troubled, now I am in this situation, not because I am to blame, but because I am willing, if I have to choose again, I will do it again,,,"

As soon as these words came out, the woman could no longer suppress her inner thoughts, tears burst out of her eyes, and she couldn't cry.

Although the old man in front of him seems to be old and decrepit, it is not due to his advanced age, but due to the influence of external forces, which accelerates aging and changes his appearance.

In fact, he is just a man who is about to enter his life, and it is only because he saved the woman in front of him that he has become like this.

It's a long story, and it goes back three years,,,

The man was originally the eldest son of a wealthy businessman, named Wu Yunjing, whose family background is superior, food and clothing are worry-free, and he is a gentle life, a talent, it can be said that he is the dragon and phoenix among people, and he is the object of all mortal people.

It's just that he doesn't live as glamorous as it seems on the surface.

His father had two wives and three sons, and he had two half-brothers, and his two younger brothers were different from him, both of whom were scheming, flamboyant, and most suitable for business, so they were deeply favored by their father.

His father put all the resources of the family on his two younger brothers to focus on nurturing them. And for him, the eldest son in the family, he was much colder, and only gave him a mansion and limited wealth, leaving him to fend for himself.

It's just that he has no complaints, and he always has an optimistic attitude towards life. He was sincere and philanthropic, and had a high reputation in the area where he lived, which also laid the groundwork for his "unfortunate" encounter.

One day, he got up early to go out to the market, passed by a small road, and found that it was full of people coming and going, all pointing to a place in front of him, but no one approached.

Then, he learned that an unkempt woman had appeared here early in the day, with ragged clothes, multiple scars on her body, and blood was constantly oozing.

It stands to reason that this woman does not cause much trouble, and it is not uncommon for such a down-and-out street wanderer, but what can attract everyone's attention is that the blood oozing from her body is not bright red, but dark green!

Soon, there was a "demon girl" in the crowd of onlookers, first a little, then a piece, but all of them stayed verbally, and no one dared to approach.

The woman seemed to be badly wounded, but she simply moved her body, and then she remained motionless again.

At this time, Wu Yunjing came to the front of the crowd, and he looked the woman in front of him up and down, his messy hair was knotted and draped around her, blocking her cheeks.

He couldn't see her face, but he could clearly feel the fear and panic coming from her, and then, despite everyone's kind obstructions, he decided to lend a helping hand to the woman, and he took her back to the mansion without knowing her identity and details.

Later, under his meticulous care, the woman recovered incredibly quickly, and it took less than a few days for her to recover.

However, from the first day that the woman entered the mansion, every night, a strange sound echoed in the mansion, lingering in everyone's ears, whether it was a servant or a guard, all could hear this voice, like the roar of a demon, and like the roar of the undead.

Not only that, but there is also a strange phenomenon in the mansion, that is, all the flowers and plants in the courtyard show signs of rapid wilting, and this withering is not like being infected by poisonous stains, but like a natural process of aging and withering, as if someone has fast-forwarded their life process, so that aging and death can accelerate the coming.

It's just that Wu Yunjing didn't care about this, he was familiar with the strange changes of the plants in the courtyard, and he had never even heard those strange sounds.

The servants in the mansion talked a lot, all speculating that this woman was a demon girl with demonic power, but anyone who was close to her, whether it was people or things, would be eroded by demonic power, and eventually become like those flowers and plants in the courtyard, aging rapidly and dying early.

Those kind servants told him this and asked him to drive the woman out, but Wu Yunjing said that he didn't want to drive her out, but decided to stay with her!

Later, all the servants in the mansion did not want to stay in the mansion any longer and left.

Only Wu Yunjing and the woman were left in the huge mansion, and the woman forgot everything that happened to her before, including her identity, name, and so on.

Wu Yunjing didn't care about this, he saw that the other party especially liked the sachet that he had been hanging on his body, so he called her: Xiang'er.

The two fell in love at first sight and quickly fell in love.

It's just that the good times didn't last long, and the maid's speculation and worries became a fact, Wu Yunjing aged rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye in the short time he spent with Xiang'er, and in only one year, he had entered the year of the Mandate of Heaven, and in only two years, he had entered the age of antiquity.

Although his body and mind stayed at the original age, his body was aging, and all over his body, except for the accent of his speech, was the appearance of a half-buried old man, which had to be said to be a cruel torture.

Xiang'er forgot everything, and even she didn't know why there was such a change, and she took him everywhere to seek medical treatment, but no one could cure him of his strange illness.

It's just that in the process, Xiang'er seemed to notice a trace of abnormality from Wu Yunjing's body, as if he knew what caused this lesion.

At the same time, she could also feel that no matter what the reason, Wu Yunjing seemed unwilling to accept treatment from the bottom of her heart.
