The Age of Geniuses _ Chapter 564 The old man and the girl
"Recalling the past, the dusty and empty fields were quiet and natural."
"You will have no regrets even if you die, and your will will fade away when fate comes to an end."
"Though the majesty and fame of a man has passed through the ages, his beauty can be exchanged for thousands of miles of vast rivers and mountains."
"I am willing to fulfill my ambition to slay the dragon, and I will return the favor if Beidou shines!"
"When I was young, I had great ambitions."
"When I was young, I had great ambitions!"
"In the end, all the sorrow is empty and all the bones are withered!"
The soul-stirring poems echoed in the wilderness. In the wilderness of this ancient place, an old man and a young man were holding hands and carrying wormwood on their backs. The old man's body was slightly stooped, and his eyes were filled with sadness.
And the poems coming out of his mouth are even more desolate, helpless and sad.
A girl of thirteen or fourteen years old, with a simple ponytail and smart eyes, is cute and flawless. When she heard the old man's poem, her eyes became a little sad.
"Grandpa, you miss your father again."
The girl's voice is clean and moving, without any impurities, and is very pleasant to the ear.
"Xiaoxuan, are you homesick?"
The old man's weathered eyes were full of doting when he looked at the little girl, but when he spoke, he could not hide the sadness in his heart.
"Grandpa, why don't we mention it?" A trace of sadness flashed through the little girl's clean and smart eyes, as if it was a past she didn't want to recall.
"Okay, Xiaoxuan, grandpa won't say anything, grandpa won't say anything anymore..."
The old man touched the little girl's head and sighed, and the majestic city could not help but appear in his mind.
The breeze blew, and the old and the young all moved forward in silence, seeming to be caught up in the memories of the past.
They entered the deep mountains and passed through narrow paths, but what was shocking was that neither animals nor birds dared to approach them at all.
We walked to the edge of a cliff, and on the lake not far away, a terrifying monster noticed something. The moment it saw the old man, it ran away in a hurry.
"Grandpa, look there is someone there."
Beside the lake, there was a man lying covered in blood. The old man naturally saw the figure, but he didn't say anything, frowned, and followed his granddaughter forward.
"Grandpa, he seems to be seriously injured."
This is a handsome young man, but his pale face seems to have no life at all.
"Xiaoxuan, come here." The old man suddenly protected the girl behind him. Then, with a finger, he instantly cut through the young man's clothes, and a terrifying green light bloomed on his chest.
"The poison that transforms the heart is poisonous and fire attacks the heart." The old man could see at a glance the poison the young man had received.
"Xuanxuan, let's go." He immediately took the little girl's hand and started to leave, not wanting his granddaughter to see the scene of a dead person.
Although the girl was being pulled, she kept looking back at the young man, and then her smart eyes shone with a strange light.
"Grandpa, he looks like an older brother." The girl looked at the young man's pale face, suddenly remembered something, and said faintly.
After hearing the girl's words, the old man also looked at the young man. He had sharp angles and was very handsome. He was about the same age and had a handsome face. Indeed, he was somewhat similar to his grandson.
"Grandpa, he still has breath." The girl checked the young man's breath. Perhaps because it took too long, the blood on the young man's body had dried up, and the poison had penetrated into his heart and soul.
The old man sighed: "It is true that there is still breath. The poison that transforms the heart should not appear in this lower realm empire. The injuries suffered by this young man are not just as simple as poisoning."
"Then grandpa, can you save him?"
The old man looked at Chen Tian, his eyes a little uncertain, and shook his head: "It is not advisable to rescue people whose origins are unknown. Moreover, grandpa said that he does not want to rescue anyone anymore."
"Grandpa, Xuan'er knows that those are your angry words. You are just angry at yourself for not being able to save your father."
"Grandpa, you are a pharmacist. You save lives and heal the wounded. Isn't this your medical ethics?"
"Medical ethics?"
The old man looked at Chen Tian, but his heart was shocked.
This child knew that he was poisoned by the poison of the heart, but he still forcibly activated the huge spiritual power. Judging from the life force cut off in the body and the backward flow of blood, he must have used a power that was stronger than himself.
Moreover, judging from the physical symptoms, it was used more than once.
His body's functions were exhausted, his vitality was completely gone, and the poison in his heart had been attacking his heart for seven days. Yet he still had a breath. One can imagine how strong this young man's desire to survive was.
The old man didn't know whether it was his fault or destiny to save the young man Nian.
"Grandpa, in your eyes, good people and bad people are just people who need to be saved, right?" The girl seemed to see through the old man's thoughts.
The old man raised his head to look at Xiaoxuan and touched his head: "Good boy Xiaoxuan, when you grow up, you will not only be the most beautiful woman, but also the kindest girl."
"Since Xiaoxuan said so, grandpa will help him."
The old man's fingers were on the young man's pulse, but only for a moment. His hand suddenly flicked away, and a look of horror flashed in his eyes.
"Xiaoxuan, we can't save this person!"
"Grandpa, why? Your medical skills are unparalleled. Could it be that you can't save him?"
"Of course Grandpa can save him, but he can't!" The old man was shocked in his heart. This boy was by no means an ordinary person, not even from this lower realm.
"Grandpa, if you don't save me until you die, Xiaoxuan will stay here and never leave."
The old man was naturally aware of his granddaughter's temper, so he could only shake his head and sigh: "If this is fate, then it is also bad fate. It is a blessing and a misfortune!"
"That's it!"
The old man sighed, and finally agreed to his granddaughter's request. He put down the rhizome, took out the box from the ring, and then took out a piece of golden silver needle.
"One needle and one pagoda!"
"Nine Needles Soul Interruption!"
A total of ninety-nine and eighty-one needles pierced Chen Tian's body. A look of shock flashed in the little girl's eyes. Normally, even a dying person could survive with nine needles, but this young man had eight needles.
Eleven needles, and the old man also used his heart and soul as a guide to help the young man guide his blood, which shows how terrible his injuries are.
Even the old man with unparalleled medical skills was sweating profusely at this moment.
Moreover, after completing this, flames burst out from the old man's hands, and the next second, the golden needle burst out with blazing flames.
"Skyfire!"
The little girl was extremely surprised. Grandpa actually needed to use the supreme fire to save this young man's life!
The flame of the golden needle penetrated into the young man's body.
Soon, the originally pale body turned red and began to emit thick black smoke, which was the venom accumulated in the body. At the same time, the green venom at the heart beat and was annihilated bit by bit.
The young man's pale face actually turned crimson. The moment the vitality emerged in his body, an invisible force began to restore his broken body.
"Huh?"
The old man was surprised and continued to administer acupuncture to remove the remaining poison from the young man's body.
Time passes minute by minute.
The old man's eyes became complicated. This young man's physical illness was a bit more difficult than he imagined.
"cough."
Another half an hour passed, and the young man suddenly spit out a mouthful of dark blood. The situation seemed to be getting a little better.
"Finally, I barely managed to save my life."
"Take it!" The old man raised his hand and put the golden needle into the box. The flames passed away. He took a deep breath of cold air and sank into the spiritual field. The breath that was originally consumed slowly recovered.
"Grandpa, why doesn't he wake up yet?"
The golden needle extended his life and the poison had been removed, but the young man had not yet woken up, which made the little girl full of curiosity.
The old man frowned: "Because grandpa doesn't want him to wake up like this!"
"Grandpa, why is this?"
"Xiaoxuan, let's go back first. This young man's injury is not as simple as imagined. He just restored his body's ability to function and discharged the venom, but his injury..." The old man hesitated to speak, and then carried it on his back.
The young man and the little girl picked up the medicine and showed a pure smile.
"Um!"
The girl nodded. Although she didn't quite understand what the old man meant, she firmly believed in his words. Since grandpa had taken action to save people, he would definitely restore the young man to his former self.
