"I have a friend who is a medical fairy. He can save you." Yuchen lowered his head and looked at me, "Lin Xi, if you bear with it for a while, the pain will soon stop."
My body was shaking with pain. When I heard Yuchen say this, I nodded.
Not many soul-eating curses entered my body. Because there were not many, they gnawed at the soul very slowly. My life was not in danger for a while, but because I couldn't die, the pain became longer.
.
Yuchen took me to the foot of a barren mountain. It was early autumn, when the vegetation was at its most lush, but the mountains here were bare, not even a single green leaf could be seen.
Yuchen carried me up the mountain. Halfway up the mountain, I saw a series of graves on the mountain, one after another. I don't know how many people were buried here.
Maybe because there are too many graves, I feel that the temperature around me has dropped a lot, and the wind blowing has a cold and evil aura.
I can't help but wonder, do any immortals live in a place like this?
After climbing over a hill, there was no road ahead. A large green swamp blocked our way. There were many bones stuck in the swamp. Judging from their shapes, they belonged to humans and animals.
Yuchen made a magic formula with one hand and was about to lead me through the swamp. At this time, a clear child's voice suddenly came over, "Is it the young master?"
As the children's voice came, a white boat rowed over from the swamp. Standing on the boat was a boy who looked about twelve or thirteen years old. The boy was wearing a blue robe, had short hair, and was handsome. Although he was still a child,
A sense of nobility and nobility had begun to appear on my body. Seeing this young man, I felt that there might really be an immortal here.
The boat stopped in front of us, and the young man saluted Yuchen, "Master, Master expected you to come back today, so he sent me to pick you up. Please get on the boat."
Yuchen didn't say anything, he hugged me and jumped onto the boat.
The young man seemed to be used to Yuchen's indifferent attitude. He saluted me again and then held the boat to the other side.
I felt strange and asked Yuchen in a low voice, "Why did he call you Master?"
Upon hearing the question I asked, Yuchen's face suddenly darkened, and he glared at me, "Why do you have so many!"
Yuchen didn't want to tell me. I thought it was another secret of his. But when we got there, the answer to this question suddenly popped out.
When we got to the other side and got off the boat, the young man led Yuchen and I through several cemeteries, and finally came to a farmhouse. Of course I knew there wouldn't be a farmhouse in this kind of place, mainly because the house in front of me looked too much like an ordinary household.
There are people living in the mountains.
The house is an adobe bungalow, with a total of four rooms including the kitchen. A fence made of bamboo strips serves as the courtyard wall. On one side of the yard are chickens, ducks, pigs and dogs, and on the other side is a cultivated vegetable field with green crops.
vegetable.
When I saw such a down-to-earth courtyard, I didn't feel friendly, but rather very strange.
Because here, the whole mountain is dead, without plants or animals, surrounded by graveyards, and there is an air of death everywhere. But this small courtyard is full of life, as if the life of the whole mountain is filled with this
The small courtyard was absorbed.
"Yu Chen, hehe, I knew that sooner or later you would beg me, an old man." I was thinking wildly when an old man with white hair and beard walked out of the house.
The old man is very old, he looks to be eighty or ninety years old. He is thin and stooped. At first glance, he looks like an old Liu Luoguo. He is wearing long gray cloth clothes and trousers, and has long gray hair.
, using a chopstick, casually tied it on the top of his head. In fact, he had very few hairs left, and he was completely bald in front, revealing a shiny bald head.
When he saw Yuchen, the old man's eyes lit up, like a thief seeing money. The word greed was clearly written in the old man's eyes.
Although I haven't been in court for a long time, I think I've seen a lot of immortals. I can't feel any immortality from the old man in front of me, and just looking at the old man's appearance, he looks like an immortal.
Home?
"Cure her." Yuchen said.
Hearing Yuchen speak, the old man turned his head and glanced at me, really just a glance, and then he turned his attention to Yuchen again, staring at him greedily, as if he was afraid that Yuchen would run away.
If it weren't for the old man's age, I would have suspected that the old man was attracted to Yuchen!
I was about to say that I am a patient and see if I can do it? Before I could say anything, I heard the old man say casually, "Isn't it just the Soul-Eating Curse? No problem, I can solve it."
This casual tone is like a common cold caused by the Soul-Eating Curse.
I couldn't help being startled and looked at the old man again.
The old man ignored my gaze at all. He still stared at Yuchen, grinned, and said with a sinister look on his face, "Yuchen, it's okay to let me help you save people, but you have to agree to one condition. You know, I'll do it early
I just like you."
Hearing this, I almost spit out a mouthful of blood on the spot.
He really fell in love with Yuchen! Yuchen is suitable for both men and women, so I accept it. But is it okay for people of all ages?!
Just as I was about to speak, the old man said again, "If you accept me as your father, I will save her."
My heart is like a roller coaster.
The old man's heavy breathing almost sent me away. I just breathed a sigh of relief, but then my heart started to rise again. I looked at Yuchen, "Yuchen..."
I want to live, but I don’t want Yuchen to feel wronged because of me.
Yuchen is the last true dragon in the world, with a noble status. Not only the immortals in the earth world, but also the man who chased us just now, when he saw Yuchen's true form, he also respected him as the black dragon. It can be seen that Yuchen also has a certain status in the heaven.
status.
And this crooked old man, who did he think he was, actually wanted Yuchen to call him daddy!
Yuchen is arrogant. Asking him to recognize the old man as his father is no different from slapping him in public. Moreover, this slap will spread throughout the immortal world, letting all the immortals know that Yuchen's face has been slapped.
He is already known as a traitor, and if this kind of thing is reported again, how will he be able to gain a foothold in the fairy world in the future!
I couldn't bear the thought of him doing this for me. Just as I was about to make a decision for him, I heard Yuchen suddenly say, "Okay, I promise you."
I was shocked, "Don't...cough cough cough!"
Due to the excitement, a bloody smell came up, making me cough uncontrollably. I coughed out the blood in my chest, and my body shivered in discomfort.
I was angry and anxious, and I looked like I was forcing Yuchen to save me.
I was speechless, so I grabbed Yuchen's arm hard, stared at him with my eyes wide open. I hoped he could read my thoughts.
Yuchen patted my back to help me calm down and said, "Don't worry about me. My reputation is already very bad. I don't care about one or two more infamy."
The old man nodded and said in agreement, "Yes, this means that you are not afraid of being bitten by lice. He is indeed the good son I like. I want to go with the old man. Besides, reputation is something false.
It’s not like we can eat it. Son, we don’t care about that.”
The old man spoke of his son. Yuchen frowned, his black eyes glowing coldly, but he suppressed his anger and said, "Save her!"
The old man shook his head, "You have to pay homage to your ancestors first, and then our relationship is confirmed before I can save you."
Yuchen said coldly, "Hurry up then!"
The old man's apprentice moved out a table, and then moved out blank tablets and placed them on the table.
I asked in confusion, "Why don't these tablets have names?"
The old man glanced at me impatiently, but still explained to me, "These tablets are for my ancestors, but I forgot the names of my ancestors. Anyway, it's just a formality. Those old guys are so dead."
For many years, I haven’t pointed to them to bless me. It doesn’t matter if they have names or not.”
Hearing this, I was stunned.
Is this old man's mind a little abnormal? He didn't know the names of his ancestors, so he just enshrined a bunch of blank tablets. How could a normal person do this kind of operation?
After all the tablets were moved out, the old man asked Yuchen to kowtow to the empty tablets one by one.
There were dozens of memorial tablets, so Yuchen had to kowtow dozens of times. I felt heartbroken and wanted to forget it and stop suffering this humiliation.
Yuchen seemed to have guessed that I would stop him. He didn't hesitate for a second. He straightened his back, knelt down, kowtowed, offered incense, then stood up and continued to kneel.
I looked at him, tears rolling down my face.
For me, he even put down his pride and dignity. How could I not love such a man!
After paying homage to the blank tablet, the old man's disciple brought tea. Yuchen knelt on the ground, offered the old man a cup of tea, and then called out in a suppressed voice, "Father."
The old man probably saw that Yuchen's patience had reached its limit. He didn't dare to raise the issue of Yuchen's address. He drank the tea with a smile, and then asked Yuchen to carry me into the house. He wanted to treat me.
The room was simply decorated, but still clean. After Yuchen put me on the kang, the old man let Yuchen go out.
I was lying on the kang, and I was about to ask the old man how he planned to treat me, but when I turned around, I saw a fox mask hanging on the wall.
