??
This wait wasn't just a short while, Xia Lao Liu waited for more than an hour at the door, and he even finished smoking a whole pack of cigarettes. Lao Liu couldn't wait any longer, hearing no movement in the room for half a day, after fiddling around for half a day, finally decided to break in. Upon entering, he saw that Mang A Mao was already lying on the ground, Lao Liu went forward and tested him, and found that there was no more air coming out of his nose.
Blind Ah Mao died, and on the ground next to him was a crooked line of words: Virgin blood can save.
Many people have talked about Ah Mao, some say he's a swindler who spent his whole life deceiving others and was eventually disowned by his children; others claim that Blind Ah Mao's fortune-telling skills are unmatched within a hundred miles, but his downfall was due to revealing too many heavenly secrets. When Ah Mao passed away, the coffin was bought for him by Xia Lao Liu in the name of Cha Wenbin, who also provided all the funeral attire from head to toe. Later, many people said that on the day of Ah Mao's funeral, Cha Wenbin cried more bitterly than his children, probably because he felt indebted to no one else in this life except for Blind Ah Mao, whom he had never wronged.
As for how Blind Ah Mao later came up with that method for Cha Wenbin, no one knows anymore. I heard from He Tu that Blind Ah Mao probably used his own life to calculate this fate for Cha Wenbin. At that time, everything was just treating a dead horse as if it were alive, but where could they find virgin blood?
It's said that Xia Lao Liu also tacitly approved of Gun Fei's actions at the time, turning a blind eye and letting her go. The girl went in with red eyes and came out with red eyes. The next day, Cha Wenbin really woke up, slowly able to eat and drink, and the fever on his body subsided. Cha Wenbin himself didn't know about this matter, and Gun Fei didn't reveal it either. However, Xia Lao Liu, taking responsibility for both parties, ultimately couldn't keep it under wraps and eventually exposed the matter not long after.
Zha Wenbin stayed in his old home in northwest Zhejiang for over half a month, and his body had basically recovered. He looked a bit older than before, and compared to Old Xia of the same age, Zha Wenbin's eyes already had a few wrinkles. The queen didn't show any unusual behavior, she was still as usual, and Old Xia also came out from the government office. However, some bad news came from afar at this moment.
Yuan Xiaobai, no, now she's changed her name to Leng Yiran. This girl has gotten into some trouble, and it's not a small problem either. After arriving at Director Leng's house in the provincial city, everything seemed normal, but she had completely lost her memory. She couldn't even remember what she did just a second ago, and she couldn't recall her own name. It wasn't until over a month later that they received a call from Shanghai and found out about this. Mr. Yuan was unable to go because of his prior agreement with Cha Wenbin, so he entrusted the matter to Cha Wenbin instead.
Lao Xia and Cha Wenbin arrived at a hospital in the provincial city to see the girl, whose eyes were dull. The hospital's test report was even more unbelievable: this twenty-year-old girl was constantly changing, if Cha Wenbin's examination report at the time showed that he was accelerating aging, then Leng Yiran was completely different. Her physical functions showed a trend of reverse growth, and both her body and organs were regressing, including her memory!
If a person's trajectory is likened to a clock, at birth it would be 0 o'clock. Now Lao Xia should be around 10 am, while Zha Wenbin is at 11 am. Previously, Zha Wenbin was moving clockwise faster than Lao Xia, but now their pace has started to synchronize. As for Yuan Xiaobai, also known as Leng Yiran, she is currently at 8 am and moves counterclockwise. By the time Lao Xia reaches 11 am, Leng Yiran would have already gone back to 1 am, her life is flowing backwards!
This is a paradox, human life follows the natural law, sowing and sprouting, blooming and bearing fruit, withering and dying. Everything in nature develops according to this process, and humans are no exception, but Xiaobai is an exception. Looking at her empty eyes, Zha Wenbin's heart was not feeling well, if he had known the outcome from the beginning, it would have been better to let her go.
"Xiao Bai?" Zhang Wenbin called out to the woman in front of him. She turned her head and looked at this man, but the next second she said: "Sorry, who are you? Why are you here?"
Then, she seemed to fall into a panic and immediately asked: "Who are you? How did I get here?" Listening to her voice like a silver bell of a girl, Lao Xia and Cha Wenbin left the ward under the nurse's urging.
"Her height has shortened by five centimeters within a week, and according to bone density measurements, we found that she is regressing from adolescence to pre-adolescence..." Several experts were explaining their diagnosis with gloomy faces, a result that had exceeded their understanding of science.
Perhaps this is the price! The price of that Jiangxi Taoist creating this evil technique was such, Mr. Yuan and Leng Zong outside the door looked at Cha Wenbin walking out from inside, they all knew that the "daughter" inside had no hope left, their only reliance now rested on this man who aged ten years in one night.
"Take her out of the hospital, I want to take her home." This was his only request.
What's wrong? Zha Wenbin was thinking, when he was unconscious, he vaguely felt that his time was passing quickly, and the change was something he could feel. The mirror wouldn't lie, would Xiaobai be exactly the opposite of himself?
Unfortunately, Blind Ah Mao is no longer around, he really wanted to ask that old man who saved his life.
"Uncle, I want to ask you something." Zha Wenbin returned home and immediately asked Xia Laoliu: "How did I wake up?"
Xia Lao Liu was drinking wine, and in his tone, there was a hint of inquiry. He raised his head and glanced at Huan Fei, who was busy cleaning up the household chores. The woman hastily washed her hands and walked out the door.
He said slowly and calmly: "I don't remember either. Blind Ah Mao didn't leave a word before he left."
"Uncle, I have no father or mother, and my master left early. I consider Xiaoyi as a brother, so I regard you as a family member. Every time I ask about this matter after waking up, you always dodge and evade. I'm not stupid, I know you're hiding something from me. Originally, you didn't want to say anything, and I wouldn't have asked further. But now that Xiaobai has also encountered the same problem, I need to find a way to save her. You can't expect me to go underground to look for Master Amu, right? Uncle, if you really know something, please tell me! I beg of you!" As he spoke, Cha Wenbin was about to kneel down in front of Xia Lao Liu. Xia Lao Liu's heart wasn't feeling good either; he was originally a straightforward person and had always treated Fangfei like his own daughter. The thoughts of this young man were as clear as a mirror to him, an experienced person. Anyone with discerning eyes could see that Fangfei indeed had feelings for Wenbin, but Wenbin seemed to have only regarded her as a neighbor's younger sister all along.
"Alas, it's really a sin." Xia Lao Liu sighed and said: "Get up, I'll ask you something first. If your uncle tells you about an engagement, would you agree or not?"
Zha Wenbin was taken aback, he never expected Xia Laoliu to bring this up with him now. He simply said: "Uncle, I'm not joking with you, we're in a critical situation and the fire is burning our eyebrows, where can we still talk about this? Besides, I'm still young..."
"Hey, what's all the fuss about? I'm thinking of finding a wife to keep my rascal son in line too, he's been acting like a total hoodlum lately." Then, with a smile, he turned around and asked: "What do you think of that girl, Bao Fei?"
Cha Wenbin had no choice but to echo: "It's pretty good, Banfei sister is virtuous and manages the household well, she's also educated, and filial to you both elders. It's not bad for Xiaoyi."
"Alright, that little rabbit is not worthy of you, I was planning to marry her off to you." Before Zhang Wenbin could respond, Xia Laoliu continued: "This way, since you don't have any relatives to take charge, we'll report this matter to your aunt and me to arrange. Later, we'll renovate that house for you, and on a good day, we'll get the marriage settled!"
"This...this won't do," Cha Wenbin shook his head repeatedly, "It won't do, it absolutely won't do. Uncle, you can't be so reckless. How could someone like me, a rustic child, possibly be a match for Princess Ping's younger sister?"
"Shut up!" Xia Lao Liu burst into anger, still with a bit of domineering air: "I said it's settled, and that's final!"
"No way!" Cha Wenbin also stood up suddenly and said: "You can't mess with the mandarin ducks' score!"
Xia Lao Liu estimated that he had also drunk a lot of wine, and with what happened the previous few days still fresh in his mind, he said: "What's wrong? Say something."
"Is there someone in your heart?" "Who?"
Just as the two were arguing, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside the house. Xia Laoliu's heart skipped a beat, thinking that perhaps the girl was eavesdropping outside? Indeed, not long after, he saw through the window that Pingfei was wiping away tears and running out, so he quickly got up and shouted to Lao Xia: "Xiao Yi ah, no Autumn Stone ah, what are you standing there for, hurry up and chase your sister back!"
Lao Xia was also puzzled, he was taking care of Xiao Bai in the house. When he heard Lao Liu's order, he rushed out to chase after Cui Fei. Lao Liu pointed at Cha Wenbin's nose and said: "You, you, this kid really doesn't know what's good for him, has his conscience been eaten by a dog? Get out, get out, get out! Wherever you came from, go back there, I don't want to see you now!"
"Uncle, if I did something wrong, you can scold me or hit me, it's fine. But this matter of marriage, I don't want to delay Princess Ping's happiness, so sorry!" He said and started walking out, but hearing his words, Xia Lao Liu's heart was even more furious, fueled by the wine, he shouted: "You stand still for me!" With a slap on the ear, he hit Zhang Wenbin's forehead and scolded: "You still know she has a future happiness? You've done that to her, how can you call it her future happiness? You're an inhumane beast! Listen well, do you want to know what woke you up? I'll tell you, it was her using her own body to save your life. Blind Ah Mao left five words: 'Virgin blood can save!'". Still not satisfied with scolding, Xia Lao Liu kicked him again, this time completely stunning Zhang Wenbin, his heart unable to accept such a huge amount of information at once, he only stupidly asked one sentence:
"Is everything Uncle said true?"
Xia Lao Liu shouted impatiently: "If you're a man, go and get her back for me. If she loses a single hair, I'll break one of your legs!"
After that, I don't know how Wenbin faced the concubine, including He Tu. For his master's wife who had never been veiled before, he had never heard a word from his master's mouth. All he knew was that every year when his master went to sweep the tomb on Qingming Festival, he would sit alone in front of the tombstone for a while. Maybe he had feelings for that woman, maybe he felt more guilty towards her, but at least in this life, there was only one woman, named "Concubine Yu".
