As Uncle Jiang knelt down, Dong Huiying quickly stepped aside, "Please, you mustn’t do this." Such a great courtesy, she really couldn’t accept it.
Moreover, Yi Ran bringing her and Shu Yu to Elder Sun’s place was akin to doing her a favor, so she naturally couldn’t ignore it.
Uncle Jiang still wanted to say sothing, but at that mont, a withered hand suddenly grabbed him, and before he could react, Elder Sun had dragged him away.
With a bang, the door closed. The few people outside looked at each other, puzzled, while inside the door Uncle Jiang was anxiously looking at Elder Sun.
Elder Sun took Uncle Jiang’s pulse, and after a long while... "He is, surprisingly much better??"
The Mind-Bewitching Gu, if triggered too many tis, can be lethal.
Counting today, Uncle Jiang had already had eight episodes. Each ti was like a trip to the hell’s door, if this continued, Uncle Jiang feared he wouldn’t have many days left to live.
But now, observing Uncle Jiang’s pulse, it seed as if he had only been afflicted not long ago.
Elder Sun staggered slightly, and the expressions on his face, suddenly joyful, suddenly sorrowful.
If only, if only he had t the young woman outside the room a few years earlier, could it, could it have been...
Elder Sun sighed with a smile, ti waits for no man!!
However, upon second thought, that girl’s mastery over the Poisonous Gu was so advanced, perhaps, perhaps there might be so thod?
Thinking of this, Elder Sun’s spirit lifted, and a sudden brightness shot out from his eyes, but standing opposite him, Uncle Jiang inexplicably felt a chill down his spine.
Truly because, this Elder Sun had been lifeless for many years, and now, suddenly regaining vitality, not only made people bewildered, but also sowhat eerie, like a dying man’s final recovery.
***
After Elder Sun dragged Uncle Jiang away, Dong Huiying felt it was none of her business anymore, so she pulled Shu Yu back to the room on the west side. Too many things happened today, and being busy all day, there was no ti to eat, she really was starving.
Yi Ran was very worried about Uncle Jiang, stubbornly waiting outside Elder Sun’s room. He waited and waited, hoped and hoped, until finally soone ca out.
"Uncle Jiang!" He rushed towards Uncle Jiang with red eyes. Since he was very young, his parents had died. Although he was adopted later, that person had too many offspring, though bestowed him with countless honors, they couldn’t care for him.
Until he t his master, who arranged Uncle Jiang to stay by his side. Uncle Jiang was the person who accompanied him the longest, he felt both admiration and attachnt to Uncle Jiang, like Uncle Jiang was his old father.
Uncle Jiang felt a bit at a loss, "Young master, isn’t this old servant well? You... why, why are you crying?"
It had truly been too long since he had seen Yi Ran look so tearful, it seed like since that incident back then, all his life’s tears had been shed.
Yi Ran wiped his face, stubbornly saying, "I’m not crying! It’s just my eyes feel uncomfortable!"
Afterwards, he saw Elder Sun erge from behind Uncle Jiang, and imdiately flared up, "You old scoundrel! Why don’t you drop dead? How dare you use my Uncle Jiang as a guinea pig, I’ll fight you!!"
He lunged toward Elder Sun with bared teeth and claws, Elder Sun’s eyes twitched, then coldly dodged aside. He looked disdainfully at Yi Ran, "Old Jiang is just lucky! That little kid mixed the Mind-bewitching Powder, I’ve slled that kind of powder before. Your senior sister’s skills, aren’t you aware of them? But even the Mind-bewitching Powder your senior sister concocted isn’t as good as this person’s!"
