Chapter 38 Preparing Medication
Lin Chen, Qian Fu Zhang, Bai Fu Zhang and Yat Si, the three of them walked together towards Qian Fu Zhang's sister's residence. At the same time, Qian Fu Zhang also told Lin Chen about the situation along the way.
It turned out that the younger sister of Chifu Zhang was also a member of the Ji Feng Mercenary Group, and even her husband was one. Unfortunately, 15 years ago, Chifu Zhang's brother-in-law died in an accident during a mission, which had a great impact on his sister.
But fortunately, at that time there was still a son. The son let his sister come over, although these years were relatively bitter, but the son was all his hope.
Unfortunately, just a week ago, even the only son who was considered to be the hope had already died. This made the sister of Qian Fuzhang unable to hold on any longer. Since the day she received the news and fainted, she has been lying in bed and can't get up again. In just one short week, her whole person became thin and weak.
She was disheartened and exhausted, it was clear that she could no longer hold on. The above was the situation described by Qian Fuzhang to Lin Chen. Her husband had passed away, but fortunately, she had a son, which barely allowed her to hold on. However, now that even her son was gone, Qian Fuzhang truly did not know what to do and could only watch as his sister grew thinner day by day.
"Oh, I see...", nodded, Lin Chen's heart was also secretly calculating, this task is very difficult to complete, for a person who has given up on life, it's impossible to bring her back.
After all, from ancient times to the present, too many infatuated people have died because of this. How many anxious relatives and friends? But how many are really able to bring people back and untie the knot in their hearts?
Soon, Lin Chen and the others arrived in front of a small house, about 70-80 square meters in size, located on the edge of the base. At this time, the tightly closed door was opened, and a girl of about 17 or 18 years old came out carrying a basin, her face also looking downcast.
"Xiao Mei, how are things?", he reached out to stop the girl's bowing motion and asked in a low voice.
With a hint of pain in her eyes, the girl simply shook her head, her gloomy expression saying it all without uttering a word, and everyone knew that things were not going well.
"Huh?", looking at the girl who walked out, Lin Chen slightly furrowed his brow, he noticed something unusual, and after a moment of contemplation, he asked Qian Fuzhang: "Who is this girl?"
"Oh, this is Xiao Mei, an ordinary member of the mercenary group, but she's a novice water element mage. Originally, she and my nephew were a couple, already engaged to be married next month... but...", as he spoke, Qian Fuzhang let out a melancholic sigh, while Xiao Mei, holding a basin beside him, burst into tears.
"Alright, Xiaomei, you don't have to come here again. I'll let other maids take care of things here. You should find a better family...". Looking at Xiaomei's tearful face, Qianfuzhang was also moved. After all, at this time, Xiaomei didn't leave, but instead took on the responsibility of taking care of her own sister. This behavior deeply moved Qianfuzhang.
"No! This is something I should do!", said Xiaomei firmly, shaking her head, and then slightly bowing to everyone before taking the water away.
"Alright, I'm going in. You guys wait outside," Lin Chen said as he watched Xiao Mei leave, then turned to Qian Fu Zhang and Bai Fu Zhang before walking in himself. As his follower, Ate also followed behind him, wagging his tail.
Pushing open the door, a wan woman lay on the bed, looking very unwell, seemingly like someone who was seriously ill. Upon hearing the sound of the door opening, she merely turned her head to take a look, then turned away, showing no concern for the intrusion of a stranger.
"What? Are you not afraid that I'll steal something from you?" Seeing the woman's reaction, Lin Chen walked straight to the bedside and asked the woman lying on the bed. Although Lin Chen could recover from his frail body and exhausted spirit, but this heart disease, this dead heart, was not something that medicine could cure.
"If you've taken a liking to something, just take it for yourself...", her eyes rolled slightly as she looked at Lin Chen, and the woman spoke up in a weak and hoarse voice.
"What if I were to take your life?" Lin Chen flipped his hand, and his perfect-grade iron sword appeared, exuding a fierce killing intent as he said, raising his perfect-grade longsword, poised to strike.
"You can take my life if you want it...", with her life in danger, this woman instead closed her eyes and said calmly, with a hint of relief on her face. This made Lin Chen feel helpless - someone who didn't even want to live, how could they be easily saved?
Looking at the woman's appearance of waiting for death with her eyes closed, Lin Chen couldn't help but put away his iron sword and said: "I really don't understand, what is this attitude of yours now? Waiting for death with your eyes closed? If you die, what about those who care about you? Have you ever thought about them? Do you know how anxious your brother is right now?"
Upon hearing Lin Chen's words, the woman seemed to have reacted and opened her closed eyes. Seeing this, Lin Chen was overjoyed that she had a reaction.
However, the woman's next words made Lin Chen's heart sink to the bottom. "Alright young man, you're here to persuade me, right? You can go back now, I've crossed more bridges than you've walked roads, and what you said, many people have told me before, I'm tired of hearing it".
"...", thinking of the woman's previous husband who had also died, Lin Chen understood that back then many people must have told her similar things, but unexpectedly it didn't have any effect.
"Alright, you can go now, don't come back to disturb me again." The woman slowly shook her head and gave the order to leave, no longer paying attention to Lin Chen. She lay alone on the bed, lost in thought, thinking about her son and her husband who had passed away many years ago...
He was directly kicked out by the other party, and Lin Chen was also very helpless. In the end, Lin Chen had no choice but to flip his hand, and a bottle of medicine appeared in his hand, which was a bottle of violent medicine.
This is a legendary potion that can drive the target into a frenzied state, indiscriminate of friend or foe. Originally meant to disrupt BOSSes, Lin Chen was now preparing to use it here.
