Chapter 5: My Time Has Come

  Bleeding?

  I lowered my head and looked down, and as expected, my shoulder was already a bloody red, the blood gushing out like a fountain.

  Damn it!

  Is that man a dog? He bites people so fiercely!

  The beauty approached me, took out a pack of tissues from his pocket and handed it to me.

  "Come with me to the hospital!"

  The beauty's expression was quite urgent, it could be seen that she was worried about me.

  "It's nothing, just a minor injury, haha, it's no big deal for me, hahaha..."

  In front of a beauty, I mustn't show the slightest cowardice. Let alone being bitten by someone, even if I'm bitten by a dog, I shouldn't say it hurts.

  "It's all over, it's all over." The beauty looked at my bleeding wound and muttered, "The blood has turned black, I've been poisoned."

  What? The blood has turned black?

  I changed color upon hearing this and hastily looked at the wound again.

  The beauty said it was true, and at this moment the blood flowing out was no longer red but turned black, so dark that it was almost purple.

  Will blood turn black if bitten by someone? What's the logic behind this? Never heard of it before?

  "Come on, follow me!"

  The beauty became more anxious, she pulled over my hand and dragged me to run.

  She ran ahead, I followed behind, her elegant running posture made me dizzy, making me forget that I was running.

  I was thinking, if Xu Yan had half of this beauty's sensuality, I would have acknowledged that child.

  The ghost didn't know how long he had run, but the beauty brought me in front of a small clinic.

  The outpatient department is very small and has no striking decorations. There is only a sign standing outside the door, on which four big characters are written: "Veterinary Outpatient Department".

  Veterinarian?

  Beautiful girl, are you desperate? You actually brought me to a veterinary clinic?

  "Old Wang, Old Wang." The beautiful woman pushed open the door and shouted twice inside.

  It seems that the beauty knows people in this clinic.

  "Wrong, wrong." I pulled the beauty, "This doesn't seem like a place for people to see a doctor?"

  To avoid embarrassing the beauty, I tactfully reminded her.

  The beauty seemed to have not heard what I said, and didn't even glance at me.

  "The old man has come, he's finally here." Someone had finally emerged from the clinic.

  That man was a man wearing a white nurse uniform, looking ordinary, neither handsome nor ugly, about forty years old, and an uncle-like figure.

  "He was bitten by your son! You'd better take a look." The beautiful woman pointed at me and shouted to the big uncle.

  Old Wang was stunned for a moment and then ran over with a tense expression.

  He lowered his head and sniffed at my wound with his nose.

  "It's indeed the dog's son who hurts people with his words!" Old Wang concluded.

  "Is that your son?" I asked.

  "It's precisely my old fellow's son!" Old Wang said with a fist bump.

  "You're really a good-for-nothing." I sneered.

  "Never mind all that," the beauty shouted at Old Wang, "Is there still a way to save him?"

  Old Wang shook his head and let out a sigh.

  "Even if Hua Tuo were alive and Bian Que were reborn, I'm afraid there would be no way to save him. The young master can only wish for good fortune."

  "What's the point of all this nonsense?" I glared at Old Wang.

  "Cough! Cough!" Old Wang coughed and said, "No medicine can save him, his life is almost gone!"

  What's going on?

  Is a person going to die just because they were bitten? Do you think your son is a venomous snake?

  I naturally didn't believe what he said.

  Some people believed it.

  That person is the beautiful woman next to me.

  "Is it really hopeless?" The beauty asked with some disappointment.

  Old Wang sighed and shook his head.

  "He can't die!" The beauty pointed at me and said, "He is Xiaoyan's husband, he can't die, at least not like this."

  Old Wang listened to the beauty's words and suddenly looked me up and down.

  "Xiao Yan's husband is actually a mortal?" Old Wang said in surprise.

  "It doesn't matter if he's just an ordinary person, as long as he's not dead!" The beauty said anxiously, "If he dies, I won't be able to explain it to Xiaoyan, and our plan will be completely ruined. You must think of a way to save his life."

  Under the beautiful woman's urgent inquiry, Old Wang fell into deep thought.

  Who is Little Swallow?

  What husband?

  I'm getting confused. Is this beauty related to Xu Yan?

  I'm going!

  No way! Am I being fooled again?

  "Who is this Little Swallow you're talking about?" I asked, looking at the beautiful woman.

  "Your wife." The beauty glared at me and let out a cold snort.

  "My wife? Who is my wife?" I bitterly smiled, unsure why this beauty suddenly changed her expression.

  "Xu Yan!" The beauty continued to hum coldly.

  Damn it!

  As expected, you're fooling me again.

  Now I completely understand, it must be that Xu Yan set me up, using this beauty to lure me here with ulterior motives. Otherwise, such a beautiful girl wouldn't have agreed to meet so easily, would she?

  "So you're in cahoots with each other." I said through gritted teeth.

  "Right." The beauty admitted, "I am Ali, Xu Yan's sister. I asked you to come here this time just for the sake of Xu Yan and your child."

  Everything is calculated, it turns out everything is calculated.

  At that time, I knew all this, and my heart was almost broken into pieces.

  "What's with my kid? What's with my wife? I don't have any relationship with her at all! Can you guys stop being so stubborn and leave me alone? I also have my own life." I shouted at Ah Li.

  "Didn't Old Turtle Grandfather explain everything clearly to you yesterday?" Ah Li looked at me with surprise and asked.

  Old Turtle Grandpa?

  Could it be that green-headed turtle?

  Damn it. Wasn't yesterday's event just a dream? Did I really encounter a monster?

  "You and Xiaoyan are destined to be together." Ah Li seemed to see through my doubts, "Old Turtle Grandpa gave you a hat, helping you have the crystal of love."

  What she said made me realize that I wasn't dreaming when I encountered a green-headed turtle yesterday.

  I looked at this beauty and gestured for her to continue. I really wanted to quickly figure out what the hell was going on?

  "Didn't Old Turtle Grandfather tell you everything?" Ah Li looked at me and asked.

  I shook my head woodenly.

  "Oh. After you fainted yesterday, Old Turtle Grandpa handed you over to me." Ah Li explained why I ended up in the bar, but this wasn't what I wanted to hear. What the hell was going on? What's with Xu Yan? What's with Old Wugui? What's with that hat?

  "Other things, Old Turtle Grandfather didn't tell you, there must be a reason. Maybe it's not time to tell you all this yet! You only need to know that Xu Yan is your wife and you have a daughter."

  I listened to Ah Li's words, and my tears almost fell. I didn't know anything, but inexplicably gained a wife and daughter. Is this the rhythm of heaven forcing me to become a father?

  What is heavenly principle? What is heavenly principle?

  "Don't ask, it's not the time to talk about these things now." Ah Li saw that I was about to speak again and she waved her hand at me, indicating for me to stop talking. "The thing that bit you is a poisonous dog monster, its teeth have poison on them, and as a mortal, you can't resist this kind of toxicity, you might die."

  A Li said these words with a very heavy expression, and it seems like he's not deceiving me.

  Dog monster? It turns out that person is really a dog.

  Will I die? Die from being bitten by a dog?

  I looked at the wound and saw black blood flowing out, suddenly feeling that what Ah Li said was true.

  Dad! Mom!

  I met a monster.

  Not one, but several.

  The dog bit me, I'm going to die!

  Is it just going to end like this?

  Is Xu Yan my wife? Whose child is it?

  It doesn't matter anymore, because I'm going to be poisoned to death by a poisonous dog monster anyway.

  "Are you scared?" Ah Li frowned and asked me a sentence.

  "I'm...not...afraid." I said with my mouth, but my two legs were very honest and started trembling.

  "I'll try my best to think of a way to save you." Ah Li said, "But you have to promise me, if you can survive, you must take good care of Xiao Yan and your daughter."

  "Sister, as long as I can survive, even if you make me recognize two more wives and two more daughters, I'm willing." I said with tears.

  The key is whether Laozi can survive or not. Listening to what that old Wang said, looking at the expression of that old Wang, I reckon he's not far from death.

  Who can save me?

  I don't want to die!

  Save me? Who can save me?

  "I can!"

  When I was at a loss for what to do next, Old Wang suddenly broke into a smile. He came out of his contemplative state and patted me on the shoulder.

  "There are two ways!" Old Wang said confidently to me.
