Chapter 12 Recuperation
Ruan Zhan was seriously injured.
Wan Li sent him to the hospital on the spot, saying that he had slipped and fallen from a height. He had three broken ribs and minor internal bleeding. Although he didn't need surgery, he had to be hospitalized.
It stands to reason that although the two evil spirits have very high magic power, they cannot defeat Ruan Zhan. Ruan Zhan has experienced too many dangers, defeating scholars who have practiced for hundreds of years, bloodthirsty witches from abroad, Japanese onmyoji and shikigami, geniuses who use poison, a pair of demon boys with three hundred years of magic power, and humans like Sima Nan Masters will never fall into their hands.
However, the news they brought was too shocking, which confused Ruan Zhan first, and then used the nature of father and son to make Ruan Zhan's powerful killing moves all come back to him. Not only was his body hurt, but also his consciousness. He has also been unconscious, and the spell has obviously damaged his mind.
Looking at Ruan Zhan lying on the bed, Xiaoxia was very scared, fearing that he would die of serious injuries. She has seen him injured. In fact, ever since he got involved in the supernatural incident, which battle has he not tried his best? In which battle is the weak defeating the strong? Which battle will not end in failure? But no matter how seriously injured he was, even after the tragic victory against Sima Nan in Hongqing Town, he still looked extremely strong, as if nothing in the world could defeat him. But now, looking at him lying motionless on the bed, his face was as white as paper and his lips were bloodless, like a snow mountain that could melt at any time. When a person who is usually the strongest shows such vulnerability, it will make people feel sad inexplicably. What's more, this person is what Xiaoxia loves so much. Looking at him, her heart aches to the point of bleeding!
Keeping him, she began to blame herself. If she did not appear in his life, maybe he would live a safe and comfortable life without having to face so many hardships and hardships. She must have brought the disaster to him! Even this time it's the same. If she doesn't come back, those two evil spirits won't come to her, and then they won't recognize who Ruan Zhan is, let alone hurt him!
Carefully lying beside the bed, she gently hugged Ruan Zhan's neck and pressed her cheek against his cold face. Xiaoxia cried silently, and her tears stained Ruan Zhan's face. She was lucky to meet him, but to him, maybe she was a devil!
"I don't think this will help his recovery." As soon as Wan Li walked into the ward door, he saw Xiao Xia crying heartbrokenly, and comforted him, "He just had some of his sensory functions blocked due to the backlash of the spell. , didn’t Bao Datong say that? With his authentic Taoism, Ah Zhan will soon be able to recover his spirit. As for his body - just like what your favorite cartoon said, he has the same resilience as a dog , don’t worry, he will be fine soon.”
Xiao Xia originally just cried silently, but when Wan Li comforted her, she couldn't help but start sobbing.
"Hey, hey, okay, don't cry." Wan Li patted Xiaoxia's head, "This is very unlucky, as if he is dead and you are his widow. Besides, he just can't wake up yet. Come here, maybe you know very well that if you are so sad, he will be sad too."
"It's all my fault!"
"It's strange, why do I blame you?" Wanli Ren Xiaoxia held on to his sleeve and said with a smile, "Don't blame yourself for everything, don't you think there is an arrangement somewhere? When I was in school, I always thought that my destiny was up to me. Now I understand that there is an invisible thread in this world that involves people who are destined to be together. Whether you are willing or not, you have to face it. Believe me, you don’t Bringing disaster to him, maybe you gave him a chance to re-understand his life and future. You see, I was right, he kept silent, expressing his acquiescence. Haha."
Xiao Xia knew that Wan Li was comforting her, but seeing Ruan Zhan's appearance, she could not relax no matter what. It was not until three days later that Bao Datong continued to use Taoist magic to help him resolve the backlash spells accumulated in his body. , Ruan Zhan finally woke up.
However, although his consciousness recovered, he developed a high fever, and his illness became severe and urgent. It seemed that all the loneliness and fragility he had experienced since childhood, all the pain caused by strength, and all the consequences of forcing himself were here. All injuries broke out in the field.
Xiao Xiayi took care of him without hesitation, refusing to leave anything to others, feeding him medicine, feeding him, talking with him to relieve his boredom, and did not go back to the office. He did not take anything to heart, and his daily life They revolve around Ruan Zhan. In fact, Ruan Zhan was just weak and his broken ribs had healed long ago. It was not that he couldn't take care of himself, but he forced Xiaoxia to act like a paralyzed patient and refused to let him do anything. She was so nervous that Ruan Zhan had no choice but to cooperate with her. Bao Datong once joked that he never thought that a girl like Xiao Xia, who looked prickly all over her body, could turn out to be a good wife and mother. He kept clamoring to pursue Xiao Xia publicly when Ruan Zhan got better.
As far as Ruan Zhan is concerned, although he was **** by Xiao Xia and was unable to be free, this period of time was the happiest time in his life. He has never been cared for so meticulously, and he has never been so close to Xiaoxia. Looking at her crimson cheeks, her charming eyes, and her bright smile every day, I suddenly felt an infinite attachment to this world.
In the past, he didn't care about this life at all. Even though he was a little nervous and sad after hearing about the three disasters, he gradually changed to a mentality of calmly accepting his fate. But when Xiaoxia slowly penetrated into all his life, he suddenly realized that habits are a terrible thing. He was used to loving her, used to treating her tenderly, used to seeing her every day, used to having her by his side, which made him greedy for the feeling of being with her, and also gave birth to a strong desire to create a transition. The miracle of robbery, I want to continue living, even if I just stay by her side!
Even, he began to think that if he could survive this life-threatening situation, he could be with her!
When he was injured, he never mentioned anything about his father. In fact, he kept thinking about it. However, to find out the answer, he must first find those two evil spirits. With his current physical condition, it is simply impossible. He was not an impulsive personality, so he kept silent and secretly practiced his spells, hoping to maximize his abilities. After more than two months, Xiaoxia finally allowed Ruan Zhan to move around freely, and he began physical exercise.
Those two villains know about their father, so they must be caught and forced to tell them. And later from Xiao Xia's mouth, he heard that they had hurt her, so they would have to die. No one can hurt Xiao Xia without paying the price. If he hadn't followed Xiao Xia secretly that day because he thought Xiao Xia's words were flashy, they might have killed Xiao Xia and Wan Li.
These two people, one is a friend who has a life-long friendship, and the other is his most beloved in the world, he must protect him!
"Are you going to find those two evil spirits?" Nothing about him could be hidden from Wan Li's eyes.
Ruan Zhan nodded.
"I won't stop you. After all, if you catch them, you can know about your uncle." Wan Li sighed, "But you can't believe everything they say. Although you are usually calm, caring makes you chaotic. Promise me, Think twice before doing anything."
"Don't worry. I was fooled once and I will never make a mistake again." Ruan Zhan was always cold when talking about those two evil spirits.
"You don't think that uncle is a bad person, do you?" Wan Li thought of what the evil spirit said that day. It seemed that when Azhan and his son met again, something difficult to understand would happen, as if his uncle had done something evil. But he would never believe that the old man was a villain. There must be some misunderstanding or secret. There must be.
Ruan Zhan raised his head and looked out the window, as if recalling the past. After a while, he said, "He is not a qualified father, but he is by no means a bad person. In the past two months, I have been thinking about what happened every day These things, I now begin to feel that my birth, abandonment, retrieval, and his death are all related to a huge secret."
"Don't you hate him anymore?"
"Is it weird?" Ruan Zhan smiled bitterly, "I'm thinking that maybe he also has his own reasons, just like I did with Xiao Xia. Obviously -" he paused, "but he forced himself to stay away Her."
"You can't let her go, are you? Do you want to accept her?"
"It depends on the situation."
"It seems that rest is beneficial. You have been lying down for more than two months. Although you will practice all night when Xiaoxia is not prepared, you seem to have figured out a lot. It seems that I will be injured someday and lie down. Go lie down and lend me your Xiaoxia when the time comes." Wan Li smiled when he heard Ruan Zhan's tone indicating that he wanted to fight fate and fight for his own happiness, but he couldn't tell what he felt in his heart.
He was very happy that his friend had figured it out, and since he knew about A Zhan's father, he also decided to promote the relationship between Xiao Xia and A Zhan. He would never get involved and cause trouble, but when the time came, A Zhan had to accept it. When Xiao Xia was in bed, his heart felt like a whole bunch of needles had dropped. He couldn't tell where the pain was, but it was uncomfortable.
He was once too confident and felt that he could control his feelings and would not have unnecessary thoughts about Xiaoxia. But when he suddenly found that his feelings were out of control, they had overflowed, and now they asked him to give them up, just like digging them up every time. It's like losing his flesh and blood. However, he has always been a bystander to A Zhan and Xiao Xia, and has never taken a step into their relationship.
The first person he loved died; the person he married, he probably never really loved; the person he opened his heart to love again, was deeply in love with his best friend - this is His sorrow.
"I won't borrow it." Ruan Zhan frowned, "You have so many admirers, just give me a shout and I'm sure you'll be even more like a puppet than I have been in the past two months."
Wan Li laughed loudly, although his heart still hurt. But he had never seen Ruan Zhan look childish. He had been as calm as an adult since he was a child. At this moment, when I heard that someone wanted to borrow Xiaoxia, it was as if someone was trying to steal his things, so I hurriedly defended him. His ridiculous and cute appearance should be taken as a souvenir.
"Why are you laughing?"
"The poker face that laughs at you finally has a look other than a fake smile and a cold expression. Still a puppet? I see you are very happy being a puppet! Haha."
"Idiot! I really don't know what those women like about you!" Ruan Zhan scolded.
Wan Li still kept smiling. It was rare for Ruan Zhan to feel so relaxed and clear in his heart. At this point, he was truly happy for his friend. However, the pain in my heart came up again, and I quickly suppressed it and just asked, "When are you going to confess your love to her? When you get through your death, right? Hou, I really want to see what Iceberg Man is going to do. Say the word 'love' to a woman."
"I don't have time to talk nonsense with you." Ruan Zhan turned around, feeling a little shy. He has also been among thousands of flowers. He didn't expect it to be like this today. He even felt strange, "I still need to study how to deal with those evil pairs!"
"Do you know where to find them?"
"Xiao Xia said -" Ruan Zhan's voice couldn't help but become softer when talking about this name, "She once prepared a legal document for the 'God of Gamblers' He Fugui, about the development of barren mountains. Then The mountain is called Tietou Mountain, and it is in He Fugui’s hometown. I was thinking, how could such a addicted gambler want to do something serious? No one has seen the value of developing that mountain for so many years. How could anyone The **** who sold his wife for a gamble saw something real?! Think about it again, why did those two evil spirits help him? It can be speculated that this mountain may be wanted by those two evil spirits. It may be that the mountain has gathered spiritual energy. They want to cultivate and settle down, or they may have other ulterior motives. You should know that if the development rights of that mountain belong to He Fugui, those two evil spirits can use their puppets to do whatever they want. Otherwise, why would they choose He Fugui? Why did he appear in Jinshi Town?"
"That's right." Wan Li nodded, "Only they have the motive to book the entire mountain, and they also have the convenience of appearing at that place and time. As for why He Fugui was trained to be the God of Gamblers, it may be It has something to do with his addiction to gambling, the evil thoughts hidden in his heart, and the fact that it is easier to control. You must know that developing barren mountains requires a lot of money. Bao Datong and I talked about this 'God of Gambling', and he said that there is indeed a kind of gambling among the people. According to the saying, as long as you find a very sinister boy's grave, burn incense and go home in the middle of the night, it will be extremely dangerous, but as long as you are not scared to death, you can win every bet. It is unknown whether anyone has succeeded, but He Fugui can win in such a short period of time. To accumulate such a large amount of wealth over time, the money must have come from gambling. A few days ago, the police caught a gambling bureau in the next street, and there were millions of dollars in gambling at one table."
"There is no doubt that he did not get his money easily. But no matter whether He Fugui went through the legendary twists and turns, or the two evil spirits helped him become the so-called 'God of Gambling' in the gambling game, he He is just an accomplice, or just a tool to achieve his goal."
"That's right." Wan Li agreed, "Then when are you going to leave?"
"Tomorrow."
"Do you need help?"
"No need, I have to solve these two things myself! By the way, I want to avenge He Fugui's wife. Xiaoxia really wants to do it, so I will help her do it. Besides, you have a job, and you have to stay here to help. I'll take care of Xiaoxia. Bao Datong still has to watch the bar. I'll regret leaving such cheap labor unused." Ruan Zhan made a rare joke, which showed that after thinking about it, he was in a much brighter mood.
"What to do?"
"Aren't those two villains together with He Fugui? I'll find He Fugui. Let's make a big bet with them!" Ruan Zhan smiled slightly and pursed the corner of his mouth. From every angle, it looked like something. evil.
