Chapter 411: Each Has His Own Pain
The way of heaven is to go round and round, all for one person. ——Inscription
Fan Nuoxi couldn't believe it and asked, "Why do you say that?"
"Because I found that the pill you fed him actually had little effect on his body. If someone else was injured so badly, with such a good pill, the condition should have been controlled from getting worse, but that wasn't the case with him, so I guess he was just a clone." Bai Zhou thought carefully.
"I think Bai Zhou's guess is not unreasonable," Luo Ying squatted down in front of Fan Nuoxi and echoed, "I don't see three souls and seven spirits in him. Rather than a clone, I think it's more like a wisp of divine consciousness."
"Is it just... spiritual consciousness?" Fan Nuoxi asked with some complexity.
For a moment, a myriad of thoughts arose in Fan Nuoxi's mind, and she didn't know whether she was happy or sad.
"Actually, I'm not really sure, because this is the first time I've faced such a situation." Luo Ying continued, then glanced at the person on the couch, "Maybe, when he wakes up, you can ask him in person, maybe he will tell you."
After hearing what Bai Zhou and Luo Ying said, Ruochen had some guesses in his mind.
This old man only has Xixi in his heart now, so was all he did in the past actually for her?
Who is he?
Where is Xixi?
When others learned about Su Xiu's situation, they felt mixed emotions.
No matter whether this old man is a clone or spiritual consciousness, his kindness to Fan Nuoxi is genuine and so is his obsession.
Why is he like that?
Su Xiu was injured and was in a coma for three whole days.
Pei Wang and his friends would come to visit every now and then. The accompanying doctors and elders who knew medicine were helpless in the face of Su Xiu's condition, but they couldn't help but praise Fan Nuoxi.
Naturally, the burden of taking care of Su Xiu fell on Fan Nuoxi.
Maybe Su Xiu had a nightmare. Even though he was unconscious, he was still a little scared.
"Disciple, it's Master's fault..."
"Don't leave, okay?"
"Disciple..."
Hearing this, Fan Nuoxi gently held Su Xiu's hand and said softly, "I'm here."
Su Xiu felt a warm little hand holding his hand, and a line of hot tears slowly slid down from the corner of his eyes.
While sleeping, Su Xiu dreamed of many scenes from the past.
It could be the mischievous Nuo Xi when she was young, or the Nuo Xi who started her own business, or the worried Nuo Xi...
But with so many of her around, what made Su Xiu most sad was that he suddenly realized that Nuoxi's soul had fled.
He vaguely remembered that he was watering a peach tree that Nuoxi had planted when he was young, when he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart and then passed out.
When he woke up, he learned of Nuoxi's death.
He sent people to look for Nuoxi's body like crazy, but found nothing, and kept bringing back bad news about the little ones around her.
Later, by chance, he found the place where Nuoxi fell.
There, he cast a spell and saw how Nuoxi fell, and the person who harmed her...
When he found the person who harmed her, he learned that the person had died on the day Nuoxi fell.
But his apprentice could not come back...
Su Zhengzheng dreamed about these things, so his emotions fluctuated greatly.
Fan Nuoxi was naturally unaware of all this, but could vaguely guess a little and felt mixed emotions.
Cheap Master, in your heart, what am I...?
Is it her replacement?
But no matter what, I still hope you are well.
Fan Nuoxi's inseparable appearance made everyone feel distressed.
As the saying goes, once a teacher, always a father.
Perhaps Fan Nuoxi had already regarded Su Xiu as a relative in her heart without realizing it.
"You've been taking care of him for too long. Why don't I look after him for a while? You go and have a good rest." Dongfang Junyan came to Fan Nuoxi and advised.
"But...his condition is not very stable, I am a little worried." Fan Nuoxi looked conflicted.
"When he wakes up and sees that you are exhausted from taking care of him, do you think he will cause trouble for us?" Ruochen seemed to think of Su Xiu's noisy appearance, and looked at Fan Nuoxi with some resentment in his eyes.
No matter what the old man's current situation is, no one can see his strength, and it is easy for him to bully anyone!
"Okay, then I'll trouble you to take care of the old man." Fan Nuoxi was silent for a moment, then finally agreed.
After leaving some medicine and giving some worried instructions, Fan Nuoxi was taken away by Dongfang Junyan to rest with a heavy heart.
"She doesn't say it, but she actually cares more than anyone else." Peilin sighed softly.
"You, you should first think about how to make Xiaocai change her mind!" Luoying patted Peilin's shoulder earnestly.
"You are so... thoughtful..." Peilin said with some difficulty.
After saying that, he staggered out to find Xiao Cai.
He can't take care of himself, so he should just leave her alone for now...
My little ancestor, when will you forgive me?
……
Zhong Yao listened carefully to his subordinates' reports with a faint smile on his lips.
"This old man made a big fuss as soon as he came back. I didn't expect it was all for that little guy." Zhong Yao played with the box in his hand. "It seems like it's time to find a chance to meet someone who can interest him!"
Ever since the old man came back, most of the intelligence networks he had established were destroyed along with the evil creatures he raised.
The news we hear now were all learned by the few elite soldiers (the remnants of the defeated army) from the rumors in the sect.
As for wanting to enter Cuiyun Peak for a thorough investigation, that would be seeking death.
However, those people didn't dare to say these things directly in front of Mr. Zhong Yao.
After all, this unpredictable guy, when he gets mad, he can make you live and die repeatedly...
That feeling...it's better not to experience it easily...
After these people left, Zhong Yao actually took out Nuoxi's scroll again.
"Nuoxi, are you so unwilling to let me find you?"
"Even if I gathered my luck to find news about you, it still scattered like before."
Zhong Yao couldn't help but burst into tears when he thought about how all he had done recently to find Nuo Xi had failed again.
"Why is this so?"
"I don't believe you're really reluctant to not come back..."
"Or have you already returned, but you just don't want anyone to find you?"
For no reason, Zhong Yao remembered the luck he had collected a year ago.
That luck was collected by his subordinates at that time. It was countless times better than many other lucks that had already been collected. But for some reason, it disappeared on its own one day.
However, since then, the evil creatures he raised would more or less have the aura of the Lord of Luck, and he did not dislike this aura at all.
But he couldn't find out the identity of that person.
When he went to check, the person seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, and there were no useful clues.
However, about one or two months ago, the evil creatures he raised became unexpectedly excited, but he could not find out the reason.
However, the recently emerged Yin Cuicui may be a breakthrough.
Because he noticed that the two-headed mutant hunting python that almost exposed him liked Yin Cuicui the most among all the people he came into contact with.
Since Yin Cuicui entered the sect, the evil creatures he raised would show some abnormalities to varying degrees after sensing Yin Cuicui's aura.
But based on the information they fed back to him, Yin Cuicui's aura was somewhat similar to that of the person from a year ago, but also quite different.
The similarities are that their auras make people subconsciously want to get close to each other, but the difference is that one is like a trickle, and the other is like a vast ocean, and the latter obviously makes people want to get closer and possess it more easily.
Another difference is that the aura of the man a year ago gave Zhong Yao a feeling of being approachable but not arousing his interest, while Yin Cuicui's aura made people feel a bit unattainable and mysterious, yet they still yearned for it.
However, Zhong Yao might never have thought that these two could be the same person.
In addition, for some reason, Yin Cuicui's aura always reminded him of Nuo Xi.
Obviously, Yin Cuicui's aura is different from Nuoxi's aura...
"Little guy, no matter why you came here, you have to let me have a look, right?" Zhong Yao looked at the box containing the scout soldier with great interest, "I have been staying in this broken place for a long time, it is time to go out for a walk!"
"Little guy, I'm looking forward to seeing you more and more!"
"I hope you won't be afraid of me when I see you!"
After he finished speaking, Zhong Yao put away the scroll and the box and disappeared silently.
