Genshin Impact: Quietly Investing for Six Thousand Years

When he returned to the clinic, there were only a few patients left, but Bai Zhu was still treating people very seriously.

Qiqi and Asheng were picking up and weighing the medicine, and they were also responsible for collecting the money.

Although Qiqi has a poor memory, she remembers the location of the herbs very clearly.

Chen Mo was bored and found a stool to sit on. He pulled out a medical book from the side and read it with his chin in his hand.

After a while, Bubulu sent away the last patient.

Bai Zhu noticed this "patient" and stood up and walked over.

"Sir, what medicine do you want?" Bai Zhu asked with a smile.

Chen Mo raised his eyes slightly and put down the medical book.

"I want to ask Mr. Bai Shu, when people live in this world, is their own life more important or the lives of others more important?"

Bai Zhu was obviously stunned, and said with a smile: "Young Master, why did you come to Bu Lu without getting medicine or seeing a doctor?"

The brown eyes looked at Chen Mo, as if trying to see something?

"I heard that there is a strange beast in the world that feeds on the vitality of the contractor and can transfer the vitality into other people's bodies."

Bai Zhu's pupils shrank, and his body trembled slightly, but he still smiled gently, "Where in the world can such a strange beast exist? It's just a rumor."

"Mr. Bai, he is... Big Sparrow." Qiqi popped his head out.

Bai Zhu turned around and said, "Qiqi, do you know him?"

Qiqi walked over slowly and nodded.

"Mr. Bai Shu." Chen Mo greeted with a smile.

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Chen Mo, and I'm Qiqi's brother."

Hearing this, Bai Zhu raised his elegant face, and at the same time, the white snake wrapped around his neck opened its eyes, looking curious.

The corners of his mouth pulled out a gentle smile, and he crossed his fingers, "As far as I know, I have never heard Qiqi say that she has no relatives alive..."

Under the gold-rimmed glasses, the brown eyes flashed a gleam of brilliance.

"Mr. Bai...Big Tuanque, is Qiqi's...brother." Qiqi looked up.

"Is that so?" Bai Zhu pinched his chin and pondered.

The white snake on the neck wanted to say something, but when Chen Mo glanced at it lightly, it quickly shrank back.

This man is so scary!

Feeling the white snake's fear, Bai Shu's eyes flashed with surprise.

The look he gave Chen Mo became unusual.

"It seems that Master Chen Mo came here for immortality." Bai Zhu narrowed his eyes.

"No, I came here because of the question just now." Chen Mo said.

He wanted to hear Bai Zhu's answer.

After a moment of silence, Bai Zhu turned to the counter and said, "I'm going to chat with this young man in the back. Call me if you need anything."

He looked at Chen Mo, stretched out his hand and said, "Mr. Chen Mo, please!"

After saying that, he went out first, and Chen Mo Qiqi followed behind.

The three of them arrived at a secluded corridor and Bai Shu stopped.

"Since Mr. Chen Mo is so urgent about this issue, may I ask if this is very important to you?" Bai Zhu was very confused. He had never met such a person before.

At first, he thought Chen Mo came for Changsheng, but looking at his attitude towards Changsheng, he was not as interested in himself as he was in Changsheng.

Thinking of this, he took a step back and kept some distance.

"No! It's not important to me, but it's important to you." Chen Mo said with a smile.

"Mr. Chen Mo is joking." Bai Zhu still had a gentle smile on his face.

Just take another step back.

This little action naturally could not be hidden from Chen Mo, "Mr. Bai, what I said may cause you ambiguity, but, I am a man!"

Changing the subject, "I will also not harm the strange beasts that have been passed down from generation to generation in your sect, so you can rest assured."

After saying that, he waited for Bai Zhu's reply. After all, he had already said this much.

Bai Zhu and Changsheng both breathed a sigh of relief and looked at each other. The white snake swam to his shoulder and stood up.

"This is the strange beast that Master Chen Mo just mentioned, Changsheng."

The white snake trembled, "Hello... hello."

There is no other reason, Baishu can’t sense it.

The aura of this Master Chen Mo is truly terrifying!

"Changsheng... is scared." Qiqi opened her little mouth with a surprised expression. Because she was a half beat late, she looked very cute.

Changsheng shrank his body. Normally, he would have said Qiqi a long time ago, but today, since this man was here, he just wanted to make his presence felt less.

"The secret method of longevity can not only transfer vitality, but also transfer toxins and diseases." Bai Shu said.

"I know this." Chen Mo nodded. He Changsheng also understood it.

Bai Zhu slowly recounted how he took over the contract from his deceased master.

"The contract I made with Changsheng is not something that ordinary people can make. To inherit a contract also requires one's character. The characters who made the contract in the past generations are all pure in character."

"However, the most virtuous people who have obtained this secret method are more easily attracted to this miracle that defies life and death than ordinary people."

"Although I know exactly what the outcome will be, facing the cries and wails of the masses, and the birth, aging, sickness, and death of my closest friends, I will eventually resort to inhuman force."

“Like a moth that flies to a flame, in the long night of suffering for all living beings, it seeks the hope of transcending life and death.”

"If you continue like this, you will follow in your master's footsteps in less than ten years." Chen Mo warned with a gleam in his eyes.

Baizhu is very young now. Although he has lost some vitality, as a doctor, he can make up for it if he takes good care of himself.

"Qiqi, I don't want Mr. Bai to die." Qiqi lowered her head.

"Haha... I am probably the moth that wants to pursue the light but doesn't want to be burned!" Bai Zhu said self-deprecatingly.

He also wanted to, but when he heard the crying of those people, he could only be that moth!

"The secret method can alleviate physical pain, but it cannot reduce the suffering in the world..." Chen Mo murmured.

He is no exception. In order to make up for the so-called regrets, he shed blood for Liyue, saved Guizhong, Fu Chilong, and Jiangyanjun...

"I respect those teachers who sacrificed their lives for their ideals, but I don't intend to become one of them, nor do I want this contract to continue to be passed down to future generations."

"I don't want the later generations to have a short life due to the contract, nor do I want the immortal to die due to losing the contract. So isn't there only one answer?" Bai Zhu stared at Chen Mo quietly. He felt that the person in front of him might be the same person as himself.

"The elixir of immortality..." Chen Mo's eyes were solemn.

"I will be the last contractor, and let the inheritance of the contract end with me." Bai Zhu looked at the water, his eyes full of determination.

"True immortality is something that even the demons of the past could not achieve. You want to save others and yourself, and in the end you even want to save me. You are so greedy." Changsheng was full of complaints.

In its view, if you can save someone, then save them; if you can't save them, then why force it?

Instead, it would be a waste of all the careful preparation, and everyone would end up going down the same old path.

"Oh, if you are not greedy, are you still a mortal?"

"Afraid of candlelight, yet yearning for light, such a selfish moth - can only fly to the moon." Bai Zhu said self-deprecatingly.

"Okay! Mr. Bai. I got the answer I wanted. Although this answer is not good..." Chen Mo stood up, bowed, turned and left.

Qiqi was startled and looked at Chen Mo.

Didn’t we agree to save Mr. Bai?

Bai Zhu just watched him leave quietly, and Changsheng's huddled body finally wrapped around his neck.

"You don't want to save me, Mr. Bai?" Qiqi chased after him, looking up at her little face.

Chen Mo shook his head. It was useless. Even if he cured his current deficit, as long as there were sorrow, birth, aging, sickness and death in the world.

He would still make the same decision!

He can't save this kind of person, and he doesn't need to save him.

There is always a price to pay for defying life and death.

There is no free lunch in the world.
