son sick

Chapter 19 9. Broken Temple

The ruined temple is not difficult to find, just go into the forest and walk along the path.It's just that the distance is a bit long, and even Meng Qinggong took some time to get there.

By the time he landed, the bright moon had already slanted to the east, and apart from the sound of cicadas and the wind, the place was almost eerily quiet.

Fang Muhua said that this place is almost collapsed, and few people will stop here.There must be many secrets hidden in places where people are not allowed to go.

Thinking about it, Lian Meng lit a torch and walked carefully into the shadows.

It was expected that there should be some snakes, rats, ants, and cobweb dust, but Lian Meng just entered, and felt that there was not as much dust inside as he expected.Although this place is old, it is far from dilapidated like what Fang Muhua said.

He lit the fire and looked carefully, and also held the silver dart in his hand, in case things changed.

In the depths of the ruined temple is a faded Buddha statue covered in cobwebs and dust.

Lian Meng stood in front of the Buddha statue, raised his hand to let the light shine further away, everything was silent, and he listened, but suddenly heard a soft breathing.

Even Meng's heart tightened, and his eyes became sharp.At this time, someone said: "Are you back again?"

The speaker's tone was not kind, Lian Meng only said that he had misunderstood the person: "This senior, I can only pass through here."

"This voice..." The man seemed to be thinking about something.Lian Meng took advantage of the situation and walked towards the source of the sound.He poked forward with the hand that was holding the fire, and sure enough he saw the person who was leaning against the wall.

The man was ragged, his hair was disheveled, and he looked older.There were two terrifying knife marks on his face, and his eyes were closed all the time, as if he was blind.

Hearing Lian Meng's approaching voice, the man sneered: "Passing here?... Are you sure he didn't send me to check my life and death?"

"Who is he?"

"The genius doctor you are talking about, Mohe."

Lian Meng was startled, but felt strange: "Doctor Mo He is already a hundred years old, senior, do you have friendship with him?"

"Oh! Boy, don't lie. I just saw him yesterday. He is so lively. How could he be a hundred years old in less than a day?"

Lian Meng didn't know how to answer, but seeing this man's strange speech, he wondered if he was also a lunatic?

Seeing that Lian Meng didn't answer, the man sneered and said, "Quickly tell me, what are you here for?"

During the time spent with Qi Nian, even Meng has his own "experience", facing such a self-talking person, it must be inappropriate to argue with him.May wish to answer his questions, in order to hear more things.

So, he followed the words of the blind old man.

"Sure enough, I can't hide it from seniors. I was indeed entrusted by someone to come to check on the situation of seniors. It's just that I also took money from others, and I don't know what happened."

"Hmph!" The man looked disdainful, "Where did you come from?"

"I come from the Lian Yin family."

"What's that?" The blind old man raised his eyebrows, then waved his hand again, "Forget it, I'm not interested either. I heard your voice was familiar just now, and I thought it was my old friend who came back to see me."

"Old man?"

The blind old man didn't speak, but Lian Meng became interested.

So he simply put down his guard, and sat directly beside the man: "Senior, I'm really curious, what is your relationship with that Doctor Mo?"

Seeing that Lian Meng's tone was familiar, the blind old man felt strange.He thought for a while, then asked, "Boy, what's your name?"

"Lian Meng. I'm Lian Yinmen, Lian Meng."

Seeing the old man frowning, Lian Meng asked, "What? Have you heard?"

"No."

"That's right, I'm just an unknown junior." Lian Meng shrugged, "I've never been here before, but some strange things have happened recently. There are always some strangers who say they know me, but I don't know them at all."

"..." The blind old man seemed puzzled.

"But the person who said this is not so clear-headed. The doctor said he was sick, so..."

"sick?"

The blind old man's frown became tighter and tighter. Seeing his expression change, Lian Meng couldn't help getting closer, and asked, "Senior, what's the matter?"

"The disease you mentioned...I have seen it before."

Lian Meng was slightly taken aback, then looked at the blind old man suspiciously: "Have you really heard of this disease?"

"This disease is rare, I'm afraid I won't remember it wrong."

"Then trouble seniors, let's hear it."

"Is that friend of yours always able to tell what hasn't happened yet?"

"Yes."

"You haven't met him, but he seems to have known you for several years?"

"Correct."

"You don't have the slightest memory of him, and you are sure that you have not lost your memory. You wonder if it is fate in the past life, but that person tells you that this is not the past life, but this life. It is just a reversal of time and everything starts again?"

"...How do you know?"

"I've met people with this disease before."

"You mean..."

"Bai Zang. Have you heard of this name?"

Lian Meng was taken aback, in the story Fang Muhua told earlier, someone clearly called him by this name.

According to what this person said, the person named Bai Zang had exactly the same illness as Qi Nian!Is there really someone in the world with such a strange disease?

But Lian Meng still felt strange: "Doctor Mohe said he can cure this disease? Are you serious?"

"There is no disease in this world that he can't cure."

"Then Baizang recovered from his illness?"

"About being cured."

"Senior, what is your relationship with that person named Bai Zang?"

"Are you so curious? What's your relationship with him?"

Unexpectedly, this old man would be difficult to deal with, so Lian Meng simply smiled and said, "I just think it's interesting. Why don't you tell me his story, and I promise you three things, how about it?"

The blind old man looked disdainful, but after a while, his expression changed slightly: "Okay. Anyway, my life is not long. After sunset, I'm afraid I will die in hell."

Lian Meng turned sideways, looked at the dark night sky behind him, and decided not to argue.

The blind old man continued: "But you have to promise me that you must remember this story well, and you must not forget every single word."

"Okay! I'll never forget it until I die!" Lian Meng smiled boldly, and then sat down cross-legged beside the old man.

Although the blind old man seemed a little crazy, Lian Meng had always been very interested in these legends and anecdotes. It didn't matter if they were true or not, it didn't matter if he heard them, as if he had nothing to do and entertained himself.

In fact, the story told by this blind old man is similar to what Fang Muhua said, at least they all had the same beginning.

Mo He has been practicing medicine since he was a child, and because of his skill of rejuvenation, he has been in the world for quite a long time.When he was 28 years old, he set foot in the apricot forest because he was looking for medicine. Seeing the beautiful scenery and rich vegetation here, he decided to live here for a while.

One day when he came back from the mountains, he met a Jianghu man who was injured and unconscious on the road.

He took him back to Xingmulin's residence and took good care of him.It seemed that after a fierce fight, the man was seriously injured and fell into a coma for three days.When he finally woke up, Mo He asked him his name, but the man looked away and said that he had forgotten.

Mo He didn't seem to care, he just forgot and forgot.It's just that there must be a name that can be called. He saw the spring outside the window, so he named the man "Qingyang".

The two depended on each other to live in the apricot forest, and their relationship gradually improved.

It's just that Mo He vaguely felt that Qingyang didn't really forget the past, but just didn't forget to mention it.But since that person didn't want to mention it, he didn't ask any more questions, until after three months, a stranger came from Xingmulin.

"Outsider? The man named Bai Zang?"

"The person who came here for the first time is not Baizang, but Qingyang's fellow disciple."

"Same door?"

"He said he was Qingyang's younger brother."

The visitor was young and acted hastily and recklessly. As soon as he saw Qingyang, he had to take him away forcibly.Seeing this, Mo He stepped forward to stop him, but unexpectedly, he was accidentally injured by that person.

Qingyang blamed the man for being reckless, but the man said that he hadn't made a move.But at that time, the situation was urgent, Qingyang didn't want to listen to him, and put down everything in his hands to take care of Mohe.

The person who claimed to be Junior Brother Qingyang was also very guilty, so he had to stay.

This stay lasted for more than ten days, and Mo He's condition improved day by day, and the man mentioned that he wanted to take Qing Yang away.

Unexpectedly, this time Qingyang turned him down straight away, saying that he didn't want to be involved in the disputes between Jianghu and Jianghu again, and this meeting might as well be the last.The man was puzzled, but Qingyang was unwilling to explain further.

"Later, that man passed by this ruined temple when he came out of the apricot forest, and I had the honor to meet him."

"Do you know his identity?"

"I wasn't blind at that time, but the night was dark, so I couldn't see the man's face clearly. I saw him dressed in black, with long hair in a crown and a ponytail."

"..." Lian Meng was startled, and the attire looked familiar, "Isn't that man from... Lian Yin's family?"

"He didn't mention this, and I'm also ignorant. I've never seen the people from the Lian Yin family you mentioned."

Even Meng felt strange, wondering if it was the uncle and uncle in the door who had this encounter.

"However, his identity and sect is not important. The important thing is that before he left, he asked me to do something important."

"what's up?"

"He said that his brother seemed a little weird..."

"What's weird?" Lian Meng raised his eyebrows and asked.

"He said that his senior brother suffered from a hidden disease earlier, and now that he has made such a decision, he may have other plans, and it is not easy for him to interfere."

"What kind of hidden disease?"

"He didn't elaborate on this. He only said that his brother's sanity is sometimes clear and sometimes confused. He is afraid that the situation will change in the future. If something happens, please ask me to deliver a letter to Qingyang."

Then, the person who claimed to be Junior Brother Qingyang left Xingmulin.

About half a month later, someone found a corpse on the northern hillside outside the apricot forest. Its appearance was completely destroyed, as if it had been burned to death by a fire, and it was impossible to discern the slightest appearance.
