Chapter 1234 A City for Buying Life



So even though such a serious thing happened here, no one came to ask about it from beginning to end.

People have died one after another, and the entire Guixin City is shrouded in panic.

Just when everyone was becoming increasingly desperate, suddenly an old immortal descended from the sky.

This man had a kind and gentle appearance, and he immediately gave everyone medicine. After taking his medicine, everyone miraculously got better.

Everyone was so excited that they all bowed down to thank the old immortal for his kindness.

Later everyone learned that this person was called Beitian Xianjun, and he was an immortal in the celestial realm.

He came here just to help everyone, and everyone was moved to tears of gratitude after hearing this.

We thought the crisis was over, but a month later, people started showing symptoms of the plague again.

Everyone was terrified and rushed to find the Immortal Lord Beitian, who was practicing on Hongming Mountain outside the city.

Upon learning the purpose of everyone's visit, the Immortal Lord Beitian smiled slightly and told everyone that this disease could not be cured easily.

If you want to stay alive, you must spend money to buy your life. Only through his magic medicine can you temporarily stop the outbreak of the plague.

However, the effectiveness of this medicine can only last from one to two years, or from half a month to several months.

If everyone wants to survive, they must pay for it, otherwise they can only wait to die.

Everyone was stunned when they heard his words. They didn't expect the old immortal to change so suddenly and turn his back on them. If they wanted to live, they had to pay him money.

Otherwise, even if you cry to death in front of him, he will not pay any attention to you.

Some people were more stubborn and got very angry when they saw the old immortal taking the opportunity to make money, so they turned around and went home.

No one knew the depth of the situation at first, so everyone went back.

The Immortal Lord Beitian was not in a hurry at all. He told everyone that everyone's life was already printed on their palms and asked them to pay attention to the time.

It was only then that everyone discovered that a string of numbers had indeed appeared on their palms. This string of numbers could actually change, showing how much time they had.

This scared everyone, and as time passed by, no one could remain calm.

However, everyone strongly disagreed with the old immortal's statement, so they wanted to continue to persevere and see.

But then something terrible happened. Someone actually died on the spot because the time was reset to zero.

This sudden change scared everyone. They immediately realized that what the old man said was not a joke, but words that could decide everyone's life or death.

So when faced with life and death, everyone panicked and began to spend money to buy their lives.

Strangely enough, once everyone gave the money to the old immortal and took his elixir, the symptoms of their illness disappeared.

The most important thing is that the time on everyone’s palms was really extended, exactly as he said.

Now everyone was anxious to take out their own money to save their lives.

Gradually, people from all over the city went to him to buy their lives.

Even beggars on the street would pay some money and run to him to buy their lives.

Some poor people really had no money to buy their lives, so they had to run to him for help, but he ignored them at all and watched those people die in front of him.

Then he ordered his people to take the dead to the wasteland outside the city and bury them. As for the others, they had to be revived every once in a while.

Because the price there is really too high, ordinary people can only extend their lives for one month at most at a time.

A few days before the end of the month, everyone rushed over to save their lives.

He also never refuses anyone. Anyone who has had their life extended by him and has paid a certain amount of money will be given a set of clothes by him.

Over time, everyone in the city wore his clothes, so everyone's clothes looked bright and beautiful, but in fact they were bought with everyone's money.

After hearing what the boss said, Zhou Bin and Wanying suddenly realized that this was the case!

The shop owner also told Zhou Bin considerately: "Look and see if you have time on your palms. If you do, then you are done. You can only live here and buy your life from him."

Hearing the shop owner say this, Zhou Bin and his friends were shocked, so Zhou Bin hurriedly checked his palms, which were clean and empty.

Then he checked Wanying's palm, which was also clean and empty.

But Bailong and Xiaobao were not so lucky. When they looked carefully at their palms, they all screamed in fright.

Because a line of faint numbers suddenly appeared on the palms of both of them, and they were constantly changing.

They looked carefully and found that there were only two days left.

The two were terrified and didn't know what to do.

The shop owner was also very curious when he saw it. They clearly came here together, but how come only these two people had time on their palms while the other two had nothing on their hands.

The shop owner kindly told Zhou Bin and the others that if they wanted to survive, they had better go to Hongming Mountain outside the city as soon as possible to ask the Immortal Lord Beitian for a chance to save their lives, otherwise it would be too late and they would be in trouble.

Zhou Bin was very angry and shouted immediately: "This is outrageous! We are just passers-by, how come we are also in trouble?"

Wanying also said: "That's right, why would he ask us to save our lives? We will never swallow this humiliation!"

Bailong and Xiaobao had painful expressions on their faces. They only had two days left to live. This was a terrifying thing for anyone.

But now that things have come to this, no matter how angry they are, they have to hurry to Hongming Mountain, otherwise Xiaobao, Bailong and the others will definitely be in danger.

So a few people stood up and were about to go out, when suddenly a miserable cry was heard from outside the door.

Several people and the shop owner turned their heads hurriedly to look and saw an old man with two children, a boy and a girl, lying on the ground begging for mercy.

The shop owner frowned and immediately went over.

Zhou Bin and his friends followed to see what was going on. The shop assistants were trying to drive them away, but they refused to leave.

The shop owner asked with an unhappy look on his face: "What happened?"

The waiter saw that it was the shop owner, and immediately came over to report: "Boss, this old man brought his two children to ask for money. I said we have no money, but he just won't leave."

The shop owner was very angry when he heard this and shouted at him, "Get out of here, old man! We don't have any money to give you. You are really crazy!"
