Later, except for Wang Hui's family, no one in the entire fishing village had any contact with Chen Ailing's father!
At that time, Chen Ailing's father had agreed with Wang Hui's father that if the two children still had a good relationship in the future, they could directly arrange their marriage. It could be said that it was the parents' words and the matchmaker's decision!
Wang Hui has loved Chen Ailing since childhood, and he hopes that one day when he grows up, he can marry the person he loves all his life and keep her by his side.
Unfortunately, one night six years ago, a storm suddenly came, and Wang Hui will remember what happened for the rest of his life.
Chen Ailing's father went out to sea to fish that day, and Chen Ailing was alone at home, but she was kidnapped. Wang Hui tried his best to stop him, but was stabbed in the chest and almost died.
Chen Ailing disappeared. He only remembered that Chen Ailing had a head injury, which made him extremely anxious and he tried every means to contact Chen Ailing's father.
When he came out of the hospital, Chen Ailing's father also disappeared!
If it weren't for the purple bead he always wore on his chest, which contained the magical power of immortals, he probably wouldn't have survived until now.
So until today, Wang Hui's only wish is to restore Chen Ailing's memory before he dies, so that she will not be deceived or blinded again.
This is his greatest wish.
After listening to his narration, Zhang Fan smiled leisurely.
"Wang Hui, since you are trying to realize your wish, why do you have to hide it? There are many things you deliberately concealed in the things you confessed. Do you want me to wait for you to die and unravel the truth bit by bit to find out the truth you are hiding?"
Zhang Fan stood up suddenly, with golden light flashing in his eyes, causing the mysterious yellow energy of the pawnshop of heaven and earth to roll endlessly, transforming into a long golden dragon, staring at Wang Hui with a fierce look.
This scene frightened Wang Hui so much that his legs went weak and he prostrated himself on the spot, expressing his submission with the most humble etiquette!
"Gods above, Wang Hui did not intentionally deceive me. I still cannot figure out the reason behind this matter. I just want Chen Ailing to stop being deceived, that's all."
Zhang Fan smiled helplessly: "It seems that you don't want to say it. This is your secret. I am too lazy to ask more clearly, but have you ever thought about whether Chen Ailing is really not living well now?
Why do you want Chen Ailing's memory to recover? Are you really confident that after Chen Ailing's memory recovers, she will still remember you and be willing to spend her life with you?
Once you do this, there is no turning back, and the result may be very different from what you expected."
Wang Hui was silent.
Zhang Fan slowly performed the Qi-observing technique. This was his first time, and he felt very interested in the experience of an ordinary practitioner.
He used the art of looking at qi to see that eight out of ten of what Wang Hui said was true and two out of ten was false.
Chen Ailing was indeed his childhood sweetheart, but Chen Ailing had always longed to leave the fishing village since she was a child.
Moreover, Chen Ailing's father was definitely not an ordinary person. The purple bead was not a family heirloom of Wang Hui, but a relic left to Wang Hui by Chen Ailing's father.
Seeing this, Zhang Fan roughly knew what had happened.
Without wasting any more merit and strength, he slowly sat down on the chair, patiently waiting for Wang Hui's explanation.
After a few seconds, Wang Hui raised his head.
"God, I did lie to you, but the reason I did that is because not long after Chen Ailing was captured, his father said he had found a clue, but since then, his father has never returned."
Wang Hui took out a purple bead from his arms.
“This bead seems to be closely tied to Chen Ailing’s life. I relied on this bead to find Chen Ailing, but using this bead also consumed all my lifespan.
In the limited time I have left, perhaps the only choice I can make is to believe that Chen Ailing still remembers me, and I can only choose to love Chen Ailing deeply!
This is my only chance and also my long-cherished wish since I was a child.
So, I may not be an honest person, but I am not a bad person. I just want Chen Ailing to know the truth. As for whether I can survive, it is no longer important. "
Zhang Fan nodded gently: "You have actually always loved Chen Ailing! And this is also the reason why you have never pretended not to know her in front of Chen Ailing!"
Wang Hui showed a miserable smile: "I am almost dead, how can I pursue true love? I just want the truth to come out, even so I have already used all my strength."
Zhang Fan nodded: "You rely on this purple bead to gain a foothold in the world. Logically speaking, I should take this bead from you in exchange for fulfilling your wish."
Wang Hui stood up, held the purple beads in both hands, and gently placed them on the table.
"As long as the immortal can help me, I can teach you anything!"
Zhang Fan glanced at the purple bead and shook his head slightly.
“You are wrong!”
Wang Hui was stunned for a moment: "What does the immortal mean?"
Zhang Fan stretched out his hand and hit it lightly. The purple bead shone brightly and the cracks on it were instantly repaired.
Then the bead floated in front of Wang Hui.
Wang Hui was puzzled and took the bead in his hand!
"Is the Immortal unwilling to help me?"
Zhang Fan smiled and said, "Although the beads are precious, they are tangible things after all. The Pawnshop of Heaven and Earth has no shortage of such things. You have something more important and precious on you. Are you willing to give it to me?
If you are willing, even if your wish is to live another 30 years, I can help you realize it."
Wang Hui was shocked!
He never expected that Zhang Fan could actually extend his life!
But he was only excited for a moment!
Because he thought of what Zhang Fan had just said.
In his eyes, his broken body is a tangible object, but the memory of Chen Ailing and the love deep in his heart are intangible things.
Compared to longevity, what he truly hopes for is for Chen Ailing to recover her memory and no longer be a tool used by others.
"I don't want a long life, I just want a result."
Zhang Fan was slightly surprised, then nodded in understanding.
"Okay, I can help you realize your wish, but you have to exchange your persistence to my Pawnshop as collateral."
What?
Wang Hui's eyes widened, with disbelief written all over his face.
"Isn't the immortal wrong?" Wang Hui spread out the purple bamboo in his palm!
"This bead was left by a Mahayana cultivator. It contains hundreds of strange and wonderful methods, including a method to swallow the essence of the sun and the moon to prolong one's life. Moreover, this bead itself has a space inside that can accommodate the ocean. All of this is not worth a second look from the gods? On the contrary, a kind of emotion is more precious than this mysterious bead?"
