Chapter 308 Isn’t this a bit far?
Doctor Zhao held onto Jin Congcong's hand tightly and wouldn't let go. "Great! We're so lucky! Little Divine Doctor Jin came to our tent to help us save someone, and he even selflessly gave us the recipe for the hemostatic powder."
"We used that recipe and the hemostatic powder you made to alleviate a lot of pain for the victims. This is all thanks to Dr. Jin."
"We told the disaster victims all about Dr. Jin's noble character, and they said they would always remember him."
Jin Congcong: ...
Why does this sound so awkward?
In Ruo'er's place, the people would build a temple for her and worship her, but here I will always remember her in my heart... Isn't this a bit far-fetched?
Forget it, as long as someone remembers me, I don’t care whether it is a temple or not. The people wanted to build a temple for Ruoer, but Ruoer refused.
"This is what I should do. Doctor Zhao and the court physician don't have to be so polite. Besides, the prescription is not mine. It was developed by my master, Doctor Du. I am just offering a helping hand."
After hearing this, the court physician and Doctor Zhao looked at each other and said in unison, "Build a temple for Doctor Du!"
Jin Congcong: ...
Well, half of this merit went to the old man, maybe even more than half.
Bu Ruo tried to hold back his laughter when he saw Jin Congcong. After comforting the people and arranging things, he walked towards the inn and prepared to go back.
"Ruo'er, I seem to have been bullied..."
"Ruo'er, why are they nicer to others than to me? Even if the prescription belongs to my master, it was me who decided to give it to them. Why do they only want to build a temple for that old man and not for me?"
"Ruo'er, I feel a little uncomfortable. Although I didn't think about merit at the beginning, now I feel suffocated when I think about sharing my merit with that old man."
"That old man has been practicing medicine for many years and has saved countless lives. He has no shortage of merits. But I am different. I do lack merits. My merits are saved to save lives."
"Ruo'er..."
Bu Ruo was really annoyed by his 'Ruo'er Ruo'er. She glanced at him and said unhappily, "Alright, you can't see it yourself, but I can. You already have the light of merit on you. It's very weak, but it's better than nothing."
Jin Congcong was stunned, then jumped up with joy: "Ruo'er, are you serious? There really is a light of merit on me? That's great, it's really great, this way I won't die so easily."
Bu Bu peeled the candy given by the disaster victims and asked in confusion, "Brother, why are you so happy? Is it because of the merit light?"
"Is it strange to have the light of merit? We all have it. You are the only one with the weakest one. What's there to be happy about? You're jumping for joy..."
Jin Congcong: ...
"Bubu, you don't understand. The merit light on you is of little use, but the merit light on my brother can save my life."
Bu Bu tilted his head and looked at it. "Life-saving? Can such a small amount of merit light really save lives? But it will be gone in a few days. What life can it save? How long can it save? Um... Bu Bu thinks it can only save ten days at most."
Jin Congcong: ???!!!
"Ten days or eight days? What do you mean? Bubu, are you saying that my merits will be gone in ten days or eight days? How is that possible..."
Bu Bu nodded with a serious look on his face: "That's what I mean. It will be gone in ten or eight days. Brother, you have the light of merit, but there is a big black hole in your spiritual consciousness that is slowly absorbing your light of merit."
"So your merit light can only last for eight or ten days at most before it is completely absorbed. In other words, your merit light can only protect you from bad luck for eight or ten days."
Jin Congcong wanted to cry: "Ruo'er, Bubu said there is a big black hole in my spiritual consciousness..."
"Bu Bu is right. There is a big black hole. Don't you know it yourself? It's the curse in your spiritual consciousness. In Bu Bu's eyes, that thing is a big black hole."
Someone was unhappy and stopped jumping around: "That means that every time I accumulate merit, it will be absorbed by the curse. That means no matter how much merit I accumulate, it will be useless. When the time comes, I will still have bad luck and will still die."
Bu Bu thought for a moment and hummed, "Not really... Senior Brother, don't be so discouraged, eh? Hey hey hey? Senior Brother, why are your eyes red? Don't cry, it's not as bad as you think."
Bubu leaned on Bier's shoulder and comforted Jin Congcong behind him: "Brother, you have to think about it this way. Mother always says that little by little, a lot can be accumulated. This thing is like saving money. If you save a lot of money and then spend it slowly, won't it take longer to spend it?"
"If you only save a little bit, will it be gone after one shopping trip? And it won't even be enough to spend?" The little girl said as she compared the size of her little finger nail.
"It's the same with accumulating merit. Brother, accumulating merit is like accumulating silver. The black hole is like the silver you spend. The speed at which the black hole absorbs it is always the same. If you accumulate more merit, won't you be able to last longer?"
"Brother, think about what Bu Bu said, is it right? Is that the truth?"
Jin Congcong always felt that Bubu was right, but something seemed to be wrong. It was not until he reached the door of the inn that Jin Congcong looked at Bubu with tears in his eyes.
"That's true, but if I spend the money I saved, I can get something. But the merits I worked so hard to accumulate were absorbed by the curse. Doesn't that mean I saved them for nothing?"
Bu Bu smacked her lips and said, "How can this be considered a waste of time? After the black hole absorbs your merits, it will become smaller. Although it is only very, very, very small, extremely small, it is indeed a change."
"But I'm not saying anything bad about you, Senior Brother, all the good things you did in the past really... made Bubu not know how to praise you."
Jin Congcong, who had originally lowered his head, instantly raised it up when he heard Bubu's words, and even his eyes lit up.
"Bubu, you're saying that the black hole became smaller after absorbing my merit, right? Doesn't that mean that as long as I have enough merit, I can break the damn curse in my spiritual consciousness?"
“Ruo’er, is Bubu right? Is that what you mean?”
Bu Ruo rolled her eyes at him and said, "That's right, but do you know how much merit you need to accumulate?"
Jin Congcong: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. As long as there is hope, it's fine. I will work hard to accumulate merits, and one day I will be able to break the curse. The curse has always been there, like a knife hanging over my head. I really can't sleep well."
Bu Ruo sighed, "Jin Congcong, are you not very smart? If it were that simple, wouldn't I have told you long ago and helped you break it? Why would I have to spend all day and night trying to figure out how to deal with your curse? Why would I have to keep you tied to my side all day and night?"
"Let me give you an example..."
