Chapter 93 Rhino Fragrance
In the afternoon, in a private hospital ward.
Lu Bubu looked at Xie Liang lying on the bed with a confused look on his face, and shouted to the lonely Xu He beside him: "It's only been two months since we last met, and you've become like this, brother..."
"Keep your voice down," Shi Xiaoyin rolled her eyes at him, "Didn't the doctor say Xie Liang is severely sleep deprived?"
Lu Bubu had no choice but to lower his voice again: "Should we tell the little brother about Dongzi's death?"
"Can you please have some brains?" Shi Xiaoyin rolled her eyes at him.
"What do you mean, do you want to tell me or not?"
"Let's keep it a secret for now."
Lu Bubu scratched his head and said, "Again, brother, what happened to the little brother?"
"Xiaoliang..." Xu He's voice was hoarse, and he cleared his throat, "It's indigestion."
"Is it so serious?" Shi Xiaoyin asked.
Xu He shook his head: "It's my fault."
"Let's go out and talk." Shi Xiaoyin said, and walked out of Xie Liang's ward with Xu He and Lu Bubu.
The three of them walked towards the hospital's back garden together and stopped in a quiet pavilion with heavy expressions on their faces.
"Brother, I heard that the rules of the sect have changed." Lu Bu said.
Xu He frowned: "What?" He was busy looking for survivors and didn't pay attention to what was happening inside the door.
Shi Xiaoyin explained, "We heard that the number of people who can form a covenant is unlimited, and even four or five people can form a covenant together and it can be successful."
Xu He's brows relaxed a little: "You want to try it?"
"Oh, brother, Dongzi is gone just like that, and my little brother is like this again. It's better for the four of us to live together!" Lu Bubu hung his head with a worried look on his face.
Xu He really wanted to tell him that Xie Liang couldn't withstand the energy of the burning stone for the time being, but after thinking about it, he held back and didn't say it.
Shi Xiaoyin patted Lu Bubu's shoulder and said, "There's been a lot going on lately. Long Qingye was miserable too. He finally made it through, but who could have imagined this? Alas, many people died, even Dongzi..."
"Sister, stop talking. We are here to make a pact with you, not to cause trouble." Lu Bu said.
"Yes, Brother He, when Xie Liang wakes up, tell him that we are going to Dongzi's funeral and will come back tomorrow."
Xu He pondered for a moment and said, "Xiaoliang will be discharged from the hospital tonight. You can come to my home in the suburbs tomorrow."
Lu Bubu was worried and asked, "Brother, can this young man be discharged from the hospital in this condition?"
Xu He: "Yeah."
"It's only been over two months since we last met, how come you've lost so much weight?"
Xu He frowned and said, "He seems to be resisting sleep."
"Could it be that there is something in the dream that he doesn't want to see or is afraid of?" Shi Xiaoyin said.
Xu He suddenly thought of that man. He clenched his fists, wishing he could pull out his bones and tendons, peel off his skin, and grind him into powder.
Xu He suppressed his anger and said, "I understand."
"I heard that burning rhinoceros incense can make two people have the same dream. If I had this incense, I would know what Xie Liang is afraid of." Shi Xiaoyin said.
Xu He: "Rhinoceros incense?"
"Yes, rhino incense is a fragrance made from 50-year-old rhino horns and red spider lilies. I heard that only the indigenous people in South Africa can make it, and it disappeared from the market more than ten years ago."
"I understand." Xu He said as he walked out of the pavilion and made a phone call in the garden.
"Let's go and see Dongzi off." After Lu Bubu finished speaking, he waved to Xu He who was not far away, and led Shi Xiaoyin out of the pavilion together.
Xie Liang didn't know how long he slept. When he woke up, he saw Xu He lying on the side of the bed with a tired look on his face.
Seeing him wake up, Xu He sat up straight.
"You've suffered." Xu He opened his arms and hugged him tightly.
Xie Liang wanted to explain to Xu He: "Brother He, I... I'm fine, I just didn't sleep well, and I'm a little dazed."
"Um."
Xu He asked the doctor to come and take Xie Liang's temperature. Seeing that his temperature had returned to normal, they arranged for him to be discharged from the hospital.
Xie Liang and Xu He returned to their home in the city to pack some things they needed, and then drove back to Xu He's villa in the suburbs.
The air in the suburbs is much fresher than in the city, and you can hear birds singing in the woods early in the morning.
After having breakfast at the hotel, Lu Bubu and Shi Xiaoyin took a taxi to the door of Xu He's villa.
As soon as he got off the car, Shi Xiaoyin looked at Lu Bubu with disdain as he walked towards the back of the car, and couldn't help but complain: "Why did you have to carry this thing over here?"
Lu Bubu walked back from the back of the car and lifted the whole bunch of green bananas on his shoulder. "Sister, I'm asking you if you know any etiquette. My brother transferred so much money to us to reimburse our food, drink and accommodation. Shouldn't we bring him some gifts?"
Shi Xiaoyin couldn't believe it: "You used Brother He's money to treat me? And you said it was your own?"
Lu Bubu smiled awkwardly and said, "I got carried away."
She knew it was unusual. When had this guy ever been so generous? Not only did he reimburse her for the airfare, he even booked such a luxurious hotel. Then again, Xu He had already given her the money, and you, Lu Bubu, were so reluctant to buy something decent.
Thinking of this, she laughed angrily: "Is this your etiquette?"
"That's right. These bananas are really expensive. We asked the farmers to cut them fresh."
"I want to chop you to death right now!" Shi Xiaoyin said as he kicked him.
Lu Bubu hurriedly ran up the stairs carrying the bunch of bananas, rushed to the villa gate and rang the doorbell.
As soon as the nanny opened the door, Xie Liang saw Lu Bubu rushing in with a large bunch of bananas on his shoulders, looking anxious.
Xie Liang: "Why..."
"Xie Liang, get out of the way! I'm going to kick this guy to death." Shi Xiaoyin chased after Lu Bubu in a hurry.
Xie Liang simply asked the nanny to open the door to let in some fresh air, and walked towards Lu Bubu and the others: "You're here so early."
Upon hearing this, Shi Xiaoyin stopped chasing after Lu Bubu and sat down on the sofa in the living room: "That's right, I made this guy angry for a while early in the morning."
Lu Bubu put the banana on his shoulder against the wall, sat on the other end of the sofa and muttered, "Why are you so angry? Just think of it as my treat."
"Shut up! I don't want to talk to you."
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Xie Liang quickly changed the subject: "What is this banana...?"
"We brought this specially for you, little brother. You can eat it after a few days to replenish your body." Lu Bu said.
Upon hearing this, the nanny silently carried away the bunch of green bananas from the corner.
Shi Xiaoyin glanced at him and said, "Oh, that's hilarious. Do you think Xie Liang is a monkey? You're still making up for it."
Lu Bubu: "Oh, sister, anger makes you old. Yesterday at Dongzi's funeral, you kicked——"
Shi Xiaoyin's face changed when he heard this: "Shut up!"
"My leg still hurts from being kicked..." Lu Bubu's voice became lower and lower as he spoke.
Xie Liang actually knew that Li Dong had passed away a long time ago, but he did not show it. He did not dare to face such a scene, so he was unable to see Dongzi off for the last time.
Xie Liang sat down on the sofa: "Dongzi..."
"He passed away peacefully, and his girlfriend too... After all, they both had each other as companions, so there was nothing to be sad about. We are not much better off." Shi Xiaoyin said calmly.
"Bubu, is your waist okay?" Xie Liang asked.
Hearing this, Lu Bubu glanced at Shi Xiaoyin's face and said, "It's okay, it's healed already. The doctor said it was just a superficial wound."
Shi Xiaoyin became angry when she thought of his pig-slaughtering scream that day, which made her embarrassed in the hospital.
She said bitterly, "What could possibly happen to him? If there was something wrong, he would have screamed like a pig being slaughtered."
At this time, Xu He came down from the second floor.
"Brother He is coming down, let's make the contract first." Xie Liang said as he stood up to prepare the things needed for the contract.
After a while, the four of them completed the contract, and a vortex symbol appeared on everyone's wrist, but only Lu Bubu's symbol was red.
Lu Bubu exposed the inside of his wrist and said to the others, "Hey, the next copy is mine."
Shi Xiaoyin said unhappily, "You don't need to tell me, we are not blind yet."
"Sister, are you still angry? Come on! Let me kill you a meal, so don't be angry." Lu Bubu said with a pained heart.
Shi Xiaoyin folded her arms and glanced at him sideways. After a while, she reluctantly said, "Okay, but don't use Brother He's money to treat me."
Lu Bubu muttered softly, "Women are so annoying. My brother's money is just as good as ours. They're all money. When you marry me, you'll have to pay for it..."
"What are you mumbling about?" Shi Xiaoyin asked.
Xu He interrupted their conversation: "You guys stay here first. There are a few guest rooms left on the first floor. Please feel free to use them."
"Hey, sorry to bother you two brothers." After saying that, Lu Bubu went to choose a room.
"Miss Xiaoyin, you should also go and choose a room and move in early. It won't be long before the next advent." Xie Liang said.
"Well, I'm sorry to bother you for this while." Shi Xiaoyin said and walked towards the guest room.
After Lu Bubu and the others moved in, Xie Liang's health recovered quickly.
Three months later, two doctors at Xie Liang's home assessed that his nerves had fully recovered. Xie Liang also felt that his legs were more flexible and powerful than before.
Seeing that he had recovered, Xu He asked the two resident doctors to move away and only needed them to come for regular follow-up visits.
That day, Xie Liang, Lu Bubu and others gathered on the sofa in the living room on the second floor to chat and discuss when the eve would come.
Shi Xiaoyin said with some worry: "If we come, it may take several days for us to come out. Will these two nannies..."
"No, Brother He told them that they would leave us alone unless we don't show up for a week." Xie Liang said.
"Damn it, it's so comfortable to be supported by my brother. I love you, brother." Lu Bubu said as he blew a kiss to Xu He who was on the other side of the sofa.
Xu He glanced at him indifferently and continued to fiddle with the laptop in his hand.
"The interval seems to be exceptionally long this time. I've gained a lot of weight." Shi Xiaoyin said, "By the way, Xie Liang, you're not suffering from insomnia anymore, are you?"
"I'm fine now." Xie Liang said.
He didn't know where Xu He got some incense from, but whenever he felt sleepy, Xu He would light it. His sleep gradually improved from then on, and he would dream about Xu He almost every time.
Once, Xie Liang was pulled into Su Yubai's dream, and Xu He was also there. The two fought from the island to the sea. After that, Xie Liang never dreamed of Su Yubai again.
