Chapter 348: Stay Alive to Stay in the Hospital
Zhang Song listened and sighed: "Master Xia, you are really responsible. You can agree to do such a thing and do it."
"I wasn't that responsible. It was mainly because I lacked merit at that time." Xia Wange said.
Zhang Song was quite far away and didn't hear clearly what Xia Wange said, but he heard her say that he was a bit immoral at that time.
Zhang Song had a hunch that he must have heard wrong, but he couldn't ask or explain the matter. He could only make an excuse that he was going to drive first, and then left quickly, leaving Xia Wange pushing Lu Qiu slowly walking on the campus road. They didn't speak the whole time.
After getting on the car and returning to Lu Qiu’s “resettlement house”.
Lu Qiu looked at Xia Wange, who was rummaging through her backpack next to the shoe cabinet. He waited for a while, but she didn't say anything, nor did she express her true feelings. So he asked, "Why did you lack merit at that time?"
"I'm always in need." Xia Wange raised his head, raised his eyebrows and chuckled.
"So short of merit that you almost went to the hospital because of eating super spicy crayfish?" Lu Qiu looked at Xia Wange and got closer. "I have never seen you lack merit to this extent."
"Of course you haven't seen it. I wasn't kidding when I said you were my shortcut. After we started working together, I hardly had to consume any merit. How many months has it been now? Well, adding the one I just dealt with and the one I consumed today, I can still live for seventeen months and two days. It's been a long time since I felt like I could live for nearly another year and a half."
"After all, I can only be in the hospital if I'm alive." Xia Wange shrugged and said indifferently, "If I die, I can only be buried on the spot. At that time, I will only think about accumulating merits as soon as possible. If others have any wishes, I will do it if I can. There is no need to be picky."
Lu Qiu frowned, and when he was about to say something, Xia Wange walked around behind him and pushed his wheelchair to the living room, saying as he walked, "When I was young and hot-tempered, I encountered some bad things while I was moving around down there. I got angry and turned the whole street upside down, using a year's worth of merit to turn the whole street upside down. At that time, I was also in college, my master was traveling, and my brothers and sisters were all in the mountains, so I had to solve everything myself."
"I can't quite remember how much life I had left at that time, but it seemed like there was only a little bit left, probably more than a month. Anyway, I could only move more and save my life."
Lu Qiu turned his head to look at Xia Wange, only to see that she was smiling. Her smile was bright and her eyes were shining, as if she had really remembered some fun things in the past. However, his heart ached when he heard it.
Xia Wange continued with a smile, "I hadn't officially debuted at that time, so I seldom meddle in worldly affairs. I always went to the underworld. Before I turned over a street, I was very proud. I would not intervene unless it was a big deal. I would only help solve a problem that I liked. But after that, I realized that I was really pretending. When I saw an ant passing by, I would ask it if it needed to cross the river."
"I couldn't live outside when I was a freshman. Sometimes I had to wait until the room inspection was finished before sneaking out of the dormitory. Sometimes I was so busy that I didn't go back home until midnight. At that time, Zhao Wan and I were in the same dormitory. For a while, she always looked at me and hesitated to talk. Later, she came to talk to me angrily, thinking that I was dating a scumbag who often went out of the dormitory in the middle of the night to go out for a date. She said that it was better to break up with a scumbag who didn't care about your safety as soon as possible."
"Later on, I told him I was out doing night work."
"Then she asked me whether I was selling my art or my body. If I was selling my body, she advised me to keep myself clean. If I couldn't keep myself clean, she asked me to take measures."
"Anyway, our relationship has been pretty good since then. So good that I took her with me to deal with something once to thank her for caring about me. If her physical condition wasn't unsuitable for seeing ghosts, I would have taken her to see ghosts."
"As expected, your physique is better. Not only can I see, but I can also push you up."
Lu Qiu: “…”
I was feeling quite sad before, but now all of a sudden my teeth are itching again.
"If it were now, I would definitely not do this." Xia Wange smiled and sat on the sofa, "I would come back first to accumulate merit, and then go back to kill them all."
"That time was really..."
"I don't have much time to live, and I have to prepare for final exams. There are so many things to memorize, I feel like my brain is not enough."
Hearing this, Lu Qiu took Xia Wange's hand and clasped it in his own palm. "I don't know how much I can still help you, and I don't know how long you will need my help. You said I was your shortcut, and you also said that we can't rely too much on shortcuts. In short, can I, as a shortcut, take you a little further within the scope of conditions, so that your future path will not be so difficult?"
"You remember what I said very clearly." Xia Wange lowered his eyes and looked at their tightly clasped hands. "Then do you remember what I also said, that we are shortcuts for each other? Oh, that's not right. Let me sort out the logical relationship."
It was clearly Lu Qiu who was helping him in this regard, but why did his words make it seem as if he was the one begging?
"You are not my shortcut." Lu Qiu held Xia Wange's hand tightly, "You are my future path."
Xia Wange said that if he didn't release the purple energy in his body, his body would soon be constantly attacked by the purple energy, and he would eventually die of weakness. If he hadn't met Xia Wange, he would have been completely paralyzed in bed now.
Or maybe he couldn't stand the days of being paralyzed in bed and unable to control himself, so he ended his life before he completely lost his ability to move.
In fact, a short time before Xia Wange appeared, he had already felt that his leg pain was becoming more and more frequent. Others would have dull leg pain on rainy days, but he would have a dull pain on sunny days. The better the weather, the more uncomfortable his legs would be at noon.
He also clearly felt at that time that the areas in his legs where he had no sensation were growing faster and faster.
During that period, he often went to see doctors outside. They said that if Western medicine couldn't cure something, one had to seek help from Chinese medicine. As long as he heard that a Chinese medicine doctor had cured someone's legs, no matter whether it was true or not, he would find a way to get the address and go there.
But after his hopes were dashed time and time again, he actually no longer had any hope for his future. In the end, when he heard the doctor say his leg could not be cured, he was very calm.
Because he was used to disappointment.
It was as if I couldn't understand anything at all, and I hadn't done anything utterly unscrupulous, but my legs started to lose feeling inexplicably.
He was very disappointed with himself and extremely disappointed with his fate.
