Chapter 155 Three Things
"Master, I've already told you everything I've done," Zhao Rongrong said anxiously, "You can't just stand by and watch me die!"
"Everyone has to pay the price for what they have done." Zhong Nianyao looked at Zhao Rongrong and said sarcastically, "You have gained so much, it's time to pay the price, isn't it?"
"Master, I can pay any price, but please save me." Zhao Rongrong became even more anxious. "I can pay anything, as long as you are willing to save my life."
"Okay!" Zhong Nianyao responded readily.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present was stunned.
After hearing Zhong Nianyao say this, everyone thought Zhao Rongrong was beyond saving. Or rather, Zhong Nianyao no longer intended to save Zhao Rongrong. However, Zhong Nianyao suddenly changed her tune and said that Zhao Rongrong could be saved. For a moment, everyone wondered if they had just heard something.
Zhao Rongrong was almost crying with joy. She quickly expressed her gratitude, "Master, thank you, thank you so much."
Although Zhong Nianyao was young, she felt that the other party was really capable because he could see so many things. Regardless of whether he was just fooling her, as long as he was willing to help her, her life would be saved.
"Don't thank me yet." Zhong Nianyao raised her hand and continued, "The only one who can save you now is you, not me. As long as you can do three things, your life will be saved."
"Master, tell me." Zhao Rongrong's attitude became much more sincere. "Let alone three things, even if it's ten, I can do it."
Chen Mei, who was not far away, looked at Zhao Rongrong with a look of resentment and unwillingness. She didn't mind dying at all; she just wanted Zhao Rongrong to go to hell.
But now Zhong Nianyao wanted to save Zhao Rongrong. This was really unfair. Zhao Rongrong treated her child like this without paying any price.
"You should first listen to what the three things are!" Zhong Nianyao curled her lips into a meaningful smile, "First, you and Chen Mei will each give up twenty years of your life in exchange for that little ghost's reincarnation."
"I do. I do."
Before Zhao Rongrong could even open her mouth, Chen Mei couldn't wait to speak, her eyes filled with surprise. She had originally thought her child would be doomed to eternal damnation, his soul shattered into pieces. Unexpectedly, there was a silver lining; her child still had a chance at reincarnation.
Not to mention losing twenty years of life, even if she were asked to die now, she would be willing.
Unlike Chen Mei's straightforward agreement, Zhao Rongrong hesitated immediately after hearing that her life span would be reduced by twenty years. Everyone has a fixed lifespan, and she didn't know exactly how long she would live. But she was truly reluctant to shave twenty years off her lifespan.
As if she could tell Zhao Rongrong was not far away, Chen Mei looked at Zhong Nianyao and quickly said, "Master, if Zhao Rongrong refuses, I am willing to sacrifice forty years of my life, or even die now, as long as my child can have a chance to be reborn."
"It has to be the two of you." Zhong Nianyao said calmly, "You two are both involved in this matter, so the ones who have to pay the price must be you two. You alone cannot bear all the consequences."
After saying that, she turned her head and looked at Zhao Rongrong, and continued, "If you don't agree, then I suggest that you start to deal with your own affairs after you return. Your funeral can be put on the agenda within half a month."
Instantly, Zhao Rongrong's body stiffened, then she gritted her teeth and agreed, "Okay, I agree."
Now she was wondering if she had made a mistake by agreeing to the three things so readily at the beginning. The first thing had already ended like this, and she didn't know what price she would have to pay for the remaining two things.
Chen Mei, who was standing by, breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that Zhao Rongrong finally agreed.
"Then let's deal with the first thing first!" Zhong Nianyao said directly, "After the first thing is resolved, we can talk about the second and third things!"
Zhao Rongrong didn't say anything, but Chen Mei was genuinely relieved. She had hoped to resolve the issue of the child's reincarnation as soon as possible, so that she could truly feel at ease.
Under everyone's attention, Zhong Nianyao stood up, and then asked Zhao Rongrong and Chen Mei to stand up.
Then, she stood opposite the two men, and began to make seals with her hands, while muttering spells in a low voice.
Zhao Rongrong and Chen Mei didn't feel anything at first, but as time went on, they suddenly began to emit dazzling light.
Immediately afterwards, they felt waves of piercing pain in their chests. It felt as if someone was pinching their hearts, and even made them feel like they were on the verge of death.
Chen Mei endured the pain silently, biting her lips and not making any sound, for fear of affecting Zhong Nian Yao and causing something to go wrong.
On the other hand, Zhao Rongrong was deeply regretting what she had just agreed to. She had never imagined that sacrificing twenty years of her life would be such a painful thing.
She wanted to cry out in pain, but found that she couldn't make any sound at all.
After a while, a drop of blood suddenly appeared out of nowhere on the chest of Zhao Rongrong and Chen Mei.
Zhong Nianyao waved her hand and attracted both drops of blood to her front. Then she formed a hand seal again, and the two drops of blood merged into one, then instantly disappeared into thin air.
The light on Zhao Rongrong and Chen Mei also disappeared, but they seemed unable to hold on any longer and collapsed to the ground.
Everyone looked at the two of them and found that their faces were pale and bloodless, as if they had suffered a serious illness.
"Boss, what happened to them?" Zhao Xuanlang couldn't help but ask, and also asked the doubts in Zhao's mother and Wu Qiong's hearts.
"What do you think caused their lifespan to be shortened?" Zhong Nianyao rolled her eyes at Zhao Xuanlang before explaining, "They lost their heart blood, so of course they're weak."
Heart blood is the essence of a person's spirit. If you lose heart blood, your entire spirit will naturally be greatly reduced. Otherwise, why is it said that you will lose twenty years of life?
