Pu Erge began to urge everyone to leave, but Xu Yuehuai felt that things shouldn't end this way. She stepped forward, stopped Pu Erge's hand that was trying to stop her, and cautiously said, "Second Brother, let me try."
"It's alright, little sister. Grandpa has been with us for so long, that's enough." Second Brother Pu didn't want Xu Yuehuai to try. If the attempt failed, Xu Yuehuai would definitely blame him.
Since everyone has to die, why should the living continue to grieve for the dead? That's neither appropriate nor reasonable.
Pu Erge wouldn't allow such a thing to happen. He refused Xu Yuehuai, but when they met eyes, Pu Erge's compassion was stirred again. He lowered his head, and Pu Dage, who was standing to the side, explained, "Let our little sister go in and take a look. If she doesn't go in and try today, she will only feel more guilty after Grandpa dies, knowing that she had the chance to save him but failed."
Xu Yuehuai agreed with Brother Pu's statement and turned her gaze to Brother Pu again, wanting to hear the man's opinion. He kept his lips tightly closed, his face showing hesitation, but in the end he stepped aside to let her in.
Xu Yuehuai had never seen such a disease before. The only thing she could do now was to record all the symptoms that Grandpa Pu had experienced, and then she would consult relevant medical books based on those symptoms. That was all she could do.
Fortunately, there are many books stored in the space, many of which are not available outside. Perhaps Xu Yuehuai will want to find a book there.
Xu Yuehuai sat by the bed and began to take Grandpa Pu's pulse. Her brows were furrowed and her expression was grave. She said to the two men standing there, "Eldest brother, second brother, you can go out first. I need some time. If anything happens, I will definitely let you know immediately."
Pu's eldest brother and second brother came out of the house and stood at the door for a short while. Pu's eldest brother then pulled him away, saying, "If we stay here, we'll only infect our little sister and she'll need treatment. Let's go and tidy up the house properly."
That's true. Ever since that incident, the house has never been properly cleaned. Dust has started to accumulate everywhere, making it look like no one has lived there for a long time.
After learning about Grandpa Pu's condition, Xu Yuehuai hurriedly entered the space and said to the two people resting nearby, "Quickly help me find books about organ failure. Why is this happening?"
As Xu Yuehuai spoke, she muttered to herself, finding it all too unbelievable and illogical.
He only got into a fight, lost, and was seriously injured. Why has it turned out like this? Normally, even if someone is seriously injured, they wouldn't reach the point of organ failure!
This time, Yuan Shui didn't confront Xu Yuehuai directly. He started flipping through the medical books, but after going through them, he found nothing useful. A hint of frustration appeared on his face. He turned around and saw Xu Yuehuai still searching diligently, his eyes filled with determination, as if he was determined to find the information today. So, he picked up the medical book that was placed aside again.
This time, however, he wore an inexplicable air of irritation, haphazardly flipping through medical books. The three of them spent the entire night studying, but couldn't figure anything out. The next morning, as the sun rose, Xu Yuehuai sat dejectedly on the ground, muttering, "How could this be..."
She found no clues about the matter. Before entering the space, she used her spiritual power to examine Old Master Pu's body. When she discovered that the abnormality was more than just a little, she began to panic.
There was a knock on the door. Brother Pu and Brother Pu's second brother stood outside with breakfast in their hands. Seeing that there was no response, they exchanged a glance. "Could our little sister be asleep in there? Should we go in and check on her?"
“She told us yesterday not to go in no matter what happens in the country. It would be inappropriate for us to rush in now.” Brother Pu had his own concerns, but they were understandable.
When Pu Erge heard this, he realized it was true, so he could only stand at the door and wait anxiously, and then knocked on the door again.
The two had been waiting at the door for quite some time, and when they couldn't wait any longer, they looked at each other and saw a strange emotion in each other's eyes. "Won't something happen if we wait any longer? Why don't we just barge in? What if my little sister faints inside?"
Now even Brother Pu started to hesitate. Logically speaking, if Xu Yuehuai was still inside, the noise they were making outside the door would be quite loud enough for someone to hear. But the fact that she hadn't come out yet was already suspicious enough.
"Hmm." Pu Erge wanted to barge in, and Pu Dage nodded in response.
Both of them were ready to get serious and were about to kick the door open, but just as they raised their feet, before they could even put their feet down, the door suddenly opened from the inside. Xu Yuehuai stood in the doorway, her face pale and haggard. "Come in."
As she spoke, she walked into the house, sat down on a stool, her hands hanging limply at her sides, her eyes dull and lifeless, as if drained of all her energy. She scoffed, thinking that she had the ability to save the people she wanted to save, but now it seemed that she was nothing more than that.
The only thing we can do is try to transfer all the spiritual power in her body to Grandpa Pu. In this way, perhaps we can prolong the old man's life.
Pu Erge looked at Xu Yuehuai with heartache, "Little sister, have something to eat. After you eat, I'll take you out for a walk. Qingcheng has changed so much in the past few days. It's so beautiful. There are flowers and plants everywhere. You must go and see it."
As Pu Erge spoke, he became much more talkative than before. Xu Yuehuai listened quietly without offering her own opinion until the person on the bed coughed twice and showed some reaction. Only then did Xu Yuehuai seem to come back to life, and she turned to look at the old man.
Grandpa Pu opened his eyes and scanned the people in the room. When he saw Xu Yuehuai, there was no surprise or astonishment in his eyes. He waved to Xu Yuehuai, wanting her to come closer to him.
Xu Yuehuai obediently stepped forward and squatted down next to Grandpa Pu. Her eyes were tired, and her face was pale and droopy, looking completely listless.
"I...I heard your voice a long time ago, girl." Old Master Pu was having a hard time speaking, and it took him a long time to recover after saying just one sentence.
Xu Yuehuai listened from the side, her hands trembling. She blamed herself for not having the ability. She wanted to save people. Why was it that even though she had tried so hard, she still had to watch the people she cared about die in front of her, and she was powerless to do anything!
