Chapter 197 Love Brain
"More than two hundred years? Then how old are you now?" Lin Qian doubted her ears very much, but looking at Mu Chao's expression, he didn't seem to be lying, so she asked in shock.
Mu Chao narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment, then shook his head and said in a rather vicissitudes of life tone: "It's been too long, I can't remember clearly."
Lin Qian looked at Mu Chao at this moment and was suddenly dazed. She seemed to have never looked at Mu Chao seriously. He looked very young. From the outside, he looked only about twenty-three or twenty-four years old.
Although he looked very young and still had a hint of youthfulness in him, his eyes were dark and full of vicissitudes of life, like an abyss that made it impossible to see through.
"I vaguely remember that year, I was seven years old and my sister was ten.
My mother was seriously ill with tuberculosis and was dying. To pay for her medical treatment, my father sold the cows and sheep, and everything in the house except me and my sister.
Later, when we had no money, my father went to the mountains to mine. My father knew boxing and kung fu, and he was tall and strong, so he made a lot of money.
But my mother's health got worse and worse. One day she even coughed up a lot of blood, which sprayed all over me and my sister.
Just when the doctor said my mother would not live for more than two days, my father, who was mining in the mountains, suddenly came back and brought this thing back with him. He taught my mother.
From that day on, my mother's illness gradually got better. At that time, my sister and I thought that our family would be able to live the happy life we had before.
But things did not turn out as we had hoped. The person who treated A Niang was a highly respected elder in our clan.
A'niang was about to die, but suddenly her health improved and became better and better, which attracted his attention.
Just at this time, news came from the mine that the medicinal jade had been stolen, and that person immediately thought that the thing should be in our house.
He took advantage of my father not being at home, went to my house, accidentally killed my mother, and stole the medicinal chalcedony. At that time, my sister and I were herding sheep outside and didn't know about it.
My father came back earlier than us. After seeing my mother's body, he took a knife, went to the man's house, killed everyone, and took back the medicinal chalcedony.
There were many people in that family, and my father went alone. Although he won, he was also seriously injured. After giving the medicinal chalcedony to me and my sister, he accompanied my mother and left.
Since then, my sister and I have been traveling around the world with the medicinal chalcedony. Later we found that our bodies had changed after we carried the medicinal chalcedony with us.
Ordinary people grow older year by year, but it may take us ten years to grow one year older."
After listening to Mu Chao's long story, Lin Qian finally understood the function of medicinal chalcedony. However, she was not very surprised. After all, her family had all traveled through time after death, and she even had a spaceship.
It would definitely be more attractive if it were told to others than what happened in the Mu Dynasty.
Lin Qian now understood: "No wonder your martial arts are so powerful. It turns out that you are over 200 years old. Then, what about your sister? What happened to your sister? How did she become like that?"
Now that I think about it, Mu Chao's martial arts skills crushed everyone else. He must have practiced for a hundred or two hundred years. No wonder he was so powerful.
Lin Qian suddenly asked about Mu Xi, and Mu Chao's face changed. He gritted his teeth and said, "Humph! I get angry when I talk about this. My sister is over 200 years old, but she still acted like a little girl and got cheated by someone.
That guy has nothing good in him except his pretty face, so why did my sister fall in love with him?!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Qian had a general understanding. Someone must have deliberately contacted Mu Xi, made her fall in love with him, and then attempted to drug her.
The result was similar to what Lin Qian expected.
Mu Xi and Mu Chao, brother and sister, have been hiding in the mountains and dare not go out.
Mu Chao resembled his father, strong and tall, while Mu Xi resembled his mother, delicate and frail, unable to practice martial arts. Therefore, Mu Chao had always been the breadwinner of the family. He would go out for a month or two, earning some money to help support the family.
And when he went out this time, Mu Xi almost died in front of him.
After he came out of the mountain that time, Mu Xi rescued a man who fell from a cliff and broke both legs at the bottom of the mountain. Mu Xi set his bones and took care of him for a month or two.
During the one or two months of contact, feelings gradually developed between the two and finally fell in love.
Of course, Mu Xi only thought that the two of them were in love with each other, and that person was just pretending to be nice to Mu Xi after discovering the effect of the medicinal chalcedony.
When Mu Chaoyi said this, he trembled all over and was filled with murderous intent. He wished that the man was standing in front of him at this moment, and he would definitely cut him into pieces.
Just at this moment, the door was opened and Wei Xiaoran walked in. He was obviously stunned when he saw the two people sitting opposite each other at the table. Seeing Mu Chao full of murderous aura, he was even more confused.
Lin Qian's eyes lit up, and she asked Wei Xiaoran to sit next to her, and took a red date cake to chew on.
"What's going on? What are you doing?" Wei Xiaoran asked in a sour tone.
Lin Qian shushed Wei Xiaoran, pointed at the medicinal chalcedony on the table, and whispered, "Shh, be quiet, listen to a story."
Mu Chao sat opposite, watching the two people paying no attention to him, exchanging glances and whispering to each other, and rolled his eyes speechlessly.
He immediately gave up the desire to continue, but Lin Qian urged him: "Go on! What happened next? What happened next?"
Looking at Lin Qian's bright eyes, Mu Chao sighed helplessly, and then continued to tell the follow-up.
The man behind wanted to trick Mu Xi into getting married, and then let Mu Xi use the medicinal chalcedony as her dowry, so that the two of them could live together forever.
Although Mu Xi was in love, she still maintained a bit of rationality when facing Yao Yucui. After all, her parents died because of Yao Yucui.
She refused the man's request, saying that the medicinal chalcedony belonged to her brother and she couldn't do that. She also told the man from the bottom of her heart that she was willing to not live forever and stay with him for the rest of her life.
The result is obvious. The man agreed to Mu Xi on the surface, but was secretly planning to get the medicinal chalcedony. On the day of their wedding, the man drugged Mu Xi and successfully got the medicinal chalcedony.
Although the drug worked on Mu Xi, it was not very effective. Mu Xi was unconscious for only a short while before waking up and witnessing the man stealing the medicinal chalcedony with his own eyes.
Facing the sober Mu Xi, the man did not feel the slightest bit of guilt, but instead revealed his ugly face.
Only then did Mu Xi realize that this person was not the young master who was framed by his clansmen and pushed off the cliff.
He was a famous gangster, cruel and ruthless, killing people like crazy. He was being hunted by soldiers and had no choice but to jump off the cliff in order to get a chance to survive.
