Chapter 28

After seeing one more person in the courtyard, Yun Wuque already knew the other party's choice.

"Have you made up your mind?"

"yes."

“Once we start, there will be no turning back.”

"I believe in Master, and I believe in you."

Yun Wuque placed a clean handkerchief under Lu Chao's wrist, then he took out a knife and lightly cut the other's wrist. Soon red blood flowed out from the wound, and as the blood slowly dripped, the white handkerchief seemed to be blooming with red plum blossoms.

In his hand he held a delicate and small colored glass bottle, which emitted colorful light under the sunlight.

The ranking rewards in the game arena are refreshed and changed every month. This is a method to attract players. The puppet worm was once one of the top five rewards in the arena.

Shuangbei: Yes, that thug was me.

Many players who thought the other party was weak and unable to take care of themselves: *** (▼へ▼メ)

Yun Wuque opened the bottle cap and pointed the bottle mouth at the wound on Lu Chao's wrist. Soon, a translucent insect about the size of a grain of rice crawled out through the bottle mouth.

Lu Jingci watched the puppet worm's every move in amazement. This worm was much better than he had imagined. The moment he saw the puppet worm drill into his master's body, his breathing froze for a second.

After seeing the puppet worm drilled in, Yun Wuque simply treated Lu Chao's wound, and soon the opponent's wrist stopped bleeding.

Looking at Lu Jingci, who was standing there motionless like a statue staring at Lu Chao, Yun Wuque remembered his disordered breathing rhythm at that moment, and he said, "One hour. If he can survive the puppet worm, he will wake up within an hour."

"Okay, thank you."

Lu's voice was a little hoarse when he spoke in shock. Although he had made the choice, the process of making the choice must have been extremely painful.

Yun Wuque was not surprised that the other party made such a choice, or he knew from the beginning that Lu Jingci would definitely make such a choice. These few short days of consideration only made the other party more determined.

In fact, Yun Wuque still admired the other party very much. He originally thought that the other party would take a little longer to find him. Yun Wuque could feel the importance of Lu Chao to Lu Jingci. If such an important person to him was lying on the bed now, it would be difficult for Yun Wuque to make a choice in such a short time. However, given that person's nature, it would probably be him, not the other party, lying on the bed.

Shen Yuqing: Xiao Yunyun is too modest! I am just an ordinary innkeeper!

Yun Wuque: Please don't use redundant words or any weird interjections.

Shuangbei: Schizophrenia is bad for your health.

Lu Jingci rarely showed his emotions so openly. After his master fell into a coma, he kept all his emotions to himself. Someone once commented on Lu Jingci, saying that he was like a deep and tranquil ocean, and one day all the accumulated emotions would completely erupt and cause a tsunami like a natural disaster.

The majesty of Commander Jiuyou does not allow anyone to provoke him, and few people dare to joke with Lu Jingci. Most people are trembling with fear when they see him. Perhaps because of this, Lu Jingci's emotions fluctuate so much in front of Yun Wuque, who is relatively unfamiliar and not afraid of him.

Lu Jingci stayed by the bed. As time passed, Lu Chao, who was lying on the bed, began to struggle slightly, and sweat almost soaked his clothes.

"Cloud....."

Seeing Lu Jingci's look of help, Yun Wuque said, "He can only rely on himself."

Lu Jingci held Lu Chao's hand tightly. It was the only thing he could do.

"Master..."

A quarter of an hour later, Lu Chao's body stopped struggling. Lu Chao's shocked face looked extremely ugly. He could feel his master's pulse getting weaker and weaker.

Yun Wuque lowered his eyes slightly. The two people present understood the risk of the puppet worm from the beginning.

Lu Ci's eyes turned red with shock. He held the other person's hand, lowered his head slightly and buried it in his arm, his body shaking as if in convulsion.

"Yo! I'm really crying!"

The person speaking has a strange voice, but one can also hear the sarcasm in his tone.

Lu's voice suddenly cooled down in shock. He raised his head suddenly and saw that familiar face, looking at him with a smile.

"Master!"

"Eh." Looking at his disciple who had obviously grown up a lot, Lu Chao responded heartlessly.

It seems that he is a person with a bad temper, Yun Wuque commented silently from the side.

"Take this first." Yun Wuque took out a pill and handed it to Lu Chao.

"It's quite sweet." Before Lu Jingci could say anything, Lu Chao had already swallowed the pill and even commented on it.

Lu's shocking speech: .....

"You two chat first. I'll wait for you outside." Yun Wuque said after seeing that the other party's breathing had calmed down a lot after taking the pill. When he was about to leave the room, he paused and said, "You can drink a small amount of water."

"Okay." Lu Jingci realized that the other party was deliberately leaving space for him and his master.

The weather outside was just right, and Yun Wuque was sitting on the rocking chair in the courtyard. If people do not get exposed to the sun for a long time, they are likely to get skin diseases, which can greatly increase the probability of physical illness. Therefore, the rocking chair in the courtyard was probably prepared for Lu Chao. Now that Lu Chao has woken up, the two of them must have a lot to talk about, so this rocking chair was temporarily requisitioned by Yun Wuque.

Yun Wuque lay in the rocking chair, feeling the sunshine and breeze. At this moment, it seemed as if he could see the appearance of another person in him.

Shen Yuqing: It’s really comfortable to sunbathe!

Perhaps it was because the sunlight was too warm, Yun Wuque actually felt a little sleepy. Gradually, he seemed to hear the sound of waves hitting the rocks. The familiar sound made his body more and more relaxed. Just when he was about to fall into a deep sleep, the sound of the door opening woke him up.

Seeing Lu Jingci coming out, Yun Wuque yawned, his blue eyes seemed to sparkle with waves, "Are you done talking?"

"Um."

Yun Wuque stretched his body and then stood up.

"Master can't remember what happened that day." Lu said in surprise after Yun Wuque walked into the room.

Yun Wuque briefly examined Lu Chao's body, and then said, "There are many reasons for amnesia. His body is not seriously ill, and the reason for amnesia is probably psychological. The human heart is the most difficult thing to grasp. Maybe you can take him to see a familiar environment to see if it can make him remember something. But I don't recommend you go now. It's better to let your master rest for a few days."

"Yeah." Lu nodded in surprise.

"Memory recovery is a long and uncertain process. I hope you don't have too high expectations." Yun Wuque was not trying to attack the other party. He just wanted to make him understand the uncontrollability of amnesia. After all, the greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment.

"Thank you, Mr. Yun, for saving my life. You have already told me everything." Lu Chao clasped his hands together and expressed his sincere gratitude.

Yun Wuque's expression remained unchanged. He said word by word, "You're welcome. I've paid for it."

Lu Chao smiled slightly when he heard this. His disciple had a cold personality and he was worried whether he could make close friends. But now it seems that he doesn't need to worry too much.

"Don't worry, I'll send someone to deliver the medical fees to you tomorrow." Lu said in surprise.

Lu Chao: Well, we still have to worry about it.

"Now I need to take out the puppet worm. Please stretch out your right hand." Since the other party has woken up, there is no need for the puppet worm to stay in his body.

Lu Chao stretched out his hand to show the wound, and Yun Wuque also cut a wound on his own hand. This wound was much deeper than Lu Chao's. As more and more blood flowed out, even the air was filled with the smell of blood.

The puppet worm seemed to smell the blood belonging to Yun Wuque. It poked its head out from Lu Chao's wound. Its original translucent color had turned into blood red, and its body had also expanded three times. The familiar smell of blood stimulated the puppet worm, and after hesitating for a moment, it quickly drilled out of Lu Chao's body.

The puppet worm moved very quickly and crawled to Yun Wuque's wound in almost an instant. The next second, a silver light flashed, and the puppet worm was nailed to the pillar on the side of the bed by the silver needle.

"you...."

The puppet worm was extremely fast. If it weren't for the silver needle, it would have already drilled into Yun Wuque's body. Lu Jingci looked at the young man in front of him and didn't know what to say for a moment. Yun Wuque only told him what kind of risks he would face, but he never said what kind of risks he would face. Thinking of this, Lu Jingci inexplicably felt a blockage in his chest.

Looking at the puppet worm that was fixed by the silver needle and gradually dried up, Yun Wuque said calmly: "Once the puppet worm has successfully parasitized, forcibly removing it will lead to death. This is the best choice."

Although his blood can lure the puppet worm to come out, Yun Wuque also does not want to become the next parasite of the puppet worm.

"Thank you."

Lu Jingci, who was able to solve strange cases and once left ministers speechless, felt for the first time that he was tongue-tied. He could only repeat the words of thanks that he had said many times.

"This silver needle is called Prajna. Could you please help me make a new one, Commander Lu?" Yun Wuque didn't want a silver needle stained with insect blood. Although the silver needle needed to be disinfected before use, he still didn't want it.

Puppet worm: When it is useful, it is called sweetie, and when it is useless, it is called bug.

"good."

Lu Jingci didn't think it was a problem. Compared with the rare treasure, a silver needle was insignificant. He even wanted the other party to ask for more, but based on the other party's personality, it was impossible for him to continue asking.

Shen Yuqing: Do you have any misunderstandings about him?

Yun Wuque: Are you everywhere?

Shen Yuqing: Because you are here.

Yun Wuque:......

"Do you have paper and pen?" Yun Wuque asked.

Lu Jingci nodded. He would sometimes come here to accompany his master, and whenever he felt upset he would copy books here.

Yun Wuque wrote down the prescription on a piece of paper and marked the dosage accurately. "Your master has just woken up and is still very weak. When you get the medicine, you must follow the dosage I wrote. You must control your diet in the first few days and try not to eat too greasy food. As for the lack of strength, it is normal. You can exercise a small amount every day and your body will slowly recover."

"clear."

"As for memory, it is very likely that what happened that day caused your master severe trauma. His body's protective mechanism forced him to forget what happened that day. Whether he can remember it or not may all depend on fate."

After explaining everything, Yun Wuque packed up his medicine box and said goodbye to the two of them.

Seeing his silly apprentice still standing there stupidly, Lu Chao said helplessly, "Aren't you going to see him off?"
