In the hospital, Tang Dahai had already been sent to the operating room. Tang Zheng and Liu Qingmei sat in the corridor, anxiously waiting.
Tang Zheng remorsefully buried his head in his knees. If it wasn't for him, his grandfather wouldn't have become like this. He fell into deep self-blame.
Liu Qingmei comforted: "Tang Zheng, don't worry. Heaven helps the worthy. Your grandfather will be fine."
Tang Zheng didn't say a word, silently praying.
Suddenly, the sound of footsteps approached. Ye Dingdang and the others rushed over and asked with concern: "Tang Zheng, how is your grandfather?"
Tang Zheng looked up at them and said: "He's still in the operating room. Why are you here? "
"We just went to the police station and heard that you came to the hospital, so we rushed over."
"Thank you."
"Boss, don't say thank you. This is what we should do." Feng Yong said.
Feng Siniang nodded and said: "You saved our family's Dingdang's life. This is what we should do."
The others looked at Tang Zheng and Ye Dingdang in surprise. They didn't know that there was such a thing between them.
Ye Dingdang looked at the anxious and worried Tang Zheng. It was completely different from the confident Tang Zheng. It made people feel a kind of heartache.
She wanted to say a few words of comfort, but found that all words were pale and powerless. Just then, the door of the operating room opened and Tang Dahai was pushed out.
Tang Zheng hurried over and asked: "Doctor, how is my grandfather?"
"His life is saved for the time being." The doctor hesitated, "But … the situation is not optimistic. His heart originally had a problem. This time, he was agitated and his condition worsened. He must be hospitalized for treatment and observation. As for what will happen in the end, we can't guarantee."
Tang Zheng's head throbbed. His heart ached.
"Kid, his life force has decreased by a lot. He only has half a month left." Tian Chanzi suddenly said.
"What? Half a month?" Tang Zheng was shocked. The old man originally still had twenty days of lifespan, but now he had actually lost a few days. The time left for Tang Zheng was becoming less and less. He had to find the Heavenly Fragrant Flower as soon as possible and break through to the Third Grade Refining Qi, but this was almost impossible. It was as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
"I can't give up. I have to let Grandpa live."
"Kid, sometimes people have to face the cruel reality. Don't push yourself too hard," Tian Chanzi advised.
"Shut up!" Tang Zheng involuntarily roared out, causing the others to jump in fright as they looked at him in shock.
"Tang Zheng (Boss), what's wrong with you?" Everyone asked in unison.
"I'm fine." Tang Zheng changed the topic and said that he agreed to be hospitalized. Then, he went to go through the hospitalization procedures. He only had a few dozen yuan with him. Even the cost of the surgery was paid for by Liu Qingmei.
"Tang Zheng, I'll pay for the hospitalization fees. When you have money in the future you can pay me back." Liu Qingmei saw his distress and hurriedly said.
"You don't have to worry about money. The most important thing is to cure the old man's illness." Feng Siniang stated.
Feng Yong hurriedly nodded his head and patted his chest saying: "Boss, your Grandpa is my Grandpa. How much money do you need? I'll ask my dad to give it to you."
Tang Zheng looked at the several people and shook his head saying: "I'll think of a way to get the money. Thank you everyone for your kindness."
He knew that his family only had twenty thousand yuan and this was the savings of the two of them. But hospitalization was a bottomless pit. He did not know how long this twenty thousand yuan would last but he did not want to accept other people's gifts. He believed that he would be able to get through this difficult time.
Seeing that he had made up his mind, no one tried to persuade him. A moment later, Tang Zheng finished the hospitalization procedures. Tang Dahai's anesthetic had also worn off. He woke up and unconsciously shouted: "Little Zheng did not break the law. Little Zheng was wrongly accused."
"Grandpa, I'm fine." Tang Zheng held his hand tightly. Tang Dahai opened his eyes and exclaimed: "Little Zheng, am I not dreaming? The police said you broke the law and arrested you. "
"Grandpa, this is all a misunderstanding. It's fine." Tang Zheng explained.
Tang Dahai let out a sigh of relief and said: "I was just saying how could my grandson break the law. It must be a mistake. It's good that you're fine. Yi, why am I in the hospital? "
"Grandpa, you just fainted."
"I'm fine. Let's go home. This hospital costs too much money." Tang Dahai struggled to get up but was held down by Tang Zheng, "Grandpa, your body has not fully recovered. The doctor said that you should stay a few more days for observation."
"My body is fine. Why would I stay in the hospital? It's a waste of money." Tang Dahai waved his hand and said with heartache.
"Old man, just listen to the doctor." Feng Siniang also advised.
Only then did Tang Dahai notice that there were other people in the room. He looked at these strangers in astonishment. Tang Zheng introduced them: "Grandpa, these are my teachers and classmates."
"Aiya, I've troubled you guys too much …" Tang Dahai said with embarrassment.
"Old man, you should take care of your body. Don't think about anything else. This way, Tang Zheng can focus on his studies, right?" Liu Qingmei kindly advised.
Tang Dahai hesitated for a moment, looked at everyone and said: "I'm really fine. This is an old problem. It's not a problem."
"Grandpa, just listen to me this time. There's no room for discussion." Tang Zheng firmly said. Tang Dahai stared at him for a while and sighed. He had no choice but to compromise.
"Old man, we'll go back first. Tang Zheng, if you need anything just give us a call." The others said their goodbyes.
"Little Zheng, you send everyone off." Tang Dahai said.
Tang Zheng sent them off to the elevator. Liu Qingmei pulled Tang Zheng to the side and said: "Tang Zheng, as soon as the police have news, I'll inform you. If you want to harm my student, I definitely won't agree. You can rest assured."
"Thank you Teacher Liu, I want to take a few days off."
"Sure, take good care of your grandpa."
After sending them off, Tang Zheng returned to the room. He already had a plan. His current priority was to cultivate and find the Heaven Fragrant Flower. This was why he asked for leave. However, he could not tell his grandpa otherwise he would definitely not agree. He planned to cultivate at night and search for the Heaven Fragrant Flower during the day.
Tang Zheng returned home and paid the deposit. He then chatted with his grandpa. He insisted on staying and waited for his grandpa to fall asleep before impatiently cultivating.
There were two other patients in the room. It was not convenient for him to meditate and cultivate. Just as he was worrying about this, Tian Chanzi told him that he did not need to meditate to cultivate. As long as he was calm and wholeheartedly immersed in it, it would be fine.
He was overjoyed as he sat on a chair. Not long after, he entered a meditative state and began to cultivate the Ancient Clear Heaven Scroll.
Ordinary Balance Mountain.
Tang Zheng brought a rope early in the morning to the back of the mountain. Looking at the endless cliff, he tied the rope to his body and slowly moved down the mountain.
The sun had already risen to the middle of the sky, but he did not stop. It was as if he did not know exhaustion as he searched the cliff for traces of the Heaven Fragrant Flower.
Tian Chanzi did not have the heart to discourage him. This kind of aimless search was no different from looking for a needle in a haystack. Moreover, based on his experience, there should not be any Heaven Fragrant Flower unless there was a miracle.
Huhu ~
The mountain wind whistled, blowing the rope up. Tang Zheng swayed with the wind as he hurriedly grabbed onto a rock to stabilize himself.
The rope came to an end. He had already descended more than 300 meters. The bottom of the mountain was filled with a thin layer of fog. He could only see a few meters ahead.
The sun was setting in the west. He climbed back to the top of the mountain. He decided to bring a longer rope tomorrow. This was his only choice. He also knew that the hope was slim, but he could not give up. If he gave up, it would mean that his grandfather would die. He absolutely could not allow this to happen.
He returned to the hospital and just happened to run into Feng Yong.
"Boss, you didn't go to school today. You don't know that the school is in chaos. It's all about you."
Tang Zheng frowned. He stared at the wound on his forehead and asked: "What happened to you?"
"I accidentally bumped into it." Feng Yong said hesitantly.
"Nonsense, this is clearly not a bump. What happened?" Tang Zheng's face sank.
"… It was Takashi Takashi who hit me."
"Takashi Takashi, why did he hit you?"
Feng Yong's face turned red. He said with shame: "Boss, I am useless. Takashi Takashi said that you are a rapist in school. I argued with him and then we fought. I am not his opponent. I have lost face for you."
"Takashi Takashi!" Tang Zheng's eyes were about to spit fire, "Feng Yong, thank you."
"Boss, this is what I should do. I only hate that I am not his opponent. Otherwise I would have beaten him until his teeth fell out."
"This day will come. Don't worry." Tang Zheng's heart moved. After refining the Life Continuing Pill, he could organize a set of martial arts to teach Feng Yong.
Feng Yong heard this and his eyes lit up. He nodded and said: "Boss, right now there is a group of people in school who do not know right from wrong. They are all slandering you. They are saying that you have no face to face everyone so you are hiding and not going to class."
"Let them talk. There is no need to pay attention to these clowns." Tang Zheng said indifferently.
"Listening to these makes me angry. But wait a few days until your grandfather is better. When you go back, these rumors will be dispelled."
Tang Zheng did not take it to heart. He said a few more words to Feng Yong and then returned to the ward to accompany his grandfather.
The next day, he once again came to Ordinary Balance Mountain. This time he prepared a five hundred meter long rope. He was like Spiderman as he casually descended to yesterday's position. He did not stop and continued to descend. A moment later, he descended another hundred meters.
"Stop!" Suddenly, Tian Chanzi shouted.
Tang Zheng was shocked and hurriedly stopped. "What's wrong?"
"Is there a demonic aura?"
"Demonic aura. Could there be a demon?"
Tian Chanzi said in a deep voice: "In the myriad of worlds, there are not only humans. There are also demons and demons. The demons are humans who practice evil techniques. The demons are all living things that have gained intelligence and are able to use magic."
If it was before, Tang Zheng would definitely not believe that there were demons in this world. But now that he was a cultivator, he immediately accepted it and said: "I am only a first grade refining qi cultivator. Am I a demon's opponent?"
"I don't know. This demonic aura is not strong but it cannot be underestimated. If you go back the way you came, there is still time."
