The black gas represented the aura of a different kind, or a demon. If it was just a vengeful spirit, Li Xianyu would be one of the top 100 young experts in the Blood Kin World, even though he might have cheated.
Looking at the density of the black gas, it should be enough for ten cigarettes. The Kappa back then only had three cigarettes, which meant that the demon pestering his adoptive father was even more vicious than the Kappa. However, Li Xianyu was no longer the newbie he used to be. Compared to back then, his overall strength had skyrocketed by who knew how many times.
An inexplicable anger surged within him. No matter what the reason was, a monster had harmed his family. This was absolutely intolerable.
No wonder his adoptive father had multiple organ failure. It was a symptom of a severe lack of energy. He was very familiar with this situation. Great-grandmother had twice caused his kidney failure.
How could he run into a demon when he came to visit? Damn it.
"Mom, did anything happen to my dad these few days?" Li Xianyu thought for a moment. "Like something unlucky?"
When he was keeping watch at the funeral home, he fell and suffered from multiple organ failure … There was no need to guess. He probably ran into something evil. If his mother could not get anything out of him, Li Xianyu decided to go to the funeral home himself.
Daring to suck his adoptive father's spiritual essence, he was too daring.
"What's so inauspicious about it? Do you think your uncle would harm your father?" His adoptive mother clearly misunderstood that something had happened in the funeral parlor, and someone had just died in a relative's house.
"Then how did dad fall? Tell me the process. "Li Xianyu changed the topic.
His adoptive mother thought for a moment. "He fell while chasing after a weasel."
"Weasel … Why would he chase after a weasel?" Li Xianyu did not understand.
"The day before yesterday, your dad and I were in the field next to the funeral home. We saw a weasel and a snake fighting. The weasel was shiny. He said its skin could be used to make gloves and the snake meat was very nourishing, so he picked up a rock and smashed it. In the end, both the snake and the weasel ran away." His adoptive mother said, "Last night, he saw the weasel again and chased after it. He fell and became like this."
Places like funeral parlors were usually built in the mountains in the suburbs, far away from residential areas.
"You've been targeted by the yellow-skinned man," the middle-aged man in the bed next door said with a "whoa".
"Yellow Immortal?" Li Xianyu raised an eyebrow.
"This is all superstition. There is no such thing as a Yellow Immortal." His adoptive mother naturally did not believe him. Although the Yellow Immortal in the northeast was famous, people in the south did not buy it.
Li Xianyu couldn't help but look at her. His adoptive mother was actually a very superstitious person. She would go to Putuo to burn incense and pray to Buddha during the New Year and other festivals. Back then, a magician said that his sister had the appearance of a young phoenix, and they were very happy.
"You can't say that. When I was young, there was a family in the neighboring village. They killed a yellow-skinned man when they went up the mountain to collect firewood. They skinned him and ate his meat. A few days later, he fell to his death on the mountain. When the family found him, there were two yellow-skinned men gnawing on his body. Don't you think it's a coincidence? He ate them, and they ate him." The middle-aged man put on a serious face. "This is real.
The foster mother didn't say anything. Her expression was one of disbelief, but she couldn't be bothered to refute.
"From your accent, I can tell you're not local. Believe me, some things are just that strange." The middle-aged man with the broken leg said, "A few days ago, a strange thing happened at our construction site. A female body was dug up."
"A female body?" Li Xianyu asked, "What kind of strange thing is that? Did you call the police?"
"A female body is not strange, but the female body's body seemed to be scribbled with something, and there was a steel nail stuck in her forehead. When we found out, we didn't call the police. The foreman ordered someone to secretly burn it. Since then, there has been a lot of women crying in the middle of the night. Then, strange things happened one after another. My leg was crushed by a cement cart, and the steel cable suddenly fell. Luckily, it wasn't high, or else I would have lost my life. "
"You're just unlucky." The middle-aged woman rolled her eyes and scolded in an awkward tone, "Bullsh * t all day long. You haven't even seen the female body. Didn't you hear it from others? You believe everything others say. It's all a bunch of bullsh * t."
Li Xianyu didn't believe it either. If they really dug up a body, normal people would call the police first. Why would they burn it privately? It was stupid to ask for trouble.
However, he felt that the fact that his adoptive father was targeted by the yellow skin man was probably true.
You want my father's life just because the stone hit you?
Hiss!
This animal was too vengeful.
"Is there any way to ask the yellow god to let my father go?" Li Xianyu asked.
"According to our customs, you can ask the House Protecting Deity or find an expert." The middle-aged man said, "But you're not local, so there's no House Protecting Deity. Didn't you say that you have relatives here? You can go back and ask."
Seeing her son chatting with the middle-aged man, the adoptive mother didn't want to argue, so she said that she was going to buy dinner. Li Xianyu said that he would go, but the adoptive mother said that he didn't know what his sister liked to eat.
The adoptive mother went out.
Li Xianyu tilted his head and looked at his sister, who he hadn't seen for a year. The ice shard was still so beautiful. His relatives and friends always praised them for being smart and cute. Of course, he would also criticize his sister for being too cold.
She was not close to anyone. When she was young, she basically didn't go to visit her relatives. When relatives came to visit, she was also very stingy with her smile. She was different from San Wu, who was ignorant and cold. She was really cold.
It was unknown where she inherited her terrible personality. Li Xianyu's unrestrained nature was inherited from her adoptive father. She was neither like her mother nor her father. She was also like this in school, with the Water Retrograde Powder buff.
In the report card of her junior high school teacher, there was only one sentence: I don't need to elaborate on your excellence. I just hope that when you look at someone, you can look down a few centimeters.
The ice shard never looked people in the eye.
"Sister, you've lost weight." Li Xianyu sat on his mother's seat and picked a topic.
After not seeing her for a year, she had lost a lot of weight. Her face was sharper, and there was a healthy blush on her fair skin. Her phoenix eyes were still full of sharpness. Besides, the biggest change was that her heart was much more broad-minded. He noticed this when he saw the ice shard's bulging chest when he entered the door.
This scale was almost as big as Great-grandmother's. Very rare, very rare … The last time they met, what was her cup size?
"Sister, why did you come to the Northeast?"
"The season is just right."
Of course, winter was definitely not suitable for traveling to the North. Autumn was also cold, and spring was over.
"Oh, oh, where are you going next?"
“.....”
"Let's go together. I'm on vacation anyway."
“.....”
"Why don't you not travel next year and go home to work."
“.....”
"You should find a boyfriend at your age. It's not good to wander around."
"Shut up."
"Oh."
Li Xianyu instinctively shut up and obediently watched her play with her phone. He always felt that his sister's face was full of elegance and aura, but it was lacking something. Lacking the charm of a woman?
No, it was not that.
He thought about it and felt that if he drew a bright red cinnabar between her eyebrows, she would be an otherworldly fairy.
It was very strange. They had lived together for nineteen years, but she always felt a sense of distance. It was the distance between a mortal and a celestial being.
Even an extreme master like Great-grandmother did not give him such a feeling. It might have something to do with Great-grandmother's prodigal nature.
Not long after, his foster mother came back with takeaway. The dishes were plentiful and there was a lot of it. Just this generosity alone was enough to crush most of the restaurants in Shanghai that only saw the plates but not the dishes.
Li Xianyu ate a few mouthfuls and did not move his chopsticks much.
"No appetite?" His foster mother said, "I haven't bought drinks for you. Why are you wearing gloves? Take them off when you are eating."
"The food is not good. You guys eat it." Li Xianyu put down his chopsticks.
The food was actually not bad, but compared to the six-star meals in Bosch, it was really hard to swallow. It was easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal. After one's taste was cultivated, it was difficult to eat ordinary food.
Thinking of more than a month ago, he brought Great-grandmother to eat Shaxian rice noodles fried with gutter oil. Li Xianyu felt that he had become inflated again. It must be Slime's fault.
"You are guarding at night. How can you not eat?" His foster mother said, "You will have stomach problems."
Ice Shards frowned and looked at Li Xianyu with her beautiful eyes. "I will take you out to eat."
"Okay!" Li Xianyu suddenly laughed. He was thinking about how to pretend to be elegant in front of his sister. For example: Oh, if you go on like this, Mom and Dad will be very distressed. After all, our family is not too rich. But don't be afraid, you have a smart and capable brother.
Then, without saying a word, he transferred tens of thousands of US dollars to the ice shards, enjoying her astonished and shocked gaze.
Men were probably like this when they became rich. But in Li Xianyu's place, pretending to be cool with his girlfriend was not as exciting as pretending to be cool with Ice Shards' beautiful sister.
He originally wanted to say this before, but Ice Shards' "shut up" made Li Xianyu afraid and failed to show his divinity in front of others.
At this moment, Li Xianyu saw that Ice Dregs had left with his portion of rice.
"Sister, what are you doing with it?" Li Xianyu was confused.
Ice Dregs handed him the rice expressionlessly.
Li Xianyu: "???"
Suddenly coming to his senses, Li Xianyu took the meal and said aggrievedly, "Go out to eat, is that what you mean?"
He pushed the door with a cheeky smile: "I'll eat, I'll go in to eat."
Ice Shards blocked the door. "Come in after eating." After a pause, her pretty face suddenly darkened, and she said coldly: "Change your WeChat name."
Compared to shutting him out, this sentence obviously made Li Xianyu more flustered, and his whole face became listless.
Because his sister hardly used WeChat, when he came up with a WeChat name, he played a little smart. Nickname: Love What You Do.
Ice Shards' real name was Li Yihan, and her nickname was Han Han.
Li Xianyu: "…"
Was it exposed when he transferred the money?
Ice Shards was as petty as ever, taking revenge on him at every opportunity. She actually didn't see it at all before. What a deep scheme.
Outsiders couldn't see her emotions from her unchanged face and eyes, but Li Xianyu could. After all, they ate, drank, and slept together for 19 years. If he could see it before, Li Xianyu would have been vigilant.
In the hospital in the small county, there were no seats in the corridor, and there were scattered beds. Some patients slept in the corridor.
Li Xianyu leaned against the wall and ate quietly. He was afraid of his sister since he was a child. He could be naughty in front of his adoptive father, and he was not afraid of being cut off. But in front of his sister, he never dared to be naughty.
In addition to the cold buff that she had, it was mainly because he lived under his sister's tutelage since he was a child. His adoptive father was a second-rate hooligan, a junior high school graduate, and his education level was not high. His adoptive mother graduated from high school, and she was just a little better than his adoptive father.
Therefore, his son's academic performance was basically controlled by his sister, which provided a good opportunity for Ice Shards to train.
Back then, out of curiosity, Li Xianyu sneaked into his sister's room and touched her bra and fat breasts, and was caught on the spot.
Ice Shards didn't announce it, and she didn't complain. She locked Li Xianyu in the closet for a whole night. She was very stubborn, and she didn't sleep. Instead, she sat on the edge of the bed and guarded it with a mop. If he dared to come out, she would hit him with a stick.
Li Xianyu and his sister's intimate things spent a night together, and for many years, he was traumatized by the closet.
The family stayed in the ward until 10 pm. Ice Shards and his mother returned to the hotel. His mother stayed in the hospital last night, and she took a nap during the day. Tonight, it was Li Xianyu's turn.
As for Ice Shards … Li Xianyu suspected that was the real reason why she called him.
After 12 pm, when no one was looking, he injected 5 milliliters of blood into his adoptive father. When he woke up the next day, his body would be healed.
He leaned on the edge of the bed and closed his eyes. Not long after, he heard the window of the ward open.
