The time he used to search for Moying was merely a short two days but he no longer had the motivation to continue on.
He had never known that it was so difficult to find a person.
At the same time, Ji Shaozhang had just taken a bottle of water and was about to drink when he was knocked over by a young man.
"Aiyo, why are these young people so impatient, my old bones are about to fall apart!" Ji Shaozhang grumbled and didn't even have the chance to look at the young man in front of him.
"Old man, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I didn't do it on purpose. Earlier I was too anxious when I was walking so I didn't notice you."
Just as Huang Yishui helped Ji Shaozhang up and apologised guiltily in front of him, he was stunned on the spot.
"Lord … Lord."
At this moment, Ji Shaozhang also noticed Huang Yishui in front of him. He grabbed Huang Yishui's collar as though he was afraid that he would run away, "So it's you, we haven't met for more than ten years and I almost couldn't recognise you."
At this moment, Huang Yishui had a feeling of wanting to cry but no tears came out. Why did he bump into Old Master Mo here?
"Ah haha, that's right, Lord, I haven't seen you for more than ten years and you're still as energetic as ever. You're really getting younger and younger."
Huang Yishui's face piled up a fawning smile.
"Hmph, you're here to flatter me again. Don't talk nonsense, where's my little disciple? Quickly bring me to look for her. "
Ji Shaozhang was determined to follow Huang Yishui. Anyway he guessed that Huang Yishui would definitely know where Moying was.
Huang Yishui's face revealed a look of difficulty, "Lord, you've really misunderstood. Ever since we left the organisation, we don't know where Young Master went. Young Master had disbanded our entire organisation."
"Don't talk nonsense here. Do you think you can deceive me?" Ji Shaozhang said with a look of unwillingness to give up.
"Lord, everything I said is the truth and I absolutely don't dare to lie to you."
Huang Yishui pretended to be calm. He couldn't let Ji Shaozhang know that Gu Wan was sick.
Otherwise, if something were to happen to Ji Shaozhang, they would not be able to bear the responsibility.
But how could Ji Shaozhang be so gullible? He could tell from Huang Yishui's eyes that she was lying.
Moreover, he had already heard from the island that Gu Wan had been asking Huang Yishui and the others to do some missions recently, and their activities were quite frequent.
Ji Shaozhang let go of Huang Yishui's collar as he spoke with a smile which didn't look like a smile, "You really don't know where Moying is?"
Huang Yishui didn't know why, but when he felt Ji Shaozhang's questioning tone, he felt as though he was enveloped by Ji Shaozhang's oppressive aura.
He felt a little breathless. He clearly wanted to lie, but he couldn't say a single word.
"Lord …. I ….." Huang Yishui put on a hesitant look, not knowing if he should say it or not.
Following that, Ji Shaozhang noticed the heat preservation box in Huang Yishui's hand.
"Where do you want to bring this heat preservation box to? Could it be that my little disciple is sick and hospitalized, so you should go to the hospital to take a look at her. "
Huang Yishui, "….." Are you a prophet, to actually see through it with one sentence, this goes against common sense.
Seeing Huang Yishui not speaking for a long time, Ji Shaozhang's hand once again held onto Huang Yishui's collar as he urged, "Quickly tell me what's going on? Is it ….
Is my little disciple really sick? "
Huang Yishui clenched his teeth. Looked like this matter couldn't be hidden anymore. If he wanted to blame someone, he could only blame himself for not checking the almanac when he went out today. He actually bumped into this old master.
"Lord, to tell you the truth, our Young Master she ….." Huang Yishui raised his head and took a look at Old Master, not knowing how to start.
"What happened to her? Tell me quickly, do you want this old man to die of anxiety? "Ji Shaozhang's face was full of anxiety.
"Young Master has a very serious illness, and she is still receiving treatment in the hospital." Huang Yishui still held back.
"Finish what you want to say." But no matter what, it still couldn't escape Ji Shaozhang's eyes.
"I knew I couldn't hide it from you, Lord. Our Young Master is in the late stage of stomach cancer, the doctor said … she won't live for more than two months."
Once again, he finished saying these words with a heavy heart. Huang Yishui felt that he was already exhausted from saying these words.
"What did you say?" At this moment, Ji Shaozhang's reaction was much more serious than Bai Di and Ye Ye's reaction at that time.
"Aiya, Lord, I can't explain it clearly to you, come with me."
Then, Ji Shaozhang followed Huang Yishui to the hospital.
Huang Yishui stood at the door of the ward and pointed to Gu Wan who was lying on the hospital bed, "Young Master is lying here."
Suddenly, Ji Shaozhang didn't have the courage to push open the door in front of him.
His hands started to tremble. From the moment he heard this news till now, Ji Shaozhang had not been in the state of mind, feeling that all these were just too unacceptable.
"Lord, do you want to go in and take a look?" Huang Yishui opened his mouth and asked.
Ji Shaozhang raised his hand to open the door countless times, but put it down again.
"I … I don't know if Moying still recognises me." Ji Shaozhang's tone was a little choked. Through the window of the ward door, he could see clearly Gu Wan who was lying on the hospital bed on her last breath.
He really didn't dare to believe that that person was actually her little disciple.
In his impression, Moying was still like a playful child, following behind his butt all day long, doing some mischievous things.
"Master, Master, Senior Brother bullied me again today, but I didn't suffer any losses. When he was in the toilet, I secretly took his toilet paper."
"Master, Master, why don't we go out to the sea to fish today? I heard that there's a storm on the sea today, I really want to see it. "
"Master, Master, why did you make me wear this kind of boy's clothes? I want to wear a girl's dress and become a little fairy. "
"Master, I might have to leave this island."
"Master, I'm sorry, if there's a next life, Moying is still willing to be your most obedient disciple. This time, please allow your disciple to rebel for once. I have many things that I need to leave this place to complete ….."
"And, I … found my biological parents."
The past scenes, as though it had just happened yesterday surfaced in Ji Shaozhang's mind and momentarily, his eyes turned bright red.
Finally, Ji Shaozhang still raised his hand and pushed open the ward's door as he took heavy steps, step by step, towards Gu Wan's sickbed.
Sister Zhang and steward who were by the side also saw an old man and their expressions were very sad.
She stood in front of Gu Wan's bed sadly. They didn't ask her who she was.
But looking at his performance. He should be Gu Wan's relative. After all, there were many Gu Wan's relatives and friends who suddenly appeared these past two days.
They had never seen him before.
"Moying, Master hasn't seen you for a few years, why did you turn yourself into this state?"
Ji Shaozhang's face was filled with sorrow as he looked down at Gu Wan who was lying on the sickbed on her last breath. That mischievous little kid had now grown into a slender and elegant young lady.
Even though he was the one who founded the assassin organisation and his hands were stained with blood, Ji Shaozhang's face was filled with warmth and sorrow.
The current him had nothing to do with the organisation, no relation with the assassins, and even nothing to do with Ji Shaozhang.
He was just an ordinary old man, an ordinary person who would feel upset when he saw his little disciple lying sick on the bed with her eyes closed.
"Master —"
At this moment, Gu Wan's weak voice was heard from the sickbed. Ji Shaozhang's hat instantly widened as he looked at Gu Wan who was lying on the sickbed.
"Moying ….." Ji Shaozhang called out Gu Wan's name.
Because that year when Gu Wan was in the organisation, she was called by this name.
"You … why are you here?" Gu Wan's eyes were filled with tears.
Earlier when she was asleep, she seemed to have heard a voice which she hadn't heard for many years.
Following that, Ji Shaozhang's figure appeared in her dream.
The moment Gu Wan opened her eyes and saw Ji Shaozhang, she thought that she was hallucinating.
Perhaps when a person was about to die, they would see the person they wanted to see the most in their entire life.
"Silly disciple, of course Master is here to see you. I must say, you are really heartless. You abandoned Master for so many years and didn't even bother to pay attention to him." Ji Shaozhang tried his best to hold back the tears in his eyes.
It was obviously words of reproach but it only sounded sorrowful.
Gu Wan's lips curled into a forced smile. That exquisite little face had no trace of blood at all.
"Master, I'm sorry. Thank you for coming to see me. I thought you would never acknowledge me in this lifetime."
When she said these words, Gu Wan's eyes were filled with guilt.
Back then when she found her biological parents, she was originally filled with joy but in the end, she suffered from painful torment time after time.
At this moment, she had already lost her lifetime's worth of martial arts and in just one night, she had turned into an ordinary person, a woman who didn't even have the strength to truss a chicken.
She herself didn't know what she had experienced?
"Silly lass, what nonsense are you sprouting? A Master for a day, a father for life. Did you think that after you ran away from the organisation, the relationship between us as Master and disciple would no longer exist? "
Ji Shaozhang said this in front of Gu Wan in a fit of pique but he didn't seem to blame Gu Wan at all.
At the same time, Ji Shaozhang's gaze stopped on a young girl beside Gu Wan.
At first glance, Ji Shaozhang felt that she was especially amiable, especially since the space between her brows was extremely similar to the young Moying.
"This is … your child?"
Ji Shaozhang asked agitatedly. When he stretched out his hand to pull Little Fish, Little Fish took a small step back in vigilance.
