Chapter 3017 Shen Tianyu 417
Master Mao burst into laughter, "As expected, I, Old Mao, was right about you!"
He declared loudly, "Don't worry, it will be as you wish!"
The two walked slowly into the Taoist temple within the barrier, one after the other.
Shen Tianyu then followed.
At midnight that night, when the moon was at its fullest, Gu Chufan lay quietly in the courtyard of the Taoist temple, the soft blankets like a mother's embrace, gently holding him.
The necessary ritual implements have been prepared.
Having bathed and changed his clothes in advance, Master Mao Jun began to perform rituals with a white whisk in hand.
This kind of top-secret Taoist technique has always been kept secret, but because Gu Chufan's matter needed to be kept confidential, Master Mao did not find an assistant, and Shen Tianyu was on the side to provide support.
The eighty- or ninety-year-old Master Mao was dressed in a magnificent purple Taoist robe, holding a whisk in his hand. He moved with agile and powerful steps, exuding a powerful aura, and chanted incantations...
Gu Chufan closed his eyes and gradually drifted into a dream.
Let's go back to the day he had the car accident.
A sudden car accident.
Immense pain.
The soul is gone.
Broken remains.
Bright red blood.
Whether it was a dream or an illusion, he walked unsteadily on an ancient bridge, his whole being in a daze, as if he had lost his mind.
The water beneath the bridge was deep black, emanating a chilling aura.
Even before entering the water, I could feel the cold.
He wondered, why is the water so cold?
What is this place?
He had never been here before.
Suddenly, he heard someone calling his name in high and low tones, "Gu Chufan, Gu Chufan, Chufan, Fanfan, Fanfan, the young master of the Gu family..."
He turned his head and saw an old Taoist priest standing in the distance with his hair in a Tai Chi topknot and holding a whisk. The old man smiled at him and said, "Young Gu, don't be naughty. Come home with me."
He felt that the old Taoist priest was mysterious and somewhat familiar.
Hearing the old Taoist priest say again, "If you don't leave now, your soul will never be repaired. If you really become mentally impaired, how heartbroken will your parents and brother be?"
In a daze, Gu Chufan wondered, who are my parents?
Who is Brother?
Hearing the old Taoist priest say again, "And your junior sister, Shi Shi, your grandparents, maternal grandparents, great-grandparents, great-great-grandparents..."
The old Taoist priest rambled on and on about a bunch of people.
Suddenly, a pair of eyes, filled with suppressed tears, appeared in Gu Chufan's hazy mind...
A sudden, sharp pain in my head...
The pain was like the sky falling and the earth splitting open.
When I thought about it again, it was already four days later.
Slowly opening his eyes, Gu Chufan saw a pair of eyes filled with suppressed tears, and a slender and beautiful face.
Visibility gradually improved.
He looked at the person in front of the bed and said, "Shi Shi? You are Shi Shi?"
Shi Shi's face lit up with surprise, and tears welled up in her eyes, which had been holding back their tears. "Senior, you're awake? You're really awake?"
Gu Chufan looked around and found him lying in his bedroom.
He wondered, "How long have I been asleep?"
Looking again at the needle sticking out of the back of his hand, he was puzzled. "Why are they giving me an IV? I haven't been asleep for long, have I?"
Shi Shi hurriedly replied, "You were unconscious for four nights and four days, unable to eat, and could only maintain basic nutrition through intravenous nutrition."
Gu Chufan found it increasingly strange. "Did it really last that long? I just had a very strange dream that lasted for four days and four nights?"
Shi Shi nodded vigorously, "It was four days and four nights."
Fearing he wouldn't believe her, she picked up her phone and handed it to him, "You went up the mountain with Young Master Shen four days ago. Now look at today's date."
Gu Chufan then believed it.
He rubbed his throbbing forehead. "I remember you..."
His mind was a mess. One moment he was thinking about Shi Shi getting married, the next he was giving Shi Shi a wedding gift and being scolded by her fiancé, then she was bringing him fish and peeling the bones for him, then she was saying goodbye to him at the airport, and then he was going to the Thai-Cambodian border with his father and Shen Tianyu...
He raised his hands to cover his head.
There's Bai Chenxue, there's Guo Xu, and there's the promise he made to Guo Xu...
He suddenly sat up.
In a daze, it seemed as if countless things had happened in this world.
The cell phone suddenly rang loudly.
It's his cell phone.
Shi Shi helped him pick it up and pressed the answer button.
It was Jing Hong calling.
Shi Shi put the phone to Gu Chufan's ear.
Jing Hong's cheerful voice came through the phone, "Xuexue and I are getting engaged. We'll be getting our marriage certificate and married soon. Congratulations to us!"
Gu Chufan's eyes were unfocused as he looked at Shi Shi.
Shi Shi said, "Yes, Jing Hong proposed to Miss Bai, and Jin Zhi was a witness."
Gu Chufan's head throbbed with pain. He vaguely remembered something like this happening before, but he wasn't sure. It felt like a dream, an experience, or even a story...
Shi Shi said to him, "You should say congratulations. I heard from Jinzhi that the Jing family treats Miss Bai very well and cherishes her."
With his inherent elegance, Gu Chufan said to the person on the other end of the phone, "Congratulations!"
Jing Hong laughed, "Xuexue and I will get married before you two. You and Miss Shi will come to our wedding banquet then."
Gu Chufan felt like his brain wasn't working properly.
He just took a nap and had a strange dream. It was as if the world had been sped up by a motor.
He instinctively said, "Okay."
A beat later, he asked again, "Guoxu, he..."
Jing Hong slowly said, "There are only two possible outcomes for people: birth and death. Birth is a cause for joy, and death is not necessarily a cause for sorrow. As long as one's soul is not scattered and one has accumulated merit in one's previous life, one will find a better place to go."
"A better place to go?"
Jing Hong feigned mystery, "Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed. Guoxu has let go, and he will have a happy next life. Xuexue and I are happy now, and you should be happy too. Don't let down the person in front of you."
Gu Chufan looked at Shi Shi standing by the bed.
Her face was thin, and her skin was almost touching her bones.
She must not have rested well these past few days; she has dark circles under her eyes and her lips are dry and chapped.
Even though he was unconscious for four days, his lips remained moist and showed no signs of dryness.
He knew that she was the one taking care of him.
She took good care of him, but she had no time to take care of herself.
Jing Hong's voice came through the phone again, "You should get married soon too. Only when you're married and happy can I be completely at ease."
Before Gu Chufan could react, Jing Hong hung up the phone.
Gu Chufan chuckled to himself; this guy was quite domineering.
Shi Shi took the phone from him, placed it on the bedside table, and asked, "What do you want to eat?"
Gu Chufan looked at her pale and thin face, "What do you want to eat?"
Shi Shi shook her head, "I have no appetite, I'm fine with anything. What do you want to eat? I'll have someone get it for you. You haven't eaten for days, your stomach must be rumbling."
Gu Chufan said, "I want to eat what you want to eat."
Familiar memories came flooding back like a tidal wave.
Shi Shi clearly remembers that he used to say things like that all the time.
Whenever he treated them to a meal, he would always ask her, "What would you like to eat?"
She would ask him the same question.
He often joked that he wanted to eat what she wanted to eat.
Four years later, hearing it again feels like it was just yesterday.
But four years had already passed.
She stood up, turned, and walked out, saying as she went, "I'll have them prepare some congee first. You've been hungry for four days, so you can't eat meat or fish. Have some congee first. Would you like savory or sweet congee?"
Gu Chufan said, "Bird's nest porridge, please."
"it is good."
Having been on edge for four days and four nights, unable to eat or sleep properly, Shi Shi felt dizzy as she walked to the door.
Suddenly everything went black, and her body slid down the door.
He quickly pulled out the needle and jumped off the bed, hopping on one foot toward her.
He came to her, helped her up, and held her in his arms.
She is too thin.
His body was made up of bare, bony bones.
She's so thin it's heartbreaking.
