Chapter 367 A Great Wish
Liu Xinyou thinks she has been dead when she opens her eyes in a daze.
If she is not dead, how can she see a magnificent palace and someone looking like a fairy in the shrine? At first glance, the fairy looks fairly similar to the portrait of “Mortal Heart Fairy” painted by Liu Xinyou and worshiped by her mother.
So maybe it is true that the god you worship when you are alive will pick you up after your death?
However, she is not a believer in Mortal Heart Fairy.
In a trance, Liu Xinyou hears a man and a woman talking about how to save her. She smiles bitterly. Acute leukemia has haunted her for half a year. The last picture in her memory is many people in white rushing in her ward and saying that she was infected and needed to take the treatment soon.
Liu Xinyou’s memory is a mess and she faints again.
“Grandmaster, she is much better now.”
“Well, let’s continue... Liu Guiying must be very worried these days.”
Liu Xinyou hears conversations like this from time to time. The high fever makes her almost unable to think. She occasionally thinks she definitely doesn’t want to die if she can survive.
Yes, no one wants to die young.
Her paintings have not been recognized in the industry yet.
She hasn’t had a romantic relationship yet.
The most important thing is that she hasn’t become the person her mother wants her to be. Her mother has sacrificed a lot to raise her and doesn’t even want to remarry. She also hasn’t fulfilled her father’s last wish... She can’t bear to leave Liu Guiying who is sometimes rude with a loud voice and hard working in the street office.
Lin Luoran breathes a sigh of relief. No matter how powerful the elixir is, it’s useless if the patient herself doesn’t have her stubborn will of survival.
Compared with the past, medicine today works much better. Liu Xinyou has excreted some dark substances, namely necrotic cells. Lin Luoran casts a Cleaning Spell to clean up comatose Liu Xinyou and asks Yuan Ye to feed her some white rice porridge made with space rice.
“Grandmaster, we should be able to send her out in two days in this case, right?”
It feels great to save a dying person from death with his own hands. Yuan Ye now finally decides to dedicate himself to the Tao of Bolus and pursues his own dream.
Lin Luoran nods, “Did you write down all the recipes we’ve tried?”
Yuan Ye takes out a stack of paper, “I have recorded all the valuable experience in every step.”
Lin Luoran finally smiles with satisfaction.
She can see everything happening on the shore of the Dongting Lake through the Sea-view Pavilion. Liu Guiying now lives in a luxury villa but she always looks at Mount Jun and worries about losing her daughter every day. Her expression makes Lin Luoran think several times that it’s much easier if she just cleanses Liu Xinyou’s bone marrow. However, Yuan Ye and she stick to using traditional medicine for benefiting more people in the future.
Eventually, God lives up to people with ambitions. Now it seems that her choice is very correct.
...
“Ms. Liu, you don’t have to worry about it. They have said that your daughter will be out tonight so it must be tonight.”
The moon is in the middle of the sky and Mount Jun is very quiet. Three people are waiting in front of Liu Yi Well. They have been here for more than ten days. Liu Guiying can’t sleep every night. Wei Xue can still bear it but Ma Ming’s girlfriend, Tong Ya, who doesn’t even know what happened, has already been very impatient. Fatty once stealthily asked them if they are staying here to do something big, as either Lin Luodong or Huang Weijian always takes some time to accompany Liu Guiying every day. Fatty asked this question because they have been too secretive.
They don’t want to tell him the truth because Lin Luodong is not sure whether he can take Wei Xue to the palace or not. Besides, Ma Ming is a blabbermouth. They are just here waiting for the opportunity of a one-day sightseeing tour around the Dragon Palace.
At three o’clock in the morning, it is a little cold at night. Liu Guiying is very devout and insists on kneeling in front of Liu Yi Well to show her sincerity to “Mortal Heart Fairy”, ignoring the dissuasion from Lin Luodong and Huang Weijian.
Dews drizzle on the old lady’s clothes but she is completely unconscious.
She has made a great wish. The whole Liu family will worship the fairy generation after generation to reciprocate the fairy’s favor if her daughter Liu Xinyou can come back to life.
Warm light bursts from the wellhead. Liu Guiying looks up and sees Yuan Ye holding Liu Xin outside the well.
With a fast metabolism in these ten days, all Liu Xinyou’s lost hair because of chemotherapy is now an inch long. She is still wearing a hospital gown but Liu Guiying notices Liu Xinyou’s complexion is totally different at a glance.
Her cheeks are rosy, and her sunken eyes and pointed chin both look much better. The skin on her neck is still pale under the moonlight but the blue throbbing veins are all gone.
Is she... cured?
“She won’t wake up until tomorrow morning. Ms. Liu, you can take a rest in the villa for another night.” Yuan Ye doesn’t know if it is mother love as an orphan. Anyway, he can’t understand how can Liu Guiying who is so skinny these days can pick up Liu Xinyou now. It is different from how he thinks Liu Guiying’s strength is.
Liu Guiying is ecstatic at this moment. She kowtows to Liu Yi Well and follows them back to the villa obediently.
Yuan Ye can see that this old lady is listless these days. She probably hasn’t slept well for a long time. He sighs and quietly sprinkles some medicinal powder which is enough to make these two people sleep well.
“Grandmaster said the two of you have done a good job this time. You can both bring a date to the Dragon Palace journey.” Yuan Ye winks at them.
Bring a date?!
Huang Weijian is up to no good, “That is to say... you can take Wei Xue together? Well, it’s ‘bring a date’. Haha. ”
Lin Luodong blushes but the retort comes to his mind immediately, “If we both can bring one person, then your date will be Ma Ming, won’t you?”
Now the gay thing is really popular and the world of personal ability also can’t escape from it. Huang Weijian’s face immediately darkens when he hears what Lin Luodong says.
Yuan Ye turns his face away and laughs so hard that he almost has an internal injury.
“When do we go?”
The two wrestle together and then ask this serious question. Yuan Ye just shakes his head, “Just wait and see.”
They are helpless and sneak back to Huang Weijian’s small building.
At nine o’clock the next day, the sun shines on the bed through the half-open curtain. Liu Guiying just wakes up now. She hasn’t been so comfortable for half a year and still can’t get used to waking up in such a big luxurious bed.
Gee, didn’t she stay by her daughter’s side and sleep on the sofa last night? Why does she wake up in the big bed?
Liu Guiying immediately refreshes and sits up.
The house is so big. She searches all over and finally finds a noise in the kitchen on the first floor. Liu Guiying sees a familiar back wearing a hospital gown. Her daughter is putting two eggs on the frying pan unskillfully. Liu Guiying’s cheeks are bathed in tears.
“Youyou...”
Liu Xinyou turns her head, “Mom, why are you crying again?”
Haven’t they cried enough in this half a year? She thinks she is all right, but now this sister Liu messes with her again! Liu Xinyou thinks it and her tears also can’t stop. They cry miserably in each other’s arms as if they want to take out all the tribulations and confusion in the past six months.
No one remembers the fried eggs on the pan. It is a sunny day outside the window and Liu Guiying feels full of energy whether to eat breakfast or not.
The mother and daughter take some time to compose themselves. Then they find there is only an envelope on the table with some Huaxia currency and a note in it. The main idea of the note is that Liu Xinyou’s illness has just recovered and they can stay in this villa temporarily. They left home in a hurry so the Huaxia currency is for their fare.
The note is not signed. Liu Guiying thinks it must be from the men on the sword who took them here and brought Liu Xinyou down the well for treatment.
Liu Guiying has regarded Lin Luodong, Huang Weijian, and Yuan Ye as immortal messengers of “Mortal Heart Fairy” in the mortal world. In retrospect of the days which she spent together with them, they were all so gentle and not arrogant at all. Liu Guiying can’t help her admiration.
Liu Guiying has worked in the street office for many years, and she has seen many people. Some upstarts always leave ordinary staff in a difficult spot. However, the real noble as these immortal messengers is not cocky even when helping others.
It’s so good to be alive.
Liu Xinyou changes into a new dress. She goes to Mount Jun Island in a sober state for the first time accompanied by Liu Guiying. Liu Xinyou just recovers from the sickness and looks very skinny as if the wind can blow her down. Seeing how weak she is, all pilgrims make way for her.
With the help of Liu Guiying, she kowtows for three times in front of Liu Yi Well and lights an incense stick with her bare hands.
“I, believer Liu Xinyou, am so grateful to fairy for saving my life and also my mother’s life... Following my mother, the whole Liu family will be believers of Mortal Heart Fairy from now on for generations. I, believer Liu Xinyou, am willing to preach the fairy’s miracle all my life. If I break my promise, I can never be reincarnated. ”
This is not only an oath but also a great lifelong wish.
Liu Xinyou’s voice is neither too high nor too low and she speaks very solemnly. Some pilgrims next to her hear what she said and they are all surprised that this young girl sounds like she is going to be a Buddhist nun.
Liu Guiying tells them everything, but they feel doubtful.
Doesn’t it sound like a tale that miracle appeared and rescued the young girl on her deathbed just because her mother had worshiped the Mortal Heart Fairy?
Seeing how doubtful they are, Liu Guiying is anxious and wants to explain. Liu Xinyou has made her great wish and stood up, “Mom, let’s go.”
They don’t explain too much and just leave as nothing happens. It makes these doubtful pilgrims convinced instead. Many of them have witnessed the spiritual rain and seen the immortal face that year. They believe in the existence of Mortal Heart Fairy, however, they are doubtful that an ordinary woman can touch the fairy and can be so lucky just because of her piety.
The girl is thin but she is energetic who is not like suffering from leukemia. But pilgrims would rather believe such kind of things. Some of them hurry to catch up with the two people. What did the elder sister just say? Her daughter is a student of the Academy of Fine Arts who has seen the fairy’s face. The important thing is to ask her to paint a portrait to worship at home!
This news goes viral among pilgrims. Lin Luoran’s believers gradually develop in this way. Liu Xinyou keeps her promise and takes action right away. Before leaving Mount Jun, she has begun to perform her religious activities.
Lin Luoran suddenly opens her eyes in the Dragon Palace.
She finds that there are more white light spots in her ocean of consciousness.
One of the newly added light spots is not as bright as Liu Guiying’s faith light group. However, the start-up light spot is firmly connected to Fly Apsaras painted sculpture.
There is some splendid light from the connecting threads. Lin Luoran just checks it and finds the person connected by threads has made a great wish that she will never abandon her lifelong preaching.
Is this the prototype of an oracle in the legend?
