Simon looked at the child's cute appearance intently and touched the child's face from time to time. But gradually Simon's smile disappeared because he felt that the child's breathing was very unstable.
At first Simon thought it was his own misinterpretation, but when he felt it carefully, his expression suddenly turned pale. He felt that the child's breathing was gradually becoming shorter and the heartbeat was gradually weakening. He was completely panicked.
What should I do, he kept repeating in his mind. Could it be that his son, who was born in his late 40s, would die like this? When he saw his wife's sleeping face with a smile, he couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart. No! There must be a way.
.
Who can save my son, who? Who! City Lord? Uncle Long? Paladin Commander? Paladin Commander! Yes! Only the Paladin Commander can do it now.
Ignoring his sleeping wife, Simon rushed out of the door with his newborn son in his arms, and ran quickly towards the city lord's manor. This was the fastest speed in his life. When he arrived at the manor, he was already exhausted, and he was only supported by a trace of faith.
With.
"Brother, Brother Jie, Uncle Long, please save my child." Simon struggled to open the door of the hall, knelt on the ground, and shouted inside. In desperation, he called out his childhood name. When he was a child, Jones was called the oldest
The eldest brother, City Lord Jie Xiao Jones, is the second child at the age of two, and Simon is the youngest. When he was a child, he had no concept of identity, and the three children got into trouble everywhere in the East City. It was not until they gradually became wiser and Simon knew that he had no talent for cultivation that he
Gradually, they began to respect the two former eldest brothers. But in their hearts, Ximen will always be their younger brother, no matter what his status is.
Just after Simon left, the city lord's wife Angela gave birth to a lovely little girl. Although the process was a bit difficult, everyone was happy and the mother and daughter were safe. The city lord was still worried and asked Jones to use blessing and healing spells.
Of course, these are all redundant, but in order to calm the nervous heart of the city lord, Jones still released some small blessing spells.
Just when the manor was immersed in joy, Simon rushed in with his child in his arms. The other servants did not dare to stop Simon, because everyone knew Simon's status in the heart of the city lord.
Mr. Long, the city lord and Jones were sitting in the living room. The child was beside the mother and was not taken out. Everyone was having a heated discussion about the name of the child. When Simon rushed into the hall, everyone was shocked. Everyone saw
Simon was holding a child, kneeling on the ground, looking like he might faint at any time. The city lord and Jones hurried over to help Simon up, but with the child in their hands, Simon was helped to sit on the sofa. At this time, Simon's spirit was slightly relaxed.
After a while, he fainted. Jones hurriedly checked Simon's condition, and finally determined that it was just excessive mental stress and physical exhaustion. Then he felt relieved, released a few blessings, and laid Simon on the sofa to let him rest.
After everyone made a fuss, they remembered what Simon had shouted when he entered the room, and then they looked at the child that Simon had brought in.
"Lacus actually gave birth today. Don't tell me, she looks like Lacus." The city lord said after observing the child for a while.
"But what happened to the child? Simon fainted without saying anything." Jones observed and then continued.
"Don't talk, be quiet!" Just when everyone didn't know what to do, Mr. Long suddenly said.
Everyone looked at the old man quietly.
"Have you noticed that the child's breathing and heartbeat are gradually weakening? Although the changes are very small, you can still feel it if you feel carefully." Mr. Long said after listening quietly for a while.
This is what Jones and the city lord also felt carefully. They both discovered what the old man said, and their expressions became serious. If this continues, the child will die of heart failure in half a day.
Jones stepped forward to examine the child carefully, but found nothing. Except for the child's heart, everything was normal. Everyone was at a loss.
"How is my child?" Simon also woke up at this time and went to ask his child immediately.
"Simon, I'm the eldest brother. We will find a way. You should take a rest first." Jones leaned over and said.
"Brother, what happened to the child? Lux and I can't lose him." Simon cried.
"To be honest, we don't have a good solution now. Please tell us what you know about the situation first. See if it helps." The city lord also walked over and said.
Simon explained the whole process again, but of course there was no progress at all. A newborn baby had no disease and its heartbeat was inexplicably weakened. Many of these things were unheard of. The hall fell into silence.
"Jones, is there a trick among Paladins called purification?" Mr. Long said suddenly. Everyone looked at Jones, especially Simon, with hope in their eyes.
"Yes, that's a basic skill. Basically everyone in the Saint's Palace knows it, but it's for removing curses. It doesn't seem to have anything to do with it. It doesn't look like you've been cursed."
"Of course I know it's not a curse." Everyone was discouraged after hearing this.
"But, can you feel the soul of the subject by using purification?" Mr. Long continued. Everyone looked at Jones again.
"This is possible..." Jones fell into thinking
"Does the old man think there is something wrong with his soul?" Jones asked after a brief thought.
"Yes, from a physical point of view, there is no problem now. It's not like I was cursed. All I have left is my soul." Mr. Long explained.
"I'll give it a try." As he spoke, Jones didn't even recite any spells. He raised his hand and a white light fell on the child and continued to shine on the child. Jones also maintained the same posture.
Everyone observed Jones's expression carefully, as if they wanted to see something from his expression.
After more than ten seconds, the white light disappeared, but Jones did not move, still maintaining the posture when performing the surgery.
After another ten seconds, Jones slowly opened his eyes, but his frown deepened.
"How is it?" everyone asked in unison.
"There is indeed something wrong with my soul, but I don't have a solution."
"You should tell me what the problem is, you're making me anxious." Simon finally found hope at the end, but Jones never said anything. At this time, Simon had reached the critical point. If Jones hadn't spoken, he would have
My heart has died.
"Here's the problem." Everyone fell silent and listened attentively to Jones' next words.
"This child now has two souls. The first one is the child's own soul. Through perception, you can clearly feel that this soul is in harmony with the body. The second soul is very strange. Its energy is not the same as the first one.
Similar, it should be said that it is slightly smaller than the first one, and this soul has many similarities with the first one, but this soul has no consciousness and can be said to be a simple ability body. Now the two souls in this child's body
The two souls are merging, but the child's body is not strong enough to bear it. Every time the fusion occurs, the heartbeat decreases. I have calculated that in another 3 hours, the child's heartbeat will stop completely without the souls fully merging. But.
What I don’t understand is why there are two such similar souls in the same body?”
Simon suddenly said: "I know, I know. At the beginning, Lux's belly was very big, much larger than that of ordinary mothers. I asked the doctor, and the doctor said that Lax's belly was twins. More than a month ago,
Don’t even think about touching Lacus. There was a lot of blood. I thought it would be a miscarriage, but then the doctor said it was fine. It’s just that Lacus’s belly became a little bit smaller... I guess that’s the reason.”
"Oh, it should be so. At that time, a child accidentally died, but now this child has absorbed the nutrients of that child, even including the unformed soul, but the soul fusion is very slow, and there is sufficient nutritional support in the mother's body
, it stopped working after birth, that’s why it’s in its current situation.” Jones explained after listening to Simon’s guess.
After Jones's explanation, everyone understood the current situation and was still at a loss. If the child were older and more developed, this situation would be much better than it is now. It could happen to a newborn baby.
The hall fell into silence again, and Simon was almost desperate. The soul and the brain are the two most mysterious places in human beings. Even the strongest and the most erudite wise men cannot thoroughly study and understand these two places. Now Simon is thinking about it.
How to go home and explain all this to his happy wife. Simon knew that he could not accept this cruel reality, and his wife would definitely not be able to bear it.
"I have a way that might work." The old man said suddenly. Everyone immediately focused their attention on the old man, and Simon's eyes lit up again.
"You know the training methods of ghost swordsmen, right?" the old man continued.
"What does this have to do with practicing Ghost Swordsman? It's impossible to practice at such a young age." The city lord interrupted.
"The practice of a ghost swordsman is to fuse the ghosts produced by holding the sword with one's own soul to form ghosts and gods, which are sealed in one hand. Being able to skillfully control ghosts and gods is the threshold for ghost swordsmen. If you cannot control ghosts and gods, they will slowly dissipate.
"The old man ignored the interruption from the city lord and continued.
"If we combine the soul and ghost in this child's body to form a ghost and seal it in one hand, we may be able to save his life."
"It's okay to say the soul, but it doesn't make sense where ghosts come from." The city lord argued. After listening to the city lord's words, Simon turned his attention to the old man again.
"You don't understand the practice of the ghost swordsman. The ghost swordsman proposes that the evil in the soul is because evil is stronger than good in battle, and also to prevent himself from falling into darkness and losing his true heart in his future growth. And ghost is a
These thoughts are thoughts with negative emotions generated by holding the sword, but whether they are evil thoughts or good thoughts, they are just a kind of energy generated by the brain, and the final fusion only gives the soul a way of thinking.
"The old man explained
"How can he become a ghost when he is still a child?" Jones asked.
"Perhaps I can use my ghosts and gods to integrate into the child's body and help him form ghosts and gods." The old man thought for a while and said.
