Even if Hua Bushi is cured of the "Qianyuan End Meridian" disease a few years later, it will be impossible to rebuild the sect, because the old demon Wusheng will definitely not give him this opportunity.
Meng Wuming stared and said: "Is the 'Evil Dog Gate' so important in your heart, more important than your life?"
Hua Bushi lowered his eyes and said, "That's right... Master, please help me..."
Meng Wuming said: "No, I will never perform the 'Huitian Acupuncture Technique' on you. You must stay in bed to recuperate and don't allow random thoughts."
Hua Bushi said: "If Master refuses to perform the surgery, I will have to take other medicines. Even if the 'Huitian Needle' does not have a hundred-day effect, I should be able to do it for thirty to fifty days."
"You," Meng Wuming was so angry that he glared. He knew that the other drugs Hua Bushi mentioned were also drugs that could stimulate potential in a short period of time. If he really took it, his lifespan would only be longer. short.
Zhen Niang choked up and said: "Master, please don't be so stubborn. The sect is gone when it is gone. It doesn't matter if we can't avenge ourselves. If there is no place in the Middle-earth continent, we can still go to Okura Island or sail to the sea." If you go to other countries, as long as you can live well, it is better than anything else. I believe that your father has a spirit in heaven, and he must think so,"
Hua Bushi looked at Zhen Niang's tear-stained face and said slowly: "Aunt Zhen, don't be sad. I have already made a decision on this matter. It is not just to avenge my father. This is my ideal and my compensation." I have to do what I have to do even if I die. If I just give up the 'Evil Dog Gate' and let the demonic way wreak havoc in the world and kill at will, even if I live to be a hundred years old, I will just live an ignoble existence, which is meaningless."
Although his voice was weak, his tone was decisive and decisive.
Zhenniang said: "Why don't you think about the people who love you? Hongzhu has been married to you for so many years, and now her eldest brother has been harmed by the devil. How can you bear to leave her alone and careless? And Lan Miss Er, have you ever thought about how sad she would be?"
Hai Dashan and Yan Zhenbei followed Hua Tianxiong and his entourage from Wuyang to the capital, but they could not escape with their lives when they were attacked. Now Hai Hongzhu has no other relatives in this world.
Hua Bushi said: "The death of Master Hai Lao was also caused by me. I am really sorry for Hong Zhu. I will ask Aunt Zhen to take care of her in the future so that she can live a prosperous and peaceful life. This can be considered as compensation for me. As for Lan Miss, luckily we haven't had time to get married yet. I will explain to her later and ask her to go back to Okura Island first and then look for another husband and forget about me."
The young master had always looked calm before, but when he said this, his eyes could not help but turn red.
At this time, he heard a soft "cluck" sound coming from outside the door. Meng Wuming turned around and said, "Who is outside?"
The door of the room opened, and the woman standing outside was none other than Sima Rulan.
Previously, Meng Wuming drove everyone from the "Evil Dog Gate" out of the house and ordered Sima Rulan and Hai Hongzhu to grab medicine and boil it. There was a medicine shop opposite the house. Sima Rulan got the prescription and prepared it in a matter of seconds. I caught the medicine and gave it to Hai Hongzhu to take to the kitchen to fry.
For the past seven days, Hua Bushi had been in a coma, and Sima Rulan had been undressed and stayed with her bedside every day. Today he just woke up. She was happy but worried, so she turned back, just because she was afraid of the blame from Medical Sage Meng. She didn't dare to go in directly, so she stood quietly by the door and listened to what was going on in the room.
With Sima Rulan's Qinggong, she would have been completely silent standing by the door and would not have been noticed by the people in the house. However, she was already sad when she heard that Hua Bushi decided to use the secret technique of "Huitian Needle" to stimulate his potential and shorten his life. Extremely excited, Sima Rulan was so excited that she heard the eldest young master say that he wanted her to go back to Okura Island to find another husband. Her body trembled, and she accidentally knocked on the wooden door.
Seeing Sima Rulan standing outside the door, Hua Bushi was stunned and said: "Lan'er, you...you heard everything,"
Sima Rulan nodded and walked slowly into the door.
Meng Wuming had no intention of blaming her for hiding outside the door and eavesdropping, and said: "Miss Lan'er, you came just in time. Please help us to persuade this boy. He is obviously destined to live, and there is a beautiful woman by his side. But he chose to seek death."
Sima Rulan walked closer, sat down gently on the edge of the bed, grabbed Hua Bushi's hand and held it in her palm, looking at the young master with a pair of eyes like autumn water, her eyes were full of tenderness and care, but there was no No words.
Under Sima Rulan's tender gaze, Hua Bu lowered his eyes and did not dare to look at her. How could he not know that this girl loved him wholeheartedly and went to Middle-earth alone to find him, help him develop his sect, and I have been waiting for five years.
Just when she thought that everything was in vain and she could finally get married with her beloved, the result turned out to be like this. The person Hua Bushi felt sorry for was not only Hai Hongzhu, but also Sima Rulan. And this kind of He had no way to compensate for the debt.
After a long time, still not hearing a single word from the other party, Hua Bushi said: "You...don't you want to persuade me?"
Sima Rulan shook her head and said: "I don't advise you. When Lan'er first heard Mr. Hua talk about his dream in the secret cave of Swallowing Whale Island, she already knew that it was more important to you than anything else. If you have to sacrifice your life to achieve something important, you will not hesitate at all, and it will be useless for anyone to try to dissuade you."
Hua Bushi raised his eyes and looked at Sima Rulan, his eyes full of gratitude. If you love someone, you should understand him, support him, and let him realize his ideals instead of selfishly asking for and holding back. Tiao, if before this, the most important woman in Hua Bushi's heart was Yang Jiangyi, at this moment, he already felt that the girl in front of him was the real confidante.
"This battle with the devil is extremely difficult. Mr. Hua and the 'Evil Dog Gate' will definitely need me. Lan'er will not return to Okura Island, nor does she want to find another wife. As long as Mr. Hua still has one day to live, Lan'er will I will stay by your side. Even if you are gone, I will not give up. I will definitely try to destroy the devil and complete what you have not done. Please don’t dissuade me."
Sima Rulan stared at Hua Bushi and said word by word: "Because helping Mr. Hua realize his ideal is Lan'er's biggest wish in this life,"
Hua Bushi's eyes were already wet, and his body and limbs could not move. The hand held by Sima Rulan was completely unconscious, but at this moment, he could feel a warmth flowing from the palm of his hand and reaching his heart.
He said word by word: "Okay, I won't advise you. Let's help each other and fulfill our wishes together. Even if we die, it will be worth it."
The two hands were held together, and there was neither sadness nor guilt in the eyes of the two of them looking at each other. Instead, they were filled with happiness, warmth and incomparable determination.
Seeing this, Meng Wuming stamped his feet heavily and sighed: "Others say I have a weird temper, but you two are a hundred times weirder than me. Alas, you are simply crazy."

The year of Ding Chou was the tenth year after Emperor Chongzhen succeeded to the throne. This year was also a year of unpredictable and turbulent political situation in the Ming Dynasty.
After Yang Sichang was promoted to Minister of the Ministry of War, he was appointed Minister of Rites and Grand Scholar of Dongge, taking charge of the military and horse power in all areas. Important military and political positions in the five provinces of the Central Plains were replaced one after another. The power of the "eunuch party" increased greatly. Almost every army and horse was accompanied by eunuchs to supervise the army. , and Xiong Wencan, a confidant of the Cao family, also took office as Prime Minister for Military Affairs of the Five Provinces.
Within a month, Yang Sichang gathered 140,000 officers and troops, with an increase of 2.8 million taels in pay, mainly in the six provinces of Shaanxi, Henan, Huguang, Jiangbei, Yansui, Shanxi, Shandong, Jiangnan, Jiangxi, and Sichuan. In order to comply, a trap was set up to suppress the rebel armies from all walks of life. It was exactly the layout of the so-called "four squares, six corners, and ten sides of the net".
Under the siege of soldiers and horses from all directions, the rebel army's usual strategy of concentrating its forces to attack counties and towns, then scattering and fleeing when the government army came to conquer, no longer worked. In August, Zhang Xianzhong was captured in Nanyang Prefecture in Henan Province. He suffered heavy losses and was seriously injured. Thanks to his subordinate Sun Kewang, nicknamed "A Wall", who risked his life to resist, he escaped with his life and broke through the siege.
At the same time, "Crossing the Sky" Liu Guoneng, "Cao Cao" Luo Rucai and other rebels were also besieged in Hubei. They were short of food and pay, and their prospects were worrying. They were known as the most elite and most powerful in the middle of the 18th Route Rebel Army, and they continued to inherit the army. Li Zicheng, who had gained the title of "King Chuang" from Gao Yingxiang, was also captured by Hong Chengchun in Shaanxi Province, and Sun Chuanting drove him to flee everywhere without a place to stay.
The unstoppable peasant army that originally swept through the Central Plains was firmly trapped in just a few dozen days. There seemed to be no other way out for them except surrender.
At the same time that the Ming Dynasty was in turmoil and war, the rivers and lakes were also turbulent and wars broke out frequently, which was even worse than the turmoil in the imperial court.
A month ago, no one knew what the "Baolian Sect" was, but now these three words have become a name that scares all sects in the world.
It took a full six years for the "Evil Dog Sect" to rise, but it only took one month for the "Baolian Sect" to emerge. And the first action of this sect in the world was to raid the "Evil Dog Sect". "Dog Gate" is distributed in forty-three locations in various areas.
After a complete victory in the first battle, the "Baolian Sect" began to attack the large and small Baidao sects in various areas. Its development speed was astonishing. In the next month, the sect annexed a total of many sects. , I am afraid only the leaders of the sect can know, but what people have seen is that at least half of the Baidao sects have changed their banners to the "Baolian Sect" and become branches or branches of this sect. Now "Baolian Sect" The "Lotus Sect" has suddenly become the most powerful force in the world, and even the "Seven Sects" cannot compare with it.
To dominate the world in such a short period of time is of course just an appearance. Many people know that behind the "Baolian Sect" is the devil. Although the devil is secretive, it has always been the most terrifying force in the world. This time it is just a hidden force. And Ming has just revealed the iceberg that has been hidden under the water.
