Mr. Fu, after my wife is reborn, I won’t marry you unless you are the one to marry her.

After this farce, Gu Yanxi seemed to have completely accepted the fact that his family and friends were dead.

She never mentioned that mountain, that Taoist temple, and the Taoist priest who didn't know whether it was true or false again in front of Qi Yunyan.

She still often stared out the window with a calm expression, but she began to walk out of the ward, the hospital, and started new social interactions. Occasionally, she could see a normal smile on her face.

Qi Yunyan was happy for her change from the bottom of his heart.

He learned that Gu Yanxi began to visit those who had played an important role in the Gu family, and also began to reconnect with those friends who had lost contact and accumulate new connections.

Qi Yunyan knew that Gu Yanxi must be planning something of his own, probably preparing to compete with Shen Zhao and Gu Wan, so he supported it and worked harder to promote the development of drugs to suppress toxins.

Soon, there was a turning point.

One day, Qi Yunyan's doctor friend told him that the first-generation drug was successfully developed, but its effect was limited to suppressing toxins in a short period of time so that body functions would not be affected by toxins in a short period of time.

"This medicine cannot be put into use yet. It is just a test product. It will not eradicate toxins. Instead, it will have serious side effects and cause irreversible damage to the body."

"However, this is already good news. On this basis, if we continue to conduct in-depth research and development, sooner or later, we will be able to develop a drug that is completely resistant to this toxin and is harmless to the body."

Qi Yunyan is full of confidence.

At that time, Gu Yanxi was still one and a half years away from his estimated death date.

He didn't expect that when he talked to the doctor about the successful development of the first-generation medicine, Gu Yanxi heard clearly from outside the door.

She did not hide, but opened the door directly and went in. Pointing to the tubes of first-generation potions on the table, she said, "Give these to me."

Qi Yunyan thought she wanted to try it out, so he quickly stopped her and said, "No, this is still a test product and must not be used directly!"

"No." Gu Yanxi shook his head helplessly and said, "Just a thought, at least these few tubes of medicine are a milestone on the road to research and development, aren't they?"

Qi Yunyan didn't think much, "Okay, you can take it."

At that time, Qi Yunyan didn't know that Gu Yanxi had already started the countdown to death for Shen Zhao and Gu Wan.

Gu Yanxi had gone to Lingshan alone to meet the Taoist priest without telling Qi Yunyan.

When the thin-faced woman sat in front of the Taoist Priest and asked the question, "Can you bring people back to life?", the Taoist Priest's face showed the usual indifference, "No, people cannot be resurrected after death."

After speaking, there was no trace of disappointment on the woman's face.

He felt strange. If he didn't have expectations, why would he ask him this question? If he had expectations, how could he not be disappointed?

This woman was different from all the others who came to see him.

She was neither humble nor arrogant, and showed no trace of flattery. No matter what he asked or what answer he gave, the expression on her face was always indifferent.

Before leaving, Gu Yanxi left a message to the respected Taoist priest Wu Xin: "Next time I come to visit you, I hope you can help me."

"First of all, you have to tell me what you will do when you come back next time." He looked at her back, "otherwise I can't promise you."

Gu Yanxi paused slightly, pointed at the dense runes carved on the wall, and whispered: "I will offer sacrifices to the gods in exchange for my rebirth."

The Taoist priest's pupils suddenly shrank, and his usually calm face suddenly turned pale.

……

Gu Yanxi sat up in shock from his dream, looking back at his miserable past life. Although his face was still calm with a childish look, there was already a turmoil in his heart.

Lingshan is still the same Lingshan, where the masters hide.

Maybe it's time to visit that old friend.

"Yanyan, don't forget, ask the driver to take you to the hospital in the afternoon and arrange a full body examination for you." While eating breakfast, Gu Yanze once again brought up this topic that he had mentioned countless times.

Although she has reminded Gu Yanxi countless times, every time, Gu Yanxi always has one reason or another and says she doesn't have time.

"No, I'm going to dance at school this afternoon."

"Okay then." Gu Yanze had already heard that Gu Yanxi was going to participate in the school anniversary performance, so he could only sigh helplessly, "Then we will make arrangements when you are free."

Gu Yanxi said "Yeah" seemingly casually, but there was a hint of guilt in his dark eyes.

The afternoon dance was just an audition. The school specially invited several music teachers and dance teachers to select the thirteen most outstanding performances and include them in the school anniversary performance list.

A special classroom was set aside as the interview location.

There is no need to put on makeup or change clothes, just a simple presentation of the program.

Therefore, the process goes very quickly. Individuals or groups who have signed up take turns entering the classroom. People outside cannot see what is going on inside. Most of them come out in five or six minutes.

Results will not be released on the day, but the final results will be notified by the entertainment committee members of each class on Monday.

So Gu Yanxi walked into the classroom and danced the whole dance before walking out of the classroom. From the stunned expressions of the teachers, it can be guessed that they were quite satisfied with her performance.

"Xia Shuying, how is your foot recovering? Does it still hurt?"

"Shu Ying, don't be nervous, just do what you can."

Xia Shuying's dance fans gathered around her to inquire about her welfare.

"There are still two people left and it's your turn, Shuying. You should eat something to replenish your strength first."

Some people handed over water and others handed over snacks. Everyone was very concerned. Most of these people were boys.

Xia Shuying glanced in the direction of Gu Yanxi and showed a hard-to-speak expression, "Don't be so enthusiastic to me. If Gu Yanxi sees it, I will be in trouble again."

She spoke with a hint of apprehension, as if she was very afraid of Gu Yanxi.

The people present were startled when they heard the words, but soon understood the meaning of Xia Shuying's words.

It was Gu Yanxi's terrible jealousy that made Xia Shuying have to be so cautious.

A person who can hurt people's legs just because she dances better than her, what else can't she do?

The young and energetic boy was furious and clenched his fists, "Shuying, don't be afraid, I'm going to warn Gu Yanxi now!"

"Don't." Xia Shuying stopped her. She knew this boy. He was from Class [-]. "He Xiao, don't mess with her. I don't want to bring you any trouble."

He Xiao calmed down, looked at Gu Yanxi's arrogant back, and sneered, "Yes, a guy who dances like a zombie might not even be able to get on stage, no matter what she does."
