Rebirth: You Save Me with Your Deep Love
Chapter 495: Gain and Loss
Inside the Taoist Temple
The old Taoist priest no longer had the look of an immortal or enlightened master. He stuck his snow-white whisk into his clothes at his waist and took off his flowing purple robe for fear that it would get wet and dirty on the wet ground.
At this moment, the old man, who was dressed casually and peeking out through the crack of the door, looked like a naughty old boy.
Looking at the two people kneeling at the door with such pious expressions, the old Taoist priest felt unwell all over.
Isn’t this naked moral kidnapping?
Could it be that that brat Xiaoyuan said something he shouldn't have said?
But... this man who has been in a high position for a long time actually knelt down without hesitation?
Isn’t it said that men all care about their reputation?
A man's knees are as precious as gold, especially for a successful man, for whom face is more important than anything else.
But this person in front of me has no respect at all. He kneels so resolutely and devoutly in front of me, an old man.
It makes me feel so embarrassed!
The old Taoist priest, in a troubled mood, rubbed his hands and turned around several times. Then he walked carefully to the door and took a peek outside through the gap.
"Oh my..." Suddenly, his eyes met with the man outside the door, who was kneeling but still had an aura of two meters eighty. The frightened old Taoist priest quickly took a step back and patted his chest in fear.
Who would have thought that you could get caught spying?
It must be said that the person outside the door is indeed one of the few people with "good luck" in this world.
Wow, that look, that aura, even the posture of kneeling down to beg, makes him seem more courageous than others.
But everything in the universe is balanced. If you want to gain something, you must lose something. Even if you are blessed with good fortune, you cannot change the laws of the universe.
The old Taoist priest walked with his hands behind his back and his head down on the bluestone slabs arranged in the shape of the Eight Diagrams in the yard. Occasionally he looked up at the sky, or stretched out his five fingers to calculate. If you listened carefully, you could hear a slight murmur.
About half an hour later, the old Taoist priest suddenly stopped, turned his head and looked at the closed wooden door with a complicated look in his eyes.
"Although fate is predetermined, God has a benevolent heart and people also have compassion. If you are willing to pay the price, there is still a glimmer of hope."
"If you cultivate good karma, you will reap good results. If you can overcome your own desires and not commit murder, then the heavens will open up a ray of hope and give you another chance to live."
-
Until dusk fell and everything was dark, the drizzle in the sky stopped completely, and occasionally you could still find tiny dots of starlight in the vast Milky Way.
Chu Tingfeng was still kneeling on the spot, but in this bone-chilling autumn rain, a layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
He gently beat his fists on his knees and wrists, hoping to relieve the stabbing pain in his calves.
Chu Tingfeng could feel that his legs, which had just recovered, were about to be broken again.
Shen Yu said that although the medicine works very quickly, you still need to take good care of yourself afterwards. You can't stand the cold at all, and you can't use too much force for a long time.
If it was before Lin Yuze's heart attack, Chu Tingfeng would definitely cherish this opportunity to stand up.
But right now... whether I can stand up or not is no longer that important.
If Lin Yuze could recover his health without any worries, he would be willing to sacrifice not only his legs but even his life.
Chu Tingfeng thought so, but Xiong Wu behind him didn’t think so.
When Xiong Wu saw Chu Tingfeng beating his legs, he, who had been suppressing his anger, could no longer remain calm.
He stood up quickly and tried to pull Chu Tingfeng up in a tough manner, "Master, if you keep kneeling like this, your legs will be broken again. Let's go down the mountain now and find Shen Yu..."
Chu Tingfeng was reluctant to get up, but his legs were too weak to resist the force of Xiong Wu's hands, so he had to stop him quickly.
"Xiong Wu, Xiao Yuan said that if his master didn't directly refuse, it means there is hope. I can't miss this opportunity again."
"But your legs..."
"My legs were originally useless, but they were healed by chance...wait..."
A light flashed in his mind, and Chu Tingfeng's eyes changed drastically. His whole body froze, and then he sat down on the ground in an awkward posture, with a look of realization on his face.
The old Taoist priest's words came to my mind again: If there is gain, there must be loss... Are you willing to pay the price?
Chu Tingfeng grabbed Xiong Wu's hand and shouted excitedly: "Xiong Wu, I understand, I understand how to save Aze..."
"Ah?" Xiong Wu, whose only focus was on Chu Tingfeng's legs, was completely confused.
How come... you suddenly knew this?
Before Xiong Wu could think about it, Chu Tingfeng hurriedly urged, "Xiong Wu, go knock on the door."
"Ah...Oh!" Although Xiong Wu didn't know the reason, his first reaction was to follow the order. He let go of Chu Tingfeng's hand and walked forward to knock on the wooden door.
After a moment of silence, footsteps were heard from inside the door. The wooden door opened with a creak. The old Taoist priest was still wearing a purple robe, holding a whisk in his hand, and still looked like an immortal.
****
The old Taoist priest looked at Chu Tingfeng, who was slumped on the ground, and sighed softly, then stepped aside to make way for him. "Since you are determined, please follow me!"
After hearing what the old Taoist priest said, Chu Tingfeng's eyes brightened and he struggled to get up.
However, the sharp pain in his leg trapped him where he was, and he had to enter the Taoist temple with the help of Xiong Wu.
Xiong Wu carefully carried the person and followed the old Taoist priest into the monastery. When he saw Chu Tingfeng's pale face and beads of sweat on his forehead, he felt a little sad.
If it were before he met Silver Fox, Xiong Wu would have certainly disdained such behavior of risking his life for love.
They would also complain harshly: Damn it, how could Mr. Chu Sanye, a big boss who controls a region, get himself into such an embarrassing state?
But now Xiong Wu already has the love of his life, so he can understand it!
If Silver Fox's life was hanging by a thread, not to mention kneeling down to beg for mercy, even if it meant shooting himself, Xiong Wu would not hesitate at all as long as it could save his little fox.
I can only say that feelings are something that makes people hate and love them at the same time!
----
In the room, the two sat opposite each other. The old Taoist ignored Chu Tingfeng's trembling legs and poured tea leisurely. He raised his hand to signal Chu Tingfeng
Chu Tingfeng endured the stiffness and soreness in his legs, sat up as straight as possible, took the hot tea handed to him by the old Taoist priest, and took a sip to dispel the chill in his chest.
The old Taoist priest looked at Chu Tingfeng and asked casually, "My naughty disciple, is he doing well down the mountain? Did he cause any trouble?"
Speaking of Xiao Yuan, Chu Tingfeng's attitude became more respectful. "Master, you are a talented disciple. You are kind and benevolent, and you are loved by everyone. I will always remember your rescue and feel grateful."
Hearing his disciple being praised, the old Taoist priest was in good spirits. He suppressed the urge to laugh out loud and spoke modestly in an unskilled manner.
"That's good. My little apprentice is smart, but he's too naughty. He's extremely curious and wants to study everything. Let me tell you, Xiaoyuan..."
Chu Tingfeng never mentioned the pain in his leg. He kept a sincere look in his eyes and listened carefully to the old Taoist's praise of his disciple, which was both explicit and implicit.
Chu Tingfeng could feel that if he went down the mountain now and rushed to the hospital at full speed, his legs might still be saved.
But he couldn't leave, and had to endure the excruciating pain!
Wait for time... wait until I have paid the price, and then I long for the old immortal in front of me to give my lover a way to survive.
[I don’t know if you understand my setting!
Chu Tingfeng's legs were cured by the drugs in the underground palace in Guyaochi. Lin Yuze's heart attack was caused by being the first to enter the underground palace and being disturbed by the geomagnetic field.
Energy is conserved, and things have cause and effect. If Chu Tingfeng gains, then Lin Yuze loses. Now that Chu Tingfeng has chosen to give up "gaining", the old Taoist priest can make Lin Yuze "not lose". 】
[In addition, they gave up taking Xiao Yumei's heart. This is my idealization. I hope there is fairness in the world, the lives of ordinary people, and the needs of the rich... I can't say more about this!
In short, respect every life! 】
