i'm dating in a super race
Chapter 17
Ever since Shao Xingshu had an accident last time, Shen Feiqiao watched him very closely.
Shao Xingshu's itinerary for the past half month has been spent between school and home.
When I got home, I ate the food that Shao Tong had specially trained by the devil, but Grandpa had to lift the table every time he ate.
In the end, it was Shao Xingshu who did the cooking.
Shao Xingshu will study intensively with Shen Feiqiao after eating, and after the study, he will have intensive special training with Grandpa.
Shao Xingshu feels that his current life is harder than the sum of the previous 18 years.
On the first day, as soon as he summoned a weapon, he immediately knelt down, as if his body had been hollowed out.
On the second day, he was finally able to hold the weapon and dance for 3 minutes, and then he was drained and fell down again.
On the third day, he adapted and learned to use this weapon. Grandpa said, I want you to summon three of them now.
Day [-]...
……
"I will die."
Shao Xingshu stared blankly at the physics problem in front of him, feeling that the speed vm/s and gravity gn were holding hands and laughing and running farther and farther, and he couldn't catch it.
"What's the choice for this question?"
Shen Feiqiao knocked on the desk, and Shao Xingshu wrote down c reflexively, which turned out to be correct.
"...then continue to do the same question type."
Shao Xingshu looked at Shen Feiqiao who was at ease, and threw the pen on the table.
"Why don't you even study!"
Shen Feiqiao's eyes fell on the upper right corner of the desk, on which were the test papers of the quiz a few days ago, except for Chinese and English, which almost didn't have full marks, everything else was full marks.
"I read it secretly when you didn't see it." Shen Feiqiao said taking care of Shao Xingshu's emotions.
"Liar," Shao Xingshu rested his head on the table, and looked sideways at Shen Feiqiao, "You are simply a god of learning who can just flip through two pages of the book before the exam and get full marks!"
Shao Xingshu blinked, and his cheeks puffed up slightly as he pressed the table, like a butterfly fluttering in his heart, tickling his heart.
"Well, I lied."
Shen Feiqiao laughed out loud, and raised her hand to rub Shao Xing's soft hair.
"The final exam is coming soon, let's go!"
Shao Xingshu listened to Shen Feiqiao's lecture, maybe because his MP was overdrawn in the past half month, he actually fell asleep listening to it.
When it was time to practice, Shao He knocked on the door and came in, only to see Shao Xingshu sleeping soundly while hugging the quilt.
"Are you so tired from studying?" Shao He looked at Shao Xingshu's unpromising appearance, and clicked his tongue, not feeling anything wrong with his Spartan training.
"Maybe it's a bit hard to absorb so much knowledge just half a month after awakening."
Shen Feiqiao sat on the carpet, his line of sight could just see Shao Xingshu lying on the bed.
"You dote on him more than I do. You really regard yourself as an older brother."
Shao He said so, but he didn't wake up Shao Xingshu, but turned and left.
After Shao He left, Shen Feiqiao raised his eyebrows.
"Who wants to be an older brother?"
Shao Xingshu had a good night's sleep, and when he woke up in the morning, he found himself lying on Shen Feiqiao's bed, and Shen Feiqiao didn't know where he had gone.
He was embarrassed to occupy Shen Feiqiao's bed, he hurriedly got up to wash up, but he didn't see Shen Feiqiao along the way, so he had to go to the kitchen to make breakfast first.
Shao Tong was startled when he wandered in.
"Xing Shu, you go out quickly, if the second grandpa sees me, I will be hanged from a tree and beaten severely."
"Then beat him severely," Shao Xingshu drove away Shao Tong impatiently, "Your cooking is salty and unpalatable!"
Shao Xingshu thought about cooking noodles this morning, made the toppings, and also thought about making soy sauce chicken for lunch, but found that the soy sauce bottle in the cabinet was empty.
There were still two big bottles before, so Shao Tong probably added soy sauce to the dish as water.No wonder it's so salty!
When it was time for breakfast, Shao He ate noodles topped with green pepper shredded pork and reminded Shao Xingshu.
"After breakfast, you continue to practice for me, and make up for what I got yesterday!"
"Yes, yes, it's Saturday anyway."
Shao Xingshu, who had fully recovered after a good night's sleep, nodded, and then he glanced at Shen Feiqiao who was eating noodles with his head down.
"Where did you sleep last night?"
"In your room." Shen Feiqiao responded.
"I'm sorry."
Shao Xingshu felt ashamed, and thought he spread more toppings into Shen Feiqiao's bowl indiscriminately.
Shao Tong: I have seen it all. ==
After eating, Shao He went to the practice room to wait, while Shao Tong and Shen Feiqiao washed the dishes.
"Xing Shu, come quickly!" Shao He yelled in the corridor.
"understood!"
Shao Xingshu changed into short-sleeved shorts for easy movement and was about to go there when he suddenly remembered that he hadn't bought soy sauce yet.
Within a few minutes, Shao Xingshu strolled out to buy soy sauce.
I met the neighbor's grandmother in the grocery store, and the neighbor's grandmother thought he was a child, and touched a handful of fruit candy for him.
Shao Xingshu didn't refuse, and happily walked home while eating candy.
There are not many people in Tanxi Lane on weekends, and it is too hot.
Occasionally a bicycle bell rang.A middle-aged man wearing a straw hat, sweatshirt and shorts rode a bicycle through the alley. There was an iron box at the rear of the car, with "popsicles, sorbet, and ice fruit" neatly written on it in black paint.
"Selling Ice Lo—"
Shao Xingshu glanced at it, thinking that Bingguozi is also good.
Because of the two canals where koi are raised, Tanxi Lane is always visited by tourists during holidays.
When Shao Xingshu saw that person for the first time, he thought he had returned to the fantasy dream of the mirror water lake.
After he blinked again, he was sure that the person in front of him was a living person.
He was wearing an old-time gown like Shao Chunyuan's. Although it was light and thin, it was still starched and fit close to the body.The gown is white, with tight cuffs, elegant green bamboo embroidered on the chest and hem.
He had half-length hair, tied low at the end with a white embroidered golden headband, and hung down his shoulders, covering his cheeks. Shao Xingshu didn't see his appearance clearly, but felt a little familiar.
The man was putting his right hand in the ditch, his slender fingers seemed to be trying to touch the golden carp, the carp dodged left and right, but was fascinated by the two rich green emerald rings on the man's thumb and middle finger , waving its tiny fins to kiss.
"It's better not to put your hands down, these carps like to spit water and spray people."
Shao Xingshu walked towards the man, and saw the man get up when he heard the sound, and turned towards Shao Xingshu.
"is it?"
The young man's voice was so elegant and clear that Shao Xingshu couldn't help looking up.
This person was nearly 1.9 meters tall, with facial features as delicate as carvings, skin as fine as porcelain, a pair of peach blossom eyes full of affection, a red tear mole at the corner of the left eye, and a smile like a spring flower.
Shao Xingshu stared at him blankly for a while, and felt that he should be a noble son who could only be born in a place where gold and jade were piled up, and he had no air of human fireworks.
It wasn't until the young man tilted his head in doubt that Shao Xingshu looked away.
"Well, I live here, so I know it." Shao Xingshu pointed at the carp who was poking his head, with an unruly posture.
"Thank you."
The young man smiled and bent his eyebrows, as if he really thanked Shao Xingshu.
"If you like, just stand a little farther away and look at it."
This man had a good life and a sweet smile, but Shao Xingshu always felt that it was not real.He rarely walked around cautiously, nodded to the young man and was about to leave.
The young man behind him suddenly let out a soft cry, and there was a splash in the drain. Shao Xingshu turned his head and saw two koi jumping up and spraying two jets of water neatly on the young man.
The hem of the elegant and delicate gown was suddenly wet.
Shao Xingshu and the young man looked at each other.
"If you don't want to dislike it, you can go to my house to dry the clothes?"
"Thank you so much."
The young man readily agreed, and walked forward behind Shao Xingshu.He was slender, and his shadow could envelop Shao Xingshu completely. Shao Xingshu didn't notice it, and stopped in front of his house.
Shao Xingshu pushed open the door, but the young man didn't come in, with a smile on his extremely elegant face, he asked again for some reason.
"Can I go in?"
"Yes." Shao Xingshu nodded again as he was being polite.
"Then... I will bother you."
Before the young man raised the hem of his long gown and stepped over the threshold, he knocked on the door panel twice more, that was a knock on the door to invite you in.
"Xing Zhu—where did you go hiding!"
With a cup of tea in his hand, Shao He stood on the steps in the yard as he walked, roaring with huge lung capacity.
Shen Feiqiao put on his shoes, as if he was going out to find him.
"I'm going out to make a bottle of soy sauce." Shao Xingshu quickly raised the soy sauce bottle in his hand, and walked over in three steps at a time.
Shao He snorted, and his gaze fell on the person behind Shao Xingshu.
Years passed, decades passed, and he seemed to see his compatriot brother cross the long river of time and come to him again.
"Grandpa, his clothes got wet, I asked him to come to our house to dry."
Shao Xingshu saw Shao He stunned, so he explained.
"Second grandpa."
The noble young man took a few steps forward, knelt down towards Shao He, and pressed his forehead to the ground.
"Grandpa passed away, and I brought you his last words."
Shao Congyue, the current patriarch of the Shao family, came to Nanzhou for two weeks and visited alone today.
Shen Feiqiao stood on the promenade in the backyard, quietly looking at the closed practice room.
Shao Tong sat on the roof of the front yard, as if he would run away immediately if something went wrong.
"I didn't expect him to come by himself."
Shao Tong muttered to himself, and looked down at Shen Feiqiao.
"If he suddenly violently kills me later, will you take action?"
"His target is not you." Shen Feiqiao shook his head.
In the summer of Nanzhou, cicadas and birds are constantly singing, but the air in this small house is quiet.
In the practice room, Shao He and Shao Xingshu looked at the miniature projector placed on the ground.
Shao Congyue pressed lightly, and the projector projected a ward on the white wall.
In the ward, a thin old man with white beard and hair was wearing a neat long gown, sitting on the sofa beside the hospital bed.
"Qin Xia."
Shao Qinchun still had that iconic smiling face, and sat upright in front of the camera with a cane under his hand.
On his face and the back of his hands were many strange black spots, which ran down to the collar of his collar.He called out Shao He's previous name, and then fell into a long silence.
After a long while, Shao Qinchun blinked, and then he seemed to recover from deep thought.
"I know you're doing well, and Xing Shu is also good and fine. Brother... I've always been very relieved."
"I just didn't expect that you didn't come back even when your mother passed away."
Shao Qinchun stroked the smooth crutch with his palm, coughed twice, and Shao Congyue in the ward also came into the camera and patted him on the back.
"This is my grandson Cong Yue. He is the head of the Shao family. He is capable, sensible, and not as bad as me."
As soon as the word "bad" came out, Shao Qinchun laughed at himself.
"I'm about to die, and it's only been two days. I heard that Xingshu has also awakened the abilities of the Shao family. I'm very happy. After I die, would you like to go back to the Shao family?"
"Now the Shao family is different from before. It is stable and will not go fork in the road again."
"I have kept a room for you and Xingshu in the old house. You will definitely like it. I also found the knife from Xintinghou that you asked for on your birthday. It is genuine. I also bought stationery for Xingshu to go to school. After buying it, his room is next to Cong Yue. Cong Yue is a good brother, better than me, he will take good care of his brother, and will not let him suffer at all... Don't leave, okay? Mom cries every day, brother... …elder brother……"
Shao Qinchun began to babble while speaking, the word order was out of order, and his eyes looked at the mid-air erratically, as if watching some kind of illusory hallucination.
Shao Congyue smiled apologetically at the camera, bent slightly as if trying to turn off the camera.
But Shao Qinchun suddenly raised his head and looked straight ahead, his dark eyes were full of raging flames.
"Brother... don't regret it!"
"You are a real gentleman, and I am a real villain!"
"But during my tenure, no one in the Shao family died! I don't regret it!!!"
……
In the practice room, the projection ended here, and Shao Congyue sat opposite Shao He and Shao Xingshu.
"Grandpa's words, that's all."
Shao Congyue once again solemnly knelt down and kowtowed to Shao He.
"Please and Xingshu, come home with me."
After a while, Shao He said calmly.
"I don't believe you."
Shao Congyue also slowly raised his head from the ground, with a smile still on his face.
"I see."
He raised his hand to grab it in the void, and a small black hole appeared in front of his palm.With a light tap in the black hole, he pulled out two wooden boxes, one large and one small.
The young Shao Congyue handed it to Shao Xingshu, who is still unbelievable.
"This is your 20th birthday present from grandpa." Shao Congyue gently pushed the older one to Shao He.
Shao He saw that the long carved wooden box was not opened, but even through the box, he could smell the rust of the weapons inside.
"This is the jade that my great-grandmother gave to Xingshu." Shao Congyue looked at Shao Xingshu tenderly.
Shao Xingshu glanced at Shao He, and after Shao He nodded in agreement, he gently opened the wooden box. Inside the wooden box was a piece of emerald-like jade on a red velvet cushion.Shao Xingshu's name, date of birth, and two lines of characters were engraved in the corner on the palm-sized jade stone.
[Tong Ru Zong Song, Ban Bai Huan You Yi].
"……great grandmother."
Shao Xingshu looked at the piece of jade, his eyes were as ignorant and clean as that of a young animal.
Shao Congye glanced at it, then asked Shao Xingshu again.
"Xing Zhu, do you want to go home with me?"
Shao Xingshu came to his senses at this moment and shook his head firmly.
"I want to follow Grandpa. You...you are not good, you called those people to Nanzhou to take me and Grandpa away by force, and you even killed Shao Tong."
Listening to Shao Xingshu's words, Shao Congyue said slowly without being ashamed.
"Grandpa was very ill at that time. I wanted to take you to see him for the last time, but I still missed it. I did it wrong. As for going home, as long as you don't nod yourself, I will never force you of."
"Shao Tong, why did I kill him? Did I do it?"
Shao raised his head slightly from Yue, and there was no misunderstood grievance or shame in his eyes, he just looked at Shao Xingshu quietly.
Shao Xingshu couldn't say anything. He had no evidence, and he was not a child who could speak harsh words in front of others.
"Go back."
Shao He waved his hand, Shao Congyue was silent for a while, then nodded and got up.
"Star beam, give it away."
Shao He ordered again, and Shao Xingshu also got up and sent Shao Congyue away from the practice room.
On the promenade, Shao Congyue saw Shen Feiqiao standing not far away, and turned to look at Shao Xingshu.
"Xing Zhu, is that your friend?"
"En." Shao Xingshu was silent for a while, then nodded shyly.
"Really? I'm very relieved that such a person is by your side to protect you." Shao Congyue smiled slightly at Shen Feiqiao, who was expressionless.
As for Shao Tong sitting on the roof, Shao Cong Yue didn't even look at him.
"Then, I will bother you today."
Shao Congyue walked to the front yard by himself, and there was a car honking outside the alleyway, as if someone was coming to pick him up.
At the gate of Tanxi Lane, Shao Congyue got into the car calmly.
"Second Grandpa and Xingshu...didn't come?" Shao Congshuang asked as he looked at Shao Congyue who got into the car alone.
"Second Grandpa is here, why did he come?" Shao Congyue propped his chin with one hand, "Xing Shu...is really a child raised by love, upright, gentle, and obedient."
"cute."
Shao Congshuang listened expressionlessly to Shao Congyue's words and was about to drive, but was stopped by Shao Congyue again.
"I saw someone selling popsicles and ice fruit, go and buy one for me."
"Nanzhou...it's too hot."
Shao Xingshu sent the Great Demon King away, but felt that the Great Demon King was not as terrifying as in the legend.
Shao Tong just slid down from the roof, and Shao Xingshu looked at the shivering guy.
"He's different from what you said."
"Then maybe... I was also deceived. The Patriarch always speaks half a sentence, the truth is like a joke, and the joke is like the truth. I also... don't understand?" Shao Tong laughed.
Shao Xingshu snorted unhappily, thinking that the matter was finally settled, but he saw Shen Feiqiao's face was pensive.
"what happened?"
"It's nothing." Shen Feiqiao raised his head and curled one corner of his mouth, "You should go to practice."
"Oh, one or two are urging."
Shao Xingshu muttered, and walked to the practice room.
"Grandfather, do I still want to practice? I think Shao Congyue just mentioned it casually, and he didn't want us to go back to Shao's house at all."
As soon as Shao Xingshu walked to the door of the practice room, he saw the big wooden box in front of Shao He open, and there was a sharp long knife in the wooden box. Holding the knife in his arms, Shao He fell to the ground with a pale face.
"...Grandpa?" Shao Xingshu stared blankly at Shao He, then rushed in.
Nanzhou People's Hospital.
Shao Xingshu stood in the ward, watching the doctor pull away Shao He's clothes.
Unknowingly, black spots resembling age spots appeared on Shao He's upper body.
Shao Xingshu could see clearly that in the video of the grandfather's last words not long ago, he also had this thing on his body.
"Superpower backlash," the doctor looked at the spots on the skin with some headaches, "Fortunately, it's still early days."
"Generally speaking, the higher the superpower level and the stronger the ability, the easier it is to be backlashed when using it. But this old man can live to this day, which shows that he has been paying attention... Maybe he has reached his age."
The doctor looked at Shao Xingshu.
"Recently, did the old man have any direct blood relatives who also passed away because of this disease?"
Shao Xingshu tightly pinched his fingers in the palm of his hand, remembering Shao Qinchun's face covered with dark spots in the projection, he asked after a while.
"Is this disease contagious, or is it caused by other human beings?"
The doctor shook his head affirmatively: "It's just that the body can no longer bear the use of superpowers, and it has nothing to do with anything else."
"...Can it be cured?"
Shao Xingshu's question was a bit strange to the doctor. He didn't ask "how long can I live?" but only asked "whether it can be cured".Although the red eyes of this handsome young man in front of him are very endearing, the doctor can't say anything against his will because of this.
"Modern medical methods... can't do it. If you take good care of it, you'll probably have a year or two to live."
Shao Xingshu burst into tears on the spot.
He never cried before, but now he couldn't help it, he could only wipe his tears and gasp softly.
"But at that time, I... Grandpa... I... haven't grown up yet."
This is so fucking fucked up, Shao Tong sighed and looked down at the phone.
Shen Feiqiao hugged Shao Xingshu tightly, pressing his face to her chest.He couldn't speak, just patted Shao Xingshu's back lightly like comforting a child.
"why are you crying?"
Shao He woke up at some point, seeing Shao Xingshu crying, he frowned vigorously.
"outrageous!"
Shao He was full of energy, he didn't look like a terminally ill person at all.
Shao Xingshu immediately rushed to Shao He's bed and buried his head in Shao He's pillow.
After 10 minutes, Shao He understood the ins and outs from Shao Xingshu who was crying to belching.He muttered "I thought I had age spots", and then yelled angrily.
"I'm fine! I want lunch!"
Shao Xingshu went out in a hurry, thinking that Grandpa could eat whatever he wanted, while Shao Tong obediently went to fetch hot water, and only Shen Feiqiao stayed in the ward.
Shao He glanced at Shen Feiqiao who was about to take his temperature.
"Boy, I have something to tell you."
Shao Xingshu went downstairs to buy a meal, and immediately went back to the inpatient department.Seeing that the door of the ward was closed tightly, he took a deep breath to calm himself down, put on a smile and was about to reach out to push the door.
"I didn't expect... I would also be afraid of death."
Shao He's voice came faintly from the ward, and Shao Xingshu involuntarily stopped at the door.
"Star Beam is right..."
"Yeah...why is he still so young?"
Shao He's tone was a little choked, and then he continued.
"Can you take care of him? It won't be long. You will be in the same class with him, live in that house with him, and go to university with him. When he goes to other places to study in university, don't go back to the South State. After a long time...he will forget me. Fei Qiao, I will give you..."
"I don't need any reward." Shen Feiqiao's voice was gentle and powerful, "As long as he is willing, I will do my best to prevent him from being wronged."
"Take good care of your body. Xingshu will cry because he misses you. He has grown up and has a good memory. How could he forget you?"
Shen Feiqiao talked with Shao He for a long time, his eyes and ears were sharp, even if there were people coming and going in the corridor, he could still tell the difference.
Shen Feiqiao helped Shao He up, let him drink some water, and pushed open the door of the ward.
Outside the door, Shao Xingshu happily held up a registration form, and shouted at the surprised Shen Feiqiao and Shao He in the ward.
"I decided to participate in Tianlai! When I win the championship, I will let that superpower who can fulfill all wishes make Grandpa get better! Live a long life!"
In the corridor of the hospital, the doctor who treated Shao He looked blankly at the busy traffic outside.
The nurse next to him called him several times before he could react.
"You said, did I do something wrong?" the doctor asked.
"What's wrong?" The nurse hurried the doctor to see the next patient.
Shao Xingshu's itinerary for the past half month has been spent between school and home.
When I got home, I ate the food that Shao Tong had specially trained by the devil, but Grandpa had to lift the table every time he ate.
In the end, it was Shao Xingshu who did the cooking.

On the third day, he adapted and learned to use this weapon. Grandpa said, I want you to summon three of them now.
Day [-]...
……
"I will die."
Shao Xingshu stared blankly at the physics problem in front of him, feeling that the speed vm/s and gravity gn were holding hands and laughing and running farther and farther, and he couldn't catch it.
"What's the choice for this question?"
Shen Feiqiao knocked on the desk, and Shao Xingshu wrote down c reflexively, which turned out to be correct.
"...then continue to do the same question type."

Shao Xingshu and the young man looked at each other.
"If you don't want to dislike it, you can go to my house to dry the clothes?"
"Thank you so much."
The young man readily agreed, and walked forward behind Shao Xingshu.He was slender, and his shadow could envelop Shao Xingshu completely. Shao Xingshu didn't notice it, and stopped in front of his house.
Shao Xingshu pushed open the door, but the young man didn't come in, with a smile on his extremely elegant face, he asked again for some reason.
"Can I go in?"
"Yes." Shao Xingshu nodded again as he was being polite.
"Then... I will bother you."
Before the young man raised the hem of his long gown and stepped over the threshold, he knocked on the door panel twice more, that was a knock on the door to invite you in.
"Xing Zhu—where did you go hiding!"
With a cup of tea in his hand, Shao He stood on the steps in the yard as he walked, roaring with huge lung capacity.
Shen Feiqiao put on his shoes, as if he was going out to find him.
"I'm going out to make a bottle of soy sauce." Shao Xingshu quickly raised the soy sauce bottle in his hand, and walked over in three steps at a time.
Shao He snorted, and his gaze fell on the person behind Shao Xingshu.
Years passed, decades passed, and he seemed to see his compatriot brother cross the long river of time and come to him again.
"Grandpa, his clothes got wet, I asked him to come to our house to dry."
Shao Xingshu saw Shao He stunned, so he explained.
"Second grandpa."
The noble young man took a few steps forward, knelt down towards Shao He, and pressed his forehead to the ground.
"Grandpa passed away, and I brought you his last words."
Shao Congyue, the current patriarch of the Shao family, came to Nanzhou for two weeks and visited alone today.
Shen Feiqiao stood on the promenade in the backyard, quietly looking at the closed practice room.
Shao Tong sat on the roof of the front yard, as if he would run away immediately if something went wrong.
"I didn't expect him to come by himself."
Shao Tong muttered to himself, and looked down at Shen Feiqiao.
"If he suddenly violently kills me later, will you take action?"
"His target is not you." Shen Feiqiao shook his head.
In the summer of Nanzhou, cicadas and birds are constantly singing, but the air in this small house is quiet.
In the practice room, Shao He and Shao Xingshu looked at the miniature projector placed on the ground.
Shao Congyue pressed lightly, and the projector projected a ward on the white wall.
In the ward, a thin old man with white beard and hair was wearing a neat long gown, sitting on the sofa beside the hospital bed.
"Qin Xia."
Shao Qinchun still had that iconic smiling face, and sat upright in front of the camera with a cane under his hand.
On his face and the back of his hands were many strange black spots, which ran down to the collar of his collar.He called out Shao He's previous name, and then fell into a long silence.
After a long while, Shao Qinchun blinked, and then he seemed to recover from deep thought.
"I know you're doing well, and Xing Shu is also good and fine. Brother... I've always been very relieved."
"I just didn't expect that you didn't come back even when your mother passed away."
Shao Qinchun stroked the smooth crutch with his palm, coughed twice, and Shao Congyue in the ward also came into the camera and patted him on the back.
"This is my grandson Cong Yue. He is the head of the Shao family. He is capable, sensible, and not as bad as me."
As soon as the word "bad" came out, Shao Qinchun laughed at himself.
"I'm about to die, and it's only been two days. I heard that Xingshu has also awakened the abilities of the Shao family. I'm very happy. After I die, would you like to go back to the Shao family?"
"Now the Shao family is different from before. It is stable and will not go fork in the road again."
"I have kept a room for you and Xingshu in the old house. You will definitely like it. I also found the knife from Xintinghou that you asked for on your birthday. It is genuine. I also bought stationery for Xingshu to go to school. After buying it, his room is next to Cong Yue. Cong Yue is a good brother, better than me, he will take good care of his brother, and will not let him suffer at all... Don't leave, okay? Mom cries every day, brother... …elder brother……"
Shao Qinchun began to babble while speaking, the word order was out of order, and his eyes looked at the mid-air erratically, as if watching some kind of illusory hallucination.
Shao Congyue smiled apologetically at the camera, bent slightly as if trying to turn off the camera.
But Shao Qinchun suddenly raised his head and looked straight ahead, his dark eyes were full of raging flames.
"Brother... don't regret it!"
"You are a real gentleman, and I am a real villain!"
"But during my tenure, no one in the Shao family died! I don't regret it!!!"
……
In the practice room, the projection ended here, and Shao Congyue sat opposite Shao He and Shao Xingshu.
"Grandpa's words, that's all."
Shao Congyue once again solemnly knelt down and kowtowed to Shao He.
"Please and Xingshu, come home with me."
After a while, Shao He said calmly.
"I don't believe you."
Shao Congyue also slowly raised his head from the ground, with a smile still on his face.
"I see."
He raised his hand to grab it in the void, and a small black hole appeared in front of his palm.With a light tap in the black hole, he pulled out two wooden boxes, one large and one small.
The young Shao Congyue handed it to Shao Xingshu, who is still unbelievable.
"This is your 20th birthday present from grandpa." Shao Congyue gently pushed the older one to Shao He.
Shao He saw that the long carved wooden box was not opened, but even through the box, he could smell the rust of the weapons inside.
"This is the jade that my great-grandmother gave to Xingshu." Shao Congyue looked at Shao Xingshu tenderly.
Shao Xingshu glanced at Shao He, and after Shao He nodded in agreement, he gently opened the wooden box. Inside the wooden box was a piece of emerald-like jade on a red velvet cushion.Shao Xingshu's name, date of birth, and two lines of characters were engraved in the corner on the palm-sized jade stone.
[Tong Ru Zong Song, Ban Bai Huan You Yi].
"……great grandmother."
Shao Xingshu looked at the piece of jade, his eyes were as ignorant and clean as that of a young animal.
Shao Congye glanced at it, then asked Shao Xingshu again.
"Xing Zhu, do you want to go home with me?"
Shao Xingshu came to his senses at this moment and shook his head firmly.
"I want to follow Grandpa. You...you are not good, you called those people to Nanzhou to take me and Grandpa away by force, and you even killed Shao Tong."
Listening to Shao Xingshu's words, Shao Congyue said slowly without being ashamed.
"Grandpa was very ill at that time. I wanted to take you to see him for the last time, but I still missed it. I did it wrong. As for going home, as long as you don't nod yourself, I will never force you of."
"Shao Tong, why did I kill him? Did I do it?"
Shao raised his head slightly from Yue, and there was no misunderstood grievance or shame in his eyes, he just looked at Shao Xingshu quietly.
Shao Xingshu couldn't say anything. He had no evidence, and he was not a child who could speak harsh words in front of others.
"Go back."
Shao He waved his hand, Shao Congyue was silent for a while, then nodded and got up.
"Star beam, give it away."
Shao He ordered again, and Shao Xingshu also got up and sent Shao Congyue away from the practice room.
On the promenade, Shao Congyue saw Shen Feiqiao standing not far away, and turned to look at Shao Xingshu.
"Xing Zhu, is that your friend?"
"En." Shao Xingshu was silent for a while, then nodded shyly.
"Really? I'm very relieved that such a person is by your side to protect you." Shao Congyue smiled slightly at Shen Feiqiao, who was expressionless.
As for Shao Tong sitting on the roof, Shao Cong Yue didn't even look at him.
"Then, I will bother you today."
Shao Congyue walked to the front yard by himself, and there was a car honking outside the alleyway, as if someone was coming to pick him up.
At the gate of Tanxi Lane, Shao Congyue got into the car calmly.
"Second Grandpa and Xingshu...didn't come?" Shao Congshuang asked as he looked at Shao Congyue who got into the car alone.
"Second Grandpa is here, why did he come?" Shao Congyue propped his chin with one hand, "Xing Shu...is really a child raised by love, upright, gentle, and obedient."
"cute."
Shao Congshuang listened expressionlessly to Shao Congyue's words and was about to drive, but was stopped by Shao Congyue again.
"I saw someone selling popsicles and ice fruit, go and buy one for me."
"Nanzhou...it's too hot."
Shao Xingshu sent the Great Demon King away, but felt that the Great Demon King was not as terrifying as in the legend.
Shao Tong just slid down from the roof, and Shao Xingshu looked at the shivering guy.
"He's different from what you said."
"Then maybe... I was also deceived. The Patriarch always speaks half a sentence, the truth is like a joke, and the joke is like the truth. I also... don't understand?" Shao Tong laughed.
Shao Xingshu snorted unhappily, thinking that the matter was finally settled, but he saw Shen Feiqiao's face was pensive.
"what happened?"
"It's nothing." Shen Feiqiao raised his head and curled one corner of his mouth, "You should go to practice."
"Oh, one or two are urging."
Shao Xingshu muttered, and walked to the practice room.
"Grandfather, do I still want to practice? I think Shao Congyue just mentioned it casually, and he didn't want us to go back to Shao's house at all."
As soon as Shao Xingshu walked to the door of the practice room, he saw the big wooden box in front of Shao He open, and there was a sharp long knife in the wooden box. Holding the knife in his arms, Shao He fell to the ground with a pale face.
"...Grandpa?" Shao Xingshu stared blankly at Shao He, then rushed in.
Nanzhou People's Hospital.
Shao Xingshu stood in the ward, watching the doctor pull away Shao He's clothes.
Unknowingly, black spots resembling age spots appeared on Shao He's upper body.
Shao Xingshu could see clearly that in the video of the grandfather's last words not long ago, he also had this thing on his body.
"Superpower backlash," the doctor looked at the spots on the skin with some headaches, "Fortunately, it's still early days."
"Generally speaking, the higher the superpower level and the stronger the ability, the easier it is to be backlashed when using it. But this old man can live to this day, which shows that he has been paying attention... Maybe he has reached his age."
The doctor looked at Shao Xingshu.
"Recently, did the old man have any direct blood relatives who also passed away because of this disease?"
Shao Xingshu tightly pinched his fingers in the palm of his hand, remembering Shao Qinchun's face covered with dark spots in the projection, he asked after a while.
"Is this disease contagious, or is it caused by other human beings?"
The doctor shook his head affirmatively: "It's just that the body can no longer bear the use of superpowers, and it has nothing to do with anything else."
"...Can it be cured?"
Shao Xingshu's question was a bit strange to the doctor. He didn't ask "how long can I live?" but only asked "whether it can be cured".Although the red eyes of this handsome young man in front of him are very endearing, the doctor can't say anything against his will because of this.
"Modern medical methods... can't do it. If you take good care of it, you'll probably have a year or two to live."
Shao Xingshu burst into tears on the spot.
He never cried before, but now he couldn't help it, he could only wipe his tears and gasp softly.
"But at that time, I... Grandpa... I... haven't grown up yet."
This is so fucking fucked up, Shao Tong sighed and looked down at the phone.
Shen Feiqiao hugged Shao Xingshu tightly, pressing his face to her chest.He couldn't speak, just patted Shao Xingshu's back lightly like comforting a child.
"why are you crying?"
Shao He woke up at some point, seeing Shao Xingshu crying, he frowned vigorously.
"outrageous!"
Shao He was full of energy, he didn't look like a terminally ill person at all.
Shao Xingshu immediately rushed to Shao He's bed and buried his head in Shao He's pillow.
After 10 minutes, Shao He understood the ins and outs from Shao Xingshu who was crying to belching.He muttered "I thought I had age spots", and then yelled angrily.
"I'm fine! I want lunch!"
Shao Xingshu went out in a hurry, thinking that Grandpa could eat whatever he wanted, while Shao Tong obediently went to fetch hot water, and only Shen Feiqiao stayed in the ward.
Shao He glanced at Shen Feiqiao who was about to take his temperature.
"Boy, I have something to tell you."
Shao Xingshu went downstairs to buy a meal, and immediately went back to the inpatient department.Seeing that the door of the ward was closed tightly, he took a deep breath to calm himself down, put on a smile and was about to reach out to push the door.
"I didn't expect... I would also be afraid of death."
Shao He's voice came faintly from the ward, and Shao Xingshu involuntarily stopped at the door.
"Star Beam is right..."
"Yeah...why is he still so young?"
Shao He's tone was a little choked, and then he continued.
"Can you take care of him? It won't be long. You will be in the same class with him, live in that house with him, and go to university with him. When he goes to other places to study in university, don't go back to the South State. After a long time...he will forget me. Fei Qiao, I will give you..."
"I don't need any reward." Shen Feiqiao's voice was gentle and powerful, "As long as he is willing, I will do my best to prevent him from being wronged."
"Take good care of your body. Xingshu will cry because he misses you. He has grown up and has a good memory. How could he forget you?"
Shen Feiqiao talked with Shao He for a long time, his eyes and ears were sharp, even if there were people coming and going in the corridor, he could still tell the difference.
Shen Feiqiao helped Shao He up, let him drink some water, and pushed open the door of the ward.
Outside the door, Shao Xingshu happily held up a registration form, and shouted at the surprised Shen Feiqiao and Shao He in the ward.
"I decided to participate in Tianlai! When I win the championship, I will let that superpower who can fulfill all wishes make Grandpa get better! Live a long life!"
In the corridor of the hospital, the doctor who treated Shao He looked blankly at the busy traffic outside.
The nurse next to him called him several times before he could react.
"You said, did I do something wrong?" the doctor asked.
"What's wrong?" The nurse hurried the doctor to see the next patient.
