I want to live, get married

"Uh-huh……"

The effects of the medicine wore off gradually, and Ma Langzhong slowly woke up from his lethargy.

I just feel that my whole body is in pain like a frame falling apart.

Especially the right wrist was in severe pain like piercing bone, and the throat was as dry as if it was stuck together, and it was difficult to swallow saliva.

I tried to move my body, but found that apart from the pain, I couldn't even move a finger.

He could only pant heavily and moan in pain, but he couldn't do anything else.

"Oops...it hurts...um..."

"Ouch..."

A weak humming sound awakened the drowsy Liu'er who had been guarding the side of the bed.

He shivered, and immediately got up to investigate Ma Langzhong's situation.

"Master...Master...how are you doing!"

He eagerly whispered to Ma Langzhong's ear, stretched out his hand and sniffed, and found that there were indeed signs of waking up.

So, excitedly, he shouted towards the hall: "Miss Liu... Miss Liu, my master seems to be awake, come and take a look!"

The people waiting in the hall of the medical hall heard the sound.

The first to bear the brunt was Liu Yanhan.

She came straight to the bed, and without saying a word, she opened Ma Langzhong's upper and lower eyelids and checked his pupils.

Sure enough, the properties of the medicine had dissipated, and people began to wake up slowly.

She stretched out three fingers to put on Ma Langzhong's wrist, carefully examining his pulse.

After confirming everything was safe, Fang said, "The pulse is stable, Senior Ma is fine."

"Great!" Hearing what Liu Yanhan said, Liu'er's heart was completely settled down.

"Hmm...thirsty...water..."

At this time, Ma Langzhong's entire face was twitching in pain, his chapped lips opened and closed, as if he could not speak, and an indistinct raving came from his throat.

Liu'er approached Ma Langzhong again, leaned against his ear and asked, "Master, what's wrong with you, are you thirsty?"

"Thirsty... water..."

In Ma Langzhong's throat, "huchihuchi" came out in pain.

The meticulous Liu Yanhan had already poured a glass of warm water from the table beside him, and handed it carefully to Liu'er.

He asked: "Your master has been in a coma for a long time, and he must be very hungry and thirsty at the moment, so quickly feed him some water!"

"Alas..." Liu'er responded, and swiftly took the teacup from Liu Yanhan.

Gao Cheng and He Qingqing, who were watching from the sidelines, also helped Ma Langzhong, who couldn't move, to sit up from the bed and immobilized him.

"Master, open your mouth and drink some water..." Liu'er carefully brought the tea cup in his hand to Ma Langzhong's lips with one hand, and supported his shaking head with the other.

When Ma Langzhong's chapped and dry mouth touched the side of the teacup, it was as if he was pulling at straws, and his whole body instantly became refreshed.

Regardless of the many, "Gudong, Gudong..." Ru Niu began to drink wildly.

"Liu'er, be careful, don't let your master drink too fast, it won't be good if you choke your lungs." Liu Yanhan instructed thoughtfully from the side.

"Alas...", Liu'er agreed, "Master, slow down, slow down..." He patted his master's back carefully with one hand.

Ma Langzhong finally recovered after drinking a bowl of hot water.

He originally thought that he had already met Lord Yan, but when he woke up this time, he opened his drowsy old eyes, and found that there were familiar scenery and familiar faces in front of him.

I couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, pulled my hoarse and rough voice, and managed to exclaim: "Oh... I... I'm not dead!"

Seeing her master wandering around the gate of hell and finally turned the corner, and finally spoke, Liu'er's aggrieved and scared emotions finally couldn't hold back.

His eyes suddenly turned red. Originally, he had a good face in front of so many people, so he tried not to shed tears.

But the tears at this moment are like a flood that has broken the embankment, pouring down uncontrollably, he sobbed fiercely: "Master...Master, you finally woke up..."

"Hurry up... don't say anything about whether you are dead or not, it's unlucky."

While wiping away tears, Liu'er pointed at the people beside the bed and told his master.

"This time... this time, thanks to the presence of Ms. Liu, Ms. He, and Mr. Gao, they rescued you in time, otherwise... otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable..."

"Woo, woo, woo..." As he spoke, Liu'er was so wronged and sad that he burst into tears.

"..."

Ma Langzhong looked at the people who were visiting him in front of the bed in a daze, his mind was in chaos for a while, and he didn't know what happened during the time he was unconscious.

Seeing his master's bewildered expression, Liu'er hurriedly told him all the causes and consequences of what happened in the past two days: "It's like this, master..."

"..."

"..."

After listening to his little apprentice and talking about it for a long time, Ma Langzhong finally figured it out.

Why did He and Liu come to Xinggang Town; why did the two girls' families conceal their true identities.

How did Gao Cheng rescue Xue Ye by accident, and how did Liu Yanhan perform spells for him to connect his severed hand afterward.

Ma Langzhong said in a hoarse voice weakly, "It turns out...it turned out to be like this, please...please help me, old man...I'm ashamed of myself!"

As she said that, two lines of old tears flowed down from her yellow eyes, and she lay on the bed, looking old and pitiful.

"Senior Ma, you are injured, don't get too emotional..." Seeing him crying pitifully, Liu Yanhan rushed forward to persuade him.

Gao Cheng saw it, and also echoed: ""Yes!Don't cry when you're old, this escape from the dead is considered a blessing in misfortune, you should be happy. "

"Woo, woo, woo..." He sobbed in pain, and it took him a long time to stop his tears.

Seeing that people's emotions finally calmed down, He Qingqing finally asked: "Senior Ma, you almost lost your life when you went to the gambling house this time. Did something happen to you? Otherwise, how could you end up in such a state? I hope you are old I can tell you everything in detail.”

"me……"

Ma Langzhong hesitated for a moment, and then slowly said: "Yesterday, Miss He set up an iron-clad general Fengshui bureau in the medical hall, and the old man went straight to the western suburbs gambling house with the "blood veil" that can restrain evil spirits... ..."

"This method is really effective. Originally, I won smoothly all the way without encountering any defeats. After a while, I have already won a lot of money..."

"Not only have I earned back all the fields and old houses that have been exported in the past few years, but I even have a slight surplus..."

"Cough, cough, cough..." As he spoke, he coughed and panted a few times because of his lack of strength.

"Master..." Liu'er worriedly stretched out his hand to pat him on the back.

Seeing that Ma Langzhong had just woken up from a serious injury, and his physical strength was not good, Liu Yanhan said bluntly: "Forget it, Senior Ma, you should take a good rest, and talk about it when you have something to say."

"Hmm...cough cough cough..." There was another breathless panting.

Some things are more uncomfortable to hold in your heart, so he waved his hand weakly, indicating that he was fine: "It's okay, let me finish my sentence..."

"Old man... the more I gamble, the higher I get. Seeing that I am winning more and more money, my heart! I can't bear to gamble for a while..."

"Later, it was getting closer to midnight. I originally remembered what you told me, Miss He, and wanted to withdraw from the game, but I thought it would be fine to stay for a while longer..."

"Well... Then..." He Qingqing questioned while listening.

"Later...do you still remember the dice player in the casino?" Ma Langzhong asked.

"Well... remember..." He Qingqing nodded.

"Miss Liu and I went to the casino the other day. We met when we were looking for you. It's the man with the flower arms... He was born white and fat, with a smiling face."

"It was the man with the flower arm who found me and invited me to play a game of "Desperate Life and Death"..." Ma Langzhong, who had experienced the front line of life and death, began to calmly narrate to everyone what he had experienced in the black gambling house.

"He told me that this game of life and death is that the casino bets on all the tickets in circulation, while the blockers need to use their lives as bets..."

"They really gambled on Jue Ming's game of life and death!" He Qingqing thought to himself, the situation was similar to what she had guessed.

"Originally, this kind of fatal thing, the old man can't do it..." Ma Langzhong continued to talk in a weak voice.

"I originally... just evaded and said that life and death are a big deal, and I can't help it. I just want to gamble a small amount of money for fun..."

"However, I really can't stand the instigation of those people in the gambling house. The man with the flower arm told me that it's okay not to gamble with your life. You can also enter a life-and-death situation if you use the hands, feet and other parts of your body as gambling chips... er ...cough, cough, cough..."

As he spoke, he coughed again out of breath.

"..."

Everyone gathered around the bed, listening carefully to him talking about the unimaginable, bloody and cruel rules in these black gambling houses.

"The old man who received the body, hair and skin, originally tried his best to refuse, but the man had such a cunning tongue that he tricked me around. He said that using the body as a gamble was just a gimmick, but in fact it was just to stir up the atmosphere. In order to stimulate the curiosity, gamblers will make a lot of money for this..."

"He also kept urging me to say, I have the best luck in the game today, and I can make a lot of money if I do it, why don't you take advantage of the good luck to gamble, a rare opportunity in life, and not go forward bravely , Grab it vigorously?"

"And then! Are you really entering the game regardless?" He Qingqing asked.

"I...I..." At this point, Ma Langzhong's face became ashamed.

He said tremblingly, "I... really lost my mind for a while, and plunged into it..."

Leaning on the bed, Ma Langzhong continued to recall sickly: "Later...later, I never expected this game, I actually...lost..."

"Woo, woo, woo..."

Speaking of this matter, he was already wailing and crying.

"Master, just now Miss Liu and I drained your chest cavity for congestion, and now you still have injuries, so don't cry, be careful to stretch the wound later!" Liu'er carefully comforted the sobbing master.

"Oh...my life is so miserable..." Ma Langzhong wiped away his tears and snot.

With a bitter face, he said: "Looking at all the money I won, it was gone all at once. When I realized it, it was already past midnight, and there was no possibility of a comeback. It felt like falling straight into hell." , It’s really worse than death!”

As he spoke, he slapped his aching heart heartbrokenly, regretting the past.

He kept yelling: "I committed my own crimes and suffered the punishment. I didn't listen to Miss He's advice, so I stopped as soon as possible, and ended up with nothing."

If it hurts, it will hurt completely. He Qingqing is not afraid to uncover Ma Lang's scars again, and let him face the cruelty of the black gambling house again.

So he asked directly: "After you always lost, how did the people in the gambling shop treat you?"

"They...they..." Ma Langzhong started to shudder all over as if he had seen something terrible while talking.

The great pain experienced at that time, as if through painful memories, hit Ma Lang like a tide, and the suffocating despair and fear once again overwhelmed him.

With trembling hands, he gestured in the void and said, "They...are evil spirits that eat people without spitting out their bones..."

When he said this, his voice was already shaking like chaff, and his face was not good-looking, but now it was as white as a piece of paper, and even the forehead was covered with a layer of cold sweat due to tension.

Looking at the person in front of him, his face twitched by the oppression of terrible memories, Liu Yanhan couldn't bear to see him suffer.

He said bluntly: "Forget it, Senior Ma, if you don't want to recall, don't want to talk about it, just let it go today and talk about it later when your health is better!"

"Miss Liu..." He Qingqing stopped Liu Yanhan, and shook her head calmly, signaling that she should not be so merciful.

Ma Langzhong had just escaped from death, and was frightened by the atrocities of those villains in the black gambling house.

If you don't take advantage of this time, let him recall a terrible disaster he suffered, let him see clearly the true face of these people who are more terrifying than ghosts, and let him fear them from the bottom of his heart from now on.

Only by scraping the bone and curing the poison in this way, and completely eradicating the cancerous gambling addiction in his heart, can he completely wake up and start a new life, otherwise all previous efforts will be in vain.

Ma Langzhong continued to painfully recall every scene that happened at that time, and because of fear, he even spoke intermittently and ambiguously.

"When... At that time, the vicious thugs in the casino were so scary. They dragged me to a wilderness, and I couldn't help but punch and kick me..."

"I was in pain and fear. I had no strength to resist with an old bone. I could only cry and shout, begging for mercy like a dog..."

"Woo, woo, woo..." he cried as he spoke.

With such a miserable and desolate experience, all bystanders deeply sympathized with his experience.

"But they are a bunch of evil spirits, they don't show any mercy, no matter how much I beg, they won't let me go...

They kept beating until I couldn't cry or yell anymore, and then gradually stopped. "

"I thought that after a beating, I finally escaped a catastrophe. Who knew that this was just the beginning of a nightmare..."

Because he spoke a lot in one breath, Ma Langzhong felt his mouth was dry again, and he swallowed hard.

Liu'er brought the teacup by the desk, and then fed him two more mouthfuls.

"..."

After taking a breath, he continued: "The man with the flower arm who has been watching the excitement, now walked towards me with a face that seemed to be a smile..."

"He took out a sharp dagger from his pocket and waved it in front of my eyes..."

"With a smile on his face, he said with ease that a family has its own laws, and its behavior has its own rules. It was agreed before that if you enter this life-and-death game, if you win, all the gambling money will go to the gambler... If you lose, you will keep your hands." Come down!"

Having said this, Ma Langzhong closed his eyes in pain.

"So... your hand..." After hearing his painful experience, Liu Yanhan asked regretfully, "Did you get it by those villains in the gambling shop?"

"..." Ma Langzhong nodded silently, as a tacit consent.

"That flower-armed man was so ruthless that he raised the knife without hesitation. I was so painful that I passed out all of a sudden. After that, I didn't know anything about it."

Seeing that he finally told what happened, He Qingqing hurriedly asked: "Senior Ma, can you now clearly see the cruel and heartless nature of those gangsters in the black gambling house?

They don't treat gamblers as human beings at all, they are just mermaids. "

"..."

At this moment, Ma Langzhong had nothing to say, and he nodded dejectedly.

"You are so good to think back, these years you have been addicted to gambling and not doing business properly. You were blinded by a greedy word, and eventually your father died and your wife died. Not only did you lose your virtue as a doctor, but you also lost your dignity as a human being. I almost lost my own life, junior dare to ask you, is it worth it? Don't you regret it?"

He Qingqing questioned him from the bottom of his heart, which made Ma Langzhong feel ashamed.

Thinking of all the past, I also regretted it at the beginning, but things are already like this, it is really too late to say anything.

All he could do at this moment was to cry, to hold his head in his arms and cry, as if only the tears gushing out were enough to wash away the guilt and remorse in his heart.

"Master, Master..." Liu'er couldn't bear to see Master in such pain.

"Don't cry, let's change it from now on!

Let's not gamble anymore, Tuer is with you, let's practice medicine, cure diseases and save lives as before, you are still a good doctor, a good doctor loved by everyone!Master"

"Woo, woo, woo..."

As they spoke, the master and apprentice finally hugged each other and cried.
