Chapter 567 Rejuvenation
The village in the southern part of Crescent Island, of course, refers to the small mountain village they newly opened. If they are all fishermen, it is a small fishing village, but there is fertile land for farming, which is good for them. Unfortunately, there was one thing that worried them, and that was this place. It had been deserted for many years. It was said that a disease was prevalent, causing all the people here to disappear, but these were secondary. What Li Kaiyang was most anxious about was to treat Gu Xueying. It is to go to the mountains to find mountain top clouds, a kind of holy water snow, water made from the snow on the top of the mountain. And the one medicinal material it needs more is white turtle shell, which Li Kaiyang can't wait for. He couldn't think of sending the holy water back first, so he urged people to start the boat.
The small boat set up its sails and set sail at full power. Within two days, it reached the south of Moon Island and anchored at the place where they landed on the island. Li Kaiyang gave him another ten taels of silver as promised, and then walked out almost running for a long time before reaching their village.
Sure enough, the village has become much more prosperous now. He was discovered as soon as he entered the village. The villagers who came to the island found him and surrounded him. "Why did you come back? I'm so anxious, you..." My friend, alas, she is not in a good condition now."
Li Kaiyang knew that he had been out for nearly half a year and made the villagers worried. He hurriedly went with the villagers to see Gu Xueying's condition. He also met the little witch and Du Tiezi. He found that the villagers' lives were quite good, and people They all started farming, some fished, and lived a very prosperous life. It was only when Li Kaiyang followed them to the room specially prepared for them that a girl lying on the bed was shocked.
Gu Xueying's face was almost bloodless, thin and sallow, her eyes were lifeless, and she looked like she was dying. Li Kaiyang couldn't help but fell to his knees with a plop. He burst into tears and hugged Gu Xueying. This was his beloved, the one who once Where has this beautiful, kind and wise girl gone now? He couldn't bear the old appearance. He hugged Gu Xueying and shook her hard, hoping that the shaking would make her return to her original appearance, but it didn't work.
Du Tesheng asked him anxiously next to him, "Have you found the cloud on the top of the mountain?"
Li Kaiyang then remembered, turned around and took out the porcelain bottle from his waist. The little witch quickly took it and opened the cork. Asked Li Kaiyang: "Is this the cloud on the top of the mountain?"
Li Kaiyang nodded and said, "Feed her quickly!"
So someone brought a bowl and poured the water into the bowl. The little witch looked at it and said, "Isn't this no different from ordinary water?"
Dutson urged him, "Feed it quickly, don't talk about that yet, try it and see if it has any effect."
Sure enough, the little witch gently put the water on Gu Xueying's lips, and one person lifted his neck and supported his head. In fact, Gu Xueying now needs others to feed her when eating, and her eyes are dull when she opens her eyes. When the water slowly poured into her lips, it seemed that there was really something spiritual about it. Her eyes suddenly widened, and she felt watery and wanted to cry. She took a sip of water into her stomach. It was very disappointing. The change was not big. Of course, the effect of the medicine was not so fast. She vomited again until she had finished drinking half a bowl of water. Gu Xueying didn't seem to have improved much. Everyone was disappointed. Li Kaiyang himself was also extremely disappointed. He looked at Gu Xueying absently and held his hand tightly with his hand. His hand was pale and weak. He was still very disappointed while lying on the bed. Beautiful, like a sickly beauty. The villagers slowly dispersed, leaving only Gu Xueying and Li Kaiyang.
Li Kaiyang didn't want to leave even a step, he wanted to guard her and guard him quietly. Suddenly Gu Xueying spoke, "You... why did you come back? I think you are thinking so hard, I almost can't survive, I am waiting for you."
This sentence shocked Li Kaiyang. He was getting better. Just now, someone said that she hadn't spoken for a long time. It seemed that the water really had an effect on her. Of course, it might be that he saw Li Kaiyang. Only the lover who had longed for her reacted like this. No matter what, she always had a good change.
Li Kaiyang was so happy that he put his hand on his cheek and kissed her gently. He replied to Gu Xueying, "It's not easy. It's hard to explain in words."
At this time, the little witch also walked in. When he heard Gu Xueying speak, he was also very surprised. She kept saying, "It really works. It seems that this water has an effect! Great, great, If he drinks this bottle, he will probably be fine."
His joyful shouts attracted many people to come in and watch. Du Tesheng also came in. They saw Gu Xueying lying with blood on her face. The whole person's facial expressions come alive. These people are like happy events. You patted my shoulder, I patted yours, and everyone laughed.
Li Kaiyang also knew that his trip was not in vain. He turned around and said to everyone: "I have spent nearly half a year worrying about you all." The little witch couldn't help but asked, "You have been gone for too long. We once sent people to look for you, but the road was too difficult and dangerous, and they also reached that place. But I didn’t help you get the mountain top cloud. Because the last section of the road was blocked by ice, they came back. They said that someone had seen you and said that you had gone back, so we have been waiting at home until now. Sure enough, you came back with water. What happened? Tell everyone. "
Li Kaiyang thought it was hard to explain in words, since you want to ask me, just tell me, so he told everyone the situation they encountered. The main reason was that he wanted to find the white turtle shell from the palace, but he Some changes occurred and even Xiaolan was trapped in the palace. At this time, people remembered that there was another girl missing, Xiaolan. People asked if Xiaolan was in danger? Li Kaiyang said: "There is no danger, but he can't leave."
Everyone was sweating for Xiaolan and hoped that Li Kaiyang would rescue her quickly. Li Kaiyang said: "I am coming back mainly to deliver this water. I know that water alone cannot save Gu Xueying, and there is still a lack of white turtle shells." , now letting him drink a little means he has improved, which makes me very happy."
With that said, Gu Xueying suddenly said, "I'm much better. Go and save sister Xiaolan. You must save him. Don't delay. Find the white turtle shell slowly."
Although his voice was still a little weak, his consciousness seemed to have recovered. Everyone was extremely excited. It seemed that the power of the cloud on the mountain was so powerful. Li Kaiyang knelt down and touched her hand again. Unexpectedly, a vivid Gu Xueying appeared in front of him again.
Suddenly someone said, "If he can walk, let him go to rescue Xiaolan with you. Maybe if you walk around outside, he will recover faster, or if you can't find the white turtle shell, you can recover as before." .”
The person who spoke. He was an old villager. Li Kaiyang looked back at him and felt that what he said made sense, but he was very worried about whether Gu Xueying could walk and keep up with him quickly. Gu Xueying heard this recommendation from others. Of course she was very excited. She struggled to sit up and get off the ground. Someone helped him, and he came down as expected. His legs were still shaking a little while standing on the ground, but he endured the pain and said: "I'll go with you. I'll go with you." The thought of going outside to relax has been so uncomfortable for me for the past six months."
When people heard her speak, they were so happy that they couldn't tell. Some people even cheered and clapped. Everyone said it was so amazing, so amazing. He was almost no different from a normal person. In the past six months, he He was so sick that it was like he had lost his soul. People were worried that he wouldn't survive the end of the year, but they didn't expect that a bowl of mountain clouds would really change his life.
The little witch said: "There is still half a bottle of water on the top of the mountain. Maybe it will be better after he drinks up the half bottle."
The next day, Li Kaiyang personally fed him the remaining half bottle of water. After Gu Xueying drank it, she stopped breathing when she spoke. He was served food, which he ate deliciously. And he also started asking Li Kaiyang some questions. Li Kaiyang always held Gu Xueying's hand every time he spoke. He was so excited that he didn't expect the clouds on the top of the mountain to be so magical. If he had known that the clouds on the top of the mountain alone would have such a magical effect, why would he bother to linger there looking for white turtle shells.
Gu Xueying also held his hand and said, "I'll go with you. I'm really suffocating here. Only when I'm with you can I feel alive."
Li Kaiyang also clapped his hand and said: "I agree to take you there, but you need to take care of it first during this period. It won't be enough after just drinking some water. You must have the white turtle shell. You can eat more." "Fine, if you gain physical strength and can run with me, talk, and laugh, then it will be just as good. We can't go anywhere, but don't forget that we still have to go where we want to go."
Gu Xueying's eyes flashed with brilliance at this time, and she also thought of what they were going to do. He stood up and walked around twice, feeling that his legs had gained strength and no longer trembled. Then he jumped twice more and said to Li Kaiyang, "It's amazing. I feel much better, and my mind is much clearer. Now if you see him walking with many people on the road, I would never have imagined that this was a person who was once dying.
It happened to be a banquet in the evening, and everyone was celebrating Li Kaiyang's fate. The little witch presided over everything. He asked people to remove the scales of fresh fish from the sea, cut the internal organs, pierce them with bamboo sticks, roast them on the fire, and coat them with There was a lot of sauce, these fish were very big, there were also shrimps fished from the sea, wild boar meat that someone caught from the mountains, and a few pheasants. These were all foods that they had stored for a long time. They haven't harvested those millets yet, but they brought some silver from the ship and went out to buy a lot of corn, white rice, wheat, and various cereals and pasta, so they are now living very abundantly.
Du Tesheng said to Li Kaiyang: "We don't do anything. With the little money we have, we can live without worries for ten or twenty years. But the villagers say that we are just here to live, not Worrying about food and drink is not normal anymore, so they all do what they can. I manage these silver coins and try not to use them unless absolutely necessary, because everyone is living a normal life now. It’s not like those pirates plundering everywhere. So we have to change our previous way of life.”
In fact, they used to make a living by planting and fishing in the shrunken world, but here they feel that they should live a simple life and the shipload of wealth that the pirates brought them. It really makes them feel like they are thousands of miles ahead of others. But facing these countless coins, they also have times of worry. After all, people cannot have everything. If all worries and worries are gone, not even birth, old age, illness and death, then the meaning of life and the meaning of existence will become a Question, why are you alive and where are you going?
In the evening, everyone held a bonfire party. People ate, drank, and sang and danced. After all, Gu Xueying still felt a little weak, he said to Li Kaiyang. "I feel a lot clearer, but I still don't have an endless supply of energy. I feel a little out of breath and weak after exercising for a while. Sometimes my head also feels dizzy from time to time, like a short circuit. Maybe this is it. The reason for the lack of the white turtle shell, but you believe me, I can follow you like a normal person and look for the last medicinal ingredient, the white turtle shell, with you. After I eat it, I estimate that I can return to my original self.”
At this bonfire party, Li Kaiyang and Gu Xueying were pushed to the middle. People cheered and asked them to dance. The two of them were a little embarrassed, even though their relationship had been established for such a long time and had gone through ups and downs. But the two of them are still a little shy in front of everyone. The little witch couldn't stand it any longer and said, "Just dance a little. Everyone is happy for you. If you don't show off yet, let everyone take a look!"
So Li Kaiyang took Gu Xueying's hand. They slowly walked onto the big stage in the middle, surrounded by singing, flowers and applause. Li Kaiyang took Gu Xueying's hand and opened his arms. Someone played a special musical instrument, someone played it, someone played it, and beautiful music sounded in their ears. The two held hands and swayed to the rhythm. It felt like they were wandering among the flowers, and the two quickly entered a state of selflessness. They felt that they were surrounded by infinite beauty, forgetting whether it was day or night, and felt that the sky was bright. They were on the seaside, on the endless prairie, and beside the river with weeping willows. A breeze blows, the breeze touches their faces, and the two people are bathed in love and passion. They danced heartily. Gu Xueying was a little weak after all. Li Kaiyang was afraid that he would be tired, so he quickly took her hand and returned to his seat. Then he cut off a piece of fatty fish meat and held it in front of Gu Xueying for him to eat. In one mouthful, Gu Xueying ate the whole chunk, and then drank a glass of hot milk that was handed to her. He immediately felt youthful and rejuvenated.
