Chapter 362: Chapter 362: Living in a State of Neither Dead nor Alive Chapter 362: Chapter 362: Living in a State of Neither Dead nor Alive She can only choose for Ya Molian to risk his life in the Youxiang River now, rather than watch him die later from the progressive poison.
“This is the Flame Yang-energy Pill, it can resist the cold. The Youxiang River is frozen all year round, with extreme cold. Take the Flame Yang-energy Pill before entering the Youxiang River, but you can not have this pill, you can only use the medicine in the green bottle.”
Ya Molian simply acknowledged, then carefully repacked his bag.
“When are you planning to leave?” Lin Caisang asked.
“After I take you home, I will leave tonight.” Ya Molian replied.
Hearing him, Caisang took a deep breath, her face full of concern, but she could only nod.
“Are you worried about me?”
Seeing her solemn expression, Ya Molian reached up and gently rubbed her head, asking.
“Can I not worry about you? That is Youxiang River.” She quirked her mouth.
How could she not be worried? If she did not bear any burden in her heart, wouldn’t that make her unfeeling and heartless?
“You don’t need to worry, you’ve prepared so many elixir pills for me, I will definitely come back safely.” He chuckled, saying.
“Or why don’t you take me with you?”
After some thought, she clenched her teeth and couldn’t help but look up at him, suggesting.
“Just tell Grandma Qiubo that we are going to find medicine in a place farther away, Grandma Qiubo will agree.”
“You think, even if Grandma Qiubo agrees, will I?” Ya Molian raised an eyebrow, counter-questioning her.
It would be absolutely impossible for him to take such a risk with her, a person who has no martial arts skills, in such a dangerous place.
“You should wait for me at home. If you don’t want to stay at home, just stay in this bamboo house. I’ll be right back.”
What do you mean by ‘right back’? That is a place known to be dangerous, he talks about it so casually, as if the Youxiang River is his backyard.
But she also knew it was impossible for Ya Molian to take her with him.
“Alright, in that case, you must be careful.”
Ya Molian nodded his head.
“Sit for a while, I will get you something to eat, are you hungry?”
She wanted to say that she didn’t feel like eating now, but Ya Molian didn’t give her a chance to speak and directly turned to the kitchen.
She opened her mouth, but didn’t know what to say.
Raising her hand, she covered her nose and mouth, took a deep breath, what a simple country life it used to be. But now, how has she ended up in this predicament? Who the hell put the poison in Ya Molian’s body? He was just a child then. Such a slow-acting poison, how cruel was the perpetrator?!
“That’s it, I must find out the truth.”
She gritted her teeth, looked toward the kitchen, and quickly followed.
In the kitchen, Ya Molian was skillfully cutting up some lean meat. He put it on the cutting board and began to slice it.
Lin Caisang hesitated at the door for a while before she gathered her courage and walked over.
“Brother Molian, who put the poison in your body, have you ever inquired about it?” she asked.
Hearing her, Ya Molian paused his knife, his eyes unfocused for a moment, and only after a long while, continued cutting the meat.
“I’ve looked into it.”
“Who was it? Didn’t they find an antidote?” Lin Caisang asked immediately.
“Heh, antidote? Even if there is one, he won’t give it to me.” Ya Molian chuckled, shaking his head.
It’s easy to wish for someone’s death in this world, but it’s more terrifying to let someone live a life worse than death. And he was just such a person, neither dead nor alive.
