Chapter 154 With a clear conscience
Song Yu walked into the room. Qingluo was lying on the bed. When she heard the noise, she turned her head to look.
Song Yu walked over and the light in the room was a little dim.
When Qingluo saw her coming over, she just stared at her without saying a word.
Song Yu took the initiative to speak: "Ye Shuangbai said that your condition will be back to normal in half a month."
Qingluo still didn't say anything. Song Yu put the thing in his hand on the footstool in front of the bed.
She said, "I went out and bought some things, and this is for you."
When Qingluo heard this, her expression finally changed: "I really don't understand you."
Song Yu smiled when he heard her speak: "When we have time later, we can slowly understand each other."
"Aren't you worried that I'll kill you after I recover?" Qingluo asked her.
Song Yu was surprised: "Ah? You still want to kill me? Didn't we agree on this?"
"What did we agree on?" Qingluo interrupted her: "There's no conflict between me living and killing you."
Song Yu sighed and said, "If you really wanted to kill me, why did you tell me and give me a chance to defend myself?"
Qingluo turned her head away and stopped looking at her.
Seeing this, Song Yu said no more.
The two of them stayed there quietly, and the room was also very quiet, with only the occasional sounds of insects and birds coming from outside the window.
Suddenly, Qingluo turned around and looked at Song Yu with a malicious smile, but it was fleeting and seemed to be an illusion.
"Do you know why Ye Shuangbai is called the ghost doctor?" Qingluo asked.
Song Yu became excited: "You know?"
Qingluo said, "Everyone in the world knows it, it's even stranger that you don't know it."
Song Yu pursed her lips. She really didn't know. There was no detailed description in the book. It only said that he had a strange temper and great medical skills.
Qingluo said: "Since you want to know, and he won't tell you, then I will tell you."
Obviously, she heard the conversation between Ye Shuangbai and Song Yu outside the door.
"What's the reason?" Song Yu asked.
Ye Shuangbai said: "Because he killed his wife with his own hands for the sake of medical skills, and cut open her stomach, it was extremely bloody. This was witnessed by many of his fellow villagers and neighbors.
His bloody hands stirred in his wife's belly, his face looked mad and he looked like an evil ghost, hence the name "Ghost Doctor".
After Qingluo finished speaking, she stared closely at Song Yu's reaction. She thought she would see fear and disgust on Song Yu's face.
After all, she is just a young girl who knows nothing about the world. She is kind-hearted because she has not seen too much ugliness in the world.
It's normal to be afraid of such a horrific thing.
After Song Yu heard this, his expression changed, but it was not because of fear, but confusion.
She was silent for a long time, and just when Qingluo was wondering if she was scared silly.
Finally, I heard her speak: "Why did he do that?"
"What?" Qingluo didn't react for a moment.
Then he said, "He is obsessed with medicine and has become a demon. Otherwise, why would he be called a ghost doctor? Therefore, no matter how high his medical skills are, he is not liked by the world."
Song Yu said, "Maybe there's something else going on."
Qingluo listened to Song Yu's reaction, sneered, and said, "What? You want to save him too? If the bad guys in this world knew there was a person like you, they would probably be overjoyed."
"Ah?" Song Yu didn't quite understand the meaning of his last sentence.
Qingluo said: "Because you will go to save them."
Song Yu heard the sarcasm in Qingluo's mouth and said helplessly, "There is a distinction between good and evil in the world. Good can be hypocritical, and evil can also be unjust. Look at Ye Xu and Qingling, aren't they two good examples?
If you are poor, you can take care of yourself; if you are rich, you can help the world.
I don’t want to save the world from all evil, nor do I have the ability to do so. It’s just that you and Ye Shuangbai are people I know.
I just hope you all have a good ending. I am doing my own thing and have no regrets."
Qingluo looked at Song Yu, her face slightly stunned. Song Yu's expression was calm, and her words seemed to come from the bottom of her heart.
This woman, whose origins are unknown and whose identity is questionable, always has an aura about her that makes people want to get close to her.
How happy must her life be to have the confidence to say those words?
A feeling of jealousy rose faintly in Qingluo's heart. Why is this world so unfair? Some people are born with good lives.
Some people are destined to suffer half their lives.
Song Yu left Qingluo's yard and returned to his own yard.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw Qingling standing in the middle of the house.
Qing Ling looked at her and asked, "Why did you take so long? Didn't you just go take a look?"
Song Yu said, "Yes, I originally wanted to just take a look, but then we chatted for a while. What are you doing here? Why don't you go back to your own yard to rest?"
Qingling was a little unhappy when he saw Song Yu chase him away as soon as he arrived, but he still held it back.
He said, "In one more day, I will go into seclusion."
"Retreat?"
"Well, Ye Shuangbai is going to help me deal with the problem of true qi," Qingling said.
"Oh, how many days will you stay in seclusion?" Song Yu asked.
"Seven days." Qing Ling said directly.
Song Yu said, "It's been so long, isn't there another way? Find someone with profound inner strength to escort you. Isn't there such a person in the Qingyang Sect?"
Qing Ling said: "Yes, but that can only stabilize the Qi in my body, and it cannot restore it to its original state."
Song Yu asked, "What do you mean by restored to its original state?"
Qing Ling said: "Peak moment."
Song Yu immediately said: "Then you cooperate with Ye Shuangbai well, I will wait for you to come out."
Qing Ling said: "It will take seven days in total. Do you want to come with me?"
Song Yu said, "I'll come too? Will it disturb you?"
"No." Qingling said.
Song Yu asked, "If I go, will Ye Shuangbai agree?"
As a doctor, I understand very well that when I am treating patients and saving lives, having irrelevant people around me will only be a hindrance.
"He agrees." Qingling said immediately.
"That's fine, as long as the doctor doesn't object." Song Yu said.
"Okay, this is for you." Qingling took out a jewelry box from behind him and handed it to Song Yu.
"What is this?" Song Yu asked in confusion.
Qingling signaled her to open it with his eyes, and Song Yu opened the jewelry box hesitantly.
A jade pendant that was completely white appeared before his eyes.
A poppy is carved into the jade pendant. The poppy blossoms appear vivid against the white jade, their petals delicate and moist, as if drenched in morning dew. Though devoid of any pigment, the flower appears elegant and captivating against the backdrop of the white jade.
I picked it up and turned it over. On the back was engraved the character "虞" (Yu), written in a simple, elegant style with smooth, natural strokes. Each stroke betrayed the carver's exquisite craftsmanship, echoing the poppy blossoms on the front. The white jade was delicate and flawless, emitting a soft glow as the light reflected it.
"What a beautiful jade pendant." Song Yu exclaimed.
This jade pendant is warm to the touch, delicate and smooth, and is definitely not an ordinary item.
"When did you buy it?" Song Yu asked.
It's obvious that this jade pendant is meticulously designed and carved, and even has her name engraved on it. It must not have been bought casually.
