Now that we know the key, there is only one last question left.
Uncle Zhao was afraid that after he told Zhao Lei about the place, he would forget his wealth and covet the place.
A lonely old man and a naive child couldn't resist Zhao Lei, a strong man.
I'm afraid that not only will my grandson's disease not be cured, but my grandson's life will also be affected.
Zhao Lei traveled all over the country by himself. If he was as harmless as he had shown before, he would have been eaten by others without leaving any bones.
You must not have the intention of harming others, and you must not have the intention of guarding against others.
Only those who have the ability dare to wander out alone in this troubled world.
If I tell Zhao Lei what happened, I don't know whether it will be a blessing or a curse.
Now Mr. Zhao is extremely entangled. If he doesn't tell Zhao Lei, his grandson may not be able to save his life. If he tells Zhao Lei, he and his grandson may not be able to save their lives either.
Extending one's head is a sword, and shrinking one's head is also a sword.
But there is no time to hesitate now. His grandson may be gone at some point, and time is of the essence now.
Zhao Lei watched Old Uncle Zhao's troubled expression and waited quietly. He knew that Old Uncle Zhao must be hiding a huge secret.
But because he can't trust himself, and he can cure Zhao Lin's disease, he is struggling now.
If he interrupts rashly, it may have the opposite effect. As long as Zhao Lin continues to lie on the bed, Zhao Lei doesn't believe it, and Uncle Zhao doesn't speak. This is related to Uncle Zhao's own grandson's life.
To be honest, even if Mr. Zhao considers wasting time here, he will only lose his grandson's life.
It has nothing to do with Zhao Lei. They just met by chance. If he hadn't happened to meet those two baskets of wild vegetables, Zhao Lei would not have anything to do with them at all.
If Mr. Zhao thinks about it here for too long, Zhao Lin will not be able to endure it anymore and will be gone.
Then Zhao Lei has no choice but to be tough. Even if Granny Hei is driven to pieces by then, he will get the secret from Uncle Zhao.
Of course, if Mr. Zhao was wise and told the place himself, Zhao Lei would definitely not take advantage of it in vain.
When the time comes, he will cut out more chalcedony, get a large bowl of water for Old Uncle Zhao to drink, and let him live for a few more years, and then raise Zhao Lin.
Don't think that Zhao Lei is stingy. If a treasure that can prolong life is placed outside, it will knock the brains out of those dignitaries and heroes.
Fortunately, Uncle Zhao did not hesitate for too long. He finally made a decision. For the life of his grandson, he was willing to tell Zhao Lei this secret.
His grandson has passed away and he is no longer alive. If he tells Zhao Lei the secret, he still has a chance to save his grandson.
In the end, whether the two of them can survive depends entirely on Zhao Lei's thoughts.
Zhao Lei is not a cold-blooded person. He is willing to be a good person as long as he does not harm his own interests.
Then Mr. Zhao told Zhao Lei the whole thing from beginning to end.
After saying that, Uncle Zhao relieved his anger. He had done everything he should do, and everything that happened next was entirely up to Zhao Lei.
He looked at Zhao Lei nervously, trying to read his thoughts from his expression.
After listening to what Uncle Zhao said, Zhao Lei said directly without thinking too much:
"Uncle Zhao, I know what you are worried about, but don't worry, although I love money, I have a bottom line in doing things. I will definitely help you cure your grandson.
I will not burn bridges. After you take me to that place, I will prepare the medicine and give it to you.
Then stay there for a while, during which time I want you to just stay at home and not tell anyone else about it.
Not everyone has a kind heart like mine. You orphans and old people are just a piece of fat in other people's mouths.
When you are in the valley, just pretend that I don't exist. Then I will leave on my own and you can continue to lead your grandson to live a good life.
Whether you believe me or not, I have put my words here anyway. Fairness is reflected in equal strength. You two have no money to negotiate terms with me, so you can only believe me now. "
"Now that the young master has spoken out, I won't hide the little old man. I am really afraid that when the young master arrives in the valley, he will kill us and his grandson.
But if you are willing to make a promise, sir, then I will believe you. Now the lives of our grandfather and grandson are in your hands. If you go back on your word, I will never let you go. "
After the words fell, the room instantly became quiet. Zhao Lei was not angry because of what Old Man Zhao said. No matter how much he said, it was all empty talk. He would naturally understand it when he got to the valley.
Uncle Zhao saw that Zhao Lei did not have any impatience because of his last words, as if he had punched cotton with his fist, so he said no more.
He took out the cooked porridge and filled a bowl for each person. Although the porridge was very thin, it had some wild vegetables mixed in and the aroma was very rich.
After the two of them finished eating, Zhao Lei followed Mr. Zhao out.
The two of them were unusually quiet on the road, with only the sound of footsteps echoing. There was warmth in Zhao Lei's belly that spread around his body, warming his body. He thought it must be the wild vegetable that had the effect.
Although I only drank a bowl of gruel, I felt extremely full and full of energy.
Uncle Zhao originally lived at the foot of the mountain, so Zhao Lei soon followed him into the mountain.
The trees in the mountains are tangled and criss-crossed, blocking the wrath of the sun. As soon as you enter the mountains, it feels much cooler.
Uncle Zhao took Zhao Lei around in the mountain, either crawling through the bushes or walking along the cliffs.
"Snapped!"
Zhao Lei killed the mosquito that was lying on his neck sucking blood.
Now there is no exposed skin on his body that has not been bitten by mosquitoes, and the places where he has been bitten are extremely itchy.
Without the nourishment of chalcedony, Zhao Lei can only carry it on now.
If it weren't for the fact that Mr. Zhao had the life gate in his hands, Zhao Lei would have suspected that he was deliberately bringing him here to feed mosquitoes.
These mosquitoes were completely different from those outside, they were really powerful, especially after Zhao Lei came to a swamp, he saw a dark cloud on the edge, and the buzzing sound was like thunder.
But in Zhao Lei's eyes, those dark clouds were clearly swarms of thumb-sized mosquitoes. Even though he was half a cultivator, he was still startled.
Zhao Lei didn't know what kind of luck Mr. Zhao had to follow a hare to the valley safely.
Uncle Zhao took Zhao Lei around that place. What was strange was that the mosquito swarm, facing the two prey with no prey, did not chase them out of the swamp. Instead, they wandered around the edge of the swamp.
Then they walked up a stream, climbed over a mountain, and saw the valley at the bottom of the mountain.
