In a private clinic on the outskirts of Edo, there is a hospital bed in front of Zhang Qilu, and there is a little girl lying on the hospital bed.
The little girl was wearing an oxygen mask, her breathing was extremely weak, and her round face was full of energy. Although the little girl seemed to be dying, she still had a pair of cute double buns on her head, which showed how much her family cared for her. It can be said that he did not waste any effort, he could see that her parents loved this little girl like a mountain and a sea.
Zhang Qilu said to the couple beside him, "Have you thought about it carefully? I can save her, but I will take her away after that."
The woman could not help but burst into tears as she looked at her daughter on the bed. Her husband put his arm around her shoulders and rubbed her trembling shoulders with his hand to comfort her.
"Can..." The doctor who looked at the determination hesitated to speak. His eyes were red too.
Wiping away his tears, he continued, "I know, I know everything, but she is the life of our couple."
"You know, your daughter is now being offered a bounty of 500,000 federal coins, and you no longer have the ability to protect her. In fact, if you don't save her and let her die like this, maybe it's not a bad thing. You must think about it carefully. "
When the girl's mother heard this, she could no longer control her emotions. She grabbed Zhang Qilu's hand and said, "That's not okay. My daughter can't die like this. We will do whatever we want. Please save her." "
"You have to know that if you keep her by your side, not only her life, but also your life may be in danger."
After a long sigh, the couple looked at each other. Zhang Qilu could feel the words in these eyes. After a while, they seemed to have made up their minds.
The doctor husband said, "Okay, you can save her, but we hope you can promise to protect our daughter."
Zhang Qilu looked at the couple with firm eyes and said, "Don't worry, I will treat her as my biological sister from now on. As long as I, Zhang Qilu, am still alive, I will protect her throughout my life."
Although Zhang Qilu's oath was not earth-shattering, the sincerity in his words left no room for doubt.
After hearing this, the couple no longer hesitated and said firmly, "Okay then, we will leave our daughter to you. Is there anything else we need to do?"
"I will fall asleep for a period of time after that. If it is short, it will be a few hours. If it is long, it may be ten days and a half. I'm not sure." As he said, Zhang Qilu took out a note from his pocket and handed it to them and said, "You guys make this call." , someone will pick us up. By the way, what’s her name?”
"Li Xiaoxiao." Li Xiaoxiao's mother replied
The only people in the ward now are Li Xiaoxiao on the bed and Zhang Qilu sitting beside the bed.
Zhang Qilu took off the oxygen mask on Li Xiaoxiao's face and put his hand on her forehead. Slowly, all Zhang Qilu's perception of the outside world began to disappear.
A strong sense of dizziness hit him, and Zhang Qilu instantly lost all awareness of his body. Only the endless dizziness made him spin, and the whole world flew into the distance, getting further and further away from his consciousness. In an instant, self-awareness is infinitely enlarged, torn, rubbed, and infinitely reduced.
In an instant, the world rushed towards him again at an extremely fast speed. He began to fall into darkness. There was no direction in the endless darkness. At this moment, everything disappeared and there was only a void. His infinitely small soul seemed to be the only existence in this darkness.
Now he can no longer feel the concept of time, and he doesn't know how much time has passed. A sense of tranquility became stronger and stronger, and Zhang Qilu gradually felt that this was not bad. After having this thought, his consciousness began to slowly dim and began to slowly collapse.
A flash of light suddenly appeared in the darkness ahead, and Zhang Qilu's consciousness seemed to be illuminated and awakened. That flash of light began to grow bigger and bigger. Zhang Qilu turned into a bolt of lightning and flashed away.
This was not the first time he had experienced this kind of thing, but no matter how many times he experienced it, he would still be frightened by the danger. If he was not careful, he might be doomed forever. Zhang Qilu slowly opened his eyes at this moment.
Now there is a door in front of him. This is not the first time he has seen a simple wooden door. This is the closest he has ever been to a wooden door. Looking closely, the wooden doors are dark purple with gray in color, thick and hard. Each of the two doors is inlaid with dozens of copper nails, exuding a sense of solemnity. The doors are dozens of feet tall and you can't even see the side when you look up.
Observing this door at such a close distance, Zhang Qilu felt extremely shocked and insignificant.
He raised his hand and touched the wooden door. The round color and rustic texture. The door knocker might be too high for a child. It should be too high for anyone to touch.
It's impossible to push it, Zhang Qilu thought, but he wanted to try. He put his hands on the door and started to use his feet to exert force. The force was transmitted to his arms little by little. He used all his strength and could even feel it. to the friction between one's own bones.
A clicking sound that seemed to come from far away suddenly shook Zhang Qilu's heartstrings. A certain lock in his heart seemed to have been touched, and some memories that did not belong to him were pried bit by bit. The pried memories kept dripping into his consciousness like water drops, and pictures flashed through his consciousness. .
Something in Zhang Qilu's blood seemed to be released, and a chain began to loosen. Then it tightened again. Zhang Qilu tried hard to pull it. The chain seemed to loosen a little more, and then tightened again. After repeating this process several times, Zhang Qilu suddenly realized that he should not waste time here now. He still has More important things.
Although the door was only pushed open a gap, it was enough for Zhang Qilu, and he walked straight through the door.
His consciousness began to gather again and became brighter. After a moment, Zhang Qilu came back to his senses and slowly opened his eyes. What he saw in front of him was shocking.
Zhang Qilu is now wearing elegant Taoist robes. Standing on a tall tower.
The afterglow of the setting sun shines lightly on the red bricks and green tiles of the pavilion houses. On the bustling streets, pedestrians in colorful clothes from the South City and the North City pass through. Ziwei City and Shangyang Palace are located on the northwest side of the city along the river, with the Luo River flowing through it to the south. Ziwei City is neatly laid out and majestic, while Shangyang Palace is huge in scale and luxurious in architecture.
If you ask about the prosperity and failure of ancient and modern times, please just look at Luoyang City. The grand scene of Luoyang City in the Tang Dynasty is now in front of Zhang Qilu's eyes.
The memory in his current body allows Zhang Qilu to clearly know where to go and what to do at this moment. He closed his eyes and enjoyed the endless power brought by the majestic blood in this body.
I opened my eyes and cheered up my spirits. After a few ups and downs, I had already left Luoyang City and drifted towards the south of the city.
There is a royal hot spring villa in the south of Luoyang City. The villa is surrounded by soldiers with golden helmets. Zhang Qilu knows that these are the Jinwu Guards of the Li Tang family's royal imperial army.
Zhang Qilu gathered his blood and concealed his energy and sneaked into the villa. With his current skills, even the top masters in the world might not be able to detect him, let alone an ordinary warrior in the army.
There are five hot springs in this hot spring mountain from the mountainside to the top, and a palace is built on each hot spring.
Borrowing the heat from the hot springs, the village also has a greenhouse for growing vegetables in all seasons, a straw shed for raising livestock, and a pond for raising fish.
There was only one way up the mountain. Zhang Qilu came to the most luxurious hot spring palace on the top of the mountain. He looked up and saw the word "Taiping" written on the plaque in front of the palace.
At this moment, hundreds of majestic Jinwu guards holding swords, shields, spears, and crossbows suddenly appeared on both sides of the mountain road, surrounding Zhang Qilu.
