Collapse: Black Moonlight Turns White, Popular Four-Star Character

Chapter 133 Dead Wood Hairpin

Next to the attic where the doctor was seeing a doctor, the alchemy furnace was smoking. Yannian first put Yudai down and quickly turned off the mechanism to stop the smoke.

After a click, the white mist in the area gradually dissipated, and the quaint attic emerged.

The air was filled with a faint herbal aroma. Yannian picked up Yudai and walked into the building. In the middle was the treatment area, with a wooden table covered with several sheets of rice paper and medical books.

On the left is the pharmacy and waiting area, and on the right is the inpatient area.

"Where is the medicine?" Yannian shook Yudai gently. "What does it look like?"

"At the pharmacy, by the counter. I remember it was there."

"The package contained a black box. The pills were round and green in color. They smelled bitter, like... skullcap."

“But it tastes very nice in your mouth, like licorice.”

Yudai lowered his head and spoke in a low voice. His words were unclear, his memory began to become confused, and the yellow lines on his body became more pronounced.

"wait for me."

The current situation does not allow Yannian to consider the issue of medicine. He just hopes that Yudai's condition can be temporarily suppressed.

The fox man who had lived for a thousand years had a deal with Dan Shu. Yannian felt more uneasy and had some guesses.

When I stepped into the pharmacy, the room was in a mess. The medicine cabinet was roughly pushed over, broken medicine bottles were scattered on the floor, and all the pills were looted.

It seems that the Medicine King's secret message had infiltrated the Danding Division, and after being publicly exposed, all the important things were taken away.

Yannian frowned, rummaged through the ruins, fished out a black box, opened it, and found it was empty.

There's still the smell of Scutellaria baicalensis left——

“No…” Yannian’s fingertips trembled, and his heart seemed to be deeply covered by cold frost and snow.

How could it not be?

Was it taken away too?

Can Yudai hold on a little longer?

He went directly to find Dan Shu, but according to the plot, he had to wait for Qiong.

"Yan, the medicine... is gone?"

A small shadow appeared at the door, covering Yannian.

Yannian stared intently at the shadow on the ground. Branches and leaves had grown out, covering Yudai's body, making him no different from those inner alchemy practitioners.

"I'm going to find Dan Shu - wait for me." Yannian turned around and saw Yudai's full appearance, his eyes trembling.

"No need...Yuck, cough, I know I don't have time."

"Is this the first fox man to have acquired a demonic body? Without medicine... my mind is going to become unclear again." Yudai sat down against the wall, took off his backpack, took out the photo with his hands full of branches, and looked at it silently.

Yannian clenched his fists, his eyes complicated.

"You know there's something wrong with Dan Shu's medicine."

"I know." Yudai said softly, rubbing the photo with his fingertips, his eyes gentle.

"You know, why would you use it!"

"If you do this...what should I and Qiong say?" Yannian tried hard to suppress his emotions, but in the end, he could only say this.

Because now he is just a person who has nothing to do with Yudai.

Yu Dai was silent for a moment, put the photo down, and looked at Yan Nian. Someone's shadow was shaking in his eyes, and he opened his lips slightly, "I can't find the Vermillion Bird Feather. The remaining soul of the eldest brother can't hold on that long."

"So... I can only place that withered wood hairpin into my flesh and blood, and nurture it with my own body."

"No, I can only live for three or four hundred years... I haven't found the blade yet, I haven't found the Vermillion Bird Feather... I want to live longer, and Dan Shu told me that he can let me live longer."

"--It's longer. The price is just some medicine. I have lived for a long time. Now, the blade is in the Linyuan Mirror." Yudai muttered to himself, a little crazy, and stood up.

The broken mirror next to it reflected a gradually mutated body. Yu Dai glanced sideways, his eyes flickered, and he smiled faintly.

"It's a pity that I... still can't go."

"If the eldest brother saw me like this... he would definitely scold me. I am a craftsman who forges and hunts with a three-foot cold light, but I voluntarily became a monster." Yudai's voice was as thin as a thread.

“But like Ying Xing, I also forged the best work.”

In the dim light, Yannian stood there in a daze. This was something he had never thought of - the withered wood hairpin was inside Yudai's body.

Yannian opened his mouth and couldn't help but take a step forward, wanting to call out those two words, but they were stuck in his throat.

It's like being drowned in the deep sea, unable to make a sound, only dead silence.

The players outside the screen were completely confused. They had no idea what Vermillion Bird Feather and Dead Wood Hairpin were. But looking at Yu Dai's expression, it was obvious that he had been tricked by Dan Shu.

It goes without saying that any medicine that can prolong life is some kind of sorcery. It might even contain some kind of Vajra Marrow.

[Super Love Soft Bread: I don't understand it at all. Forget it, it's better if the little fox man goes offline soon. Yu Mo's companion mission is really boring and long. It's too boring. I just have to watch the PV of the three of them being warm and Ying Xing being bullied.]

"Yan... Can you do me a small favor?" Yudai walked forward tremblingly, not as cheerful as he used to be, and his small body fell into Yannian's arms.

Yannian squatted down numbly, clenched his fingertips tightly, and pinched into the flesh.

The yellowish fallen leaves flew in through the window and landed on Yudai's wrist, like a butterfly, gently kissing his pulse, waiting for the dead tree to revive.

But all this is just fantasy. Yudai will not let himself become a person that the senior brother does not like.

The eldest brother and Ren should be happy when they meet, and it is the joy of reunion.

And he...can't let the eldest brother force a smile anymore.

Perhaps he had already thought of this day.

"Wait a moment, I'll go find Dan Shu, it will be quick." Yannian shook his head and wanted to reach out to touch Yudai's old cheek, but his palm was cut by the overgrown branches and leaves, and black blood flowed down and dripped onto Yudai's clothes.

"It's... the last moment. Can you stay with me for a while?" Yudai looked at Yannian, his cloudy eyes clear in an instant and dim in an instant.

"Disgusting...really, it's just a small thing."

"This broken body, without the blessing of the Medicine Master, cannot complete its evolution like the Inner Alchemist. After a while, it will automatically wither and shatter, like a failure."

"When the time comes, take out the dead wood hairpin from my body and give it to... Blade." Yudai stretched out his hand to touch Yannian's face, but fearing that the thorns would hurt Yannian, he lowered his hand weakly.

Yannian hugged Yudai tightly, even though he was stabbed. His black hair covered his eyes, and his words trembled slightly, "You... are not a failure, at any time."

"I... am not." Yu Dai smiled lightly, "Because the senior brother said -"

"I'm a smart fox man, so... I've always been proud of myself, even though my father always scolds me."

"It's just... I also want to meet my senior brother. I saw the play he performed for Ying Xing... I saw it once, and I'll never forget it."

A fiery red shadow flashed across Yudai's eyes, and the screen magnified it. It was a person singing on the stage, wearing a red robe embroidered with gold thread and a phoenix embroidered on the robe.

He turned his body, his red eyes curved slightly, the corners of his lips raised slightly, with an unruly smile that could capture people's hearts in just a moment.

The players off-screen held their breath.

At this time, the scene switched and finally returned to the beginning of the dream. Outside the Danding Division, Yu Mo punched Ying Xing into the river. Yu Dai and Yu Shuai just groaned, but Yu Mo jumped into the water to rescue them.

With cold words and snobbish remarks, Yu Mo disdainfully sent Ying Xing to Danding Division, and claimed that it was just to bully him better. Yu Dai and Yu Shuai nodded in agreement.

When Ying Xing woke up, the two began to confront each other.

At this time, the video expressed some of Yu Mo's thoughts.

"It can't be exposed yet."

He deliberately took away Ying Xing's homework, but followed him secretly. He found that the boy was borrowing light everywhere, so he lit a lamp and turned into a small Vermilion Bird to guide Ying Xing.

"Is it really that difficult to plant a ray of light through a short life?"

"Where exactly are the limits of the short-lived species—"

Behind the stone pillar, a person with red hair and red eyes had a sad expression. He glanced at Ying Xing who was writing furiously in the courtyard with gentle eyes.

What followed was the playful life in the school. Yu Mo would bring Yu Dai and Yu Shuai to appear at regular times and places, and mock Ying Xing. Ying Xing looked awkward, and looked at Yu Mo with a vague look, as if he was confirming something?

But I'm not sure.

During this period, Teacher Tao Ran, who always laughed at short-lived people, suddenly changed his temperament, treated all the Yingxing equally, and gave them extra subsidies.

Before the subsidy was distributed, Yu Mo secretly took some. As soon as he left, two little fox men secretly stuffed their patrol arrows into Yu Mo's bag.

One day, Tao Ran asked Yu Mo to take charge of the allocation and use of the forging room. Ying Xing hesitated for a long time before going to find Yu Mo.

It was still the same grilled fish stall, Yu Mo couldn’t help but think.

"Big, big brother, I want to apply for the forging room." Ying Xing looked shy.

"You are just a short-lived creature, how dare you deserve it!" Yu Mo sneered, but what he was thinking in his heart was.

"Xiao Yingxing, you finally came to see me. I was so worried."

Ying Xing blushed. He was now 100% sure that he could hear what his senior brother was thinking. Some of the passionate remarks really made him shy.

The two people's thoughts were flying all over the screen, and were known to all the players.

Afterwards, Yu Mo began to find excuses here and there to teach Ying Xing how to forge. Ying Xing gradually got used to being scolded and waited for Yu Mo obediently every day.

Until one day, Yu Mo didn't come, and Teacher Tao Ran said he was very busy recently. Ying Xing was worried and wanted to help. Although Yu Mo was a short-lived person and his time was precious, he also had to know how to repay kindness.

During the apprenticeship assessment a few days later, Ying Xing showed his talent, but was still accused of being short-lived by the workers.

"Ying Xing, believe in yourself, you're doing great."

"Excellent work, Ying Xing. Keep your head up. You deserve praise."

Yu Mo's thoughts and Tao Ran's voice sounded at the same time, making Ying Xing feel warm.

"Why is Big Brother so nice to me?"

"Big Brother, do you treat me as family?"

"In my mind, the eldest brother is my new family." Ying Xing's mind was in a mess. When he saw Yu Mo stroking the heads of the two little fox people, he also wanted to be touched on the head by Yu Mo.

——When will Senior Brother take off his disguise in front of me?

The sudden visit of the delegation and the interference of the power of Sui Yang caused Yu Mo to fall into a coma. Ying Xing went to find his senior brother. The actor on the stage was dancing, with bright eyes and a charming look, but he was just a short-lived person.

A short-lived species?

That is his senior brother.

With a flick of her sleeves, she sang mournfully, "In the rings of the years, I see the grass and trees growing deep again. Under the eaves, the rain falls, but there is no one I know. The memories are mottled, but I am still waiting for the return of my love."

He seemed to understand and asked Sister Bai Heng. Bai Heng wiped her tears and told him, "It's a story about waiting for someone, but in the end, the person didn't get it."

Waited or not?

Ying Xing was puzzled. The actor had already turned gray, but the man didn't show up until the last scene. How could he be considered to have waited for him?

Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Ying Xing secretly helped. He had too many questions to ask his senior brother.

One day, in front of the bright lanterns, Ying Xingwen mustered up the courage to ask Yu Mo three questions. Yu Mo's words were not in line with his heart, which made Ying Xing disappointed and angry. The two of them made a bet of leaving the Industrial Manufacturing Company and parted ways.

The perspective shifts, the crimson curtains sway, the aroma of incense is lingering, Yu Mo sits in front of the mirror, Huai Yan talks to him, and at this time reveals Yu Mo's complete life story, including the price he paid for using the Lihuo.

"Without using Lihuo, I have already reached my limit."
