People in Xumi: I am really not the Dragon King

Chapter 133 Bai Zhu's Wish for Immortality

"Boom——"

A dull thunder was heard, and with the accumulation of water vapor, the originally bright weather changed quietly without anyone noticing.

The blue of the sky was gradually swallowed up by the thick gray, a damp smell filled the air, the leaves rustled in the wind, and there was a bit of coolness in late autumn.

"cough cough cough cough"

A young man with green hair and wearing a green and white coat, carrying a medicine basket on his back, couldn't help coughing as if he had caught a cold.

He casually took out a pill from his pocket and swallowed it with warm water. After standing still for a moment, the young man let out a sigh and opened his golden-orange eyes.

These eyes are very strange. Although this person is a human, his pupils are as slender as those of a snake. In addition to his friendly temperament, they add a bit of mystery.

"Ah, it was sunny this morning, why is it cloudy now? If you get caught in the rain, you will probably have to stay in bed for another two days."

The white snake on the young man's shoulder circled around him twice, opened its red eyes, and said helplessly.

"Changsheng, don't say that."

The young man looked up at the sky. He was not surprised that the white snake could speak. He explained:

"It's best when it's cloudy. If it's sunny, Qiqi will be exposed to the sun for too long and will inevitably suffer some unnecessary damage."

"The last time she broke into the Hillock people's camp, she stood by the fire for too long. After she came back, she was listless for a while."

"——As for my health, if anything goes wrong, don't I still have you? It's not the first time I've caught a cold anyway."

He shook his head, obviously not thinking that the rainy day was a bad thing.

"Alas, Baishu, Baishu, why are all of you so stubborn? You are all like this, you only think about others and never think about yourself."

"If you continue like this, and your body breaks down, there may not be anyone willing to take that little guy in."

The white snake stuck out its tongue, somewhat helpless towards its contractor.

"Heh, I didn't take Qiqi in out of kindness. If something goes wrong with the 'research subject', isn't it normal for the 'observer' to be a little worried? I will never do business at a loss..."

Before Bai Zhu could finish his words, he was interrupted by Changsheng.

"——You are just being stubborn. Over the years, you have gone to the General Affairs Department many times to ask for help in finding Qiqi. Every time she suddenly wanted to eat something, you were more proactive than anyone else. Last time, in order to find that 'coconut milk', you asked several groups of people to transport it from other countries."

While helping Bai Zhu to regulate his body, Changsheng unceremoniously mocked this good-natured guy in front of him who always wanted to act sinister.

"."

Bai Zhu was silent for a moment, shook his head, and then continued:

"No matter what, Qiqi is an indispensable part of my plan. For my own sake, I can't let anything happen to her."

Bai Zhu did not give a direct answer, but mentioned his own goal.

"Really? I'm so pissed! You guys are just not honest. How come you're even more devious than a snake like me?"

"Hmph, I'm going to sleep." Looking at Changsheng who was throwing a tantrum on his shoulder, Bai Zhu couldn't help laughing:
"You are a legendary immortal, how come you become like an ordinary child when you are in my hands?"

"When I took the vow, you were not as lively as you are now, Master."

Changsheng instantly perked up after hearing this:

"Hey, I think your sect's oath should have been thrown away long ago. Look at what it says - if someone comes to ask for help due to illness, you are not allowed to ask about their status or wealth, nor are you allowed to look ahead or behind and worry about good or bad luck. When you see someone in distress, treat it as if it were your own."

"Isn't it just to put everything behind you and think only about the patient?!"

"If you keep doing this, who will die short if not yours?"

"I am a snake fairy who can prolong my life. My "Snake-Drag-Dragon Method" is a rare and authentic method in the world. But in your hands, you have made me look like a demon that swallows people's lives. My good reputation has been ruined."

Thinking of the short-lived fate of Bai Zhu's lineage generation after generation since the signing of the "Ear Snake and Dragon Dragging Law", Changsheng felt helpless towards these guys who knew that the road ahead was death but still rushed forward.

It is obvious that they only choose to save patients within their capabilities, and are powerless to help those patients whose death is approaching and for whom conventional methods have failed.

Then under my own conditioning, I can actually live much longer than the average person.
“Don’t blame yourself.”

"I have never regretted accepting the "Ear Snake and Dragon Method". Although the doctor himself is also among the world's people, there is no reason to be born to sacrifice for others."

"——But if it weren't for you and Qiqi, how could I achieve my goal of immortality?"

Even though he had transferred too many toxins and diseases into his body while saving patients over the years, according to common sense, it had reached the point where there was no cure.

But Bai Zhu never regretted his decision. He still had a smile on his face and never showed any sadness, as if he really regarded this fatal contract as an "opportunity".

"You are so greedy. You are unwilling to give up saving others, and saving yourself is also one of your goals. While seeking immortality, you are not even willing to cause any harm to the 'experimental subject'."

"You want everything, but it's easy to get nothing. Don't blame me for not reminding you."

"Anyway, if you die, I won't continue to 'harm people'. I'll just go back to Chenyu Valley and have a good sleep. Isn't that good enough to never wake up again?"

The white snake stuck out its tongue, shrank back onto the young man's shoulder, and said no more.

“Harming people”?

You are not harming anyone, this is just a choice we made.

Baizhu shook his head and did not agree with Changsheng's evaluation of himself.

——After all, if there is a life worth saving in front of me, and I happen to know how to save it, why shouldn’t I save it?
Following the unique scent of the medicine bag he left on Qiqi, Changsheng pointed out the direction for Bai Zhu to move forward.

On the eve of the heavy rain, the young man, who was already a little tired, finally found the purpose of his trip.

But he was relieved and was about to go forward and "rescue" Qiqi according to the "magic" taught by the immortal.

But I found that the little guy, who should have been trapped in a vicious circle, was surprisingly normal at this moment.

——In front of a black-haired, black-eyed boy, there was a sea of ​​blooming flowers.
The little zombie who had gone out to collect herbs and had not yet returned was now running freely in the incredibly beautiful sea of ​​flowers, collecting precious herbs that were rarely seen in normal days with shining eyes.
