Chapter 53 A Faint Blush
Upon hearing the commotion, Zheng and Zhao Guangkun, who were walking ahead, immediately turned around to look for Zhao Shengan.
When Madam Zheng saw Zhao Shengan collapse, she was frantic with worry, shaking his body and calling out repeatedly:
"Sheng'an, Sheng'an, wake up!"
Someone nearby shouted, "Make way! Uncle Xiangping is coming!"
The sun is about to set, so it's not very clear now.
In order to better diagnose Zhao Shengan, Zhao Xiangping suggested taking Zhao Shengan home first for further examination.
Upon hearing this, Shen Ming immediately carried the person towards Zhao Shengan's house.
Everyone followed behind, marveling at Shen Ming's strength!
Qian walked over to Zhao Taohua and asked with concern, "Taohua, are you alright?"
She was really scared just now. Zhao Shengan fainted suddenly, but he was about to fall straight into the peach blossoms.
Although Zhao Shengan was not as tall as Shen Ming, if he were to fall, he would definitely hurt Tao Hua.
Zhao Taohua shook her head: "Luckily, I have Brother Shen Ming."
Madam Qian had just seen it too, and she liked Shen Ming as well, since he had saved her daughter Tao Hua many times.
She's a bit older, she's already eighteen this year, four years older than Peach Blossom.
Soon, Shen Ming had taken Zhao Sheng'an home and put him on the bed.
Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly saw Zhao Taohua come in with him, and he immediately stopped in his tracks.
The moment Zheng lit several oil lamps in the room at the same time, he noticed that Zhao Taohua's expression changed.
Zhao Xiangping stepped forward to take Zhao Shengan's pulse, and his expression immediately became serious, making Zheng Shi and Zhao Guangkun, the couple, not dare to breathe.
Zhao Guangkun only had this one son, and he asked:
"Grandpa Xiangping, what's wrong with my Sheng'an?"
Zhao Xiangping raised his finger and placed it on Zhao Shengan's pulse again, very carefully.
After a long pause, he withdrew his finger and said with a heavy expression, "Sheng'an's breath is weak and his pulse is feeble. He's about to die. Quickly prepare for the child's funeral."
what?
"What? Sheng'an is only fifteen, and he's already preparing for his funeral?" The villagers present were all shocked.
Zheng immediately collapsed to the ground, crawled to Zhao Shengan's bedside, and cried out:
"Sheng'an, my son, wake up! Don't leave your mother alone!"
Although Zhao Guangkun did not cry, his eyes were moist.
He grabbed Zhao Xiangping's hand and asked, "Grandpa Xiangping, is there really no other way?"
Grandpa Xiangping was the most skilled doctor in the surrounding villages; he could save anyone who couldn't.
However, he said that it was impossible to save him, absolutely impossible.
Two days ago, Sheng'an came back from town saying he had a headache and was going home to rest for a couple of days. They just assumed he had caught a cold and didn't take it too seriously. Who knew...
If they had known it would turn out this way, they would never have listened to Sheng'an. They should have invited Grandpa Xiangping to see Sheng'an sooner, and maybe the outcome would have been different.
Seeing Aunt Zheng and Uncle Guangkun crying like this, Zhao Taohua felt quite bad.
She stepped forward and said, "Uncle Guangkun, perhaps I have a way. I feel that Brother Sheng'an is being corrupted by blood energy, which is why he is like this."
"Really?" Zhao Guangkun asked excitedly.
"Peach Blossom, do you think there's any hope for my Sheng'an?"
Upon hearing the sound, Zheng excitedly got up from the ground.
Zhao Taohua nodded to the two of them.
Just now, when the oil lamp in the room was lit, she immediately saw that Zhao Shengan's face was covered in blood.
This is the bloodlust born from killing.
Generally speaking, unless it's a major act of violence like killing someone, it won't have a significant impact on a person.
However, Zhao Shengan is clearly not like that.
Therefore, the more pigs Zhao Shengan slaughters, the more blood and qi accumulate in his body, which in turn affects his health.
Just as Zhao Xiangping's great-grandfather said, there's no hope; prepare for the worst.
If she weren't there, Zhao Shengan might have no choice but to wait for death.
She walked up to Zhao Shengan's bedside, raised her right index and middle fingers, and the moment she uttered the incantation, spiritual energy gathered at her fingertips.
She bent down and used her spiritual energy to draw a talisman between Zhao Shengan's eyebrows. In an instant, all the blood energy that Zhao Shengan had accumulated for three years was dispelled!
Although the others did not understand Taoist magic, they could still tell at a glance that Zhao Shengan's complexion was much better after Zhao Taohua cast the spell.
He doesn't look like he was about to die anymore!
Everyone looked at Zhao Taohua in front of the bed and Zhao Shengan on the bed, wondering if Zhao Shengan would wake up.
The person Zhao Xiangping told last time to prepare for his death was Zhao Sanshi. Later, thanks to Tao Hua's magic, he miraculously recovered!
The people in the Zhao family's old house also stood inside watching the commotion, anxiously waiting to see Zhao Sheng'an wake up.
"Um……"
A soft murmur rang out, and everyone looked toward the bed, where they saw that Zhao Shengan had already woken up.
Everyone gasped in astonishment, their mouths agape.
"Peach Blossom is truly amazing. She actually managed to wake Sheng'an up. He was the kind of person Uncle Xiangping said he should prepare for his funeral."
A person nearby reminded him, "Peach Blossom said that Sheng'an was corrupted by blood energy. Just now, Peach Blossom must have helped him expel the blood energy from his body, so he naturally woke up."
Zheng hugged Zhao Sheng'an tightly, crying, "You really scared your mother to death just now!"
Zhao Shengan is her only son. If Zhao Shengan is gone, how will she live?
She's in her thirties, how can she have children at that age?
Zhao Shengan looked at Zheng Shi in confusion. His memory was still that when he was walking home through the wasteland, his head suddenly started to hurt terribly for some reason.
Later, she lost consciousness and had no idea how she ended up in her own bed with so many people in the room!
Madam Zheng explained, "Grandpa Xiangping took your pulse and said you were about to die. Luckily, Peach Blossom was there and saved you. You should thank Peach Blossom quickly."
As Zheng spoke, she walked toward Peach Blossom Finger, who was standing by the bed.
When Zhao Shengan heard that Zhao Taohua had saved him, he smiled sheepishly.
"It turns out that Sister Peach Blossom saved me. Thank you, Sister Peach Blossom."
Zhao Shengan looked at Zhao Taohua's face, and after speaking, a faint blush suddenly appeared on his originally pale face.
Shen Ming, standing in the crowd, noticed the way Zhao Shengan was staring at Zhao Taohua, and for some reason, felt a tightness in his chest.
He turned his head and saw Zhao Taohua smiling beautifully at Zhao Shengan, saying:
"Brother Sheng'an, don't be so polite. The reason you fainted this time is because you've been slaughtering pigs for three years, and the accumulated blood and qi from the pigs has affected your health."
Your body is not suited to be a butcher.
Although I've removed all the past blood and qi from you this time, the accumulation of that blood and qi will still affect your body again whenever you slaughter pigs in the future.
Upon hearing Zhao Taohua's words, Zheng was extremely worried:
"What should we do? Sheng'an has been learning to slaughter pigs from his master for three years and is about to graduate and start his own business."
If Sheng'an didn't slaughter pigs, he wouldn't have a way to make a living!
