C21 Your Eyes
The stars were bright and the night breeze was soft. The faint moonlight scattered on the ground as Jiang Xia and Mengyu sat close to each other on the grass.
"Brother Jiang Xia, there are so many stars in the sky!" Mengyu blinked her large eyes and looked at the sky with a face full of smiles.
"Is that so? If only I could see it. " Jiang Xia laughed bitterly at himself.
Mengyu put her long white hand on Jiang Xia's face and said softly, "Brother Jiang Xia, you will see the stars soon."
"Hur hur." Jiang Xia smiled and didn't take Mengyu's words to heart.
"Brother Jiang Xia, can you hold me in your arms?" Then Mengyu shifted her body and leaned into Jiang Xia's arms.
Jiang Xia was surprised for a moment, lightly touched her forehead, and lovingly smiled: "Little girl, since when did you learn to act like a spoiled child?"
"Husband, just hug me!" Indeed, Mengyu rarely flirted with Jiang Xia.
Jiang Xia was completely defeated by her. He opened his arms and hugged Mengyu tightly, making her lie on his lap.
A satisfied and happy smile appeared on Mengyu's face. Her tone turned soft and seemed to carry a trace of sadness. "Husband, if I were to die, what would happen to you?"
Jiang Xia's body trembled. His handsome eyebrows knitted together as he said in a deep voice, "Mengyu, don't joke with me."
"Hee hee, yes, but first answer me!" Mengyu refused to forgive him.
Jiang Xia answered seriously, "If you die, I don't want to live anymore." Mengyu's delicate body trembled slightly as she hugged Jiang Xia tighter. Her soft, boneless body made Jiang Xia's body feel hot and dry.
"Mengyu, you?"
"Hubby." Before Jiang Xia could reply, Mengyu interrupted him, "Husband, if I die in the future, you must survive."
Jiang Xia's silhouette was a bit ruthless, "I already said, I don't like you making jokes like this."
Mengyu seemed to be struggling as she slowly raised her head. Her pretty face was level with Jiang Xia's. Her pure and lively face was lightly pressed against his. Their foreheads were pressed together and their noses touched. Then, their lips met.
Jiang Xia's mind suddenly went blank. Feeling the softness of Mengyu's red lips, he inhaled a light fragrance into his nostrils, then wrapped his arms around the beauty's slim waist and kissed her even harder.
Two streams of tears flowed out of Mengyu's closed eyes. She thought to herself, "Brother Jiang Xia, you must live on." Thinking back to a day ago, Weird Divine Doctor said to himself alone.

"Grandpa, I feel like I can't hold on for much longer. Do you want to cure Brother Jiang Xia's eyes?"
Weird Divine Doctor's expression was solemn and painful, "Mengyu, I've thought of a way."
"Really?" Mengyu's eyes lit up as she looked at him joyfully, "Grandfather, then you can cure Brother Jiang Xia. I want him to see what I look like."
"Mengyu, it's not what you think."
"Then what happened?"
Weird Divine Doctor sighed deeply, "I've found the root of that brat's illness. I found out that his eyes have no soul."
"What soul?" Mengyu frowned and asked doubtfully.
"Everything has a spirit. Only someone with a complete soul can be considered a real person. However, that boy has lifeless eyes, which means he lacks the soul of the eye. That's why he can't see it."
"Can it be cured?"
"Yes, yes, but." Weird Divine Doctor stammered with a strange expression on his face.
"Grandfather, go ahead!"
"His eyes are missing a soul, so he has to find the soul of a living person to make up for it."
Mengyu's delicate body trembled. A moment later, she revealed a satisfied smile on her face, "Grandpa, give my eyes to Brother Jiang Xia!"

The moon was so beautiful that Mengyu fell asleep sweetly in Jiang Xia's arms with a smile on her face. Jiang Xia and Jiang Xia touched their lips as they reminisced about the sweetness of that moment.
Looking at the beauty in his arms, Jiang Xia laughed softly and said, "Mengyu, I've thought it through. Only when you're by my side will I feel happy. In a few days, we'll go back to White Willow Village.
Mengyu rolled over and let out a dream. Jiang Xia's brows twitched as he carefully picked it up and walked inside the house.

Three days later, everything was ready. When Mengyu happily told Jiang Xia that Weird Divine Doctor had a way to cure his eyes, an inexhaustible joy surged from her body and mind.
Mengyu lay down excitedly on the clean and white stage. She held his hand tightly and said, "Mengyu, I'm really looking forward to seeing what you look like."
"Alright, we'll see it soon." Mengyu's gentle smile was reflected in the eyes of the old Godly Doctor. His cloudy old eyes had already turned red.
Jiang Xia took a deep breath to calm himself down, "Grandpa Divine Doctor, hurry up and start!"
"Hmph, what's the rush? I need to feed you some knockout drugs first. " Weird Divine Doctor's voice was choked with sobs. He picked up a bowl of water and passed it to Jiang Xia, "Stinky brat, drink it."
"Oh!" Jiang Xia quickly took it and drank all the water in the bowl.
"Brother Jiang Xia, drink slowly. Stop choking." Mengyu leaned Jiang Xia into her arms and rolled up her sleeves to wipe the water from the corners of her mouth.
Weird Divine Doctor turned his head and wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes. He coldly snorted and said, "Hmph, it's fine if I choke to death, but you have to trouble me."
"Hehe, Grandpa Divine Doctor, as long as you can cure my eyes, I will give you one of my children from Mengyusheng." Jiang Xia's mood was elated and he had already started to blabber. He didn't know that Weird Divine Doctor had the urge to slap him to death.
A trace of sadness flashed through Mengyu's beautiful eyes, but she did not say anything.
After a few breaths, the knockout drug started to take effect. Jiang Xia's consciousness became more and more blurred. His eyelids became heavier and heavier, "Mengyu, I'm going to sleep."
Mengyu's delicate body trembled and lightly kissed Jiang Xia's forehead. Tears couldn't help but fall down. "Brother Jiang Xia, you have to remember me."
"Dreamy, Mengyu!" Jiang Xia's head tilted and he fainted.
"Grandfather, let's begin!"
Weird Divine Doctor was already in tears. His withered arms were trembling. "Mengyu, are you really going to sacrifice so much for this stinking brat?"
Mengyu carefully put Jiang Xiaping on the high platform. Then she also lied on the next high platform. Her beautiful eyes looked at Jiang Xia who was sleeping soundly, while her red lips curved up high.
"Master, we shall meet again in the next life."

When the four seasons bloomed, the Medicine Immortal Valley was filled with tranquility. During a certain period of time, it was filled with cheers and laughter. Happy times were always short, and what was left behind was the sadness after happiness.
Weird Divine Doctor seemed to have not moved for a long time, standing alone in front of a low grave. The grave was lying on a stone tablet, and there were no words on it.
Weird Divine Doctor's old eyes were red, because the person buried in the grave was his granddaughter, not his biological granddaughter, but it was better than his biological granddaughter. "In the future, no obedient child will call me grandpa like you."

Another few days had passed, but there was still no movement from the youth in the room. Was he unable to wake up, or did he not want to wake up?
In the simple and crude room, the handsome youth on the clean bed had his eyes tightly shut. Suddenly, a gentle laughter entered his ears.
"Brother Jiang Xia."
The youth's fingers touched it.
"Hubby."
Jiang Xia's eyelids moved slightly and then he suddenly opened his eyes. It was a bright feeling and his vision was filled with eyes. It was no longer dark. His originally greyish-white pupils became clear and translucent. His pitch-black eyes scanned the surroundings. Everything before him had now become something he had never seen before.
"I saw it. I saw it." Jiang Xia's body started to tremble as he looked through everything in the room with a serious expression, "I saw it, I saw it."
While she was immersed in obtaining light, her eyes did not stop. It was as if she had lost something important, "Mengyu, Mengyu."
Feeling uneasy, Jiang Xia rushed outside like a madman, "Mengyu, Mengyu, where are you?"
When he opened the door, he saw an old man in his seventies or eighties. He had skinny skin and a head full of white hair. He was looking at him coldly.
"Grandpa Divine Doctor, you are Grandpa Divine Doctor right? Where's Mengyu? "Where's Mengyu?" Jiang Xia hurriedly went forward to greet them. After sleeping for more than ten days, he didn't have much strength left in his legs and fell to the ground. He didn't care about that as he crawled towards Wu Tie on his knees, "Where's Mengyu? Where's Mengyu?"

A stone tablet was lying on the ground in front of a low grave. Jiang Xia looked at the low grave with dull eyes. He shook his head and said with a smile, "Grandpa Divine Doctor, are you kidding me?"
Weird Divine Doctor didn't say anything. He took out a letter from his pocket with his skinny hands. Jiang Xia took the letter and opened it with a tremble. After he did so, a dozen lines of delicate and pretty words appeared before his eyes.
"Master, when you see this letter, don't cry, don't cry, don't cry, Mengyu is gone, I can't accompany you anymore, you know I can't bear to part with you, master, I really want to live a normal life with you, taking care of you everyday, giving you children, but Mengyu can't, the world outside is too scary, I really don't trust you to be alone, in the days without me, you must live well. Husband, I really love you, but this is all fate, but you must not disappoint my feelings, you must be strong and live on, your wife can only give you those eyes, I am your eyes, you must cherish them well. In the end, don't think about my appearance. The person you will fall in love with in the future will be me. Mengyu's Absolute Brush! "
= = =.
Jiang Xia was already sobbing. His tears were dripping down the letter in his hand. His chest heaved up and down as he lay on the ground sobbing.
"Ah!" "Mengyu, I don't believe it. I don't believe that you'll just leave me like this." Jiang Xia was like a mad beast that threw itself onto the grave, his hands dug away the fresh soil, and his tears mixed with the dirt and became thicker.
"Mengyu, Mengyu." Jiang Xia tore off a layer of his nails. The sharp pain passed through his fingertips and transmitted to his nerves. However, the most painful thing was the teenager's helpless heart.
A hole has been dug in the soil, Jiang Xia's palm touched the cold coffin. "Ah! No, it's not like that, it's not like that. " Jiang Xia roared like a madman. The facts were already laid out in front of him, and he had no choice but to believe it.
Jiang Xia's facial features twisted together as he bit his lips in order. His muddy palms pounded the ground, "Mengyu, don't leave me. Come back, come back quickly."
"I don't need eyes, I only want you, I don't want anything, I only want you." Jiang Xia's head hit the cold coffin heavily as blood dripped into the ground.
Jiang Xia's body was already weak. With this, he became more exhausted and his voice became deeper. However, the sadness in his voice did not diminish even a little, "Mengyu, I only want you. I only want you."
Weird Divine Doctor looked at them from afar. His old eyes were cloudy and bloodshot. The prejudice towards Jiang Xia in his heart disappeared without a trace. He shook his head and muttered, "Mengyu! This brat is indeed worthy of your love. "
Slowly, Jiang Xia became silent in the mud. His body continuously trembled, and then he sat up, and a vermillion Five-String Lyre appeared in his hands.
His fingers moved, endless sorrow flowed out from his fingertips as tears dripped down onto the zither strings. Jiang Xia's eyes were tightly closed, but the crystal clear tears could not be stopped. It was Mengyu's eyes, but what flowed out was Jiang Xia's pain.
"Boom!"
A clap of thunder exploded in mid-air, and the sky immediately darkened. A torrential downpour came crashing down, as if every sad story would cause a downpour of rain. This was the tears of the heavens.
Jiang Xia was still playing the zither on the spot, just like how Mengyu was beside him. However, his previous tears had always been sweet, but this time, it was salty. The melodious sound of the zither conveyed great sorrow. Ten years of life and death was boundless, and deep feelings for each other filled the entire sky.
In a blink of an eye, three days had passed. Jiang Xia's hands did not stop for a single moment, his tears had already dried. Not a single of his ten fingers were intact, and the flowing bright red color of his five strings dyed them red.
Jiang Xia's long hair floated high in the air, the young man's determined face was as pale as paper, and even his body had become skinny. A faint wave of energy spread out from Jiang Xia's body, and a deep layer of the ground was opened up in front of him.
Weird Divine Doctor had also been here for three days, and a hint of shock appeared in his cloudy old eyes.
"Has this kid reached the fourth level of the zither master?"
