C19

The little river was not far from their home. Without the Fire Fox's pursuit, Tian Cheng could only walk slowly. Besides, he didn't have the strength to run now. If he met any more Magical Beast, then he would be out of luck. His back was still bleeding, but seeing the large majority of the bag of Five Leaves Blue Heart Grass in his hands, Tian Cheng was so excited that he forgot all the pain.

"All of this is worth it." This was the only thought he had after escaping from death.

It was almost midnight, and from the moment Tian Cheng entered the mountain, the old man at home had been waiting in front of us. At the start, he could still calmly sit on the chair and wait, but he had slowly flung the chair to the side, walking back and forth at home. Then, he walked out of the house, and shook his old body under the night sky. The night here was very cold, but the old man's body was sweating more and more, and unknowingly, scenes of Tian Cheng being killed by the Magical Beast surfaced in his mind one after another. He started to feel apprehensive, trying his best to tell himself that all of this was not true, that his own grandson had great ability, and he would not die. But he simply could not believe himself, his heartbeat kept on speeding up; he started to repent, why he, despite knowing about the dangers of Magical Beast Forest, did not stop his grandson; he started to blame himself, why he was so useless, and handed everything over to his young, immature grandson; he started to sob, and slowly started to wail. This was the saddest time in his life, when his son died, he only silently shed a few tears, but now ? He didn't know that all of this was happening in his heart. His grandson was trying his best to return.

Tian Cheng painstakingly trained until he finally got home. He felt that this test was definitely the most tiring one, it was at least ten times more tiring than the previous tests. Seeing that the lights in the house were still on, Tian Cheng loosened up all of his taut nerves, and immediately became weak. When he reached the door of his house, he saw a white-haired old man kneeling in pain. It was his grandfather. His thin body was bent over and his bone-like hands were tightly grasping the dirt on the ground. Looking at this scene, he instantly understood that Tian Cheng's heart was instantly stung and the tears at the corner of his eyes could not help but flow down.

"Grandfather!" Tian Cheng also kneeled on the ground and screamed at the top of his lungs.

The old man suddenly stopped crying. He raised his head and saw that familiar voice and that delicate and pretty face. It was none other than his grandson.

Ah!" The old man hugged Tian Cheng and ruthlessly knocked on his back a few times. This time, his tears were even more painful, and he did not realize that his back was so heavily injured.

Tian Cheng could not help but shout out. This moment was too precious to him, the pain in his body seemed weak in front of his love, it was not even worth mentioning.

After a long while, both of their crying stopped, only then did the old man release his hands, seeing Tian Cheng's pale face, he immediately realised that something was wrong, at the moment, a sticky feeling was coming from his hands, the old man opened up his hands, the blood on his hands, his expression immediately became anxious, and quickly looked at his grandson. Tian Cheng smiled at the old man and directly fell into his grandfather's embrace. He no longer had any strength left to support his body.

At this time, the frail and frail old man seemed to have obtained some strength from somewhere, he picked up Tian Cheng and quickly put him on the bed, speaking anxiously: "Child, don't be anxious! Now that we have money, Grandpa will go find the Light Mage.

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, Tian Cheng grabbed onto the old man's hand and said weakly: "Grandfather, don't look for the Mage, it might be too late by then." Although he hadn't tried out light magic before, he knew that if he didn't treat his wounds in time, if he got infected by bacteria, even if light magic healed him, it would still leave behind many hidden dangers. Furthermore, with his grandfather's physique, by the time he rushed to the city, he would not be able to do anything, and Tian Cheng would probably die too. Besides, he still had his own secret weapon! Tian Cheng continued: "Grandfather believes in me, I have a way to cure myself."

The old man didn't hesitate at all as he turned around and returned to the bedside. Although he didn't know the reason behind his grandson's words, the old man knew that his grandson had a lot of strange but very useful ideas in his mind. This time, the old man didn't hesitate and chose to believe his grandson.

Squatting next to Tian Cheng, the old man anxiously asked: "Child, quickly tell grandfather, what should I do?"

Seeing the old man believe himself like this, a smile appeared on Tian Cheng's pale face. While enduring the pain on his back, Tian Cheng trembled and said, "Grandfather, go get a large pot of boiling water first. He had basic medical knowledge about cleaning wounds and disinfecting them with salt water. The crystals here and the salt on Earth, although the salt here may not contain iodine.

Hearing Tian Cheng's words, the old man started to move immediately. He was already an old man in his late years, his speed could not be discerned at all. Soon, the old man brought the water over and set it aside.

Tian Cheng also told the old man to pour the large box of herbs he had collected this afternoon in front of him and pointed to a few eight of them. These were the precious herbs he had found during the day to treat burns, so he picked more of them. According to what his grandson said, he picked up the "weeds". Although the old man was a little confused, he still listened carefully to Tian Cheng's instructions. After selecting a few herbs from the pile, the old man took them out and took a moment to mash them into juice.

Tian Cheng laid on the bed, trying hard not to let it fall. Every time he realized that he was about to fall asleep, he swung his hand and grabbed onto the wound on his back. After a few more times, Tian Cheng finally decided to wait for grandfather. He knew that if he slept like this, he might never get up again.

When he entered the room again, the old man was holding a bowl of thick green grass juice in his hand. Seeing that there were a few more bright red wounds on Tian Cheng's back, the old man knew what had happened. The corner of his mouth twitched a little, and without looking any further, he asked Tian Cheng: "Child, what should Grandfather do next?"

"Grandfather, find a clean cloth and wash the wound with salt water."

"Clean cloth?" The old man directly arrived in front of a wooden cabinet, opened it, and took out a brand-new set of clothes. He began to tear it up, and soon enough, the clothes were torn into many pieces. Tian Cheng felt a sharp pain in his heart as he looked at the old man's actions. He knew that that piece of clothes was Grandfather's most precious item, he had never allowed himself to touch it before. After all these years, he had never seen the old man wearing it, and he would even take it out to wash once in a while. But this time, he tore it apart without thinking.

The old man used a cloth to moisten the water that was still hot on his wound, and washed it bit by bit. He was afraid that he would hurt Tian Cheng, but that kind of gentleness couldn't even be compared to a gentle girl. Tian Cheng lowered his head, and his tears continuously dripped down. It was not because of the pain in his back, but because of their family love. Having lived for two lifetimes, when had he ever felt such love? At this moment, he was moved once again.

Soon, a large basin of salt water was dyed red-black, but not a single drop of blood flowed onto the bed sheets. The old man only needed half an hour to wash the water. Tian Cheng's whole back was dyed red, there was not a single piece of skin left, and some parts of his flesh were burnt off, after being cleansed, it revealed the shadow of a white bone.

Without waiting for Tian Cheng to speak, the old man smeared the grass juice all over his wounds. All the horrifying wounds were buried under the green light.

I've signed the contract, please recommend me!
