Chapter 118 Barry Bright Moon
"Uncle, how long has Auntie been sick?"
Fang Bai asked casually.
"It's been more than ten years... Fang Bai, haven't you bought anything yet? Or, let Mingyue accompany you to the nearby department store?"
Mingyue's father seems to be very taboo about discussing Mingyue's mother's illness with strangers, and pulls the topic away with a smile.
The "piranha" poison has not died for more than ten years, indicating that some special drugs have suppressed the spread of the poison.
However, although this method can prolong the life of the patient, it can cure the symptoms but not the root cause, and the backlash effect will be great in the future.
Once the poison in the body accumulates to a certain level, it will suddenly erupt. At that time, the poisoned person's skin will turn black, and black blood will flow out of the seven orifices, and they will die in extreme pain and death.
Presumably Mingyue's parents have never found a way to detoxify, and can only rely on certain drugs to suppress the toxicity, and it's a day's delay.
Seeing that Mingyue's father didn't want to say more, Fang Bai didn't ask any more. After chatting with their family of three a few short words from the parents, under the leadership of Mingyue, they went to the nearby department store to buy things.
On the way to the department store, Fang Bai passed through Mingyue's mouth and learned that their family's surname is Chou, his father's name is Qiu Zhan, and his mother's name is Qiu Yuzhi.
For some reason, Fang Bai always had an intuition, that is, Qiu Zhan and Qiu Yuzhi both had a kind of mystery in their bodies.
Not to mention Qiu Zhan, he is a martial artist even more powerful than Fang Bai.
And although Qiu Yuzhi was poisoned, weak and inconvenient to move, Fang Bai dared to conclude that if it wasn't for the strange poison, she should also be a martial artist, and her strength would not be much weaker than her husband's.
Fang Bai speculated that the Qiu Zhan family should have lived in seclusion here, and they should have lived here for many years, and have completely integrated into the life here.
There are usually two reasons for martial artists to live in seclusion. One is that they are used to living a bustling and noisy life and want to find a quiet place to cultivate themselves; the other is to avoid their enemies.
Judging from the enemy's situation, the latter is more likely.
Fang Bai even suspected that Qiu Zhan's family did not necessarily have the surname Qiu.
It stands to reason that a reclusive martial artist should like quietness and would not easily rent out his house, but when Fang Bai saw Qiu Yuzhi, he understood some reasons.
Qiu Yuzhi had a strange poison in his body, and he needed to prepare medicinal materials to suppress the toxicity, and those medicinal materials must not be cheap. Over the years, the Qiu family was financially strapped and had to rent out the house in exchange for some income.
Originally, Qiu Zhan was a master, and there were some ways to make money, but if their family was hiding from the enemy, it was too late to hide behind them, so how could they dare to reveal it easily?
Mingyue studied at Yanjing No. 16 Middle School. After the summer vacation, she will be promoted to the third grade of high school. Although Fang Bai didn't talk much with her, she has already figured out her general character.
Mingyue is an independent and rebellious girl. She is bold and loyal. It is said that there are many students who like her in school, but there are also many who have conflicts with her.
Mingyue likes to fight injustice, and she likes to stand out when she sees someone being bullied in school, but she has learned a little self-defense from her father since she was a child. The title of "Little Witch on Campus".
In the Yanjing Sixteenth Middle School, Mingyue is not ranked at all when it comes to money, but when it comes to appearance, Mingyue is definitely the first. girl.
Of course, if she wears some light makeup, like today, with a light smoky makeup and a little blush, she will be bubbling beautifully, and she can throw the second most beautiful girl in the school out of Bajo Street.
However, even though Mingyue was beautiful, no boy dared to look at her, let alone chase her.
Because Mingyue's character is very irritable, if others disagree with each other, she may move her mouth and make a few noises, but she directly moves her feet.
It is said that a boy was beaten into a pig's head by her because he looked at her a few times and whistled a few words to her. After returning home, his parents couldn't recognize him.
Therefore, no boys dare to touch such thorny flowers. They are afraid that if they are not careful, they will be stabbed with blood.
Fang Bai made a harmless joke with Mingyue along the way, and she glared a few times, threatening to beat Fang Bai.
If it was replaced by a boy who knew Mingyue's character, his face would definitely turn pale due to Mingyue's threat, but Fang Bai just laughed.
Although this little girl has learned a little kung fu from her parents, she doesn't even have true essence in the sea of anger, indicating that she has not yet entered the hall, and is not a warrior. Fang Bai can put her clean up obediently with one finger.
The department store has everything from refrigerators, color TVs, and toothpaste to toothbrushes.
Accompanied by Mingyue, Fang Bai walked around the market and bought some toiletries and bedding.
When the shopping was done, it was already dusk. Fang Bai was carrying several large and small bags, and Mingyue also took two for him. The two walked out of the department store together.
"You must be tired and hungry after walking with me for so long? To express my gratitude to you, I invite you to dinner!"
At the door of the department store, Fang Bai smiled and said to Mingyue when he smelled the fragrance from a ramen restaurant.
"Have you brought your cell phone? Lend it to me. I'll call my dad and ask you to have dinner."
Mingyue is a bold personality and likes to make friends. She and Fang Bai walked and chatted all the way, and felt that the big boy could talk more easily. Fang Bai wanted to invite her to dinner, and she was not polite.
Fang Bai freed his right hand, took out the phone and handed it to Mingyue.
"Yeah, it's still a fruit phone! Fang Bai, what does your family do? It seems to be very rich!"
Mingyue took Fang Bai's mobile phone, first called his father at home, hung up the phone, looked at the phone carefully, and then stared at Fang Bai and asked.
Fang Bai scratched his head and said, "It's not worth having money. Anyway, you can eat and wear warmly! Our family is a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners. My father is an old Chinese medicine doctor. There is a Chinese medicine clinic in Zhongzhou."
Mingyue's eyes lit up and she asked eagerly, "Is your father's medical skills excellent?"
"To be honest... my father's medical skills are not as good as mine."
"Ugh……"
Mingyue was instantly discouraged.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing Mingyue's listless appearance, Fang Bai said oddly.
Mingyue sighed and said: "My mother has been ill for more than ten years, and she can't be cured. In the past two years, her condition seems to have gotten worse. If your father's medical skills are good, I would like to invite him over to see my mother. What. As a result..."
Fang Bai smiled and said, "As a result, you were disappointed when you heard that my father's medical skills were not as good as mine, weren't you?"
Mingyue nodded and said, "Yes. You are still an intern at a medical school. If you want to come here, your medical skills will not be very good. Your father is not even as good as you, even more so."
After a pause, without waiting for Fang Bai to speak, he turned and walked towards the ramen restaurant, and said, "Let's eat. After eating, I have to go home, otherwise my parents will be worried again."
