Chapter 506: Still One Step Late
At this moment, the girl with the online name Caterpillar was waiting anxiously in the McDonald's restaurant.
At midnight, there were no customers in the restaurant. The waiters all leaned behind the counter and began to doze off. It was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
At this time, she felt a slight chest tightness and shortness of breath - it was an asthma attack.
This is her old problem. She needs to take medicine to relieve it every time it occurs, otherwise it will become more and more serious. But tonight, she was in a hurry to go out and didn't bring any medicine.
She hurried out of the restaurant and wanted to buy medicine. Unfortunately, the nearby pharmacy was closed at this time. The hospital was a bit far from here, and it would take a long time to get there.
How to do?How to do?
It’s better to go home and get it, and leave immediately after getting the medicine.
Thinking of this, she gritted her teeth, walked quickly into the community, and returned home...
In order to save time, Sang Feiwan and Yu Beiming did not stop in the suburbs this time, but took the risk of stopping on a small road next to the community where the caterpillar lived.
Fortunately, no passers-by were encountered, but a stray dog wandering on the roadside was scared and ran away with a howl.
Sang Feiwan walked quickly forward and said to Yu Beiming, "The girl is full of death and has little vitality. We must hurry."
As they were talking, the two of them arrived outside the community wall.
The wall was more than two meters high, and they jumped into the community with a light leap.
The Caterpillar's home was in the center of the community. They ran as fast as they could and in the blink of an eye they were at the foot of the building.
"Bang!" A loud noise, like thunder in a clear sky, interrupted their progress.
Two meters away, the ground was stained with blood.
The caterpillar appeared before their eyes in an extremely distorted posture. There was no life on its young face, and the fear it had in its wide, round eyes still remained.
More than an hour ago, the girl who had been asking Sang Feiwan for help in the live broadcast room died in front of them.
After all, I was still a step late.
On the way back, Sang Feiwan remained silent.
Yu Beiming followed beside her, flying slowly.
"Everyone has their own destiny. It cannot be forced." Yu Beiming was afraid that she would be sad, so he tried to comfort her.
"I know, but she wasn't born to be short-lived. This wasn't her fate. I wanted to save her, and I should have been able to save her, but I was careless. I should have reminded her to bring medicine."
"Wanwan, you've tried your best. This is not your problem."
"Of course it's not my problem!" Sang Feiwan's tone suddenly turned cold, "I will definitely not let go of the thing in the mirror."
Just now, she and Yu Beiming sneaked into Caterpillar's house to check the mirror.
But after the caterpillar died, the mirror had completely returned to normal, without any evil spirit left.
In order to find out the cause of the caterpillar's death, Sang Feiwan even summoned the caterpillar's soul for questioning.
But the fragile soul, due to the fear and stimulation in her previous life and the confusion of memory, could not communicate at all. Sang Feiwan had no choice but to help her to transcend.
Everything becomes more confusing.
Who planned all this?
What is the purpose of doing this?
I always feel that this is not a coincidence.
When we returned to Jiangyue Villa, the moon was already setting.
As soon as I entered the park, Lao Qiu came to greet me: "Master, you are finally back. I sent you a message, why didn't you reply?"
Yu Beiming asked: "I didn't pay attention. What's wrong?"
"Just after you left, a guest came to your house, an old man with a white beard. He looked quite important and had guards with him."
"I told him you were not here and asked him to come back another day. He refused to leave and said he would wait for you to come back."
Sang Feiwan raised his eyebrows slightly: "Anyone who can come out with guards must be of high status. Bei Ming, is there any trouble?"
Yu Beiming shook his head: "They rarely come to me unless there are problems that cannot be solved by conventional means."
Sang Feiwan said, "I always feel that it might have something to do with me. Do you mind if I go to your house for a cup of tea?"
There was a military vehicle parked in front of Gate 99. The driver was still in the car. When he noticed someone approaching, he immediately became alert.
When Yu Beiming approached, the car door opened immediately and an old man with white hair and beard, wearing a Zhongshan suit, got out.
The guards were about to get off the car, but were stopped by the old man: "Everyone wait in the car, don't act rashly."
Yu Beiming stood under the orange light, glanced at him calmly, and asked Lao Qiu: "Why don't you invite someone in?"
Without waiting for Lao Qiu to reply, the old man hurriedly explained: "I want to wait in the car so as not to disturb your family's rest."
"Come in first."
Zheng Lanxin didn't sleep either and was waiting in the living room.
There was a military vehicle parked downstairs, which made her feel uneasy for some reason.
During this period, she also used her special connections to check the license plate to find out the other party's true identity. Unexpectedly, she couldn't find it at all.
That only means that the other party's status is so high that even the power of capital cannot reach it.
Why did they come to see the Master? Would the Master be in trouble?
Finally, Yu Beiming came back. Zheng Lanxin greeted him with a concerned look on her face, but saw that Sang Feiwan had also come.
And the old man with a mysterious identity also followed in, his face... actually had a hint of nervousness?
"Please sit down. Lao Qiu will make some tea."
With a woman taking care of the family, the life of the master and the apprentice is no longer the same as before.
There are several kinds of tea at home. In Zheng Lanxin's words, "I don't usually use them, but if guests come, it won't be impolite."
"It's been many years since we last met, and you, Mountain Master, haven't changed at all." The old man said, looking slightly excited.
The last time he saw Yu Beiming, he was still a young man just starting out, following his old leader to Shoulong Mountain to meet Yu Beiming.
At that time, Yu Beiming looked to be in his 20s, very young. His face was extremely pale, and he looked like a sickly person.
If the old leader had not been so respectful to him, calling him "Mountain Master" all the time, he would never have believed that the sickly man was actually the hero who was rumored to have turned the tide, eliminated the great demon that had wreaked havoc on China, and restored the dragon veins.
More than half a century has passed, and he has gone from youth to old age.
The man in front of him - Yu Beiming, was still young and handsome, and even no longer as sickly as he used to be.
It turns out that some people can really transcend time, it turns out that there really are god-like beings in this world!
"You have aged a lot. Minister Meng, you have worked hard over the years." Yu Beiming said in a flat tone.
Minister Meng felt a little guilty when he heard this: "Although you left behind some magic to exorcise evil spirits, we are still mortals after all. There are still some difficult problems to deal with, so I have to take the trouble to come and bother you."
