Chapter 379 - Warmth
Feng Jinhuan raised his lips to a desolate smile, the light in his eyes became increasingly dimmer, and a pair of small hands suddenly grabbed Feng Shijiu's sleeves. He was abandoned by his parents in this life, and he was careful and calculating in everything, but in the end he could not escape the fate of death.
"Little brother, I just realized that there is warmth in my life, but this warmth came a little late. If I die, you will bury me deeper so that I can report to the underworld as soon as possible and ask the King of Hell for a next life without fear. Then I..."
Before he could finish his words, the pair of small hands that were grabbing Feng Shijiu's sleeves slowly slid to the ground, and the little head tilted, and there was no more breath.
"You coward...you weakling..." Feng Shijiu's eyes turned red as he hugged Feng Jinhuan's gradually losing temperature body. Did this brat really think that he, Feng Shijiu, was stupid? How could a person's body become so weak for no reason?
The first few times he came, he saw Huan'er hiding in a corner and secretly chewing herbs, and he realized something was wrong. After that, every time he came, he found that Huan'er's body was much weaker. Later, he secretly took those herbs back to the Imperial Hospital for inquiries, and the result was that Huan'er was committing chronic suicide.
"Don't be sad, Master Feng. Perhaps this is a relief for him."
At some point the old doctor walked up behind Feng Shijiu, handed him a letter, and then sighed, "This child is very miserable. Although his room is far from mine, I can still hear the sound of him banging his head against the wall every night. Who can say that this result is definitely a bad one?"
Unfolding the envelope, Shijiu read it word by word. Tears accumulated in his eyes more and more, and he couldn't help but let them slide down his cheeks and drip onto the letter paper. His heart was filled with huge waves. He only did such a small thing but he didn't know that it had become a special warmth in Huan'er's life.
Feng Shijiu leaned over and picked up the cold little body. He turned to the old doctor behind him and said, "Grandpa Doctor, you are a rare talent with a kind heart. If you have any ideas, you can directly take this token to the Imperial Hospital to take up a position. Someone will arrange it for you when the time comes."
It was not until Feng Shijiu disappeared in front of the clinic with Feng Jinhuan in her arms that the old doctor looked at the token in his hand in disbelief. His heart almost jumped out of his chest. If he had heard correctly, the place the young master introduced was the Imperial Hospital!
"Grandpa, what is the Imperial Hospital?" the little granddaughter asked innocently, looking up.
The old doctor rubbed her hair lovingly and said softly, "The Imperial Hospital is the place most people who study medicine yearn for. There are the best medicinal materials and thousands of medical books. It is the place that grandpa dreamed of going to in his life. I didn't expect that it would come true in the end."
Although the little granddaughter didn't quite understand, she started laughing when she saw her grandfather's smiling face.
Feng Shijiu carried Feng Jinhuan and walked for a long way in the city but couldn't find the burial place they wanted. In the end, they went around in circles and ended up back at the same place. The old doctor at the door was so scared that he almost dropped the dustpan in his hand.
"Mr. Feng, what are you doing..."
"Grandpa Doctor, where do you think the deceased should be buried so that they can be reincarnated the fastest?" Feng Shijiu murmured.
"I am not satisfied with you, Master Feng. I am not very knowledgeable about Feng Shui and dare not speak rashly. However, most of the children who died before adulthood will be buried by their families on the Soul-Breaking Mountain not far from the suburbs. I heard that the yin energy there is very heavy and it is the first place where the soul-grabbing ghosts arrive."
Hearing what the old doctor said, Feng Shijiu's eyes flickered. He hurriedly bought a horse from nearby and galloped towards the Soul-Breaking Mountain with Feng Jinhuan's body.
He must arrive before dark, so that Huan'er can be reincarnated tonight.
