Rebirth of MC Chapter 196

The streets on the bottom of the Jade Void Mountain were bustling: children's happy laugh, vendors' shouts and pedestrians' chatting were intertwined together. Long Zhanye led Huo Zaiyuan on the street alley by hand, shaking off those people following behind them very easily, Lu Rong and Xu Ruoming.

"Zé, so annoying. Disappointedly following us is one of its kind" Long Zhanye hummed with a look of despise. He then lowered his head to look at Huo Zaiyuan in his arms and slowly said: "Darling, you truly can attract mosquitoes and flies. It seems that from now on I have to watch closer" pff, something has sneaked in again {this sentence… what does it mean??? 噗，好像又有什么东西混进去了}

'Attracting mosquitoes and flies'… Huo Zaiyuan's mouth twitched. He ferociously glared at him: "Why are you saying this, that Xu Ruoming was provoked by you!" Heng, the idea of beating him was nerve-wracking: "Idiot! Misunderstanding what! I only treat Lu Rong as a senior brother, nothing more…" Huo Zaiyuan said. On his face appeared a faint blush {note1…}: "When I was younger I couldn't understand. But now I have grown up… my heart is small, enough for you. If another person was stuffed in, then it would be too forced" Huo Zaiyuan abruptly expressed himself clearly.

{note1…: missing part 羽翦轻垂}

Long Zhanye was moved, he hugged him very tightly: "I know, because you can only be mine. Even if there could be another person in you heart, I have some ways to eliminate him"

"Hehe, very rare to see… you wouldn't have confidence in yourself" Huo Zaiyuan laughed and kissed on his {Lzy} cheek and then led him over the street outside the alley.

"I'm not kidding"

"I know you are very serious" Huo Zaiyuan smiled: "That… such an excellent man like you, Zhanye… How could I like someone else?" finished saying, his small ears reddened, obviously because he felt bashful.

Long Zhanye's face reddened too, he hugged that person who made his heart miss a beat for love. His mouth got closer and kissed those sweet lips.

This was Huo Zaiyuan's first time strolling the market from when he left the Taoist Sect, therefore he was extremely interested towards many things. Glancing at this stall, staring at that stall. His face was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with happiness.

Lzy was behind him, looking at that person bouncing vivaciously, he was swayed from his {Hzy} happiness. A pampering glint flashed in his eyes.

This scene… he would never have thought it in the past…

But this simple and warm scene… they have gone through two worlds, he and Huo Zaiyuan have just come together thus he absolutely wouldn't destroy it… No matter the price, this time, he will properly take care of him.

"Doctor! I beg you! I beg you! Save my child!!!!" suddenly, from the front came the suffering voice of a woman, arousing Huo Zaiyuan and Long Zhanye's attention. The two gazes followed the sound of weeping and they saw a woman full of tears holding a child in her bosom and kneeling on the ground. She was kowtowing before an uncle wearing common middle aged clothes, her forehead was heavily leaning on the ground, she already knocked till some blood flowed out. All around there were many people pointing and discussing.

"Madam, it isn't because I don't agree to treat your child, rather… this child's condition… I suppose that elixirs aren't effective" that middle aged doctor felt embarra.s.sed, and then lightly shook his head.

"No! It can't be! Doctor, you are someone who helps people! How can you not be able to save my child! I beg you! Save my child! If you want money, just say it! My husband has money, I will pay you! I beg you!, save my child!" and again, she knocked her forehead on the ground.

"She is Ming Caizhu's wife…"

"Didn't she give birth to a child for Ming Caizhu. How did this happen?"

"I heard that the child madam Ming has given birth to is evil. Up to now he hasn't cried, made noise and laughed. Always silent like a blockhead. And some people said that he is an idiot. Ming Caizhu even invited the most outstanding doctors and they were all helpless. And because the birth was difficult, madam Ming became infertile. The elder madam Ming was very enraged and forced Ming Caizhu to take a new wife"

"Madam Ming and Ming Caizhu have always loved each other, how could…"

"So what? Madam Ming's child is an idiot. How can the Ming family tolerate this kind of child…"

"That's right!"

There were all sorts of comments within the crowd. Long Zhanye and Huo Zaiyuan heard everybody's speech. Huo Zaiyuan looked at that madam Ming kneeling on the ground seeking for help: "She… is so pitiful. Zhanye, you have a lot of experience, why don't you take a look at that child"

Long Zhanye glanced at Huo Zaiyuan, smiled and the nodded: "Alright, let's take a look" he didn't know the art of healing, but since Huo Zaiyuan said to go, then he will go to see. If he could help this child, then he could win the beauty's heart. If he couldn't do anything, he wouldn't be at loss either.

The two crossed the crowd and arrived at the madam's side. When Huo Zaiyuan saw the dull expression of the child in madam Ming's bosom, a low cry escaped from his mouth. And Long Zhanye's face was astonished. He then squat down and untied the brocade used to wrap up the child.

"You…!" madam Ming was very surprised by the sudden appearance of those two youngsters.

After finis.h.i.+ng examining the child, Long Zhanye said with a grave expression: "Madam, this doctor indeed can't cure your child, is it possible to go somewhere else to talk?"

Madam Ming looked at Long Zhanye and then Huo Zaiyuan. After a short period of contemplation, she slightly bit her lips and then nodded as if she determined something: "Yes, let's go to the Ming Huang {Phoenix} guest house ahead of us"

"Let's go" Long Zhanye nodded his head too.

Huo Zaiyuan supported madam Ming with his hands and then they walked in the Ming Huang guest house.

Ming Huang guest house was the Ming family's property. Madam Ming took the two people in a private room. When she wanted to order the most sumptuous food from the waiter, she was stopped by Huo Zaiyuan.

"Madam, we aren't hungry. Your son's problem is more important"

"Dear guests… you… do you perhaps know how to treat my child? Please help me! I don't care if my husband needs maids or concubines, I want my child to grow healthily, nothing more!… no matter how much money you want, everything is okay… just please cure my child!" she kneeled down.

"Madam… don't… please sit down" Huo Zaiyuan promptly reacted. This pitiful woman was already covered by scars on her forehead, he was moved.

This was a mother-son situation, this kind of maternal love was really great…

"Madam, when you were giving birth to the child, did something unusual happen?" Long Zhanye was sitting next to madam Ming, he raised the teapot and gave a cup of tea to Huo Zaiyuan.

Madam Ming's expression was originally restless. When she heard Long Zhanye's words, she became dumbfounded and then nodded her head: "Yes, yes! Something unusual certainly happened. This child is a premature baby, ten days before an a.s.sa.s.sin sneaked into the Ming household. I was wounded by that a.s.sa.s.sin, I moved and vomited. The child was born earlier than expected… but after a day and night of trying to give birth, the child still didn't come out… a dangerous situation… when I almost lost my life, the child finally was born. Until later, the family realized that the child was abnormal. He won't cry, make noise and laugh… his expression is very lifeless. We searched everywhere for doctors who could help us" madam Ming started to cry again.

"The broken sword {note2}… madam, can I have a look?" Huo Zaiyuan pondered and then asked.

{note 2: eh?}

"Several days ago, my husband recruited a Buddhist/Taoist to drive the evil spirits away from my child. He declared that the broken sword was ominous and wanted to let us discard it… I didn't approve his suggestion at all, so I secretly took the broken sword and hid it in a secret place of the garden. Could you follow me into the Ming household?"

"Might as well, madam, please lead the way" Huo Zaiyuan nodded while smiling.

Madam Ming led Long Zhanye and Huo Zaiyuan into the Ming household. In the garden, in the middle of the flower terrace, they found the broken sword wrapped in a block cloth.

The broken sword was a double edged sword, it didn't have the hilt. Fine lines were craved on the blade. It was a soaring dragon's tail.

"Indeed it's him"

"Zhanye, do you know what is this?" Huo Zaiyuan slowly touched the broken blade, he couldn't understand why, but touching the sword felt very familiar. What a strange feeling.

"This is a legendary celestial sword, it's called — — Yin Liu Ying {silver flowing shadow}. Madam, this isn't an evil sword, but a tool to protect your son"
