Fortunate to Have You This Lifetime-Chapter 1487: Plans for the Future

Mr. Ghost Hayes looked puzzled: "You’re not sure? Can it be healed or not?" 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Cherry stroked the cat, feeling very down: "I’m like this now, whether it can be healed doesn’t matter anymore..."

"Oh, how could it not matter?" Mr. Ghost Hayes was anxious, "If you don’t want to heal, you can tell me, I’ll go heal him, and can earn some money!"

She glanced at Mr. Ghost Hayes, pursed her lips, and said, "I really can’t be sure... That thing is very peculiar; it grows along the body’s tendons and veins towards the heart. I guess, once it reaches the heart, it will quickly spread through the veins to the whole body, sucking out all the blood and moisture."

Mr. Ghost Hayes nodded at her words and shared what he knew: "When I went there, several mages had already used exorcism talisman water, slowing down the spreading speed, but the effect was minimal. I’m thinking, since the exorcism talisman water is effective, it means no matter how strange it grows, it counts as a kind of evil energy, right?"

"Yes, I initially thought so too, that absorbing it as evil energy should be fine, but after consuming it several times, it became even more active."

Cherry sighed, speaking softly: "It feels like it’s a kind of plant, the part I consumed is just its branches and leaves, it looks like I made it smaller, but in reality, the stems are still growing and getting more mature... unless the roots are consumed, it’s of no use."

Many plants are like this; trimming the branches and leaves can concentrate nutrients on the main stem, making the plant stronger.

The method Cherry has been using is like cutting leeks, cut one batch, another grows.

She thought of Gavin Graves’ arm, confused yet worried, murmuring: "Actually... there’s another method, but it’s quite risky, I haven’t tried it yet..."

"Ah!" Mr. Ghost Hayes suddenly interrupted, his eyes excitedly saying, "I know how to heal it now!"

Cherry was slightly stunned, her eyes widening.

"Didn’t you say just now, you can eat it smaller?" Mr. Ghost Hayes gestured on his own arm, "For instance, originally at the elbow here, you eat it down to the wrist, then—crunch!"

He was enthusiastic: "Cut off that hand, eliminate future troubles! How about it, isn’t my method particularly good?"

Cherry: "..."

"What’s that expression?" Mr. Ghost Hayes asked.

Cherry was silent, bowed her head and continued stroking the cat, "Nothing..."

With no applause, Mr. Ghost Hayes was a bit disgruntled.

After resting enough by the riverbank, Mr. Ghost Hayes asked Cherry again: "Any plans for the future?"

Cherry shook her head: "Don’t know."

"Why not come back to the ghost village with me." Mr. Ghost Hayes said, "See, now you’re an evil god, and an ownerless one at that, wandering around is not appropriate, seeing you would be like stray dogs spotting a piece of braised pork walking on the street, who wouldn’t crave it? Hey, you know what I mean, right?"

Cherry frowned but said nothing.

Mr. Ghost Hayes continued: "After returning to the ghost village, I’ll help spread the word and find a good buyer for you, guaranteeing you’ll live a life of luxury..."

As he spoke, a flash of insight hit him, and suddenly he beamed with a smile, "Got it!"

Mr. Ghost Hayes stopped talking, circled around Cherry, grinning widely all the while.

His smile, revealing half of a gold tooth, made Cherry feel uneasy, prompting her to ask uncomfortably, "In the end, how is it?"

Mr. Ghost Hayes smiled at her: "We’re not returning to the ghost village, let’s play big; in ancient times, they had martial arts tournaments for marriage, we’ll set up a stage, let all the wealthy and influential stand in front of you, for you to choose! Whoever you want to raise you, let them do so! If someone catches your eye, maybe you can pick an ideal husband!"

After saying this, his smile became even more sleazy, extending three fingers: "After it’s done, just split three parts of the earnings with me."

Cherry, holding the cat, thought for a moment, then nodded: "Okay."
