Put Away Your Divine Techniques Now!-Chapter 836 - 251: Then Don’t Wake Up!
Chapter 251 [Then Don’t Wake Up!] (6000)
Chen Yan stayed in the hospital, ostensibly replacing Lu Sisi as a temporary caretaker for her mother.
However, after Chen Yan waited in the ward for a while, he waited for the nurse to come and change Lu Xiuting’s medicine, pretended to inquire and chatted with the nurse, and confirmed that no other medication was needed today—which meant that if there was nothing wrong, the doctor and nurse probably wouldn’t come by.
First, he used the Qi Observation Skill to carefully peer into Lu Xiuting’s life fate and fortune on the bed.
"Her days are numbered..."
Chen Yan sighed.
By right, according to the Qi Observation Skill, this woman’s lifespan wasn’t exhausted yet. But... her own Essence, Qi, and Spirit had completely collapsed.
A person’s various fortunes are not independent; they complement and affect each other.
For instance, a life of toil appears to fall only within the realm of career and financial fortunes but can often affect a person’s longevity.
Busy and hardworking people tend to have more physical damage, thereby shortening their lifespan, which is understandable.
Whereas those with wealth and status usually have longer lifespans because they have money to live well, take care of their health, and can afford to see a doctor when sick, using the best medical methods—thus, their lifespans naturally become longer.
Of course, extreme exceptions exist.
If you insist on saying that among the wealthy there are those who love extreme sports or indulge in gambling, drugs, and sex... let’s not argue over that.
In Chen Yan’s view, Lu Xiuting’s lifespan isn’t actually expired—if it were, there’d be nothing left to think about or say, and he would just leave.
Extending lifespan doesn’t have any good methods, even for cultivators!
Otherwise, when the old village chief’s lifespan ended, Chen Yan wouldn’t have had to helplessly watch him pass away.
However, Lu Xiuting’s lifespan does still have some time left.
Purely from the perspective of lifespan, she shouldn’t die now; she should have perhaps another ten years or so.
But... her other fortunes were as black as can be!
Career fortune, ruined!
Family fortune, ruined!
Luck, wealth, friendships, essentially all ruined.
Even her marriage fortune was nearly exhausted.
Lu Xiuting now is someone whose various values are almost bottomed out, with only some lifespan fortune left.
But because various fortunes often affect each other, hence Lu Xiuting’s lifespan fortune is also dim and unclear, seeming like it could disperse at any moment.
Chen Yan watched for a while and understood.
It’s actually Lu Xiuting herself who’s in ruins now, her spirit has collapsed.
A person who has lost everything, who has lost all hope.
Lost the will to live.
Thus, after her spirit collapsed, her fortunes counterattacked, and the little remaining lifespan is about to collapse as well.
Chen Yan sighed, quickly took out an elixir, opened Lu Xiuting’s mouth, and pushed it in.
He injected a trace of Primordial Qi, guiding the elixir down from the oral cavity into the esophagus, reaching the stomach.
·
This is a Qingming Pill.
Its effect is simple: it can restore clear consciousness to those on the brink of death, allowing them to speak, walk, and move like ordinary people — but cannot increase lifespan.
This medicine was something he requested from Lin Qingquan back then.
Before the village chief in his hometown passed away, he had used this on the old man, who woke up after taking the medicine, and the symptoms of severe illness and coma disappeared.
Walked swiftly, could drink wine and eat meat.
Considered... a spiritual medicine that lets the dying have one last joyful moment.
After Lu Xiuting took the Qingming Pill, Chen Yan sat on the chair beside the bed, quietly waiting.
A few minutes later, Lu Xiuting suddenly opened her eyes while lying on the bed!
·
"I..." 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦
Lu Xiuting’s lips moved, unexpectedly finding her voice clear and powerful.
With a slight exertion, her body surprisingly struggled to sit up from the bed!
Then, she saw Chen Yan sitting in the chair at the bed’s head, looking at her with a calm expression.
"You..."
"You’re awake? I saved you." Chen Yan said indifferently.
Lu Xiuting’s eyes showed some fear: "I, what happened to me?"
"You are almost dead." Chen Yan shook his head: "That night at our house, you fell into a coma in your dream. Sisi sent you to the hospital for a check-up, and your organs started to fail. The doctors said you didn’t have much time."
"Coma... not much time left..."
Lu Xiuting’s face suddenly turned pale.
Chen Yan unhurriedly opened the bedside cabinet, taking out a stack of inspection papers and diagnosis reports, and handed them to Lu Xiuting.
Lu Xiuting held them, reading, and the more she read, the more her hand trembled.
"I, I, I’m about to, about to die..."
Lu Xiuting stammered.
Chen Yan sighed: "I gave you an elixir, letting you now return to the state of an ordinary person."
"!!!", Lu Xiuting’s eyes lit up, exclaiming: "You, you saved me?!"
"Don’t be too happy—I haven’t exactly saved you." Chen Yan said blandly: "Just temporarily awakened you, temporarily restored you to a normal state, but the effect only lasts a few hours.
Well, it’s enough to leave a last wish or bid farewell to family, and so on.
Originally, the remaining time should keep you mostly in a coma, occasionally waking. Just lying in bed for a period before quietly dying...
Fear flashed in Lu Xiuting’s eyes, she took a deep breath, her voice carrying a slight tremor: "I, I don’t want to die."
Chen Yan laughed, his tone curious, smiled: "Aunt Lu, with those words, how many in this world truly want to die?"
Lu Xiuting pursed her lips looking at Chen Yan, after a while, as if realizing something, a different light flashed in her eyes: "You!! You can save me, right?! Chen Yan! You have a way to save me?!"
