Tomb robber: I am the tenth of the nine gates

Chapter 289 Blood Exchange

Yin Xinyue stood up and walked forward, somewhat confused about what they were talking about.

The others looked at the person in coffin No. 83 who looked exactly like Zhang Qishan. What else was there for them not to understand?

Yin Xinyue stopped and for the first time couldn't help showing an expression of shock on her face.

"Qishan?!" Yin Xinyue turned around and found Zhang Qishan sitting right behind her. Then... who was in the coffin? !

Yin Xinyue forced herself to calm down. Seeing that everyone was looking at Chu Ning, she turned her head stiffly and tried her best to ignore "Zhang Qishan" in the coffin.

After a moment's pause, Yin Xinyue didn't know what to do. She just wanted to leave here as soon as possible, so she cleared her throat and got to the point when she spoke again.

"How are we going to save Qishan?"

"Transfusion."

Chu Ning was very calm, and the two words he uttered gently made everyone's heart tremble.

Chu Ning's eyes lost focus for a moment, but it was only a brief moment.

It was so small that it didn't attract any attention, but the people present did not miss it. They focused their attention on Chu Ning.

"I also need a blood transfusion for Master Buddha."

Chu Ning lowered his eyes to glance at the person in the coffin and smiled. Chu Ning's smile seemed to contain a lot, but upon closer inspection, there was nothing.

Everyone thought that Zhang Qishan had given up the idea of ​​using Chu Ning. Even if he still had such thoughts, he changed his mindset after rescuing and getting along with Chu Ning again and again.

But humans are the most difficult animals to guess.

Once you have a tentative mentality, this idea will be planted in your heart like a seed, and will gradually take root, sprout, bloom and bear fruit.

Even if my consciousness tells me that I shouldn't do this, I still follow my heart in my actions.

For a moment, everyone looked at Chu Ning uncontrollably, because after hearing Chu Ning's additional words, they understood everything.

Chu Ning once fed the Buddha his blood, so when changing blood, he also had to give blood to the Buddha, otherwise the blood of Chu Ning remaining in the Buddha's body would be repelled by the blood of "Zhang Qishan" in the coffin.

Everyone present was smart, but at this moment they hated their own overly delicate minds.

This instantaneous reaction is like the sharpest blade at this moment. Every gaze that falls on Chu Ning turns into cruel scars.

Even if the scar is gone, the pain is still felt vividly at that moment.

Among all the people present, Chu Ning was the first one to know Zhang Qishan's true thoughts.

Perhaps it was even earlier - when Chu Ning woke up and told Zhang Qishan that the meteorite jade would harm Zhang Qishan's body, but Zhang Qishan still carried the meteorite jade with him, Chu Ning realized it.

Zhang Qishan joined the game and was willing to gamble with his life.

Bet - Chu Ning will save him at all costs, even when Chu Ning realizes his thoughts and knows all the truth, he will save him without hesitation.

Just because Chu Ning blurted out subconsciously, "protection".

So Zhang Qishan began months of preparation and testing, until - the chess game was set and there was no regret in making the move.

The chess piece of "No Regrets" is Chu Ning, and the chess player is Zhang Qishan, and he deceived everyone, including himself.

Otherwise, why would there be spies arranged by Zhang Qishan in the villages and towns near the Zhang family's ancient residence?

It was just because of the Japanese that the spies were removed, which Zhang Qishan probably did not expect.

There was disbelief in Yin Xinyue's eyes. She took a step back and cried silently.

Qi Tiezui was trembling all over, biting his lower lip hard, and holding Adjutant Zhang's wrist tightly with one hand.

All he could do at this moment was to prevent the close confidants of the Buddha from going and forcing Chu Ning to make a choice.

Adjutant Zhang looked dazed and had a dull expression. He was the person who knew Zhang Qishan best.

As much as Adjutant Zhang admired Zhang Qishan, he felt so conflicted and helpless at this moment.

Zhang Qishan was so deceived by his trust and care for Chu Ning that even he himself was deceived, let alone his adjutant.

Only Er Yuehong raised his hand, and his dry palm covered Chu Ning's eyes.

No matter how horrified and struggling everyone was at this moment, none of them could understand the situation as clearly as Chu Ning, the person involved.

"Go home with the Second Master, okay?"

Er Yuehong gently comforted the child, saying that no matter what choice Chu Ning made, he would always have his support behind him.

Contrary to everyone's expectations, Chu Ning still had a sweet smile on her face and gently pulled Er Yuehong's hand down with one hand.

Turning around, his whole body exuded happiness, "I say~ Master Buddha is saved?

Why do you all look so distraught?"

The figures of several people were reflected in Chu Ning's clear eyes.

Yin Xinyue turned sideways to prevent Chu Ning from seeing her tear-stained face.

Er Yuehong followed Chu Ning's movements and held one of his hands in his palm.

Chu Ning raised his eyes and looked at Er Yuehong.

After a long silence, Er Yuehong finally put on his usual warm smile.

But his voice was somewhat forceful, “After rescuing Master Buddha, come home with me immediately, the girl is still waiting for us.

She...misses you very much."

Chu Ning trembled.

"The Buddha will definitely need me when he wakes up. Second Master said this, but does that mean he will really ignore the Buddha?"

Seeing that Er Yuehong's expression was about to turn cold again, Chu Ning closed his eyes. When he opened them again, a serious look appeared on his childish face.

His gaze shifted from Er Yuehong to Qi Tiezui, Yin Xinyue, and Adjutant Zhang.

The voice was clear, "I know everything."

After saying that, he turned around and walked to Zhang Qishan, wanting to perform a "blood transfusion" ceremony for Zhang Qishan.

Scenes flashed through my mind. Some of these memories were fragmented, while others seemed to have an invisible thread weaving and patching the broken images.

In the end, all Chu Ning had in his mind were the millions of dry bones and rotten flesh, and the pure white souls that even the frozen earth could not bury.

Chu Ning's body suddenly stopped, so he stopped and looked at Zhang Qishan without turning around.

“I’m…not okay.

But, it must be done, and the Buddha must save her."

Chu Ning had no time to care about the reactions of the people behind him. Wasn't the purpose of coming here to make Zhang Qishan recover?

Chu Ning was happy to be Zhang Qishan's chess piece, but there were other emotions in this willingness.

Even if he couldn't get what he wanted in the end, Chu Ning would still try his best. Even if every life would end up like thousands of his own, he would still carry it out without hesitation.
