Chapter 199 Gu Yanchuan's Parents
Gu Yanchuan slowly raised his hand and put his glasses on his nose.
It was as if all the strength had been drained from his body. He was so weak that he had difficulty even sitting up straight. He could only lean weakly against the headboard of the bed.
His eyes, which were once bright and lively, now looked dull, but he still tried hard to look at the two anxious people in front of him.
He struggled to pull the corners of his mouth, barely forcing out a faint smile, his voice very soft.
"I really don't know what happened... The only clear memory in my mind is that Yi Siyang suddenly came to me that day and said he could help me solve it..."
Gu Yanchuan paused for a moment, "Oh, by the way! Do you know how Yi Siyang is doing now?"
Hearing this, Shu Wanwan couldn't help but frown, "Yi Siyang? No one told us that Yi Yang was in trouble."
Bai Xuan, who was standing by, remained silent. He lowered his head in thought for a moment before saying, "I'll go to the nurses' station and ask if Yi Siyang is also in this hospital."
"Okay, then I'll trouble you. Please go and come back quickly." Shu Wanwan nodded gently in response.
Then, she gently brought a chair, placed it beside Gu Yanchuan's bed, and sat down carefully.
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Xuan turned around without hesitation and walked out of the ward quickly, leaving Shu Wanwan guarding Gu Yanchuan.
"Can you tell me what's going on now?" Shu Wanwan frowned slightly, staring at Gu Yanchuan, whose face looked slightly pale, and asked softly.
Her soft voice was particularly clear in the quiet ward.
Gu Yanchuan slowly shook his head, his brows knitted together, his face full of confusion: "I really don't know, but I feel... I seem to be entangled by something unclean..."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed tremblingly at the somewhat old clothes hanger in the corner of the ward. There was a set of clothes hanging on it, which should be the clothes he wore before changing into the hospital gown.
Seeing this, Shu Wanwan quickly stood up, walked to the clothes rack, reached out and gently took the clothes off, then turned back to the bed and handed the clothes to Gu Yanchuan.
After Gu Yanchuan took the clothes, his hands kept groping in the pockets of the clothes.
After a long while, he finally took out a small bag from his inner pocket.
This bag is made of Yunjin, an extremely complex and exquisite traditional craft, and looks very beautiful.
Then he handed the bag to Shu Wanwan.
"I usually carry the amulet with me in this bag."
As Gu Yanchuan spoke, he pointed at the brocade bag with a hint of uneasiness in his eyes.
"That day, I suddenly felt an unbearable burning pain all over my body, as if it were on fire."
"So, I quickly reached out and touched it, and it turned out to be the bag containing the amulet."
"After opening it, I discovered that the corners of the previously intact amulet had turned black."
At this point, Gu Yanchuan's eyebrows twisted even tighter.
Shu Wanwan was also shocked when she heard his narration.
Shu Wanwan calmed herself down, then gently opened the brocade bag and looked inside.
However, the scene before her at this moment surprised her.
——There are no traces of burning at all. The entire amulet has turned into a pile of black ashes!
At this moment, Gu Yanchuan paused for a moment, then continued, "After that, I went to look for you several times."
Gu Yanchuan smiled bitterly and said, "Although Bai Xuan and Ye Linfeng both looked calm and composed at the time."
"But don't forget what I do. Controlling emotions and all kinds of subtleties are what I'm best at."
"With my intuition, how could I not sense their true emotions..."
There was a hint of anxiety in his eyes, as if he was recalling the scene at that time.
"I know very well in my heart that you must have encountered something terrible. Otherwise, given their personalities, they would never have that expression."
"When an ordinary person like me can't help, I shouldn't make things worse."
"After much thought, I decided to solve it myself. I went to visit some famous masters in the field, thinking that even if these masters couldn't completely solve the problem, they could at least provide some useful suggestions."
At this point, Gu Yanchuan sighed helplessly, shook his head and smiled bitterly, "However, what I never expected was that I approached several masters one after another, but each one of them avoided me and refused to even show their faces."
Shu Wanwan was in disbelief. She looked at Gu Yanchuan and asked, "How could this be...why wouldn't these masters see you?"
Gu Yanchuan frowned, hesitating to speak, and pondered for a moment, "I don't know the specific reason, but I feel that all this is too strange."
Shu Wanwan still looked at Gu Yanchuan, "I have already felt the source of the black energy just now. It is not a difficult problem to solve."
"I..." Gu Yanchuan spoke hesitantly.
"Don't force yourself." Shu Wanwan seemed to see through Gu Yanchuan.
Shu Wanwan patted Gu Yanchuan's shoulder gently and comforted him, "It's okay. If they don't want to see you, we can think of other ways."
Gu Yanchuan nodded, "You... you already know everything... I'm sorry, Wanwan... It's not that I don't believe you... It's just that I don't know what to do when facing this."
"It's okay, don't think too much. I just accidentally calculated your horoscope when I was measuring the dirt on your body."
At this moment, a crisp ring suddenly rang in the originally quiet room, breaking the brief silence.
Shu Wanwan's cell phone on the table vibrated and emitted pleasant music.
Her eyes quickly shot to the flickering screen.
"Who's calling?" Gu Yanchuan came over and asked softly.
His eyes were fixed on the phone in Shu Wanwan's hand, as if he wanted to peek through the screen to find out the identity of the caller.
Shu Wanwan glanced down at the screen, a complicated expression on her face.
She hesitated for a moment, then looked up at Gu Yanchuan and said slowly, "It's Jiang Jingchen."
After that, she stood up, walked to a corner of the room with her cell phone, and started talking in a low voice.
Gu Yanchuan silently watched Shu Wanwan's departing back, and an indescribable feeling of loneliness welled up in his heart.
He sat quietly by the bed, looking ahead with a somewhat confused look, his thoughts gradually drifting away.
After a while, Shu Wanwan ended the call and walked to Gu Yanchuan's bed. With a light wave of her hand, she collected the purification talisman hanging above the bed.
"There's almost no black energy left."
Shu Wanwan lowered her head and spoke in a very soft voice.
But she couldn't hide the solemn look on her face, as if the phone call just now had brought her some bad news.
Before Shu Wanwan could sit down, Gu Yanchuan couldn't wait to ask, "Is it about my parents?" His voice was slightly out of tune, revealing his inner anxiety.
Shu Wanwan nodded gently, sighed, and said, "Well, Gu's parents refused to come. Jiang Jingchen said he had tried to contact them many times, but in the end they refused to even answer the phone anymore."
Upon hearing this news, Gu Yanchuan's face looked even paler.
He chuckled bitterly, leaning back weakly and landing heavily on the bed.
At this moment, Shu Wanwan could feel Gu Yanchuan's immense disappointment.
"Some things still have to be faced. Escaping is not a solution." Shu Wanwan comforted softly.
"Escape is shameful but useful..." Gu Yanchuan still had that wry smile on his face.
At this time Bai Xuan came back from outside.
Bai Xuan looked at Gu Yanchuan's expression, stunned for two seconds, then looked at Shu Wanwan, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
"what happened to him?"
Shu Wanwan didn't answer Bai Xuan's question but instead asked, "How's the news about Yi Siyang?"
Bai Xuan shook his head, walked over, and sat on Gu Yanchuan's bed, "No, they said Gu Yanchuan was alone when he was sent here..."
Bai Xuan patted Gu Yanchuan's shoulder and said, "Don't worry too much. The guy with facial paralysis shouldn't be that fragile."
Gu Yanchuan knew that Bai Xuan had misunderstood, but his mood did improve.
