As the saying went, flowers carefully planted might never bloom, while willows casually stuck into the ground could grow into shade.
Qu Rang Na Duo had always longed to revive his wife, Sangzhu. By all rights, it should have been impossible. Even I had initially thought it was pure fantasy, yet after our trip to the Ruins of Yan, his dream had somehow actually come true.
Although Sangzhu had not truly been revived yet, as long as the Doctor agreed, it was practically a done deal.
At daybreak the next morning, we prepared to leave.
We were going to find Xu Qiuyan's mother and her group.
I had no idea whether they had already come out. If they were allowed to stir up trouble in this world, heaven knew what kind of catastrophe they would bring about.
"You're leaving already? But what about my matter..." Qu Rang Na Duo grew anxious when he heard the Doctor say that he would be leaving with us.
The Doctor comforted him. "Old brother, don't be impatient. Reviving someone isn't as simple as you think. It requires many things, and I need to make preparations too. Besides, you don't have the conditions here. How about this? Two months. I'll come find you in two months, then take you to my laboratory. Don't worry. I guarantee your wife will be standing alive before you."
Jiang Xiaohui also tried to persuade him. "Exactly. You've waited all these years already. Can't you wait another two months?"
I looked at Jiang Xiaohui, not knowing what I felt. Still, he seemed to be learning something about human feelings and social manners now. He was no longer like before.
Qu Rang Na Duo finally let out a soft sigh. "All right. I'll wait here."
Yang Jian came up to me.
