The Man Who Appears Once a Year

Chapter 20

"Which of you two is a family member? Come over here and sign the consent form for the surgery."

Yu Fan raised his hand: "Yes, but I am a minor. Can I sign?"

"I sign. I am the patient's father."

A middle-aged man rushed over, exhausted, and followed the doctor to another room next to the operating room to sign.

"But who are you?" Yu Fan tilted his head and looked at Ruan Qiuping, "What is your relationship with Yu Huan?"

Ruan Qiuping turned around and looked at Yu Fan, his expression a little stiff: "What did you just say?"

"What?" Yu Fan thought for a moment before finally speaking with sudden realization, "Is that the sentence about Yu Huan being the star of disaster?"

Yu Fan seemed puzzled: "But it's ok that you don't know he is a disaster star, but you actually think Yu Huan is very lucky. What do you think? Have you been deceived by him?... Oh, I remember, he likes to lie. When I was a child, he rolled the dice in front of me and said that he could always roll six, saying that he was not a disaster star, but everyone knew that he practiced it himself. Maybe he cheated secretly... And he was only good at rolling the dice, and he never beat me in rock-paper-scissors..."

… dice.

Ruan Qiuping suddenly remembered the time when Yu Huan was seven years old and he and Yu Huan went to the night market together.

At that time, he said he wanted to improve Yu Huan's good luck and let Yu Huan play the roulette game.

Yu Huan refused, saying that the turntable had been tampered with, and then went to play the dice rolling game.

Ruan Qiuping remembered clearly that Yu Huan had shaken out six several times in a row.

Then Ruan Qiuping remembered that yesterday when he was looking for water in Yu Huan's refrigerator, he found a dice cup that had been rubbed to a shiny shine.

"I've been fooled by him before... Tsk... If I hadn't entered his house and seen the Taoist talismans painted all over the wall to ward off evil spirits, I would have really believed that he wasn't a disaster star!"

Ruan Qiuping looked at Yu Fan and asked almost word by word: "What room?"

Yu Fan took a step back and said, "Yes, it's the wooden house in the mansion where Yu Huan lived for a while."

"take me."

Although Ruan Qiuping had been to that place before, he appeared out of thin air last time with the power of the bracelet and had no idea the exact location of the house.

Yu Fan frowned and said with a look of disdain: "You are fucking mentally ill, why should I take you there?"

Ruan Qiuping suddenly reached out and grabbed Yu Fan by the collar, and said in a voice that seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth: "Take me there!"

Yu Fan wanted to push him away, but suddenly found a drop of blood from Ruan Qiuping's hand dripping onto his collar. Then, a hole was instantly burned on the place where the blood dripped on his clothes.

Fortunately, he was wearing a thick cotton coat. If it was thin, the hole would have been directly branded on his body.

Yu Fan was so frightened that his soul left his body and he could hardly stand up straight. Then, looking at Ruan Qiuping's bloodshot eyes, he suddenly felt that this man was as scary as a demon.

His body began to tremble, and his voice almost sounded like tears: "Let...let me go! I'll take you there! I'll take you there!!"

"We're here..." Yu Fan looked up and glanced at Ruan Qiuping, and said softly.

The rain had stopped, but water was still dripping from the eaves of the cabin in front of me. Weeds grew in front of the cabin, as if no one had been there for many years.

"After that incident, Grandpa forbade Yu Huan to appear in the house again. No one has lived in the cottage since then, and I have only been in there to take a look."

"… When? What happened?"

"It was the day when Yu Huan escaped from my grandfather's party and was kidnapped. I remember that I threw a toy at Yu Huan, but the toy stopped in midair and fell down, as if it had hit a ghost. I told others about this, but no one believed me. In the end, it was my grandfather who asked someone to retrieve the surveillance footage and found out that what I said was true. Yu Huan was not only a disaster star, but also made friends with ghosts..."

As he spoke, Yu Fan's voice gradually became quieter. Suddenly realizing something, he glanced at Ruan Qiuping and said tremblingly, "... Is... is it you? Is that ghost next to Yu Huan you? You are weird, and your blood is weird too..."

Ruan Qiuping lowered his head and his fingers unconsciously pressed the wound on his right wrist.

It turned out... It turned out that the attack he blocked for Xiao Yuhuan had such serious consequences.

Fortunately, he was so complacent at that time that he secretly helped Xiao Yuhuan.

Ruan Qiuping said hoarsely: "...Go on."

"... Then... Then Yu Huan was kidnapped. Grandpa came back and said, don't bother... But Dad thought of the old relationship with Yu Huan's late mother, so he called the police... But after this incident, Yu Huan never came here again..."

Ruan Qiuping took a step forward and kicked the door.

Although the cabin was locked, it was so old that Ruan Qiuping opened it with just a kick.

Sure enough, just as Yufan had said, the walls of the wooden house were covered with talismans to ward off evil spirits. Even though they were talismans created by that fake Taoist priest in the mortal world, the four bright red characters of "warding off evil spirits and exorcising evil spirits" were so overwhelming that they caught people's eyesight and hurt them.

"Yu Huan's mother died when he was born. The Taoist priest said that he was born with bad luck and was an unlucky person, so his grandfather asked the Taoist priest to find an 'eye to drive away evil spirits' and built this house with peach wood to suppress the bad luck in Yu Huan. The talisman on the wall was originally covered by wallpaper, but it is said that when Yu Huan was six or seven years old, he suddenly discovered the talisman and then peeled off all the wallpaper like crazy..."

Ruan Qiuping looked at the talismans on the wall and his heart was trembling.

So, when Yu Huan entered the main house, he didn't go in with his father? So, as soon as he entered the main house, he went straight to this wooden house covered with talismans? He knew clearly that this was the house that suppressed him, but he still locked himself in this house until the banquet was about to begin.

What kind of mood did seven-year-old Yu Huan have when he walked into this house and stayed here

“Shua—”

Ruan Qiuping suddenly reached out and tore off a yellowed talisman from the wall.

Then he tore the talisman into pieces inch by inch.

After tearing it, he threw the pieces on the ground and reached out to tear another talisman.

The air was so quiet that the only sound was the sound of the talisman being torn into pieces, one after another, crackling, as if it would never stop.

Yu Fan took a step back in fear and wanted to escape.

But as soon as he turned around, he heard Ruan Qiuping, who had already torn off more than a dozen talismans, say to him in a very hoarse voice: "... Go on. Tell me everything you know about Yu Huan."

Yu Fan got goosebumps all over his body. He stood still and opened his mouth timidly, telling Ruan Qiuping everything he knew.

It turned out that when little Yuhuan ran away from home at the age of five, he didn't know that he was the "disaster star" in the family. He just didn't understand why everyone avoided him, he just didn't understand why his relatives hated him, he just didn't understand why his half-brother, who was also a child, could live with his family, while he had to live alone in a villa on the mountain.

So he ran away from home, wanting to leave here, he could follow anyone, he was just fed up with this kind of life.

But I heard that after little Yu Huan was caught running away from home, he was completely locked up in that villa, and for the whole year, Yu Huan did not go out.

When little Yuhuan was six years old, Ruan Qiuping went to the villa to play with him.

But the day after Ruan Qiuping left, the villa was hit by a forest fire. One person died and two were seriously injured. Although Xiao Yuhuan survived, he lay in bed for a whole day. After waking up, the name "disaster star" officially reached his ears.

Ruan Qiuping recalled that he had discussed with Xiao Yuhuan in that villa why his bad luck would not affect Xiao Yuhuan.

The conclusion he came to was: because little Yuhuan was so lucky, his good fortune dispelled his bad luck.

But Xiao Yuhuan said at that time: It is also possible that I am an extremely unfortunate person. Because I am so unfortunate, even the bad luck you passed on to me seems insignificant.

He refuted Xiao Yuhuan at the time, saying that he was talking nonsense.

Thinking about it now, perhaps it was from that time that Xiao Yuhuan had vaguely realized that his bad luck was different from others.

Yu Huan has always had bad luck.

What is incredible to everyone is that Yu Huan has been unlucky once a year since he was fifteen years old.

For example, this year I had a car accident during the college entrance examination. Last year, I was hit by a shot put on the last day of the school sports meeting and broke my bones. I was hospitalized for half a month. The year before last, on the second day of the opening ceremony, I fell down the stairs and almost died...

Today’s car accident and the kidnapping when he was seven years old happened when Ruan Qiuping was alive.

Every remaining accident occurred the day after Ruan Qiuping left.

The happiness, the laughter, the contact, the hugs of that day, all come to my mind one by one.

Those memories that were as warm and precious to Ruan Qiuping as a stove, turned out to have turned into boiling magma, burning Yu Huan to pieces and causing him unbearable pain.

The last talisman was torn into pieces and floated to the ground.

There was no more talisman left on the wall, only glue marks all over the wall.

Ruan Qiuping walked out of the wooden house.

Yu Fan also followed.

Ruan Qiuping stood in front of the wooden house, stretched out his hand, and cast a spell to ignite fire.

In a short while, the whole wooden house was on fire.

Qi Yue appeared in front of Ruan Qiuping again silently, and Yu Fan fainted on the ground in an instant.

Ruan Qiuping was praying for the moon.

The wooden house behind him was burning fiercely, reflecting on Ruan Qiuping's face, flickering with a red flame: "You knew it a long time ago, right... That's why you said my records don't match the facts."

Qi Yue nodded.

"Is it because... is it because of Zang's dribble? Is there something wrong with Zang's dribble? Did I instill too much bad luck into his Zang's dribble?"

Qi Yue was silent for a moment, then said, "Yes, but no. The bad luck you instilled in the Tibetan dribbling ball is normal, even a little biased. If that were the case, Yu Huan should have been blessed with good luck in this life on earth. The problem is the drop of blood you dripped into the Tibetan dribbling ball."

"… Blood?"

"Yes, it's fortunate that the bloody Tibetan dribble belongs to Yu Huan. If it were any other immortal who had experienced tribulations, he would have died the moment he hit the ground."

"When did you...know about this?"

Qiyue said: "The master discovered it not long after he got the Tibetan dribble."

"I discovered it not long after I got the Tibetan dribble. Why didn't you tell me? Why didn't you make a new Tibetan dribble?"

Qi Yue frowned and said, "This is the result of our discussion. As the lucky god who is about to take office, Yu Huan has a heavy responsibility. The more miserable his life is in the human world, the higher his magic will be after he successfully overcomes the tribulation. Moreover, you accidentally dripped blood into the Tibetan ball, which also shows that this is the tribulation that Yu Huan should overcome. This is his fate."

Ruan Qiuping's fingertips were trembling with anger: "So what you mean is... I met him in the human world, and he had accidents every year, and it was also his fate?"

Qi Yue nodded.

Ruan Qiuping looked at Qiyue and said through gritted teeth: "Then go save him and give him his legs that are about to be amputated. Then tell me that everything is fate! Then tell me that he is lucky enough to still have his legs after the accident, which is also his fate!"

Qi Yue shook her head: "No, I can't tamper with the fate of people who have come down to earth."

Ruan Qiuping was almost driven mad with anger.

"Why?! Why did I change his originally lucky life into his destined destiny, but you can't even use magic to make his future life a little smoother?!"

Qi Yue: "Ruan Qiuping, don't forget that Yu Huan is going through a catastrophe. His fate can only be changed to be rough, not smooth."

Ruan Qiuping looked at Qiyue coldly and said, "Who the hell would believe your nonsense!"

Yu Huan finished the operation at ten o'clock in the morning and woke up in the evening.

Ruan Qiuping didn't want to enter the ward at first, he just wanted to quietly look at Yu Huan through the window at the door.

But as she was looking at it secretly, she met Yu Huan's eyes.

Yu Huan opened his mouth and gestured to Ruan Qiuping to come in.

Ruan Qiuping hesitated for a moment, and finally pushed the door open and walked in.

He really needed to go in, he really needed to take back a drop of his own blood.

No matter how weak his magic power was, even if only one tenth of his magic power was left, as long as he could recover a drop of his own blood, Ruan Qiuping could do it.

As soon as Ruan Qiuping walked in, he subconsciously glanced at the hospital bed.

The space where the right leg should be on the bed was empty, with a flat spot underneath.

Ruan Qiuping paused for a moment, and even his breathing trembled.

In the end, he was unable to move forward.

Just stood there.

"Ruan Ruan, come here." Yu Huan called him.

"It's okay, Ruanruan, come here, I want to take care of you." Yu Huan smiled at him again.

Ruan Qiuping took two steps forward and stood beside the bed.

Yu Huan extended his hand toward Ruan Qiuping.

Ruan Qiuping's lips trembled, and then he hid his hands behind his back.

"…Does it hurt?" Ruan Qiuping asked tremblingly.

Yu Huan put his hand back into the quilt, shook his head and smiled: "It doesn't hurt. If it weren't for my eyes, I wouldn't even feel that I lost a leg."

Ruan Qiuping took a deep breath. He seemed to be trying hard to keep himself calm, but every time he breathed, he was trembling slightly. He felt as if his body was filled with warm water, causing him to be unable to see clearly what was in front of him no matter how wide he opened his eyes.

Yu Huan: "Ruan Ruan, when will you come next year? I need to repeat my studies. If you come in the first half of next year, I may not be able to take you to eat at Big A Bao, but we can have a drink then."

Ruan Qiuping looked up at Yu Huan and said, "Yu Huan, do you know why you had the car accident?"

Yu Huan said: "Because the driver was driving tired."

"No." Ruan Qiuping said, "It's because of me, it's all because of me. All the accidents and misfortunes you've experienced since childhood are because of me. All the pain and all the harm are caused by me."

Yu Huan was silent for a while, then looked up at Ruan Qiuping. He seemed to have not heard what Ruan Qiuping had just said, and said to Ruan Qiuping with a smile: "Ruan Ruan, my mouth is so bitter, Ruan Ruan, do you have any candy?"

Ruan Qiuping opened his mouth and said, "I'll buy it for you."

"Then I won't eat." Yu Huan said hurriedly, "I won't eat, Ruan Ruan, you don't have to go."

"... Ruan Ruan, how long can you stay here this time?" Yu Huan asked again.

Ruan Qiuping lowered his head and glanced at the bracelet, saying, "Four hours."

"Ruan Ruan will stay with me for the next four hours, okay?" Yu Huan moved his head on the pillow and said with a smile, "I'm injured, Ruan Ruan will stay with me, okay?"

Ruan Qiuping said nothing, but just looked at Yu Huan quietly.

As he thought about it, his eyes were fixed on the ear bone of Yu Huan's left ear.

There was a small mole there, its color bright red as if it had absorbed blood.

Ruan Qiuping suddenly remembered that he had seen the mole on Yu Huan's ear bone when he met him for the second time.

Why didn't he recognize at that time that the mole was the blood he left in Yu Huan's body

Did he not recognize her, or did he not want to recognize her

The first time he met Yu Huan, he learned that Yu Huan ran away from home because of a disagreement with his family.

The second time he met Yu Huan, he learned that Yu Huan was alone and locked up in a villa on the mountain.

The first time he saw Yu Huan, he saw Yu Huan being bullied by his half-brother who was one year younger than him.

He really didn't know that Yu Huan didn't have any good luck, so he pretended to know nothing.

If Yu Huan was so lucky that he was completely immune to the bad luck that befell Ruan Qiuping, then Yu Huan must be lively and cheerful, with a happy family, as if he was the apple of everyone's eye. How could he run away from home? How could he live alone? How could he be bullied

Is he really so stupid that he doesn't see anything, or is he just deceiving himself

It’s because he is too eager to get along with others, because he is too lonely, because he is too selfish, and because he wants too much to interact with others, hold hands with others, and hug others like a normal person.

This desire covered his eyes, covered his ears, and covered his conscience, making him turn a blind eye to all unreasonable things and turn a deaf ear to all the pain that Yu Huan suffered.

Because he is so despicable.

Ruan Qiuping looked at Yu Huan and suddenly said softly, "Little Yu Huan, do you remember that day when we were playing a guessing game on Christmas and everyone said the answer was Santa Claus, but you called out my name?"

Yu Huan nodded: "Remember."

Ruan Qiuping said: "Then I will give you a gift like Santa Claus, okay?"

"What gift?" Yu Huan was a little curious.

"Close your eyes." Ruan Qiuping said.

Yu Huan closed his eyes obediently.

Ruan Qiuping stretched out his hand to summon the drop of blood attached to Yu Huan's ear bone.

But that drop of blood entered Yu Huan's body along with Zang Yunqiu. He had been with Yu Huan in the human world for nearly 18 years and had long since stopped responding to Ruan Qiuping's call.

There was a fruit knife on the bedside table. Ruan Qiuping picked it up and cut his palm hard.

The brand new fruit knife immediately turned black and even the tip of the knife bent.

The blood dripped onto the floor like water, leaving the floor dark again.

The next moment, the blood that was dripping from Ruan Qiuping's palm, the blood that fell on the floor, and the blood that stopped on the blade all floated in the air, and kept approaching Yu Huan's ear bone.

Finally, the drop of blood on Yu Huan's ear bone heard the call of its master and the humans. It moved slightly, then flew out of Yu Huan's skin and merged into the other blood.

Ruan Qiuping finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He waved his hand and took back all the blood.

"Ruan Ruan, are you okay?" Yu Huan asked.

"Okay." Ruan Qiuping hid his bloody hands behind his back again.

Yu Huan opened his eyes and asked doubtfully, "Ruan Ruan, what gift did you give me?"

"Good luck." Ruan Qiuping stroked Yu Huan's clean ears and said with a smile.

As long as I take away the bad luck, I will be giving you good luck.

Yu Huan blinked, seeming a little confused.

The blood on Ruan Qiuping's hand could not be stopped. He held his injured hand tightly and said, "You go to sleep. I'll go out for a while."

"Where is Ruan Ruan going?" Yu Huan asked nervously.

"I'll go buy you some candy," said Ruan Qiuping.

"Ruan Ruan, don't go!" Yu Huan shouted hurriedly.

"I'll be back soon."

Ruan Qiuping actually intended to buy candy for Yu Huan.

Since he had promised to buy candy for Yu Huan, he was unwilling to break his promise.

After Ruan Qiuping walked out of the hospital, he ran to the nearest convenience store and said to the waiter standing on the ladder who was arranging the goods: "I want to buy some candy."

"Okay." The waiter came down the ladder, "We have plenty of candy at home, I'll give you some as well."

"good."

As soon as the shopkeeper's feet touched the ground, he suddenly slipped and fell to the ground with a thud, hitting his head heavily on the shelf behind him.

"Grandpa, are you okay?" The boy who was doing his homework at the small table next to him suddenly ran over and hurriedly helped his grandfather up.

The master helped his grandson stand up, rubbed his head, and muttered, "It's really weird, did I run into the bad luck god? He even fell down like this!"

Ruan Qiuping's heart skipped a beat and he turned and walked out of the convenience store.

Suddenly, heavy rain came pouring down and pedestrians on the road began to run in panic.

Some people ran too fast and bumped into each other, and both fell to the ground.

They patted themselves, stood up with frowns, and complained: "We are so unlucky today..."

The road was noisy and full of noise.

"What bad luck! Why is it raining again?"

"It rains every time I don't bring an umbrella. Is Mercury retrograde these past two days?"

"I hate rainy days. Why is everything going wrong today..."

"bump!"

The two cars suddenly collided in front of Ruan Qiuping.

The huge impact startled the passers-by.

A driver opened his car door and got out, cursing: "What a damn bad luck! What kind of trouble have I encountered?!"

Ruan Qiuping stood there in a daze.

Suddenly, as if he suddenly realized something, he started running like crazy.

He didn't know where to run, he just knew to run.

Run to a deserted place.

His whole body was soon soaked.

All the noises around him disappeared.

There is only one voice in my mind.

Get out of here.

Get out of here.

Get out of here.

His breathing gradually became rapid, and his chest felt stuffy and painful from running so fast. Raindrops fell on his head and flowed down his cheeks into his collar.

The clothes made a wet and rustling sound as he ran, and they felt heavy.

He finally stopped in an empty alley.

It's empty here and no one will be affected by his bad luck.

Ruan Qiuping slowly squatted down against the wall, covering his face tightly.

The whole body began to tremble slightly.

When Ruan Qiuping returned home today, it was already dark.

"Why did you come back so late today?" Ruan Shengfeng took out the cold food.

Ruan Qiuping didn't say anything.

He was extremely pale, with his head hung, and walked towards his room with a tired look on his face.

Because he burned down the mortal's house this time, his identity was exposed in front of Yu Fan, so he was kept back by the teacher after school to be criticized.

But as soon as Siming opened his mouth, Ruan Qiuping started arguing with Siming about hiding the dribble.

Siming and Qiyue are different after all.

Even if Qi Yue did something wrong, he always felt that he was right and that he represented justice and rules.

Siming at least knew that what he did was wrong, and he blamed Ruan Qiuping out of guilt.

But even though he felt guilty, he still had no intention of restoring Yu Huan's injured leg.

"Yu Huan's legs have been amputated. This matter has been recorded in the Book of Destiny, and no one can change it. If we go against destiny and go against nature and force Yu Huan to grow a pair of good legs, then the calamity that Yu Huan has experienced this time will be nullified."

"Qiuping?"

Ruan Shengfeng frowned when he saw that his son did not reply to his question: "What happened today? Did something happen?"

Ruan Qiuping looked so pale that he looked like he was going to faint in the next second.

"What's wrong with you? Come on, eat some spiritual fruit to replenish your spiritual energy." Ruan Shengfeng quickly handed over a red fruit.

Ruan Qiuping shook his head and said, "I'm going to sleep."

Ruan Shengfeng suddenly found that his son's palms and wrists were all covered with wounds that had not been treated in time. He asked worriedly: "What's wrong with your hands? How did you get hurt?"

"nothing."

"How come such a serious injury is nothing? Come here and sit here. I will treat you."

Seeing that he couldn't persuade him, Ruan Qiuping sat on the stone bench beside him and let Ruan Shengfeng treat his wounds.

While Ruan Shengfeng was healing Ruan Qiuping, he used magic to move the spiritual power fruit to Ruan Qiuping's uninjured left hand.

"Eat quickly, you look scary."

Ruan Qiuping glanced at the spiritual fruit in his hand and said, "I'll eat it next time when I practice martial arts."

After Ruan Shengfeng treated Ruan Qiuping's injuries, he sat on the stone bench opposite him and suddenly asked him, "Do you really eat when you practice martial arts?"

Ruan Qiuping nodded: "It will be more effective if you eat this when practicing."

Ruan Shengfeng glanced at Ruan Qiuping, then took out a small box from his arms: "Then eat this next time you practice."

Ruan Qiuping stared at the box in shock for a moment.

This was the Golden Soul Condensing Pill that Ruan Shengfeng gave him half a month ago. It was extremely rare, but he didn't expect that Ruan Shengfeng only had one.

Ruan Qiuping took the box: "Thank you, Dad."

Ruan Shengfeng looked a little strange. He glanced at the box, then at Ruan Qiuping, and said, "Qiuping, do you know what kind of pill this is?"

"Golden Soul Condensing Pill." Ruan Qiuping said calmly, "It's the same one you gave me last time."

Ruan Shengfeng: "So how did you feel after eating it last time?"

Ruan Qiuping was silent for a while, then said, "It feels good. It is indeed an extraordinary elixir, but it is useless to me."

"Why is it so unkind to you?"

"Have you forgotten that I have bad luck and poor aptitude? Since I reached a bottleneck 100 years ago, my cultivation has stopped for a long time. No matter how I practice or how I make pills, it is of no use."

"So you won't eat any spiritual fruit, and won't drink any spiritual soup. Every time I give you something that can help you improve your cultivation, you find all kinds of excuses not to eat it, right?"

Ruan Qiuping was stunned for a moment, then looked up at Ruan Shengfeng.

Ruan Shengfeng pointed at the box of pills in Ruan Qiuping's hand and said, "This is not a new pill I got. Dongdong found it in your drawer when he went to your room to play today. Why didn't you eat it but lied to me that you did?"

“… There is no use eating it, it is a complete waste.”

"You have to eat it before you can say that! You haven't eaten it yet, so how do you know it's good for you?"

Ruan Shengfeng sighed and said, "Qiuping, I still remember how happy you were and how hard you worked when you first knew that you could control your bad luck by being named the God of Bad Luck. You practiced every day, from morning till night, and when you were not practicing, you went to the mountains to pick spiritual fruits to eat. You were the most motivated child I have ever seen... But since more than a hundred years ago, when you said that your skills had reached a bottleneck, I have never seen you work so hard again.

"Don't you want to be deified? Don't you want to personally control the bad luck around you? Do you really want this bad luck to haunt you for the rest of your life, so that you can never get in touch with others, and you can only bring misfortune to others forever?"

The image of Yu Huan on the hospital bed came into Ruan Qiuping's mind, and his lips trembled: "I don't want to, I don't want to bring misfortune to others..."

"Then give me this Golden Soul Condensing Pill!" said Ruan Shengfeng.

Ruan Qiuping held the pill in his hand with a bewildered look on his face: "... After taking this pill, will I not let others suffer misfortune? After taking this pill... if I encounter a car accident like that again in the future, will I be able to prevent it and prevent him from losing his right leg?"

Ruan Shengfeng didn't quite understand what his son said, but he still said, "Eat it. Your cultivation will grow faster after you eat it. You will be one step closer to becoming a god and controlling your bad luck."

Ruan Qiuping slowly put the pill into his mouth.

"Swallow it." said Ruan Shengfeng.

Ruan Qiuping swallowed the pill.

The moment the pill went down his stomach, an abundant amount of spiritual energy instantly filled his dantian.

Ruan Qiuping seemed to have realized something all of a sudden. He opened his eyes wide and said, "Dad, I'm going to practice."

"Hurry up and practice hard, son! Use the effect of this pill as soon as possible!"

Ruan Qiuping turned his head and instantly moved to the woods where he often practiced martial arts.

Ruan Qiuping's face changed, and he staggered to a tree. Then he held the trunk with his left hand, put his right fingers into his throat, and dug his throat hard, spitting out the pill he had just swallowed.

Although the pill had been vomited out, only one tenth of it remained, and the rest had been absorbed by Ruan Qiuping's body.

Ruan Qiuping sat on the ground and gathered his energy, trying to force out the spiritual power that the pill had increased for him. Veins bulged on his forehead, leaves fluttered in the air, and his good luck flowed.

"Puff—" Ruan Qiuping spat out a mouthful of blood.

The spiritual power has been integrated into his body and can no longer be taken out.

Ruan Qiuping tried his best and used his spiritual power to hit himself hard. He was knocked away by the palm, his back hit the tree trunk, he spit out a mouthful of blood, and fell to the ground.

But the spiritual power in his body still did not dissipate.

But he still didn't give up, and used his spiritual power to hit himself again and again. He was knocked into a tree, he was smashed to the ground, he was thrown up to the sky and then fell down. When he fell from the sky, the broken wood on the ground suddenly pierced into his flesh, and the pain was as if his heart was instantly pierced through. He kept coughing up blood, and the blood from his mouth and the blood from his back all flowed to the ground, burning the vibrant green grass into a charred black.

But it's of no avail.

Ruan Qiuping felt that all his strength had been drained away in an instant. He leaned back weakly, lying on the ground looking up at the sky. The elixir was indeed a top-notch elixir. A huge amount of spiritual power was running rampant in his body, merging with his original cultivation. His physical condition reached its peak at this moment. The injury he had just suffered did not affect his spiritual power at all.

The great improvement in cultivation is a great thing for ordinary immortals, but for Ruan Qiuping, it just makes him dizzy.

He just lay quietly on the ground, not practicing hard or trying to make the best use of the elixir as his father had said.

Instead, just like he had done in the past hundred years, he lay on the ground in a daze, using the excuse of coming here to practice martial arts.

When Ruan Qiuping was very young, he felt very sad because of his bad luck, so his father told him that as long as he worked hard to improve his cultivation, he could be named the real "Bad Luck God".

After becoming the God of Bad Luck, he can control bad luck with ease.

Just like the God of Wind can control the wind, and the God of Water can control the water, after becoming the God of Bad Luck, bad luck will become his power and weapon, rather than pain.

So he began to practice without stopping for a moment, and he even practiced so hard that he sometimes fainted.

After waking up, he would eat something to fill his stomach and continue practicing.

This kind of days lasted for one hundred and six years.

One hundred and fifteen years ago, he accidentally fell into the forbidden room of the library and learned a little-known secret.

The previous God of Miserables died more than a thousand years ago.

But no one knew how he died, so everyone simply referred to him as "dying unlucky". Anyway, the death of a god is unlucky, so people said that he died unlucky, and there was nothing wrong with it.

It turned out that the book recorded that the previous God of Luck committed suicide.

He even took out his own elixir and crushed it into pieces in the first year of his canonization.

Perhaps it was because the God of Bad Luck was born with a miserable life, so when he was canonized as a god, even the way he passed the tribulation was different from that of other people.

When others are going through tribulation, it is their own tribulation.

The god of bad luck brings disaster to your loved ones.

"I will not become a god, nor will I transcend the calamity."

"I'll just be a hapless loser forever."

Ruan Qiuping looked up at the sky and said softly.

The sky has become completely dark. The night sky in heaven is much more beautiful than the night sky on earth, with shining stars and the Milky Way filling the sky.

As he thought about it, Ruan Qiuping felt that the stars in the sky were as beautiful as Yu Huan's eyes.

Shining and bright, clear and cheerful.

Ruan Qiuping suddenly remembered that when he first met little Yuhuan, he was only five years old. He said that he had bad luck, but little Yuhuan didn't believe him at all. He held his hand innocently and said to him: "Pass your bad luck to me."

Unexpectedly, his words came true, and he really passed his bad luck to Yu Huan.

Ruan Qiuping recalled that before the car accident, Yu Huan had told him expectantly that he would do something very important after he grew up.

What is happening

Ruan Qiuping thought about it seriously for a long time but couldn't figure it out.

And he would never know the answer again.

After the car accident, Yu Huan was lying in a pool of blood. He tried his best to use magic to heal Yu Huan, but no matter how hard he tried, he failed.

At that time, he cut his wrist and let the blood corrode the bracelet, hating his own magic power for being so weak. Yu Huan was hurt, but he could do nothing.

Ruan Qiuping remembered that he was very desperate at the time, and his heart was almost split into two halves. One half was madly blaming himself for why he was a useless god with such weak spiritual power, and the other half knew deeply that he would never be able to possess powerful magic power.

A few stars twinkled in the sky.

It was as if Yu Huan was winking at him.

Ruan Qiuping looked at the stars that looked like Yu Huan's eyes and said softly.

"Xiao Yuhuan, you've arrived too, right?"

"I can't survive the catastrophe, nor can I become a god. What a useless god I am."

"Xiao Yuhuan, do you know how selfish and mean I am? In order to draw warmth from you, I pretended not to feel your misfortune. I am too mean. I can't even compare to the Santa Claus in your world."

"Xiao Yuhuan, I am not your finish line. I think about it and I can't even be called a stumbling block. I am the mountain that suddenly appeared while you were running and blocked your way."

"Xiao Yuhuan, you don't even know what I did to you, but you waited for me year after year, and you mistook me for someone important. You are very smart, but this is the dumbest thing about you. You are stupid because you don't know how to judge people, and you mistook bad people for good people."

"Xiao Yuhuan, I'm sorry. I said I would buy you candy, but I didn't keep my promise. I can't do anything well. In fact, I went to buy candy later, but I was afraid that you would become unhappy after eating the candy I bought, so I didn't give it to you."

"Xiao Yuhuan, I'm sorry, I can't come to play with you anymore from now on."

"After you become an adult, I can no longer accompany you to drink. After you are admitted to University A, I can no longer go to eat buns with you there."

"Actually, I shouldn't have thought about contacting you in the first place."

"I'm sorry. I was wrong."

"I will stay away from you."

"I will never bring you misfortune or pain again."

"sorry."

"sorry."

"sorry."

Ruan Qiuping apologized to the night sky over and over again.

He said it dozens or hundreds of times until his voice became hoarse.

"… sorry."

When he opened his mouth for the last time, he could no longer make any sound.

He curled up into a ball on the ground, finally unable to hold back his tears.
