Chapter 5 Weak Water: Bai Yue, is it really you?
"She is indeed quite strong..."
As Lin Feng spoke, he seemed to remember something.
If I remember correctly, Aunt Ruoshui and Long Xingyu were in the same demon-hunting team more than ten years ago.
If that's the case, then does that mean I know Bai Yue?
Given Long Haochen's eagerness to save his mother, he will most likely beg Ruoshui to treat Bai Yue.
As a pastor, Ruoshui has the duty to save lives and heal the wounded, so she would probably not refuse a child's request for help.
This is going to be interesting.
As for Long Haochen, upon hearing Lin Feng's words, his furrowed brows immediately relaxed.
He also had an innocent smile on his face.
Jiang Hu, Long Haochen's best friend, seeing Long Haochen's excited expression, comforted him, "Haochen, don't worry, Aunt Bai Yue isn't seriously ill. If any sir can lend a hand, Aunt Bai Yue will definitely be alright."
……
……
About half an hour later, Ruoshui and Balza had finished their conversation and came out to be greeted by Bazar.
Ruoshui nodded and looked at Balza beside her, saying, "Instructor Balza, if there's nothing else, we'll take our leave now. I'll arrange for the priest to come over in a month."
"Yes, don't worry, I will process the application with the Knights Temple as soon as possible."
Without hesitation, Long Haochen ran straight to Ruoshui and knelt down with a thud.
"Senior, please save my mother."
Balza and Ruoshui were startled by Long Haochen's sudden request.
Balza, who was standing to the side, seemed to remember something and explained, "Lord of Weak Water Palace, it's like this, for some reason, this child's mother has been frail and sickly for many years, and she hasn't gotten better..."
Looking at Long Haochen kneeling before her, Ruoshui slowly said, "Child, please get up. There's still a little time. Why don't you take me to your home?"
Upon hearing Ruoshui's words, Long Haochen was also excited.
"Thank you, senior."
After leaving the Knights' Hall, Long Haochen took Lin Feng, Cai'er, and Ruoshui home.
About half an hour later, Long Haochen and the others arrived at the mountainside of a mountain outside Odin Town.
"Brother Lin, Miss Cai'er, Senior Ruoshui, this is my home."
Following the direction Long Haochen pointed, a simple wooden house stood on a gentle, flat slope covered with flowers.
Seeing this, Ruoshui asked, "What's your mother's condition now? Could you tell me about it?"
Long Haochen sighed and said, "Ever since I can remember, my mother's health has been very weak, especially in recent years. Her health has deteriorated further. If I hadn't given her the Qi-Nourishing Elixir that the Knight Branch Hall gave me, I'm afraid... I'm afraid..."
By the end, Long Haochen's voice even trembled slightly.
Seeing this, Ruoshui patted Long Haochen's head, but her eyes sharpened as she asked, "Where is your father?"
"Father..." Long Haochen paused for a moment before continuing, "My mother said that my father died before I was even born..."
So filial...
Lin Feng couldn't help but mentally complain when he heard Long Haochen's words.
As for Ruoshui, she was slightly taken aback when she heard Long Haochen's words, and couldn't help but look at Lin Feng and Sheng Cai'er beside her.
What's wrong with me? Why do I keep running into orphans everywhere...?
Could it be some kind of special constitution?
However, Long Haochen's talent is quite good. If what he said is true, that he has not drunk the Qi-Nourishing Liquid in all these years and has still passed the Knight Branch Hall assessment, then his talent can be considered top-notch.
They walked and talked, and soon the four of them arrived at the wooden house.
Before Long Haochen could open the door, a weak cough came from inside.
It gives the impression that he might die at any moment.
"Mother!"
Upon seeing this, Long Haochen quickly pushed open the door and ran all the way to the bedroom.
Seeing this, the three of them followed behind Long Haochen.
Inside the room, Bai Yue, with her delicate features, haggard face, wearing a white dress and long black hair, lay on her side on the bed with her eyes closed.
Seeing Bai Yue so weak, Long Haochen could no longer lie to her. He took out today's dose of Qi-Nourishing Liquid from his pocket, opened the cap, and poured it into Bai Yue's mouth.
After drinking the entire bottle of Qi-Nourishing Elixir, Bai Yue's breathing finally stabilized.
Seeing that Bai Yue showed no signs of waking up, Long Haochen knelt down in front of Ruoshui.
"Senior, please help save my mother."
Seeing this, Ruoshui said directly, "Get up first. Since I've already come with you, I'll naturally help."
As she spoke, Ruoshui took out her staff, and instantly the room was filled with holy light elements.
A moment later, a beam of brilliant golden light landed on Bai Yue.
It was the priest's third-tier skill "Holy Light". Although it was a third-tier skill, the caster was a cardinal with the peak of the eighth tier, and the target was an ordinary person without any spiritual energy fluctuations. The effect was predictable.
Under the baptism of the sacred light, Bai Yue's blood and qi visibly regained their rosy hue, and the haggardness on her face completely disappeared.
Within a few breaths, Bai Yue slowly opened her eyes.
The first thing Bai Yue saw when she opened her eyes was not surprise or delight, but worry.
"Who are you?"
Faced with Bai Yue's question, Long Haochen, who was standing to the side, said with a happy face: "Mother, this is Brother Lin, this is Miss Cai'er, and this is Senior Ruoshui. They are all from the Temple of Priests."
"They saved you."
"Priest's Temple! Weak Water?"
Upon hearing Long Haochen's words, Bai Yue's gaze immediately locked onto Ruoshui.
Her mother, Bai Lingxuan, was a member of the priest's temple, and wasn't Ruoshui her husband Long Xingyu's former companion?
At this moment, Ruoshui stared blankly at Bai Yue, whose haggard appearance had faded.
"What's your name?"
Faced with Ruoshui's question, Bai Yue subconsciously lowered her head and said, "I'm sorry, I'm not feeling well, so I won't be able to entertain you all. If there's nothing else, please leave."
"You're joking. While I can't cure your illness completely, I can certainly help you recover in a short time."
Seeing that Ruoshui was unwilling to leave, Bai Yue gestured to Long Haochen to help her up.
Bai Yue, leaning against the headboard, sighed and said, "I never thought that after hiding with Hao Chen for so many years, you would still find us."
Upon hearing Bai Yue's admission, Ruoshui chuckled and said, "Then we have to thank these children."
