Chapter 309 307 Children are always the first choice

Situ Haoran watched as Gu Hua took out a thumb-sized, transparent, diamond-shaped emerald green crystal object, seemingly from his sleeve, but actually secretly from space.

His eyes widened as he said, “This is… a crystal core!!”

Gu Hua looked at Situ in astonishment, “How do you know this thing is called a crystal core?”

Situ Haoran: “Where did this thing come from?”

Xiao Junlin looked at the two people who spoke at the same time, looking at them strangely, not understanding why they paid more attention to a transparent bead than to him as a patient.

Gu Hua: “I asked first.”

Situ Haoran secretly hated himself for being so slow to speak, so he had to answer Gu Hua’s question first: “The way we know this thing started from my ancestors. It all started with a diary.”

“Long story short.” Xiao Junlin felt that his life would not be that long. By the time his junior fellow apprentice finished narrating the deeds of his ancestors, he was afraid that grass would have grown on his grave.

Situ Haoran threw a white jade bottle to Senior Brother Wangye, “Suppress it first, and then I will treat you later.”

Xiao Junlin pursed his rosy thin lips and raised the corners of his mouth coldly.

At this moment, Situ Haoran, who was looking at Gu Hua with bright eyes and was about to tell her about the great deeds of his ancestors, did not notice that his senior brother was releasing full of malice towards him.

Gu Hua noticed the man’s dissatisfaction, but she was not a good person and was not prepared to remind someone who was so interested.

“Many years ago, a wealthy businessman’s beloved only son came to the Divine Doctor Valley for help after contracting a rare disease.

Because my ancestor, a miracle doctor, regarded money as dirt, and even when wealthy businessmen offered huge sums of money to treat him, he remained unmoved.

Finally, I had no choice but to take out two treasures passed down from our ancestors that we had treasured for a long time but didn’t know what they were for, and asked our great doctor ancestor to choose one.”

After Xiao Junlin’s burning sensation was suppressed, he said casually, “Your ancestors definitely didn’t want money if you treated it like dirt.”

Situ Haonan paused, his eyes flickering.

How could he continue to speak like this? The main reason was that his ancestors learned that the rich businessman took out something called a crystal core, which was said to be a magical thing that could bring the dead back to life.

…His ancestors wanted it.

Then the rich businessman took out a soft tube that his ancestors had never seen before. There was a transparent bottle on it, and a needle with fine holes on the bottom of the tube. His ancestors had been practicing medicine for generations, and there were many medical geniuses.

After getting it and studying it for a while, our ancestor guessed what the thing was used for, and he couldn’t let it go and regarded it as a treasure.

He shamelessly asked for these two things but was sternly rejected by the wealthy businessman.

His ancestor could only choose one of them, and finally chose the one that was more attractive to him and seemed to be able to inject liquid into the human body.

He must never tell anyone that his ancestor wanted two treasures as a reward, otherwise his words that he regarded money as dirt would be a slap in the face.

“It’s not important.” Situ Haoran: “My ancestors recorded in the diary that a wealthy businessman brought this crystal core to seek medical treatment, so I know this thing is called a crystal core.”

Gu Hua raised his eyebrows. It turned out that they were not from the same hometown!
When Madam Qing gave this thing to Gu Hua as a gift in order to repay her for saving the lives of the entire village, Gu Hua guessed that there must have been other people who had traveled to this world many years before she did.

Moreover, he or she must have traveled through time from the end of the world, otherwise, he or she would not have passed down the crystal core.

But Gu Hua was always puzzled. She had not seen anything created by modern people in this world. She could only think that maybe the person who traveled through time was keeping a low profile.

Since Situ told him how he recognized the crystal core, Gu Hua also told him how she got the crystal core. “A few years ago, I saved the remaining women in the village and brought them to Shuzhou for shelter. Someone gave me this as a reward.”

Situ Haoran did not doubt Gu Hua’s words. In those turbulent years when people could die at any time, it was not surprising that someone would give away this crystal core that was said to be able to bring the dead back to life in order to seek shelter.

“Can this save a few of my children?” Situ Haoran glanced at his senior brother, whose expression did not change at all. It was obvious that he was not angry because Gu Hua was the first to think of using this crystal core to save his children and did not choose to save him.

He answered truthfully: “If this crystal core really has the effect of bringing the dead back to life, it should be no problem to cure the poison they were born with.

It’s just that you have to choose which of the four of them to save.”

Gu Hua was stunned.

She instantly understood what Situ Haoran meant, that this crystal core could not save four children.

Gu Hua turned his gaze towards Xiao Junlin.

Xiao Junlin raised the corners of his lips and smiled.

At least his position in this woman’s heart is second only to her children, and that’s enough.

Gu Hua chose four children first. Xiao Junlin was not angry at all. He felt that as long as the children could be cured and live healthy, he would be happier than anyone else.

Because in Xiao Junlin’s heart, the lives of the four children are more important than his own.

“What a waste.” Situ Haoran spoke the truth.

Xiao Junlin said in a cold voice, “Junior brother, why do you think it’s a waste to treat me?”

Situ Haoran moved to the other side of Gu Hua, away from his brother who looked like he was about to bite, and then he said, “Le Le had that young Gu before, and it’s almost grown.

As long as you let one of the four of them go to the Valley of Divine Medicine and recuperate for a period of time, they will be able to draw out the mother parasite in your body, and then your body will be restored.

You are such a grown-up, you can give blood transfusion to whoever you want, why waste such a good crystal core?”

Blood transfusions are harmful to the body, but even if the senior brother ate the crystal core that was said to be able to bring the dead back to life and cured the poison in his body, he would still have to give blood transfusions to several children one after another after he recovered.

This is to eliminate the poison that they were born with. What method can be used to eliminate it? If not, why waste such a good thing.

That’s why Situ Haoran said it was a waste.

Xiao Junlin and Situ Haoran stared blankly at Gu Hua taking away the crystal core, then casually put it on his body, and the crystal core disappeared before their eyes.

“Since it’s a waste, I’ll put it away.” Gu Hua said expressionlessly, as a matter of course.

Xiao Junlin: “…” I am just so unimportant.

Situ Haoran gave him a look that said, “You have no idea what’s going on.”

Then, Situ Haoran was dragged out by Xiao Junlin, who had a cold and resentful look on his face. “Junior brother, I will help Master check whether your martial arts have regressed in the past few years.”

“Master… Senior Brother… She is the one who doesn’t value you. Why are you taking it out on me?”

“Who said I was taking it out on you…”

Xiao Junlin’s calm and steady voice came into the room. Gu Hua raised an eyebrow and ignored the friendly communication between his senior brothers.

He curled his lips, picked up the tea and took a sip.

I think I should be nicer to this guy in the future. After all, he is the blood bank of my children.

Although he is the biological father of the child and has volunteered to do so, as a mother I cannot treat him unfairly, right?
