Chapter 215 Kindness is a sacrifice!
Zhong Li looked at Xiaowen who was blaming himself in front of him and didn't say anything. Instead, he looked at Ding Guo.
"It seems that the target is him."
Ding Guo nodded.
Xiaowen's father was lying on the bed, coughing uncontrollably. Not only that, the prosthetic leg made of wood also became damaged, as if it would fall apart in the next moment.
"It's not your fault, it's because people's hearts have changed. Everyone wants to make a fortune through fire cicada transformation, and the little money from farming can no longer satisfy them."
Liang Yan added some medicine he brought with him to the boiled herbs.
"Give this to your father to drink. It will at least relieve his current symptoms."
Xiaowen gratefully took the medicine bowl, then carefully helped his father drink the medicine.
Ding Guo: "Actually, it's not just the fire cicada that caused all this, but the other side flower!"
Upon hearing the name, Xiaowen's father immediately sat up from the bed excitedly.
"You mean, the legendary Hibiscus flower that can grant any wish!"
Seeing the excitement in Xiaowen's father's eyes, Ding Guo seemed to have become accustomed to it.
Liang Yan: "The flower of the other shore is parasitic in people's hearts. It is said that wherever the flower of the other shore is located, the people around it will be corrupted by it.
So theoretically speaking, as long as we can drive away the Hibiscus flower, the original people will return to normal.
However, if you want to take the Bana Flower out of a person's body, the host will definitely die."
After hearing this news, Xiaowen said subconsciously while repairing his father's prosthetic limb.
"It would be great if we could get rid of the Hibiscus flower and let everyone return to how they were before."
Ding Guo: "I said that if the Bana Flower is removed, the host will definitely die. Do you want that person to die?"
Upon hearing these words, Xiaowen immediately reacted, and the kindness in his heart made him feel extremely guilty.
"No, I didn't mean that!"
Xiaowen's father didn't care about his son's current mood and just kept asking.
"Where is the flower of the other side?"
Ding Guo set his sights on Xiaowen.
"The flower of the other side is in your son's body!"
"What!"
Hearing the news, Xiaowen and his son were amazed. They couldn't believe that the legendary Bianhua flower was parasitic in their (son's) body.
Xiaowen: "No! This is impossible. How can the flower of the other side be in my body?"
Xiaowen's heart was full of rejection. He was extremely scared and didn't believe how the flower of sin could be in his body.
Ding Guo obviously expected something, so he took out a red object and placed it on Xiaowen's forehead.
In an instant, the surrounding scene changed, and everyone was surrounded by a huge Bana flower, and around the holy Bana flower, there were many extremely ugly faces.
The next moment, everyone returned to reality.
Ding Guo looked at the absent-minded Xiaowen and continued to speak.
"I said that the flower of the other shore grows in the human heart, and only the purest heart can cultivate the flower of the other shore. And you are the only good person in this village.
We are here to remove the flowers of the other side. As long as you are willing, after removing the flowers of the other side, this village can change back to what it was before.
But the price is your life! But don’t worry, unless you are completely willing, we will not take your life by force."
At this moment, Xiaowen was suddenly greatly stimulated. When faced with Ding Guo's words, he denied it again and again!
"No! No! Why? Why me? I don't want it, I don't want it!"
Xiaowen rushed outside frantically, and the heavy rain outside quickly soaked his clothes.
Ding Guo and Liang Yan, one sitting at the window and the other standing at the door, looked at Xiaowen kneeling in the heavy rain.
"You should have discovered the village a long time ago, it's abnormal."
Hearing Liang Yan's words, Xiaowen turned around and roared at him!
"How do I know if you want to kill me and get the Flower of the Other Side?"
After hearing Xiaowen's words, Ding Guo sat on the window sill and said calmly.
"I just want you to know whether you are willing or not. If you are willing, I will kill you and take away the flowers.
If you don't want to, I'll leave, and you can just pretend I haven't been here."
Xiaowen: "Why do you say so confidently!"
The angry Xiaowen turned his head and looked at Ding Guo with red eyes because of Ding Guo's words.
He didn't understand why he had to sacrifice himself when he had never done anything bad?
Facing the angry Xiaowen, Ding Guo just said something lightly.
"Kindness is a kind of sacrifice, voluntary sacrifice or being sacrificed by others! So this is not a request or a please. It is just a choice, and I leave this choice to you."
After hearing these words, Xiaowen felt extremely conflicted in his heart.
At this moment, Xiaowen's father limped out of the room.
"Xiaowen, I am already old, and I have lived enough in this life. Think about what this village was like when we first came here.
At that time, whenever someone's family was in trouble, everyone would go to help without hesitation.
And the changes in the village now, are they really what you want to see? Dad doesn’t care anymore in this life, he just wants to see the village of the past before he closes his eyes."
Facing his father's persuasion, Xiaowen's heart was full of reluctance and contradiction. The kindness in his heart wanted him to sacrifice himself to save the village, but the desire for survival in human nature made him want to live."
Just when Xiaowen was extremely conflicted, Zhongli placed a gold coin in front of his eyes.
"If you can't decide for yourself, leave your fate to God.
One is positive and the other is negative. If it is positive, you sacrifice yourself; if it is negative, you preserve yourself."
Xiaowen stretched out his hand and took the gold coin tremblingly. Then he glanced at his father, and then at Zhongli in front of him.
"Boom!"
Xiaowen threw the gold coins into the air and stared at the gold coins rolling in the air. Also staring at the gold coins were his father, Liang Yan and Ding Guo.
But just when the gold coin had reached its highest point and was about to fall, Zhongli grabbed it.
"what are you up to?"
Xiaowen looked at Zhongli in front of him in confusion. The other three people present also cast doubtful eyes on Zhongli.
Zhongli: "You have just made your choice. Whatever the outcome is, just do it according to your heart."
As Zhongli said these words, Xiaowen lowered his head in a daze.
Except for Zhongli, everyone else had their eyes on Xiaowen, waiting for his choice.
Xiaowen: "Let's start, I am willing to sacrifice myself!"
Ding Guo nodded when he heard this, but a trace of greed flashed in Xiaowen's father's eyes.
Xiaowen untied his hair and sat cross-legged in the center of the courtyard.
Ding Guo took out the talisman and started to cast the spell. Spring water gushed out of the talisman and wrapped Xiaowen's whole body in it.
Xiaowen, who was submerged in the spring water, could not breathe and could only gradually close his eyes as the oxygen in his body was consumed.
And when he was dying, he saw his father, who was once in good health, picking fruits from the tree for him.
