In reality, I am unruly, willful, and do things my own way, causing trouble and making many enemies.
So being poisoned in the end was simply karma, a consequence of past actions.
Tang Yu: "..."
This feeling of déjà vu comes from many, many years ago. After enduring pain and despair, do we all like to despise ourselves?
Li Xiangyi hates himself even more at this point in time.
Chapter 7 Lotus Tower 7
Upon arriving at the restaurant, Tang Yu immediately ordered ten of its signature dishes, all of which were the restaurant's best dishes.
Li Xiangyi enjoyed the meal quite a bit. Although his sense of taste had deteriorated somewhat, he could still appreciate the deliciousness.
"It's a pity that there are only delicacies but no fine wine. The wine in this restaurant is quite ordinary and cannot compare to the peach blossom wine of Peach Blossom Restaurant."
These compliments made Tang Yu smile.
"Because my winemaking method was taught to me by a flower fairy. She was very good at winemaking, and that method is unique in the world, so it naturally makes a deep impression."
"Flower Fairy? Someone whom Manager Tang calls a fairy must be quite extraordinary."
Tang Yu laughed at this, but instead of answering the question directly, she changed the subject.
"Li Xiangyi, the poison in your body is very potent, and you will probably suffer a lot when it takes effect."
As an old friend, I'll give you a discount. Give me ten taels of silver, and I'll cure your poison. How about it?
When these seemingly ordinary words were uttered, Li Xiangyi almost dropped the wine glass in his hand.
He looked at the person in front of him with some surprise.
This woman, who appeared out of nowhere, possesses unparalleled beauty, unmatched martial arts skills, and now it seems she also has unmatched medical skills.
His poison is something that no one in the world can cure, yet the person in front of him treats it so casually.
What kind of person is this? It seems like they know everything and are knowledgeable about everything?
"What, you don't believe me? Are you scared out of your wits?"
As soon as Tang Yu said this, Li Xiangyi quickly shook his head.
"No, since you say you can cure the poison, then it must be true."
I just didn't expect you to be so skilled in medicine.
"But after you believed it, you weren't excited or happy. It seemed like you were only shocked and not pleased about it."
You don't want an antidote? You just want to live in this pain for a few years and then die?
Tang Yu's tone was very certain, and Li Xiangyi understood.
He doesn't need to lie to this person, because the person in front of him can see through many things.
No one had recognized him in the past few years, but the person in front of him was certain that he was an extremely intelligent person, and Li Xiangyi could not change the subject at this moment.
"You're right. I don't want to be cured. This is the life I have to live."
Even if it's painful, even if I gradually weaken, even if I eventually lose my five senses, even if I become an idiot?
After Tang Yu asked this question, Li Xiangyi remained silent for a long while before finally uttering this single word with certainty.
"Yes."
"Okay, you're in charge of your own life."
If you are unwilling to undergo detoxification, I will naturally not force you.
"Li Xiangyi, as your old friend, I'm giving you a chance to back out. If you want the antidote in the future, you can come to Peach Blossom Pavilion in Yangzhou to find me."
After saying this, Tang Yu got up and prepared to leave.
As far as she was concerned, Li Xiangyi's life had nothing to do with her; whether he lived or died was entirely his prerogative.
"Are you angry?"
Seeing that Tang Yu was about to leave, Li Xiangyi hesitated for a moment before asking this question.
"I'm not angry, I just don't like spending too much time with someone who suffers from their own suffering."
To me, there are countless beautiful things in this world.
I can travel from Yangzhou to this place thousands of miles away to enjoy the autumn scenery, or go to the north to see the aurora borealis in winter, or go fishing at sea in the southernmost part of the country when I'm bored.
I want my life to be free and happy every day, so I want to stay away from people and things that make me feel depressed.
Because I am a very emotional person, I will not be happy if the people around me are in too much pain.
So, in a corner I can't see, an old friend of mine is suffering and heading towards death, and I won't be sad.
But I probably couldn't bear to watch him suffer such a painful death.
So let's not see each other again, unless you change your mind!
The secret to maintaining a happy life is to stay away from all kinds of painful people and things around you.
Especially those self-destructive people; looking at them for too long can affect your mood.
Li Xiangyi was taken aback by these words.
It was as if he were a plague god.
I thought you would try to persuade me.
Upon hearing this, Tang Yu smiled.
"Li Xiangyi, you need to think carefully about whether you want to face death calmly or just torture yourself to atone for your sins."
Don't use vague language to ask for help from the people of this world, because many of them won't understand.
As for why I didn't advise you, it's because I felt our relationship hadn't reached that point.
I am not your parents, siblings, or even your lover, nor am I even a good friend. I am just an old friend of yours.
As for me, I only care about the people I love, because I care about them, that's why I want them to be happy, and that's why I interfere in their lives!
But your life has nothing to do with mine. I'm just offering to help you from a doctor's perspective, and I'm getting paid for it.
Upon hearing this, Li Xiangyi couldn't help but laugh.
"A person as affectionate and sincere as Manager Tang would surely be a very happy family member for you."
"So you and I are opposites. I can make the people around me happy, while the way you are now will only make your friends and family suffer."
Upon hearing this, Li Xiangyi's face turned deathly pale.
"Although you and Qiao Wanmian have separated, I heard that she has been looking for you for the past few years and will probably not give up until she finds you."
I don't know what the grudge is between you, but I'm afraid Qiao Wanmian is in a lot of pain.
It seems the people at Sigumen don't really care about you, but it's okay if you don't care about them either.
But since you were born into this world, you must have some relatives and friends, right? I don't believe that apart from Qiao Wanmian, there are no people who truly love and care about you. Do those people even know you're still alive? Are they worried about you?
Li Xiangyi, even if you have to choose to die in the end, you still have to give an explanation to those who truly love you.
You didn't spring from a rock; you have no relatives or friends. Take care of yourself.
"But if I caused the death of my own family, how could I have the right to face them?"
This question made Tang Yu take a closer look at the person in front of her.
Is that the one with the lone sword?
I heard that this person was Li Xiangyi's senior brother, and it was because of his death that Li Xiangyi and the Golden Mandarin Duck Alliance were forced into a decisive battle.
"If you have made a mistake, then go back, kneel down and atone for your sins, apologize to your sect, instead of feeling guilty and disappearing for the rest of your life and never daring to admit your mistakes."
A true man dares to act and take responsibility. Changing your name and disappearing, letting the world speculate that you are dead, do you think your family will clap their hands and be happy, thinking you are finally dead?
Do you think the people who once loved you would think it was a good thing you died?
I thought you should understand the personalities of your loved ones, whether they were happy about your death or grieving upon receiving the news.
After saying this, Li Xiangyi did not react for a moment, and Tang Yu took out a flute.
Then, Tang Yu played the vibrant and energetic Forest Rhapsody.
It was a melody full of vitality from nature, like a lively breeze, as if deer were running happily and freely in the forest.
It's as if I can see a babbling brook, with fish swimming in it, sometimes playing among the water plants, sometimes leaping out of the water.
Li Xiangyi closed his eyes, and he seemed to see flowers blooming in the mountains, so splendid and beautiful.
It felt like he had returned to many, many years ago, to his carefree childhood.
In the mountains, he ran all over the place, catching birds in the trees, catching fish in the river, and chasing butterflies among the flowers...
Li Xiangyi was completely absorbed in it; he was so captivated by this blissful experience that he didn't want to wake up...
When Li Xiangyi opened his eyes again, the person in front of him was gone, and there was only a bottle of peach blossom wine on the table.
Then there was another note.
"This is the peach blossom wine I'm giving you."
Li Xiangyi opened the bottle, took a sip of wine, and couldn't help but laugh.
Chapter 8 Lotus Tower 8
After hunting several foxes and tigers in the mountains, Li Xiangyi took the pelts to a merchant to exchange for money and made himself an extremely thick suit of clothing.
Then, he set off northwards.
Li Xiangyi had already experienced the fishing trip at sea that Tang Yu mentioned.
In this world, spring brings a profusion of flowers, summer brings lotus blossoms reflecting the sun, autumn brings fiery forests, and winter brings plum blossoms proudly braving the snow—Li Xiangyi has seen all of these.
The only thing he had ever seen was the aurora borealis, which he had only read about in books. Li Xiangyi suddenly wanted to see it for himself.
