But when Zhou's father woke up, he felt indescribably tired all over, as if he had done excessive exercise before going to bed and could not rest well, as if his body was filled with lead.

Could it be the aftereffect of taking the elixir? Father Zhou endured the heaviness of his body and stood up. He felt sore here and there, his legs and feet were not in good condition, and even his back could not straighten up!

Father Zhou was puzzled, but he thought that Madam Qiu was a person who kept her word. Behind her was General Wu, who had many powerful contract masters. It was impossible for the Zhou family to exchange a huge star for a fake medicine.

His eyes were still full of joy, and he couldn't wait to walk to the mirror to see how he looked when he was younger.

But he was shocked by himself in the mirror. He looked tired, with dark circles under his eyes, some stubble, and looked haggard and old, as if he had not slept all night.

Father Zhou frowned. He was very familiar with the comfortable feeling after swallowing the medicine an hour ago. There must be nothing wrong with the Rejuvenation Pill. Perhaps he had consumed too much mental energy in refining the medicinal power.

After washing up, he did look much more energetic, except for the dark bags under his eyes. Should he look younger?

After all, the rejuvenation elixir takes a long time to take effect. He should be getting younger day by day now, and it will take two hundred years for him to become the person he was two hundred years ago.

Father Zhou stretched his limbs to get rid of the stiffness in his body. As expected, he felt much better. He walked out with a smile to attend the charity auction.

Zhou Nan paced the room anxiously. He didn't expect that his father had done so many small things to prevent his grandfather from waking up. He even suspected that his father was involved in his grandfather's critical illness and coma.

The more this happened, the more guilty he felt towards the old man. But now he couldn't go out, so how could he contact Madam Qiu?

Suddenly, he heard someone shouting, "The old master has woken up!" followed by a series of footsteps.

He knocked on the door quickly, "Is my grandpa awake? Open the door quickly, I want to go see grandpa. My dad just doesn't let me go out, he didn't say I can't see grandpa. Be careful, I will tell grandpa that you listen to my dad and keep me away..."

The guards can't do anything. Before the old man woke up, Zhou's father had the final say. Now that the old man has woken up, everything in the family is still decided by the old patriarch!

Zhou Nan trotted all the way to the old man's room. The doctors were all around him doing a physical examination. They were all amazed and said, "It's a miracle. The old master had multiple blood clots in his brain arteries and many nerves around him, so the surgery was difficult... We thought it would be difficult for him to wake up... and his organs were rapidly aging and deteriorating. How come all his indicators are normal in just a few days?"

"If we weren't on standby all the time, we would have thought that you, the old master, had been replaced!"

"It must be that the medicine that the young master asked for the old patriarch has worked..."

The old man frowned, "Old Patriarch?"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly explained: "You have been in a coma for more than fourteen years, and it has always been the family...it has always been Mr. Wen who has been the acting head of the Zhou family..."

The old man snorted softly. Seeing Zhou Nan running over sweating, he smiled and waved at him, "Good boy, you are worthy of being my grandson! I know everything. It was you who kept asking for medicine for me. Otherwise, I might have continued to sleep and would have been taken away by the god of death in just a few years."

Zhou Nan shook his head blankly, then he thought of something and nodded slowly, "Grandpa, how do you feel now?"

Grandpa Zhou said cheerfully, "I feel very comfortable. I haven't felt this comfortable for a long time. If you hadn't told me that I had been in a coma for fourteen years, I would have thought I had only slept for fourteen hours." He stood up and walked around the room twice without anyone's help. "My legs and feet are light, my waist is strong, and I don't feel any pain. What kind of medicine is this?"

"I heard it's a longevity elixir?" a doctor said with emotion.

What they thought was that Zhou Nan saw Ren Ye taking the longevity pill, so he thought of bringing the old man along to ask for medicine.

"The Patriarch is in very poor health. He doesn't look as young as the Patriarch of the Ren Family. It seems that all the power of the medicine has been used to repair the Patriarch's body..."

"The elixir is so magical..."

The old man was delighted to hear this and couldn't help asking Zhou Nan, "Nan'er, can the longevity pill help your grandfather live a few more years?"

Zhou Nan had no idea what was going on. He was sure that he had only asked for a pill, and it was intercepted and eaten by his biological father. How did the old man wake up and become healthy again?

He shook his head to indicate that he didn't know.

No matter what, the old man was feeling too comfortable now and didn't want to stay here. When he heard that the medicine was obtained from Madam Qiu and that a charity banquet was being held, he hurried over with Zhou Nan, who was still confused.

When they arrived, the charity meeting had already started, so they found a seat and sat down.

At this moment, Zhou Nan's signal was restored, and he could not wait to tell Qiu Ling about his doubts. "Mrs. Qiu, the medicine I asked for from you was stolen by someone, so why did my grandfather wake up and his broken body recover within an hour?"

Qiu Ling looked at the message, chuckled and raised his eyebrows, "Do you still remember the instructions I gave you? This rejuvenation pill is made with precious spiritual medicine, and some talismans and heavenly rules are also added. Different people take it, and it follows different rules, and the effect is also different.

I guess your grandfather is in good health because someone sacrificed his life span so that he can enjoy the benefits of the Rejuvenation Pill! "

Zhou Nan never felt stupid. He humbly asked for advice: "Mrs. Qiu, I'm sorry, I still don't quite understand."

"To put it simply, spiritual medicine can make people healthy and increase their lifespan within a certain range, at most by a few decades. The Rejuvenation Pill contains some of the laws of heaven, so the effect is enhanced and can increase lifespan by 400 years. If your lifespan exceeds 300 years, it is defying heaven and changing your fate... I took out this pill because I saw that you were honest and gave me a star body...

There are two situations in which this rejuvenation pill can work. The first is to do good deeds and exchange blessings for life. The second is for someone to sacrifice his or her own life.

You can regard the rules of heaven as a deal with heaven."

Zhou Nan looked at it for a long time before he tapped the key: "So, it was my father who sacrificed his 400 years of life?"

"If he took the pill, then it would be him!"

Zhou Nan was confused again. Didn’t his father end up losing more than he gained, and the one who cheated him was his own son?

"Madam Qiu, although my father has many faults, isn't it too serious to make him sacrifice 400 years of his life? Is there anything I can do to make him sacrifice less of his life?"

Qiu Ling curled his lips, "Of course, he can do good deeds in exchange for life."

Seeing this, Zhou Nan breathed a sigh of relief. As long as there is hope, it's fine!
