"Please help my a-die to regain his golden core. Please bless my grandmother a peaceful afterlife."
Sizhui closed his eyes and prayed in his mind. And silently tied the ribbon.
Jingyi, the man of words really went for his long term wish and tied the ribbon more sternly! "Break that rule stone and regain the peace of the country."
His wooden wish board has a word "find the peace!" On it!

Xueyang came inside the bamboo house with a basket full of fresh loquats.
"Kid, at least eat these. Ok?" He threw a loquat into the younger one's hand. "You are being like this for the whole day."
"Yang ge, how can I eat while my big brother is lying like this?" a-zhen looked at the motionless white figure on the bed. His eyes became more gloomy.
"Aaah! I miss his nagging." Xueyang quickly regained his usual face and tried to joke. He reached out for the loquat from the latter's hand and began to remove it's outer skin.
"But if we want to look after this monk, then we must have the strength. For that we should eat something, right? Here... Eat this."
He didn't wait for a-zhen's opinion but directly shoved it into his mouth. So the boy finally ate some food. Taking the opportunity, xueyang continued his forceful feed including meat jerky which he hidden in his hands! The latter didn't got the time for a rejection! He silently glared at this hooligan with teary eyes.
After the feeding, xueyang stretched! "Now, tell me what we are going to do. Did you find anything?"
"I... I don't know much. But I remember what I read in one of the books left by our father. From those narrations, I think it's caused by blind lizard venom. It may not be the most lethal venom out there. But since it's extracted from the galbladder of a type of dragon lizards from the valley of eastern hills, it's quite rare and troublesome. And I fear my skills..." a-zhen looked down dejectedly.
They ran all over through the entire yunmeng city yesterday night. But no doctors can treat Xingchen. They said they can't wake up him. Even if some miracle happens, he will end up blind for sure.
Xueyang let out a deep sigh. "Don't feel dejected. Since you read it somewhere, I am sure there will be a cure also."
"I researched every books here. I didn't found that one." a-zhen looked at his brother again. "Big brother told me that our father always told him this. If there is a poison whether it's lethal or minor, then there is a cure also. It's just a matter of time. Time decides once fate."
He looked at Xueyang. "Yang ge, let's fight forward. There is another locker also left for searching. It's inside big brother's room."
"You are saying, that book is in there?" Xueyang looked at him. He quickly stood up.
"But I can't open it. It can't be unlocked!" a-zhen pouted.
"Aaah this taoist! Did he secretly locked a vengeful spirit in there?" Xueyang cursed the vegetative Xingchen! "Or gold? Silver? No right? He is not that kind of person!"
"You also heard there is an unknown divine doctor in country yang, right? I will go and meet that grandma." Xueyang took another decision.
Xiao Liangzhen don't want to lose his another brother also. What if something happen like this again when he go out alone? He stopped the latter and thought for a moment.
"That can't do. If you go, then all of us will go together. But before that, let's open that locker. It may be inconvenient but still..."
"That's right. Let's break it first. Make up next." Xueyang also agreed.
