Seeking Immortality

The weather was dry and the cigarette butts accidentally discarded at the intersection of Jiuhua eventually led to a tragedy. Feng Qingtian's house happened to be in the center of the fire, and it burned particularly violently. The huge red flames lit up the evening sky. When blown by the wind, from a distance, it looked like a crazy phoenix dancing wildly. Fortunately, it was discovered in time, and the fire truck arrived quickly to prevent the fire from spreading, and rescued Feng Qingtian, who was seriously injured, from danger.

The news reached Jin Qinghan's ears in the middle of the night. He hurriedly said goodbye to the company's celebration reception and rushed to the hospital for a visit. Because of his arrival, Feng Qingtian was immediately moved to the only top VIP intensive care unit in the hospital. After all, Jin Qinghan's family is rich, contrary to his name. His family has been running jewelry and gold shops for generations, so it is more than enough to take care of a "friend". In addition, they had just sold a pure gold Buddha statue with three eyes and six arms, and they wanted to give Feng Qingtian the best care and treatment at all costs. This was in line with a rumor in the gossip media: Feng Qingtian was the former boss of the Jin family. The illegitimate son and Jin Qinghan are basically half-brothers. The proof is that they both have the word "Qing" in their real names...

Jin Qinghan never intended to deny the rumors, because they were indeed true. Now that their elders are gone, they are their only relatives in the world, so their relationship is deeper than that of ordinary brothers. Looking at his unconscious younger brother who was wrapped into a rice dumpling, Jin Qinghan was really panicking. He asked the doctor and learned that the day after an injury is the most difficult for patients to survive. He wanted to do more for Feng Qingtian, but he had no idea. At this time, I remembered that an old Chinese doctor said that people who are seriously injured should stay close to flowers and plants. Firstly, the air can be kept fresh at all times; secondly, the fragrance of flowers and plants can strengthen the body and dispel evil spirits, making people feel calm and at ease, as if they are in a natural place, and the injury will heal faster. So Jin Qinghan hurried out of the hospital to buy flowers, hoping to buy them before the flower shop closed.

It was getting late, and there were no twinkling stars. Only half of the dim moon hung above the head, making the sky and earth look dirty. Jin Qinghan panicked and didn't choose a way out, so he rushed into the shop called "Xu Fan Zhenqi Flower Shop" without even seeing the "Closing for Business and Rectification" notice posted outside the door.

"Boss, I want to buy flowers, boss!"

After hearing Jin Qinghan's two greetings, an expressionless clerk stuck his head out and answered skillfully: "Visiting a patient? One hundred yuan a flower, take it yourself."

"One hundred yuan... okay." Although Jin Qinghan felt it was a bit expensive, he didn't care too much. He looked through his wallet and found that the cash he brought out was only more than a thousand yuan. "Then I want ten flowers first."

Putting down the note, Jin Qinghan picked ten of the brightest-looking flowers, turned around and left, thinking that he would put them into the vase later, and it didn't matter whether they were packaged or not. This rip-off store only bought ten flowers, which is a bit too little. Wait until you go to the ATM to withdraw some money and buy them again at another store.

The clerk counted the tickets, with a sinister smile on his expressionless face, and said to himself: "This drunken goat has chosen well. As expected, the 'Explosive Flame Flower' is more conspicuous, hehe."

He watched with gloating as Jin Qinghan turned the corner, and suddenly there were several "bang bang dong dong" explosions in the quiet night sky... Jin Qinghan soon returned to the flower shop, his evening dress was blown to pieces. He fell, and there were several wounds on his hand. He said to the clerk in a daze: "Boss, why are the flowers just now... gone? Okay, it seems like they will explode..."

"Ha! What are you talking about? Flowers will explode? Guest, I think you are drunk."

Jin Qinghan thought to himself that the boss was right. How could the flowers explode when they were so good? He must have drank too much at the cocktail party and was worried that his brother would be seriously injured and die, so he had hallucinations. So I took the flower stems and talked nicely to the boss to discuss: "Can you give me some other flowers in exchange?"

"The profit in this store is small, and there are no returns or exchanges once it is sold. You can buy it again. If you don't have money, just exchange it for a cheaper one. But let me tell you, at this time, I am the only flower shop within a few kilometers that is still open. You can You can’t buy it anywhere else.”

Jin Qinghan may have been stunned. He was so dizzy that he couldn't think of any details: "It's okay if you don't want to change it. I'll withdraw the money. Boss, please help me choose some beautiful ones." He stumbled out of the door and looked for an ATM. .

The boss looked at his back and smiled: "Want me to help you choose? Well, I'll keep it for you and you'll have to do it again later."

Jin Qinghan spent thousands and took back dozens of beautiful white and pink flowers. He lowered his head and smelled them, and the fragrance was fragrant. I thought that the shop owner was the most knowledgeable. Although flowers like this are not very bright, they are more elegant and perfect for visiting patients. I rushed towards the hospital in a hurry, but I never thought that branches would suddenly grow, and the evening wind would blow by, and all the big flowers in my hand would be blown away, not even half of the petals were left. It was really faster than a dandelion. Jin Qinghan was shocked and chased him all the way, running for most of the street. In the end, he couldn't get anything back. He was dejected and had to go back to the flower shop.

"Boss, boss, that... the flowers are gone again, what should I say?"

When the boss heard this, he stared fiercely: "Nonsense! Who asked you to protect me carelessly? Mine is called 'Piaoxuhua', which is very precious. How can I tolerate a reckless man like you? , Did you deserve it?”

"Ah? Then...I don't know much about flowers and plants..."

The boss rolled his eyes: "I don't know how to learn how to do it! How about it, what flowers do you want to buy this time?"

Jin Qinghan accepted his fate, so he paid more. Anyway, money is nothing to brotherhood: "Boss, please bring me flowers that won't explode or fly away this time."

"Okay! Since you are my old customer, I'll give you a discount." The boss turned around and chuckled twice, and quickly picked up a pile of unknown lavender flowers, "Here, this one is called 'love flower', it is guaranteed not to explode or fly away."

Jin Qinghan was not very reassured, so he took one out and threw it to the ground, picked it up and blew a few times: "Yeah, it really won't explode or fly away." So he went to the hospital with satisfaction.

But he never expected that before he walked two hundred meters, the flower in his hand had problems again. The love flower suddenly released a burst of mist, which wrapped Jin Qinghan in the street.

"Ouch! Why are my hands and feet numb? What is this mist... cough cough cough, help, help, someone come to save me..." In less than half a minute, even his mouth was numb, and he couldn't shout out a sound, and he couldn't even close his open mouth. After a while, he lost his balance and fell again, hitting his face directly on the newly bought flowers, and a few flowers were stuffed in his mouth and nostrils. Strangely enough, after the fall, the numbness gradually disappeared, and he was finally able to move again with trepidation.

This time, Jin Qinghan was really angry. He thought to himself that it was fortunate that the love flower took effect quickly and poisoned him. If it was slower, wouldn’t it have harmed my brother?

Although he was very honest by nature, Jin Qinghan finally realized that everything was the work of the flower shop owner. In order to make more dirty money, the flowers sold were never usable. In anger, he threw away the harmful love flower and went back to the shop to settle the account angrily.

Seeing the man coming back in a rage, the boss sneered twice: "There is no such thing as a third time. This rich man has finally been ripped off by me. But if he wants to cause trouble, he is still a little naive. Maybe he will have to pay back some more money."

Jin Qinghan rushed into the store without saying much, and said: "Boss! This is a black shop, I will sue you!"

"What? Sue me? I am not open for business. Didn't you see the sign at the door saying "Closed for rectification"? We are illegal transactions in the first place, and the law does not protect us at all, hahaha." The boss is good at this, and he choked the other party to death with a simple sentence.

Jin Qinghan has been in business for generations, and has always upheld credibility and fairness in business norms. He has never seen such a bad dealer. He shouted "bastard" in anger and clenched his fist to teach the flower shop owner a lesson.

The boss lowered his head and dodged a punch, pointing to the surveillance camera above his head: "Look carefully, you started it first, don't blame me for self-defense." As he said that, he pulled the curtain rope, and he didn't know what mechanism was activated, and several curtains blocked the door and windows. Jin Qinghan looked carefully and found that it was not a cloth curtain, but a thorny vine.

The boss took out a willow branch and said: "'Whip Willow' whips people the most neatly, it's your bad luck to mess with me. Hey! You have to pay at least 18,000 yuan for demolishing my store. If you don't pay it today, don't even think about leaving this door."

Buddha fights for a burner of incense, people fight for a breath, and a few tens of thousands of yuan can only be regarded as change in Jin Qinghan's eyes, but how can he admit defeat now? Seeing that the boss was holding a weapon in his hand, he would definitely suffer a loss if he fought hard, but he didn't believe that he couldn't leave. It wouldn't be too late to deal with this black-hearted boss after he got out. He snorted heavily, pushed open the vine curtain at the door with his hand and rushed out.

"Hey! I told you not to go out, why don't you believe me? Even if the 'poisonous vine' can't stop you, I still have a backup plan, hahaha."

Jin Qinghan felt a chill in his palms, and felt that his blood was being sucked away. Not only that, the vine climbed up his arm like a snake, and it became tighter and tighter. "You evil vampire! I'll fight you!" Jin Qinghan gritted his teeth, regardless of the damage to his skin and flesh, and pulled his arm out, barely getting rid of the entanglement. The price was that the barbs opened several deep bloody wounds, and the blood from the wounds immediately rushed out.

At this time, a pot of giant flowers placed in the corner seemed to be attracted by the smell of blood and suddenly moved. It opened its upper and lower petals, revealing a mouthful of tiny sharp teeth, and started to bite the air. Jin Qinghan was terrified. He didn't need the boss's reminder to know that it was the world-famous "piranha plant". Once it bit, not even skin and bones would be left. What kind of person you are, what kind of flower you plant. Fortunately, the "piranha plant" had a short growth period and its rhizome was not long enough, so it missed being bitten by three or five centimeters.

The boss shook his head regretfully, and said gloatingly: "The camera recorded everything. So far, I haven't moved a finger. You asked for everything. It's a pity that the piranha plant is a few inches shorter, otherwise you can go and get a disability certificate now."

Jin Qinghan didn't care about his embarrassing situation. He rolled on the ground and barely got out of the store. "Hmph! Hmph! Just wait, I will never let your black shop continue to harm people..."

"Why are you still being stubborn? What can you do to me? Does Zhang Hualing know? The mayor of Jiuhua District is a treacherous NPC representative (also a NPC representative), my brother-in-law. Haha, the masses complained hundreds of times, but in the end, it was just a notice of rectification. That's it. Leave compensation and I will let you go. Don't think I can't do anything to you after you leave the house."

"You are dreaming!"

"What? You still don't believe it, okay! Dog!" Seeing that Jin Qinghan was no longer within the range of the camera, the boss was even more unscrupulous. With a wave of his hand, an adult blue-eyed cloud-kicking beast jumped out from the dark corner of the street. It ran and barked "woof woof" and bit Jin Qinghan's calf. Its temperament was even more ferocious than that of a Tibetan mastiff...

"Wow--" The sad cry resounded through the night sky.

…In the morning, Feng Qingtian finally woke up from his injuries. He blinked and found that the patient in the bed opposite him looked very familiar. After careful identification, he was shocked and cried out: "Brother! What happened to you!"

"No, nothing, I was bitten by a blue-eyed cloud-kicking beast raised by a man named 'Xu Fan Flower Shop'. I have reported the case and am preparing to sue him. Ouch! This hurts!"

Feng Qingtian glared: "What? I went to burn that flower shop to avenge my brother. I am the God of Fire, I am the God of Fire!"

"Ah? Burning again? Poor brother Feng, you were scared out of your mind by the disaster last night, right?"

Jin Qinghan, regardless of his injuries, struggled to prop himself up to observe his brother. He saw that his eyes were excited and a little confused. At this moment, the nurse pushed the door open with a bouquet of flowers. She said, "A man named Xu Fan has sent you flowers. I've never seen this kind of flower before. He said it's called 'Six-ring Flower'."

Jin Qinghan was seriously injured and was slow to react. He waited until the nurse left before he exclaimed, "I don't want this thing! Someone come! Take it away, take it away!"

"Boom!" A loud noise came from the ICU, and the whole hospital heard it.

The doctors and nurses rushed to see what was going on. They saw Feng Qingtian laughing, "I told you I'm the God of Fire, but you still don't believe me, hahahaha." Jin Qinghan took out his mobile phone with a gloomy face, dialed a number, and said, "Hire two killers. I'm going to enforce justice today!"
