Qiu Tang had now reached the west side, where a wooden bed was placed against the wall.
Lying on it was a person, who looked like an elderly man with special effects makeup, genuinely skin and bones, seemingly unclothed except for a thin blanket covering him, exposing two frighteningly slender arms draped by the bedside, resembling a real skeleton.
Upon witnessing this scene, Xia Xin felt a slight fear in his heart; it was the first time he had seen a living person like this.
If it weren't for the slight rise and fall of the old man's exposed chest occasionally, he would have thought it was a skeleton corpse.
"Third Great-Uncle, how is your health?" Qiu Tang walked to the bedside, frowned as he saw the Third Great-Uncle's appearance, "Why have you lost so much weight again?"
The Third Great-Uncle's eyelids twitched, and after much effort, those heavily drooping eyelids lifted, revealing a pair of cloudy eyes inside, almost devoid of irises.
"Tang Tang?"
