【Sell one year of your lifespan, and you will receive 300,000. Yes or No?】
【Purchase one year of lifespan, and you will pay 1,000,000. Yes or No?】

"Eat whatever you want to eat."
Jianghai City.
First People's Hospital.
The attending physician put down the test report, his tone as calm as possible.
But everyone could hear the underlying meaning in his words.
Acute lung wither disease is a new type of infectious disease that suddenly broke out in the last two years.
It has a rapid onset and an extremely high mortality rate. Most terrifyingly, even now, the entire world has not found a truly effective treatment.
Once diagnosed, it is basically equivalent to a death sentence.
"Dr. Li, could there be... some mistake?"
Chen Fan gripped the diagnosis report in his hand, his voice a bit dry.
He had graduated from university two years ago and was twenty-four this year.
He worked overtime every day, and although his salary wasn't high,
he had always felt that his future was still very, very long.
But now...
he was suddenly being told he was going to die?
The attending physician, Director Li Guohua, fell silent for a moment.
"The nucleic acid results, lung CT, and blood indicators all match."
"The probability of a misdiagnosis is very low."
"Go ahead and admit yourself to the hospital first. You will need isolation treatment later."
Chen Fan opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.
The other patients and their families in the clinic also looked over one after another.
Some felt sympathetic, some felt pity, and others quietly took a few steps back.
Although lung wither disease only has a chance of becoming contagious in its late stages, no one was willing to take the risk.
In the crowd,
an elegantly dressed middle-aged woman sighed softly.
Her hair was meticulously combed, and she wore a priceless jade bracelet on her wrist, indicating a wealthy family background.
At this moment, holding the prescription for special-needs medicine she had just received, she couldn't help but feel a bit of pity in her eyes as she looked at Chen Fan's young face.
Because her husband was also a lung wither disease patient, relying on expensive imported medicine every day to survive, costing tens of thousands per injection.
But even so, it was still powerless to reverse the situation, only delaying the inevitable.
Thinking of this, the middle-aged woman's eyes grew even dimmer.
So what if they had money?
Faced with a terminal illness, they were still completely helpless.
Chen Fan silently stepped aside and glanced at his phone balance.
Between his bank card and , he had a little over a thousand yuan left in total.
It probably wouldn't even be enough for a single day's hospitalization fee.
His chest felt as though a heavy stone was pressing down on it.
It was so heavy that it made it hard to breathe.
However, just as he was in a daze, his mind completely blank,
suddenly, a cold, mechanical voice rang out in his mind!
【Ding!】
【Host detected!】
【Lifespan Trading System binding...】
Chen Fan's body suddenly stiffened.
What was that voice?
He subconsciously looked around.
The people around him seemed completely oblivious.
【Ding! Binding successful!】
【Agent permissions unlocked!】
【The lifespan treasure App has been successfully installed!】
"Agent?"
Chen Fan's pupils suddenly contracted.
This is... a system?!
As an old web novel bookworm, he naturally knew what this was.
But the problem was... how could such a thing happen in the real world?
Could he be the protagonist?
"lifespan treasure?"
Chen Fan subconsciously pulled out his phone to check.
With just one glance, his breathing quickened.
It really existed!
On his previously blank phone screen, an unfamiliar app had appeared.
A golden hourglass icon with an ancient character for "Longevity" carved in the center. The app name: 【lifespan treasure】
Chen Fan took a deep breath.
He tapped open the app.
He didn't even need to register.
As soon as it opened, a notification immediately popped up.
【Authentication successful.】
【Welcome, Agent: Chen Fan.】
Chen Fan continued reading down.
The app's interface was extremely simple.
There were only five modules in total.
【Personal Information】
【lifespan Trading】
【System Mall】
【Platform Announcement】
【Stay Tuned】
Chen Fan subconsciously tapped on Personal Information.
Soon, a panel appeared before his eyes.
【Name: Chen Fan】
【Age: 24】
【Assets: 1,234.56 RMB】
【Life Rating: B】
【Health Status: Severe Exhaustion】
【Remaining lifespan: 1 month and 3 days】
Seeing the last line of information, Chen Fan fell silent.
He really was... not long for this world!
At this moment, the voice in his mind rang out once more.
【Ding!】
【Agent Gift Pack has been distributed.】
【Congratulations, you have obtained a base lifespan of: 1 year.】
【Congratulations, you have obtained promotion opportunities: 100 times.】
Boom!
Before Chen Fan could react,
a warm current suddenly surged from the depths of his heart, like sweet rain falling upon parched land, quickly flowing throughout his entire body.
His lungs, which had been burning with pain, began to recover. His breathing became smooth, and his limbs regained their strength.
In just a few short seconds, Chen Fan felt as though a set of shackles had been lifted from his body, bringing an indescribable sense of comfort.
He tried moving his body, feeling incredibly light and relaxed all over.
How did he look even the slightest bit like a sick person now?
He couldn't help but look at the panel again.
【Remaining lifespan: 1 year, 1 month, and 3 days】
Seeing the change in the numbers, Chen Fan was so excited he could barely contain himself.
Had he really bound with a system?!
It seemed like he didn't have to die?!
Chen Fan quickly suppressed the excitement in his heart.
His gaze fell upon the second function on the home page.
【lifespan Trading】
Without hesitation, he tapped directly into it.
The page refreshed, and a line of small text appeared at the very top.
【Current Active Users: 0】
Below it, the page was divided into two sections.
【Sell lifespan】
【Purchase lifespan】
Chen Fan tapped on the "Agent's Guidelines" prompt in the top right corner.
【The main business of lifespan treasure is lifespan trading.】
【Users can sell their lifespan to acquire wealth.】
【Users can purchase lifespan to prolong their lives.】
Seeing this, Chen Fan's gaze narrowed slightly.
Life could actually be bought and sold?
He immediately tapped open the detailed rules.
【When a user purchases lifespan, the agent can take a 10% commission of the transaction amount.】
【When a user sells lifespan, the agent can take a 10% commission of the transacted lifespan.】
【All transactions are guaranteed and executed by the system.】
After reading the introduction, Chen Fan's heart skipped a beat.
Buying and selling lifespan?
The weight of these words was somewhat beyond his comprehension!
If lifespan could really be bought and sold...
then the world order would probably be rewritten!
Gold? Oil?
In the face of lifespan, they would probably all have to take a back seat!
More importantly!
He was... the agent!
He could get a 10% cut from every single transaction!
If someone spent money to buy life, he would skim money.
If someone sold lifespan, he would skim lifespan.
Chen Fan's breathing instantly became rapid.
Just then, the system prompt rang out again.
【Current available promotions: 100.】
【Use immediately?】
Chen Fan quickly checked the explanation.
The more he read, the brighter his eyes shone.
The so-called promotion meant that the system would precisely filter target groups and directly install 【lifespan treasure】 onto their phones!
No consent required!
No authorization required!
Forced installation!
And it cannot be uninstalled!
There were only two types of target groups for the promotion.
One was people who needed to buy life.
The other was people who were willing to sell life.
Chen Fan's heart couldn't help but pound wildly.
"Use!"
【Ding!】
【Used successfully.】
【Waiting for user activation.】
