Spring.

In the early morning, the ice and snow in the mountains have not yet melted, sparsely covered in the reborn grass and trees, and a ray of new sun falls on the forest, shining on the mottled shadows.

The woman carried a frame of herbs on her back and stood on the top of the cliff.

She silently looked at the city far away from the cliff, stretched out her hand to wipe the fine beads of sweat from her forehead, and looked indifferent.

The spring is cold, and the wind and frost on the cliffs are cold. Her thin clothes fluttered slightly in the cold wind, and a fleeting loneliness flashed on her beautiful face.

She straightened her hair that had been blown up, jumped up, stepped on the wind and fell towards the bottom of the mountain, and danced against the wind in white clothes, like a fairy nine days away.

At the foot of the mountain is a valley with a light mist, a green bamboo forest, surrounded by a lake of clear water, and an elegant dwelling stands by the lake.

The spring outside the valley is cold, but the climate in the valley is pleasant, and the flowers are blooming everywhere.

The woman in white hurriedly walked into the house with a frame of medicinal herbs. In the innermost room, there was a simple bed, on which lay a man.

She took a handkerchief and wiped the face of the man on the bed lightly, the man did not react, Qingjun's face had no expression, it seemed to be asleep, but there was no breath of the living.

There was a bitterness in her heart, three years, he had been so asleep for three years, but he had never woken up.

Three years ago, in the Maple Leaf Forest, she was already dying, and the lord was unconscious, but when she woke up, she found that she was in a strange place, and she was not dead.

She awoke, but the lord was still asleep, like a living dead who had lost his breath.

It was an old man who saved her three years ago.

The old man claimed to be the heir of Saihuatuo, so he said that he would also accept her as an apprentice, and he also threatened the lord, saying that as long as she agreed to be his apprentice, he would not touch the sword and hurt people's lives from now on......

She agreed, and there was nothing to hesitate about, as long as he could survive.

Just as she was dying, an old man's lazy voice came from outside the door: "Wuyou, go to Shili Town to get some wine for the master......

She frowned, turned around in displeasure, and saw her great master half-lying on the herb shelf, lazily basking in the sun.

Her brows furrowed even deeper, and she said, "I only came back from two pounds yesterday......"

"That...... Last night, the wine was good, and I accidentally drank it all......" The old man pulled his long gray beard in embarrassment, and smiled flatteringly.

She was silent, but sat down on the stone bench in the courtyard, tilting her head to the side, as if she was angry.

When the old man saw that she was indifferent, he began to be anxious, and jumped off the shelf with a kick; He had a lot of wine worms in his stomach, and he was about to die of hunger, but this girl ignored him.

"You don't have to worry, if the master says that he can save him, he can save him."

The old man comforted her, glanced at her quietly by the way, and guessed a rough idea.

She can't hide her thoughts.

Wuyou's face sank, he turned his head and glared at his master, and said angrily: "But it's been three years, and he still can't live or die." ”

"Well...... If you bring the wine back, maybe he'll be fine......"

The old man grinned, and his beard trembled.

Wuyou's face darkened again, and he immediately became angry, "Why didn't you say that!" ”

"Okay, okay, let's go get a drink, the master promises this time, he will definitely not lie to my good boy."

The old man smiled brightly, and at the same time pushed Wuyou out, a posture of driving her away.

She couldn't help it, so she had no choice but to go to the town with a suffocating stomach.

Perhaps, she has become accustomed to the way her master looks, and she is forced to obey by saying the same thing every time. Let her study medicine, the master said so, let her go up the mountain to collect medicine, the master also said the same, let her cook and drink, the master still said so......

She understands that the poison of the Seven Star Begonia is an incurable poison in the world, and since she has studied medical skills for the past three years, she has become more aware of the truth.

Even Brother Leng is helpless, how can it be so easy?

The master has done his best, and it is already a blessing in misfortune to be able to save the lord's life.

When she returned, it was getting late.

But feeling that the room was deserted, she felt that something was wrong, so she put the wine jar on the table and walked quickly into the room.

In the house, Mo Yunkai was still asleep, and there seemed to be no change, she looked at him for a while, was she too careful?

Just entering the house gave her a feeling of unease, because she was thinking too much.

She couldn't help but smile, sat at the head of the bed, and reached out to touch his slightly twisted brow.

She didn't know if he would be happy or sad if he woke up one day and found that he was still alive.

But she understood that instead of letting him live like the living dead, he would definitely choose to die.

Her hand inadvertently touched his face, and the warm touch came, and she withdrew her hand as if frightened, and the joy in her eyes could not help but be revealed.

He even has a body temperature!

"Master! Master! ”

She ran around the house in surprise and shouted loudly to the master, he had a body temperature, and she was overjoyed.

"Don't shout, it's noisy......"

The old man was still lying on the medicine shelf, and waved his hand weakly.

"Master, he is saved, saved." She shouted happily, and a smile appeared on her face.

"I know, look at the ...... that makes you happy"

The old man sat up from the medicine shelf slowly, and shook his head at the smiling apprentice.

As soon as he moved, he got down from the herb shelf, but instead of jumping down, he fell hard.

Wu Youyou was startled, and hurriedly stepped forward to help, touching his wrist, but his hands were cold.

"Master, you ......" she was stunned.

The old man just smiled brightly and muttered, "Good apprentice, this time, master, but it's a matter of words......

"But......" she stared at the old man in disbelief, still not knowing what to say.

I saw that the old man just shook his head fearlessly, "The poison of the Seven Star Begonia can only be solved by exchanging the master for the master, and the master is old, so he only looks for this solution." ”

She only felt that her heart was blocked, and tears fell.

"I knew I was going to take my life, why did he and I need you to save me? You keep saying that you won't let me touch the sword again, and you won't hurt people's lives anymore, and now you don't call me to kill people......"

"Nonsense, when did you kill someone? The master is old and can save someone's life, which is always good. ”

"Then you are dead, who will be my master......" She only cared about shouting to the master, but she couldn't cry anymore.

"Don't cry all the time, it's like crying, I haven't closed my eyes yet...... Go and go, get a drink for the master, and finally let me take two more sips......"

The old man pushed her hard, and there was no blood on his face.

She cried and cried, and still obediently went to fetch the wine.

The old man drank wine and gave her some words, but he didn't pay any attention to it, she cried like a fool.

That night, the moon was round and the wind was cold.

She cried and drank wine with her master all night, and when it was dawn, she woke up.

But the master, who had only been her for three years, was drunk forever and never woke up......

She cried and buried her master by the lake, Mo Yunkai woke up early the next morning, got up and came outside the house, but saw her crying at a newly raised tomb.

He looked at her and felt like yesterday.

She turned her head and found the man who had been asleep for three years standing under the eaves, and her heart was even more sour.

When she thought that the master died for her, she cried even more, and everything she said in her mouth and thought in her heart was the master.

Mo Yunkai walked over and squatted down quietly to accompany her, although he didn't know what had happened, he was sure that it had nothing to do with him.

Later, she lived in the valley and never went again.

Occasionally, someone in the valley would come to seek treatment, she respected the master's last wish, took over his class, and became a secluded physician in this valley, but in the rivers and lakes, there are few people who know her.

As for Mo Yunkai, she didn't know where he went, but he would come back occasionally and bring her some clothes and jewelry.

It wasn't until three years later that he stayed in the valley and never went again.

As for the reason, maybe it's her.

Perhaps, it was the one who chased him after him and shouted Daddy no matter where he went, that little doll.

Who knows.

She sat by the lake, looking at the medical classics left by her master, intentionally or unintentionally, and the days passed peacefully.
