Luoyang Volume (I) Chapter 82 Antecedents and Consequences
Shi Xin is not dead, but he is not far from death. He was lying on the bed, his eyes, ears, mouth and nose were oozing blood. The face is like gold paper, and even breathing becomes difficult.
This is one of the guest rooms of the temple. The Holy Church occupies a large area, and behind the temple is a large number of guest rooms for guests and disciples.
Cai Yan was in another guest room just now, because next to the Holy Sect was the Heavenly Master Sect branch, and she had been living in the Holy Sect for the past ten days, so that she could get the news of Shi Xin's return in time.
Unexpectedly, Shi Xin waited for him to come back, but he looked like this. Cai Yan sat on the edge of the bed, looking at him tenderly. She thought to herself: When I am born, I can't live for myself, but when I die, I must accompany you. Then we will be buried together in one grave, and we will never be separated.
Cai Yan was suddenly not afraid that Shi Xin would die, because she had already made a decision in her heart at the moment. This decision allows them to stay together forever and never be separated again.
Every time Shi Xin oozed blood, Cai Yan carefully wiped it off for him, as if he was taking care of a baby.
Lu Zhi kept circling around the round table, putting his hands behind his back, probing to look at Shi Xin lying on the bed from time to time, and sighed every time he looked at it.
Cai Yong sat in his chair, looking worried. He was a famous Confucian in the Han Dynasty, a great writer, a great musician, a great calligrapher, and countless disciples. There are too many halos on him, but from his appearance, it can only be seen that he is just a middle-aged man who is meticulously cleaned up and even a little stereotypical.
Cai Yong's eyes did not leave Cai Yan half a step. Knowing his daughter Mo Ruo's father, Cai Yan's eyes are the first time he has seen them, which is a boring and loveless expression. He knew very well that if Shi Xin died, his daughter would definitely go with him.
Wang Yun sat opposite Cai Yong, he had a thin face, and his eyes were bright and wise. He is younger than Cai Yong, but his hair is much whiter than Cai Yong, maybe he has been planning for something.
Wang Yun's eyes were slightly closed at the moment, and his right hand gently stroked his half-white beard, as if he was thinking about something. Suddenly, his eyes opened, "There you have!"
Lu Zhixi was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked, "Third brother, what did you think of?"
"The only thing in Luoyang City that can save Shi Xin is Dong Feng, who opened a medical center at the south gate!"
Lu Zhi's eyes lit up, and he slapped his head, "Yes, why did I forget him! I'll invite him!" After speaking, without waiting for Wang Yun's response, he hurriedly ran out.
I heard a shout outside the door, "Captain, where are you going?" Why don't you let me in to see if Shi Xin is dead?"
It was Zhang Fei's voice.
"Yide, if your voice goes in, he will be scared to death by you if he doesn't die. By the way, you go out with me and ask a doctor to see Shi Xin. ”
"What doctor? I'm telling you, Sheen is going to die, you need to hurry. ”
Lu Zhi is also a big voice, but compared to Zhang Fei, he is nothing but a big deal. The two men walked out of the temple with a shout and headed for the south gate.
Wang Yun in the room looked at Shi Xin, "Alas!
Cai Yan heard the conversation between Lu Zhi and Wang Yun, and seemed to see a little hope, so he asked, "Third uncle, what is the origin of this Dong Feng?"
"Well, you just came back to Luoyang not long ago, no wonder you don't know Dong Feng. He is from Koto, and there is a story about him, which is the story of 'Apricot Forest Spring Warmth'. At that time, Dong Feng was practicing medicine in the south, and he did not charge any fees, and only asked the cured patients to plant apricot trees near his medical center. For those who have recovered from serious illness, 5 plants will be planted, and for those who have recovered from mild diseases, 1 plant will be planted. A few years later, there were 10,000 apricots, and they became forests. When the apricots were ripe in spring, Dong Feng built a grass under the tree to store apricots. If you need apricots, you can exchange them for millet yourself. Then the grain of the proceeds was given to the poor and provided for the travelers. This is the origin of the spring warmth of the apricot forest. Do you think this Dong Feng is a miracle doctor who saves the world?"
Cai Yan nodded and said: "It turns out that he is a miracle doctor again, and my master is a person who does not care about remuneration......" When she said this, her eyes suddenly lit up, why can't she remember Master and his old man?
Ge Xuan's medical skills are excellent, and Shi Xin's internal injuries at the beginning were healed by him. Moreover, he knows the meridians in Shi Xin's body best, and he has more experience in healing his broken veins, so it is the best choice to invite him to come.
"You can ask someone to quickly invite the master here, if Doctor Dong can't cure the senior brother's injury, it can be relieved a little, and when the master comes, maybe everything will be solved." ”
Cai Yan told Wang Yun what he thought in his heart, and Wang Yun patted his thigh, "That's it! There are people from our Holy Sect in Julu City, I will contact him with a carrier pigeon, and I will receive the message tomorrow." Then it will be up to Ge Xuan to come!" He hurriedly walked out.
There were only two fathers and daughters left in the room, Cai Yong and Cai Yan, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
After a moment of silence, Cai Yong sighed, "Yan'er, you haven't spoken to me since you came back from Julu, are you still angry with your father?"
Cai Yan's tears burst out of his eyes, and the anger in his heart rose suddenly. "Relieved? My father doesn't care about my future, he wants to marry me into the palace wholeheartedly, and he makes it known all over the city, can I be relieved? I'm only a little over ten years old, do I have to spend the rest of my life in the deep palace of intrigue?"
The more Cai Yan spoke, the more excited he became, and Huo Di stood up, his chest rising and falling uncontrollably because of excitement. "The world of the Liu family, the world of men, why should a weak woman save it? Liu Che is the son of heaven, and he can fight his way out of the world with his own efforts and struggles. Look at him, the intrigues and tricks are not less, but he is still a low-level pulse master who has only opened the pulse. My father wants me to marry into the palace and serve such a waste?"
"It's just a matter of serving waste, Dong Zhuo's old puppet stays in the dragon bed at night, ‖ harem, and the father can't bear to let his daughter be in deep trouble, and he is afraid of being defiled by Dong Zhuo's old puppet every day?" At the end, Cai Yan wiped the tears from his face and choked up, "Could it be that my father only saw the benefits of the Holy Sect and the royal family joining forces, but didn't see his daughter's desperate situation? If I didn't run away to Julu, maybe my father would have been impatient to marry me into the palace, right? As a daughter, I don't dare to hate you." But as a daughter, I despair of your behavior. ”
Cai Yan hadn't spoken to Cai Yong for almost two years, and this time he talked endlessly, spitting out his heartfelt words for many years.
Under Cai Yan's continuous questioning, Cai Yong burst into tears, and his body trembled violently. He understands what Cai Yan said, but the three elders of their Holy Sect only have Cai Yan, and Lu Zhi and Wang Yun are both childless, so this matter can only fall on Cai Yan.
The Han Dynasty reached the point where the wind and rain were shaking and the building was about to fall. Dong Zhuo is eyeing the capital, and the military and politics of other states are controlled by major forces, and they support their own troops. The only thing Emperor Xian could rely on was the Holy Sect, and in order to show his determination and loyalty, Cai Yong had to do so, at least for now.
Cai Yong is today's great Confucian, and his every move implicates the hearts of Confucian students all over the world. He is a model of the Han Dynasty, he is covered by the box of "reading sage books and doing sage things", and he will never be able to jump out.
"I ...... I have a lot of grievances......" Cai Yong opened his mouth wide, wanting to admonish Cai Yan with righteousness, but seeing that Cai Yan had already sat down, he took out a handkerchief again and carefully wiped the blood from Shi Xin's face, obviously not wanting to talk to him anymore.
Cai Yong suddenly became speechless, he could calmly face the scolding of anyone in the world, but for his daughter, he was full of guilt and speechless.
That night more than a year ago, Cai Yong and Cai Yan also had a violent quarrel. It's just that Cai Yan was still young at that time, and he was trained to only know how to bow his head and wipe his tears, crying so much that pear blossoms brought rain.
Cai Yan left that night. Cai Yong had no choice but to ask Wang Yue to take care of her, hoping that she would want to open it. Wang Yue and the three elders of the Holy Sect were very close, and they had liked Cai Yan since they were children, and at the moment, with the consent of the emperor, they took Wang Ke and a huge amount of money to secretly protect Cai Yan all the way.
Cai Yan walked aimlessly north, and finally stopped at Julu. This is the holy place of the Heavenly Master Sect and the most developed place of Taoism. Since the Confucianism cultivated since childhood has harmed himself to this field, let Taoism save him. She changed her name to "Chen Bing", and the surname Chen has a large population and will not arouse the suspicion of others. And the word "ice" is taken relative to the word "Yan", in short, I want to say goodbye to the past.
Cai Yan has a heart to chase freedom, but she has a pedantic and stubborn father and an unchangeable life experience.
The room fell silent again until Lu Zhi and Zhang Fei brought Dong Feng back. At this time, Wang Yun also finished his work and rushed back.
Zhang Fei was afraid of being kicked out of the room again, so he broke in first. After seeing the blood oozing from Shi Xin's facial features turning from light red to dark brown, he shook his head and comforted Cai Yan: "Cai girl, it is a miracle that this kid has survived until now. When he dies, you can marry the emperor with peace of mind. Alas, alas, alas. In vain, I worked hard to get him back, but I still couldn't get back. Shi Xin is dead, dead!"
Zhang Fei said from the beginning that Shi Xin was "dead", and when he realized that it was very unpleasant to say this, he stopped talking for a moment.
Zhang Fei stared and thought for a while, and said, "It's okay, it's okay!" I said when I was swearing to my eldest brother and second brother, I don't want to be born on the same day, but I want to die on the same day. Actually, death isn't that scary......"
Cai Yong's face was gloomy, and he shouted, "Zhang Fei, have you said enough?"
Zhang Fei immediately stopped his mouth, knowing that he had said the wrong thing again.
Cai Yan smiled, "Zhang Sanye is really temperamental. You're right, as long as that person is identified, it won't be difficult to follow Ben to the death......"
"That's not what I meant. In fact, Shi Xin will not necessarily die...... When he's well, it's not too late for you to live and live together. Ha ha...... But the emperor is not easy to explain. ”
Lu Zhi listened to Zhang Fei talking nonsense, and the whole bed was blocked by his strong figure, and he and Dong Feng couldn't squeeze in at all.
"Zhang Yide, if you don't go out again, I'm going to find your eldest brother!" Lu Zhi kicked Zhang Fei and reminded loudly.
"Don't!" Zhang Fei seemed to be stepped on by the tail and bounced high, "Don't tell the eldest brother, he will cry and cry as soon as he comes, which will make people feel uncomfortable." I'm going away, I'm going to go away......"
Zhang Fei muttered, "You actually treated Shi Xin's life-saving benefactor like this...... "He had a strong body, but his movements were agile, and he stepped aside as he spoke, stretching his neck to look this way.
