The golden needle pierced into the acupuncture point, and after a short sharp pain, it gradually regained its vitality as if a long-dead tree had met a rain.

"Young Master......" The old doctor turned his beard gray and sighed a little unbearably: "Why do you bother like this, your body is now like a tree hollowed out by insects and ants, it looks like nothing bad on the outside, but in fact it is ......"

"I know."

Xuan Ling only wore a robe, and the placket and cuffs of the robe were embroidered with some simple lines, but such simple lines were also embroidered crookedly and very rusty.

He thought that because he liked the garment very much, the pulp was a little old, and the fabric became more and more soft and comfortable.

Sure enough, as she said that day, it was very comfortable to wear at night when she went to bed.

Xuan Ling said, a faint color of blood appeared on his pale face, but the blood color was not like the healthy flush of normal people, but it was strange and sickly.

He lowered his eyes, folded his sleeves and lowered them, his fingers brushing the crooked lines, but there was a faint smile on the corners of his lips.

"I'm not holding on, it's just that I don't like to show weakness in front of people."

Xuan Ling didn't say what he really thought.

This Ah Yue was taken back to the imperial capital by her on the same day, and now she has brought back her handwritten letter.

Come to think of it, the relationship between their master and servant should be a little close.

If Ah Yue saw that he was wrong, she would probably know a thing or two.

But he didn't want her to know half of it.

"But the young master...... The golden needle into the acupoint can allow you to temporarily recover your mental and physical strength, but the resulting loss is double the ......"

"People live for a lifetime, and the grass and trees are autumn, in fact, many times, some people live, and there is no difference between a day and a lifetime."

"Young Master ......"

"Don't say it again, you might as well think about it, how can I live comfortably in the rest of the days."

The old doctor's eyes immediately turned red: "I grew up watching the young master, and now my old bones can still support it, but the young master ...... you."

Xuan Ling glared at him with feigned anger: "You old man, it looks like I'm going to die soon!" ”

"The young master is cautious and ......"

"Life and death are predetermined, what are the taboos?"

Xuan Ling stood up, listened to the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer outside, asked the old doctor to leave through the side door, and asked Ah Yue to call in.

Ah Yue knelt down when she entered the door: "Young master......"

They have been in the Golden Triangle for generations, and their parents serve the old man, and they know when they are young that they are going to serve the new young master in the underground royal city.

These concepts are deeply rooted in the heart and bones, and it is difficult to erase them overnight.

"Get up, stand and talk." Xuan Ling spoke, she had always hated the prevalence of the Golden Triangle, and he, after she left, abandoned these rules that had lasted for a hundred years.

Ah Yue got up a little tremblingly, "Young Master, Miss Jingwei asked us to see you and greet you on her behalf." ”

Xuan Ling stretched out his hand and picked up the letterhead again: "If you say hello, she has already said it in the letter." ”

She wrote a handwritten letter, one said hello, thanking his subordinates for saving him that day, second, interceded for Ah Yue and a few people, and asked Xuan Ling to give the three of them a foothold in southern Yunnan, and third, she told him in the letter that she and Li Shenheng would get married soon, and invited him to attend, and the letter also said that she hoped that he would find someone with the same heart as soon as possible.

"Since she intercedes for you, then you can stay."

Ah Yue couldn't help but be overjoyed, and wanted to kneel down again, but Xuan Ling raised his hand to stop it: "In the future, there will be no more such rules." ”

"Young master......" Ah Yue raised her head boldly and looked at Xuan Ling.

Compared with three years ago, the young master's face seemed to be slightly pale, and his whole person was much thinner.

Ah Yue couldn't help but be slightly shocked.

Xuan Ling is a character who came over from the Wind Sword and Frost Sword, he has been able to exercise his hands since he came to health, otherwise he would not have saved the day several times, but now the young master looks at it, but he is quite weak.

"Since you have come back to the Golden Triangle, there are still some rules to be observed, the three of you, if you want to continue to stay here and serve, from now on, you will completely cut off your contact with the imperial capital."

Ah Yue didn't dare to disobey, and nodded in response: "Yes." ”

"Let's get out."

Ah Yue bowed her head and retreated.

Xuan Ling lowered her eyes and looked at the letterhead, and the line of words on the letterhead with her clear handwriting came into view again.

Soon, she is going to marry Li Shenheng.

The preparations for the marriage of the president of a country are naturally grand, and it seems that the year is approaching, and the marriage preparations will be in the spring of next year.

He may not have lived to that time.

But even if he had lived to that point, he probably wouldn't have gone.

Masochistic things are really boring to do.

Xuan Ling's expression was a little dazed, and it wasn't until his henchmen came in and called him three times in a row that he came back to his senses.

"Young master, those children have been selected, and the subordinates have selected them roughly, and picked out eight of them, young master, you can choose one last."

The Golden Triangle can't be left without an owner for a day, even if he is gone, someone has to hold on to the Golden Triangle, according to all the rules he left behind during his lifetime, and hold on well.

"Okay, I'll go over now."

Xuan Ling walked all the way downstairs and walked to the back of the house, where eight children in short clothes lined up in a huge open space, standing under the scorching sun.

Xuan Ling was in a trance, as if he saw himself in the past.

is also at such an age, so picked, since then, his fate is no longer controlled by himself.

Xuan Ling stood in front of the eight children and asked softly, "What do you want to do most in the future?" ”

Some children said that they wanted to be big officials and let their families live a good life.

Some children said that they would earn a lot of money to buy land and grow poppies, so that Abba and Mom could have money to see a doctor and eat meat.

There are also children who say that they want to learn a lot of skills, and if they learn the skills, they can support themselves and no longer be bullied.

Xuan Ling listened to these immature answers, with a faint smile on his face from beginning to end, without nodding or speaking.

Everyone finished answering, only the thin boy standing at the end, with a sharp chin like a sharp blade, he never spoke, just stood there quietly, like these people and things, none of which had anything to do with him.

"You...... What is your name. ”

Xuan Ling walked up to the child's side step by step, bent down, and asked softly.

A child laughed: "His name is Coffin, his mother died in childbirth when she gave birth to him, he was born in a coffin......"

The boy suddenly raised his head and glared fiercely at the boy who spoke, his gaze as fierce as a wolf, and like a sword with a blade, so that the child's shrill laughter suddenly stopped. 2k reading web
