The sun is gradually rising, the sea breeze is mixed with salty smells, and the waves are chasing the shore layer by layer, washing the beach clean and smooth. Seabirds chirp freely in the sky, and the occasional bald eagle hovers over the surface, waiting for the next prey to emerge from the water.

"Those children on the mountain follow you every day to practice swords, and their physical strength is exhausted, and now is the time for them to grow up, let's pick up more seafood today and go back to feed them, okay?" Ruoyi asked

"It's all up to Madame, and Madame will pick up as much as she says. Dimu replied, as if accommodating, but also as if he didn't care at all.

"I think this bamboo basket seems too small, do you think it's small?" Ruo Yi asked thoughtfully, picking up the bamboo basket.

"It's not small, it's not too small, it's almost fine. ”

Ruoyi put down the bamboo basket in her hand, and when she was taking off her shoes, she saw the baby lying on the reef.

"Look at it, look there...... Xianggong" Ruoyi's eyes fell on the rocks and exclaimed in surprise.

"What, ma'am, what do you see?" Dimu frowned at Madame's surprised expression.

"Don't look at me, look over there, on that reef!" Ruoyi pointed towards the reef, her face eager, "See?"

"What is that, is it a child?" Looking in the direction his wife pointed to, Di Mu was also quite surprised, "There is no one here, how can there be a child?"

"Xianggong, let's go over and take a look. Ruoyi put on her shoes and ran towards the baby.

"Ma'am, be careful. Dimu walked behind him and reminded.

Ruoyi hurried to the reef, forgetting that the sea had soaked her shoes and skirt, picked up the baby wrapped in swaddling clothes, and turned back towards the shore.

"Xianggong, you see that this child's lips are purple, as if he is dying, let's save him quickly, shall we?" Ruoyi, who was motherly, looked at the poor baby and pleaded at her husband.

"A child suddenly appeared here, we don't want to pick up such an unknown thing, let's go, let's go back quickly." Dimu looked at the baby with purple lips, and a trace of disgust crossed his eyes.

"Xianggong, you can't say that, this is a child, not a thing. Ruo Yi said unhappily.

"There must be something wrong with how a baby can appear out of thin air in such a place, ma'am, and please think about it reasonably. Di Mu turned his head and said disapprerovingly.

"But this is really a child, you see, this child is still very beautiful, let's take him back, it will be too late if he is not treated in time." "When she was anxious, Ruoyi didn't care too much, and she was about to go back with the baby in her arms.

But Di Mu immediately stopped his wife and said coldly: "Madam, we can't pick up this child!"

"Don't pick it up, do you want to keep it here?" Ruoyi was also unhappy, and said with a heartfelt voice.

"Ma'am, it's not that I don't want to save this child. Seeing that his wife was unhappy, his words immediately softened, and Di Mu found a reason to justify: "Maybe this child's mother is looking for him, if we take this child away now, then how will his mother find him then?"

"Xianggong, have you seen the vulture in the sky?" Ruo Yi looked at the sky, her face full of worry, "The vulture is hovering above, if I let this baby here, it will immediately become a thing in the belly of the vulture!"

"No, we can't save this child!" Dimu looked at his wife solemnly.

"Do you want this kid to die here?" asked Ruoyi.

"You see that he is motionless, maybe this child is dead!" Di Mu flicked his sleeve robe, and said coldly.

Ruoyi seemed to be frightened, and she was anxious to ignore this situation just now, and under her husband's cold drink, she tentatively put her fingers close to the baby's nose with trembling hands.

"No death, no death, and breathing. Ruoyi was pleasantly surprised.

"If you don't die, you can't be saved!" Di Mu said resolutely with a grim face.

"If you don't save me, please get out of the way. Seeing her husband so indifferent, Ruoyi said unceremoniously.

Ruoyi pushed Di Mu away and ran back regardless of it.

Time flies, fourteen years later.

Dimu and Ruoyi are already middle-aged, and the baby they rescued at the beach survived. In the year after the baby was rescued, Ruoyi gave birth to a daughter, named Ning Xuan, who was now thirteen years old, and the baby who was picked up was fourteen years old, and because he picked it up on the shore, he called him Xiao'an. Although they live together on this mountain, they have very different fates.

On this seaside island, it is one of the highest peaks. Dimu opened up a martial arts training ground here, the venue is paved with cut marble, spacious and flat, with a distance between people, and can accommodate forty or fifty people to practice at the same time. There are also dormitories for students and a dining hall for catering. Families who are not in difficulty, but are not wealthy, are willing to send their children here, so that they do not have to discipline their children, especially those who often go out to sea to fish. Of course, these are not free, and according to the length of the schooling period, Dimu will charge different weight of silver taels.

The so-called plan of the day lies in the morning, and the morning is the best time of the day to exercise and study, and Dimu will let the students practice the sword first, and then eat breakfast after practicing for half an hour.

"Knock...... Boom...... Knock ......" The stake struck the bronze bell with a loud sound, and the long aftermath echoed on the top of the mountain for a long time. At this time, Di Mu was already standing in front of the martial arts training ground. The students who heard the bell immediately got up one by one and got out of bed, hurriedly washed up and rushed to the martial arts training ground.

Dimu began to roll call.

"Li Xiuwen..."

"Here!"

"Qian Jingzhu..."

"Here!"

............

"Cheng Yu..."

"To ......" didn't seem to wake up, and the lazy voice was almost unheard by Dimu, who was standing at the front. The laughter of the other students could be heard clearly. So Di Mu repeated the shouting: "Cheng Yu..."

"Here!" this time the voice was not loud, but it could still be heard.

"Zhou Ziying..."

"Here!"

"Yu Yi..."

"Here!"

"Mu Yunxuan ......" waited for a long time, but there was no response, Di Mu called again, "Mu Yunxuan ......" still did not reply, this is not the first time, and it has become commonplace for Mu Yunxuan to not be able to exercise in the morning. Even if this person didn't come, Dimu wouldn't say anything, to be precise, maybe he didn't dare to say anything. Mu Yunxuan is the only one in this group of students whose family is rich and has been sent here, as for the family is so rich, it is unknown why he didn't directly invite a teacher to teach at home.

"Brother Mu didn't come again?" Zhou Ziying turned his head and asked Yu Yi behind him.

"Nonsense, do you still need to talk about it, can Brother Mu get up so early?haha, now Brother Mu is probably still doing **!" Yu Yi smiled obscenely.

"Have you asked for leave?" Zhou Ziying continued to ask.

"I said you're stupid, do you still need to ask for leave like Brother Mu?"

"Okay, let's not argue, let's start practicing the sword. Dimu suppressed the anger in his heart and waved his hand.

Although Xiao Kishi would wake up with these students every morning when the bell rang, there was no Xiao Kishi among this group of sword practicing students. After the students had left the dormitory, Koyoshi would clean their dormitories one by one, and that was the beginning of his day.
