The raindrops fell little by little along the eaves to the water tank below, making a soft 'pop' sound, dissipating the ripples of the water, and the opposite door creaked open.

The maid sent the doctor with the medicine box on his shoulder out, walked across the other side of the corridor, and under the eaves, a figure came to the door of the room, and gently pushed it open.

The lights in the room were flickering, and an old woman with gray hair was sitting on a small stool beside the bed, holding the hand of the old man lying on the couch, and when she heard the door open, she thought that the maid had returned.

"Listen to the bottle, the doctor will send ......"

The wet red eyes were a little cloudy, and when he saw that the figure who entered the house was not a maid, or even a person in the house, he immediately got up, took the candlestick on the table, and while the fire was extinguished, he raised his chest to protect the sleeping old man on the couch behind him.

"Who are you!"

This old woman, Lu Liangsheng recognized, when she saved her daughter Zhou Rong, she also came out to thank her, see you now, and smile.

"Old lady, do you still recognize Lu Liangsheng?"

"Lu ....."

The old woman hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help but move forward a little with the candlestick, carefully looking at the young man in a rather imposing robe at the door.

"Master Lu, is it really you?!"

After a long while, the old woman recognized the young man in front of her, and hurriedly put down the candlestick to greet her, Lu Liangsheng naturally wouldn't let her salute.

"I'll come over to see Old Zhou, what does the doctor say?" Lu Liangsheng hugged her.

The old woman looked back at her sleeping husband on the couch and shook her head.

"The old man was already weak and old, because of this incident, his liver was on fire, and the city was drenched with rain, and after being frightened, he came back and fell asleep......"

Lu Liangsheng got up from the table, walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, his fingertips probed on the old man's wrist, he had read some medical books, and he had also been instructed by the ghost doctor Li Yishu of Wanhe County in the past.

"Old lady, you don't have to worry, Old Zhou is just weak and cold, and he will wake up soon. ”

As he spoke, the fingertips on the old man's pulse crossed some mana and aura, and carefully swam through the aging organs.

Under the futon, the sleeping old man's breathing gradually became a little stronger, and the old woman on the side could probably see what Lu Liangsheng was doing, and she didn't bother, quietly retreated, summoned the maid to pick up medicine for her husband, and told the kitchen to prepare wine and food, then turned around and looked at the silhouette sitting on the edge of the bed inside, clasped her hands together, and overflowed tears.

......

The raindrops dripping from the eaves gradually stopped after a few drops, and the gloomy dark clouds dispersed, and a ray of sunlight shone down on the earth between the clouds.

Twitter......

The birds flew out of the branches and fell to the roof and chirped happily, the sunlight shone into the open window lattice, and the old man on the bed moved his square palms and fingers, and slowly opened his eyes.

He groaned with his mouth and nose closed, but found that he didn't feel any pain, and he still had some strength to sit up on his own.

I found the crutches leaning against the wall at the head of the bed, put on my robe, walked much more briskly and steadily than ever, opened the door, and gently knocked on the bottle of the maid who was dozing off on the fence.

"Old ...... Master?!" Hearing the bottle, he was startled, and when he saw Zhou Yao standing in front of him, he hurriedly called out, and was about to call Mrs., but was stopped by the old man.

"How did the old man come back?"

"It was the county keeper who sent the master back......" The maid put her finger on the corner of her lips, thought for a while, and added: "I heard from Madame, there are still distinguished guests at home, but I didn't see any distinguished guests anywhere when I heard the bottle." ”

Zhou Yao frowned, then stretched out, remembering the figure on the city tower before, and immediately understood who the distinguished guest was, and when he woke up, his body was much better than before.

After thinking about it, I didn't ask this girl anymore, and I didn't need the help of a servant, I walked towards the study with a cane, in the slightly open window lattice, the desk was surrounded by the fragrance of tea, Lu Liangsheng sat at the table and looked through a book in the book, occasionally took a sip of tea, saw the content of the book, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, showing a smile.

Hearing the footsteps outside the door and the sound of pushing the door, Lu Liangsheng put down the tea and got up: "Old Zhou, why don't you rest more?"

"I wanted to sleep a little longer, but I was afraid that the 'distinguished guest' would run away. ”

The old man said jokingly, came over with a smile, sat down next to the scholar, probed his neck, and glanced at the book he was reading.

"Liangsheng, this is what I have always liked to read, these gods and strange books have not changed. ”

"Just to pass the time. Lu Liangsheng took the tea on the table, moved it to the old man's side, as if the tea was overlapping, and took out a new cup of tea and put it in front of Zhou Yao.

“....... What's more, in Zhou Lao's study, which book haven't you read?"

The tea was steaming, and there was a faint fragrance of tea, and the old man was already surprised, so he took a sip of tea, "Since you have read the old man's book, then good, the old man will test your knowledge again, and see if you have been slack over the years." ”

"Haha, Zhou Lao is out of the question. ”

The old man and the young sat in the study to discuss their knowledge, and laughed from time to time, and the eavesdropping servant told Madame, who smiled, and hurriedly brought pastries to him, urging the kitchen to prepare the food quickly, and also to secretly go to the study to have a look.

The sunlight passed through the old trees in the courtyard, the swaying branches, and the birds flew to the window lattice and jumped around, curiously looking at the old and young people sitting on the bookcase, holding books and laughing.

The cups on the table are quiet, and the tea is hot.

.......

The clouds dissipated, the foothills of Fulin Prefecture were covered with a thin layer of water vapor, and among the raindrops in the woods, the rustling footsteps sounded at the end.

"Master...... Master, hold on. ”

In the forest, a slender figure carried an old man out of the tree, and the old man seemed to be unable to walk, so he fell softly from the young man's shoulders and leaned against the side of the tree.

The two are Chen Fu and Chen Jing's apprentices.

"Jing'er ......" The old man leaned against the tree and opened his eyes weakly, his face was no longer bloodless, looking at the apprentice who was busy untying the water bag on his waist, Chen Fu waved his hand.

“...... No, no need for ......."

"Master, don't speak, you have cultivated to a high level, and you will be fine. ”

Chen Jing untied the water bag, unscrewed the wooden cork, and handed the mouth of the bag to the old man's mouth, "Master, you take a sip to quench your thirst, and you will be fine after resting for a while." ”

"No...... Jing'er, you listen to the teacher. ”

Over there, Chen Fu turned his face away and rejected the water bag on the side of his mouth, his eyes were already gray, and he looked in one direction blankly.

Said weakly: "...... The Chen Dynasty wants to be restored..... It can't be thrown away in your hands, it must be 'picked up'. ”

There was a pause in the words, and he continued weakly.

"Jing'er, remember, there can be no mercy for the king, your father is the best example, don't repeat the mistakes of the past......"

Chen Jing knelt on the ground, listening to the old man's weak mouth, tears flowed out, hanging on his cheeks, the old man raised his hand tremblingly, wiped away the tears on his face, and squeezed out a little smile between his gray beard.

"In the future, the teacher can't go on with you anymore, everything depends on yourself, be brave..... Let's go, go back to Fumo Mountain first, put some things in the cave for the teacher, take them......"

Wiping away the tears on the apprentice's face, the old man's hand gradually couldn't support it, and hung down, his godless eyes were still facing Chen Jing, and the words that came out of his lips became smaller and smaller.

“....... Later, you're going to go alone. ”

His hand fell heavily to the ground, looking at the apprentice's eyes, and slowly closed it as the last sentence was finished.

"Master!!"

"Master, wake up—"

"Don't ignore Jing'er..... Master!"

The young man who sobbed quietly cried out, hugging the old man on the ground and crying vigorously, but after all, no one answered him.

Soon after, at the foot of the mountain, on the cliff wall overlooking the mountains, there was an additional mound, a few stone tablets, without a name.

Chen Jing's eyes were red and bloodshot, he knelt in front of the tombstone, knocked his head three times, slowly stood up and glanced at the south, bathed in the glow from the west, and went away alone.

Wow Wow Wow –

As the sun sets, after a continuous drizzle, the air is fresh, and on the quiet cliffs, there are lonely mounds of graves, and suddenly clods of earth slide.

"Jing'er, I hope you can understand the painstaking work of being a teacher. ”

A faint sound sounded in the tomb, and in an instant, with a bang, a large boulder flew out of it, rolled on the ground, and bounced out of the cliff.

On the bulging mound, a gap was opened, and the old man who had died was lying motionless inside, but there was a sound.

"The old man has been practicing the Dao for fifty years, how can he not leave a way back......? Come back ......."

When he repeated, Chen Fu, who was lying inside, suddenly felt that something was wrong.

hurriedly went to summon the elixir hidden on his body, and what came was an empty piece of the bag.

...... Oh no, could it be that Jin Dan was taken away by his apprentice?

This is ..... This, what the fuck should I do-
