Although the Medicine Pavilion has a secluded spring on its side, and the rich aura of the earth spirit makes the Mozhu Forest and Sea like spring all year round, but when Master Qin's words fell, in the room where the sound of needles falling could be heard, Gu An could feel a trace of coldness like deep winter.

He didn't look up at Master Qin, but his whole body slowly tensed, and he was holding on the back of his hand on the edge of the bed, and he could faintly see a few green tendons beating incessantly.

Qin Shi walked to the window and stood quietly looking at the sea of ink bamboo forests shrouded in spiritual mist and humidity outside the window, and the warm light stretched the shadow between him and the window lattice very long, until it covered Gu An, who was silent on the bed

"It's going to take some time to come to terms with that. Qin Shi said softly.

Gu An lowered his head and was silent for a long time, and only after a long time did he speak: "How much time do you have left?"

The voice was still as cold as the wind, but the gloom gradually rose.

"Half a year. ”

Qin Shi tilted his head slightly and looked at the bed, but his gaze did not fall on Gu An

"Your body has been injured by two strong energies, the ventricles have been destroyed, and the rescue is too late, even if the Holy Hand of the Apricot Forest heals you in time, there is no possibility of survival. But there seems to be an extremely cold qi in your body, and at the moment when your heart veins are broken, with the power of great ice, on the basis of the heart of flesh and blood, it helps you re-condense a cold heart, causing you not to die in the first place...... If it weren't for that, you wouldn't have been able to come here to see me. ”

"The embankment of a thousand miles will still have a day when it will be defeated by the accumulated power of the rivers, not to mention the cold heart veins that have been reshaped in your body. The male's blood is strong, flowing like a raging fire, running through the whole body. Countless years ago, since the human race had the ability to control fire, the fire Qi inherited in the bloodline is a godsend that burns the body's functions, and the power of yin and cold is already hedged against masculinity, especially at your current age, it is the time when the blood is flourishing, and the main fire in the heart, the mortal world will not stop for a hundred years, as the most blazing place of the fire Qi, under the continuous elimination of the cold and ice qi, how long can your cold heart last?"

Gu An took a deep breath, got up and sat on the edge of the bed, he just looked at the heart vein, it was indeed just as Master Qin said, the original blood-red heart had been plated with azure ice, every time there was a fresh blood pumping, the heart would be faintly throbbing, he was now cultivating to a low level, the body and the soul that had not yet been separated, even if he could control the cold ice spirit element, but for such a precise effect on the problem of repairing and repairing, he was helpless.

"But Master Qin, you have a way, don't you?"

But seeing Gu An slowly raise his head, although his face was still pale and his lips were blue, his eyes were very calm, as if it was not him who heard the danger of life and death just now.

"The old man is just a rural villager, how can there be any way. ”

Qin Shi turned around and walked to the tea table in the room, sat down, and began to warm the tea set in his hand, his expression was indifferent, and he said in a calm tone.

"Yes. ”

Gu An chuckled suddenly, his legs were back on the ground, a slightly cool touch came from under the soles of his feet, he took silent steps, slowly sat down opposite Qin Shi, his elbows pressed lightly on the edge of the table, his ten fingers crossed together, and lightly touched his lips.

Qin Shi didn't look at Gu An who was sitting in front of him, his eyes only fell on the tea set in front of him, he scooped the tea leaves with a wooden spoon made of mahogany, slowly put them into the gaiwan, and then poured the boiling water in the clay pot next to him, and the steam rose with the rich fragrance of tea.

Speaking of which, Gu Xiaozi hasn't had tea with the old man for a long time. Qin Shi said lightly.

"Yes, I haven't drunk it since the day the seal disappeared. Gu An smiled and replied.

The boiling water was brewed repeatedly, and the fine dust in the sunlight formed a fine pillar of light in the air, falling on the tea cup, Qin Shi gently wiped the floating tea leaves on the tea surface with the lid of the bowl, and said softly:

"To drink good tea, you need to use a gaiwan, so you use a gaiwan. ”

"And there is good tea to drink, and there is a kind of Furui who can drink good tea. ”

Gu An smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid that the younger generation will not have this opportunity in the future." ”

"Definitely. ”

Qin Shi glanced up at the young man in front of him, and said leisurely: "Floating life is like tea, all living beings, how can it not be a pinch of tea that fluctuates in life and death?

"Tea leaves release the deep depression because of boiling water, and practice, only through the rivers, mountains and wilderness, can you observe the real cold between heaven and earth. ”

Gu An's eyes sank, and he saw Master Qin pour the tea soup in the gaiwan into the porcelain bowl, bent his hands slightly and pushed forward, pushing the tea cup in front of Gu An.

A few pieces of tea are stretched in the clear and turquoise liquid, swirling, slowly sinking, rising and sinking again, rising and falling three times, and the buds and shadows are shining with each other.

He just watched quietly, his eyes were indifferent, and the tea leaves sneaked into the bottom of the cup, like the tip of the pen standing upright, with the momentum of a crane flying.

"I want to know what you mean. ”

Master Qin brewed a new round of tea again, but during this time, his eyes mostly stayed on Gu An, who was contemplative, his wrist flipped, tea leaves and boiling water were churning, and a new cup of hot and crystal clear tea soup was pushed in front of Gu An by Master Qin.

In this way, it was not until after the third cup of tea that Master Qin stopped the process in his hand, muttered silently, and looked at the young man in front of him.

The sky was slightly cool, and it fell into the room through the carved wooden window, and on the tea case, the boundary between black and white was divided, Qin Shi was in the hazy light, and Gu An was hidden behind the dark curtain.

After a long time, Gu An slowly put down the hand between his lips, he wiped the slightly cold cup edge of the tea cup with his fingers, and said softly:

"In the vast sea of people, the years of a lifetime are just life and death. The world is like a piece of tea, sooner or later, to dissolve into this ever-changing world......"

"Whether it is the boiling of the four seas, the warm and soft mountains and water, or the sophistication and coolness, so a trace of bitterness, how similar to the ups and downs of tea leaves, a cup of tea. ”

Gu An raised his head and looked at the old man in front of him, his gaze was calm, and at some point, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth:

Although tea will eventually sink to the bottom of the cup, and life will eventually come to an end, there are some things that are not done, just like tea knows its destination, but it will still adhere to its persistence in the torment, and will bloom its beliefs in the boiling water. ”

"And I, too, will choose what I think is right, whether they are right or not, as long as I think it's right, that's what I'm trying to get back. ”

Qin Shi's eyes narrowed slightly, his hair and beard were windless, he looked at Gu An in the shadow of the room, like a sleeping angry dragon slowly waking up, there was a little rebelliousness in the calm, and there was a little bit of contempt for the world in the indifference, vaguely, this feeling seemed to have been met in someone's body.

"The Tao is, there is a fate. ”

He whispered to his dusty memories in a voice that no one could hear, and a faint smile appeared on the old face of the ravine.

"Yes, yes. However, I have two conditions. ”

Gu An didn't speak, just looked at him silently.

I saw Qin Shi smile faintly, he suddenly slapped the tea case, and the warm tea soup in the three cups of tea on the table in front of Gu An suddenly turned into a blue-green column of water and rose into the air, gradually condensing into a crescent-shaped image in the air.

When Gu An saw this image, he looked stunned, but he was shocked in his heart.

Master Qin seemed to be very satisfied with his expression, and said with a smile:

"The first condition is to help me get the Qingliu Boundary Order. ”

"Huh?"

"Master Qin..."Gu An's expression was slightly condensed, and he said tentatively: "...... Are you kidding?"

The old god of Qin Shi tapped his fingers on the tea case on the ground, looked at Gu An, and said lightly: "Do you think the old man wants to be like that...... Anyone who jokes with people's lives?"

"Don't dare to ......"

Gu An's eyes moved, and he frowned: "But let's not talk about what you want to do with the Qingliu Boundary Order, just with the current physical condition of the juniors, they may not even have the ability to participate in the government examination, let alone the final competition of the county area, the juniors are afraid that they are ....... powerless......"

"There's no need to test the old man's depth like this. ”

Master Qin stroked a lock of long beard under his chin, looked at Gu An with a strange expression, and said in a calm tone: "To cure your injuries and illnesses is not something that can be done in a day, medicinal therapy needs to be divided into five stages, the first three stages are medicinal baths, and some of these medicinal baths are equipped with medicinal materials required in ancient recipes, even if the old man and I have been guarding the medicine pavilion for many years, I have no right to use them." Now the medicinal materials in the old man's hands are only enough to be used as the base materials for the first round of medicinal baths and the second and third stages, and whether the main flavor medicine can be obtained in your hands depends on yourself. ”

Gu An shook his head and asked, "The juniors are puzzled, and I still hope that Master Qin will give you some advice." ”

I saw Qin Shi's left forearm pillowing the edge of the table, holding the cup with the thumb and index finger of his right hand, and supporting the bottom with his middle finger, and gently and evenly holding up the celadon, and splashing the tea in the cup into the air.

"Look. ”

The voice Fang Qi, the old man's right hand bent his fingers slightly, the tea soup in the air converged in his palm like weightlessness, a faint energy was like an invisible big hand kneading and twisting the water mass, and a meridian map of the upper body of the human body appeared in the air, and then a wisp of fire ignited on Qin Shi's hand, and with a flick of his fingers, the firelight flew into the meridian map, and the red fire turned into a stream of flowing fire like a trickle, as if blood was flowing in the human body.

Gu An's expression did not move, but he was secretly surprised in his heart, the Qi control technique displayed by Master Qin was really exquisite and extraordinary, this was not something that a simple cultivator could do so meticulously, even if he knew from Liang Pang that Master Qin was a formation path cultivator, but this strength was completely enough to serve as a teacher in the Jingfu Academy, why would he be willing to be a mere gatekeeper?

"I don't know what happened to you, but your dying body has been reshaped with an icy heart, but it will save you for a while, but it's not a long-term solution. ”

Qin Shi's fingers tapped on the surface of the wooden table, and said in a deep voice: "The several breaths of your body at this moment seem to consume each other and repel each other, but they forcibly coexist. The fire qi in the blood is dissipating the cold qi, and the vitality in the body is consuming the dead qi, and a delicate balance is maintained between the two. ”

"And the bottom line is the broken pulse of your heart. Qin Shi said slowly, his fingertips moved slightly, and the meridian diagram suddenly magnified countless times, and he pointed to one of the ice-white round tube passages, but the power of the fire qi in it was even more violent.

"Your original body is flesh and blood, and it belongs to the same environment as your blood, but your icy heart is a foreign thing, and the repulsive power of the organs in it is called blood resistance. ”
