Chongyang Palace side hall, wing room.

In the middle of the house is a round table, on which is placed a copper tripod incense burner, and there is light smoke curling in the incense burner. This light smoke is not emitted by ordinary incense sticks, but sandalwood incense, which has the effect of eliminating disasters, dispelling demons, and refreshing the mind.

There were five Taoists sitting in the room, and their eyes all looked at a wooden couch, which was half covered by a veil, and a protruding piece under the quilt could be faintly seen, as if someone was asleep.

The faces of the five Taoists are gloomy, their eyes are like the water of a lonely deep pool, and in the sandalwood swirling, they are like five living statues, and there is no movement for a long time.

At this time, the heavy cotton curtain opened, and a Taoist boy walked in with a wooden plate, and the cold wind suddenly blew in, blowing the smoke screen in the room in all directions.

The ten eyes immediately stared at him, and the Dao boy trembled in fright, and replied tremblingly: "Master...... Master's Medicine ...... It's already good...... ......"

Wang Chuyi stood up, picked up the medicine bowl from the wooden plate, and moved to the bedside.

Sun Buer had already gently lifted the corner of the quilt and whispered: "Senior brother, senior brother..."

After a moment, the person under the quilt squirmed and slowly opened his eyes.

Sun Buer's heart was suddenly overjoyed, and he put down his heart slightly, and said softly: "Senior brother, it's time for you to take medicine." As he spoke, he took the medicine bowl in Wang's hand.

Ma Yu's gaze turned on the faces of the five people in front of the bed, and then stopped on the medicine bowl that emitted heat, his lips moved a few times, but he didn't make any sound, so he had to shake his head effortlessly.

Sun Buer's eyes were sour, tears rolled down, and he persuaded: "Senior brother, you should drink the medicine......"

Ma Yu just shook his head.

Qiu Chuji sighed and said, "Since Senior Brother doesn't want to drink, forget it." ”

Sun Buer persuaded a few more times, but seeing that it had no effect, he had to hand the medicine bowl to Daotong again, and Daotong picked up the wooden plate. The footsteps were fast, and in the blink of an eye, he fled without a trace.

The five of them were all in a heavy mood, and they didn't have the energy to reprimand Dao Tong's rudeness, so they all focused on Ma Yu.

Wang Chuyi asked, "Senior brother, how do you feel?"

Ma Yu's throat rolled, and his voice said the word "good" vaguely, and he was a little powerless.

When the king saw this, he saw this. Busy said: "You have a good rest, no need to say more." ”

Ma Yu nodded slightly, and fell asleep again after a while.

All five of them gently left the bedside and left the room one after another, stopping at a distance from the room.

Wang Chu opened his mouth and said in a low voice: "Senior brother refuses to use medicine, but what should I do?"

"The medicine stone is weak. Senior Brother understands very well in his heart!" Hao Datong shook his head and said.

"But as long as you are willing to use medicine, there is still hope, if you don't even need medicine......" Sun Buer didn't dare to say any more.

Qiu Chuji paced back and forth for a long time before he stopped and asked, "Is there no other way?"

Wang Chuyi hesitated and said: "Dali Duan's Yiyang Finger is very mysterious, it can cure diseases, why don't we invite Master Yideng to help?"

Liu Chuxuan said helplessly: "We are all martial arts students. You should know very well in your heart that even if you use a yang finger to heal, you can't do anything about your brother's terminal illness. ”

Wang Chuyi understands this, Wang Chongyang had two great miracles, innate skills and one yang finger, and after suffering from a deep illness, he was still helpless.

In the final analysis, Yiyang Finger is just a martial art after all, although it is quite effective in treating internal injuries. But it is far from replacing medical skills.

"I've thought of all the ways I should think, and I've done what I should do, my brother has suffered a lot from injections and drugs these days, in my opinion, these should be stopped, don't bother him anymore, let him live a comfortable life for a few days. Liu Chuxuan sighed and said.

The rest of the people were silent when they heard this. After a while, Qiu Chuji asked, "How much sandalwood is left, is it enough?"

Wang Chuyi said: "There are still a few, but there are not many, only enough for about half a month." ”

Qiu Chuji said: "Senior brother can now rely on sandalwood to sleep peacefully. I can't cut off the supply, so I'm going to ask someone to buy another batch back. ”

While the five of them were talking, one of Qiu Chuji's disciples came over to report, "Senior Brother Li is back and asks to see Master." ”

Qiu Chuji nodded and said, "It's quite fast, let him come in." Seeing that the disciple's face seemed to be hesitant, he asked again, "What else do you have to do?"

The disciple replied, "Senior Brother Li has brought that Yang Guo over as well......

Qiu Chuji was slightly stunned, then his eyebrows widened, and he said, "It's rare that he still has this heart, let them come in together." ”

Not long after the disciple went down, he heard the sound of hurried footsteps, and Li Zhichang and Yang Guo hurriedly walked in.

"The disciple has seen the master, the master, and all the uncles!" Li Zhichang knelt down and kowtowed to the five sons of Quanzhen, before he raised his head and said: "The disciple has been delayed on the way, and he is late, and he hopes to forgive his sins." ”

"Get up. Qiu Chuji waved his hand and asked, "Where is Zhijing, why don't you see him coming?"

"Senior Brother Zhao, he ......" Li Zhichang was about to explain the matter, but Qiu Chuji interrupted him again and said, "Forget it, you can report it later." His eyes were looking at Yang Guo behind him.

Yang Guo had been in a nervous mood on the way to the main hall, not only wanting to see what the current situation of Ma Yu and Qiu Chuji was, but also a little afraid to see the two.

There is no reason for this feeling, and he doesn't know why.

And he had a lot of words in his mind that he should say when he met, but when he really arrived in front of Qiu Chuji, his mind was blank, and he couldn't say anything.

Yang Guo stood dumbfounded, seeing the vicissitudes of life on Qiu's face, his hair was gray, and there was an indescribable tiredness in his expression, and even his eyes were not as sharp as before, and he really didn't know what it was like in his heart.

Time destroys the sword, and the years urge people to grow old.

Even the most ambitious swordsman is always on a fragile side, and there is always a moment when he loses his glory in his twilight years.

Yang Guo thought that there would be this day, but he didn't expect that Qiu Chuji's body would come so quickly.

"You're here?" the two looked at each other for a moment, and after all, it was Qiu Chuji who calmed down first and asked.

This sentence broke the dull atmosphere in the hall, and also woke Yang Guo up from his mixed thoughts, and subconsciously nodded back: "Well, I'm here." ”

Qiu Chuji took a step forward and wanted to pat him on the shoulder, but after raising his arm, he put it down halfway, and just said, "It's good to come." ”

After two or three simple questions and answers, he didn't know what to say, and Yang Guo couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart.

Once lost, some feelings can never be recovered. Even if the misunderstanding can be cleared up, the scars left behind will not disappear.

"Ma Zhenren's condition...... What's wrong?" Yang Guo was worried about Ma Yu in his heart, so he didn't get too distracted on this matter, and directly turned the conversation back to the topic.

Qiu Chuji shook his head and said, "The situation is not very good. ”

Yang Guo couldn't help but feel anxious and asked, "Can I go and take a look?"

Qiu Chuji hesitated slightly, and then said, "It's okay to take a look." But be careful not to make a noise. ”

Yang Guo nodded in response.

The fifth son of Quan Zhen returned to the room with Yang Guo, and Qiu Chuji whispered to Yang Guo: "I just fell asleep, so you just have to look at it a few times." ”

Yang Guo walked to the couch, looked down at the futon, and only glanced at it. It was like being struck by thunder, and the whole person was stupid.

When he was in the Quanzhen Sect, although Ma Yu was old, he had been successful in cultivating for many years, his complexion was very ruddy, and he always seemed to be refreshed.

But goodbye after a farewell, Ma Yu is not only gray. And many of them fell off, became sparse, and their faces were no longer ruddy, showing a gray color.

These are not the things that shocked his soul, the most shocking thing for him was that Ma Yu's face seemed to have lost all blood, only a thin layer of flesh was wrapped outside, and the two eye sockets were deeply sunk downward. At first glance, it looks like seeing a skull on a skull.

If it weren't for the faint sound of breathing that could still be heard in his ears, the ** under the quilt would be almost no different from the dead.

A deep feeling of suffocation surged into Yang Guo's heart, making him so uncomfortable that he almost wanted to vomit blood and scream, he bit his lips tightly, but the tears couldn't be suppressed, and they flowed down in a hurry, crying silently.

The husband has tears and does not flick. It's just that I haven't reached the sad place.

At this time, the room was silent, only the sound of the wind whirring outside the window faintly came in through the window lattice, turning into a whining sound, as if choking intermittently.

The five sons of Quan Zhen saw Yang Guo sad. It's also like a blockage in my heart, and my eyes are moist.

Sun Buji wanted to step forward to comfort, but Qiu Chuji shook his head and said, "Just let him cry, just cry for a while." ”

Yang Guo's crying was not for a while, but after half an hour, he gradually stopped his tears, and only soaked the placket on his chest.

"Okay, let's go out and relax first, don't stay here too long. Qiu Chuji gently patted Yang Guo's shoulder and said.

Yang Guo hummed, and then went out of the room with Quan Zhen's five sons.

"You haven't used dinner yet, have you? go change your clothes first, and come over for some dinner later." Qiu Chuji said.

Yang Guo responded, bowed to the five sons of Quanzhen, and then went down to the palace with a Taoist boy.

Qiu Chuji looked at Yang Guo's back and couldn't help but sigh.

"Maybe we were wrong when we treated him like this. Wang Chuyi said.

He cried so heartbreaking just now, he couldn't fake it, but he was also a person who valued affection and gratitude. Sun Buji was most touched by her husband.

"It's a pity......" Hao Datong stopped after saying half a sentence, and he didn't know what it was a pity.

Yang Guo changed his clothes after washing, and when he came to the main hall again, there was already a wooden table in the hall, and the food had been placed on the table.

Originally, it was a little inappropriate to eat in the palace, but the five sons of Quanzhen didn't dare to stay away, for fear that Ma Yu would not be able to rescue after something happened, so he couldn't care so much.

The meal is a vegetarian meal, and the amount is relatively large, but the five sons of Quanzhen eat very little.

Yang Guo traveled hundreds of miles, he should have been hungry, and he didn't care about eating at this time, so he put down his chopsticks after drinking a bowl of porridge.

"Stay here tonight, the room has been cleaned up for you, it's still your old room. Qiu Chuji said.

Yang Guo remembered Li Zhichang's words, his heart warmed, and he nodded in agreement.
