Chapter 147: Beads

After Lu Yin left, Xu Chen stayed by the bedside, taking care of the little boy like his younger brother, which was a feeling he had never had, kind and kind.

Unconsciously, Xu Chen went to a faint place, so he fell asleep by the head of the bed, in his dreams, he dreamed of everything, everything about his own past, scene by scene.

It's a dream, but it's real, it's a dream, but it's all a real experience.

I don't know when, Xu Chen felt a cold in his hands, as if he had reached into an ice cellar, it was a kind of severe cold, which was unbearable.

"Ahh

With a little frightened, he opened his eyes, and the dazzling sunlight had already poured into the room, which was very warm, but Xu Chen suddenly felt that his left hand was still as cold as ever.

When he looked down, he found that the little guy was holding his left hand with his little hand, and looking at his left hand, which only had four fingers, the little boy was not afraid at all, and even felt curious.

It seems that everything about last night, the boy has forgotten.

"Are you awake?"

Xu Chen stroked the little boy's little head, "What's your name?"

Although Xu Chen had a smile on his face, he felt strange in his heart for the boy's cold little hands.

The boy blinked, he was very good-looking and cute, "Brother, my name is Tuoba Kaede." ”

"Tuoba?"

Xu Chen nodded slightly, this surname is the big surname of Beiqiang, "Could it be that you are the royal family of Beiqiang?"

The little boy hurriedly shook his head, "No, I heard my mother say that my father is Han, but the royal family of Beiqiang gave my father's surname of the royal family, and my surname is Tuoba in this way." ”

"And what was your last name?"

Xu Chen asked with a smile.

I saw the little boy keep shaking his head, "I don't know, I was born with this name." ”

As he spoke, Tuoba Kaede's little face became solemn, as if remembering the past.

In order not to make him too sad, Xu Chen quickly diverted the topic, "Oh, in this way, are you hungry?"

"Well, a little. ”

Tuoba Feng nodded embarrassedly.

Xu Chen smiled slightly and said softly: "Then you wait for a while, ah!"

After speaking, Xu Chen turned around and left, he walked straight to the kitchen, took a lot of ready-made desserts, and came back with a bowl of porridge.

The servants in the family all looked at the eldest young master with strange eyes, because they didn't believe that their eldest young master would eat so much, and they all thought that Xu Chen had suffered a lot outside?

Back in the room, Xu Chen put the food on the table, then picked up the little guy and put it on the chair next to the table.

It's just that, I don't know why, Tuoba Feng's body is very soft, as if it has no bones, and of course, it is also very weak.

Watching the little guy eat in a big gulp, Xu Chen laughed unconsciously, forgetting to eat himself, "Hey, Xiaofeng, don't worry, I won't rob you, ah, tell my brother, why is your body so weird, I remember you were okay last night?"

Tuoba Feng shook his head while eating, "I don't know, my body has always been like this, they say that I have a strange disease that can't be cured." ”

"Can't be cured?"

Xu Chen shook his head slightly, but did not speak, because since he met Wuchan and Lu Yin, especially after meeting Xuanwei Zhenren, he was sure that there was no disease in this world that could not be cured, only doctors who could not be cured.

Although the cultivation of the two old men last night was very high, in Xu Chen's opinion, they were still a big step behind Xuanwei Zhenren.

Tuoba Feng smiled at Xu Chen while eating, as if he had found a long-lost relative, "Brother, I seem to know you." ”

Xu Chen smiled and glanced at him, "Of course, didn't we know each other last night, and you scared me." ”

As he spoke, Xu Chen scratched the bridge of Tuoba Feng's nose.

Tuoba Feng hurriedly shook his head, "No, I mean, I've known each other before." ”

"Knew each other before?"

Xu Chen almost laughed, "Little guy, your illness is really not light." ”

After a slight pause, he continued, "Eat, I'll take you to someone when you're done, ah, I think he can cure you." ”

The boy didn't speak, he seemed to be really hungry, and kept taking big bites.

After breakfast, Xu Chen took Tuoba Feng's little hand and walked out of the room, he didn't want to take the little guy to see his father, but to meet the master.

Under the eyes of the servants in the family, Xu Chen walked out of the gate of the Xu Mansion with Tuoba Feng.

When the swordsman guarding the door saw Tuoba Feng beside Xu Chen, they all showed a look of surprise, and said in their hearts, when did this guy come in?

However, because of their identity, the two swordsmen didn't ask much, so they watched the two get on the horse.

Xu Chen put Tuoba Feng in front of him, gently took the reins, and the horse galloped out, and Tuoba Feng on the horse was not afraid at all.

Out of Yong'an Town, the horses galloped all the way, and that direction was the camp thirty miles away.

After coming to the temporary camp, Xu Chen took Tuoba Feng to Lu Yin's camp.

Seeing Xu Chen coming with Tuoba Feng, Lu Yin was obviously a little surprised.

"Xu Chen, what are you doing here?

"Oh, no!"

Xu Chen bowed, "Master, that's the case, I found that this little guy's body is a little weak, so I want you to take him as an apprentice, I believe that even if cultivation can't cure his illness, it can be improved after all." ”

However, when Xu Chen finished speaking, Lu Yin shook his head firmly, "Impossible, I said, you are the last apprentice in my life, how can I accept it again?"

"No, that's ......"

Xu Chen just wanted to explain.

But seeing Lu Yin shook his head again, "I said no, it's not good, do you know who he is, what is his origin? I don't know, how can I accept it? Besides, no matter what, he is from Beiqiang." ”

"Not really. ”

Xu Chen hurriedly explained, "His father is Han. ”

"Huh!"

Lu Yin waved his hand, picked up a cup of tea on the long table, and took a sip, "I said, if you don't accept it, you won't accept it, but since you said that it was to treat him, then it would be good for you to teach him to practice, why did you come to me?"

"Yes, I don't worship him as a teacher!

Unexpectedly, Tuoba Feng said such a thing seriously and cutely.

Although he was still a child, Lu Yin's face was pulled down in an instant, and it was always uncomfortable to be disliked by others.

"Look, people don't want to, what do you care? ”

At this time, Lu Yin and Tuoba Feng looked at each other, like enemies who had not been seen for a long time.

Xu Chen was stunned for a long time, and finally walked out of the tent with Tuoba Feng.

At this moment, an excited voice came from a distance, "Hey, did I say that the master accepted it?"

Xu Chen looked at the voice, only to see that it was Chu Yang who walked over slowly, speaking of which, Lu Yin was really his master, although he didn't teach him the art of runes, but even if he taught the Four Books and Five Classics, he should be regarded as a master that night.

Xu Chen shook his head, "How do you know." ”

I saw Chu Yang coming step by step, with a smug smile on his face, "Here, how can there be anything I don't know, how, have you accepted it?"

Looking at a guard behind Chu Yang, Xu Chen seemed to understand everything, shook his head slightly, and said, "No! But the master said that I can teach him the way of cultivation, then I will teach him." ”

As he spoke, he glanced back at the tent behind him, once to show his dissatisfaction.

However, what puzzled Xu Chen was that Tuoba Feng actually said softly: "Brother, I don't practice, I don't want to practice." ”

At that moment, Chu Yang and Xu Chen looked at this child together, and said in their hearts, I don't know how many people want to practice in this world, why don't you want to?

......

On the long stone steps, Chu Yang, Xu Chen, and Tuoba Feng sat side by side from high to low. Everyone bowed their heads silently, looking more like a landscape from a distance.

Suddenly, Chu Yang suddenly got up and picked up Tuoba Feng's little head, and said affectionately: "Little guy, let's practice with this brother, okay." ”

"Why?"

"Alas!" Chu Yang lowered his head helplessly again, this is the seventeenth time, the same prayer, the same answer, as the crown prince, he only came to persuade Xu Chen at his request, otherwise, how could he be in this mood?

After a pause, he continued: "Then what can you do here? I didn't listen to your brother Xu Chen, you are seriously ill now. ”

"I just want to live a normal life. "I remembered the last words my mother said to him, and the last words my grandfather said to him.

"That's right, cultivation is to live well. Chu Yang hurriedly replied.

"What can you do with cultivation?"

The little guy has his head up and his innocent eyes open, which is so cute.

"This can strengthen the body and compete with the sky. It can also cure your illness. Chu Yang gestured.

"Why do you want to live so long?"

Tuoba Feng asked innocently, "My mother once said that I can't live that long, there is no hope, my mother said that I can only live to be ten years old in this life." ”

"You can earn recognition, fame, power. ”

Chu Yang may have rushed to the doctor because he was ill, so he actually moved all these things out.

"What do you want to do?"

Tuoba Feng asked again.

"You can slay demons and protect your loved ones. ”

Chu Yang clenched his fists and said.

"I ...... I don't have any relatives anymore. ”

Who would have thought that Tuoba Feng's expression became sad, and the grief of an ordinary person can make people feel very pity, let alone a child who is only five years old.

Hearing this, Chu Yang was blown up, and slowly returned to his position, "Look, I'll just say no, this kid is really a genius." ”

This is obviously a kind of self-deprecation, but Xu Chen smiled slightly, helplessly.

He turned around and looked at Tuoba Feng and said softly, "Xiao Feng, why did your mother say that you can only live to be ten years old?"

"I don't know!"

Tuoba Feng pouted innocently, but, after a pause, he seemed to remember something, he slowly lifted the collar, and then pulled out a bead-like thing from the neckline, crystal clear, "Maybe it has something to do with this." ”

At that moment, Xu Chen was obviously stunned, he stretched out two fingers and gently picked up the bead, which had a thin blood streak in it, which was swimming slowly.
