The Melancholy of the National Teacher

Helian Yu's expression cracked.

"...Mother?"

He never imagined that one day he would be associated with the word mother. For a man on the prairie—even a man with a quiet personality—it could be called an insult.However, He Lianyu himself didn't realize that his endurance in front of Le Dao was much better than in front of that high hall, so he didn't lose his temper in a hurry, but carefully pondered what Le Dao said.

"Master Le Fourth's mother is a barbarian?"

The reason for saying this is to appreciate Helian Yu's face-changing Le Dao, who withdrew his interested eyes, "It's not considered a barbarian, it's just a barbarian's blood, Yungu Kingdom and Qinglu are close, and there are many people of mixed blood... ...I don't even remember what she looks like, I just remember her emerald eyes."

Helen Yu was silent.

In fact, in the past few years, when he heard other people talking about Le Dao, he would be distracted to listen, so he still understands Le Dao's situation.The young master who ranks fourth in the family's father is Yungu Legong, and his mother is just a beautiful maidservant raised by the Le family who is good at singing and dancing. It is said that Le Dao died when he was five or six years old, precisely because Le Dao did not have a mother's family Such things as power were sent to Tianjing City by Mr. Le Hao as a proton.

It's not very good to talk about the dead, Helian Yu didn't answer, but Le Dao started talking non-stop.

"It's really similar to you. I often see her sitting by the window sill, looking out of the window in a daze. She can stay motionless for a whole day. You are the same. Last time I climbed higher than others, I climbed from the outer wall of the star platform. Going up, I happened to see you sitting in a place full of letters from the window, holding the book motionless, and speaking in a tone of voice, hey, my mother has nothing to do with Helian, right?"

"My family is not rich in children, so it shouldn't matter."

"Pfft, I'm talking nonsense, don't answer so seriously."

Ledao smiled.

Helian Yu stared at him silently until he couldn't stop laughing.

"Then what," Le Dao began to change the subject, "Have you not soaked yet?"

He was referring to his arm that was still submerged in the pool water at the moment. Helianyu, who was a little angry, glanced at the wound, and his little anger disappeared immediately. He shook his head and asked him to soak for a while in a low voice. Get up, walk out of the valley along the narrow path you came in before.

"Hey, those people must still be looking for us?" Le Dao shouted, "What are you doing?"

"Burns are easy to attract external evils into the body," the black-haired, white-clothed and blue-eyed little witch looked back at him expressionlessly, "I saw a few herbal medicines outside just now that can be used, don't worry, those people's hounds are affected. Injury, they can't catch up without the hounds."

It made sense, Le Dao could only wave goodbye to him.

It was almost noon at this moment, and Master Le Si waited until the sun began to set to the west before he heard a voice from the other side of the narrow passage. Holding the big knife in his uninjured hand, he took a step back and retreated behind a huge blue rock by the pool. , staring at the entrance vigilantly, and only when he realized that it was Helian Yu who came back, did he sit back beside Tan Shui again.

"You're so slow... Huh?"

Helian Yu who came back changed her outfit.

He took off his white coat, and untied the headband that tied his hair. There was a bunch of flowers and plants in the white coat, and two chickens... domestic chickens were tied to the hairband.

Where did the chickens come from on Peach Blossom Mountain?

"I picked it up from a group of young masters having a picnic on the mountain." Helian Yu said.

Today, apart from His Royal Highness, there were Second Highness and Third Highness who went out of the palace together. These three people each brought people loyal to them, and they walked in different directions after getting off the carriage. Le Dao remembered that it should be the three who brought people to Peach Blossom Mountain for a picnic. Your Highness, as for those who brought the chickens, they should be the servants of those young masters.

The Tangtang Yun's Third Highness would not trouble them because of a chicken, Helian Yu and Le Dao had the same idea.

Moreover, Le Dao found that this Prince Qinglu, who had a quiet personality like a little lady, was more to his liking than he imagined.

Speaking of this, I have to mention the reason why Le Dao appeared on the carriage before.A few years ago, he worshiped Gao Qipei, the Great Army God, as his teacher, and has been sitting under Gao Qipei to learn how to use soldiers.The Great Army God Gao Qipei is a female general, and she was the commander used by Guanghong Emperor Yun Zhufeng to conquer the Qinglu Grassland.It's a pity that Emperor Guanghong was assassinated and killed by an assassin when he returned from victory. Even the great witch Zaoshuang, who accompanied the army, was nowhere to be found. In the end, he was lightly punished and demoted to civilians, and he was not allowed to join the army for life.Now Gao Qipei doesn't come out of his house every day, and his mother's love can only be sprinkled on the only disciple.

Le Dao, like Helian Yu, was kicked out by the teacher on the grounds of finding a friend.

Originally, Le Dao was too lazy to look for friends, but now he looks at him, the barbarian boy in front of him is not bad.

This time there was a way to do business, he happily took over the chicken, washed the snatched big knife in the pool, and began to shave the chicken, while Helian Yu glanced at him occasionally, and his hand was Find a few flat stones and grind the herbs slowly.

Before the chicken was finished roasting, Helian Yu smeared an arm of herbal paste on Le Dao's burned arm.

Le Dao thought that after the big pile of herbal mud dried up, his hands would definitely not be able to move.

"Is your barefoot doctor really okay?" Le Dao asked.

Helian Yu was tearing his outer shirt into cloth strips and tying them up for him. Compared with the useless witchcraft and the medicinal method that he was evaluated as useless by Le Dao, this bandaging work was really beautiful. The patterns formed by the overlapping of cloth strips are neat and tidy, so beautiful that Le Dao couldn't bear to take them off.

Forget it, he thought, this medicine paste is cool after coming up, it should be of some use, and it will be fine to go to the doctor after going down the mountain tomorrow.

The two of them have already agreed to go down the mountain tomorrow, because there are rules for these young masters in Tianjing City to compete, if His Highness can't find them this day, he can't bring up this matter in the future.Le Dao, who was gnawing on the delicious beggar chicken, didn't care about the burn, but only thought about whether Yunxuan's group of people were tired tonight, whether he should "play" with them.

This attitude of not taking burns seriously is unacceptable, or in other words, he shouldn't have so much confidence in Helian Yu's herbal mud.

After the sun sank into the West Cang Sea, Le Dao felt very impatient with Helian Yu repeatedly asking him if he was not feeling well, so he slept on the ground with his pillow on his outer robe and closed his eyes to rest.As he expected, Helian Yu couldn't do something like get an answer if he couldn't disturb his rest.He hummed triumphantly in his heart, but he didn't realize that the exhaustion was covering his whole body without any trace.

Helianyu, who was dispensing medicine by himself for the first time, was much more nervous than him. The little witch in white was sitting by the campfire, and glanced at Le Dao from time to time, so he quickly noticed something was wrong.

What happened to the blush on Le Dao boy's face?

With a bad heart, he leaned over and tried the temperature of Le Dao's forehead with the back of his hand. The hot feeling almost startled him.

"Oops……"

The external evil still entered the body.

Burn patients often have this kind of symptoms, Helian Yu told himself to calm down, he has prepared herbal medicine.

Find some kind of grass blade with wide leaves on the mountain wall, fold it into the shape of a pot, and put it on the campfire with water. There are many things that are often boiled on the fire with a sheepskin on a water stand. He Lianyu is quite experienced. After several hours of scrambling, he took this pot of concoction and fed it with another spoon-shaped leaf. medicine.

"Master Le Fourth, open your mouth." Helian Yu said.

"Mother……"

Helian Yu frowned, "Master Le Fourth?"

"Mother……"

This is a rare and fragile gesture for Le Dao, Helian Yu stared at Le Dao who was burning with nonsense, something flickered in his blue eyes.

After a while, he rested Le Dao's head on his lap, deliberately lowered his voice to create a feminine softness.

"Good boy... Well, I drank the medicine."

The good boy stopped talking nonsense, but he didn't open his mouth either.

Helian Yu: "..."

He silently squeezed Le Dao's mouth open and poured the concoction into it.

Feeding half and sprinkling half, the process of feeding the medicine did not end smoothly without any warm atmosphere, but for Helian Yu this night, there was still no rest.In the middle of the night, Le Dao's forehead that had already cooled down heated up again, and he developed a high fever. After using various methods, Helian Yu found that he couldn't do anything except wait.

When it was almost dawn, he absent-mindedly hummed the nursery rhymes that his mother used to hum to him when he was young, and his eyes fell on the peach blossom tree on the mountain wall.

If he has the ability, he can directly use healing witchcraft, and he is not afraid of small burns and fever from external evils.

But he didn't.

...This is really, extremely detestable, a pathetic sense of powerlessness.

When Le Dao woke up the next day, he felt sticky all over his body.He sweated a lot when he had a fever, but he didn't know it, because when the sun and red clouds began to appear in the east, the high temperature on his body had subsided.

He was shocked to find his head on Helian Yu's lap.

When he jumped up awkwardly, he felt some pain and soreness in his body, but he thought it was from sleeping on the floor.

"Did you hum the song last night?" He quickly put the embarrassment behind him and asked Helian Yu, "I had a dream. At first I thought it was my mother singing, but then I thought it was your voice .”

After staying up all night, the extremely haggard Helian Yu looked up at him.

Instead of answering Le Dao's question, he brought up another completely unrelated topic, "Master Le Si, I have a question to ask, if there is a way to gain power, but this power has many disadvantages, you Will you go to gain this power?"

"Huh?" Le Dao turned his head, "Why do you suddenly ask such a strange question, Your Highness Yu?"

Helian Yu stared at him intently, his blue eyes were like spring rippling in the morning sun, Le Dao once again admired the beauty of these eyes in his heart, but he also admired Helian Yu's The question is a little more serious.

"What's the problem with gaining power?" he said, "This is the way of the world. People with power step on the bones of people without power to survive. If they want to survive, they must be stronger. As for whether power is good or bad... Is power good or bad? Only people are good or bad.”

When talking, Le Dao stood against the sunlight, the morning sun elongated his shadow, and the shadow just included Helian Yu.

The pale Helian Yu laughed.

"You're right." Keeping his kneeling posture, the little witch in white bowed down to Le Dao, "Master Le Fourth is so kind and virtuous, it's hard to forget, dare I ask, can you give me a bell?"

Ledao widened his eyes.

The bell is the contract between the lord and the witch, and the meaning of asking for the bell is that Helian Yu is asking if he can follow him.

Then Helian Yu was mercilessly rejected by Le Dao.

Yi Ledao currently only wants friends, not an excuse for subordinates.

Twenty-four years later, recalling this very important turning point in his life, Da'an Guoshi smiled and said to the emperor of Da'an: "When will you call me mother again?"

"...Did I really yell like that?" Le Dao, who couldn't remember what he was talking nonsense when he had a fever 24 years ago, stared blankly.

It was already evening at this moment, and the emperor and the national teacher in Qinglu Yunping were reminiscing about the past.And thousands of miles away, in Dongchu County shrouded in night, in an inconspicuous small fishing village on the rugged coastline of Donghanhai, a certain former great prince who appeared in Helian Yu's memory, or in other words, since 21 years ago, Dongchu The Chu army broke through the city of Tianjing. As the only surviving son of the Yun family from the previous dynasty, Yun, who had been in exile, casually took clean clothes and walked into a cave on the rocky coast.

There is a lake in the cave.

Even if dozens of whale oil candles were lit on the wet wall, the darkness in the cave could not be dispelled. Yun Xun walked to the lake in fear, and shouted in a low voice, "Master of the State? Are you okay? Lord of the State—" —”

Only the sound of splashing water was heard, and a person floated out of the dark lake.

This person was motionless, looking like a floating corpse. There were large areas of bright red muscles exposed on his body, as if the epidermis had rotted away. The next moment, the bright red color was covered by pale skin, and the person opened his eyes.

He has snow hair, snow skin, red eyes.

Xue Manpo came back to life again.
